四川力马河镁铁-超镁铁质岩体的地球化学特征及成岩成矿分析

四川会理力马河镍矿是峨眉山大火成岩省最重要的岩浆硫化物矿床之一,成矿岩体为一小型锾铁-超镁铁岩侵入体,由含斜长石的超镁铁岩(包括舍长辉石橄榄岩和斜长橄榄辉石岩)和辉长岩类的镬铁质岩组成.矿床富含硫化物,成矿元素组合为铜、镍,铂族元素含量很低,没有铂族元素的工业富集,是蛾眉山大火成岩省中富铜镍贫铂族元素的代表性岩浆硫化物矿床.本文对力马河镍矿成矿岩体的镁铁、超镁铁岩及矿床中各种硫化物矿石进行了主量元素、微量元素及铂族元素含量分析.分析结果表明,力马河岩体的镁铁、超镁铁岩属拉斑玄武岩成因系列,岩石特征微量元素比值大致与高钛的峨眉山玄武岩相当、与低钛的峨眉山玄武岩有明显区分,但估计原始岩浆强不相容微量元素绝对含量大大低于高钛玄武岩,因此,其成矿岩体不是与一般的低钛或高钛峨眉山玄武岩(不包括苦橄岩在内)直接对应的深成相.岩体超镁铁岩及矿石铂族元素组成特征表现为无钌亏损的型式,钯/铱比值较小、在5左右,也显著不同于一般的峨眉山玄武岩,而类似于峨眉山大火成岩省苦橄岩的铂族元素组成.运用岩石地球化学研究方法计算,原始岩浆为苦橄质成分:MgO含量约17%、SiO2含量约48%.估计原始岩浆形成于130公里左右的深度,由类似于洋岛玄武岩岩浆源区成分的地幔经19%左右的部分熔融形成.超镁铁岩及硫化物矿石铂族元素含量一般在10-9～10-8暑级,铂族元素相对铜镍强烈亏损,铜/钯比值高于原始地幔10～100倍,铜镍铂族元素组成的原始地幔标准化曲线呈铂族元素显著亏损的“U“型.模式分析说明,导致铂族元素亏损的原因是岩浆成矿演化过程中多阶段硫化物熔离作用造成的,早期熔离出来的硫化物被丢失并造成岩浆中铂族元素亏损,其铂族元素亏损后的岩浆(第)二次硫化物熔离富集形成铂族元素亏损的矿石.

峨眉山大火成岩省岩浆型Cu-Ni-PGE矿化岩体广泛分布,构成峨眉山地幔柱成矿系统中一个非常重要的成矿系列。本文剖析了峨眉山大火成岩省该类矿床的分布及部分典型矿床的地质地球化学特征和矿化特征,揭示了成矿岩体统一的地幔柱成因,阐述了Cu-Ni-PGE成矿作用与峨眉山地幔柱岩浆活动体系的关系,探讨了由于岩浆演化过程及硫化物熔离富集过程的差异所导致的矿化类型变异。指出Cu-Ni-PGE矿床成矿岩体原始岩浆为地幔柱高程度熔融的高镁玄武岩浆,成矿岩体与峨眉山低钛玄武岩同源,矿化岩体主要产于峨眉山地幔柱活动模型的内带低钛玄武岩分布区;金宝山、朱布、力马河、杨柳坪矿床分别代表峨眉山地幔柱Cu-Ni-PGE成矿作用不同成矿机制的端员类型。     

