註釋Despite the well-documented 60-year history of major gold production from the world-class Nickel Plate mine in B.C., precious metal enriched (PME) skarns have only recently been recognized as a distinct class of skarn deposit. This paper is the result of studies that involved geological mapping of some selected skarn camps, extensive literature research and various laboratory studies, including whole-rock and trace element analyses, petrographic examination of sulphide and calc-silicate assemblages, and electron microprobe analyses of various garnet and pyroxene mineral phases associated with the skarn alteration. The report gives relevant data on the proven and potential PME skarns in B.C. and outlines their various characteristics, including distribution, mineralogy, geochemistry, geological controls and classification.
