The isotope geochemistry of zinc and copper
Copper, a native metal found in ores, is the principal metal in bronze and brass. It is a
reddish metal with a density of 8920 kg m− 3. All of copper's compounds tend to be brightly …

The role of magmatic sulfur in the formation of ore deposits
This chapter focuses on S in porphyry-type ore deposits, layered-mafic-intrusion-hosted ore
bodies, and magmatic sulfide deposits. Porphyry-type ore deposits, eg, Bingham Canyon …

Combined separation of Cu, Fe and Zn from rock matrices and improved analytical protocols for stable isotope determination
Isotope ratios of heavy elements vary on the 1/10000 level in high temperature materials,
providing a fingerprint of the processes behind their origin. Ensuring that the measured …

Exploration potential of Cu isotope fractionation in porphyry copper deposits
We examined the copper isotope ratio of primary high temperature Cu-sulfides, secondary
low temperature Cu-sulfides (and Cu-oxides) as well as Fe-oxides in the leach cap, which …

Stable Cu and Zn isotope ratios as tracers of sources and transport of Cu and Zn in contaminated soil
Copper and Zn metals are produced in large quantities for different applications. During Cu
production, large amounts of Cu and Zn can be released to the environment. Therefore, the …

Fractionation of Cu, Fe, and Zn isotopes during the oxidative weathering of sulfide-rich rocks
We measured the Fe, Cu, and Zn isotopic compositions of the fluids generated during
leaching experiments with pyrite-, chalcopyrite-, and sphalerite-rich rocks and with a …
