Two-feldspar geothermometry,geobarometry in mesozonal granitic intrusions: Three examples from the Piedmont of Georgia

The equilibrium temperatures for coexisting plagioclase and potassium feldspar pairs have been calculated for various textural varieties of feldspar from 3 post-metamorphic granites from the Georgia Piedmont; the Danburg, Siloam, and Stone Mountain plutons. Assuming an intermediate structural state for the feldspars at time of equilibration, crystallization temperatures match those expected from experimental data for quartz monzonite magmas (650 to 780° C). The variations in solidus temperature, recorded in the feldspars, may be used to estimate relative differences in depth of intrusion. Sharp reversals in plagioclase compositional trends may be caused by isothermal decreases in confining pressure associated with upward migration through the crust. In fine grained and slowly cooled intrusions, albite tends to be lost from the alkali feldspar grains, and recrystallizes as separate unzoned grains of oligoclase, thus erasing the previous thermal history. Perthite exsolution and re-equilibration within the alkali feldspar grains appears to continue down to temperatures of 400° C or so, although the zoned plagioclase does not homogenize. The recrystallization associated with changes in structural state may facilitate exsolution within alkali feldspar grains.

Geochemical characteristics and spectrometric prospecting in the muscovite-bearing pegmatites and granites,southeastern Aswan,Egypt

Rare metal mineralization of Sn, Nb-Ta and W is encountered in the Gebel Dihmit area （GDA）, southeastern Aswan, Egypt. The mineralization is related to muscovite granites and their pegmatite derivatives. The pegmatites are divided into three types according to their main mineral assemblages： K-feldspar-muscovite-tourmaline, K-feldspar-albite-muscovite and albite-K-feldspar-lepidolite veins. Petrogenetic studies indicate that Sn and Nb-Ta mineralization extends from the late-magmatic stage to the pegmatite and hydrothermal stages of the （GDA） suite. The albite-K-feldspar-lepidolite granite is composed dominantly of albite, lepidolote, and quartz, with topaz, K-feldspar and amblygonite. The accessory minerals are zircon, monazite, pollucite, columbite-tantalite, microlite and Ta-rich cassiterite. Phenocrysts of quartz, topaz and K-feldspar contain abundant inclusions of albite laths and occasional lepidolite crystals along growth zones （snowball texture）, indicating simultaneous crystallization from a subsolvus, residual magma. The origin of the pegmatites is attributed to extreme differentiation by fractional crystallization of a granitic magma. The economic potential for rare metals was evaluated in the geochemical discrimination diagrams. Accordingly, some of the pegmatites are not only highly differentiated in terms of alkalis, but also the promising targets for small-scale Ta and, to a less extent, Sn. The pegmatites also provide the first example of Fe-Mn and Nb-Ta fractionation in successive generations of granites to cassiterite-bearing pegmatites, which perfectly ex- hibit similar fractionation trends established for primary columbite-tantalite in the corresponding categories of pegmatites. Uranium and Th of magmatic origin are indicated by the presence of thorite and allanite, whereas evidence of hydrothermal mineralization is the alteration of rock- foring minerals such as feldspar and the formation of secondary minerals such as uranophane..     

南岭锡钨多金属矿区碱长花岗岩的厘定及其意义

南岭地区锡钨多金属矿成矿作用主要与燕山早期花岗岩岩浆活动有关,这些花岗岩一直被认为是黑云母花岗岩、二长花岗岩、细粒二长花岗岩等,少量矿区岩体顶部出现钠长石花岗岩。通过对湖南瑶岗仙钨矿岩体的深入解剖,以及对杮竹园、黄沙坪、锡田、邓阜仙、栗木、梅子窝等矿区花岗岩全面的岩矿鉴定和电子探针分析,确定钨矿区致矿花岗岩的长石主要为碱性长石,其中绝大部分样品中钠长石An<5,因此确定这些花岗岩均属于碱长花岗岩。与成矿有关的由浆液过渡态流体形成的云英岩包体中的钠长石更加富Na,An<3。碱长花岗岩的成分以及钠长石成分在岩体顶部约1 000 m深度范围内无明显垂向变化。致矿花岗岩体中部分早期花岗岩包体、晚期花岗斑岩,部分花岗岩基以及印支期花岗岩、加里东期花岗闪长岩等,钠(斜)长石An值明显高,很多属更长石、中长石甚至基性长石。这种包含有两种碱性长石的碱长花岗岩由富挥发分的岩浆形成,在岩体顶部附近广泛发生液态不混溶作用,是导致锡钨多金属矿富集成矿的主要分异方式。钨锡矿区碱长花岗岩钠长石An值明显低于区域大花岗岩基或不致矿花岗岩,可作为花岗岩的钨锡成矿评价标志之一。     

