Tourmaline occurrences
The petrographic and compositional features of the tourmaline vary depending on location and stage of deposition.
In detail, two groups of tourmaline are distinguished, one
from Tropezn and Silvita and another one from Candelaria
and Carola.
Fine grained, uniformly submicroscopic tourmaline from
the Candelaria and Carola deposits is euhedral and shows a
poorly defined chemical zonation traceable by a very thin,
dark rim. Typically, it occurs as small disseminated euhedral
grains (ca. 1530 m), only locally forming true tourmalinite (>30% tourmaline). These tourmaline crystals have a
pleochroism ranging from greenish blue to pale yellow or
colorless. In contrast, the tourmaline in Tropezn and
Silvita is coarse grained, up to several millimeters in
length, prismatic to acicular, and shows a well-defined
chemical zonation. Tourmaline from the Tropezn breccia
displays an intense pleochroism from brown-yellow to dark
green in the core, to pale brown in the regrowths and rims.
The cores have abundant fluid inclusions and show a

would be governed by Rayleigh fractionation and producing progressively 11B enriched fluids. Preliminary LA ICPMS fluid inclusion analyses suggest that hydrothermal
fluids at Tropezn carried 102103 g/g B, a content similar
to that reported by Audetat et al. (2000) for the Mole
Granite, in Australia. Precipitation of tourmaline having ca.
3 wt.% B should gradually deplete the system in B. At
500C, the calculated 11Bfluid values at Tropezn are
between 5.7 and +2.4; a fluid equilibrated with the
isotopically heavier tourmaline (11Btourmaline =+0.5)
would imply f values (residual B in the system) as low as
0.01 if the original 11Bfluid was in equilibrium with a
tourmaline having a signature to 7.6. Thus, the
observed 11B range could reflect tourmaline growing from
a system with major variation in the degree of distillation.
These results show that within individual deposits, the
observed 11B variations cannot be due to the precipitation
of tourmaline at different temperatures and degrees of
distillation unless extreme fractionation is assumed; thus,
the observed variations must be interpreted as inherited
from the boron source. The overall isotopic data and
geologic evidence are consistent with a model in which
the variation of 11B values has a regional significance and
is inherited from the B sources.
Arc melts usually have 11B isotopic signatures that are
different from those of the underlying crust and mantle
wedge, suggesting that material from the subducted slab is
incorporated in the melts. Boron in both the slab and the arc
trench is mainly hosted by clay within the pelagic sediments, which is rapidly converted into phengite. It is also
contained in entrained seawater and in serpentine in the
altered oceanic crust. Thus, the 11B values can vary
significantly depending on the thickness and nature of the
sedimentary cover and the degree of alteration of the
seafloor. Pelagic sediments have 11B signatures of 9.2
to 6.6; boron predominantly derived from the pelagic
sediments is accompanied by smaller contributions from
continental detritus (11B, 13 to 2.8), biogenic silica
(+2.1 to +4.5) and limestone (+8 to +35)
(Spivack et al. 1987; Ishikawa and Nakamura 1993). In
the present-day ocean floor east of the Pacific trench, the
proportion of continental sediments and carbonates is low,
with the sedimentary cover dominated by clay-rich pelagic
sediments (Plank and Langmuir 1998). The 11B values of
the altered oceanic crust are between 5 and +21
(Spivack and Edmond 1987; Leeman and Sisson 2002;
Rosner et al. 2003). Ishikawa and Nakamura (1994) stated
that 11B values are also influenced by the thickness of the
mantle wedge but its low B content, similar to that of
unaltered MORB-like crust (ca. 0.05 g/g), suggest that
this contribution is usually negligible (Chaussidon and
Marty 1995). Thus, 11B values of the subducted slab
should be controlled by proportions of pelagic sediments

Conclusions
Tourmaline from the Tropezn, Silvita, Candelaria, and
Carola IOCG deposits of the Coastal Cordillera of Chile has
11B values ranging from 10.4 to +6. Both the boron
isotope data and the composition and zonation of tourmaline are consistent with a common origin for boron in all
these deposits, probably representing different zones in a
large magmatic-hydrothermal system. This system would
include subvertical tourmaline breccia pipes in the lowermost zones (Tropezn and Silvita) and more diffuse
tourmaline-rich alteration that is found only in the deeper
zones of Carola and Candelaria.
As a whole, these 11B values are similar to those of the
nearby Cenozoic volcanic rocks and are intermediate
between those of the porphyry copper deposits and
intrusive rocks related to SnAg deposits, suggesting a
common origin for the boron. The simplest interpretation is
that the 11B values track derivation of boron extracted
during devolatilization of altered oceanic crust and overlying sediments of the subducting slab, which subsequently
interacted with the Andean continental basement in variable
proportions. These results are consistent with Sr and Nd
isotope data, all of which indicate appreciable crustal
contamination of igneous rocks associated with the IOCG
deposits. Local processes such as changes in the temperature of precipitation or distillation seem to have played only
a minor role.
The 11B values are, thus, consistent with a magmatichydrothermal origin for the IOCG deposits of the Coastal
Cordillera of Chile and exclude basinal brines related to
marine evaporites as a major source of the hydrothermal
boron, although non-marine evaporites cannot be excluded;
however, the similitude of the obtained d11B values with
those of porphyry deposits, and volcanic rocks indicate that
the boron is of magmatic/basement derivation. These
conclusions are at odds with those for other settings, where
positive B isotopes values suggest a marine evaporitic
origin of the boron.

project DGI-FEDER CGL2006-0378 of the Spanish Government and
by internal funding of the SIMS Laboratory in Potsdam. It would not
have been possible without the collaboration of Nicolae Pop (Minera
Carola) and Manuel Erazo and Walter Gil (Minera Cenizas) who
granted access to the mine site and assisted with petrologic
interpretation of the samples. Thanks are also extended to Fernando
Barra and Diego Morata (Universidad de Chile) for help on the study
of the IOCG deposits. Our acknowledgement to Horst Marschall and
John Slack for reviewing earlier versions of this manuscript and Bernd
Lehmann for final editing.
