Fluid inclusions trapped in high-temperature minerals formed during the early stage of a magmatic hydrothermal system record the initial fluid information before mineralization, and their compositions can be used to clarify whether the metals have been already significantly enriched in the magmatic stage before fluid exsolution.

The architecture and compositional evolution of magma reservoirs in the middle to upper crust remain incompletely understood. - The midcrust remains poorly constrained, with few opportunities for direct observation. - There is a need for studies that integrate bulk-rock and mineral geochemistry with textural observations to reconstruct the magmatic evolution of mid-crustal sections.

Geological fieldworks, followed by mineralogical and petrographic investigations prove that gabbroids and granitoids formed as a result of two different stages of magmatic activity, delimited by the intrusion of pre-granite basic dikes and subsequent regional metamorphism.

Abstract Magma reservoirs in middle to upper crust play a crucial role in the evolution of continents and volcanic activity, yet their architecture, compositional evolution, and melt extraction mechanisms remain incompletely understood.

Further studies are needed to investigate the magmatic evolution of other mid-crustal sections. - Research should focus on integrating bulk-rock and mineral geochemistry with textural observations to reconstruct the magmatic evolution of these sections. - The development of new analytical techniques and methods is necessary to improve our understanding of magma reservoirs and volcanic plumbing systems.
