MONTANA DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY, and TINTINA MONTANA INC.; Defendants. INTRODUCTION 1. Plaintiffs Montana Trout Unlimited, Montana Environmental Information Center, Trout Unlimited, Earthworks, and American Rivers (collectively, “Plaintiffs”) challenge the Montana Department of Environmental Quality’s (“DEQ”) approval of Tintina Montana Inc.’s (“Tintina”) permit application for the Black Butte Copper Mine, a major copper mining project proposed in the Smith River watershed of west-central Montana. The Smith River is one of Montana’s premier recreational rivers due to its spectacular natural beauty and abundant wild trout populations. 2. Tintina’s proposed mine would excavate about 440 tons of concentrated copper ore every day in the Smith River watershed. Over the life of the project, these mining activities would generate an estimated 12.9 million tons of tailings and nearly one million tons of waste rock and pollute waters within the Smith River watershed with metals and acid-generating minerals that are harmful or lethal to aquatic life. 3. DEQ is the agency charged with permitting mining activity under the Metal Mine Reclamation Act (“MMRA”), MCA § 82-4-301 et seq., and evaluating the environmental impacts of proposed mining activities under the Montana Environmental Policy Act (“MEPA”), MCA § 75-1-101 et seq.

  • A Novel Conceptual Model of Intrusion Related Gold Bearing Systems And
    Studia UBB Geologia, 2020, 63 (1), 1 – 12 A novel conceptual model of intrusion related gold bearing systems and exploration tools Eugen Orlandea1 & Şerban-Nicolae Vlad2 1Ferdomin SpA, Calle Almirante Latorre, 151, 1530000, Copiapo, Atacama, Chile 2Babeş-Bolyai University, Department of Geology, Kogălniceanu 1, 400084 Cluj-Napoca, Romania Received: May 2019; accepted February 2020 Available online 11 February 2020 DOI: https://doi.org/10.5038/1937-8602.63.1.1304 Abstract. Despite numerous debates conducted in the last two decades, the concept of intrusion related gold systems IRGS remains controversial and sometimes befuddling. The key issue drifts from case to case, i.e., initial to subsequent proposed classifications, presence of gold in reduced fluids-porphyritic environments, non-porphyry gold in orogenic terrains and participation of non-magmatic gold fluids in depositional processes. Trying to avoid atypical or particular aspects of certain deposits, a genuine metallogenetic depiction intends to enhance the intrusion related systems meaning. Gold is either a major constituent or a mere byproduct. A vertical metal zonation develops from surface to depth: Au, Ag Cu, Pb, Zn Cu, Au Cu, Mo (Au), W Fe, Cu, Au (Co,W) U, Ce, La. Whether the relationship between different intrusion related occurrences is well known at shallow depth (epithermal, mesothermal, porphyry), so far less knowledge and understanding is assigned to deep seated mineralization (porphyry, Iron Oxides- Copper-Gold/IOCG). A specific relationship between those two deep seated ore styles emerges, that is the IOCG, confined to magmatic-hydrothermal type, is situated in the root zone of a deep porphyry system. Complementary information about updated classic exploration tools encompasses specifically geochemical association, geophysical signature, key alteration minerals, Au/Ag ratio and, last but not least, type minerals that contain/include gold in each intrusion related environment.

This slightly pera- luminous pluton is a member of the mid-Cretaceous Tungsten Plutonic Suite. 4 Abstract The Tintina Gold Province (TGP) comprises numerous (>15) gold belts and districts throughout interior Alaska and Yukon that are associated with Cretaceous plutonic rocks. With a gold endowment of ~70Moz, most districts are defined by their placer gold contributions, which comprise greater than 30 Moz, but four districts have experience significant increases in gold exploration with notable discoveries at Fort Knox (5.4 Moz), Donlin Creek (12.3 Moz), Pogo (5.8 Moz), True North (0.79 Moz), and Brewery Creek (0.85 Moz). All significant TGP gold deposits are spatially and temporally related to reduced (ilmenite-series) and radiogenic Cretaceous intrusive rocks that intrude (meta-) sedimentary strata.

THORPE* AB8TRACT A new lead evolution model (Ao = 10.242, 80 = 11.9556, Co - 30.37 and To = 4,060 Ma) has been derived, in part, from a steep linear pattern defined by lead isotope . data for deposits from the Superior Province of the Canadian Shield. Application ef this model in Superior Province provides evidence that: a) supports widespread formationofmassive sulphtde deposits at 2,700 to 2,750 Ma; b) some deposits in northwestern Ontario may have formed at 2,Soo to 2,S50 Ma; c) deposition was synvolcanic or nearly so for a few gold deposits; and d) many gold deposits were probably formed, and a few massive sulphide deposits remobilized, at 2,656 to 2,700 Ma, a period of major deformation and emplacement of syntectonic to post-tectonic plutons in the greenstone belts containing the depcsits. The pattern for Slave Province deposits is similar, but massive sulphide deposits are generally 30w60 Ma younger. Modellead ages for Pro­ terozoic massive sulphide deposits in the Churchill, Southern, Grenville and Cordilleran provinces are generally in good accord with other geochronological evidence. The sarne also appears to be true for silver-arsenide veins at Great Bear Lake, Bear Province, and in the Cobalt area, Southern Province. and for certain other epigenetic deposits. Lead isotope data help define a I ,200~1 ,400 Ma metallogenic epoch in the central Yukon, northern Canadian Cordtllera. INTRODUCTION Prior lo 1966 lead ísotope data for deposits in lhe Canadian Shield had been published by Russell and Farquhar (1960), Kanasewich and Farquhar (1965) and Roscoe (1965), and by a few other workers.
