Popis: The Nanling Range, South China, was world-famous for hosting abundant granitoid-related copper-lead-zinc (Cu-Pb-Zn) polymetallic ore deposits and quartz vein-type wolframite (W) ore deposits, both of which have roughly similar formation ages predominately between 150 and 160 Ma with a peak of ca. 156 Ma. In this study, accessory minerals from typical Cu-Pb-Zn-bearing and W-bearing granitic rocks are compared in terms of elemental and isotopic compositions. Apatite from W-bearing granites in the Xihuashan pluton has lower eNd(t) value (−11.9 to −8.6) than that from Cu-Pb-Zn-bearing granitic rocks in Shuikoushan with eNd(t) value of −8.7 to −4.2 and initial 87Sr/86Sr ratio of 0.7097–0.7109. Zircon grains in Xihuashan, yielded eHf(t) value from −14.9 to −11.4, δ18O value from 8.6‰ to 10.4‰, and highly variable and negative δ7Li value (−45.8‰ to −3.8‰), whereas those in Shuikoushan have relatively higher eHf(t) value (−10.6 to −8.1), lower δ18O value (8.4‰–9.7‰), and highly variable δ7Li values from −12.7‰ to +17.6‰. In situ Hf-O-Li isotopic compositions of zircon and Sr-Nd isotopes of apatite, suggesting that the Shuikoushan granitic pluton was likely generated from dehydration melting of amphibolite from a metal-fertile mafic source in the middle-to-lower crust, whereas the Xihuashan granitic pluton could be derived from partial melting of metapelite with minor amphibolite in the middle to upper crust. The geochemical records in accessory minerals fingerprint that the Shuikoushan granitic magma was characterized by high Cl content (0.11–1.44 wt%) and logfo2 value (>ΔFMQ+1), whereas the Xihuashan granitic magma have elevated F (3.51–4.80 wt%) and Li (3.49–42.4 ppm) contents with low logfo2 value (
