Layered intrusions are fossilized natural laboratories that historically have constrained many fundamental principles of igneous petrology. Layered intrusions are typically stratiform …

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 …
Arc magmas are important building blocks of the continental crust. Because many arc lavas are oxidized, continent formation is thought to be associated with oxidizing conditions. On …
The association of large Au–Cu–Ag ore deposits with convergent margins is commonly attributed to the higher content of chalcophile elements in the parental magmas generated at …
Nickel-copper sulfide deposits are found at the base of mafic and ultramafic bodies. All their host rocks, except the Sudbury Igneous Complex, are thought to be mantle-derived melts …

The partitioning of 15 major to trace metals between monosulfide solid solution (MSS), sulfide liquid (SL) and mafic silicate melt (SM) was determined in piston-cylinder …

Oxygen fugacity (fO 2) is a key factor that controls the formation of porphyry Cu deposits. Porphyry Cu deposits are typically oxidized, but when and how porphyry magmas gain their …
Chalcophile element partitioning among base-metal sulfide, oxide and silicate phases during magmatic processes is poorly constrained in part because there are very few studies …

We have determined the partitioning of the elements Cu, In, Tl, Pb, Ag, Mn, Zn, Cr, Co, Ni, Sb and Cd between FeS-rich sulphide liquids and anhydrous basaltic melts at high pressures …
