Abstract

An editorial focuses on the newly discovered Jinshui tin deposit located in the middle section of the East Kunlun Orogenic Belt in northwestern China. It highlights the mineralization age of the deposit, determined through U-Pb dating of zircon and cassiterite, and discusses its implications for exploration in this region. It reports that the Jinshui deposit represents a significant addition to the known tin deposits in the area, with the ages of mineralization and magmatic activity.
