Full-colour map summarises the major Proterozoic mafic-ultramafic magmatic events in Western Australia. Fifteen events are recognised with four of these (~2420 Ma, ~1850 Ma, ~1300 Ma,~1070 Ma) mineralised (Ni, Cu, Co, PGEs, Ti-V). Inset maps show the distribution of Proterozoic and Archaean rocks, mineral commodities, large igneous provinces, and geochronological data that underpins the main map.
