Kรถppen climate type:
A series of workings that produced Pb-Ag-Zn-Cu. Started 1923. Ore reserves were 7,116,740 tons (1944)(8.6% Pb, 8.5% Zn, 7.7% Ag).
"The world class Mount Isa deposit is a unique, sediment-hosted, copper deposit with no known equivalent around the world and a controversial origin." (Sanislav et al., 2023).
There are two main groups of orebodies: sedimentary exhalative Pb-Zn deposits, with finely banded galena, sphalerite and pyrite, and the Cu deposits, with epigenetic chalcopyrite ores.
A temperature gradient resulted in the distribution of Cu and Pb-Zn mineralisation; chalcopyrite, sphalerite and galena are coeval over the Cu to Pb-Zn interface (Cave et al., 2020).
The ore mineralisation is stratiform, occurring in the 1,600 million-year-old Lower Proterozoic Urquhart Shale sequence. At Mount Isa, the sequence is 1ย km thick and dips at 65ยฐ. The orebodies lie within the upper 650ย m and are bounded by the Mount Isa fault on the west and by volcanic greenstones to the east. Comprising galena and sphalerite with pyrite and pyrrhotite, the lead-zinc-silver orebodies are concordant with carbonaceous dolomitic sediments, interfingering with the silica-dolomitic mass hosting copper. Over 20 ore zones are mineable, each up to 1.4ย km long by 800ย m deep and from 4ย m to 48ย m wide.
Cobalt mineralisation was found in the 1100 Copper Orebody (Croxford, 1974).
