Abstract
The Dexing porphyry copper deposit, part of the circum-Pacific porphyry copper ore belt, is the largest porphyry copper deposit in China (1,500 million tonnes [Mt] of ore at 0.43% Cu, 0.02% Mo, and 0.16 grams per tonne Au, approximately equivalent to 6.45 Mt Cu, 0.25 Mt Mo, and 24 tonnes Au). We report results of sensitive high resolution ion microprobe (SHRIMP) U-Pb dating on zircons separated from a thick (~20-cm-wide)...
