Placer platinum-group minerals in the Shetland ophiolite complex derived from anomalously enriched podiform chromitites

Abstract: Highly anomalous platinum-group element (PGE) concentrations in the podiform chromitites at the Cliff and Harold's Grave localities in the Shetland ophiolite complex have been well documented previously. The focus of this study is alluvial platinum-group minerals (PGM) located in small streams that drain from the PGE-rich chromitites. The placer PGM assemblage at Cliff is dominated by Pt-arsenides (64%) and Pd-antimonides (17%), with less irarsite–hollingworthite (11%) and minor Pd-sulfides, Pt–Pd–Cu and Pt–Fe… Show more

“…The locality described in the O'Driscoll et al article (Cliff ) is the classic area where Hazel discovered such anomalously high Pt and Pd enrichments, compared to other ophiolitic chromitites worldwide, and adds additional support to Hazel's original and novel interpretation for a metasomatic origin for these enrichments. Prichard et al (2018b) also discuss the Shetland ophiolite, concentrating on the variety of placer platinum-group minerals (PGM) derived from the Cliff, and also the Harold's Grave, localities. Ophiolite-derived PGM are also described by Barkov et al (2018) and Cabri and Aiglsperger (2018).…”
