Table 7. Diagnostic mineral assemblages (point data) are the basis for the definition of metamorphic grade in each metamorphic zone. Metamorphic zones (see also Thompson 2005, Figure 2, back pocket) are derived from the grade in one or more rock associations. The first digit of the two-digit number in each cell indicates the rock association. The second digit indicates the relative metamorphic grade for the rock association (higher number, higher grade). The relative positions of the boundaries in rock associations 2 to 7 that correspond approximately to the lower/upper greenschist zone boundary on the map are inferred. The precise positions of these boundaries relative to each other have yet to be calibrated. Mineral name abbreviations: ab - albite, act - actinolite, am – amphibole undifferentiated, and - andalusite, bt - biotite, cb – carbonate (ankerite, calcite, dolomite, magnesite, siderite), cht - chlorite, crd - cordierite, ctd - chloritoid, cum - cummingtonite, diop - diopside, epg - epidote group, grt - garnet, gru - grünerite, hn - hornblende, kf - potassium-feldspar, mt - magnetite, plg - plagioclase, se - serpentine, sil - sillimanite, st - staurolite, tlc - talc, trm - tremolite, wm - white mica (muscovite, paragonite, talc). Metamorphic Grade Rock Association 1) Metabasites: metabasalt/gabbro/diabase, greenstone, amphibolite, meta-andesite 2) Metaquartzofeldspathic rocks: metarhyolite/dacite, qtz-fp metaporphyry, felsic metavolcaniclastite, metawacke 3) Metamorphosed ultramafic rocks: metakomatiite, metaperidotite/dunite 4) Metamorphosed aluminum-rich rocks: metashale/siltstone, metahydrothermal alteration 5) Chemical metasedimentary rocks, meta-iron formation 6) Metamorphosed granitoids: metagranite to metatonalite 7) Metamophosed carbonate-rich rocks: carbonate metasediments, meta-interpillow rock, metahydrothermal alteration, cht-cb schist 8) Unmetamorphosed granitoids: granite to tonalite Sub-greenschist Facies Subgreenschist Zone Lower Greenschist Zone Greenschist Facies Amphibolite Facies Metamorphic Zones on Map Upper Greenschist Zone Transition Zone Diagnostic Mineral Assemblages 10 prn, prn-pu 11 act-cht-epg-ab 12 act-hn 13 hn-plg(calcic) 20 prn, prn-pu cht-wm 30 21 cht-wm cht-kf cht-wm-cb 31 cht-tlc-cb, se-cht cht-tlc-se-cb 22 bt epg-act 32 clinoamphibole (trm, cum) 40 41 cht-wm 42 bt, bt-grt, ctd-cht 50 minesotaite greenalite 51 qtz-cht, cht-cb, mt-qtz 23 bt-hn 52 clinoamphibole (cum/gru), am-grt, two am 60 prn, prn-pu 61 cht-kf, cht-wm 62 bt, bt-epg, bt-epg-am 70 71 cht-cb-qtz cht-cb-wm-qtz 72 bt-cht-cb epg-cht-am-cb 80 no metamorphic minerals Amphibolite Zone 43 crd-and/sil-bt st-and/sil-bt, crd orthoamphibole 73 diop-am-grt, hn-bt-qtz 76
77 Figure 27. Simplified page-size version of the metamorphic map of the Timmins–Kirkland Lake area (from Thompson 2005, p.6). To improve clarity, the metamorphosed granitoids, the UTM grid, and gold occurrences have been omitted. Note, for example, the spatial relationship between metamorphic anomalies defined by the boundary between the lower and upper greenschist zones and current and past-producing gold mines east and northeast of Timmins and east of Kirkland Lake.
