Petrographic, geochemical and SHRIMP U-Pb titanite age characterization of the Thabazimbi mafic sills: Extended time frame and a unifying petrogenetic model for the Bushveld Large Igneous Province

Rajesh, H.M.; Chisonga, B C; Shindo, K; Beukes, N.J.; Armstrong, Richard

Description

Mafic sills occur within and in the vicinity of the Thabazimbi iron ore deposit, near the northern edge of the western limb of the Bushveld Complex. The sills are hosted in the 2.46. Ga Penge Iron Formation of the Transvaal Supergroup. The gabbroic sills
