The Muchen quartz monzonite (MQM) covers an area of ~58 km 2 in Zhejiang Province of eastern South China (Fig. 1 A), representing one of late Early Cretaceous I-type granitoids in the region (Hsieh et al., 2009; Liu et al., 2013b; Wong et al., 2011; Zhu et al., 2014, 2017b).It is also a magnetite-series granitoid (Ishihara et al., …

Quartz monzonite, also known as adamellite, is just one of many different varieties of rocks that frequently occur as porphyries. Quartz monzonite is a granitic rock that is primarily composed of quartz, plagioclase feldspar, and orthoclase feldspar. Other minerals, such as biotite and hornblende, are also typically present in small amounts.

The origin of mafic enclaves in granitoid plutons has long been a matter of debate. In this paper, we present detailed petrographic, mineralogical, geochemical, and Sr Nd Hf isotopic data, U Pb zircon dates, and field and petrological observations, for mafic microgranular enclaves (MMEs) and their host quartz monzonites from the Muchen …

Rock compositions range from quartz monzonite in the northern half of the pluton to granite around Rock Corral Canyon in the south. Excellent crystals of smoky quartz and feldspar are found in vugs or cavities in the granite. They formed when cooling fractures in the granite were filled by late-stage pegmatites consisting of quartz, microcline ...

Quartz monzonite is an intrusive igneous rock collected just outside Salt Lake City in Little Cottonwood Canyon. Geologists believe this rock forms when tectonic plates move and collide into one another. As they do they get cracks. The magma that was trapped under the surface of the plate now has an opening and it oozes up toward the surface.

Quartz-monzonite and granite porphyry samples show similarly shaped REE patterns with the quartz monzonite being more enriched. The REE patterns are characterized by enriched LREE, high fractionation between LREE and HREE ((La/Yb) N = 39–67), and weakly negative Eu anomalies (Eu = 0.78–0.85) on the chondrite …

Geochemical analysis shows that the A/CNK value of quartz monzonite ranges from 0.98 to 1.07, with the Pb content proportional to SiO 2, which aligns with the characteristics of I-type granite. The εHf(t) values for quartz monzonite and diorite are −0.84 to 2.2 and −13.22 to 2.04, respectively.

Most of the mineralization occurred after the formation of quartz-monzodiorite dikes, and was contemporary with the emplacement of quartz-monzonite dikes (Rose and Baltosser, 1966). Between 1911 and 1966, about 250 million tons of copper ore were extracted from Santa Rita, with an average Cu content of 0.8–0.9 wt.% Cu (Rose and …

Quartz monzonite or adamellite is an intrusive, felsic, igneous rock where two feldspar (Plagioclase and Alkali Feldspar) are approximately equal in quantity. Rest of the mineral constituent are quartz, biotite or hornblende. It is typically a light colored phaneritic (coarse-grained) to porphyritic granitic rock. ...

The commercial, wet weather and Lone Star quarries have been ex-cavated in the Sky Blue limestone and accompanying silicate rocks.The present face on the west side of Commercial quarry (Fig. a) is chiefly cut in porphyry and contact rock. The quartz monzonite porphyry clearly intrudes the limestones and contact rocks.

1993), while porphyry Mo deposits are associated within more siliceous quartz monzonite and alkali granite intrusions (White et al., 1981), commonly in regions characterised by a greater ... quartz-sulphide veins which may exploit dilatant fracture systems and migrate significant distances into the wall rocks, and are termed wall rock porphyry ...

The late-stage rocks comprise quartz monzonite and monzogranite (Table 2; Fig. 8 D). Quartz monzonite is a fine- to medium-grained meso-leucocratic rock with small plagioclase and larger (up to 4 cm) K-feldspar phenocrysts and minor biotite (8–15 vol%) and amphibole (1–5 vol%) phenocrysts. Similar to monzonite in the Northern stock, an ...

A hand specimen of this rock will somewhat resemble granitoids (granite, granodiorite, alkali feldspar granite, and tonalite) or rocks like quartz monzonite and quartz-diorite. It may not be easy to tell these rocks apart. However, granitoids are often lighter and will have visible quartz minerals unlike syenite.

Along the resulting joints, quartz monzonite was altered to bleached zones (selvages) during a second stage of alteration. Within these selvages, complete decomposition of biotite that had survived pervasive alteration was accompanied by further growth of diopside, albitization of feldspars, and dissolution of some apatite. ...
