Scheelite elemental and isotopic signatures: Implications for the genesis of skarn-type W-Mo deposits in the Chizhou Area, Anhui Province, Eastern China

Scheelite is well developed in hydrothermal deposits, providing a window into genetic processes and facilitating comparative studies, however, few studies have focused on characterizing scheelite in skarn-type W-Mo deposits. The primary ore mineral in the Jitoushan and Baizhangyan skarn-type W-Mo deposits (Anhui Province, Eastern China), scheelite was analyzed for major, trace, and rare earth element (REE) abundance and for Sr-Nd isotopes. The...
