北大别白垩纪镁铁－超镁铁岩的铂族元素地球化学研究

采用镍锍火试金法结合ICP-MS分析了12个北大别白垩纪镁铁-超镁铁岩样品的Ir,Ru,Rh,Pt和Pd的含量,结果显示铂族元素（PGE）的含量较低,原始地幔标准化后的PGE分布模式呈正斜率型,PPGE相对原始地幔略微亏损,而IPGE强烈亏损,Pd/Ir值远高于相应的地幔比值。这些镁铁-超镁铁岩中PGE的强烈分异是地幔低程度的部分熔融过程中,PPGE主要受硫化物控制,而Ir则存在于非硫化物相如尖晶石,可能还有合金之中造成的。同时,铂族元素的分布特征表明这些镁铁-超镁铁岩是岩浆结晶分异的产物。     

四川攀枝花新元古代苦橄质岩脉的铂族元素地球化学特征

四川攀枝花地区出露有新元古代苦橄质岩脉。本文研究表明这些苦橄质岩脉的铂族元素(PGE)含量较高(19.7~29.0 ng/g),原始地幔标准化后的PGE分布模式呈Pt-Pd富集型,Pd/Ir值(5.64~11.33)与高镁玄武岩和科马提岩相似。同时,这些岩石显示在形成过程中没有经历硫化物和PGE合金矿物的熔离,其原始岩浆起源于地幔较高程度的部分熔融,可能与地幔柱的影响有关。通过扣除铬尖晶石和橄榄石结晶分异对PGE造成的影响,得到原始岩浆的PGE组成特征为Ir、Ru、Rh相对于Pt、Pd明显亏损,在源区已无硫化物存在的条件下,这很可能是由于地幔部分熔融过程中有IPGE合金矿物残留在地幔源区。攀枝花地区苦橄质岩脉可能与该地区冷水箐Cu-Ni硫化物矿床具有相似的原始岩浆组成。     

大别造山带祝家铺辉长岩的铂族元素特征

采用镍锍火试金法结合ICP-MS分析了祝家铺14个辉长岩样品中的Ir，Ru，Rh，Pt和Pd的含量。结果显示其PGE的含量较低，原始地幔标准化后的PGE分布模式呈正斜率型，PPGE相对原始地幔略微亏损，而IPGE强烈亏损，Pd／Ir值(22—138)远高于相应的地幔比值，表明铂族元素发生了分异。对祝家铺辉长岩的铂族元素研究表明，在其源区发生过硫化物的分异作用，地壳的混入可能促进了硫化物的饱和。祝家铺辉长岩中铂族元素的分异是因为在地幔部分熔融和岩浆演化过程中，PPGE主要受硫化物控制，而Ir则存在于非硫化物相如尖晶石、可能还有合金之中。     

大别造山带毛屋超镁铁岩的铂族元素研究

采用镍锍火试金法结合ICP-MS分析了毛屋斜方辉石岩和石榴二辉岩样品中的Ir、Ru、Rh、Pt和Pd的含量,结果显示其铂族元素(PGE)的含量随岩石类型无规律性的变化,原始地幔标准化后的铂族元素分布模式呈负斜率,Pd、Ir发生了分异。毛屋超镁铁岩铂族元素特征的形成受岩石中铂族元素的存在相制约,PPGE富集在富Cu硫化物,而IPGE以类似残留相、不熔的单硫化物固熔体形式存在,其中地壳混染也起了一定的作用;同时,成岩过程中流体的存在造成了Pt和Pd的活化。因此,单硫化物固熔体和流体的共同作用形成了毛屋超镁铁岩类似残留地幔岩的铂族元素分布特征。     

新疆哈密白石泉含铜镍镁铁-超镁铁质岩体铂族元素特征

新疆哈密白石泉镁铁-超镁铁质岩体的铂族元素研究表明,岩体的铂族元素总含量较低,原始地幔标准化模式具镁铁质岩石的特征,并具Pt 正异常,且铂族元素的分异主要受结晶分异作用的影响.岩体的Cu/Pd、Se/S、Ti/Pd值表明其发生过硫化物的熔离作用.Pd/Ir、Ni/Cu特征表明了岩体系高镁玄武岩岩浆的产物.铂族元素特征揭示了白石泉岩体硫化物的熔离作用是由原始岩浆结晶分异导致的,岩体的形成是原始岩浆发生橄榄石等的结晶,导致硫化物的熔离作用后,其残余岩浆演化的结果.     

