In-situ U-Pb ages of calcite from the Nadan Sb deposit (South China) record a ∼ 10 million years lifecycle of the hydrothermal system

Puntos clave

• The U-Pb ages of calcite indicate a significant 10 million years lifecycle.
• Key evidence shows mineralization processes occurring in this Sb deposit.
• Analysis involves in-situ U-Pb dating to determine the geological timeline.
• Highlights the complexity of hydrothermal systems in shaping mineral deposits.
