The porphyry copper deposits in the Tethyan metallogenic domain (TMD) are much more poorly documented in contrasting to those in the circumPacific area, from which a classical metallogenic model of porphyry copper deposits was synthesized. Here we try to classify spatially the porphyry copper deposits in the eastern TMD into seven belts basing on previously published data. Besides, two areas were suggested where those deposites without obvious tectonic setting were enclosed. These belts are: Pontides in Turkey, SahandBazman in Central Iran, Chagai in Pakistan, Yulong, Zhongdian, Bangonghu, and Gangdese in China, respectively; and the two areas are SE Asia and Anatolides in Turkey respectively. According to published geochronological data, the porphyry copper deposits can be merged into six main metallogenic epochs: the Early Triassic, Late Triassic, middle Cretaceous, Late CretaceousEarly Paleocene, middle Eocene, and middle Miocene, which were related with the subduction of the Paleo, and NeoTethyan Oceans and subsequent collisions respectively. Of these belts, the SahandBazman and the Yulong belts were quitely comparable; both formed in the same latecollisional transformation settings.