黔西玄武岩铂、钯地球化学特征与存在状态

黔西玄武岩中铂族元素丰度较高，其含量变化顺序为Pt〉Pd〉Ru〉Ir〉Rh，表现为Pt、Pd富集，而Os、Ir、Ru、Rh亏损，说明在地幔熔融形成玄武岩的过程中，铂族元素已发生了明显的分异。在分析黔西玄武岩中Pt、Pd岩石载体所处的大地构造背景、含铂（族）矿床的可能类型和岩石化学特征与Pt、Pd可能存在状态的关系的基础上，研究了黔西玄武岩中Pt、Pd存在状态。结果表明，其状态分属硫化物态．金属互化物态、类质同像亲石态和吸附态，且各状态丰度值依次减少。     

云南中旬地区烂泥塘低温热液型Cu-Au矿床铂族元素(PGE)地球化学特征

采用ICP-MS分析方法研究烂泥塘浅成低温热液型Cu-Au矿床中黄铜矿铂族元素(PGE),结果显示黄铜矿的∑PCE较低,其值为5.46×109～19.0×10-9.原始地幔标准化PGE配分模式呈Ru、Pd相对于Ir、Pt富集的趋势.Pd/Ir、Ru/Ir、Pt/Ru、Pd/Pt比值分别变化在2.35～21.9、15.6～42.3、0.02～0.20和4.83～21.8之间.除Pt/Ru比值低于原始地幔外,其他比值均高于原始地幔,这表明黄铜矿的Ir、Ru、Pt和Pd之间发生了分异.黄铜矿中相对高的Ru和Pd含量可能是热液流体对早期矿化斑岩选择淋滤的结果.     

云南中甸地区烂泥塘低温热液型Cu-Au矿床铂族元素(PGE)地球化学特征

采用ICP-MS分析方法研究烂泥塘浅成低温热液型Cu-Au矿床中黄铜矿铂族元素(PGE),结果显示黄铜矿的∑PGE较低,其值为5.46×10-9～19.0×10-9。原始地幔标准化PGE配分模式呈Ru、Pd相对于Ir、Pt富集的趋势。Pd/Ir、Ru/Ir、Pt/Ru、Pd/Pt比值分别变化在2.35～21.9、15.6～42.3、0.02～0.20和4.83～21.8之间。除Pt/Ru比值低于原始地幔外,其他比值均高于原始地幔,这表明黄铜矿的Ir、Ru、Pt和Pd之间发生了分异。黄铜矿中相对高的Ru和Pd含量可能是热液流体对早期矿化斑岩选择淋滤的结果。     

云南金宝山铂钯矿床铂族元素地球化学及找矿意义

金宝山是中国目前发现的最大的独立铂钯矿床,该岩体基性程度高,主要由橄榄石、单斜辉石组成,含大量铬铁矿〔w(Cr)约为0.5%〕。铂钯矿石呈稀疏浸染状,硫化物含量少,高铂族元素、低铜镍含量。矿体与超基性围岩界线不明显,且二者具有相似的微量、稀土元素参数和微量、稀土、铂族元素标准化配分模式,表明两者的原始岩浆具有相似的性质。超基性围岩具有高的Pd/Ir、Ni/Cu比值和Pb负异常,相反,铂钯矿石显示为低的Pd/Ir、Ni/Cu比值和Pb正异常,两者具有相似的Cu/Pd、Cu/Pt比值(≤原始地幔值),表明铂钯矿石形成于地幔柱S低度饱和环境,超基性围岩可能形成于S饱和/不饱和的地球化学界面。铂族元素地球化学的差异表明含少量富铂族元素的硫化物的含矿岩浆可能注入于稍前侵入的、且未完全固结的超基性围岩中,形成似层状矿体。峨眉地幔柱早期硫低度饱和、融离出少量硫化物以及铂族元素在硫化物/硅酸盐相中极高的分配系数是导致金宝山矿石富铂钯、贫铜镍的根本原因。金宝山是极少有的全岩体Cu/Pd、Cu/Pt值均小于原始地幔值的矿床,表明该岩体的岩浆经历了硫化物富集铂族元素的过程,推测靠近峨眉地幔柱喷发中心的基性-超基性岩体是寻找铂族元素矿床最佳远景区之一。     

