PROCESSES and MINERAL SYSTEMS : The Case for Mantle Plumes and their influence on mineral systems
To Plume or not to Plume?
A debate on fundamental questions about the dynamics of the processes that lead to plumes, LIP’s, hot spots and intra-plate volcanoes. The discussion will concentrate on processes that effect continental lithosphere, as they are relevant to the Australian continent and mineral deposits that still have questionable origin.
