SEM-EDS study of outcrop samples from the PGE mineralized, layered Hanumalapura segment of the Channagiri Mafic-Ultramafic complex, has revealed that they contain a variety of Platinum-Group mineral inclusions. Among more than 25 different PGM's distinguished, sperrylite, stibiopalladinite, hollingworthite, keithconnite, mertieite II, laurite, ruarsite together with a suite of Pt and Pd alloys, constitute the more important carriers of PGE in the ore reefs. From the close association of PGM's with chromite-bearing host rocks, it is inferred that crystallization of chromite had the governing control over the concentration of PGE.