文象花岗岩的成分、结构和成因机制

文象花岗岩具有特殊文象结构,研究其三维拓扑结构和形成过程有助于了解花岗质岩石的结晶作用.以北京周口店房山岩体和湖北罗田蕙兰山的文象花岗岩为研究对象,综合利用光学显微镜、扫描电镜、电子探针和电子背散射衍射等技术方法,对岩石矿物组成、结晶学取向和拓扑结构进行了系统研究.结果表明:(1) 文象花岗岩的矿物组成与其形成地质环境有关,石英和长石的含量变化范围很大,其中石英含量通常在20%~45%,但是相同地区同期形成的文象花岗岩具有相对稳定的矿物组成;(2) 长石作为寄主矿物通常呈半自形－自形粗大晶体,可以是碱性长石或斜长石,其端元组分以钾长石和钠长石为主,低温下常分解为条纹长石;(3) 石英在长石寄主矿物中规则穿插生长,在三维空间通常呈近似平行板状、长条状/柱状或非连通枝杈状,并只在特定岩石断面形似象形文字;(4) 正交偏光显微镜下,石英可以具有多种消光位,但是通常在一定范围内同时消光;(5) 石英普遍发育道芬双晶,偶见日本双晶;(6) 条纹长石中钾长石与钠长石对应(100)、(010)、(001) 面和[001]轴近似平行;(7) 多数石英颗粒与寄主长石之间具有密切结晶学取向关系,即石英[1123]轴近似平行长石c[001]轴.该研究证实文象花岗岩是石英和长石同时生长的结果,而长石作为寄主矿物影响并控制着石英的成核与生长方向.      

华南富锂氟含稀有金属花岗岩的成冈分析

雪球结构的产出特征、钠长石电子探针分析及其它间接证据都说明,雪球结构是在岩浆结晶过程中形成的。雪球结构形成与否主要与岩浆熔体中Ｎａ２Ｏ／Ｋ２Ｏ比值和Ｆ、Ｈ２Ｏ含量有关。较大的Ｎａ２Ｏ／Ｋ２Ｏ比值（〉１）例钠长石首先从熔体中晶出;较高的Ｆ含量使岩浆固相线温度大大降低,有利于岩浆分异演化并形成接近端员组分的钠长石和钾长石同的Ｈ２Ｏ含量有利于石英以较快的速度生长并逐渐包裹钠长石形成雪球结构。自形的α－石英斑晶、接近各自端员组分的甲和工石和钠长石等说明该类花岗岩形成温度较低,众多的地质、地球化学依据都证明了,华南富锂氟含稀有金属花岗岩是从过铝富氟富钠的残余熔体中直接结晶而成的。

通过对湖南湘东钨矿三类花岗岩系统的岩矿鉴定和探针分析,确定燕山早期花岗岩中的长石为碱性长石,钠长石An5,大多数样品An3;而印支期花岗岩的斜长石An=10~15,为更长石。因此,确定邓阜仙复式岩体的岩性,分别为印支期的粗粒斑状黑云母二长花岗岩、燕山早期的中粒斑状白云母碱长花岗岩和细粒碱长花岗岩。系统的常量、微量元素地球化学研究也显示出燕山早期岩浆作用明显不同于印支期花岗岩,具有富硅、偏铝、富钙碱等特点,燕山早期花岗岩为碱长花岗岩,和南岭地区与脉型钨矿有关碱长花岗岩一致。成矿与燕山早期花岗岩浆活动有关。     