煎茶岭硫化镍矿床的铂族元素地球化学特征及其意义

采用ICP-MS分析方法对煎茶岭硫化镍矿床岩石及矿石的铂族元素地球化学研究表明,煎茶岭矿床蛇纹岩的Cu/Pd值低于原生地幔岩浆的Cu/Pd值,说明岩浆熔离作用较弱,其Au/Pd值反映存在后期变质热液成矿作用镍矿石的Pd/Ir比值变化较小,指示其多数矿石属于岩浆型,尽管岩浆活动弱,但以岩浆成矿作用为主。该硫化镍矿床的铂族元素特征参数(Pt/(Pt Pd)、(Pt Pd)/(Ru Ir Os)、Pd/Ir及Cu/(Ni Cu)等)具有过渡特征,这与其处于过渡的构造环境、特殊的岩浆性质和复杂的成矿作用有关煎茶岭镍矿床成矿过程中有壳源物质的混染,整体上岩、矿石铂族元素含量较低,这与其岩浆熔离作用弱,PGE成矿作用不发育等因素有关     

Platinum-Group Element Geochemical Characteristics of the Picrites and High-Ti Basalts in the Binchuan Area,Yunnan Province

The Binchuan area of Yunnan is located in the western part of the Emeishan large igneous province in the western margin of the Yangtze Block.In the present study,the Wuguiqing profile in thickness of about 1440 m is mainly composed of high-Ti basalts,with minor picrites in the lower part and andesites,trachytes,and rhyolites in the upper part.The picrites have relatively higher platinum-group element（PGE） contents（ΣPGE=16.3-28.2 ppb）,with high Cu/Zr and Pd/Zr ratios,and low S contents（5.03-16.9 ppm）,indicating the parental magma is S-unsaturated and generated by high degree of partial melting of the Emeishan large igneous province（ELIP） mantle source.The slightly high Cu/Pd ratios（11 000-24 000） relative to that of the primitive mantle suggest that 0.007%sulfides have been retained in the mantle source.The PGE contents of the high-Ti basalts exhibit a wider range（ΣPGE=0.517-30.8 ppb）.The samples in the middle and upper parts are depleted in PGE and haveε_Nd（260 Ma） ratios ranging from -2.8 to -2.2,suggesting that crustal contamination of the parental magma during ascent triggered sulfur saturation and segregation of about 0.446%-0.554% sulfides,and the sulfide segregation process may also provide the ore-forming material for the magmatic Cu-Ni-PGE sulfide deposits close to the studied basalts.The samples in this area show Pt-Pd type primitive mantle-normalized PGE patterns,and the Pd/Ir ratios are higher than that of the primitive mantle（Pd/Ir=1）,indicating that the obvious differentiation between Ir-group platinum-group elements（IPGE） and Pd-group platinum-group elements（PPGE） are mainly controlled by olivine or chromites fractionation during magma evolution.The Pd/Pt ratios of most samples are higher than the average ratio of mantle（Pd/Pt=0.55）,showing that the differentiation happened between Pt and Pd.The differentiation in picrites may be relevant to Pt hosted in discrete refractory Pt-alloy phase in the mantle;whereas the differentiation in the high-Ti basalts is probably associated with the fractionation of Fe-Pt alloys,coprecipitating with Ir-Ru-Os alloys.Some high-Ti basalt samples exhibit negative Ru anomalies,possibly due to removal of laurite collected by the early crystallized chromites.     

The source of platinum group elements in basalts of the ophiolite complex of the Kamchatsky Mys Peninsula (Eastern Kamchatka)

Contents of platinum group elements (PGE—Os, Ir, Ru, Rh, Pt, and Pd) and rhenium in basalts of different geochemical types from the ophiolite complex of the Kamchatsky Mys Peninsula have been determined by the isotope dilution-mass spectrometry method. The total contents of PGE in different basalts are commensurate (1.4-3.6 ppb), but the element ratios vary considerably. A specific feature of the rocks is the low degree of PGE fractionation (Pd/Ir = 0.9-6.6, Pt/Pd = 1.0-7.3), which makes them similar to the Hawaiian tholeiitic basalts and picrites. The most fractionated PGE pattern is observed for alkali basalt (Pd/Ir = 6.6), and the least fractionated one, for E-MORB (Pd/Ir = 1.7). The similarity of the PGE patterns of basalts of different geochemical types suggests their similar mantle sources. We propose a model explaining the geochemical features of the basalts of the Kamchatsky Mys ophiolite complex by an impurity of the Earth’s core material in the plume source. The Ir/Pd-Ru/Pd and Pd/10-Ir-Ru discrimination diagrams can be used to identify enriched (plume) basalts based on their PGE content.     

