Towards modelling the formation of ore bodies initial results dealing with the fluid mechanical aspects of magma chamber convection

This thesis forms part of a larger effort which aims to establish the means of assessing the fluid mechanical behaviour of magma 1 as it cools inside a magma chamber surrounded by porous country rock. The reason for doing so is to advance the understanding of some types of mineral deposits; for exam...
