Late Paleozoic granitoids of western Transbaikalia: magma sources and stages of formation

Geochemical and geochronological studies of the main types of granitoids of the Angara-Vitim batholith (AVB) and granites of the Zaza complex in western Transbaikalia were carried out. U-Pb (SHRIMP-II) and Rb-Sr dating yielded the age of autochthonous gneiss-granites of the Zelenaya Griva massif (325.3±2.8 Ma), quartz syenites of the Khangintui pluton (302.3±3.7 Ma) and intruding leucogranites of the Zaza complex (294.4±1 Ma), monzonites of the Khasurta massif (283.7±5.3 Ma), and quartz monzonites of the Romanovka massif (278.5±2.4 Ma). The U-Pb and Rb-Sr dates show that the Late Paleozoic magmatism in western Transbaikalia proceeded in two stages: (1) 340–320 Ma, when predominantly mesocratic granites of the Barguzin complex, including autochthonous ones, formed, and (2) 310–270 Ma, when most AVB granitoids formed. We suggest that at the early stage, crustal peraluminous granites formed in collision geodynamic setting. At the late (main) stage, magmatism occurred in postorogenic-extension setting and was accompanied by the formation of several geochemical types of granitoids: (1) typical intrusive mesocratic granites of the Barguzin complex, similar to those produced at the first stage; (2) melanocratic granitoids (monzonitoids, quartz syenites), which were earlier dated to the early stage of the AVB evolution; (3) leucocratic medium-alkali (peraluminous) granites of the Zaza intrusive complex; and (4) some alkali-granite and syenite intrusions accompanied by alkaline mafic rocks. The diversity of granitoids that formed at the late stage of magmatism was due to the heterogeneous composition of crust protoliths and different degrees of mantle-magma participation in their formation.     

Permian age of the Burpala alkaline pluton, Northern Transbaikalia: Geodynamic implications

This paper presents the U-Pb zircon age of pulaskite of the main phase (294 ± 1 Ma) and the rare metal syenite (283 ± 8 Ma) of the Burpala alkaline pluton. The geochronological data show that it was formed in the Early Permian. By age, it is comparable with the Synnyr pluton of the Synnyr rift zone, alkaline granitic rocks and bimodal volcanic associations of the Uda-Vitim rift zone, and carbonatites of the Saizhen rift zone of the Central Asian foldbelt. These intraplate igneous complexes were formed almost simultaneously with crustal granitic rocks of the Angara-Vitim batholite. All of this gives ground to suppose that the origination of their parental melts is a result of the influence of the mantle hot spot or mantle plume on the lithosphere that led to extensive crustal anatexis.     

SOVETSKAYA GEOLOGIYA (SOVIET GEOLOGY) IN COVER-TO-COVER TRANSLATION, 1960, NOS. 11 AND 12

The Río Negro-Juruena Province (RNJP) occupies a large portion of the western part of the Amazonian Craton and is a zone of complex granitization and migmatization. Regional metamorphism, in general, occurred in the upper amphibolite facies. The granites and gneisses of the RNJP yield Rb-Sr and Pb-Pb whole-rock isochron dates ranging from 1.8 Ga to 1.55 Ga, with initial ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr ratios of ～ 0.703 and a single-stage model μ₁ value of ～ 8.1. In order to improve the geochronological control, SHRIMP U-Pb zircon ages, conventional U-Pb zircon ages, and additional Pb-Pb whole-rock isochron ages were determined for samples of granitoids and gneisses from the Papuri-Uaupés and Guaviare-Orinoco rivers areas (northern part of the province) and Jamari-Machado rivers and Pontes de Lacerda areas (southern part). The granitoids from the northern part of the province yield conventional U-Pb zircon ages of 1709 ± 17 Ma and 1521 ± 31 Ma, and SHRIMP U-Pb concordant zircon results of 1800 ± 18 Ma. Samples of gneissic rocks from the southern part of the RNJP yielded SHRIMP U-Pb concordant ages of 1750 ± 24 Ma and 1570 ± 17 Ma and a Pb-Pb whole-rock isochron age of 1717 ± 120 Ma. These new U-Pb and Pb-Pb results confirm the previous Rb-Sr and Pb-Pb geochronological evidence that the main magmatic episodes within the RNJP occurred between 1.8 and 1.55 Ga, and suggest that this crustal province constitutes a segment of continental crust newly added to the Amazonian Craton at the end of the Early Proterozoic. In the area of the RNJP, there are several anorogenic rapakivi-type granite plutons. Because of the absence of recognized Archean material within the basement rocks, it is reasonable to consider the Early to Middle Proterozoic continental crust as the magmatic source for the rapakivi granite intrusions.     

