Mineral Deposits in the Ontario Cobalt Belt

Abstract

Recent exploration by Battery Mineral Resources Limited has located numerous cobalt-arsenic-(silver, gold, nickel, copper) deposits in eastern Ontario. The deposits are located within a 250 kilometre zone located north of Sudbury and trending east across the Quebec border. Deposit types include sulphide-carbonate vein systems, skarn, massive sulphide and sulphide breccia. This talk provides an update on the geology and exploration of several high-grade cobalt deposits within this belt.
