2 GEORGETOWN METALLOGENIC STUDY INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES FUNDED BY GEOLOGICAL SURVEY OF QUEENSLAND REVITALISE EXPLORATION IN GEORGETOWN REGION THROUGH UPDATED METALLOGENIC DATABASE AND MODEL FOR REGION STUDY UPDATED WITH RECENT EXPLORATION DATA, AGE DATING, MULTI-ELEMENT GEOCHEMISTRY AND IMPROVED UNDERSTANDING OF MINERAL DEPOSITS IN NORTH QUEENSLAND
3 WORK COMPLETED IN THE 2017 QUARTZ TEXTURES STUDY 1. COLLECTION SAMPLES OF QUARTZ ASSOCIATED WITH MINZ TO STUDY TEXTURES, STYLE OF MINZ AND CONDITIONS UNDER WHICH QUARTZ FORMED 2. MINES AND MINERAL OCCURRENCES WITH A COMMON ORIGIN GROUPED INTO CAMPS 3. REPORT PREPARED INCLUDING A DATABASE AND METALLOGENIC MAPS FOR THE REGION
4 GEORGETOWN QUARTZ TEXTURES 133 historical mines inspected and sampled Most mineral deposits in Georgetown region possess quartz as a gangue to mineralisation Morphology and texture of quartz are a good indicator of conditions under which quartz and associated mineralisation was formed Quartz textures indicative of origin Mines and mineral occurrences with a common origin grouped into Camps

7 COMMON QUARTZ STYLES FOUND IN ETHERIDGE PROVINCE BRECCIATED EUHEDRAL BUCK PLUTONIC HYPOZONAL COARSE COMB QUARTZ PLUTONIC HYPOZONAL INTRUSION RELATED MESOZONAL INTRUSION RELATED EPIZONAL FINE COMB SACCHAROIDAL AND SILICA-SULFIDE
8 QUARTZ TEXTURES OF PLUTONIC DEPOSITS Gold Bearing quartz Quartz textures indicative of the Plutonic mineralising environment were most common; 101 of the 133 deposits visited. Sheared Host rock lode Often hosted in steep dipping shears or lodes cutting Proterozoic granite and metamorphic rocks. Lodes can be of significant size; i.e. km s length and 10 s metres width; however individual quartz veins tend to be irregular or lenticular in shape and rarely exceed 50 cm thickness and 20 m length. This is due to irregular development of tensional zones during fault movement, brittleness of host rocks and deformation by later fault movement.
9 QUARTZ TEXTURE ASSEMBLAGES AND CAMP DEFINITION CODES DEFINED FOR EACH QUARTZ TEXTURE AND DEFORMATION FEATURE INDIVIDUAL DEPOSITS ASSIGNED CODES BASED ON ORDER OF ABUNDANCE MINERAL DEPOSITS WITH SIMILAR CODES OCCURRING IN SAME AREA GROUPED INTO CAMPS 51 CAMPS DEFINED IN GEORGETOWN FORSAYTH GILBERTON REGION 32 PLUTONIC, 15 INTRUSION RELATED AND 4 EPITHERMAL CAMPS IN REGION

19 CLASSIFICATION OF DEPOSITS BY QUARTZ TEXTURE MAP SHOWING DISTRIBUTION OF THREE MAIN DEPOSIT TYPES IDENTIFIED THROUGH THE GEORGETOWN, FORSAYTH AND GILBERTON AREAS: EPITHERMAL INTRUSION RELATED PLUTONIC
20 DISTRIBUTION OF MINE CAMPS BY QUARTZ TEXTURE Mining districts of Georgetown and Forsayth are dominated by Devonian Plutonic Hypozonal and Mesozonal style deposits, lesser Intrusion Related and few Epithermal. Zoning from deeper to shallower level away from centres of each plutonic districts. The Carboniferous Intrusion-Related and Permian Epithermal Camps are partly overprinting but mainly peripheral to the Plutonic camps and localised by volcanic to sub-volcanic complexes and regional lineaments Quartz texture assemblages are a useful tool for deposit classification, especially in conjunction with multi-element geochemistry
