4 iii SUMMARY OBJECTIVE 1 Synthesis of fault history on the west coast and its relationship to folding The programcalled for a studyof six regional sections which were representative of the Mount Read Volcanics and their environment. These sections have all been completed and reported separately, and an overview is included in this volume. In each section the fault history was recorded and the sections show the strong relationship between fold geometry and fault movement. The MtRamsay to MtCripps section was presented in Report 1 and emphasized the importance of the basingeometryincontrollingthe overall structure of western Tasmania. A revision of the section is included this volume. The Rosebery section is reported in this volume. The structures indicate a 50% shortening of the Mount Read Volcanics in the Devonian with substantial reactivation of the Cambrian normal faults. The section from Zeehan to Lake Selina is a composite of the four cross-sections shown in Report 3: 50, fig. 1. The section reported in this volume, has 37% shortening across the CVe. The Strahanto Victoria Pass section is complicated by the intense D 2 shear zone along the Linda Trend. The western segment (Report 4: 31-38) is south ofthe Linda Zone and is similar to the King River section. The eastern segmenthas been drawn over Mt Lyell (Report 3: 22-30) and emphasizes the east directed thrusting. The King River section was discussed in Report 4: The outstanding features are the intensity offaulting and the complex interaction between west-directed and east-directed thrusts. The regional sections in the Dundas Trough fall in to two classes. The three sections in the north are dominated by the Rosebery Fault. The two southern sections have more symmetric upright fold and fault patterns. The NW section across the Fossey Mountain Trough is reported in this volujile. The Fossey Trough hasan E-Wto WNW-ESE strikereflecting the trend of middle to late Cambriandeformation. The Cambrian structure has three distinct events. The first event was a middle Middle Cambrian extension associated withmassiveacid to intermediate marine volcanism. This event produced the major Cambrian mineralisation. Transferfaults active during the extension are spatially correlated with major ore deposits. The subsequent Delamerian orogeny produced E-W upright folds, locally overturned to the north, followed byn-trendingopen uprightfolds along thedundastroughduringowenconglomerate deposition. The Devonian orogeny caused reactivation of Cambrian folds. NNW striking cleavage transects these folds. Thrusts and high angle reverse faults in the Dundas Trough are syn- to post-kinematic with respect to the cleavage. Devoniangranites andgranite related mineralisation are late syn- to post- reverse faulting. The final regionally significant event produces WNW trending folds and thrusts in the south, and NW striking thrusts and associated folds in the north. Late brittle wrench faults are closely related to this event. A final phase of E-W compression was recognised locally. CODES: AMIRA Project P Structure and Mineralisation of Western Tasmania.

5 iv OBJECTIVE 2 Determinethe effect of Devonianfolding and faulting on Carnbrian ore bodies Two Cambrian ore deposits were studied with the aim to see how their geometry has been modified by the Devonian deformation. Atthe Rosebery mine, an imbricate array of Devonian reverse faults from m N(mine grid) have a combined displacement of 250 m. Restoration of the mine lenses allowed the recognition of a complex seafloor topography and syn-depositional fault patternwhich partlycontrolled the ore lens geometry. The section between the Glen Lyell Fault and the Mt Lyell ore deposit is a continuous east facing sequence. The structure is a consistent steep dip to the east cut by numerous sub-vertical west side up faults. The major disseminated ore bodies of Prince Lyell, WesternTharsis, etc. are sub-parallel to bedding. The Prince Lyell style ofdisseminated mineralisation is located close to the top of the evc and just north of a Cambrian transfer fault. The regional pattern of syn-dwen unconformities has defined a Late Cambrian NNW folding pattern where Owen depocentres occupy the synclines. The North Lyell mineralisation is pre- to syn Devonian F I folds. The high grade ore is the result of metamorphogenic remobilisation of low grade disseminated Cambrian mineralisation. OBJECTIVE 3 Structural control on Devonian vein systems The North Farrell and New North Farrell mines are Devonian vein style mineralisation related to granite intrusion. The veins are hosted in intensely faulted slates in the footwall to the Henty Fault. The major controls on vein geometry are fault intersections both in plan and section. The veins are late syn- to postreverse faulting. Dilation is related to kink folds and Riedel shears. OBJECTIVE 4 Recognition of Cambrian extensional fault patterns and their significance for exploration A regional review of Cambrian extensional fault geometry in Dundas Trough was produced. Three type of faults were recognised: western bounding normal faults, regional scale normal faults within the Dundas Trough, and transfer faults. There is a strong spatial correlation of major Cambrian ore deposits with the transfer faults recognised in this study with three major deposits located on the northern margins of these structures. A total of 13 transfer faults have been recognised or inferred over the length of the Dundas Trough. All the aims of the project have been met. The structural history determined has been tested over a large part of Western Tasmania and produces a workable structural synthesis. The Rosebery structural study has resolved many anomalies in the mine and produced an overview with some exploration significance. Several ofthe major controversies of the Mt Lyell field have been addressed and it is now possible to correlate structures with discrete events and place the mineralising events in their correct context. A studyof the NorthFarrell mines supported earlier conclusions that this deposit is a Devonian granite-related vein system and provided additional detail on the nature of the fault controlled dilation. The geometry of the Cambrian extension which controlled VHMS formation has been defined over the Dundas Trough. This geometry has several significant features for exploration. Inparticular, there is a strong spatial association of economic mineralisation with transfer faults.
