I am an Exploration Geologist with nearly 20 years of field experience, mainly in gold mining / exploration but also in relation to other commodities. I have worked on 5 continents (all except Australasia and Antarctica).
Can anyone explain to me the frequent link between gold & tourmaline?
I have noticed in different countries, within different mineralising systems, within different rock types, that gold mineralisation is often associated with the mineral tourmaline. I can find no reference to the reason for this among research literature. Can anyone help me?
3 AnswersEarth Sciences & Geology1 decade agoWhy has the polarity on my compass reversed itself?
My compass still works but the white arrow points to magnetic north whilst the red arrow points to magnetic south - why is this? What do I need to do to re-adjust my compass so that the polarity is normalised?
