Abstract
A metasomatic - metamorphic origin is suggested for the gneissic granite occurring south-east of Oakbank. Both the field and petrological evidence support granitisation of the original sediments. These rocks are thus Lower Proterozoic in age. The gold mineralisation was introduced in quartz veins. These have been thoroughly prospected and there is little to suggest that economic quantities remain.
