河北中山沟金矿含金石英脉中锆石U-Pb年代学及Hf同位素研究

热液石英脉型金矿石中锆石可以来自围岩,也可以由热液活动形成。因此,对其研究有助于揭示成岩成矿信息。中山沟金矿位于河北省张家口—宣化(张宣)地区,主要呈石英脉型产于水泉沟岩体西段,是张宣幔枝构造核部的典型金矿床之一。本文在矿区地质特征基础上,主要开展含金石英脉内锆石形态学特征、LA-ICP-MS U-Pb同位素测年以及Hf同位素研究。研究表明:石英脉内的锆石形态为自形—半自形,环带特征明显,Th/U值较高,平均0.97,具有岩浆锆石特征。锆石稀土元素含量(∑REE)为351×10^-6~976×10^-6,平均值为690×10^-6,呈现出轻稀土(LREE)亏损、重稀土(HREE)富集特征,在稀土元素球粒陨石标准化曲线总体呈现出斜率基本一致的左倾型;17个锆石U-Pb年龄数据获得391±1 Ma的谐和年龄和391±3 Ma的加权平均年龄,两组年龄在误差范围内基本一致,代表了含金石英脉中岩浆锆石的结晶年龄。11个Hf同位素测试数据获得的εHf(t)值位于-21.4~-16.6,T_DM1介于1.7~1.9 Ga,平均1.7 Ga,T_DM2主要集中于2.4~2.6 Ga,平均2.5 Ga,在Hf图解中投影点均位于亏损地幔和球粒陨石演化线之下,基本靠近2.5 Ga古老地壳的Hf同位素演化线,反应了其源区物质在地壳中平均存留的年龄。结合区域、矿区地质和实验锆石特征,本文认为中山沟金矿成矿时代不早于391±1 Ma,推测可能形成于海西早期,存在燕山期热液叠加成矿。水泉沟岩体的主成岩时代为加里东末期—海西早期。     

Age and tectonic setting of the first orogenic gold deposit discovered in the Yanbian Region,NE China

The Yangjingou gold deposit in Jilin Province lies 11 km south of the large-scale Xiaoxinancha gold–copper deposit. Yangjingou orebodies are structurally controlled fault- or fracture-related auriferous quartz veins. This type of mineralization is significantly different from that of the Xiaoxinancha porphyry gold–copper deposit, and has mineral assemblages and fluid inclusion compositions typical of orogenic gold deposits. We suggest that the Yangjingou deposit is the first orogenic gold deposit discovered in the Yanbian area, even in all of NE China. Here, we present new isotopic dating and trace element analysis of the ore-hosting monzogranite and auriferous quartz veins within the deposit, in order to determine the age and tectonic setting of metallogenesis, and the geological conditions controlling gold mineralization. LA-ICP-MS U–Pb dating of zircons separated from the monzogranite yielded an age of 262.3 ± 1.3 Ma, indicating intrusion during the late Permian. Hydrothermal muscovite from auriferous quartz veins yielded a ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar plateau age of 241.57 ± 1.2 Ma, indicating that gold mineralization occurred at 241 Ma. Trace element and REE compositions of the monzogranite and auriferous quartz veins are both indicative of the formation from a region of the upper mantle that previously underwent crustal contamination. Geochronological analysis indicates that the diagenesis and mineralization resulting in the Yangjingou gold deposit occurred during the late Permian–Early Triassic. The tectonic evolution of the region and comparison of this deposit with other mineralizing events indicate that the orebody formed during orogenesis associated with collision between the North China and Siberian cratons.     

