Abstract:Large porphyry Cu and epithermal Au deposits tend to form in distinct tectonic, porphyry and high-sulfidation epithermal deposits in compressional settings, and low-sulfidation epithermal deposits in extensional settings. Given that the analysis of the shallow metallogenic dynamic processes at the upper-crust scale is insufficient, especially the ore-bearing fracture formation and fluid-focusing mechanism around the mineralizing magmatic intrusion under different tectonic backgrounds, we aimed to study how tec… Show more
