Australian Proterozoic Mineral Systems: Essential Ingredients and Mappable CriteriaBy C A Heinrich, Jaques A. L, L A I Wyborn
Most orebodies have cross-sections of less than I km2 and hence do not offer a particularly large target for exploration. Fortunately, although in the geological record ore deposits are small and rare
