Ore genesis constraints on the Idaho cobalt belt from fluid inclusion gas, noble gas isotope, and ion ratio analyses--a reply
Burlinson (2013) questions the veracity of the H<sub>2</sub> concentrations reported for fluid inclusion extracts from minerals in the Idaho cobalt belt (Table 2; Landis and Hofstra, 2012) and suggests that they are an analytical artifact of electron-impa |

Fluid Inclusion Noble Gas Data From Goldfield and Tonopah Epithermal Au-Ag Deposits
Helium, neon, and argon isotopic compositions contained in fluid inclusions in 25 samples from these mineral deposits. Four mineral separates from the Butte Main Stage vein deposit and two from the Bingham pyrite-enargite vein deposits were also analyzed. Includes some hand samples from underground mine workings and some from mine tailings piles and pits. Data are provided in CSV format. |
