The scheelite-bearing dikes in the Zhuxi deposit formed coevally (∼l50 Ma) with the causative biotite monzogranite pluton. • The scheelite-bearing dikes in the Zhuxi deposit represent the products of highly fractionated melts extracted from deep crystallizing granitic magma reservoirs. • Highly fractionated and highly mineralized individual dikes should serve as an important criterion for assessing the W metallogenic potential of deep-seated reduced granitic magma systems. The Zhuxi deposit, with 3.44 million tons (Mt) WO 3 at 0.54%, is a world-class reduced scheelite skarn deposit and is spatially associated with highly fractionated and highly mineralized dikes, i.e., scheelite-bearing anorthite rock and albitite dikes. These scheelite-bearing dikes share similar rare earth element (REE) and Sr–Nd isotope compositions but display major element compositions distinct from those of the causative biotite monzogranite pluton associated with the Zhuxi deposit. The average compositions of apatite grains from anorthite rock, albitite, and the granitic pluton display roughly subparallel chondrite-normalized REE patterns. Additionally, subparallel chondrite-normalized REE patterns are displayed between the edges of scheelite grains from altered fine-grained granite and the cores of scheelite grains from albitite as well as between the edges of scheelite grains from albitite and scheelite grains from anorthite rock. Moreover, the in situ titanite (150.04 ± 0.39 Ma) and apatite (150.8 ± 1.7 Ma) U–Pb ages of the anorthite rock and the apatite U–Pb age (152.2 ± 2.6 Ma) of the albitite are consistent with the rock- and ore-forming ages (∼150 Ma) of the Zhuxi deposit. Furthermore, the water- and alkali-rich intergranular melt, which was extracted from the magma system, predated its solidification entirely and formed widespread intergranular albite rims surrounding plagioclase grains in the biotite monzogranite pluton where myrmekite is widespread. The scheelite-bearing anorthite rock and albitite dikes represent the products of highly fractionated melts that were saturated with volatiles and extracted from deep granitic magma reservoirs, which later crystallized to form the granitic pluton. Because W is highly incompatible and enriched in residual granitic magmas, large-tonnage W mineralization occurred above deep-seated causative granitic intrusions during the extraction of residual granitic melts if the parental magma exhibited metallogenic potential. Extensive W mineralization is directly associated with highly fractionated dikes rather than with granitic plutons, and these dikes could indicate pathways for W-bearing fluids.
