Rock Model - NOT ROF Ore formation
“ The Sulphides have high PGE abundances, which could only be derived from a mass of Magma 200 times that of the host intrusions”
“This contamination resulted in the segregation of immiscible sulphide liquids in the upper zones of density stratified convecting layers that developed in the vertical chamber.
The sulphides continuously settled and reacted with fresh pulses of magma, drawing more Ni, Cu and PGE. In this way, sulphides grogressively richer in Ni, Cu and PGE settled in the lower zone of the vertical chamber.”
Just da way I see dat!
