Magmatic-hydrothermal evolution at the Lyangar redox-intermediate tungsten-molybdenum skarn deposit, western Uzbekistan, Tien Shan: Insights from igneous petrology, hydrothermal alteration, and fluid inclusion study

The Lyangar W-Mo skarn deposit is situated in a metallogenic belt of W-Mo, Cu-Mo, W-Au, and Au deposits and is related to an Early Permian multiphase (monzodiorite)-granodiorite-granite-leucogranite pluton that was emplaced in a tectonic domain with possible ancient continental crust. The latter, coupled with an inferred ascent of hot asthenospheric material, has defined an enrichment in Mo and fluorine, together with W and Au, to form a...
