| Abstract/Notes | The Hamaling deposit represents the first discovery of a gold-copper-molybdenum deposit situated within the Ordovician strata of the Tongling ore-cluster region. It comprises three distinct types of ore, including porphyry-type Cu-Au ore found in granodiorite, skarn-type Cu-Au ore at the contact zone, and breccia-type Mo-Cu ore within the Ordovician strata. However, the exact mineralization age, ore genesis, and mineralization processes of the Hamaling deposit remain uncertain. To address these uncertainties, the present study employed LA-ICP-MS to date zircon in granodiorite and garnet in skarn, revealing ages of 139.3 ± 0.44 Ma and 142.3 ± 0.89 Ma, respectively. Additionally, the age of 140.0 ± 1.1 Ma was obtained through Re-Os dating of molybdenite from breccia-type ore. These findings suggest a connection between the Hamaling deposit and the early Cretaceous magmatic activity in the Tongling region. The granodiorite intrusion exhibits a high-potassium calc-alkaline affinity and formed under oxidized conditions at temperatures ranging from 721 to 832 °C (average 769 °C). The Hf isotope composition of the granodiorite implies its formation through the mixing of mantle-derived magma from an enriched lithospheric mantle with partially melted lower crustal source magma. The sulfur isotopes found in the ore minerals range from δ34S = 5.55 ‰ to 11.99 ‰, indicating a magmatic sulfur source. The H-O isotopic compositions of quartz during the quartz-sulfide stage suggest that the magmatic water was the primary component of the fluids responsible for ore formation, possibly with some contribution from meteoric water. The identification of the Hamaling deposit highlights the significant potential for mineral exploration within the Lower Paleozoic strata in the Tongling ore-cluster area and even the broader Middle-Lower Yangtze River Valley Metallogenic Belt (MLYB). |
