  Field-based investigation of structural and geochemical variability of gold-bearing veins in the Klondike Gold District, Yukon, Canada
University of Leeds School of Earth & Environment
  Dr T Torvela, Dr R Chapman, Dr D Banks
Application Deadline: 7 January 2019
Late-orogenic hydrothermal activity results in the formation of quartz and carbonate vein systems in the upper crust. It is an enigma why only certain hydrothermal pulses are associated with economic gold mineralization but others are not.