Origin of the Yinshan epithermal-porphyry Cu–Au–Pb–Zn–Ag deposit,southeastern China: insights from geochemistry,Sr–Nd and zircon U–Pb–Hf–O isotopes

The Yinshan deposit is a large epithermal-porphyry polymetallic deposit, and the timing and petrogenesis of ore-hosting porphyries have been hotly debated. We present new results from geochemical, whole-rock Sr–Nd and zircon U–Pb–Hf–O isotopic investigations. Zircon U–Pb data demonstrate that the quartz porphyry, dacitic porphyry, and quartz dioritic porphyry formed at ?172.2 ± 0.4 Ma, ?171.7 ± 0.5 Ma, and ?170.9 ± 0.3 Ma, respectively. Inherited zircon cores show significant age spreads from ?730 to ?1390 Ma. Geochemically, they are high-K calc-alkaline or shoshonitic rocks with arc-like trace element patterns. They have similar whole-rock Nd and zircon Hf isotopic compositions, yet an increasing trend in ?_Nd(t) and ?_Hf(t) values typifies the suite. Older (inherited) zircons of the three porphyries display Hf compositions comparable to those of the Jiangnan Orogen basement rocks. In situ zircon oxygen isotopic analyses reveal that they have similar oxygen isotopic compositions, which are close to those of mantle zircons. Moreover, a decreasing trend of δ¹⁸O values is present. We propose that the ore-related porphyries of the Yinshan deposit were emplaced contemporaneously and derived from partial melting of Neoproterozoic arc-derived mafic (or ultra-mafic) rocks. Modelling suggests that the quartz porphyries, dacitic porphyries, and quartz dioritic porphyries experienced ?25%, ?10%, and ?10% crustal contaminations by Shuangqiaoshan rocks. Our study provides important constraints on mantle–crust interaction in the genesis of polymetallic mineralization associated with Mesozoic magmatism in southeastern China.     

吉林夹皮沟金矿带岩脉和蚀变绢云母定年及金矿成矿时代

吉林夹皮沟金矿床的矿化年龄一直存在争议。采用先进的SHRIMP测年方法测得夹皮沟二道沟金矿床的花岗闪长岩脉锆石的2 0 6Pb/ 2 3 8U年龄为 (2 2 3± 2 )Ma ;八家子金矿床的石英正长斑岩锆石的2 0 6Pb/ 2 3 8U年龄为 (2 41± 6 )～ (2 18± 6 )Ma。这一结果与前人测得的K Ar年龄基本相符。这两条岩脉与含金石英脉同构造空间 ,形成时代相近 ,因此上述岩脉年龄大体反映了金矿化年龄。同时还测得八家子金矿床蚀变绢云母的 4 0 Ar 3 9Ar等时线年龄为(2 0 3 975± 0 5 2 7)Ma ,进一步证明金矿化发生在中生代印支期。矿石中含有大量的方铅矿 ,还存在矿物及元素的分带 ,这些特征表明夹皮沟金矿床不太可能是新太古代或元古代形成的变质热液矿床 ,更大可能是中生代与岩浆活动有关的岩浆热液矿床     

New Data on the Age of Gold Mineralization in the Southeastern Part of Eastern Sayan

This article presents new data on the age of the largest gold deposits in the southeastern part of Eastern Sayan. The dates have been obtained by Ar–Ar analysis of micas occurring in gold-bearing quartz veins and mineralized zones. The obtained Ar–Ar ages of fuchsite and sericite from the tectonized and mineralized zones of the Zun–Holba deposit (ore body Severnoye-3), range within 353.9–386.4 Ma; a similar result of 352.9 Ma was yielded by Ar–Ar dating of Cr–muscovite from mylonitized listvenite in the veins of the periphery of the Zun–Ospa gold deposit. However, muscovite from the ore-bearing quartz vein of the Pioneer gold–quartz deposit, located near Zun–Holba, has been dated to 421.9 Ma. The obtained new data on isotopic age of the gold–quartz ores and gold–sulphide–quartz deposits allow recognition of the Early Palaeozoic accretion–collision and the Late Palaeozoic shearing stages of formation of gold mineralization in the SE Eastern Sayan.     