黑龙江五星铜镍、铂钯矿床镁铁质杂岩的元素地球化学特征与岩石成因

五星超镁铁质- 镁铁质杂岩的元素地球化学特征研究表明, 其原始岩浆为低钛、高镁的拉斑玄武岩浆, 由以CO2 为主的流体交代亏损地幔所形成的弱亏损地幔部分熔融产生, 其残余矿物相主要为石榴石、尖晶石和金红石。岩浆形成与演化经历了3 个阶段: ① 上升的软流圈与岩石圈地幔接触, 热流体作用导致岩石圈地幔发生高度部分熔融, 形成初始硫饱和的次碱性玄武岩; ②初始岩浆上侵, 在下地壳形成岩浆房, 岩浆结晶作用形成以似层状橄榄石、紫苏辉石、普通辉石和磁铁矿等为主的堆晶岩, 在地壳物质的参与下形成残余辉长质岩浆; ③ 岩浆房破裂, 残余岩浆和含有熔体( < 30% ) 的堆晶岩相先后上侵形成五星原始镁铁质杂岩。就铜镍和铂钯矿化而言, 铜镍硫化物形成于岩浆房分离结晶晚期的熔离作用, 而铂钯矿化则主要在成岩期后流体作用阶段形成。     

云南金宝山超镁铁岩原始岩浆成分反演

金宝山岩体赋存有我国最大的铂族元素矿床,位于云南省弥渡县,大地构造位置处于杨子地台西缘南端。岩体是呈似层状(岩席)产出的小型超镁铁岩,侵位于泥盆系金宝山组白云岩、泥灰岩、砂板岩中,由橄榄岩、辉橄岩及微辉岩、辉石岩异离体组成,没有完整的相带分异,缺乏分异堆积特征。但岩体铂族元素成矿以铂钯为特征(Pd/Ir>10),硫化物Ni/Cu比值低(0.5～5),岩石稀土元素富集,配分型式为轻稀土富集型,体现基性岩浆衍生产物的岩石地球化学特点。元素含量的组合变化反映出橄榄石对岩石成分的控制作用,成岩母体可视为橄榄石与熔体两部分组成的混合体系,分析表明岩浆经历了11％的橄榄石结晶和22％左右的斜长石结晶分异,大部分熔体相携带斜长石先期离开岩浆房或被压滤出去,残余熔体携带橄榄石结晶颗粒在构造挤压作用下向上运移侵位成岩。根据岩浆演化过程反演,计算得到金宝山超镁铁岩原始岩浆组成,表明为低钛拉斑玄武岩岩浆,MgO含量为12.93％,其形成可能与裂谷作用早期的地幔热柱作用有关,原始岩浆起源于未亏损地幔的部分熔融。     

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.     

东天山镁铁质_超镁铁质岩带岩石特征及铜镍成矿作用

东天山地区分布有众多镁铁质-超镁铁质岩体,岩体成群成带状分布,从北向南可划分为7个区带,受区域性韧性剪切带和断裂构造控制。从岩相学来看,本区含矿岩体可分为多期次侵入的复式杂岩体和单期次侵入的超镁铁质单式杂岩体,显示出深源岩浆充分分异的特征。含矿岩体具有高镁、低碱、低钙、低铝、低钛特征,具有较高的Mg#、m/f和m/s比值,兼具岩浆硫化物熔离作用与岩浆结晶分异作用。根据TiO2-10P2O5-10MnO图判别出本区岩浆具有拉斑玄武岩到钙碱玄武岩过渡的性质,岩浆源具有钙碱性玄武岩浆特征,富含含水矿物,预示了早期俯冲洋壳对幔源岩浆的交代作用。岩体矿化分为3种成矿作用和5期成矿步骤,且岩浆成矿作用与热液作用几乎同时进行,岩浆分异作用提供热液来源,而热液作用促进硫化物的饱和与熔离,造成岩石的热液蚀变结构并对岩浆期成矿进行改造。晚期岩体隆升后,矿体出露地表遭受氧化淋滤作用,形成特有的地表氧化带找矿标志。     

金宝山铂钯矿与力马河镍矿硫同位素组成及成因意义

峨眉山大火成岩省Ni-Cu-PGE矿床可以区分出在成矿元素组成上不同的矿化类型,其中金宝山和力马河两个矿床分别代表富铂族元素和贫铂族元素的两种极端类型,金宝山铂钯矿贫铜镍富铂钯,硫化物含量低、呈浸染状;力马河镍矿贫铂族元素,富含硫化物、矿石以陨铁状或块状为主.岩石地球化学研究已表明,两个矿床成矿岩体岩石地球化学特征基本相同,都是峨眉山大火成岩省玄武质岩浆分异演化的产物,是什么原因造成了矿床成矿元素组成的变化和矿石结构类型的显著差异?对这一问题的探讨,有助于对峨眉山大火成岩省Ni-Cu-PGE成矿作用的系统认识.本文从硫同位素组成特征上对这两个矿床进行了对比分析.     

