Mineral maps and quantitative element compositions of ores from the Herberton Mineral Field
This dataset contains microprobe analyses of sulphide samples from two deposits in the Herberton Mineral Field, North Queensland, Australia. Mineral map and quantitative spot analyses were conducted on ore samples from the Baal Gammon and Isabel deposits. The minerals analysed include chalcopyrite, pyrrhotite, sphalerite, arsenopyrite, galena, cassiterite and stannite. The analyses were acquired using the JOEL JXA 8530F field emission microprobe at the Central Analytical Research Facility at the Queensland University of Technology, Queensland, Australia.
