Neoarchean convergent margin Ni-Cu mineralization? Axis Lake and Nickel King Ni-Cu deposits in the south Rae craton of the Canadian Shield

Our data indicate that Neoarchean intrusions with an arc-like geochemistry may be a significant exploration target in the Rae craton. This broadens possible host suites beyond the established Paleoproterozoic rift-related rocks most commonly considered as the prime target for Ni-Cu-PGE mineralization.
