Deposits in the Matagami VMS camp constituted the basis of research
by W.H. MacLean and co-workers on the formulation of mass and volume
change relations in altered rocks.
Matagami volcanic stratigraphy was dissected in detail into tholeitic,
transitional and calc-alkaline sequences, and the paleostratigraphic
and paleotopographic distributions of the VMS deposits were determined.
