Tectonic Setting of 2.6 Ga Carbonatites in the Slave Province, NW Canada

An Archaean carbonatite-bearing alkaline complex, the Grays Bay alkaline complex, has been mapped in the Slave Province of northwestern Canada. It consists of five sequentially emplaced phases: a melanocratic syenite, a carbonatite and silico-carbonatite, a pegmatitic biotite syenite and fine-graine...
