Re-Os dating of molybdenite is an efficient means to restrict the time of mineralization. The age of mineralization of the Xiongcun porphyry copper-gold deposit is confined between 171 Ma and 175 Ma based on this study and other data available. No. Ⅰ ore body of the Xiongcun deposit was affected by later magmtic thermal event. Molybdenite contains trace K-Si silicate enriched in Re. As a result of this event, the Re content of molybdenite is one to four times higher than that of molybdenite in No. Ⅱ ore body and No. Ⅲ ore body, and the age of molybdenite in No. Ⅰ ore body is younger than the real age. The authors also compared the Re content of molybdenite between this deposit and other porphyry-skarn deposits within this belt and found that the content of Re shows systematic variation. The Re content of the Xiongcun porphyry copper-gold deposit is one order of magnitude high than that of Miocene porphyry deposits and two order of magnitude higher than Paleocene to Eocene porphyry-skarn deposits. The Re variation is related to the source of metal, the content of molybdenum, the composition of magma and the physical/chemical condition of magmatic -hydrothermal solution.
