What Controls the Distribution of Ore Veins in Quartz Vein-Type Tungsten Deposits: Constrains from Fan-Shaped Mineralization in SE China. Journal of Earth Science, 2025, 36(5): 2023-2037. doi: 10.1007/s12583-024-0044-x |
Quartz vein-type tungsten deposits are a common W deposit type. Their ore vein distribution was previously considered to be controlled by regional horizontal tectonic stress. In this paper, 14 tungsten deposits with fan-shaped mineralization in SE China are summarized, and the relations between their ore veins and granite and the ore-forming structural stress field are analyzed. These deposits have a post-magmatic hydrothermal genesis and involve the formation of two sets of veins with similar strike and opposite dips at the top of the ore-causative granite bodies, forming a vertical fan-shaped profile. Their ore veins were coeval with the underlying granite bodies, and generally extend along the long axis of the granite. In such fan-shaped ore formation, the stress is highly focused at the top of the granite and gradually weakens outward. The maximum principal stress (
