中国大陆科学钻探主孔超高压榴辉岩中绿辉石结构水研究

本文利用傅立叶（Fourier）变换红外光谱技术对CCSD主孔100～3100米深度范围榴辉岩中的绿辉石结构水含量进行了原位分析。结果表明，所有绿辉石都舍有一定的以OH形式存在的结构水，其含量范围为45～784ppm，平均为235ppm。不同榴辉岩绿辉石之间的结构水含量差别较大，而且呈现出明显的空间分布不均一性。相关性分析显示，绿辉石的结构水含量与全岩的Mgo、TFeO、Al2O3，含量成正相关，与NaO成反相关，与绿辉石的NaO、TFeO含量成负相关，与榴辉岩的峰期变质条件无关；与其它类型榴辉岩相比，多硅白云母榴辉岩中绿辉石的结构水含量较高，平均为339ppm。由此推测，超高压榴辉岩绿辉石中所残留的结构水含量很可能与其峰期结构水含量、矿物化学成分和岩石矿物组成有关。     

柴达木盆地北缘鱼卡河含柯石英榴辉岩的确定及其意义

在柴达木盆地北缘鱼卡河边达肯大坂杂岩之花岗质片麻岩中发现典型的含柯石英榴辉岩。榴辉岩主要由石榴石、绿辉石和少量（多硅）白云母、柯石英和石英、角闪石、金红石等矿物组成。石榴石中铁铝、镁铝和钙铝榴石分子含量分别为５１％～５９％、２６％～３１％和１３％～１９％;绿辉石中硬玉分子含量为４５％～４８％;岩石中残留有ｂ０值极大的高压矿物多硅白云母（ｂ０＝９０７５×１０－１ｎｍ）;角闪石亦为高压类型的冻蓝闪石;最为重要的是确定了柯石英的存在。榴辉岩原始特征保存完好,仅遭受轻微的退变质作用和叠加变质作用。组成矿物可分为３个世代：（１）峰期矿物组合：石榴石＋绿辉石＋（多硅）白云母＋（柯）石英＋金红石;（２）退变交生组合：冻蓝闪石＋蠕虫状石英;（３）后期叠加变质矿物白云母。榴辉岩相变质作用发生在压力大于２８ＧＰａ的超高压至大约７３０℃、１７０ＧＰａ的高压环境,表明柴达木盆地北缘是一条重要的古板块汇聚边界。     

榴辉岩中传统地质温压计新解：来自PT视剖面图的证据

石榴石-单斜辉石(GC)温度计和石榴石-单斜辉石-多硅白云母(GCP)压力计是确定榴辉岩形成温压条件的最常用方法,二者主要依据石榴石、绿辉石和多硅白云母中相组分之间的交换和转换变质反应.依据MORB成分计算的PT视剖面图表明,在不同榴辉岩矿物组合中,控制3个矿物相成分变化的相组分之间的变质反应不同.在低温含绿泥石、滑石和蓝闪石榴辉岩组合中,石榴石和绿辉石的镁含量主要受到含水矿物脱水反应的控制,并都随温度升高而升高,二者之间的铁镁交换反应并不起主要作用.因此,在自然界含有蓝闪石等含水矿物的低温榴辉岩中,由于绿辉石相对富镁而常常导致GC温度计结果偏低.在含有硬柱石的高压-超高压榴辉岩中,石榴石中的钙含量受到硬柱石的控制,随着压力升高或温度降低,硬柱石含量增加,使石榴石中钙降低,此时石榴石-绿辉石-多硅白云母之间的转换反应对石榴石成分的影响会很微弱,由于石榴石相对贫钙而导致GCP压力计结果偏低.在含有蓝晶石的中温高压-超高压榴辉岩中,矿物成分的变化受到石榴石-绿辉石之间的铁镁交换反应和石榴石．绿辉石．多硅白云母-蓝晶石-石英/柯石英之间的一系列转换反应控制,因此,GC和GCP温压计都能给出相对合理的结果.在低压普通角闪石榴辉岩中,石榴石和绿辉石中的镁含量主要反应压力变化,有时并不指示变质作用温度.在含有蓝闪石等含水矿物的低温榴辉岩中,Thermocalc程序中的平均温压(avPT)方法可以给出比较合适的温度,但压力结果与GCP压力计一样也会偏低一些.在蓝闪石和绿帘石等含水矿物消失后的中温蓝晶石榴辉岩中,avPT方法难以给出合理的PT信息.相对来说,视剖面图方法能够给出最多的PT信息,是目前确定变质岩PT条件的最好方法.     

