Shortwave infrared (SWIR) technology is characterized by high efficiency and convenience and is widely used in the mineral exploration of porphyry, epithermal, and skarn types. However, studies on the SWIR spectral features of porphyry tungsten deposits are still lacking. The Dahutang tungsten deposit has reached an ultra large scale, characterized by the porphyry type. Based on the SWIR spectral features of white mica and its petrographic, geochemical, and Raman spectral features, this paper discusses the use of shortwave infrared and Raman spectral features and major and trace element contents in white mica for exploration of the Shimensi mine in Dahutang. The results showed that the SWIR wavelength of the single-frequency Al-O-H absorption peak position (Pos2200) of white micas in ore-bearing intrusions were over 2209 nm; the Raman shift of aluminium atom bridge-bonds (Al, O (br)) were mainly located between 410 and 420 cm−1. The contents of Si, Fe, and Mg were relatively high; the contents of Al, Na, and K were low; and the variation of the Nb/Ta value reflected the magmatic evolution degree. The shift of Pos2200 of white mica showed a correlation with the Raman spectral features and contents of Si, Al, and other elements. This study shows that the SWIR spectral features of white mica were useful for further exploration of the Shimensi area in Dahutang and provided a potential tool for the exploration of porphyry tungsten deposits.

The Dahutang tungsten deposit is one of the largest deposits in the Jiangnan tungsten belt. The Jiningian pluton is widely distributed in the orefield, which is considered an ore-bearing wall rock and Ca source for scheelite mineralization. The Jiningian granodiorite samples near ore have high W contents (average 93 ppm). Moreover, their SiO2 and P2O5 contents are positively correlated in Harker diagrams, and the A/CNK values vary between 1.18–1.71, suggesting that the Jiningian granodiorite is high fractionated S-type granites and has the potential for W mineralization. The zircon U-Pb ages of the Jiningian granodiorite samples (17SWD-1, 17SWD-2) are 845 ± 21 Ma (MSWD = 1.7) and 828.7 ± 7.5 Ma (MSWD = 1.0), respectively, representing the formation ages of the Jiningian pluton. The U-Pb age of hydrothermal zircons (~140 Ma) in the Jiningian granodiorite samples is consistent with the mineralization age (150–139 Ma), indicating the strong superimposed modification of the Yanshanian mineralizing fluids. The positive correlation between Ca and W molarity in the Jiningian granodiorite samples demonstrates that they provide considerable Ca and W during Yanshanian mineralization. The W activation migration due to sodium alteration can be inferred from the inverse correlation between Na and W molarity. The study tries to provide a new perspective on the origin of mineralized material in the world-class Dahutang tungsten deposit. Full article
