“…However, continental collision zones and intra‐continental settings are also important settings for porphyry mineralization (Hou et al, 2020; Hou & Yang, 2009; Richards, 2009; Wang, Liu, et al, 2021; Wang, Luo, et al, 2021; Yang, Lu, et al, 2015), such as large PCDs produced in non‐arc settings in Gangdese belt and East Qinling metallogenic belt (Hou et al, 2020; Tang et al, 2021; Tang, Wagner, et al, 2022). The PCDs in island arc setting are generally formed by magmas originated from partial melting of the mantle wedge that was metasomatized by dehydration of the subducted oceanic crust (Cooke et al, 2005; Richards, 2003; Sillitoe, 2010), whereas those in the non‐arc settings are mainly related to the remelting of the juvenile lower crust caused by the upwelling of the mantle magma (Chen et al, 2023; Hou et al, 2013, 2020; Xiong et al, 2019). These porphyry deposits are usually related to hydrous, oxidized, and intermediate to felsic magmas which are derived from partial melting of lithospheric mantle or lower crust, evolved through magma ascending into the middle to upper crust, with fluid exsolved into the apical part of small apophysis (Park et al, 2021; Richards, 2022, 2009; Sillitoe, 2010).…”
