Abstract

Rocks from the Musgrave Block (Figure 1) are mainly composed of granulite facies quartzofeldspathic metasedimentary and meta-igneous rocks, but also include a suite of layered mafic to ultramafic intrusions, known as the Giles Complex. The Giles Complex comprises peridotites, pyroxenites and gabbronorites, which collectively form one of the largest suites of this type on Earth. The geophysical characteristics of the Giles Complex are poorly known, but have received renewed interest since discovery of the NeboBabel Ni-Cu-PGE deposit, which sits 130 km west of the NW corner of the study area, in Western Australia.
