WHY ARE THERE NO MAJOR Ni–Cu SULFIDE DEPOSITS IN LARGE LAYERED MAFIC-ULTRAMAFIC INTRUSIONS?

Large, layered intrusions throughout the world are characterized by a remarkable paucity in economically important mag-matic Ni–Cu sulfide deposits. The Sudbury intrusion in Canada is a notable exception, but sulfide ores there were formed by a unique combination of processes involving crustal melti...
