Porphyry ore deposits are the source of much of the copper, molybdenum, gold and silver
used by humans. Porphyry ore typically forms in magmatic arcs above subduction zones …

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 …

Porphyry Cu systems host some of the most widely distributed mineralization types at
convergent plate boundaries, including porphyry deposits centered on intrusions; skarn …

Abstract The Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB) hosts a number of porphyry Cu deposits,
all associated with calc-alkaline granitic rocks and ranging in size from giant to small. Major …

Porphyry deposits are the world's most important source of Cu and Mo, and are major
sources of Au, Ag, and Sn; significant byproduct metals include Re, W, In, Pt, Pd, and Se …

Extensive research during the 20 th century on porphyry Cu (-Mo-Au) deposits has revealed
the following major geodynamic, petrological, mineralogical, and geochemical features that …

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 …

Porphyry deposits are usually thought to form from subduction-related calc-alkaline magmas
in magmatic arc settings, although some porphyry deposits also occur in post-collisional …

Porphyry ore deposits are the Earth's major resources of copper, molybdenum, and rhenium
(Sillitoe, 2010) and also provide significant amounts of gold, silver, and other metals …

Silicate and sulfide melt inclusions from the andesitic Farallón Negro Volcanic Complex in
NW Argentina were analyzed by laser ablation ICPMS to track the behavior of Cu and Au …
