S.W. Pacific Rim Au/Cu Systems: Structure, Alteration and Mineralization

---

S.W. Pacific Rim Au/Cu Systems: Structure, Alteration, and Mineralization edited by Greg J. Corbett and Denis G. Leach is a comprehensive compilation of research on gold and copper mineral systems along the southwest Pacific Rim, integrating structural geology, alteration patterns, and mineralization processes. The volume synthesizes case studies from key metallogenic provinces—including Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, Philippines, and eastern Australia—emphasizing tectonic controls on ore deposition, fluid pathways, alteration zoning, and geochemical signatures. By combining field evidence with geophysical, geochemical, and petrological data, the book provides a multidisciplinary framework to understand the genesis and exploration potential of Au–Cu systems in convergent margin settings. This work serves as an essential reference for economic geologists, exploration professionals, and researchers studying ore systems and metal endowment in the Pacific region.
