From the Archean to Holocene periods, ore deposits formed at sporadic frequency. The genesis of ore deposits are closely related to global geological processes such as plate tectonics, magmatism and climate change. New challenging attempts to understand the element enrichment process in ore deposits and their related global environmental change have been carried out using stable isotopes of transition metals which have been difficult to analyze so far. Such a new application allows us significant progresses in resource geology. In this session, we widely invite various presentations on the formation of ore deposits as well as active discussion. Moreover, the related topics for development of new analytical methods and their applications, and studies on element enrichment process at various scales (e.g., element unit, mineral unit, global tectonics and climatic change) are highly welcome.
