The Yulong porphyry copper belt (YPCB) hosts collisional porphyry deposits with varying mineralization scales and elements, extending from north to south. All associated magmas exhibit adakitic characteristics, originating from the partial melting of the newly formed lower crust. The YPCB in eastern Tibet is one of the most significant and earliest identified porphyry Cu belts in China, located in the northern section of the Sangjiang metallogenic belt. The Sanjiang metallogenic belt comprises the northern Qiangtang (also known as eastern Qiangtang) and the southern Qiangtang (or western Qiangtang), separated by the Early Triassic Qiangtang high-pressure metamorphic belt, also called the Shuanghu suture zone. Within the eastern Qiangtang terrane, nearly a hundred potassium-rich porphyry bodies have been intermittently identified, some of which exhibit substantial Cu mineralization, thus establishing the renowned YPCB.

Geochronology

Mineralization age: Paleogene : 41.9 Ma to 32.04 Ma

Important note: This table is based only on rock and mineral ages recorded on mindat.org for this locality and is not necessarily a complete representation of the geochronology, but does give an indication of possible mineralization events relevant to this locality. As more age information is added this table may expand in the future. A break in the table simply indicates a lack of data entered here, not necessarily a break in the geologic sequence. Grey background entries are from different, related, localities.
