The objective of this contribution is to present a novel approach demonstrating the origin of magnetite in the migmatites of our study area. Field investigations reveal that the gneissic rocks within the study area are penetrated by numerous pegmatitic veins of varying sizes. The late Pan-African tectonothermal event is deemed responsible for the pegmatitic intrusions in the study area. The pressure-temperature (P-T) conditions estimated from the migmatites revealed that fluid-present partial melting of the thermally elevated gneissic rocks during the tectonothermal episode was driven by the intrusion of volatile-laden pegmatitic melts. Subsequently, the partially molten rocks mingled with the K-rich pegmatitic magma, resulting in a mixed rock now preserved as neosome. Petrographic examinations reveal that the neosome displayed different degrees of hybridization, as indicated by the extent of amphibole-biotite transformation. Higher degrees of hybridization led to more extensive replacement of amphibole by biotite. The neosomes are also characterized by fine- to coarse-grained magnetite crystals. Based on the findings of this work, we infer that the transfer of K<sub>2</sub>O from the pegmatite magma to the partially molten rocks or neosome assisted in the breakdown of amphibole to biotite. The replacement reaction of amphibole to biotite led to the liberation of FeO, which was subsequently converted into magnetite (Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub>) in the prevailing oxidizing conditions. The presence of magnetite in the neosome reflects the dominance of an oxidizing environment during magma interaction and evolution.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":7151,"journal":{"name":"Acta Geochimica","volume":"45 3","pages":"789 - 801"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-09-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148196235","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

All work previously carried out on this granitoid is concentrated in the northern part of the belt, leading to difficulties in defining its petrogenesis and tectonic setting. To fill these knowledge gaps, a 350-km<sup>2</sup> area has been mapped in the southern extent of the belt between Sayra and Dhanbari. Field characteristics such as contact relationship, structure and geochemical characteristics are considered. Field studies show the presence of multiple cogenetic gneissose and non-gneissose but crudely foliated granitoid variants, which have been mapped separately. Three phases of ductile deformation and two phases of metamorphism in amphibolite facies akin to Phulad Ophiolite Suite are observed in all the granitoid variants. Refolding of gniessosity with the second deformation is observed in the granitoids and the Phulad Ophiolite Suite. Geochemical studies indicate that these granitoids are metaluminous to peraluminous, magnesian to ferroan, high K-alkaline fractionated I-type granitoids. Their composition is governed by partial melting of metasedimentary and mafic rocks of the continental crust at high temperature and subsequent fractionation, which has led to overlapping of S- and A-type granites on the I-type Sendra Ambaji Granitoid. The granitoids plot in both orogenic and post-collisional or within-plate fields. These signatures corroborate the inferences reached during field work, suggesting that Sendra Ambaji Granitoids were emplaced during the waning phases of orogeny in a subduction-related Andean-type continental arc setting.

Mineralization predominantly occurs within quartz-sulfide veins, veinlets, and breccia zones, primarily hosted by the Eocene volcanic and volcaniclastic units of the Karaj Formation. The mineralization trends NW–SE and is influenced by several strike-slip faults. Chalcopyrite and bornite are the principal hypogene sulfides, with chalcocite and covellite representing the supergene stage. The post-ore stage is characterized by brecciated calcite and quartz. Geochemical analyses show that the monzonite intrusion contains SiO₂ levels ranging from 69.80 to 70.24 wt.%, K₂O+Na₂O values between 8.10 and 8.15 wt.%, and K₂O/Na₂O ratios of 1.36 to 1.61. The intrusion is enriched in light rare earth elements (LREEs) and large-ion lithophile elements (LILEs) while being depleted in high-field-strength elements (HFSEs). A low Hf/Sm ratio indicates an orogenic-related magma, and a low Nb/La ratio points to a depleted mantle source.

Oxygen isotope data (<i>δ</i><sup>18</sup>O<sub>H2O</sub>O) range from +4.8‰ to +8.1‰, suggesting a magmatic origin for the ore-forming fluids, later diluted by meteoric water. Sulfur isotope values (<i>δ</i><sup>34</sup>S<sub>H2S</sub>) between −6.0‰ and −9.1‰ confirm a magmatic source. Fluid mixing and dilution are identified as the primary mechanisms for ore precipitation. Raman spectroscopy enables nondestructive identification of minerals through their unique vibrational peaks. Chalcopyrite (213, 280, 1304 cm<sup>−1</sup>), hematite (214, 282, 469, 689, 1309 cm<sup>−1</sup>), goethite (967 cm<sup>−1</sup>), and quartz (125, 198, 458 cm<sup>−1</sup>) show distinct spectral fingerprints indicating mineral differentiation, alteration tracking, and structural analysis in geological studies. Based on its geological context, the Jalilabad Cu (± Au) deposit is interpreted as resembling a high-sulfidation epithermal deposit.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":7151,"journal":{"name":"Acta Geochimica","volume":"44 6","pages":"1186 - 1213"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-08-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145646347","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
