GLOSSARY  OF  GEOLOGICAL  AND  TECHNICAL  TERMS
-----------------------------------------------

Adit - A horizontal or nearly horizontal passage driven from the surface for the
working  or  dewatering  of  a  mine.

Anomalies  -  A  departure  from  the  expected  or  normal.

Argillite  -  A  compact  rock derived from either mudstone or shale but lacking
lamination  or  cleavage.

Arsenic  -  A  metallic,  steel-gray,  brittle  element.

Ash  -  The  inorganic  residue  after  burning.

Batholiths  -  A large, generally discordant plutonic mass that has more than 40
square  miles  of  surface exposure and no known floor.   Its formation involves
magmatic  processes.

Boxwork  -  A network of intersecting blades or plates of limonite or other iron
oxide,  deposited  in  cavities  along fracture planes from which sulphides have
been  dissolved  by  processes  associated  with  the  oxidation and leaching of
sulphide  ores.

Calcite  -  A  cementing  mineral  in  many  sedimentary rocks that has prolific
crystal  habits.

Carbonate  - A compound containing the acid radical CO3 or carbonic acid.  Bases
react  with  carbonic  acid  to  form  carbonates.

Chert  - A hard, dense, dull, microcrystalline or crypto-crystalline sedimentary
rock,  consisting  dominantly  of  interlocking  crystals  of  quartz.

Diorite  -  A  course-grained  plutonic  igneous  rock  containing  quartz.

Fault  -  A  fracture in rock along which there has been an observable amount of
displacement.  When  faults  occur  along parallel or subparallel sets of planes
they  are  called  fault  or  fracture  zones.

Fault  zone - A fault that is expressed as a zone of numerous small fractures or
of  breccia  or  fault  gouge.

Granitic  -  Pertaining  to  or  composed  of  granite.

Greenstone  -  A  field  term  applied to any compact dark-green altered igneous
rock.

Geological  - Pertaining to or related to geology.  The choice between this term
and  geologic  is  optional  and  may be made according to the sound of a spoken
phrase  or  sentence.

Geochemical  exploration - The search for economic mineral deposits or petroleum
by  detection  of  abnormal  concentrations  of  elements.

Geochemical  mapping  - The systematic collection and processing of a very large
number  of  samples accompanied by the proper presentation and interpretation of
the  resulting  analytical  data.

Geochemical  survey - A survey involving the chemical analysis of systematically
collected  samples  of  rocks,  soil  stream  sediments,  plants,  or  water.

Geophysical exploration - Determining the nature of earth materials by measuring
a  physical  property  of  the  rocks  and  interpreting the results in terms of
geologic  features  or  the  economic  deposits  sought.

Intrusion  -  A  body  of igneous rock which has formed itself into pre-existing
rocks,  either  along  some  definite  structural  feature or by deformation and
cross-cutting  of  the  invaded  rocks.

Limestone - A sedimentary rock consisting chiefly of calcium carbonate primarily
in  the  form  of  the  mineral  calcite.

Mineral  - A naturally occurring inorganic element or compound having an orderly
internal  structure  and  characteristic  chemical  composition.

Mineralization  - The process by which a mineral or minerals are introduced into
a  rock,  resulting  in  a  valuable  or  potentially  valuable  deposit.

Ore  -  A  naturally  occurring  material  from  which  a mineral or minerals of
economic  value  can  be  extracted  profitably.

Outcrop  -  The  part  of  the rock formation that appears at the surface of the
ground.

Pluton  -  A  body of medium-to coarse-grained igeneous rock that formed beneath
the  surface  by  crystallization  of  magma.

Pyrite  -  An  isometric  mineral  that  crystallizes in cubes, occurs in veins,
igneous  rocks  and  metamorphic  rocks.

Quartz  -  A  form  of  silica  occuring in hexagonal crystals or in crystalline
masses.  It  is  the  most common of all solid minerals and may be colorless and
transparent,  or  colored.

Schistoscity  -  Considered  to  be  a  type  of  cleavage.

Serpentine  - In petrology, a metamorphic rock serpenitinite composed chiefly or
wholly  of  the  mineral  serpentine.

Shear  -  A  deformation  resulting  from  stresses  that cause or tend to cause
contiguous  parts  of  a  body  to slide relatively to each other in a direction
parallel  to  their  plane  of  contact.

Shear zone - A tabular zone of rock that has been crushed and brecciated by many
parallel  fractures  due  to  shear  strain.

Sulphide  -  A  mineral  compound characterized by the linkage of sulphur with a
metal.

Thermal - Hot or warm; applied to springs that discharge water heated by natural
agencies.

Trench  -  A  long, straight, commonly U-shaped valley or depression between two
mountain  ranges.

Ultramafic  -  Said  of  an  igneous  rock  composed  chiefly of mafic minerals.

Vein  -  An  mineral  filling  of  a  fault or other fracture in a host rock, in
tabular  or  sheetlike form, often associated with replacement of the host rock.

Volcanic  rock - A generally finely crystalline or glassy igenous rock resulting
from  volcanic action at or near the Earth's surface, either ejected explosively
or  extruded  as  lava.

Wall  rock  -  The  rock  adjacent to, enclosing, or including a vein, layer, or
dissemination  of  ore  minerals.  It  is  commonly  altered.
