The Hongyuan porphyry MoCu deposit (PMCD) is a rare example of a "reduced" deposit, in contrast to classical oxidized porphyry Cu or MoCu deposits. It is characterized by an ilmeniteseries Itype felsic granitoid intrusion, reduced ore‑forming fluids with methane‑rich fluid inclusions, and widely distributed primary pyrrhotite.
