<p>Kiruna-type apatite-iron-oxide ores are key iron sources for modern industry. The origin of the Kiruna-type apatite-iron-oxide ores remains ambiguous, however, despite a long history of study and a concurrently intense scientific debate. Diverse ore-forming processes have been discussed, comprising low-temperature hydrothermal processes versus a high-temperature origin from magma or magmatic fluids. We present an extensive set of new and combined iron and oxygen isotope data from magnetite of Kiruna-type ores from Sweden, Chile and Iran, and compare them with new global reference data from layered intrusions, active volcanic provinces, and established low-temperature and hydrothermal iron ores. We show that approximately 80% of the magnetite from the investigated Kiruna-type ores exhibit δ<sup>56</sup>Fe and δ<sup>18</sup>O ratios that overlap with the volcanic and plutonic reference materials (> 800 °C), whereas ~20%, mainly vein-hosted and disseminated magnetite, match the low-temperature reference samples (≤400 °C). Thus, Kiruna-type ores are dominantly magmatic in origin, but may contain late-stage hydrothermal magnetite populations that can locally overprint primary high-temperature magmatic signatures [1] .</p><p> </p><p>[1] Troll, V.R., Weis, F.A., Jonsson, E. et al. Global Fe–O isotope correlation reveals magmatic origin of Kiruna-type apatite-iron-oxide ores. Nature Communications <strong>10, </strong>1712 (2019) doi:10.1038/s41467-019-09244-4</p>

Abstract. Stratospheric and upper tropospheric air samples were collected during 1994–2004 over Sanriku, Japan and in 1997 over Kiruna, Sweden. Using these archived air samples, we determined the triple oxygen-isotope composition of stratospheric CO2 and the N2O mixing ratio. The maximum Δ17OCO2 value of +12.2‰, resembling that observed previously in the mesosphere at 60 km height, was found in the middle stratosphere over Kiruna at 25.6 km height, suggesting that upper stratospheric and mesospheric air descended to the middle stratosphere through strong downward advection. A least-squares regression analysis of our observations on a δ18OCO2−δ17OCO2 plot (r2>0.95) shows a slope of 1.63±pm0.10, which is similar to the reported value of 1.71±0.06, thereby confirming the linearity of three isotope correlation with the slope of 1.6–1.7 in the mid-latitude lower and middle stratosphere. The slope decrease with increasing altitude and a curvy trend in three-isotope correlation reported from previous studies were not statistically significant. Using negative linear correlations of Δ17OCO2 and δ18OCO2 with the N2O mixing ratio, we quantified triple oxygen-isotope fluxes of CO2 to the troposphere as +48‰ GtC/yr (Δ17OCO2) and +38‰ GtC/yr (δ18OCO2) with ~30% uncertainty. Comparing recent model results and observations, underestimation of the three isotope slope and the maximum Δ17OCO2 value in the model were clarified, suggesting a smaller O2 photolysis contribution than that of the model. Simultaneous observations of δ18OCO2, δ17OCO2, and N2O mixing ratios can elucidate triple oxygen isotopes in CO2 and clarify complex interactions among physical, chemical, and photochemical processes occurring in the middle atmosphere.
