Predicting paragenetic modes of deposit

Green indicates almost certain match based on minerals unique to a certain deposit type. Yellow indicates a possibly poor match, but should not be entirely discounted. Scores > 100 indicate strong confidence.

Paragenetic Mode	Score
26 : Hadean detrital minerals	50
40 : Regional metamorphism (greenschist, amphibolite, granulite facies)	49
34 : Complex granite pegmatites	46
31 : Thermally altered carbonate, phosphate, and iron formations	34
19 : Granitic intrusive rocks	13
