In-situ elemental and boron isotopic variations of tourmaline from the Maogongdong deposit in the Dahutang W-Cu ore field of northern Jiangxi Province, South China: Insights into magmatic-hydrothermal evolution

In this paper, we present a systematic investigation of in-situ major, trace elements and boron isotopic variations of tourmaline from the Maogongdong deposit in the Dahutang W-Cu ore field of northern Jiangxi Province, South China, which demonstrates both the magmatic and hydrothermal origin for the formation of the tourmalines. The tourmaline occurs mainly in granites, pegmatites and quartz veins. Five types of tourmaline are identified: (1)...
