The Andean IOCG clan in the Coastal Cordillera of northern Chile, comprises the iron oxide-
Cu-Au sensu stricto, the iron oxide-apatite (IOA), and the stratabound Cu (-Ag) deposits, also …

Abstract The proto-Andean and Early Andean evolution of the southwestern Gondwana
margin comprises three stages that differ in their magmatic evolution and deformational …

Iron oxide-copper-gold (IOCG) deposits, defined primarily by their elevated magnetite and/or
hematite contents, constitute a broad, ill-defined clan related to a variety of tectono …

In this book metal deposits, in particular those of non-ferrous and precious metals, are
classified and analyzed in terms of their plate tectonic settings. This approach allows a …

Although studies have proposed that iron oxide-apatite (IOA) deposits may represent the
deeper roots of some Andean iron oxide copper-gold (IOCG) systems, their genetic links …

The Andes, in particular their central parts, have been known as a preeminent Cu province
for more than 100 years and have been the source of many innovative metallogenic …

Tourmaline has long been recognized as an important gangue mineral in metallic and
nonmetallic ore deposits (eg Lindgren, 1933; Bateman, 1950; Routhier, 1963; Smirnov …

A spectrum of intrusion‐related vein gold deposits is recognized. Representative examples
are described of the following geochemical associations: Au‐Fe oxide–Cu, Au–Cu–Mo–Zn …

Supergene leaching, oxidation, and chalcocite enrichment in porphyry and related Cu
deposits take place in the weathering environment to depths of several hundred meters. The …

Four episodes of landscape evolution are recognized, each of which has led to the
development of a regional erosion surface. The first phase began upon elevation of northern …