云南大坪金矿新元古代成矿事件——来自热液锆石和闪长岩U-Pb年代学及Hf同位素的约束

大坪金矿是哀牢山-红河韧性剪切带南段最重要的大型金矿床之一,由于其成矿时代和构造背景一直存在争议,不利于带内金矿床成矿模型的建立和进一步找矿勘探。本文利用LA-ICP-MS对矿区内含金石英脉中热液锆石、闪长岩和花岗闪长岩脉中岩浆锆石开展了U-Pb年代学研究,获得热液锆石U-Pb年龄为760±10 Ma,表明大坪金矿区可能存在新元古代金矿化事件;获得闪长岩和花岗闪长岩脉的锆石U-Pb年龄分别为773±9 Ma和766±9 Ma,与区域上Rodinia超大陆裂解和哀牢山地区的晋宁-澄江期大规模火山-岩浆活动事件时代一致。热液锆石与闪长岩、花岗闪长岩脉具有相似的Hf同位素组成特征和在误差范围内一致的年龄,表明新元古代金矿化事件可能与闪长岩和花岗闪长岩脉的侵入有密切的成因联系。本文新元古代成矿事件的厘定,结合前人的新生代始新世—渐新世为大坪金矿主要成矿时期的研究结果,表明大坪金矿可能是新元古代和新生代不同岩浆-构造-热液事件叠加成矿作用的产物。     

Laser probe <Superscript>40</Superscript>Ar/<Superscript>39</Superscript>Ar dating for quartz from auriferous quartz veins in the Shihu gold deposit,western Hebei Province,North China

The Shihu gold deposit is situated in the central shear zone of the Meso-Cenozoic Fuping metamorphic core complex in the middle-northern part of the Taihang Mountains. This kind of gold deposits named after ‘Shihu type’ widely occurs in this region. Gold-bearing quartz veins are their most important industrial orebodies. Detailed laser ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar geochronology of the mineralized quartz veins in the study area reveals details of its tectono-magmatic history. The ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar ages for the quartz are between 134.4 Ma and 155.9 Ma with a mean age of 141±4 Ma on the isochron line and 139±7 Ma on the inverse isochron line, respectively, which is interpreted to be the best estimate of the crystalline age of the quartz veins. The gold mineralization was most likely related to an underplating event that took place in the northern part of the Taihang Mountain at ca. 140 Ma. The timing of gold mineralization in the area is similar to those observed in other major gold-producing provinces in the NCC. This episode is simultaneous with those in the eastern NCC, indicative of a widespread late Yanshanian metallogenic event that was a response either to the subduction of the Izanagi-Pacific plate beneath eastern China or to the removal of the Early Cretaceous lithosphere in the eastern NCC. The ore-forming material sources may be the Early Precambrian metamorphic basement, instead of intermediate-acid rock bodies and dykes.     

Laser Ablation ICP‐MS U‐Pb Zircon Geochronology of Granitoids and Quartz Veins in the Shihu Gold Mine,Taihang Orogen,North China: Timing of Gold‐mineralization and Tectonic Implications

The Shihu gold deposit, situated in the Taihang Mesozoic orogen of the North China Craton (NCC), is hosted by ductile-brittle faults within Archean metamorphic core complex. The deposit is characterized by gold-bearing quartz-polymetallic sulfides veins. The Mapeng granitoids stock and intermediate-basic dikes intruded the metamorphic basement rocks, and are spatially related to gold mineralization. Detailed laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA ICP-MS) U-Pb zircon ages of the granitic rocks, dykes and mineralized quartz veins in the studied area reveal its magmatic and mineralized history. The mineralized quartz veins contain inherited zircons with ages of about 2.55 Ga and 1.84 Ga, probably coming from the basement. These two Precambrian events are coeval with those in other parts of the NCC. The Mapeng granitoid stock, the largest intrusion in the area, was emplaced at ca. 130 Ma, and is coeval with magmatic zircon populations from diorites and quartz diorite pophyrites in the same region. The ca. 130 Ma magmatism and gold mineralization were most likely related to an underplating event that took place in the Taihang orogen at Late Mesozoic. The timing of gold mineralization with respect to felsic magmatism in the area is similar to those observed in other major gold-producing provinces in the NCC. This episode is simultaneous with those in the eastern margin of NCC, indicative of a widespread late Yanshanian metallogenic event that was a response to the Early Cretaceous lithosphere in the eastern NCC, in which the mesothermal gold deposits were formed from similar tectono-magmatic environments.     

