Tectonism and Exhumation in Convergent Margin Orogens: Insights from Ore Deposits

Three widespread and abundant types of ore deposits, epithermal silver‐gold (Ag‐Au), porphyry copper (Cu), and orogenic gold (Au), form by hydrothermal activity during tectonic convergence along continental margins, and their preservation provides new insights into rates of those processes that form...
