The three main metals mined
at Voisey’s Bay are cobalt,
nickel and this.
What is Copper?
The three main metals mined at
Voisey’s Bay are nickel, copper
and this.
What is Cobalt?
The three main metals mined
at Voisey’s Bay are copper,
cobalt and this.
What is Nickel ?
This rock is the ore of
aluminum.
What is Bauxite ?
This rock tastes salty and has
cubic cleavage.
What is Halite ?
A geological structure that allows
for significant amounts of oil and
gas to accumulate.
What is a Petroleum Trap ?
This is the porous, permeable
portion of an oil trap that yields
oil and gas.
What is a Reservoir Rock ?
A place in Labrador that has a
mine for copper, nickel and
cobalt.
What is Voisey’s Bay?
A useful metallic mineral that can
be mined at a profit.
What is an Ore?
Non-metallic minerals used as
building stone, aggregates,
abrasives, ceramics and
fertilizers, they are not called
ores.
What are Industrial Minerals?
A boundary in which two plates
move apart.
What are Divergent Plate
Boundaries?
A boundary in which two
plates move together.
What are Convergent Plate
Boundaries?
A type of convergence in which
two slabs of ocean crust move
together.
What is Oceanic-Oceanic
Convergence?
A type of convergence in which a
slab of ocean crust and
continental crust move together.
What is Oceanic-Continental
Convergence?
A type of convergence in which
two slabs of continental crust
collide with each other.
What is ContinentalContinental Convergence?
A German meteorologist and
geophysicist who set forth the
basic outline for his hypothesis
of continental drift.
Who is Alfred Wegener?
This person wrote the book
Physical Geology, he
suggested that convection
currents were responsible for
moving the continents.
Who is Arthur Holmes?
The guy that first proposed
seafloor spreading in the 1960’s.
Who is Harry Hess?
A hypothesis, credited to
Alfred Wegener, that suggests
that all present continents once
existed as a single
supercontinent and have
‘drifted’ to their current
positions.
What is the Continental Drift
hypothesis?
The hypothesis first proposed
in the 1960’s by Harry Hess
that suggests that new oceanic
crust is produced at the crests
of mid-ocean ridges.
What is Seafloor Spreading?
A mineral deposit filling a
fracture or fault in a host rock,
created by hydrothermal fluid.
Ex: Gold, mercury.
What is a Vein Deposit?
A deposit formed when heavy
minerals are mechanically
concentrated by currents, most
commonly streams.
Ex: Gold.
What is a Placer Deposit?
A process by which the
concentration of minor
amounts of metals are
scattered through unweathered
rock into economically
valuable concentrations by
water moving through soil.
Ex: Bauxite.
What is Secondary
Enrichment?
A sedimentary rock formed of
material deposited from
solution by the evaporation of
water.
What are Evaporites?
The hot, watery solution that
escapes from a mass of magma
during the latter part of
crystallization. Forms vein
deposits.
What are Hydrothermal
Solutions?
