The Tongshan Cu deposit is located in the northern segment of the Great Xing'an Range and represents one of the few early Paleozoic porphyry Cu deposits in northeastern China. The granitic rocks in the Tongshan Cu deposit include concealed granodiorite and exposed tonalite, which yield LA-ICP-MS zircon U–Pb ages of 478 ± 3 Ma and 214 ± 3 Ma, respectively. The granodiorite has relatively high SiO₂ (60.5–63.5 wt%) and Sr (596–786 ppm) contents, low Yb (1.21–1.53 ppm) and Y (9.81–13.0 ppm) contents, and initial 87Sr/86Sr ratios (0.7038–0.7040), suggesting adakitic affinity. Combined with its positive ε_Nd(t) values (3.5–5.4), low Mg# values (41–50), and low contents of Cr (18.6–29.0 ppm) and Ni (7.3–9.1 ppm), we propose an origin by partial melting of a juvenile mafic lower crust in a post-collisional setting after the amalgamation of the Erguna and Xing'an Blocks. The tonalite is characterized by high SiO₂ (63.1–65.9 wt%) and Al₂O₃ (16.0–16.3 wt%) contents, low (87Sr/86Sr)_i ratios (0.7041–0.7042), positive ε_Nd(t) values (2.6–3.0), along with LILE and LREE enrichments and Nb–Ta–Ti depletions, suggesting an origin by partial melting of juvenile mafic lower crust, coupled with fractional crystallization, in a post-orogenic setting after the collision between the Xing'an and Songnen Blocks. The δD values of ore-forming fluids range from −100 to −93 ‰, and the δ18O values calculated from hydrothermal quartz are between −3 and 10 ‰. The δ34S values of sulfides vary from −2.6 to −1.1 ‰. Field observations, as well as the geochronological and H–O–S isotopic data, suggest that the Cu mineralization at Tongshan was genetically linked with the granodiorite.