Retrograde metamorphic reactions in deforming granites and the origin of flame perthite

Abstract Microprobe analyses of feldspars in granite mylonites containing flame perthite give compositions that invariably plot as three distinct clusters on a ternary feldspar diagram: orthoclase (Or_92–97), albite and oligoclase-andesine. The albite occurs as grains in the matrix, as flame-shaped lamellae in orthoclase, and in patches within plagioclase grains. We present a metamorphic model for albite flame growth in the K-feldspar in these rocks that is related to reactions in plagioclase, rather than alkali feldspar exsolution. Flame growth is attributed to replacement and results from a combination of two retrograde reactions and one exchange reaction under greenschist facies conditions. Reaction 1 is a continuous or discontinuous (across the peristerite solvus) reaction in plagioclase, in which the An component forms epidote or zoisite. Most of the albite component liberated by Reaction 1 stays to form albite in the host plagioclase, but some Na migrates to form the flames within the K-feldspar. Reaction 2 is the exchange of K for Na in K-feldspar. Reaction 3 is the retrograde formation of muscovite (as ‘sericite’) and has all of the chemical components of a hydration reaction of K-feldspar. The Si and Al made available in the plagioclase from Reaction 1 are combined with the K liberated from the K-feldspar, to produce muscovite in Reaction 3. The muscovite forms in the plagioclase, rather than the K-feldspar, as a result of the greater mobility of K relative to Al. The composition of the albite flames is controlled by both the peristerite and the alkali feldspar miscibility gaps and depends on the position of these solvi at the pressure and temperature that existed during the reaction. Using an initial plagioclase composition of An₂₀, the total reaction can be summarized as: 20 oligoclase + 1 K-feldspar + 2 H₂O = 2 zoisite + muscovite + 2 quartz + 15 albite_plagioclase+ 1 albite_flame. This model does not require that any additional feldspar framework be accreted at replacement sites: Na and K are the only components that must migrate a significant distance (e.g. from one grain to the next), allowing Al to remain within the altering plagioclase grain. The resulting saussuritization is isovolumetric. The temperature and extent of replacement depends on when, and how much, water infiltrates the rock. The fugacity of the water, and therefore the pressure of the fluid, may have been significantly lower than lithostatic during flame growth.     

Origin of rapakivi granites by stochastic modeling: Vyborg and Salmi Massifs

Grain sequences of Precambrian rapakivi granites of the Vyborg and Salmi Massifs have been compared with the stochastic model for ideal granite. These sequences show that classical rapakivi granites correspond to metasomatically weakly altered granites with a simple loss of Markov transitions from quartz and plagioclase. Observed parameters of the model indirectly indicate rapakivi magma had small volatile content and large viscosity which is also characteristic of many other Precambrian granites.

Geochemistry of K‐feldspar and Muscovite in Rare‐element Pegmatites and Granites from the Totoral Pegmatite Field,San Luis,Argentina

The geochemistry of K‐feldspar for K, P, Sr, Ba, Rb, Cs, Ga, and of muscovite for the same elements plus Nb and Ta, was used for proving the parental relationships of S‐type granites and LCT (Li, Cs, Ta) rare‐element pegmatites in the southernmost pegmatitic field of the Pampean pegmatite province in Argentina. The variation of K/Rb‐Cs, K/Cs‐Rb, K/Rb‐Rb/Sr, K/Rb‐Ba in K‐feldspar from the granites and pegmatites show that they form an association with the evolutional sequence: granites → barren‐ to transitional pegmatites → beryl type, beryl‐columbite‐phosphate pegmatites → complex type of spodumene subtype pegmatites → albite‐spodumene type → albite type pegmatites. This sequence reflects the regional distribution of the different magmatic units. The Ta‐Cs diagram for muscovite reveals that none of the studied pegmatites exceed the threshold established in previous studies for being considered with important tantalum oxide mineralization. The granites and pegmatites constitute a rare‐element pegmatitic field in which different magmatic units form a continuous fractionation trend, extended from the less evolved granitic facies to the most geochemically specialized pegmatites     