翡翠的矿物成分和辉玉的分类

翡翠主要由硬玉（ＮａＡｌＳｉ２Ｏ６）矿物集合体组成。除硬玉外,有时还含有一些其它的单斜辉石类矿物,现在已经确定的有：铬硬玉、透辉质硬玉、钠铬辉石质硬玉、绿辉石、钠铬辉石质绿辉石、透辉质钠铬辉石、硬玉质钠铬辉石、钠铬辉石、透辉石、硬玉质单斜顽火辉石、透辉质单斜顽火辉石、霓辉石和霓石等。只有主要由硬玉的摩尔百分数〉５０％的硬玉矿物组成的玉石才能叫翡翠。而主要由其它单斜辉石类矿物组成的玉石,应分别叫霓石     

CCSD主孔100-1100m榴辉岩中单矿物的原位微区微量元素地球化学研究

本文通过对CCSD主孔100～1100m范围内榴辉岩中单矿物的LA-ICP-MS分析，探讨了榴辉岩中单矿物之间的微量元素分配，发现超高压变质作用中石榴石和绿辉石之间Ti和C0的分配显著受Mg控制（如DCo^Grt/Omp=3．43DMg^Grt/Omp-0．34），而REE、Sr和Y的分配则受Ca分配所控制。绿辉石中REE、Pb和Th的含量则明显受超高压副矿物磷灰石的出现与否所控制。结合岩石学特征，对角闪石和绿辉石中微量元素的研究表明角闪石主要是绿辉石退变质的产物。但退变质矿物的微量元素组成不仅受原矿物控制，而且受退变质矿物组合类型影响。绿帘石的出现会显著降低共生角闪石中LREE和Sr的含量，而多硅白云母的分解则会增加角闪石中的Rb、Ba含量。另外，退变质过程中的流体活动也会影响退变质矿物中的LREE、Sr和Pb等。结合REE在榴辉岩各主要矿物间分配系数随温度、压力的变化，我们推测部分石榴石边部MREE的富集特征可能反映榴辉岩在折返过程中经历了短时增温作用，这可能是引起苏鲁地区榴辉岩相向麻粒岩相转变叠加现象以及超高压岩石经历部分熔融作用的重要原因。此外，榴辉岩中金红石Nb和Ta组成的高度不均一性为金红石形成于超高压变质阶段富Ti磁铁矿相变作用的成因机制提供了佐证。     

陆下和洋底脊橄榄岩单斜辉石中的Na.Al^IV和Al^VI：地幔中不同熔融…

中国大陆科学钻探主孔榴辉岩中石榴石和绿辉石原位激光探针分析及其成岩成矿指示意义

本文以中国大陆科学钻探主孔0～2000m岩芯中的榴辉岩为对象,运用EMPA和LA-ICP-MS技术,系统测定了榴辉岩中石榴石和绿辉石的主量与微量元素组成,并据此讨论了它们的成岩成矿意义.研究结果表明,CCSD主孔榴辉岩中石榴石富重稀土和Sc、Y、Co,而绿辉石则富中稀土和Pb、Sr、V,石榴石和绿辉石的高场强元素(特别是Nb、Ta)含量均很低.石榴石存在不同程度的Ce负异常,指示榴辉岩的形成过程中卷入有地表氧化条件下形成的风化沉积物.石榴石具有低的Zr/Y比值,绿辉石普遍具有高的Sr含量,这些特征说明榴辉岩(特别是高钛榴辉岩)的原岩可能为遭受过壳源物质混染与交代的富集地幔部分熔融的产物.高钛与低钛榴辉岩中石榴石和绿辉石在主量及微量元素组成上存在一定差别,总体而言,高钛榴辉岩中石榴石具高的MgO含量和较高的MgO/TFeO比值,以及较高的稀土和Sc含量,而绿辉石则相对富TFeO、MnO,并具有较高的Sr、Zr、Hf含量.高钛榴辉岩中石榴石和绿辉石常出现不同程度的Eu正异常,Cr含量均显著低于低钛榴辉岩.综合分析表明,高钛榴辉岩的原岩最可能为富斜长石的辉长质侵入岩,原岩组成的差异应是导致二类榴辉岩中石榴石和绿辉石矿物化学组成存在差异的主要原因.     

