AbstractMagnetite-rich iron oxide copper-gold deposits (IOCGs) are geologically and geochemically complex and present major challenges to geophysical investigation. They often sit beneath significant cover, exhibit magnetic remanence, and suffer from self-demagnetization effects. Because remanence in magnetite-bearing drill core samples is commonly overprinted by drilling, in situ natural remanent magnetization is difficult to measure accurately, and thus IOCGs cannot be modeled definitively using geophysics alone. We examined structural controls on a magnetite-rich IOCG in northwest Queensland and the relationships between structure, alteration, Fe oxides, and mineralization at core to deposit scale. Magnetite within the deposit has a multidomain structure, and thus it would commonly have an in situ magnetization parallel to the earth’s field. In contrast, pyrrhotite has a pseudosingle-domain structure and so it is the predominant carrier of stable remanence within the ore system. Geophysical lineament a...

A major geophysical experiment has begun in the Capricorn Orogen in Western Australia. Orogen-scale passive seismic and magnetotelluric surveys are on-going and preliminary results suggest have successfully delineated the base of the crust and major structures and tectonic boundaries. Airborne electromagnetic data have successfully mapped features in the near-surface such as palaeovalleys. The integration of the different geophysical datasets with each other and with parallel geological studies are intended to lead to a better understanding the Capricorn Orogen and develop exploration approaches and appropriate toolkits that significantly improve our ability to prospect under cover.
