This book is written by a leading authority on the subject of magmatic sulfide deposits. An overview of deposit types, accompanied by a summary of the resources of nickel, copper and platinum-group elements in the world’s principal known deposits, is followed by a summary of the relevant physical chemistry. The core of the book comprises a discussion about the geology and geochemistry of each of the deposit types in turn, accompanied by the implications of this data to the origin of the deposits in the light of our understanding of the chemical processes involved. A final chapter focuses on the use of the genetic concepts in exploration.

First excavated in the early 1950s, the Sheguiandah site had remained enigmatic for half a century. This volume details controversial early claims that the site had been occupied before the last Ice Age, then covers more recent studies of the geological and botanical history of the area – including new evidence that the site was uninhabited until after the retreat of the glaciers.
