Abstract

Using SHRIMP zircon U-Pb dating methods and cathodoluminescence (CL) technique, we have precisely dated ore samples from tungsten ore deposit, ore-bearing volcanic-sedimentary strata and granite in the Yushan region within the east Tianshan-Beishan W-bearing zone. This study reveals Yushan tungsten ore deposit zone formed in 250 ± 9 Ma, and it is closely associated with the Permian granites and felsic volcanic rocks. This new type of tungsten ore deposit in the east Tianshan-Beishang multiple-metallogenetic province may probably be associated with the regionally right-literal shearing after the main Carboniferous collisional orogeny, and the formation of pull-apart basin and the felsic magmatism.
