Extract

Sulphide-bearing quartz veins were first observed on Hurd Peninsula, Livingston Island, at Henry Bluff in 1958 (Hobbs 1968). Subsequent mapping of the host Miers Bluff Formation (MBF) in western Hurd Peninsula either did not record veining or was ambiguous as to its distribution, scale of development and genesis (for review see Pride et al. 1990).
