Mineral chemistry of apatite, amphibole, biotite, and magnetite from the Masjeddaghi porphyry Cu-Au deposit, NW Iran: petrogenetic and metallogenic implications

The Masjeddaghi porphyry Cu-Au deposit is situated in the Alborz-Azarbaijan structural zone of northwest Iran. Chemical compositions of rock-forming (biotite, amphibole) and accessory minerals (magnetite, apatite) in the potassic to propylitic altered diorite porphyry of Masjeddaghi serve as key ind...
