High-Grade Metamorphism of Iron-Rich Bodies in Archean Gneiss, Wind River Mountains, Wyoming HIGH-GRADE METAMORPHISM OF IRON-RICH BODIES IN ARCHEAN GNEISS, WIND RIVER MOUNTAINS, WYOMING. A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Minnesota BY JULIA ANN SYKES In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science April, 1985 To all those who waited so long ••. ABSTRACT The Warm Springs field area is situated in the northern Wind River mountains and is composed predominantly of Archean gneiss. Within this terrain, two unusual iron-rich bodies crop out. These are believed to be high-grade regionally metamorphosed iron-formation. The quartzo-feldspathic gneiss shows evidence of two phases of folding. It is occasionally migmatitic. Small conformable pods of amphiboloi te occur within the gneiss, indicating the regional metamorphic grade is now amphibolite facies. To the northeast of the area is the Warm Springs Pluton, composed of rocks of granitic to quartz-monzodioritic composition. Granitic dikes, plagioclase-rich pegmatites and quartz veins cut all these rock types. Paleozoic sediments unconformably overlie the gneiss and the pluton. The majority of the area is now covered by glacial drift. The northern iron-rich body, the Wildcat body, contains the highest grade assemblage consisting of olivine, orthopyroxene, clinopyroxene, quartz and magnetite. The equigranular, granoblastic texture indicates it is an equilibrium assemblage. The olivine and pyroxenes show retrograde reactions to amphiboles. This mineralogy indicates that the Wildcat body was metamorphosed to granulite facies. The southern body, the Spruce Creek body, contains more garnet and biotite than the Wildcat body indicating that it is more aluminous. Both pyroxenes occur but olivine is not seen. This body shows an unusual intergrowth of quartz and magnetite that is believed to be due to intense silicification of the iron-silicates. The assemblage olivine-orthopyroxene-clinopyroxene-quartz- magnetite is used for obtaining both fossil temperatures and pressures. Two pyroxene geothermometry gives a temperature range of 500-650°c and a zoning within the grains of 100°c. This is substantiated by other methods. The olivine, orthopyroxene and quartz geobarometer yields a pressure of 3.6-5.9 kbar for this temperature range. This temperature and pressure are within the amphibolite facies. Pigeonite, suggested by the intergrowth of orthopyroxene and clinopyroxene in the Wildcat body yield temperatures of goo 0 c and pressures of 8-9 kbar which indicate granulite facies metamorphism. The area has undergone two periods of metamorphism and several periods of deformation. The two iron-rich bodies crop out along a lineament and a magnetometer survey indicated other iron-rich bodies also conformable with this trend. It is suggested that the two bodies were originally part of one body, disrupted during the Late Precambrian. ACKNrn.JLEDGEMENTS I would like to take this opportunity to thank Dr J. A. Grant for being a wonderful advisor and for serving as chairman of my thesis committee. Ors J.C. Green, R.W. Ojakangas and C. Anderson are acknowledged for reviewing the thesis, serving on my committee and for their helpful criticism. I am indebted to Rocky Mountain Energy Company for funding the field season for this thesis. I am especially grateful to Dr D. Lindsley for providing the microprobe data used in this thesis. Special thanks go to my brother Alan Sykes who was my field assistant, also to Lawrence Rosen for his tremendous help during the final stages of thesis preparation. Lastly, I would like to thank all the faculty, staff and students at the University of Minnesota-Duluth for making my first experience of America so enjoyable.

Areas officially designated as "wilderness," "wild," or "canoe" when the act was passed were incorporated into the National Wilderness Preservation System. Areas classed as "primitive" were not included in the Wilderness System, but the act provides that each primitive area be studied for its suitability for incorporation into the Wilderness System. The mineral surveys constitute one aspect of the suitability studies. This bulletin reports the results of a mineral survey in the Glacier Primitive Area and vicinity, Wyoming. The area discussed in the report includes the primitive area, as denned, and some bordering areas that may come under discussion when the area is considered for wilderness status.

G. Worl, G. K. Lee, and C. L. Long, U.S. Geological Survey and G. S. Ryan, U.S. Bureau of Mines STUDIES RELATED TO WILDERNESS Under the provisions of the Wilderness Act (Public Law 88-577, September 3, 1964) and related acts, the U.S. Geological Survey and the U.S. Bureau of Mines have been conducting mineral surveys of wilderness and primitive areas. Areas officially designated as "wilderness," "wild," or "canoe" when the act was passed were incorporated into the National Wilderness Preservation System, and some of them are presently being studied. The act provided that areas under consideration for wilderness designation should be studied for suitability for incorporation into the Wilderness System. The mineral surveys constitute one aspect of the suitabi^ty studies. The act directs that the results of such surveys are to be made available to the public and be submitted to the President and the Congress. This report discusses the results of a mineral survey of the Bridger Wilderness and the Green-Sweetwater Roadless Area in the Bridger-Teton National Forest, Sublette and Fremont Counties, Wyo. The Bridger Wilderness was established by Public Law 88-577, September 3, 1964. The Green-Sweetwater Roadless Area (04901) was divided into nonwilderness (108,092 acres) and wilderness (79,742 acres) during the Second Roadless Area Review and Evaluation (RARE IE) by the U.S.
