Rhodium through the entire Monchegorsk Complex -
"6.4.6 Positive Rh anomaly
One of the key questions regarding PGE mineralisation in the Monchegorsk Complex is the origin of the positive Rh anomaly in the primitive mantle-normalised PGE patterns (Fig. 49) as most large layered intrusions, such as the Bushveld Complex or the Great Dyke, do not show this distinctive feature"
"The only other intrusion that features such an anomaly is the Muskox Intrusion in Canada (Barnes & Francis 1995)."
RHODIUM in the whole complex -
"In contrast, Grokhovskaya et al. (2003) reported that hollingworthite ((Rh,Pt,Pd)AsS), as they main host for Rh, was present throughout the complex, which may indicate that the parental magma may have been unusually rich in Rh."
Sample lists start at page 297 and 'Whole rock geochemical analyses' starts on page 349 -