云南金宝山镁铁-超镁铁岩的地球化学特征及成因

利用熔浆热力学模型模拟金川岩体母岩浆成分和岩浆演化

岩体母岩浆成分是研究岩体形成的基础,而岩浆演化过程是岩体形成的关键,二者是岩石学家关注和研究的重点,也是一个难点.作为最具代表的"小岩体成大矿"的金川岩体,其成岩过程受到广大地质学家的密切关注.汤中立院士(1990;1995)经过长期的勘探和研究认为岩浆演化过程和硫化物熔离均发生在深部岩浆房,提出岩浆"深部分异-熔离,依次贯入"成岩成矿模式.Chai等(1992)则认为金川岩体是大型侵入岩墙的根部,为原地岩浆分异和硫化物熔离的产物,并提出金川岩体的母岩浆为高镁拉玄武岩.然而,进一步研究表明金川含矿岩体各主要岩相及矿体的产状和分布与原地结晶模式相矛盾,岩体硫化物熔离的深部岩浆房与岩浆侵位的浅部岩浆房在空间上是分离的(宋谢炎等,2005),岩体原生橄榄石Fo值表明橄榄石结晶于深部岩浆房(Chusi等,2004).     

甘肃金川Ⅱ号岩浆硫化物含矿岩体岩浆演化过程探讨

金川矿床是我国最大的岩浆铜镍硫化物矿床,岩体主要由硫化物橄榄岩、含辉橄榄岩、二辉橄榄岩和橄榄辉石岩等岩相组成。以金川Ⅱ号岩体为例,根据岩相学观察和常量元素、微量元素地球化学特征的分析,试图对岩浆上升过程中的演化分异进行深入探讨,发现金川Ⅱ号岩体岩浆结晶分异演化过程主要包括深部岩浆房中尖晶石—橄榄石的分离结晶和浅部岩浆房辉石与斜长石的结晶,而地壳物质的同化混染发生在岩浆上升的整个过程,地壳物质的同化混染是导致母岩浆中硫饱和的主要因素。该岩浆分异演化过程间接支持了汤中立提出的"深部分异-熔离,依次贯入"成矿模式。     

Geochemical Characteristics and Metallogenesis of the Qingkuangshan Ni‐Cu‐PGE Mineralized Mafic‐Ultramafic Intrusion in Huili County,Sichuan Province,SW China

The Qingkuangshan Ni-Cu-PGE deposit, located in the Xiaoguanhe region of Huili County, Sichuan Province, is one of several Ni-Cu-PGE deposits in the Emeishan Large Igneous Province (ELIP). The ore-bearing intrusion is a mafic-ultramafic body. This paper reports major elements, trace elements and platinum-group elements in different types of rocks and sulfide-mineralized samples in the intrusion. These data are used to evaluate the source mantle characteristics, the degree of mantle partial melting, the composition of parental magma and the ore-forming processes. The results show that Qingkuangshan intrusion is part of the ELIP. The rocks have trace element ratios similar to the coeval Emeishan basalts. The primitive mantle-normalized patterns of Ni-Cu-PGE have positive slopes, and the ratios of Pd/Ir are lower than 22. The PGE compositions of sulfide ores and associated rocks are characterized by Ru depletion. The PGE contents in bulk sulfides are slightly depleted relative to Ni and Cu, which is similar to the Yangliuping Ni-Cu-PGE deposit. The composition of the parental magma for the intrusion is estimated to contain about 14.65 wt% MgO, 48.66 wt% SiO2 and 15.48 wt% FeOt, and the degree of mantle partial melting is estimated to be about 20%. In comparison with other typical Ni-Cu-PGE deposits in the ELIP, the Qingkuangshan Ni-Cu-PGE deposit has lower PGE contents than the Jinbaoshan PGE deposit, but has higher PGE contents than the Limahe and Baimazhai Ni-Cu deposit, and has similar PGE contents to the Yangliuping Ni-Cu-PGE deposit. The moderate PGE depletions in the bulk sulfide of the Qingkuanghan deposit suggest that the parental magma of the host intrusion may have undergone minor sulfide segregation at depth. The mixing calculations suggests that an average of 10% crustal contamination in the magma, which may have been the main cause of sulfide saturation in the magma. We propose that sulfide segregation from a moderately PGE depleted magma took place prior to magma emplacement at Qingkuangshan, that small amounts of immiscible sulfide droplets and olivine and chromite crystals were suspended in the ascending magma, and that the suspended materials settled down when the magma passed trough the Qingkuangshan conduit. The Qingkuangshan sulfide-bearing intrusion is interpreted to a feeder of Emeishan flood basalts in the region.     