金川超大型铜镍硫化物矿床的铂族元素地球化学特征

对金川超大型铜镍岩浆硫化物矿床岩石、矿石的铂族元素地球化学特征研究表明 ,金川岩体的平均Cu/Pd值远大于原生地幔岩浆的Cu/Pd值 ,说明其岩石为因硫化物析离而失去Pd的岩浆所结晶 ;且岩石的PGE具有部分熔融趋势 ,与地幔橄榄岩接近 ,这些均指示存在岩浆熔离作用。该矿床岩石、矿石的PGE球粒陨石标准化分布模式比较对应 ,均可分为两种类型 ,反映了岩浆多次侵入、熔离分异同时成岩成矿的特征。另外 ,PGE S关系分析表明其成岩成矿过程中有少量地壳物质混染。PGE地球化学特征参数还指示了其高镁拉斑玄武质母岩浆的性质。     

云南鸡街碱性超基性岩铂族元素地球化学特征

本文首次报道了攀西裂谷南段云南省鸡街碱性超基性岩中铂族元素(PGE)的地球化学特征。采用改进的Carius管法测定了霞霓钠辉岩、霓霞岩和磷霞岩中的低含量PGE。PPGE与IPGE呈现强烈分馏,推断幔源岩在低程度部分熔融过程中Pt、Pd表现为相似的不相容性,而Ir、Ru表现为相容性,这种分馏效应随着结晶分异作用的进行而逐渐增强。3种岩石均出现Ru的负异常及Pt、Pd的解耦,说明母岩浆经历了早期的橄榄石晶出,在结晶分异过程中Pd较Pt更不相容。由于岩浆上升过程中的压力减小和结晶分异作用导致的成份变化使岩浆可以达到硫的局部饱和而熔离,表现为部分样品中Cu/Pd远高于原始地幔值。本文通过碱性超基性岩与金伯利岩、煌斑岩和邻区碱性、过碱性玄武岩PGE特征的对比,探讨了其岩浆源区及演化特征。     

GEOCHEMICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF PLATINUM GROUP ELEMENTS IN JINCHUAN SUPER-LARGE SULFIDE COPPER-NICKEL DEPOSIT, JINCHANG CITY, GANSU PROVINCE, CHINA

The platinum-group element geochemistry of rocks and ores from Jinchuan super-large copper-nickel sulfide deposit is systemically studied in this paper. The Cu/Pd mean ratio of Jinchuan intrusion is lower than that of original mantle magma, which indicates that these ultrabasic rocks were crystallized from magma that lost Pd in the form of melting segregation of sulfides. The PGE of the rocks show trend of partial melting, similar to that of mantle peridotite, which shows that magma formation occurs during rock-forming and ore-forming processes. The chondrite normalized PGE patterns of the rocks and ores are well related to each other, which signifies the signatures of multi-episode magmatic intrusion, melting and differentiation in the formation processes of rocks and ores. In addition, analyses about the relation between PGE and S, and study on Re-Os isotopes indicate that few contamination of the crustal substances occurred during the magmatic intrusion and the formation of deposit. However, contamination by crustal substances helps to supply part of the S for the enrichment of PGE. Meanwhile, the hydrothermal process is also advantageous for the enrichment of PGE, especially lbr Pt and Pd, due to deep melting segregation. The characteristic parameters （such as Pt/（Pt＋Pd）, （Pt＋Pd）/（Ru＋Ir＋Os）, Pd/Ir, Cu/（Ni＋Cu）, and so on.） for platinum-group elements for Jinchuan sulfide copper-nickel deposit show the same features as those for sulfide copper-nickel deposit related to basic magma, which also illustrates its original magma property representative of Mg-high tholeiite. Therefore, it is the marie （not ultramafic） magma that resulted in the formation of the superlarge sulfide copper-nickel deposit enriched in Cu and PGE. To sum up, the geochemical characteristics of platinum-group elements in rocks and ores from Jinchuan copper-nickel sulfide deposit are constrained by the continental rift tectonic environment, the parent magma features, the enriched mantel magma source, the complex metallogenesis and PGE geochemical signatures, and this would be rather significant for the study about the genetic mechanism of copper-nickel sulfide deposits.     