西苏门答腊实武牙地区晚三叠世花岗岩锆石年代学及其特提斯构造意义

苏门答腊岛位于东特提斯构造域,沿该岛分布了大量不同时代和成因的花岗岩,但这些花岗岩的形成时代和延伸以及对比均未能得到很好的界定,也限制了对东南亚主要岩浆岩带延伸及其构造背景的理解.对西苏门答腊实武牙地区新识别出的花岗岩体开展了精细的LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb年代学研究.结果显示,3个花岗岩样品的锆石均为典型的岩浆成因,其岩浆年龄分别为215.1±2.4 Ma（MSWD=0.14）、206.1±5 Ma（MSWD=0.22）、214.3±5 Ma（MSWD=0.11）,锆石年代学研究表明西苏门答腊存在晚三叠世的岩浆作用.对比东南亚花岗岩省内同期侵入岩认为,西苏门答腊实武牙地区的晚三叠世花岗岩可与东南亚西部花岗岩省进行对比和联系,该套晚三叠世花岗岩可能形成于中特提斯洋初始俯冲的弧后裂谷环境.      

Late Paleozoic alkali-granitic magmatism of Tuva and its relation to intraplate activity within the Siberian paleocontinent

Geological, petrologeochemical, and geochronological studies of the rocks from the Shivei alkali-granitic pluton were conducted. A pluton about 500 km² in area is a part of the larger (more than 30 000 km²) Kaakhem magmatic area. The data obtained allow us to characterize the magmatic complex of the Shivei pluton as a bimodal association with picrobasalts, subalkali basalts, and subalkali and alkali granitic rocks differentiated from syenites to leucogranites. The SHRIMP_II zircon dating from quartz syenites and alkali granites indicate the Permian age of the pluton (293.8 ± 3.8 Ma and 297.1 ± 3.8 Ma, respectively). Mafic-alkali-granitic associations similar in age and type, which are traced in the meridional direction along the Eastern Sayan toward the Siberian Platform, were distinguished as the Eastern Sayan zone of the Late Paleozoic alkaline magmatism. Its location corresponds to the western periphery of the Angaro-Vitim batholite and fits well into the zonal structure of the Barguzin magmatic province. We relate the geodynamic position of the Barguzin province with the mantle plume that was overlapped by the edge of the Siberian Pale-ocontinent in the course of its Paleozoic migration above the African hot spot.

Neoproterozoic A-type granites of the Garevka massif, Yenisey Ridge: Age, sources, and geodynamic setting

This paper presents the results of geochemical, isotopic (Sm-Nd), and geochronological (U-Pb and Ar-Ar) investigations of leucogranites from the Garevka massif in the Transangara segment of the Yenisey Ridge. The most distinctive geochemical characteristics of these A-type granitoids are the enrichment in silica, potassium, iron, and fluorine and a considerable depletion in europium. Using U-Pb zircon geochronology, the age of the Garevka leucogranites was estimated as 752 ± 3 Ma, which allowed us to attribute them to a previously established Neoproterozoic tectonic event related to the collision of the Central Angara terrane and the Siberian craton. The parental melts of the granitoids were probably derived by melting of a mixed source composed of continental crustal rocks of Paleoproterozoic and Mesoproterozoic and (or) Neoproterozoic ages. Based on the obtained petrological, geochemical, and geochronological data, the leucogranites of the Garevka massif were assigned to the Neoproterozoic postcollisional Glushikha complex.     

