Thermal evolution and interaction between impact melt sheet and footwall: A genetic model for the contact sublayer of the Sudbury Igneous Complex, Canada

The Sudbury Igneous Complex (SIC) and associated Ni‐Cu‐PGE mineralization has been interpreted in terms of a large meteorite impact event. In this study, the thermal relationship between the large cooling melt sheet and the surrounding country rock is examined in terms of its role in an evolving the...
