The data collected during the research can be found in a dedicated data repository: doi.org/10.48804/QEBXIC The manuscript is currently under review by the examination committee.

Folders are divided by analytical methods into:

• Raman Spectroscopy: contains the scripts used for processing and plotting the spectroscopic measurements of minerals and fluids in the Raman microscope
• Mineral Chemistry: contains the scripts used for processing and plotting the chemical analyses of major and minor elements in minerals obtained with EPMA
• Microthermometry: contains the scripts used for processing and plotting the measurements of fluid inclusion properties in the heating-freezing stage
• LAICPMS: contains the scripts used for processing and plotting the chemical analyses of major and trace elements in fluids and minerals obtained by LAICPMS
