1.. IntroductionConfinement of nickel sulphide (NiS) ore shoots to depressions or trough structures in the Archaean Kambalda Komatiite Formation–Lunnon Basalt Formation contact, Kambalda (Western Australia) has been interpreted to reflect primary controls on sulphide deposition (Lesher, 1983, Lesher et al., 1984) and …

WhatsApp: +86 18221755073Abstract The Kambalda nickel sulphide deposits are located in the 2700 Ma Eastern Goldfields Greenstone Belt, Yilgarn Craton, Western Australia. The main lithologies are basalts and komatiites. Nickel sulphide ore occurs within the komatiite at the contact with the underlying basalt. This contact is structurally complex, the result of several phases of …
