Abstract
The use of detrital rutile as an indicator of mineralisation is contingent on the identification of trace element signatures that uniquely distinguish rutile grains derived from mineralisation from those sourced from barren rocks. In order to discriminate rutile sources, principal component analysis was applied to a total of 3149 LA-ICP-MS analyses of rutile from ore environments (Au, Au-Cu, pegmatites, carbonatites, lamprophyres, VHMS) and...
