Arc-basaltic melts of typical hydration state (≥ 2 wt% H 2 O) are buoyant relative to all
common crustal igneous rock types and may pass adiabatically from a mantle source …

Identifying new whole-rock geochemical fertility indicators for porphyry and skarn productive
systems is a geological challenge due to a large variety of tectonic settings, magmatic …

A current mineral exploration focus is the development of tools to identify magmatic districts
predisposed to host porphyry copper deposits. In this paper, we train and test four, common …

Abstract The giant Pulang porphyry Cu-Au district (446.8 Mt at 0.52% Cu and 0.18 g/t Au) is
located in the Yidun arc, eastern Tibet. The district is hosted in an intrusive complex …

Large and easily accessible porphyry Cu deposits have already been identified, exploited,
and gradually exhausted. Novel strategies, therefore, are required to identify new, deeply …

Chlorine and sulfur are of paramount importance for supporting the transport and deposition
of ore metals at magmatic–hydrothermal systems such as the Coroccohuayco Fe–Cu–Au …

Porphyry Cu ore deposits are a rare product of arc magmatism that often form
spatiotemporal clusters in magmatic arcs. The petrogenetic evolution of igneous rocks that …

Porphyry Cu deposits are formed by Cu-and volatile (eg, Cl, S)-rich fluids exsolved from
underlying magma reservoirs. Intuitively, higher magmatic Cl and S contents likely …

The E-trending Gangdese porphyry copper belt in southern Tibet is a classic example of
porphyry mineralization in a continental collision zone. New zircon U-Pb geochronological …

Subduction zone magmatism is a major control of volcanism, the generation of modern
continental crust and the formation of economically important porphyry Cu–(Mo–Au) …
