Abstract:
The Nairne Pyrite deposit occurs in at least five horizons in a succession of graywackes, quartzites, and siltstones of Cambrian age. Pyrite and pyrrhotite have been traced along bedding planes for almost 100 km suggesting, of course, a syngenetic origin for the sulfides. Sulfur isotopic analyses of samples from the Nairne Pyrite open-cut project provide deltaS34 values ranging from –12.8 to –20.6 permil. Such enrichment in S32, even though the spread in deltaS34 values is comparatively narrow, is suggestive of bacteriogenic sulfur which corroborates the geological evidence that the deposit is bacteriogenic — syngenetic in origin.
Zusammenfassung Die Pyrit-Lagerstätte Nairne umfaßt wenigstens fünf Horizonte cambrischer Grauwacken, Quartzite und feine Sand- bis Tonsteine. Pyrit und Magnetkies sind über eine Distanz von fast 100 km schichtgetreu, was auf einen syngenetischen Ursprung der Sulfide hinweist. Schwefelisotop-Analysen von Pyrit aus dem Tagebau-Projekt erstrecken sich über einen deltaS34-Bereich von –12,8 bis –20,6 Promille. Diese Anreicherung weist auf einen bakteriellen Ursprung des Schwefels hin, obgleich die Spannweite der Resultate sehr eng ist. Somit ist die ldquorFeldvermutungldquo einer syngenetisch-bakteriellen Entstehung bekräftigt.


The isotopic analyses included in this paper were supported through the U. S. Atomic Energy Commission Contract AT (11-1) 1553, for which we are most grateful.
