Much of the world's economic copper resources are hosted in porphyry copper deposits (PCDs), shallow level magmatic intrusions associated mostly with thick (> 45 km) magmatic …
Global data for measured Fe 2 O 3/FeO ratios and Cu contents in unaltered volcanic and intrusive arc rocks indicate that, on average, they are slightly more oxidized than other …
Metals such as Cu, Mo, Au, Sn, and W in porphyry and related epithermal mineral deposits are derived predominantly from the associated magmas, via magmatic–hydrothermal fluids …
The last 15yr have seen an explosion of data on the volatile contents of magmas parental to arc volcanoes. This has occurred due to the intense study of melt inclusions trapped in …
Vanguard efforts in forecasting volcanic eruptions are turning to physics-based models, which require quantitative estimates of magma conditions during pre-eruptive storage …
