The Haftcheshmeh Porphyry copper deposit is located 28km north of Varzaghan (East -Azerbayjan province). It is associated with quartzdioritic to granodioritic intrusive of Oligo- Miocene ages, which are intensively altered. The porphyritic bodies are intruded by a series of barren andesitic dykes. The principal aim of this paper is to consider the geochemistry and the origin of magma. Trends of major and trace elements indicate a continuous compositional range and a comagmatic origin for these rocks. However, trends of compatible-incompatible elements indicate the important role of fractional crystallization and contamination of the magma with upper crust in genesis of these rocks. Depletion in Ti, Nb and Sr and enrichment in K, Th and Rb are obvious in spider diagrams of these samples. The enrichment in LILE and depletion in HFSE reveal the I-type metaluminous magmatism of volcanic arcs (VAG). َAdditionally, the discrimination tectonic setting diagrams indicate I-type continental volcanic arc magmatism for this intrusion. The Microprobe analysis also confirms that the Biotite crystallized from typical calc-alkaline magma.
