The Zhunuo ore district, at the western end of the Gangdese porphyry Cu belt, hosts significant Cu mineralization and newly recognized W mineralization dominated by scheelite. However, the genetic relationship between scheelite and porphyry mineralization, and the evolution of ore-forming fluids remain poorly constrained. To address this, scheelite samples from multiple locations were analyzed for major elements (EMPA), in situ trace elements (LA-ICP-MS), and internal textures (cathodoluminescence, CL). These data, combined with machine learning methods, were used to determine scheelite genetic types and reconstruct fluid evolution. REE patterns and CL textures reveal three scheelite generations in Yalongri (early Sch I c, middle Sch I b, late Sch I a), two in Zhigunong (early Sch II a, late Sch II b), and one in Xiongbaxi (Sch III). Low Na (0–329 ppm) and Nb (3.9–39 ppm) relative to high ΣREE + Y-Eu (16–3857 ppm), indicate that the dominant substitution mechanism is 3Ca²⁺ = 2REE³⁺ + □Ca (□Ca = Ca vacancy). δEu values > 1 in Sch I a, Sch I b, Sch II a, and Sch II b indicate reducing fluids, whereas δEu < in Sch I c and Sch III reflects oxidizing conditions. Variations in REE, Mo, and Sr contents suggest that ore-forming fluids in Yalongri evolved from oxidizing to reducing conditions, with late-stage scheelite undergoing dissolution–reprecipitation. Zhigunong records two reducing stages: an early REE-rich-Mo-poor stage and a later REE-poor-Mo-rich stage. Xiongbaxi records a single oxidizing, REE-rich, Mo-rich stage. Scheelite exhibits low-to-moderate Sr/Mo ratios (0.02–6.10), consistent with a magmatic–hydrothermal origin, and relatively uniform Y/Ho ratios (12–59) indicating stable crystallization conditions. A Random Forest model classifies scheelite into orogenic, porphyry, skarn, and greisen types. Overall, the results indicate that ore-forming fluids evolved from oxidizing to reducing conditions, favoring metal transport and enrichment. Integrated geochemical and machine learning evidence suggest, strong potential for porphyry-type Cu-W(-Mo) mineralization in Yalongri and Zhigunong, and skarn-type W-Mo mineralization in Xiongbaxi, providing important guidance for future exploration in the western Gangdese metallogenic belt.
