Abstract

This Record details rhenium-osmium (Re-Os) geochronology for molybdenite from one copper-molybdenum prospect (Explorer 27), two tungsten deposits (Pioneer, Hill of Leaders) and one tungsten prospect (North Curtis) in the Warramunga Province of central Australia. Molybdenite was dated to determine absolute ages of mineralised quartz veins and to provide an indication of the timing of copper and tungsten mineralisation in the area., This Record details rhenium-osmium (Re-Os) geochronology for molybdenite from one copper-molybdenum prospect (Explorer 27), two tungsten deposits (Pioneer, Hill of Leaders) and one tungsten prospect (North Curtis) in the Warramunga Province of central Australia.