Geochemistry and geochronology of the ~620 Ma gold-associated Batouri granitoids,Cameroon

The Batouri gold mining area in southeastern Cameroon is part of the Adamawa–Yadé Domain of the Central African Fold Belt (Pan-African). It is underlain by a variety of granitic rocks, including alkali-feldspar granite, syeno-monzogranite, granodiorite, and tonalite. Geochemical data suggest that these rocks formed by differentiation of I-type tonalitic magma under oxidizing conditions in a continental volcanic arc setting. U–Pb dating of zircons from gold-associated monzogranite-granodiorite at Kambélé gave concordant ages of 619 ± 2 and 624 ± 2 Ma, while Ar–Ar dating of alkali-feldspar granite yielded a non-plateau maximum age of 640–620 Ma. These ages imply that the Batouri granitoids were emplaced during the collision of the West African Craton and the Congo Craton.

The geochemical characteristics of the Batouri granitoids as well as their oxidized state (magnetite series) are typical of gold-associated felsic rocks in subduction settings elsewhere. The similarities in age, composition, and geochemical affinities of these granitoids with those reported from other localities in the Adamawa–Yadé Domain reinforce the earlier assumption that the granitic rocks of this domain represent parts of a regional-scale batholith, with commonly small-scale, high-grade auriferous quartz veins in structurally favourable sites. The spatial and temporal association of gold mineralization and the Batouri granitoids may suggest potential for regional-scale, high-tonnage, granite-related gold ore.     

Age constraints on Tarkwaian palaeoplacer and lode-gold formation in the Tarkwa-Damang district, SW Ghana

Two major epigenetic gold-forming events are recorded in the world-class gold province of southwest Ghana. A pre-Tarkwaian event was the source of the world-class Tarkwa palaeoplacers whereas post-Birimian and Tarkwaian deformation, which was related to the Eburnean orogeny, gave rise to the world-class (e.g. Prestea) to giant (e.g. Obuasi) orogenic gold deposits which have made the region famous for more than 2,500 years. A maximum age of 2133±4 Ma for Tarkwaian sedimentation is provided by 71 of 111 concordant SHRIMP II U–Pb dates from detrital zircons in Tarkwaian clastic rocks from Damang and Bippo Bin, northeast of Tarkwa. The overall data distribution broadly overlaps the relatively poorly constrained ages of Birimian volcanism and associated Dixcove-type granitoid emplacement, indicating syntectonic development of the Tarkwaian sedimentary basin. These zircon ages argue against derivation of the palaeoplacer gold from an orogenic gold source related to the compressional phase of an orogeny significantly older than the Eburnean orogeny. Instead, they suggest that the gold source was either orogenic gold lodes related to an earlier compressional phase of a diachronous Eburnean orogeny or ca. 2200–2100 Ma intrusion-related gold lode. The CO₂-rich fluid inclusions in associated vein-quartz pebbles are permissive of either source. At the Damang deposit, an epigenetic, orogenic lode-gold system clearly overprinted, and sulphidised low-grade palaeoplacer hematite–magnetite gold occurrences in the Banket Series conglomerate within the Tarkwaian sedimentary sequence. Gold mineralisation is demonstrably post-peak metamorphism, as gold-related alteration assemblages overprint metamorphic assemblages in host rocks. In alteration zones surrounding the dominant, subhorizontal auriferous quartz veins, there are rare occurrences of hydrothermal xenotime which give a SHRIMP U–Pb age of 2063±9 Ma for gold mineralisation. The similar structural timing of epigenetic gold mineralisation in Tarkwaian host rocks at Damang to that in mainly Birimian host rocks elsewhere in southwest Ghana, particularly at Obuasi, suggests that 2063±9 Ma is the best available age estimate for widespread orogenic gold mineralisation in the region. Argon–argon ages of 2029±4 and 2034±4 Ma for hydrothermal biotite from auriferous quartz veins appear to represent uplift and cooling of the region below about 300 °C, as estimates of the temperature of gold mineralisation are higher, at around 400 °C. If peak metamorphism, with temperatures of about 550 °C, is assumed to have occurred at about 2100 Ma, the biotite ages, in combination with the xenotime age, suggest a broadly constant uplift rate for the region of about 1 km per 10 million years from about 2100 to 2025 Ma.     

