ABSTRACT Many people may not be aware of the extent of Kurt Kyser's collaboration with mineral exploration companies through applied research and the development of innovative exploration technologies, starting at the University of Saskatchewan and continuing through the Queen's Facility for Isotope Research. Applied collaborative, geoscientific, industry-academia research and development programs can yield technological innovations that can improve the mineral exploration discovery rates of economic mineral deposits. Alliances between exploration geoscientists and geoscientific researchers can benefit both parties, contributing to the pure and applied geoscientific knowledge base and the development of innovations in mineral exploration technology. Through a collaboration that spanned over three decades, we gained insight into the potential for economic uranium deposits around the world in Canada, Australia, USA, Finland, Russia, Gabon, Namibia, Botswana, South Africa, and Guyana. Kurt, his research team, postdoctoral fellows, and students developed technological innovations related to holistic basin analysis for economic mineral potential, isotopes in mineral exploration, and biogeochemical exploration, among others. In this paper, the business of mineral exploration is briefly described, and some examples of industry-academic collaboration innovations brought forward through Kurt's research are identified. Kurt was a masterful and capable knowledge broker, which is a key criterion for bringing new technologies to application—a grand, curious, credible, patient, and attentive communicator—whether talking about science, business, or life and with first ministers, senior technocrats, peers, board members, first nation peoples, exploration geologists, investors, students, citizens, or friends.

AbstractNodules of manganoan fayalite occur in schlieren pegmatities in the vicinity of Strzegom, Lower Silesia. The fayalite, Na0.02(Fe1.812+Mn0.16Mg 0.03)Si0.99O4, is unzoned and non pleochroic. 2Va = 42° a 4.826(3), b 10.500(2), c 6.102(2) A, d130obs. = 2.83 Å, d130calc. = 2.833 Å, D = 4.35 g cm-3, Dcalc. = 4.353 g cm-3. The role of Na+ ions in the fayalite chemistry is discussed. The fayalite underwent multi-stage hydrothermal alteration beginning at the highest temperature (440°C) of homogenization of gaseous-fluid inclusions in quartz adjacent to the fayalite grains. Increase in fO2 and then in PH2O resulted in the formation of magnetite-quartz and Mn-grunerite-magnetite-quartz aggregates within the fayalite grains. The fayalite is mantled by a Mn-greenalite-magnetite rim, Mn-grunerite-magnetite-Mn-minnesotaite zone in a stilpnomelane or greenalite-rich groundmass. The minnesotaite is believed to have formed at the expense of grunerite. Stilpnomelane, the most abundant silicate phase in the rim, is the product of biotite and presumably greenalite alteration at the second stage of increasing Na activity (the crystallization of cleavelandite) in the pegmatites. The fayalite is also heavily altered to iddingsite—a composite mixture of amorphous FeOOH and silica. The iron-hydroxide recrystallized partially to poorly-crystalline goethite.

This volume comprises 17 contributions that address the architecture and geodynamic evolution of the Himalaya–Karakoram–Tibet (HKT) system, covering wide aspects, from the active seismicity of the present day to the remnants of the Proterozoic orogen. The articles investigate the HKT system at different scales, blending field research with laboratory studies. The role of various lithospheric components and their inheritance in the geodynamic and magmatic evolution of the HKT system through time, and their links to global geological events, are studied in the field. The laboratory research focuses on the (sub-)micrometre scale, detailing micro-structural geology, crystal chemistry, geochronology, and the study of circulating fluids, their preservation (trapped in fluid inclusions) and their evolution, distribution, migration and interaction with the solid host. An orogen over 2000 km long can be understood only if the processes at the nanometre and micrometre scales are taken into account. The contributions in this volume successfully combine these scales to enhance our understanding of the HKT system.
