Magmatic-hydrothermal fluid evolution of the tin-polymetallic metallogenic systems from the Weilasituo ore district, Northeast China.

ABSTRACT: The large Weilasituo Sn-polymetallic deposit is a recent exploration discovery in the southern Great Xing'an Range, northeast China. The ore cluster area shows horizontal mineralization zoning, from the inner granite body outward, consisting of high-T Sn-W-Li mineralization, middle-T Cu-Zn mineralization and peripheral low-T Pb-Zn-Ag mineralization. However, the intrinsic genetic relationship between Sn-W-Li mineralization and peripheral vein-type Pb-Zn-Ag-Cu mineralization, the formation mechanism and the deep geological background are still insufficiently understood. Here, we use fluid inclusions, trace elements concentrations in quartz and sphalerite, and H-O isotope studies to determine the genetic mechanism and establish a metallogenic model.
