Magnetite (Fe 3 O 4) is a ubiquitous oxide mineral in rocks and ores with a wide range of applications in metallogenic research and mineral exploration, especially for magmatic-hydrothermal deposits such as porphyry and skarn deposits (Nadoll et al., 2012, Nadoll et al., 2015).Magnetite can host many trace elements (e.g., Ca, Al, Mg, Mn, Cu, Zn, Cr, Ti, V, Ni, Cr, …
