Early stage: Subduction from the paleo-Pacific plate to the northwestern continent at a low angleLeading to large-scale mineralization in the back-arc zone of the continental margin

Late stage: the movement of the paleo-Pacific plate reversed, and the parallel continental NNE strike-slip caused lithospheric delamination and simultaneous large-scale mineralization of different sources; Mao et al., 2005; 2011

porphyry copper deposit model (Sillitoe, 2010);


porphyry copper deposit is a typical 7span porphyry copper deposit _ Mainly from magma; the lower part of the Yinshan silver-copper-lead-zinc deposit is a porphyry copper deposit, and the upper part is a superficial low-temperature hydrothermal silver-lead-zinc deposit.The ore-forming fluid is dominated by magma in the early stage, and more atmospheric precipitation participates in the late stage. The ore-forming material mainly comes from magma; Jinshan and toad stone gold deposits are hydrothermal deposits in the distant contact zone, and the ore-forming fluid is composed of magmatic hydrothermal fluid and atmospheric precipitation. The mixed product, gold mainly comes from the shallow metamorphic rocks of the Shuangqiaoshan Group, which is produced in the shear zone. The three sets of deposits are centered on intermediate-acid granite porphyry or quartz porphyry (high-potassium calcium-alkaline granite), with obvious zoning. From the center to the outside or deep to the shallow part, they are: porphyry copper-gold-molybdenum deposits , Shallow into low-temperature hydrothermal type silver-lead-zinc deposit and distant contact zone hydrothermal type gold deposit.

The deep part of the coverage area migrates to the surface (Johnson et al., 2004)


The Cu isotopic composition of the leaching layer, the enrichment layer and the primary ore is significantly different. Generally speaking, the leaching layer has a lower δ65Cu value than the enrichment layer and the primary ore, and the enrichment layer often has the heaviest δ65Cu value. .

In the process of secondary ore formation, copper migration and precipitation in the soil and leaching layer iron oxides produce copper-bearing minerals generally have relatively low Cu isotopic composition, but The δ65Cu value has a large variation range.
