Metals such as Cu, Mo, Au, Sn, and W in porphyry and related epithermal mineral deposits
are derived predominantly from the associated magmas, via magmatic–hydrothermal fluids …

Magmatic fluids, both vapour and hypersaline liquid, are a primary source of many
components in hydrothermal ore deposits formed in volcanic arcs. These components …

A fundamental question in the study of magmatic-hydrothermal ore deposits is whether the
mineralization potential of intrusions was already predetermined by the metal content of the …

The principal aim of this paper is to consider some of the special problems involved in the
study of fluid inclusions in ore deposits and review the methodologies and tools developed …

Skarn deposits are one of the more abundant ore types in the earth's crust and form in rocks
of almost all ages. Skarn is a relatively simple rock type defined by a mineralogy usually …

A comprehensive account of ore-forming processes, revised and updated The revised
second edition of Introduction to Ore-Forming Processes offers a guide to the multiplicity of …

Although gold is a noble metal and is effectively insoluble even in strong acids, we have
known for nearly 500 years that it can be concentrated to mineable levels by being …

In most published hydrothermal ore deposit models, the main agent of metal transport is an
aqueous liquid. However, there is increasing evidence from volcanic vapors, geothermal …

Laser-ablation ICPMS has become widely accessible as a powerful and efficient multi-
element microanalytical technique. One of its key strengths is the ability to analyse a wide …

The major and trace element compositions of individual fluid inclusions from a range of
magmatic-hydrothermal ore deposits were analyzed by laser-ablation inductively coupled …
