| Session Description | The Asia Pacific region is well-known for its geological and geochronological complexity, and its rich and diverse mineral resource resources. The ore deposit types in the region vary from currently ore-forming systems on the seafloor to a variety of magmatic and basin-related ore deposits in mainland SE Asia. Formation of these many deposits is spatially and temporally linked with a long and complex tectonic history of the Gondwana supercontinent break-up and assembly, arc magmatism, back arc basin development, together with arc-continent and continent-continent collisions. We welcome high-quality contribution on the geodynamic setting and metallogeny, geochemistry, geochronology and ore genesis to highlight the vast endowment of world class mineral deposits in the region. |