Phase Equilibria Constraints on Relations of Ore‐bearing Intrusions with Flood Basalts in the Panxi Region,Southwestern China

There are two types of temporally and spatially associated intrusions within the Emeishan large igneous province (LIP); namely, small ultramafic subvolcanic sills that host magmatic Cu-Ni-Platinum Group Element (PGE)-bearing sulfide deposits and large mafic layered intrusions that host giant Ti-V magnetite deposits in the Panxi region. However, except for their coeval ages, the genetic relations between the ore-bearing intrusions and extrusive rocks are poorly understood. Phase equilibria analysis (Q-Pl-Ol-Opx-Cpx system) has been carried out to elucidate whether ore-bearing Panzhihua, Xinjie and Limahe intrusions are co-magmatic with the picrites and flood basalts (including high-Ti, low-Ti and alkali basalts), respectively. In this system, the parental magma can be classified as silica-undersaturated olivine basalt and silica-saturated tholeiite. The equivalents of the parental magma of the Xinjie and Limahe peridotites and picrites and low-Ti basalts are silica-undersaturated, whereas the Limahe gabbro-diorites and high-Ti basalts are silica-saturated. In contrast, the Panzhihua intrusion appears to be alkali character. Phase equilibria relations clearly show that the magmas that formed the Panzhihua intrusion and high-Ti basalts cannot be co-magmatic as there is no way to derive one liquid from another by fractional crystallization. On the other hand, the Panzhihua intrusion appears to be related to Permian alkali intrusions in the region, but does not appear to be related to the alkali basalts recognized in the Longzhoushan lava stratigraphy. Comparably, the Limahe intrusion appears to be a genetic relation to the picrites, whereas the Xinjie intrusion may be genetically related to be low-Ti basalts. Additionally, the gabbro-diorites and peridotites of the Limahe intrusion are not co-magmatic, and the former appears to be derived liquid from high-Ti basalts.     

Phase Equilibria Constraints on Relations of Ore-bearing Intrusionswith Flood Basalts in the Panxi Region, Southwestern China

There are two types of temporally and spatially associated intrusions within the Emeishan large igneous province (LIP); namely, small uitramafic subvolcanic sills that host magmatic Cu-Ni-Platinum Group Element (PGE)-bearing sulfide deposits and large mafic layered intrusions that host giant Ti-V magnetite deposits in the Panxi region. However, except for their coeval ages, the genetic relations between the ore-bearing intrusions and extrusive rocks are poorly understood. Phase equilibria analysis (Q-PI-OI-Opx-Cpx system) has been carried out to elucidate whether ore-bearing Panzhihua, Xinjie and Limahe intrusions are co-magmatic with the picrites and flood basalts (including high-Ti, low-Ti and alkali basalts), respectively. In this system, the parental magma can be classified as silica-undersaturated olivine basalt and silica-saturated tholeiite. The equivalents of the parental magma of the Xinjie and Limahe peridotites and picrites and iow-Ti basalts are silica-undersaturated, whereas the Limahe gabbro-diorites and high-Ti basalts are silica-saturated. In contrast, the Panzhihua intrusion appears to be alkali character. Phase equilibria relations clearly show that the magmas that formed the Panzhihua intrusion and high-Ti basalts cannot be co-magmatic as there is no way to derive one liquid from another by fractional crystallization. On the other hand, the Panzhihua intrusion appears to be related to Permian alkali intrusions in the region, but does not appear to be related to the alkali basalts recognized in the Longzhoushan lava stratigraphy. Comparably, the Limabe intrusion appears to be a genetic relation to the picrites, whereas the Xinjie intrusion may be genetically related to be low-Ti basaits. Additionally, the gabbro-diorites and peridotites of the Limahe intrusion are not co-magmatic, and the former appears to be derived liquid from high-Ti basalts.     

