A gravity model for the guichon creek batholith Ager, Charles Arthur

Abstract

The Guichon Creek Batholith, located in south-central British Columbia, contains several large, low grade copper deposits of extreme economic importance. A three dimensional model for the batholith has been determined on the basis of a gravity survey conducted in 1971. In addition the gravity data has been compared with the filtered aeromagnetic maps of the batholith. A striking correlation between the spatial relationship of the mineral deposits and the core of the batholith has been discovered.
