Volatile exsolution at the Dinkidi Cu-Au porphyry deposit, Philippines: A melt-inclusion record of the initial ore-forming process

Magmatic Fluid Inclusions from the Zaldivar Deposit, Northern Chile: The Role of Early Metal‐bearing Fluids in a Porphyry Copper System

“…4-A and B) are related to the main hydrothermal system that would have been responsible for the widespread alteration and precipitation of metals in the upper portions of the intrusion and surrounding host rocks. In addition, evidence for the existence of this type of fluid has also been reported by Kamenetsky et al (1999) and Harris et al (2003) at the Dikini and Bajo de La Alumbrera porphyry copper deposits, respectively.…”

“…Despite the fact that there is little information in the literature concerning these multi-solid type of inclusions, the detailed study of magmatic hydrosaline fluid inclusions has demonstrated that they are potential source of key information on the early evolutionary stages of porphyry copper deposits (e.g. Kamenetsky et al, 1999;Ulrich et al, 1999Ulrich et al, , 2001Campos et al, 2001;Harris et al, 2003). In a study of the Zaldívar porphyry copper deposit of northern Chile, Campos et al (2001) reported a distinct type of highly-saline aqueous fluid inclusions and melt inclusions hosted in igneous quartz phenocrysts.…”

Fluid inclusion and H–O isotope evidence for immiscibility during mineralization of the Yinan Au–Cu–Fe deposit, Shandong, China

“…At this point, the melt and fluid were trapped by crystallizing minerals simultaneously. Previous literatures have also shown that, silicate melts and multiphase salt-rich inclusions are interpreted as having originally formed as immiscible phases at magmatic temperatures during the magmatic-hydrothermal transition stage (Kamenetsky et al, 1999). There into, volatile-rich highly saline hydrothermal fluids represented by the salt-rich inclusions are effective in scavenging oreforming components from magmas (Candela, 1989), and have the potential to transport metals (Davidson and Kamenetsky, 2001).…”

Magmatic–hydrothermal evolution of highly fractionated granites: Evidence from the Kuiqi miarolite in Fujian province, SE China

“…metallic elements (Candela and Holland, 1984;Harris et al, 2003;Kamenetsky et al, 1999;Robb, 2013;Shinohara, 1994;Webster, 1997). However, the record of fluids and their properties are usually either indirect or incomplete because of their transient nature.…”