超高压榴辉岩中绿辉石组构测定及其流变学意义

北秦岭官坡地区高压—超高压榴辉岩岩相学及变质作用研究

北秦岭官坡地区的榴辉岩及含柯石英榴辉岩产在帮岭岩群的北侧，主要由绿辉石和石榴石组成，部分石榴石和绿辉石中含柯石英包体。此外还含有退变质的多硅白云母、角闪石、黝帘石和纳长石等矿物，根据变质矿物之间的替代关系及共生组合规律，榴辉岩退变质作用可划分为四个阶段，各阶段代表性矿物组合依次为：柯石英＋绿辉石＋石榴石；石英＋绿辉石＋石榴石；多硅白云母＋绿辉石＋石榴石＋石英；角闪石＋斜长石＋白云母＋黑云母。这四个     

大别造山带黄镇榴辉岩矿物不同类型地质温度计应用和对比

常用于测定榴辉岩形成温度的有石榴石-绿辉石Fe-Mg配分温度计和石英-矿物对氧同位素温度计。最近的自然观察和实验测定发现，金红石中的Zr含量与温度之间存在线性关系，因此能够用于变质岩测温。本文首次将这三种温度计用于同一产地榴辉岩及其中的石英脉。对大别造山带黄镇低温超高压榴辉岩中金红石Zr含量的温度计算得到，产于矿物内部金红石Zr含量温度明显地高于粒间金红石Zr含量温度，产于矿物石榴石、绿辉石和黝帘石内部金红石Zr含量温度主要集中在528～589℃之间，而产于粒间金红石的温度主要集中在465～528℃之间。榴辉岩中金红石Zr含量最高的产于石榴石中，但是所计算的温度503～589℃仍然不同程度地低于榴辉岩形成温度670℃。石英脉中金红石Zr含量温度主要集中在465～528℃之间。石英-耐熔矿物对氧同位素温度主要集中在650～695℃之间，表明耐熔矿物石榴石、锆石和蓝晶石在该区榴辉岩中相对其它矿物来说保存最好，退变质作用最弱，因此其氧同位素温度与峰期超高压榴辉岩相变质奈件基本一致。而石英．易熔矿物对温度主要集中在450～510℃之间，与易熔矿物绿辉石、钠云母、斜黝帘石／黝帘石在榴辉岩中蚀变强烈一致，反映了角闪岩相退变质阶段的流体活动。石榴石-单斜辉石Fe-Mg配分温度结果分为三组：795～863℃、629～679℃和468～572℃，其中后两组与金红石Zr含量和石英-矿物对氧同位素测温结果具有可比较性，指示了榴辉岩相变质和角闪岩相退变质过程中的Fe-Mg交换平衡，而第一组温度明显高于已知的榴辉岩相变质温度，表明绿辉石后成合晶导致了部分石榴石与单斜辉石之间的Fe-Mg不平衡。榴辉岩折返过程中的流体活动可能是导致矿物之间元素和同位素扩散交换再平衡或不平衡的基本原因。粒内金红石Zr含量温度仍然不同程度地低于榴辉岩形成温度，可能说明其在进变质过程中形成后相对“孤立”，即使在峰期榴辉岩相条件下也不能与锆石之间达到Zr配分再平衡。粒间金红石Zr含量降低可能与金红石重结晶有关，结果导致它们与锆石之间的Zr配分平衡遭到破坏。     

