Geochemical and Seismic Data on Porphyry Copper-Molybdenum Fertility in Southeastern Iran

Geochemical and seismic data investigate mantle-crust interaction enabling porphyry copper-molybdenum deposit formation during continental collision. The dataset includes zircon and apatite mineral chemistry, whole-rock isotopes, and seismic imaging from southeastern Iran, comparing metal-poor and metal-rich magmas. It was authored by Hadi Shafaii Moghadam and last updated in May 2026.

Use Cases

• Modeling mantle-crust thermochemical coupling based on evidence of lateral mantle inflow.
• Analyzing magma fertility indicators based on oxidation state and melt sulphur content data.
• Correlating deep differentiation signatures with metal release based on strontium to yttrium ratios.
• Investigating sulphide mineral destabilization based on volatile-rich component signatures.

Strengths

• Includes multiple data types: seismic imaging, mineral chemistry, and whole-rock isotopes.
• Provides comparative data on both metal-poor and metal-rich magmas from the same crustal region.
• Quantifies specific geochemical thresholds, such as melt sulphur content greater than 100 micrograms per gram.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
