TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present new analytical data of major and trace elements for the geological MPI-DING glasses KL2-G, ML3B-G and ATHO-G.

TL;DR: In this paper, a large-scale orogenic lode gold (Au) mineralization occurred contemporaneously with an abrupt change of ~ 80° in the drifting direction of the subducting Pacific plate, concurrent with the formation of the Ontong Java Plateau.

TL;DR: Porphyry deposits supply most of the world's Cu and Mo resources Over 90% of the porphyry mines are found at convergent margins, especially above active subduction zones, with much fewer occurrences at postcollisional or other tectonic settings Porphyry Cu-(Mo)−(Au) deposits are essentially magmatic-hydrothermal systems, which are generally initiated by injection of oxidized magmas saturated with metal-rich aqueous fluids, i.e., the parental magmas need to be water rich and oxidized with most

TL;DR: In this paper, a ridge subduction model was proposed to explain the distribution of different magmatic rocks and ore deposits in the Lower Yangtze river belt, which can be plausibly interpreted by mixing between adakitic magmas and enriched components in the lithospheric mantle, and/or crustal materials through AFC process.

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that hematite-magnetite intergrowths are commonly found in porphyry copper deposits, suggesting high and fluctuating oxygen fugacity (fO2).