Transformation of garnet epidote amphibolite to eclogite, western Dabie Mountains, China

Omphacite and garnet coronas around amphibole occur in amphibolites in the Hong'an area, western Dabie Mountains, China. These amphibolites consist of an epidote–amphibolite facies assemblage of amphibole, garnet, albite, clinozoisite, paragonite, ilmenite and quartz, which is incompletely overprinted by an eclogite facies assemblage of garnet, omphacite and rutile. Coronas around amphibole can be divided into three types: an omphacite corona; a garnet–omphacite–rutile corona; and, a garnet–omphacite corona with less rutile. Chemographic analysis for local reaction domains in combination with petrographical observations show that reactions Amp + Ab + Pg = Omp +Czo + Qtz + H₂O, and Amp + Ab = Omp ± Czo + Qtz + H₂O may lead to the development of omphacite coronas. The garnet–omphacite–rutile corona was formed from the reaction Amp + Ab + Czo + Ilm ± Qtz = Omp + Grt + Rt + H₂O. In garnet–omphacite coronas, the garnet corona grew during an early stage of epidote amphibolite facies metamorphism, whereas omphacite probably formed by the reactions forming the omphacite corona during the eclogite facies stage. It is estimated that these reactions occurred at 0.8–1.4 GPa and 480–610 °C using the garnet–clinopyroxene thermometer and omphacite barometer in the presence of albite.     

Mineral oxygen isotope and hydroxyl content changes in ultrahigh-pressure eclogite–gneiss contacts from Chinese Continental Scientific Drilling Project cores

A combined study of mineral O isotopes and hydroxyl contents was carried out for the contacts between ultrahigh‐pressure eclogite and gneiss from main hole of the Chinese Continental Scientific Drilling Project in the Sulu orogen. While there is a large δ¹⁸O variation from ?8.3 to 7.3‰ for all minerals, different styles of mineral‐pair fractionation occur at the boundaries of different lithologies. Both equilibrium and disequilibrium O isotope fractionations are observed between quartz and the other minerals, with reversed fractionations between omphacite and garnet in some samples of eclogite. This suggests that both eclogite and gneiss acquired their negative δ¹⁸O values by meteoric‐hydrothermal alteration of their protoliths at high temperatures before subduction, and that fluid‐assisted O isotope exchange did take place across the boundary of different lithologies at local scales during amphibolite‐facies retrogression. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy analysis yielded H₂O concentrations of 50 to 1144 p.p.m. (by weight) for garnet and 139 to 751 p.p.m. for omphacite. The state of equilibrium or disequilibrium O isotope fractionations between omphacite and garnet are correlated with variations in their water content at local scales, indicating that the internally derived fluid plays a critical role in retrograde metamorphism during exhumation. The retrograde metamorphism results in mineral reactions and O isotope disequilibria between some of the minerals, but the fluid for retrogression was derived from the decompression exsolution of structural hydroxyl and thus internally buffered in the O isotope composition. A quantitative estimate suggests that a hand specimen (3 × 6 × 9 cm) of eclogite composed of 70% garnet and 30% omphacite can release 0.316 g water by the decompression exsolution of structural hydroxyl, which can form 14.4 g amphibole during exhumation. This provides sufficient amounts of water for the amphibolite‐facies retrogression.     

苏鲁造山带东部荣成榴辉岩中蓝晶石及绿辉石的分解——一种可能的新成因解释

在麻粒岩相条件下，荣成含蓝晶石榴辉岩发生退变质，其中的绿辉石退变质成透辉石＋中长石组成的后成合晶，蓝晶石大部分被冠状体取代，基于详细探针分析结果的成分迁移估算显示，冠状体的形成需要从绿辉石的分解中获取CaO,MgO,FeO，绿辉石的分解包含两个反应：一个为绿辉石中的硬玉分子与石英结合形成钠长石；另一个发生在绿辉石内部各端员组分之间，后者不但形成后成合晶，而且为蓝晶石周围冠状体的形成提供CaO,MgO,FeO，蓝晶石的分解未能给后成合晶的形成提供SiO2，绿辉石与蓝晶石在分解时并冰形成一个封闭体系，它们均从周围环境中获取SiO2。     