内蒙古维拉斯托矿床花岗岩类SHRIMP年代学及Hf同位素研究

维拉斯托铜多金属矿床地处中亚造山带和大兴安岭造山带的叠加复合部位,该矿床花岗岩类锆石SHRIMP U-Pb测年结果显示为(298.0±2.5)Ma、(308.3±4.2)Ma、(313.9±3.4)Ma和(320.5±4.1)Ma,表明该矿区花岗岩类的成岩时代为晚石炭世。岩石地球化学特征表明它们为岩浆弧活动的产物。除花岗闪长岩样品锆石的εHf(t)为-4.1～+4.08外,其他3件黑云母花岗岩、黑云母二长花岗岩、石英闪长岩样品锆石ε_Hf(t)为正值,为+0.4～+9.9,锆石Hf模式年龄的峰值与古亚洲洋发育的时间较为一致,暗示矿区花岗岩类源区物质主要为俯冲的古亚洲洋壳以及少量前寒武纪地壳。矿区花岗岩类系统研究为探讨晚古生代兴蒙造山带的演化过程提供了基础资料,为该铜多金属矿床的成因研究提供了新的证据。     

New SHRIMP U-Pb zircon ages of the metapelitic granulites from NW of Madurai,Southern India

Zircon cathodoluminescent imaging and SHRIMP U-Pb dating were carried out for metapelitic rocks (sapphirine-bearing granulites and garnet-cordierite gneisses) from the NW of Madurai, Southern India. The cathodoluminescence images reveal the complex, inhomogeneous internal structure having irregular-shaped core and overgrowths. Zircon grains have obliterated oscillatory zoning. SHRIMP U-Pb chronological results yield ages of 550±15 Ma and 530±50 Ma as a time of metamorphic overprint, and the age of 2509±12 Ma and 2509±30 Ma corresponding to a timing of protolith formation for sapphirine-bearing granulites and garnet-cordierite gneisses respectively. Zircon ages reflect that continental crust in the NW of Madurai region resulted from the recycling of Archaean protolith of an igneous origin similar to the preserved crust in the southern part of Dharwar craton. The present SHRIMP U-Pb zircon ages are in close agreement with earlier published Nd isotopic data which suggest an extended precrustal history of their protoliths. The abraded zircon grains indicate multiple recycling and repeated metamorphism that has ultimately resulted in present day continental crust exposed in Madurai region. These SHRIMP U-Pb zircon ages from metapelitic UHT granulites are also significant to understanding the architecture of the SGT during the amalgamation of Gondwana in Neoproterozoic time.     

Isotopic geochronology of the archean posttectonic association of sanukitoids, syenites, and granitoids in central Karelia

The U-Pb geochronological study (by the classic technique and on an ion microprobe) of syenites from central Karelia has established their Archean age. The age values obtained for individual massifs are 2735 ± 15 Ma for syenites from the Sjargozero Massif and 2745 ± 10 Ma for syenite from the Khizhjarvi Massif. The syenites are demonstrated to have been emplaced nearly synchronously with sanukitoid massifs in central Karelia, whose average age is 2743 ± 3 Ma (Bibikova et al., 2005). The syenites of the Sjargozero Massif and granodiorites of the Ust-Volomsky Massif were determined to have practically identical ages of 2735 and 2738 Ma, respectively, a fact also corroborating the coeval character of the syenites and granodiorites. Some zircon grains from the Sjargozero syenites contain cores with an age of about 2755 Ma, which suggests that the syenites could have been contaminated with the material of the host volcanic rocks of basaltic and andesitic composition that were metamorphosed at 2750–2760 Ma. The results of the isotopic geochronologic research indicate that the different rock groups composing the Archean postorogenic association of sanukitoids, syenites, and granitoids in central Karelia have been generated in a single stage at approximately 2740 Ma, i.e., 60–70 m.y. after the origin of the syntectonic tonalites. The zircons have elevated Th/U ratios, which is consistent with the mantle genesis of the rocks. Significant crustal contamination was identified in the most acid members of the sanukitoid series: syenites and granitoids. Our data obtained for zircons from the sanukitoids and syenites of the Karelian craton in the Baltic Shield are in good agreement with the results obtained on the sanukitoids of the Canadian Shield.     

