The Italian Northern Apennines contain several Fe-Cu-Zn-bearing, Cyprus-type volcanogenic massive sulfide (VMS) deposits, which significantly contribute to the Cu resources of Italy. lenses and related stockwork mineralizations are hosted by levels (from basalt serpentinite) unmetamorphosed ophiolitic series; therefore, this region offers perfect locations study ore-forming hydrothermal system ...

The recently discovered 460 Gaodi porphyry Mo-Cu deposit is a sub-economic characterized by low grades, dispersed mineralization, and separated Mo- Cu-ore bodies. This study aims to elucidate the factors underlying this type of mineralization. Electron-microprobe analyses biotite from ore-related granite yielded Ti-in-biotite crystallization temperatures 677–734 °C (an average 719 °C) phenocrys...

The Dakalasu No.1 pegmatitic rare-element deposit is a representative of Be-Nb-Ta pegmatites in Altai, Xinjiang, China. Beryl the most important beryllium-carrying mineral pegmatite. To constrain concentration mechanism Be, we conducted study textural relationships and chemical compositions (major trace elements) beryl, along with microthermometry Raman spectroscopy on beryl-hosted fluid inclus...

Abstract Sediment-hosted gold deposits in central Yukon have most of the diagnostic characteristics Carlin-type Nevada. This study combines organic matter geothermometry with fluid inclusion microthermometry, clumped isotope data (Δ 47 ) for late ore-stage hydrothermal calcite, and apatite fission-track analyses to constrain thermal evolution zones Yukon. The Tmax parameter derived from pyrolys...

The Tertiary-Piedmont Basin (NW Italy) is an episutural basin that developed from the late Eocene on Alps–Apennines tectonic junction. Several coeval geodynamic processes, including loading and exhumation of Western Alps, outward migration Apennine accretionary wedge opening Liguro-Provençal rift basin, controlled evolution. We integrate fluid-inclusion microthermometry, low-temperature thermoc...

The Upper Cretaceous carbonates along the Zagros thrust-fold belt “Harir-Safin anticlines” experienced extensive hot brine fluids that produced several phases of hydrothermal cements, including saddle dolomites. Detailed fluid inclusion microthermometry data show dolomites precipitated from (83–160 °C) and saline (up to 25 eq. wt.% NaCl; i.e., seven times higher than seawater salinity). interac...

Distinct stages of deformation and fluid flow-related diagenetic alterations are recorded in Lower Miocene sandstone conglomerate the Pannonian Basin, Central Europe. Multiple generations structural elements (deformation bands, calcite dominoes veins) as well host rocks were investigated using petrographical, elemental stable isotope geochemical methods together with inclusion petrography micro...

The vein-type Chomalu polymetallic epithermal deposit, located in the Tarom-Hashtjin Metallogenic Province (THMP), western Alborz, formed two separate mineralized zones controlled by fault within andesite and olivine basalt host rocks. deposit occurs adjacent to Varmarziar quartz monzonite, monzodiorite, monzosyenite intrusions. Ore mineralization consists of three stages; (i) an early stage do...
