Geology and geochemistry of an Archean mafic dike complex in the Chan Formation: basis for a revised plate-tectonic model of the Yellowknife greenstone belt

An Archean mafic dike complex in the Chan Formation at the base of the mafic volcanic section of the Yellowknife greenstone belt consists of multiple metagabbro dikes and sills separated by screens of pillowed mafic volcanic rocks, which are cut by a younger postvolcanic metadiabase dike swarm.
