- Summary:
-
This Report is a compilation of work done to date within CRC LEME on the hydrogeochemistry of theYilgarn Craton and its margins. The various sites can be grouped into three distinct regions: the Kalgoorlie Region Kalgoorlie region, which has acid and saline to hypersaline groundwaters; the Central region, at and immediately N of the Menzies line, which has variably saline and neutral groundwater; and the Northern region, which has neutral and mostly fresh groundwaters. These differences are reflected in trace element geochemistries, with Kalgoorlie groundwaters having high dissolved Au, base metals, REE and U but low oxy-anions (e.g., As, Sb, Mo, W, Tl, Bi), Central groundwaters having moderate dissolved Au and high oxy-anion concentrations, and Northern groundwaters having low Au, moderate oxy-anions and high V and P. Exploration strategies resulting from these observations are discussed, as are effects of transported overburden.