Mineralogical,petrological, and geochemical studies of the Limahe mafic–ultramatic intrusion and associated Ni–Cu sulfide ores,SW China

The Limahe Ni–Cu sulfide deposit is hosted by a small mafic–ultramafic intrusion (800 × 200 × 300 m) that is temporally associated with the voluminous Permian flood basalts in SW China. The objective of this study is to better understand the origin of the deposit in the context of regional magmatism which is important for the ongoing mineral exploration in the region. The Limahe intrusion is a multiphase intrusion with an ultramafic unit at the base and a mafic unit at the top. The two rock units have intrusive contacts and exhibit similar mantle-normalized trace element patterns and Sr–Nd isotopic compositions but significantly different cumulus mineralogy and major element compositions. The similarities suggest that they are related to a common parental liquid, whereas the differences point to magma differentiation by olivine crystallization at depth. Sulfide mineralization is restricted to the ultramafic unit. The abundances of sulfides in the ultramafic unit generally increase towards the basal contacts with sedimentary footwall. The δ ³⁴S values of sulfide minerals from the Limahe deposit are elevated, ranging from +2.4 to +5.4‰. These values suggest the involvement of external S with elevated δ ³⁴S values. The mantle-normalized platinum-group element (PGE) patterns of bulk sulfide ores are similar to those of picrites associated with flood basalts in the region. The abundances of PGE in the sulfide ores, however, are significantly lower than that of sulfide liquid expected to segregate from undepleted picrite magma. Cr-spinel and olivine are present in the Limahe ultramafic rocks as well as in the picrites. Mantle-normalized trace element patterns of the Limahe intrusion generally resemble those of the picrites. However, negative Nb–Ta anomalies, common features of contamination with the lower or middle crust, are present in the intrusion but absent in the picrites. Sr–Nd isotopes suggest that the Limahe intrusion experienced higher degrees of contamination with the upper crust than did the picrites. The results of this study permit us to suggest that the parental magma of the Limahe intrusion was derived from picritic magma by olivine fractionation and contamination in a staging chamber at mid-crustal levels. Depletion of PGE in the sulfide ores in the Limahe intrusion is likely due to previous sulfide segregation of the parental magmas in the staging chamber. Sulfide mineralization in the Limahe intrusion is related to second-stage sulfide segregation after the fractionated magmas acquired external S from pyrite-bearing country rocks during magma ascent to the Limahe chamber. The abrupt change in mineralogical and chemical compositions between the ultramafic unit and the overlying unit suggests that at least two separate pulses of magma were involved in the development of the Limahe intrusion. We propose that the Limahe intrusion was once a wider part of a dynamic conduit that fed magma to the overlying subvolcanic dykes/sills or lavas. The ultramafic unit formed by the first, relatively more primitive magma, and the mafic unit formed by the second, relatively more fractionated magma. Immiscible sulfide droplets that segregated from the first magma settled down with olivine crystals to form the sulfide-bearing, olivine-rich rocks in the base of the intrusion. The overlying residual liquids were then pushed out of the chamber by the second magma. Critical factors for the formation of an economic Ni–Cu sulfide deposit in such a small intrusion include the dynamic petrologic processes involved and the availability of external sulfur. The Limahe deposit reminds us that small, multiphase, mafic–ultramafic intrusions in the region should not be overlooked for the potential of economic Ni–Cu sulfide deposits.     

