    Abstract Porphyry copper deposits are important for economic value and resources. Some of the common metals found in porphyry copper deposits are gold, silver, and molybdenite. Most porphyry copper deposits can be found along the Pacific Rim and formed during the Tertiary and Quaternary periods. Porphyry copper deposits form through a series of subducting tectonic events, having a copper bearing source, and convection of hydrothermal fluids acting on an igneous intrusion. Introduction…
