Short Course 1
Geology of Granite-Greenstone
Terranes and Their Mineral Deposits
Saturday, January 23 – Sunday,
January 24
Presented by:
Society of Economic Geologists
The course will provide an overview of
geological principles and tools needed
to work effectively with granite-green-
stone terranes, with examples from
Precambrian shields and younger accre-
tionar y orogens. The recognition,
in outcrop and drill core, of volcanic,
sedimentary and plutonic protoliths that
have been altered, metamorphosed and
deformed is a recurring practical problem;
the application of basic field criteria along
with supporting data will be used to estab-
lish a framework for mineral exploration.
