Towards a universal model for orogenic gold systems: A perspective based on Chinese examples with geodynamic, temporal, and deposit-scale structural and geochemical diversity

Qingfei Wang et al.

Summary: Models for orogenic gold systems have remained controversial. The characteristics of Chinese giant gold provinces strongly suggest a sub-crustal fluid and metal source. Lithosphere-scale shear zones and faults play a crucial role as conduits for ore fluids and metals.

Craton and thick lithosphere margins: The sites of giant mineral deposits and mineral provinces

D. Groves et al.

Summary: Researching different types of mineral deposits with varying metal compositions has academic and economic benefits. These deposits, such as BIF-derived iron ores, IOCG deposits, and carbonatite-related REE-P-Nb-Cu ores, are often found at the margins of ancient cratons due to the buoyancy of thick lithosphere, which can preserve metal ores for long periods of time.

A Neoproterozoic low-δ18O magmatic ring around South China: Implications for configuration and breakup of Rodinia supercontinent

Hao Zou et al.

Summary: This study reports Neoproterozoic (ca. 785-780 Ma) granites with low-delta O-18 values from the western margin of the Yangtze Block, which are linked to assimilation of syn-magmatically altered rocks and have their source constrained by high temperature hydrothermal alteration. The zircons exhibit a decrease in delta O-18 values from core to rim, indicating a remelting process at high temperatures.

Progressive spatial and temporal evolution of tectonic triggers and metasomatized mantle lithosphere sources for orogenic gold mineralization in a Triassic convergent margin: Kunlun-Qinling Orogen, central China

Hesen Zhao et al.

Summary: This study examines gold mineralization in the East Kunlun-West Qinling Orogen in China, revealing spatial zonation in terms of ages and stable isotope compositions of the deposits. The gold deposits formed in different settings show distinct stable isotope characteristics, indicating a complex relationship between gold mineralization and the evolution of plate tectonics.

Mantle sources and magma evolution in Europe's largest rare earth element belt (Gardar Province, SW Greenland): New insights from sulfur isotopes

William Hutchison et al.

Summary: The study examines the importance of sulfur isotopes in alkaline igneous complexes to understand the mantle source geology and ore genesis. Measurements and data compilation on samples from the Gardar Province indicate that most samples are influenced by the S isotopic signature of their mantle source, with enriched S-34 and REE in the mantle requiring recycled surface sulfur.

Multiple orogenic gold mineralization events in a collisional orogen: Insights from an extruded terrane along the southeastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau

Lin Yang et al.

Summary: The Daping and Chang'an orogenic gold deposits on the southeastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau provide insight into the relationships between geodynamic evolution of a collisional orogen and orogenic gold mineralization. The differing mineralization ages and sulfur isotope compositions suggest that these deposits formed at different stages of the orogen's evolution.

Conditions and processes leading to large-scale gold deposition in the Jiaodong province, eastern China

Hongrui Fan et al.

Summary: The gold deposits in the Jiaodong Peninsula are the largest gold mineralized province in China, with common characteristics including sulfidation and fluid immiscibility mechanisms, dependent solubility of quartz on various factors, and multi-stage mineralization fluid activity. The evolution of gold fineness is influenced by water/rock reaction and pressure changes.

Mantle flow: The deep mechanism of large-scale growth in Tibetan Plateau

Zengqian Hou et al.

Summary: This study discovered a giant high-heat flow zone in the Tibetan Plateau, leading to the continuous distribution of rock groups. The subduction of the Indian continental lithosphere-mantle triggered an increase in Asian continental asthenosphere flow, causing vertical upwelling of mantle channels and providing deep heat for the uplift of the Tibetan Plateau.