云南大坪金矿床赋矿闪长岩锆石SHRIMP U-Pb定年及其地质意义

云南大坪金矿床是哀牢山金矿带中最重要的金矿之一,主要赋存在受到强烈剪切和水-岩反应的闪长岩中,是典型的喜马拉雅期造山型金矿。本文对大坪金矿床赋矿闪长岩中锆石进行了SHRIMP U-Pb定年,得出闪长岩围岩的年龄为773±12Ma,为晚元古代,显示该岩体为华南地区晋宁-澄江期大规模基性到酸性岩浆活动的产物,是Rodinia 超大陆形成、裂解后冈瓦纳大陆形成过程的响应,而不是前人普遍认为的加里东期岩体。该岩体侵入年龄与大坪金矿脉石英流体包裹体⁴⁰Ar-³⁹Ar 年龄测定给出的高温坪年龄(765.5±7.0Ma)基本一致,显示大坪金矿床具有多期成矿的特征,其主体形成于喜马拉雅期碰撞造山运动,但早在晋宁造山运动中就有金的初步富集。在闪长岩中还发现了年龄为33.7±1.1Ma的锆石,其时代与大坪金矿床含金石英脉中热液绢云母的⁴⁰Ar-³⁹Ar定年结果(33.76Ma)基本一致,显示它们很可能为该区强烈的韧性剪切和局部岩浆部分熔融作用的产物。

粤西大金山钨锡多金属矿床地质特征及成岩成矿年代学研究

粤西大金山钨锡多金属矿是一个近年新发现的与花岗岩有关的石英脉型钨锡多金属矿,目前估算的资源量已达中型,并具有大型矿床的找矿潜力。矿体形态简单,主要以石英脉的形式产出,由石英脉、云英岩脉和多金属硫化物石英脉等组成。钨锡多金属矿化的主要类型为细脉状和网脉状,围岩蚀变主要有硅化、云英岩化和绿泥石化等。本文在详细介绍矿床地质特征的基础上,对矿床进行了成岩成矿年代学研究。采用LA-MC-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb测年技术,得到了花岗岩的成岩年龄:中细粒黑云母花岗岩形成于82.89±0.35Ma~85.6±0.52Ma,似斑状黑云母花岗岩形成于75.01±0.16Ma~84.17±0.34Ma。通过对与中细粒黑云母花岗岩有关的5件石英脉型辉钼矿进行Re-Os同位素分析,获得其模式年龄为80.07±1.19Ma~84.93±1.42Ma。以上年代学测试结果说明大金山钨锡多金属矿成岩成矿时代为晚白垩世,成岩成矿作用基本同时。本文认为大金山钨锡多金属矿成岩成矿作用发生在华南晚中生代岩石圈拉张-伸展的构造背景下,是华南晚中生代大规模成岩成矿作用的产物。     

Ar-Ar Dating on the Metallogenesis of the Dongchuang Gold Deposit in the Xiaoqinling Area

The Dongchuang gold deposit in the Xiaoqinling area is an orogenic-type lode gold deposit. It is one of the few superlarge (>100 t Au) deposits in China. Although it has been argued that it was formed in the Mesozoic, related isotopic age data have not been reported in previous studies. Based on detailed geological study, the authors have carried out isotopic dating on various metallogenic generations. The ore-forming process of the Dongchuang gold deposit consists of four stages: coarse-grained pyrite-bearing quartz veins (stage Ⅰ), fine-grained pyrite-quartz veinlets (stage Ⅱ), multi-sulfides (stage Ⅲ) and carbonate-quartz veinlets (stage IV). Ar-Ar dating on mineral separates of stages Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ yields plateau ages of 142.9±2.9 Ma, 132.2±2.6 Ma and 128.3±6.2 Ma, respectively. Sericite separates from stage Ⅱ assemblage also yield an Ar-Ar isochron age of 132.6±2.7 Ma, similar to the Ar-Ar plateau age. These results suggest that the Dongchuang gold deposit was mainly formed during 143-128 M     

