The Nalunaq deposit, Greenland, is a hypozonal, shear zone-hosted, Au deposit. The shear zone has previously been interpreted to have undergone four stages of deformation, accompanied by fluid flow, and vein formation. Coupled with previous trapping T estimates, fluid inclusion data are consistent w...
