The regional geology and gold mineralization of the Skellefte district are similar to two of the largest gold provinces in the world; Timmins, Ontario and the Golden Mile in Western Australia, each of which has produced more than 50 million ounces of gold.
Gold mineralization in the Skellefte district is concentrated along a north-west structural trend known as the "gold-line" in the western part of the field.
Mawson's new exploration permits are predominantly located along this mineralized trend and were defined from the Company's comprehensive regional database in combination with specialist structural interpretation of the region.

 IGCP 502 Programme
Via annual to bi-annual field workshops held on a rotating basis in different VMS districts, and by exchange of project members among the teams, individual teams will be able to draw on this pool of experience and complement the expertise of their own team.
Plans for the Skellefte district project were made jointly amongst researchers and the mining industry, and in 2002 funding was secured from GEORANGE (6.15 million Skr over 2.5 years) and Boliden Mineral AB (560,000 SEK per year) and the project commenced.
For example, in the Skellefte district (Sweden), the volcanic architecture of several of the VMS deposits has recently been studied, but the character of the ore deposits and the regional stratigraphic position of ore horizons has not been studied in detail.

 Svecofennian volcanism in northernmost Sweden
In areas with older bedrock, the tectonic environment that resulted in the formation of volcanism and ores can often be determined by the geochemical character of the volcanic rocks in combination with the distribution of associated rock types.
The volcanic rocks north of the Skellefte District were previously considered to have been formed by processes related to a subduction zone directed to the north below the Skellefte District.
Stratigraphical evidence and isotopic age determinations indicate that the Svecofennian volcanic rocks in the areas north of the Skellefte District were emplaced during several periods.

The Skellefte district is one of three major ore provinces in Sweden and contains more than 80 Zn-Cu-Au-Ag massive sulphide deposits.
The tholeiitic to transitional Maurliden volcanic centre developed in an extensional arc region in the Skellefte district that probably developed on an immature (relatively thin) continental arc crust.
