...I. CARTWRIGHT; N. H. S. OLIVER Abstract Marbles adjacent to the Burstall granite, Mary Kathleen, Australia, record up-temperature fluid flow during contact metamorphism. These fluids were water-rich and probably partially derived from devolatilization reactions. By contrast, Fe-rich skarns closer...

... mineralization in metasedimentary rocks of the host Corella Formation. Widespread high-temperature contact metasomatism and skarn formation related to the emplacement of the U-rich, 1,730-m.y. A-type Burstall Granite produced large volumes of banded calc-silicate skarn. An Sm-Nd age of 1,766 + or - 80 m.y...

... protracted fractionation. This enrichment makes granites a plausible passive source of U, provided that orogenic fluids can somehow interact with and extract metals from these typically impermeable rocks. Indeed, Oliver et al. (1999) suggested that leaching of the U-rich Burstall Granite (and/or adjacent...

...). The Burstall igneous event between 1755 and 1730 Ma resulted in incision of the Eastern Creek Volcanics in the west, to the mid-Myally subgroup in the central area, and part way through the Quilalar Formation in the east ( Blake, 1987 ; Jackson et al., 2002 ). By the end of the Burstall igneous event...

An early phase of U and REE enrichment is presumed to have occurred in the skarns, at or near the present orebody and related in time...
