Abstract The highly irregular and localized distribution of tungsten deposits worldwide constitutes a supply challenge for basic industries such as steel carbides. Over Earth's history, has preferentially accumulated at paleocontinental margins formed during the breakup supercontinents. Later crustal thickening these paleogeographic regions magmas they produce are associated with large districts. However, all largest in modern North American Cordillera, which preserves over 3 b.y. geologic...
Abstract The crustally derived Tungsten Plutonic Suite (TPS) in the northern Canadian Cordillera is responsible for several of world’s most important tungsten (W) resources, but actual source rocks to these exceptionally metallogenic magmas have never been identified. Detrital zircon studies improved our knowledge exposed supracrustal packages region, such that a U-Pb study inherited cores TPS provides an opportunity determine age and provenance melt magmas. dominated by Neoarchean...
Magmatic-hydrothermal systems, especially those causing the formation of tungsten deposits, may be enriched in boron, as is suggested by presence hydrothermal tourmaline. This study examines boron and metal (including tungsten) concentrations quartz-hosted fluid inclusions Lened W-(Be) deposit Canadian Cordillera resolves (i) analytical challenges involved during salinity calculations B-rich fluids (ii) relationship between chemical composition ore-forming processes at Lened. The aqueous...
