Abstract:
This investigation integrates regional bedrock mapping, stratigraphic and structural analyses, geochronology, plutonic and volcanic geochemistry, and isotopic analyses to document the regional geological frame work and to provide a first-order assessment of the economic mineral potential in the area.
