    • Yixingzhai gold deposit, located in Wutaishan-Hengshan gold district, is the most important and largest gold deposit in Shanxi Province. Spatial distribution of the four breccia pipes shows the well relation with gold mineralization in Yixingzhai deposit. However, robust constraints on the timing of the breccia pipes formation in this deposit are lacking. The relationship between the gold mineralization and breccia formation is also ambiguous. In this paper, systematic U-Pb dating of garnet crystals from skarn breccia and zircon grains from the quartz porphyry were carried out by using laser ablation-inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICPMS). The garnet grains yielded the 207Pb-corrected weighted mean 206Pb/238U dates of 140±2 Ma, which is remarkably consistent with U-Pb age of zircon grains (141±1 Ma) from the quartz porphyry in this deposit. This demonstrates that the formation of breccia pipes was genetically related to the coeval magmatism. Therefore, we proposed that gas and hydrothermal fluid released from magma increase the fluid pressure, causing the formation of breccia pipes by cryptoexplosion of the wall rocks. The age of the breccia pipes is also consistent with the formation time of gold mineralization, suggesting that the hydrothermal gold mineralization may link with the fluids released from magma.
