Porphyry Copper Systems

TL;DR: Porphyry Cu systems are the most widely distributed mineralization types at convergent plate boundaries, including porphyry deposits centered on intrusions; skarn, carbonate-replacement, and sediment-hosted Au deposits in increasingly peripheral locations; and superjacent high and intermediate-sulfidation epithermal deposits as mentioned in this paper.

Geological characteristics of epithermal precious and base metal deposits

TL;DR: Stable isotope data indicate that the altering fluids are composed mostly of magmatic fluids with a minor to moderate component of meteoric water, with a nil to small and variable component of water as discussed by the authors.

Magmatic to hydrothermal metal fluxes in convergent and collided margins

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the source of normal arc magmas and concluded that they are predominantly derived from partial melting of the metasomatized mantle wedge, with possible minor contributions from subducted sediments.

Phanerozoic continental growth and gold metallogeny of Asia

TL;DR: The oldest gold deposits in Asia reflect accretionary events along the margins of the Siberia, Kazakhstan, North China, Tarim-Karakum, South China, and Indochina Precambrian blocks while they were isolated within the Paleotethys and surrounding Panthalassa Oceans as discussed by the authors.

Iron Oxide Copper-Gold (IOCG) Deposits through Earth History: Implications for Origin, Lithospheric Setting, and Distinction from Other Epigenetic Iron Oxide Deposits

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors define a broad group of low-Ti iron oxide-associated deposits that include iron oxide (P-rich), iron oxides and/or iron silicates intimately associated with, but generally paragenetically older than, Fe-Cu sulfides, have LREE enrichment and low S sulfides (lack of abundant pyrite), lack widespread quartz veins or silicification, and show a clear temporal, but not close spatial, relationship to major magmatic intrusions.