The behaviour of platinum-group elements in basalts from the East Greenland rifted margin

. The continental flood basalts of the East Greenland volcanic rifted margin were extruded during continental breakup above the ancestral Iceland mantle plume at 55 Ma. Three distinct magma types, the low-Ti, high-Ti and very high-Ti series (LTS, HTS and VHTS respectively), are found intercalated in the ~6-km-thick Plateau Lava sequence. Incompatible trace elements indicate that the LTS are derived from a more depleted mantle source compared to HTS and VHTS. The LTS is characterised by increasing Cu (105 to 248 ppm) and Pd (7 to 24 ppb), constant Cu/Pd ratio (~10,000), and decreasing Ir (1.1 to <0.05 ppb) and Ru (1.8 to <0.3 ppb) concentrations during magmatic differentiation (16 to 7 wt% MgO). The constant Cu/Pd ratio reflects silicate- and chromite-dominated fractionation without concurrent segregation of sulphide. S-undersaturated differentiation is also indicated in the HTS, which also displays increasing Pd (6-16 ppb) and decreasing Ir concentrations (1 to <0.05 ppb) during differentiation, and the Cu/Pd ratios for the entire series average 21,000. However, some HTS samples have elevated Cu/Pd ratios (up to 33,000). Cu/Pd ratios in the HTS do not correlate with MgO, and this is interpreted to reflect varying Cu/Pd ratios of HTS parental magmas rather than S-saturated differentiation. During S-undersaturated differentiation of the LTS and HTS, Pt/Pd ratios decrease from 1.3 to 0.11 and 1.1 to 0.2 respectively, which indicates that Pd is much more incompatible than Pt during S-undersaturated differentiation. The VHTS consists exclusively of highly evolved samples with low MgO (6.6-6.1 wt%) and Pd/Ir ratios 98-228. Here, Cu/Pd ratios increase from 17,500 to 35,000 with decreasing Cr concentrations which indicate that these magmas experienced silicate fractionation with concurrent segregation of sulphide. The LTS represent melting of a depleted source and show high PGE concentrations and constant Cu/Pd ratios during S-undersaturated differentiation. Melting of a normal depleted upper mantle source generates S-saturated melts (MORB), and the depleted LTS source is therefore considered an extraordinary S-poor component within the ancestral Iceland plume. Of the three series, the VHTS contain the largest contribution from enriched mantle portions. The VHTS have similar PGE but much higher Nb concentrations for instance compared to the most evolved LTS and HTS samples, indicating that the enriched source contributes Nb but not PGE.     

Platinum-group elemental geochemistry of mafic and ultramafic rocks from the Xigaze ophiolite, southern Tibet

The Xigaze ophiolite in the central part of the Yarlung–Zangbo suture zone, southern Tibet, has a well-preserved sequence of sheeted dykes, basalts, cumulates and mantle peridotites at Jiding and Luqu. Both the basalts and diabases at Jiding have similar compositions with SiO₂ ranging from 45.9 to 53.5 wt%, MgO from 3.1 to 6.8 wt% and TiO₂ from 0.87 to 1.21 wt%. Their Mg^#s [100Mg/(Mg + Fe)] range from 40 to 60, indicating crystallization from relatively evolved magmas. They have LREE-depleted, chondrite-normalized REE diagrams, suggesting a depleted mantle source. These basaltic rocks have slightly negative Nb- and Ti-anomalies, suggesting that the Xigaze ophiolite represents a fragment of mature MORB lithosphere modified in a suprasubduction zone environment. The mantle peridotites at Luqu are high depleted with low CaO (0.3–1.2 wt%) and Al₂O₃ (0.04–0.42 wt%). They display V-shaped, chondrite-normalized REE patterns with (La/Gd)_N ratios ranging from 3.17 to 64.6 and (Gd/Yb)_N from 0.02 to 0.20, features reflecting secondary metasomatism by melts derived from the underlying subducted slab. Thus, the geochemistry of both the basaltic rocks and mantle peridotites suggests that the Xigaze ophiolite formed in a suprasubduction zone.Both the diabases and basalts have Pd/Ir ratios ranging from 7 to 77, similar to MORB. However, they have very low PGE abundances, closely approximating the predicted concentration in a silicate melt that has fully equilibrated with a fractionated immiscible sulfide melt, indicating that the rocks originated from magmas that were S-saturated before eruption. Moderate degrees of partial melting and early precipitation of PGE alloys explain their high Pd/Ir ratios and negative Pt-anomalies. The mantle peridotites contain variable amounts of Pd (5.99–13.5 ppb) and Pt (7.92–20.5 ppb), and have a relatively narrow range of Ir (3.47–5.01 ppb). In the mantle-normalized Ni, PGE, Au and Cu diagram, they are relatively rich in Pd and depleted in Cu. There is a positive correlation between CaO and Pd. The Pd enrichment is possibly due to secondary enrichment by metasomatism. Al₂O₃ and Hf do not correlate with Ir, but show positive variations with Pt, Pd and Au, indicating that some noble metals can be enriched by metasomatic fluids or melts carrying a little Al and Hf. We propose a model in which the low PGE contents and high Pd/Ir ratios of the basaltic rocks reflect precipitation of sulfides and moderate degrees of partial melting. The high Pd mantle peridotites of Xigaze ophiolites were formed by secondary metasomatism by a boninitic melt above a subduction zone.     

