Late Eocene biostratigraphic age for andesitic volcanic host rocks formed in an island environment at the Cobre Panama porphyry Cu-Mo-Au-Ag deposit, Panama

The giant Cobre Panama porphyry Cu-Mo-Au-Ag deposit in western Panama is hosted by an undated andesitic volcanic sequence, the Petaquilla batholith (32.20±0.76-28.28±0.61 Ma), and porphyry stocks (28.96±0.62-27.48±0.68 Ma). Here we present a biostratigraphic age for the volcanic sequence based on st...
