The Tarim block, one of the largest cratons in China, records an important part Proterozoic crustal evolution Earth. Many previous studies have focused on Neoproterozoic magmatism and tectonic this block relation to break-up Rodinia, although relatively little is known about its earlier tectono-magmatic history. In article, we present detailed petrographic, geochronologic, whole-rock geochemical, situ zircon Hf isotope data for pre-Neoproterozoic Xishankou granitoid pluton (XBP), several...
Fluid flow is an integral part of hydrothermal mineralization, and its analysis characterization constitute important a mineralization model. The hydrodynamic study deals with analyzing the driving forces, fluid pressure regimes, rate direction, their relationships localization mineralization. This paper reviews principles methods studies discusses significance limitations for ore deposit mineral exploration. forces may be related to overpressure, topographic relief, tectonic deformation,...
Abstract The rising demand of strategic metals, especially lithium, necessitates discovery new resources to meet the global supply chain. Recently, several pegmatite-hosted rare metal (Li-Rb-Be-Nb-Ta) deposits have been discovered in Western Kunlun orogenic belt, making it a world-class resource (estimated ~7 Mt Li2O and 0.16 BeO). Understanding metallogenesis this belt is critical further evaluate potential. In study, columbite-tantalite (coltan) monazite from pegmatites zircon potential...
Abstract Deep mineral exploration is increasingly important for finding new resources but there are many uncertainties. Understanding the factors controlling localization of mineralization at depth can reduce risk in deep exploration. One relatively poorly constrained hydrodynamics mineralization. This paper reviews principles mineralization, especially nature relationships between and structures, their applications to various types systems context hydrodynamic linkage shallow parts systems....
Abstract The Proterozoic Athabasca Basin is well known for its unusually large-tonnage and high-grade ‘unconformity-related’ uranium (U) deposits, however, explanations the basin-wide U endowment have not been clearly identified. Previous studies indicate that U-rich brines with up to ~600 ppm variable Na/Ca ratios (from Na-dominated Ca-dominated) were present at sites of mineralization, but it unknown whether such fluids developed solely in vicinity deposits or a basinal scale. Our...
