The Aguablanca Ni–Cu–(PGE) Sulfide Deposit

Abstract

The Aguablanca Ni--Cu sulfide mineralization occurs in form of a poorly exposed subvertical mineralized breccia in the northern part of the Aguablanca stock, near to the sedimentary host rocks. The mineralized breccia consists of unmineralized (or very weakly mineralized) mafic-ultramafic fragments embedded in a variably mineralized matrix.
