Abstract
This work demonstrates that the Fe isotope composition of pyrite displays a significant response to the process of pyrite precipitation in hydrothermal systems, and that systematic fractionation of iron isotopes occurs during fluid/rock reaction in the K-feldspar alteration zone of the Linglong granite. The implications of the results are that processes of mineralization and associated fluid-rock interaction, which are ubiquitously observed in porphyry-style Cu-Au-Mo and other hydrothermal deposits, may be readily traceable using Fe isotopes.
