A genetic link between magnetite mineralization and diorite intrusion

El Romeral is one of the largest iron oxide-apatite (IOA) deposits in the Coastal Cordillera of northern Chile. The Cerro Principal magnetite ore body at El Romeral comprises massive magnetite intergrown with actinolite, with minor apatite, scapolite, and sulfides (pyrite ± chalcopyrite). Several generations of magnetite were identified by using a combination of …

As shown by Fig. 6, like magnetite from many other Kiruna-type iron deposits, both the massive magnetite and veined magnetite at El Laco plot into the ortho-magmatic area, even though most of their δ 18 O values are higher than 4.0‰. Thus, we infer that the massive and veined magnetite in El Laco deposit might be derived from Fe-rich ortho-magmatic liquids …

One issue of contention on the origin of magnetite-apatite deposits is the Ti content of magnetite. Kiruna-type magnetite-apatite deposits are usually depleted in Ti (e.g., Guilbert and Park, 1986, Farquhar and Chako, 1994, Williams et al., 2005, Chai et al., 2014), while magnetite in stratiform magmatic complexes is often Ti-rich (Reynolds, 1985).
