FIG. 13. Bivariate plots of sulfur (wt %) vs. Ni, Pt, and Pd (ppm). Note the
positive correlations, suggesting a sulfide control on mineralization. Elevated
Ni concentrations in samples without sulfides suggest the presence of minor Ni
in silicate minerals. Preliminary electron microprobe data confirm that
clinopyroxene contains significant Ni. Correlation coefficients (r) are
calculated for samples, excluding the High-Grade zone.
