Researchers from the University of Exeter, the British Geological Survey and the University of Surrey have published a study that addresses the missing link in models that explain the formation of ...

Porphyry deposits play a major role in mining production. These deposits contribute to approximately 60% of mined copper. The 10 largest deposits produced 25% of the global copper production.

The redrill of the Lower Hank Porphyry target (HW-25-011) intercepted a new porphyry copper system over 429 meters (m). This intercept is significant as it demonstrates the potential for a large ...

Realizing the increasing importance of copper in a sustainable future, CIM is presenting a series of discussions on porphyry deposits — a major source of the green metal in Canada. Moderated by Libby ...

A new and relatively inexpensive way to establish whether certain types of magmatic rocks are more likely to contain valuable metal deposits has been developed by a team of scientists. A geologist at ...

Giant ore deposits contain anomalously large quantities of metal and are priority targets for mineral exploration companies. It is debated whether these giant deposits have a unique mode of formation.

Mineralization at Tomichi is a typical porphyry deposit characterized by disseminated and fracture controlled molybdenite and chalcopyrite hosted by a mid-Tertiary, potassic altered, intrusive system ...

Economic-grade deposits of copper are hard to find. The aluminium content of magmatic rocks at the surface may provide an indicator of ore deposits buried deep below. You have full access to this ...

Climate helps drive the erosion process that exposes economically valuable copper deposits and shapes the pattern of their global distribution, according to a new study. Nearly three-quarters of the ...