Platinum-group element constraints on source composition and magma evolution of the Kerguelen Plateau using basalts from ODP Leg 183

Seventeen basalts from Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Leg 183 to the Kerguelen Plateau (KP) were analyzed for the platinum-group elements (PGEs: Ir, Ru, Rh, Pt, and Pd), and 15 were analyzed for trace elements. Relative concentrations of the PGEs ranged from ∼0.1 (Ir, Ru) to ∼5 (Pt) times primitive mantle. These relatively high PGE abundances and fractionated patterns are not accounted for by the presence of sulfide minerals; there are only trace sulfides present in thin-section. Sulfur saturation models applied to the KP basalts suggest that the parental magmas may have never reached sulfide saturation, despite large degrees of partial melting (∼30%) and fractional crystallization (∼45%).First order approximations of the fractionation required to produce the KP basalts from an ∼30% partial melt of a spinel peridotite were determined using the PELE program. The model was adapted to better fit the physical and chemical observations from the KP basalts, and requires an initial crystal fractionation stage of at least 30% olivine plus Cr-spinel (49:1), followed by magma replenishment and fractional crystallization (RFC) that included clinopyroxene, plagioclase, and titanomagnetite (15:9:1). The low Pd values ([Pd/Pt]_pm < 1.7) for these samples are not predicted by currently available K_d values. These Pd values are lowest in samples with relatively higher degrees of alteration as indicated by petrographic observations. Positive anomalies are a function of the behavior of the PGEs; they can be reproduced by Cr-spinel, and titanomagnetite crystallization, followed by titanomagnetite resorption during the final stages of crystallization. Our modeling shows that it is difficult to reproduce the PGE abundances by either depleted upper or even primitive mantle sources. Crustal contamination, while indicated at certain sites by the isotopic compositions of the basalts, appears to have had a minimal affect on the PGEs. The PGE abundances measured in the Kerguelen Plateau basalts are best modeled by melting a primitive mantle source to which was added up to 1% of outer core material, followed by fractional crystallization of the melt produced. This reproduces both the abundances and patterns of the PGEs in the Kerguelen Plateau basalts. An alternative model for outer core PGE abundances requires only 0.3% of outer core material to be mixed into the primitive mantle source. While our results are clearly model dependent, they indicate that an outer core component may be present in the Kerguelen plume source.     