Petrogenesis and implications of jadeite‐bearing kyanite eclogite from the Sanbagawa belt (SW Japan)

Jadeite‐bearing kyanite eclogite has been discovered in the Iratsu body of the Sanbagawa belt, SW Japan. The jadeite + kyanite assemblage is stable at higher pressure–temperature (P–T) conditions or lower H₂O activity [a(H₂O)] than paragonite, although paragonite‐bearing eclogite is common in the Sanbagawa belt. The newly discovered eclogite is a massive metagabbro with the peak‐P assemblage garnet + omphacite + jadeite + kyanite + phengite + quartz + rutile. Impure jadeite is exclusively present as inclusions in garnet. The compositional gap between the coexisting omphacite (P2/n) and impure jadeite (C2/c) suggests relatively low metamorphic temperatures of 510–620 °C. Multi‐equilibrium thermobarometry for the assemblage garnet + omphacite + kyanite + phengite + quartz gives peak‐P conditions of ~2.5 GPa, 570 °C. Crystallization of jadeite in the metagabbro is attributed to Na‐ and Al‐rich effective bulk composition due to the persistence of relict Ca‐rich clinopyroxene at the peak‐P stage. By subtracting relict clinopyroxene from the whole‐rock composition, pseudosection modelling satisfactorily reproduces the observed jadeite‐bearing assemblage and mineral compositions at ~2.4–2.5 GPa, 570–610 °C and a(H₂O) >0.6. The relatively high pressure conditions derived from the jadeite‐bearing kyanite eclogite are further supported by high residual pressures of quartz inclusions in garnet. The maximum depth of exhumation in the Sanbagawa belt (~80 km) suggests decoupling of the slab–mantle wedge interface at this depth.     

Petrology and phase relations of the kyanite-eclogites from eastern Turkey

Eclogites are found as lenses or layers in the Precambrian gneiss terrain of the Bitlis Massif in eastern Turkey. Kyanite-eclogites from the region of Gablor Hill in the Bitlis Massif exhibit relatively minor alteration, and consist of garnet, omphacite, kyanite, zoisite, calcic amphibole, phengite, rutile and quartz. In terms of geological setting and mineral compositions, Gablor eclogites are very similar to eclogites from high-grade gneiss terrains. Metamorphic conditions during the eclogite crystallisation are determined as 625±35° C and 16±3 kbars. The coexistence of white mixa, omphacite and kyanite constrains between 0.4 and 1. Primary calcic amphiboles from the Gablor eclogites exhibit conflicting textures, indicating stable coexistence with, as well as growth from omphacite and garnet. This is explained by a buffering reaction between amphibole, garnet, omphacite, zoisite and kyanite during the eclogite crystallisation, whereby is controlled and buffered by the mineral assemblage.     

Eclogite xenoliths from Wajrakarur kimberlites, southern India

Summary Mineralogical characteristics of eclogite xenoliths from three kimberlite pipes (KL2, P2 and P10) of the Proterozoic Wajrakarur kimberlite field of southern India have been studied. In a rare sample of enstatite eclogite from the KL2 pipe garnet contains microscopic triangular arrays of needles or blebs of omphacite, enstatite and rutile consistent with an origin by exsolution parallel to the isometric form {111}. Discrete omphacite grains in the sample contain exsolved needles or blebs of enstatite and garnet. Kyanite eclogites are abundant in the KL2 pipe which occasionally show a secondary ring of pure celsian around kyanite grains. Omphacite Na₂O contents in the eclogites of the KL2 and P2 pipes are typically between 3 and 6 wt%, and garnet has widely variable composition with end member ranges of Prp22-81Grs0-47Alm10-30Sps0-1Adr0-5Uv0-3. Eclogites of the P10 pipe comprise chromian omphacite and garnet. Phase relations in the ACF projection exhibit systematic increase of the Ca-Tschermak’s component in omphacite from enstatite eclogite through biminerallic eclogite to kyanite eclogite. Garnet-clinopyroxene Fe–Mg geothermometry yields temperatures mostly in the range of 900–1100 °C. A formerly supersilicic nature of garnet in enstatite eclogite as inferred from exsolution mineralogy indicates minimum peak pressure of 5 GPa.     

