Geological maps of the Coleman Mine (A) and Creighton Mine (B) areas, highlighting the relationship between the footwall lithologies and SIC melt sheet. Discontinuous zones of Sudbury Breccia are ubiquitous throughout the footwall and are not shown. The outlines of the Cu-Ni-PGE ore zones have been projected to the surface. At Creighton, the distal sample sites Old Creighton Town and South Pump Lake are also shown (modified after Ames et al. 2008). Ore bodies are outlined in red and projected to surface. Faults are depicted by dashed black lines.

(A) Mg–Fe–Ni substitution series in chlorite from the Coleman Mine, displaying two distinct groups. Distal (orange, green) are chlorite pseudomorphs of biotite. Chlorite within mineralized zones is type-1 (red) and type-2 (purple). (B) Octahedral vacancy chlorite geothermometer, demonstrating the difference in formation temperature in distal towards proximal chlorite. Chlorite adjacent to type-1 veins: red area; adjacent to type-2 veins: blue area.

Plane-polarized thin-section images demonstrating the variation in mineral species. From the Coleman Mine, (A) chlorite replacing biotite, with later, dark red-brown biotite overprinting. This is accompanied by (B) titanite exsolution lamellae in chlorite and (C) an XPL image of a radial, Ni-bearing species of chlorite amongst sulfides. At the Creighton Mine (D) fibrous actinolite in distal breccia matrix is replaced by (E) prismatic zoned and (F) anhedral, blue-green, pleochroic varieties closer to sulfide zones. Compare this to the amphibole clusters at Coleman Mine (G) that replaced earlier pyroxene.

Backscattered SEM images of two forms of titanite observed at each mine locality. At the Coleman Mine, titanite is present as a reaction rim on ilmenite-magnetite grains (left), whereas at the Creighton Mine the titanite is primarily an anhedral, subtly zoned overprint on pre-existing biotite (right). Abbreviations: titanite – Tttn; ilmenite – Ilm; magnetite – Mag; allanite – All; chalcopyrite – Cpy.

A cross-section through a footwall ore system (in this case, based upon the McCreedy 153 East ore body at the Coleman Mine). The cross-section demonstrates the variation from contact-hosted ore zones, through to the type-2 and LSHPM styles found deeper in the footwall system (modified after Lightfoot 2015). At the Creighton Mine there is a similar transition from contact to footwall-hosted ore systems, although there is no type-2 mineralization documented at the mine and the ore zones are crosscut by several faults.

(A) Calcic amphibole classification scheme from Leake et al. (1997) demonstrating the difference between amphibole cores (blue) and rims (green) and the similarity between the latter and amphiboles in mineralized zones (red) at the Creighton Mine. The grey area represents amphibole from the Coleman Mine. (B) Titanite analyses from the Creighton Mine exhibiting the increased Al + Fe content from distal samples, ∼0.5–1 km from the embayment (blue), to samples within the Creighton Deep zone (red).

(A) A typical Sudbury breccia outcrop from close to the Creighton Mine exhibiting a dark grey, very fine-grained matrix hosting rounded clasts of locally derived host lithologies. (B) A sharp-walled sulfide vein from the Fraser Mine (adjacent to the Coleman Mine) in the North Range. The vein transitions from type-1 (chalcopyrite-dominant) to type-2 (bornite-dominant). The thin, dark grey-green alteration selvage can be seen adjacent to the vein. The host lithology is felsic gneiss with Sudbury Breccia (yellow arrow). Photo (B) courtesy of Dave Richardson.

Biotite from Coleman (open circles) and Creighton (filled circles) Mines with proximity to ore from distal to mineralized samples (blue-green-yellow-red). (A) Mg/Fe in chlorite and biotite, displaying the inherited geochemistry of replacement chlorite compared with coexisting biotite. (B) Tl/Rb versus Ni/Cr in biotite shows a relative increase in Tl content in mineralized samples, although the signature is reduced at the Creighton Mine. (C) Ni–Cu–Cr ternary plot demonstrating increased Ni/Cr towards ore, whereas Cu results are more scattered. (D) Whole-rock geochemical data for the Creighton Mine demonstrating the decreasing Rb values with proximity to mineralization that may reflect increasing Tl substitution in biotite over K, Rb, and Ce.