Topaz granites in northern Kazakhstan

The paper presents the first data obtained on topaz granites from dikes in columbite-bearing granites of the Kokchetav block, northern Kazakhstan. The columbite-bearing granites (398 ± 3 Ma, Rb-Sr method) compose large massifs and ubiquitously contain columbite as an accessory mineral in amounts from a few to a few dozen grams per ton. The topaz granites make up dikes up to 70–100 m long and 0.4–1.5 m thick, which have sharp contacts with the host granites. The composition of the topaz granites is as follows: albite ～50%, potassic feldspar ～24–26%, quartz ～20%, topaz 3–5%, biotite and muscovite ～1%. Topaz occurs in inner contact zones in the form of large (3–4 cm) crystals, which grew inward from dike contacts and is ubiquitous in the fine-grained groundmass as small (no larger than 0.05 mm) crystals. The ore minerals in the topaz granites (zircon, thorite, bastnaesite, Y-cerite, monazite, Y-fluorite, W-ixiolite, tantalite, columbite, and uraninite) developed as very small grains, which can be identified only under a microprobe and electron microscope. W-ixiolite was found only in topaz crystals. The topaz granites are rich in albite, contain Na > K and F concentrations from 0.2 to 0.97 wt %. Compared to the host columbite-bearing granites, the topaz granites are 10–15 times richer in Ta and Li, 3-8 times richer in Rb, Cs, Nb, Sn, F, and Be but 1.2–2 times poorer in U, Th, and REE. The columbite-bearing granites have Ta/Nb = 1: 20, while this ratio in the topaz granites is 1: 3, a fact highlighting the enrichment of the granites in Ta and their geochemical autonomy with respect to columbite-bearing granites.     

花岗质岩石中微粒交生体的成因研究

在一些花岗质片麻岩中,经常看到分布在长石颗粒周围的细小矿物集合体——微粒交生体。电子探针分析结果表明,微粒交生体主要由钠长石、钾长石和石英组成,其标准矿物平均成分相当于An-Ab-Or体系的“低限熔点”成分。显然,微粒交生体是花岗质片麻岩经部分熔融产生的“低限熔体”的结晶产物。太古宙高级区一些晚构造钾质花岗岩的矿物,化学特征与微粒交生体类似。这意味着在塑性变形过程中产生和聚集的“低限熔体”最终可以形成大规模钾质花岗岩。     

Alterations of cretaceous siltstones and sandstones near basalt contacts (Nûgssuaq,Greenland)

The influence of the intrusion of basaltic dykes and sills was investigated on sandstones and siltstones of the Atane Formation (Turonian-Coniacian) from the Sarqaq area (Nûgssuaq peninsula, central West Greenland).In the unaltered rock sequence, the siltstones are dominated by kaolinite, quartz and feldspar. No cementation was observed. The sandstones which are prevalent in this formation are arkoses and lithic arkoses with quartz/feldspar ratios of about 1, with variable contents of rock fragments and with minor amounts of matrix. The matrix consists mainly of kaolinite, less frequently of illite-muscovite and smectite or interstratified illite-smectite. Cement minerals include calcite, Fe-calcite, both mainly in concretions, and subordinate Fe-oxide hydrates.The porosity of the sandstones and siltstones indicates a former maximum depth of burial of 1000 m in the Sarqaq region.Adjacent to thin dykes and sills (1–2 m) the above-described rocks are altered as follows. In sandstones albite (fibrous), quartzine, smectite, goethite were all formed at the expense of kaolinitic matrix, and aragonite cement. In siltstones, interstratified illite-smectite, illite, smectite and low-cristobalite replaced kaolinite. These minerals, especially smectite, exclude temperatures above 200°C; they were probably formed during a cooling period.Adjacent to thicker basalt intrusions—only sills, over 5 m thick, and no dykes are known from this area—the following alterations are observed. In sandstones two textural types of albite were formed in addition to: (1) fibrous albite mentioned above; (2) undulose lath-shaped albite; (3) coarse-twinned non-undulose replacement albite. Moreover, brownish luminescing undulose quartz, muscovite, chlorite, epidote, nontronite and anatase occur. In siltstones the mineral association muscovite-chlorite-pyrophyllite-albite occurs, suggesting temperatures in the range of 250–500°C. Additionally a 22–26 Å mixed-layer mineral (chlorite-muscovite?) formed. At the contacts of thick as well as thin basalt intrusions the detrital grains directly adjoining the basalt are partly fractured; potassium feldspar grains show also a chemical disintegration.The temperatures calculated by application of a cooling model are higher than those indicated by the mineral alterations observed. Convective heat transfer by pore water is suggested as an explanation.     

