Giant Porphyry Copper Deposits Caused by a Slab Jamming in the Mantle Transition Zone

open access: yesTerra Nova, Volume 38, Issue 2, Page 106-115, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Two giant porphyry copper deposits in the Southern Central Andes formed during the Miocene–Pliocene transition when a bend in the subducting Juan de Fernández hotspot chain jammed in the mantle transition zone, causing mega‐scale slab‐kinking. This geometry implies mechanical resistance that caused East–West compression and eventually a thrust‐

The relation between Cu/Au ratio and formation depth of porphyry-style Cu-Au ± Mo deposits [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Constraints on gold and copper ore grades in porphyry-style Cu-Au ± Mo deposits are re-examined, with particular emphasis on published fluid pressure and formation depth as indicated by fluid inclusion data and geological reconstruction.

New Zealand's Second Meteorite: Makarewa (find, L4, S5, W2)

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 1, March 2026.
One of the most remarkable discoveries of a meteorite in New Zealand was that of Makarewa. Discovered in 1879, Makarewa is a ‘find’ that was uncovered a metre below the surface of a clay bank during excavation works for a train line in the southern South Island.

Rapid Slab Rollback Drives Early Cretaceous Back‐Arc Extension in NE China: Implication for Crustal Growth and Episodic Porphyry Mineralization

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The subduction of the Paleo‐Pacific Plate beneath the NE Asian continental margin induced extensive magmatism, providing an excellent opportunity to investigate the interplay between plate dynamics, arc magmatism, continental crust formation, and porphyry mineralization.

Systematization of u-pb zircon ages of granitoids from the copper porphyry deposits on the urals

open access: yesЛитосфера, 2017
There is a generalization of U-Pb age of zircons from the copper-porphyry deposits of the eastern slope of the Urals. Approved reserves of the largest ones are about 1.4-1.8 Mt of Cu (at an average content of 0.4-0.6 wt % of Cu).

The Significance of Magnetic Fabrics Preserved in Hydrothermally Altered Rocks

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Anisotropy of Magnetic Susceptibility (AMS) and Anisotropy of Magnetic Remanence (AMR) are critical petrofabric tools for investigating the evolution of volcano‐magmatic, tectonic, and surface process systems. These highly sensitive techniques can distinguish multiple magnetic fabrics within individual samples, crucial in assessing archives of

Why large porphyry Cu deposits like high Sr/Y magmas? [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2012
Porphyry systems supply most copper and significant gold to our economy. Recent studies indicate that they are frequently associated with high Sr/Y magmatic rocks, but the meaning of this association remains elusive. Understanding the association between high Sr/Y magmatic rocks and porphyry-type deposits is essential to develop genetic models that can

Drelów, the 13th and latest meteorite fall in Poland—A typical L6 chondrite with shock veins

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 3, Page 466-486, March 2026.
Abstract On Tuesday, February 18, 2025, at 18:04:14 local time, residents of Poland observed a bright fireball registered by many Polish fireball stations belonging to the Skytinel Network established a few months before by Mateusz Żmija. Thus, the meteoroid's orbit, atmospheric trajectory, and the strewn field were calculated, and over 70 fragments ...

Two-sided asymmetric subduction; implications for tectonomagmatic and metallogenic evolution of the Lut Block, Eastern Iran [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
West directed subduction zones show common characteristics, such as low structural elevation, deep trench, steep slab and a conjugate back-arc basin that are opposite to those of the east directed subduction zones.
