2015-6-27 The term “porphyry copper” is derived from the texture of the igneous rock that forms these intrusive bodies. Porphyritic texture is characterized by larger crystals of feldspar and quartz, known as phenocrysts, which are surrounded by a matrix of very fine-grained crystals. This texture

Porphyritic texture is a very common texture in igneous rocks in which larger crystals (phenocrysts) are embedded in a fine-grained groundmass. Porphyry is an igneous rock that contains larger crystals (phenocrysts) in a fine-grained groundmass. K-feldspar

2020-8-26 Porphyritic textured rocks contain both a coarse and fine-grained texture. The coarse grains in a porphyritic rock begin to develop as the magma is cooling below the surface of the earth. Following eruption or exposure to lower temperatures, the remaining magma or lava cools very quickly and forms minerals with fine-grained textures.

2014-4-21 Phaneritic Texture - Mining Fundamentals. Igneous textures are used by geologists in identifying the origin of rocks, and for the classification of rocks. Phaneritic texture is one of the six main textures of rocks. Phaneritic rocks are intrusive igneous rocks with coarse crystals of equal size. Phaneritic rocks indicate slow cooling of magma ...

2021-9-20 The Tiegelongnan porphyry-epithermal deposit (2089 Mt @ 0.53% Cu, 0.08 g/t Au) is host to a large variety of Cu-sulfide minerals, mainly chalcopyrite, bornite, covellite, digenite, enargite, and tennantite. We used LA-ICP-MS to investigate the trace element geochemistry of the Tiegelongnan Cu-sulfides, as well as pyrite, to understand the correlation between sulfides and trace elements, gold ...

The quartz monzonite porphyry intrusions have a distinct pipe-like morphology and are ubiquitously K-feldspar–altered with a crystal-crowded porphyritic texture. The textures of the quartz monzonite porphyries and common occurrence of porphyry-cemented contact breccias indicate they were forcibly emplaced and of relatively low viscosity.
