  • The Veladero High-Sulfidation Epithermal Au-Ag Deposit
    THE VELADERO HIGH-SULFIDATION EPITHERMAL AU-AG DEPOSIT, ARGENTINA: VOLCANIC STRATIGRAPHY, ALTERATION, MINERALIZATION, AND QUARTZ PARAGENESIS by Elizabeth A. Holley A thesis submitted to the Faculty and the Board of Trustees of the Colorado School of Mines in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Geology). Golden, Colorado Date _________________ Signed:___________________________ Elizabeth A. Holley Signed:___________________________ Dr. Thomas Monecke Thesis Advisor Golden, Colorado Date _________________ Signed:___________________________ Dr. J. D. Humphrey Associate Professor and Head Department of Geology and Geological Engineering ii ABSTRACT The Veladero Au-Ag high-sulfidation epithermal deposit is located in the El Indio-Pasuca belt in Argentina. Veladero is an oxidized deposit that contained reserves of 12.2 Moz of Au and 226.2 Moz of Ag at the end of 2008. Ore is primarily hosted in silicified breccias. The volcanic package at Veladero is a coalescing complex of domes, diatremes, and hydrothermal breccia bodies, mantled by a thick apron of volcaniclastic deposits. These units are inferred to be of Cerro de las Tórtolas age (16.0 ± 0.2 to 14.9 ± 0.7 Ma) at Amable in the southern part of the Veladero area, and Vacas Heladas age (12.7 ± 0.9 to 11.0 ± 0.2 Ma) at Filo Federico in the northern part of Veladero. Emplacement of hydrothermal breccia units was accompanied or shortly followed by multiple pulses of magmatic-hydrothermal and alternating jarosite alteration from about 15.4 to 8.9 Ma. Alunite and jarosite 40Ar-39Ar ages and U-Pb zircon ages of crosscutting dikes restrict mineralization at Amable to the period from 15.4 to 12.14 0.11 Ma, probably commencing closer to 12.7 Ma.

  • ABSTRACT James Ronald Welch, MOVING from the MIDDLE
    ABSTRACT James Ronald Welch, MOVING FROM THE MIDDLE: AN EXPLORATION OF STUDENT EXPERIENCES TRANSITIONING TO HIGH SCHOOL IN INTERNATIONAL SETTINGS (Under the direction of Dr. Matthew Militello). Department of Educational Leadership, March 2019. The current study sought to understand the stress of the eighth grade to high school transition at the International School Bangkok (ISB) and make recommendations for improving this experience. Transitioning from middle school to high school is one of the most stressful events in an adolescent’s life due to physiological and social-emotional changes they experience at this time. Twelve students from the American, Thai, Japanese, and Korean communities were followed for their first three high school semesters to understand the difficulties of the middle school to high school transition. These students, along with four counselors at the school, were my Co-Practitioner-Researchers (CPR), and through their experiences, we came to understand the struggles involved in this transition at the ISB. Collection of data in participatory action research (PAR) Cycle 1 was through a transition survey and CPR drawings of the most stressful aspect of the transition, which I clarified in an interview. In PAR Cycle 2, CPR members photographed the most stressful part of the transition, then reaching consensus themes as a group. Students kept a weekly diary of time usage. In PAR Cycle 3, the CPR team completed a survey of the stress of the tenth- grade transition. Interviews with students and counselors were analyzed. Finally, a community learning exchange (CLE) was conducted at the end of Cycle 3 to present the study findings to ISB colleagues.
