Abstract/Notes | SummaryNative nickel of composition Ni 96.3 %, Fe 1.77 %, and Co 0.69 % was found as tiny flakes up to 0.75 mm across in a heavy mineral concentrate from stream sediments in the Jerry River, South Westland, New Zealand. The locality is approximately 13 km downstream from the original locality for awaruite (Ni2Fe), and it is shown that the nickel content of detrital grains increases with distance from the source of the awaruite in serpentinites of the Red Hills Range. It is proposed that the native nickel has been derived from awaruite by leaching of iron. |
