Abstract
The Cenozoic mineralization in structures associated with the Red River shear zone (RRSZ) in northern Viet Nam includes the following mineralized ore types TR- (U-Th)-Pb-Zn and TR- (U-Th) –Ba-F, Au-Cu in the Song Da rift zone. The origin of the mineralizations is spatially and (possibly) temporally related to the formation of Paleogene potassic mafic – ultramafic and silisic associations. Molybdenum –precious metals (Mo-W-Cu-Au) in the along with Cu-Au mineralization in the Phan Si Pan uplift are related to Paleogene granitoidic magmatism in the Ye Yen Sun complex. Beside, Cu-(Au – REE) mineralizationsin the Phan Si Pan Uplift are described.
