There are two types of mineralization in the Xinqiao： skarn-type and stratiform-type. The skarn-type mineralization is characterized by iron oxides such as magnetite and hematite, whereas stratiform-type mineralization is characterized by massive sulfides with small amounts of magnetite and hematite. We defined three types of ores within the strati- form-type mineralization by the mineral assemblages and ore structures. Type Ⅰ ore is represented by magnetite crosscut by minor calcite veins. Type Ⅱ is a network ore composed of magnetite and crosscutting pyrite. Type Ⅲ is a massive ore containing calcite and hematite. Type Ⅰ magnetite is characterized by highly variable trace element content, whereas Type Ⅱ magnetite has consistently higher Si, Ti, V, and Nb. Type Ⅲ magnetite contains more In, Sn, and As than the other two types. Fluid-rock interaction, oxygen fugacity （fO2）, and temperature （T） are the main factors controlling element variation between the different magnetite types. Type I magnetite was formed by more extensive fluid-rock interaction than the other two types at moderate fO2 and T conditions. Type Ⅱ magnetite is thought to have formed in relatively low fO2 and high-Tenvironments, and Type Ⅲ in relatively high fOe and moderate-T environments.