Leaching of quartz from precambrian hypabyssal rhyolite porphyry,Llano County,Texas

A Precambrian hypabyssal rhyolite porphyry in central Texas has retained its original texture, although alkali feldspar phenocrysts have inverted and unmixed from zoned, single-phase high-temperature feldspar to zoned microperthite with an intermediate microcline host.Blue quartz phenocrysts owe their color to dispersion by zircon inclusions. Neutron activation analysis reveals substitution of tetravalent cations for silicon in the quartz.In two outcrops, quartz and albite have been completely leached from the rock and K-feldspar added, leaving the texture intact. The leaching was most likely accomplished by residual brine from an overlying Lower Cretaceous evaporite deposit subsequently removed by erosion.

诸广山岩体黄峰岭地区产铀花岗岩的岩浆液态不混溶成因

对华南诸广山岩体黄峰岭地区花岗岩开展了锆石U-Pb年代学、矿物学及岩石地球化学研究,提出产铀岩的成因与富氟花岗岩浆液态不混溶作用有关。将黄峰岭地区花岗岩划分为5类, LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb定年结果表明,“红化”似伟晶花岗岩成岩年龄为225.4±1.7Ma,与之共生的“红化”细粒黑云母花岗岩成岩年龄为222.9±2.7Ma和226.9±2.7Ma,表明两者形成时代相近且晚于印支期花岗岩岩基成岩年龄（235.4±1.1Ma）。通过镜下鉴定、长石单矿物X射线粉晶衍射以及热力学计算, 认为黄峰岭地区钾、 钠长石主要形成于成岩期,隶属于最大微斜长石及低钠长石系列,与晚期钠交代形成的长石存在差异。元素地球化学分析表明,不同类型花岗岩呈现出Si-Al、K-Na分离,Nb-Ta、Zr-Hf等元素对分异现象,稀土元素配分模式表现出突变性、共轭性,ΣREE-（La/Yb）_N和La-La/Sm演化方向呈分离特征。区内晚期Li-F花岗斑岩脉及多处萤石矿床（点）证实大量氟元素的存在。上述特征综合分析表明：黄峰岭地区产铀花岗岩成岩期存在富氟花岗岩浆液态不混溶作用,且处于其中的中—低阶段,形成的富硅酸盐和贫硅酸盐系统导致了产铀的“红化”似伟晶花岗岩与细粒黑云母花岗岩的空间共生、地球化学共轭等特征,且铀主要富集于岩浆液态不混溶体系形成的花岗岩中。     

钠长石花岗岩中雪球结构形成机理的研究

在某些富锂、氟含稀有金属花岗岩的石英和钾长石斑晶中常见 (半 )雪球结构。雪球结构的产出特征、雪球体中钠长石的电子探针分析结果以及其他间接证据都说明 ,雪球结构是在岩浆结晶分异过程中形成的。对矿物结晶顺序、石英和钠长石的生长速率以及固相线温度的研究表明 ,富锂、氟、钠的花岗质残余岩浆完全具备形成雪球结构的条件。岩浆熔体中较高的Na2 O/K2 O比值和F、H2 O含量在雪球结构的形成过程中起着重要的作用 :F的高含量使岩浆固相线温度降低 ,岩浆得以充分分异演化 ,形成接近端员组分的钾长石和钠长石 ;Na2 O/K2 O比值较大使钠长石首先结晶 ;较高的F和H2 O含量使岩浆粘度降低 ,石英的生长速率相对加快并逐渐包裹钠长石形成雪球结构。