Duration of the formation and sources of the granitoids of the Litsk-Araguba Complex, Kola Peninsula

Postorogenic granitoids of the Litsk-Araguba Complex compose a chain of intrusive bodies around 850 km² in area, which are confined to the NE-trending deep-seated fault zone. Results of U-Pb zircon dating indicate that the formation of granitoids of the Litsk-Araguba Complex lasted 28 ± 9 Ma. Note that the rocks of the first-fourth phases have similar age within (1774–1762 Ma), while quartz syenites of the fifth phase were formed much later (1746 ± 8 Ma). The study of Sm-Nd isotopic system revealed that the quartz syenites plot in the field of the Nd isotopic evolution of the lower crust represented mainly by the Paleoproterozoic garnet granulites with model ages T_Nd(DM) = 2.4–2.7 Ga and ?_Nd(T) from ?5.6 to ?6.3. It was found that the near-contact syenites of the Litsk Massif contain composite zircons with an age of 1758 ± 9Ma. They differ from zircons in coeval porphyraceous granites in lowered U and Th concentrations, which are close to those in zircons from the lower crustal garnet granulites of this region. These data in combination with internal structure of the crystals determine xenogenic lower-crustal origin of zircons from syenites and confirm geochemical data on the lower crustal input in the formation of granitoid melts.     

Ages and Sources of Ore‐Related Porphyries at Yongping Cu–Mo Deposit in Jiangxi Province,Southeast China

Whole‐rock geochemistry, zircon U–Pb and molybdenite Re–Os geochronology, and Sr–Nd–Hf isotopes analyses were performed on ore‐related dacite porphyry and quartz porphyry at the Yongping Cu–Mo deposit in Southeast China. The geochemical results show that these porphyry stocks have similar REE patterns, and primitive mantle‐normalized spectra show LILE‐enrichment (Ba, Rb, K) and HFSE (Th, Nb, Ta, Ti) depletion. The zircon SHRIMP U–Pb geochronologic results show that the ore‐related porphyries were emplaced at 162–156 Ma. Hydrothermal muscovite of the quartz porphyry yields a plateau age of 162.1 ± 1.4 Ma (2σ). Two hydrothermal biotite samples of the dacite porphyry show plateau ages of 164 ± 1.3 and 163.8 ± 1.3 Ma. Two molybdenite samples from quartz+molybdenite veins contained in the quartz porphyry yield Re–Os ages of 156.7 ± 2.8 Ma and 155.7 ± 3.6 Ma. The ages of molybdenite coeval to zircon and biotite and muscovite ages of the porphyries within the errors suggest that the Mo mineralization was genetically related to the magmatic emplacement. The whole rocks Nd–Sr isotopic data obtained from both the dacite and quartz porphyries suggest partial melting of the Meso‐Proterozoic crust in contribution to the magma process. The zircon Hf isotopic data also indicate the crustal component is the dominated during the magma generation.     

新疆东准噶尔金水泉金矿床地质特征、成矿时代及其地质意义

Geochronology of igneous rocks at and near to the Nezhdaninka gold deposit, Yakutia, Russia: U-Pb, Rb-Sr, and Sm-Nd isotopic data