Interaction of magma with sedimentary wall rock and magnetite ore genesis in the Panzhihua mafic intrusion,SW China

In southwestern China, several large magmatic Fe–Ti–V oxide ore deposits are hosted by gabbroic intrusions associated with the Emeishan flood basalts. The Panzhihua gabbroic intrusion, a little deformed sill that contains a large titanomagnetite deposit at its base, concordantly intrudes late-Proterozoic dolostones. Mineralogical and chemical studies of the contact aureole in the footwall dolostones demonstrate that the metamorphism was largely isochemical but released large quantities of CO₂ as the rocks were converted to marble and skarns during intrusion of the gabbroic magma. Petrological modelling of the crystallization of the intrusion, using H₂O-poor Emeishan basalt as parent magma, shows that under normal conditions, Fe–Ti oxides crystallize at a late stage, after the crystallization of abundant olivine, clinopyroxene and plagioclase. In order for titanomagnetite to separate efficiently to form the ore deposit, this mineral must have crystallized earlier and close to the liquidus. We propose that CO₂-rich fluids released during decarbonatization of sedimentary floor rocks passed up through the magma. Redox equilibria calculations show that when magma with the composition of Emeishan basalt is fluxed by a CO₂-rich gas phase, its equilibrium oxygen fugacity (fO₂) increases from the fayalite–magnetite–quartz buffer (FMQ) to FMQ + 1.5. From experimental constraints on magnetite saturation in basaltic magma under controlled fO₂, such an oxidizing event would allow magnetite to crystallize near to the liquidus, leading to the formation of the deposit.     

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.     

云南朱布镁铁-超镁铁岩体地球化学特征及成因机理探讨

云南朱布镁铁-超镁铁岩体赋存中型铜镍铂族元素矿床,侵位于元谋群片岩和花岗片麻岩中,岩体垂直分异明显,自下而上为橄榄岩、橄辉岩、辉石岩、辉长岩等相带.矿体以底部“边缘矿”为主,上部有呈透镜状产出的少量“上悬矿”.本文报道了朱布岩体主元素、微量元素、铂族元素(PGE)和 Sr-Nd 同位素组成新的测试结果.分析表明朱布岩体具有拉斑玄武质岩浆分异演化趋势,富集 LREE 的分布模式,弱的Nb 异常和较明显的 Sr 负异常,并与峨眉山大火成岩省(ELIP)苦橄岩相类似,暗示两者可能存在成因上的联系.朱布岩体的铂族元素相对分布模式为“Pt-Pd”富集型,原始地幔标准化曲线向左陡倾.较高的(87Sr/86Sr)i (0.7096~0.7107)和较低的εNd(t)(-3.1~-2.3),表明朱布岩浆受到了地壳物质不同程度的混染.通过岩浆演化过程反演,得出其母岩浆性质为苦橄质,并估算地壳混染程度在3%~20%之间,发现在 R (岩浆与熔离硫化物的比例)值为1000~5000时比较吻合朱布样品中硫化物的实际测定值,证实了朱布岩体可能为开放系统的岩浆房,经过多级富集过程,先熔出的硫化物从后续多期次岩浆中吸收了大量 PGE,岩浆房中同时存在堆晶和岩浆演化,分别形成了底层橄榄岩和上部的辉长岩,中间过渡为橄辉岩和辉石岩     