Calculated phase equilibria for MORB compositions: a reappraisal of the metamorphic evolution of lawsonite eclogite

Pseudosections calculated with thermocalc predict that lawsonite‐bearing assemblages, including lawsonite eclogite, will be common for subducted oceanic crust that experiences cool, fluid‐saturated conditions. For glaucophane–lawsonite eclogite facies conditions (500–600 °C and 18–28 kbar), MORB compositions are predicted in the NCKMnFMASHO system to contain glaucophane, garnet, omphacite, lawsonite, phengite and quartz, with chlorite at lower temperature and talc at higher temperature. In these assemblages, the pyrope content in garnet is mostly controlled by variations in temperature, and grossular content is strongly controlled by pressure. The silica content in phengite increases linearly with pressure. As the P–T conditions for these given isopleths are only subtly affected by common variations in bulk‐rock compositions, the P–T pseudosections potentially present a robust geothermobarometric method for natural glaucophane‐bearing eclogites. Thermobarometric results recovered both by isopleth and conventional approaches indicate that most natural glaucophane–lawsonite eclogites (Type‐L) and glaucophane–epidote eclogites (Type‐E) record similar peak P–T conditions within the lawsonite stability field. Decompression from conditions appropriate for lawsonite stability should result in epidote‐bearing assemblages through dehydration reactions controlled by lawsonite + omphacite = glaucophane + epidote + H₂O. Lawsonite and omphacite breakdown will be accompanied by the release of a large amount of bound fluid, such that eclogite assemblages are variably recrystallized to glaucophane‐rich blueschist. Calculated pseudosections indicate that eclogite assemblages form most readily in Ca‐rich rocks and blueschist assemblages most readily in Ca‐poor rocks. This distinction in bulk‐rock composition can account for the co‐existence of low‐T eclogite and blueschist in high‐pressure terranes.     

Fabric and Deformation of Omphacite in Dabie Ultra-high-pressure Ecologites

The rheological characters of omphacites in Dabie ultra-high-pressure eclogite have been studied interms of fabric, dislocation and micro-structures. 1. The eclogite has undergone high-temperature deformation, thus forming omphacite lattice preferred orientation. In addition to creep dislocation, the omphacite ductile deformation may have other mechanisms, such as diffusion creep and grain boundary migration. 2. The main-phase deformation of eclogite is coaxial, but asymmetry strain also exists due to strain partitioning in the Dabie erogenic belt. 3.The twin measured by the universal stage is (100), indicating that omphacite high-T deformation was superimposed by low-T deformation. 4. Subgrain structure is common in omphacite, but the deformation features of the omphacites in the Shuanghe area and Bixiling area are different, the latter being dominated by dynamic recrystallization. 5. The Flinn plots show that the strain of omphacite belongs to the constriction ellipsoid and stretching strain, which is     

Retrogressive development of glaucophane in some eclogites from “Massif Armoricain” (East of Nantes,France)

A petrological and mineralogical study, using an electron microprobe, of a blue-amphibole eclogite occurring near Nantes (Massif Armoricain, France) has enabled us to characterize this amphibole as glaucophane resulting from a secondary reaction in the rock. This sodic amphibole was formed at the expense of primary eclogite paragenesis including omphacite, garnet and quartz, according to a sliding reaction which it was possible to study quantitatively: 3.24 omphacite+0.90 SiO₂+0.76 garnet+1.08 H₂O =1 glaucophane+0.55 grossular (S.S. in the garnet) +0.04 paragonite.This reaction is accompanied by a variation in the distribution of iron and magnesium between the amphibole, the garnet and the omphacite.The appearance of the glaucophane can be explained as the beginning of a retromorphic evolution from the stable physical conditions of the primary eclogite paragenesis (650±100° C; minimum pressure 15 Kb).