The intrusive rocks associated with the large Nezhdaninka gold deposit (Au > 470 t) hosted in the Permian carbonaceous terrigenous sequence have been dated on zircon and rock-forming minerals with precision U-Pb (ID-TIMS) and Rb-Sr methods. The lamprophyre of the dike complex that occurs in the ore field and spatially is related to gold mineralization has concordant U-Pb zircon age (121 ± 1 Ma) and the same isochron Rb-Sr age (121.0 ± 2.8 Ma). The concordant U-Pb zircon age of granodiorite that dominates in the Kurum pluton is 94 ± 1 Ma, whereas the Rb-Sr isochron age of various intrusive rocks from this pluton is 1–4 Ma younger. This difference is caused by long-term cooling of the Kurum pluton and later closure of Rb-Sr isotopic system of biotite (300–350°C) and other rock-forming minerals as compared with U-Pb isotopic system of zircon (～ 900°C). The Rb-Sr age of quartz diorite from the Gel’dy group of stocks (92.6 ± 0.8 Ma) coincides within uncertainty limits with the age of the Kurum pluton. Thus, the rocks pertaining to two epochs of magmatic activity, which developed in the South Verkhoyansk Foldbelt and divided by a time span of 25–28 Ma, are documented in the Nezhdaninka ore field. Taking into account that the age of gold mineralization is no less than 120 Ma, the data obtained allow us to specify the previously proposed formation model of the Nezhdaninka deposit. These data give grounds to rule out the Late Cretaceous Kurum pluton and the Gel’dy group of stocks from constituents of the ore-magmatic system, and to suggest that an Early Cretaceous deep-seated magma source existed beneath the deposit. Along with host terrigenous rocks, this magma source participated in the supply of matter to the hydrothermal system. The Nd, Sr, and Pb isotopic systematics of igneous rocks and ore mineralization in the Nezhdaninka ore field show that the Early and Late Cretaceous magma sources were formed in the Precambrian crust dated at ～1.8 Ga.     

Petrogenesis of Late Jurassic granitoids and relationship to polymetallic deposits in southern China: The Huangshaping example

ABSTRACT

Southern Hunan Province, located in the Cathaysia Block where the Shi–Hang zone and Nanling belt meet, is characterized by extensive Mesozoic magmatism and coeval polymetallic mineralization. The Huangshaping W–Mo–Pb–Zn–(Cu) deposit is representative in this area. However, the petrogenesis of the granitoids associated with the Huangshaping deposit, and their relationships with mineralization, remain undetermined. In this paper we focus on zircon U–Pb dating, whole-rock geochemistry, and Sr–Nd–Pb–Hf isotopic compositions in order to further our understanding of these issues, as well as their regional implications. The Huangshaping granitoids are characterized by two pulses of intrusive activity: a first-stage quartz porphyry and a second-stage felsite and granite porphyry, our new data show that the quartz porphyry and felsite formed at 160.5 ± 1.3 and 156.6 ± 1.4 Ma, respectively, representing a period of Late Jurassic magmatism. Granitic enclaves within the quartz porphyry crystallized at 160.2 ± 1.6 Ma, and zircons and apatites from the enclaves exhibit Hf isotopic and geochemical compositions that suggest a Palaeoproterozoic lower crustal melt as one end-member of the magma that formed the quartz porphyry, whereas another likely end-member was coeval mantle-derived magma, as indicated by the geochemistry and Sr–Nd–Pb–Hf isotopes. However, both the felsite and granite porphyry were probably derived from the melting of metamorphic basement rocks in the upper crust. The felsite clearly formed as a result of the rapid ascent and cooling of magma, whereas the granite porphyry underwent fractional crystallization. The magma sources and evolution of the granitoids, as well as their association with the Huangshaping mineralization, suggest that melting of upper crustal components controlled the W–Mo and Pb–Zn mineralization, whereas dehydration of a subducted slab provided the Cu mineralization in southern Hunan Province.     

西准噶尔宝贝金矿地质与容矿火山岩的锆石SHRIMP年龄

位于西准噶尔的宝贝金矿主要由石英脉型矿石组成,主要含金矿物为银金矿,以裂隙金和包裹金的形式赋存在毒砂、黄铁矿和石英中。宝贝金矿的黄铁矿普遍含As（最高达3.88%,平均1.49%）。根据脉穿切和矿物共生组合可将宝贝金矿的成矿作用划分出四个成矿阶段：钠长石–石英阶段（I）、银金矿–黄铁矿–毒砂–石英阶段（II）、多金属硫化物浸染状矿化阶段（III）和碳酸盐化阶段（IV）,其中第II和III阶段为主要成矿期。利用锆石SHRIMP方法测定了赋矿围岩（酸性凝灰岩）的形成时代,其U–Pb谐和年龄为328.1±1.8 Ma（MSWD＝1.6, n＝13）。该年龄代表宝贝金矿赋矿围岩的形成时间,即西准噶尔地区大规模中酸性火山岩的喷发时间。