东天山香山铜镍-钛铁成矿与两类岩浆演化关系探讨

香山矿床是东天山唯一一个铜镍矿体与钛铁矿体共存的复合型矿床,目前普遍被认为是同源岩浆高度演化的产物。但为何区内众多同时代镁铁-超镁铁质岩体中只有香山岩体产出有大型钛铁矿床?这一问题仍有待进一步探讨。本文通过系统对比香山与其相邻的黄山东、黄山和黄山南等典型铜镍矿的地球化学特征、母岩浆性质及岩浆演化过程,认为香山岩体母岩浆相对其相邻典型铜镍矿床并不富集Fe和Ti,且其母岩浆早期演化过程及分异演化程度相似。模拟计算表明:岩浆体系早期都处于较还原的环境(f_(O_2)QFM+1),而且都发生了大量橄榄石、斜方辉石和单斜辉石的分离结晶和硫化物的熔离,由此消耗了岩浆体系中大量的Fe,导致残余岩浆中Fe含量降低;另外在岩浆演化的各阶段,尤其到岩浆演化后期,大量角闪石的结晶进一步降低了残余岩浆中的Fe和Ti的含量,不能造成Fe和Ti的逐渐富集,据此我们认为同源岩浆演化不具备形成钛铁矿床的物质基础。通过初步对比东天山地区典型铜镍矿床和钛铁矿床与该地区早二叠世两类玄武岩的地球化学特征及演化趋势,我们初步推测东天山地区铜镍成矿与钛铁成矿是两类不同性质岩浆独立演化的产物,铜镍成矿可能与拉斑玄武质岩浆演化密切相关,而钛铁矿则可能与碱性玄武岩演化密切相关。     

松潘-甘孜地块丹巴二叠纪玄武岩的主、微量元素和Sr-Nd同位素研究:岩石成因与构造意义

松潘-甘孜地块的丹巴二叠纪玄武岩(大石包组)具有较高的TiO2含量(>2%)和高的Ti/Y比值(平均519),显示LREE富集、HREE亏损的右倾型稀土配分型式((La/Yb)N=4.2~13.6),εNd(t)=-0.33~2.70,具有洋岛玄武岩(OIB)地球化学特征,形成于大陆板内环境。其源区来自原始地幔始于石榴子石稳定区的低程度部分熔融,岩浆上升过程中有来自地壳物质的加入,因而其不相容元素比值如Zr/Nb(4.41~13.09)、La/Nb(1.03~1.80)和Th/La(0.08~0.18)等,以及初始的87Sr/86Sr比值(0.706008~0.707257)均表现出不同程度的富集特征,岩浆演化早期经历了以辉石、橄榄石为主的分离结晶作用。该套玄武岩的元素-同位素地球化学特征和源区性质类似于峨眉山溢流玄武岩的高钛(HT)系列,因此认为其是峨眉山地幔柱活动的产物,属于峨眉山大火成岩省(ELIP)的一部分。松潘-甘孜地块和扬子西缘晚古生代以前地层的可比性以及峨眉山溢流玄武岩的分布特征显示,松潘-甘孜洋盆伴随着扬子克拉通的裂解而打开,并且可能都与峨眉山地幔柱有关,是地幔柱活动的浅部地质响应。

晚二叠世峨眉山地幔柱岩浆作用同时形成了Cu-Ni-PGE硫化物矿床和V-Ti-Fe氧化物矿床等不同类型的岩浆矿床。从硫化物矿床的PGE富集型、Cu-Ni-PGE富集型到Cu-Ni富集型,再到钒钛磁铁矿矿床,成矿基性-超基性岩体中基性岩石比例逐渐增加,PGE含量降低。铜镍铂族硫化物矿床具Nb和Ta负异常,岩浆流体组分含量较高,含有较高的H₂;而钒钛磁铁矿矿床具Nb、Ta和Ti正异常,Zr和Hf负异常,岩浆流体组分含量较低,含有较高的H₂O、CO₂和H₂。两类矿床强不相容元素和轻稀土元素(LREE)富集,Sr-Nd同位素组成与峨眉山玄武岩的演化趋势一致。Sr-Nd-Os-C-He同位素组成揭示岩浆上升过程中经历了不同程度的地壳混染,高钛玄武岩和钒钛磁铁矿矿床成矿岩体的地壳混染程度较低,部分低钛玄武岩和铜镍硫化物矿床存在明显的地壳混染。这两类岩浆矿床的形成与峨眉山地幔柱玄武岩浆有关,岩浆介质环境中H₂含量较高,V-Ti-Fe 氧化物矿床的形成与分离结晶、高含量的水和氧逸度的升高有关,Cu-Ni-(PGE)硫化物矿床的形成与还原性流体介质、结晶分异和地壳混染作用有关。
