Fingerprinting metal transfer from mantle

Nat Commun. 2019 Aug 5;10(1):3510. doi: 10.1038/s41467-019-11445-w.

Abstract

The ore-forming magmas in post-subduction copper deposits are thought to be derived from the lower crust. The Au-Te fingerprints of post-subduction magmas reveal an important role for the metasomatized sub-crustal lithospheric mantle in the formation of porphyry and epithermal copper deposits.