华北克拉通中东部新太古代晚期变质火山岩及动力学体制

热状态和壳幔岩浆作用是理解早期地壳形成演化动力学机制的关键。华北克拉通是世界范围内为数不多的保存有大量新太古代晚期(约26~25亿年)变质火山岩记录的克拉通之一,对揭示全球新太古代晚期壳-幔动力学演化过程具有重要的指示意义。在我们研究组近期关于华北克拉通中东部中新太古代热状态和地壳厚度研究基础上,本文收集并整理了726个华北克拉通中东部(包括中部带)新太古代晚期变质火山岩样品的有效地球化学资料。按照现代通用岩石地球化学标准来分类,这些样品主要包括超铁镁质岩石(其中含苦橄岩、苦橄质玄武岩和科马提岩,~7%)、稀土未分异型玄武岩(~14%)、稀土分异型玄武岩(~27%)、玻安岩(~4%)、高镁安山岩(~12%)、低镁安山岩(~26%)和英安岩-流纹岩(~10%)。然而不同区块之间火山岩岩石组合及其量比存在较大差异,其中吉林南部和赞皇等地区以大量稀土分异型玄武岩、高镁和低镁安山岩为主,含有少量的长英质火山岩;胶东、登封和阜新等地区以稀土未分异和稀土分异型玄武岩占有绝对优势,存在少量安山岩和长英质火山岩;冀北、冀东北部、冀东南部(迁安-滦县)、五台-云中山、辽北、辽南和鲁西等地区岩石组合比较复杂,最突出的特点是出现不同比例的玻安岩,组合有稀土未分异和大量稀土分异型玄武岩、高镁和低镁安山岩,出现少量超铁镁质岩石和长英质火山岩。岩石成因研究揭示稀土未分异型和分异型玄武岩、高镁安山岩和玻安岩主要形成于俯冲板片流体、熔体和沉积物熔体交代地幔的部分熔融,而低镁安山岩、英安岩和其它长英质火山岩则大都经历了上述俯冲相关初始岩浆的结晶分异或地壳物质熔融和地壳混染等过程。新太古代晚期胶东地区表现为相对较薄的地壳厚度和较高的地热梯度(18℃/km),而冀东地区表现为厚的地壳厚度和低的地热梯度(最低8.7℃/km),满足现代俯冲地热梯度需求,其它区域的地温梯度介于热俯冲和现代冷俯冲之间。综合以上资料,我们认为新太古代晚期板块构造体制已经是最主要的壳-幔动力学体制,地幔柱构造体制和板块构造-地幔柱联合作用体制可能仍然在局部地区存在,但其作用范围和强度已经明显减小。因此,随着地幔温度的下降,中太古代到新太古代晚期地幔柱和板片俯冲的转化可能是相互关联、此消彼长的动力学过程,而不是一个突变过程。     

PGE geochemistry of low-Ti high-Mg siliceous mafic rocks within the Archaean Central Indian Bastar Craton: implications for magma fractionation

Boninite-norite (BN) suites emplaced in an intracratonic setting in Archaean Cratons, are reported from many parts of the world. Such high-Mg low-Ti siliceous rocks are emplaced during Neoarchaean-Paleoproterozoic. The Archaean central Indian Bastar Craton also contains such a boninite-norite suite, which occurs in the form of dykes and volcanics. The spatial and temporal correlation of these high-Mg low-Ti siliceous rocks with similar rocks occurring around the northern Bastar and Dharwar Cratons probably represent a Bastar-Dharwar Large Igneous Province during the Neoarchaean-Paleoproterozoic. Platinum group element (PGE) abundances in these rocks provide constraints on their geochemical evolution during the Neoarchaean-Paleoproterozoic. The PGE geochemistry of the boninite-norite suite from the southern part of the central Indian Bastar Craton is presented to understand their behaviour during magma fractionation. In primitive mantle-normalized plots all samples have similar PGE fractionated patterns that are enriched in Pd, Pt and Rh relative to Ru. The Pd/Ru ratios for eight samples range from 2.0 to 7.0 which is higher than primitive mantle (primitive mantle Pd/Ru ≈1.2). The Pd/Pt ratios range between 0.2–2.5 with an average value of 0.7 which is near chondritic (primitive mantle Pd/Pt ≈0.5). PGE variations in these rocks together with those of major and other trace elements are consistent with a model involving olivine fractionation along with chromite as a cotectic phase. The Pt fractionation from Pd and Rh is controlled by both olivine and chromite crystallization at an early stage during high temperature crystal fractionation when the Pt was strongly compatible and Pd and Rh were incompatible. Strong negative correlations of the S content with iron and TiO₂ plus lithophile element contents of the rock suggest a decrease of the S solubility in the parental high-Mg magma and separation of an immiscible sulfide liquid with decreasing temperature. Palladium plus other available chalcophile elements (e.g., Re, Au, Ag) have been fractionated in this immiscible sulfide liquid after considerable olivine fractionation of the magma.