Zircon Trace Element Constraints on U-Pb Dating: A Case Study of the Huayuangong A-type Granite in the Lower Yangtze Region,Eastern China

For magmatic rocks, it is often found that zircon 206 Pb/238 U and 207 Pb/235 U ratios continuously plot on the concordia line with a relatively large age span for the same sample, which gives rise to large dating errors or even unrealistic dating results. As the trace element concentrations of zircon can reflect its equilibrated magma characteristics, they can be used to determine whether all the analytical spots on the zircons selected to calculate the weighted mean age are cogenetic and formed in a single magma chamber. This work utilizes the results of zircon trace element concentrations and U-Pb isotopic analyses to explore the screening of reasonable U-Pb ages, which can be used to determine a more accurate intrusion crystallization age. The late Mesozoic Huayuangong granitic pluton complex, which is located in the Lower Yangtze region, eastern China, was selected for a case study. The Huayuangong pluton comprises the central intrusion and the marginal intrusion. Two samples from the marginal intrusion yielded consistent zircon weighted mean 206 Pb/238 U ages of 124.6 ± 2.0 Ma and 125.9 ± 1.6 Ma. These analytical spots also exhibit Zr/Hf and Th/U ratios concordant with the evolution of a single magma, from which the dated zircons crystallized. However, for the central intrusion, the analytical spots on zircons from two samples all show a continuous distribution on the concordia line with a relatively large age span. For each sample from the central intrusion, the zircon Zr/Hf ratios do not conform to a single magma evolutionary trend, but rather can be divided into two groups. We propose that zircon Zr/Hf ratios can provide a new constraint on U-Pb zircon dating and zircon Th/U ratios can also be used as a supplementary indicator to constrain zircon dating and determine the origins of the zircons and whether magma mixing has occurred. By screening zircon analytical spots using these two indicators, the two samples from the central intrusion of the Huayuangong pluton produce results of 122.8 ± 4.3 Ma and 122.9 ± 2.2 Ma, which are consistent with the field observations that the central intrusion is slightly younger than the marginal intrusion.     

西藏罗布莎康金拉铬铁矿区地幔橄榄岩锆石SHRIMP U-Pb年龄及地质意义

本文对罗布莎蛇绿岩康金拉11号铬铁矿矿体的近矿围岩纯橄岩和方辉橄榄岩分别进行了锆石SHRIMP U-Pb年代学研究。结果显示两个样品的年龄都非常发散:纯橄岩的时代跨越早白垩世到太古宙,年龄125.6±2.6~1791±23Ma,4粒锆石的加权平均年龄为130.0±2.8Ma(2.1%)。而方辉橄榄岩的年龄208.9±3.7~2770±44Ma,从晚三叠世到太古宙,2粒锆石的加权平均值为209.7±5.2Ma(2.5%),锆石的复杂年代学结果反映该岩石经历的多阶段地质演化过程。激光拉曼分析显示纯橄岩和方辉橄榄岩中的锆石含磷灰石、长石和石英为主的地壳物质包裹体,暗示其地壳成因,记录了地幔经历了地壳混染过程。这些物质存在于由洋底扩张形成的蛇绿岩中,表明俯冲下去的大陆地壳物质在地幔循环中被运移到海底扩张脊并出露地表。结合我们在康金拉地幔橄榄岩和铬铁矿中发现的大量异常地幔矿物,可能显示了一个地壳物质俯冲至地幔,而后从洋脊回到地表的物质循环过程,佐证了豆荚状铬铁矿多阶段多期次的演化模式。     

南泥湖—三道庄钼(钨)矿的成岩成矿年龄新数据及其地质意义

南泥湖—三道庄矿床是东秦岭地区最大的斑岩-矽卡岩型钼（钨）矿,研究采用LA-ICP-MS方法对南泥湖—三道庄矿区内南泥湖花岗岩体和花岗斑岩脉开展锆石U-Pb法测年,获得矿区内花岗岩成岩年龄为（145.2±1.5）^146.7±1.2Ma。采集南泥湖矿区网脉状辉钼矿化样品和三道庄矿区浸染状辉钼矿化样品开展ICP-MS法辉钼矿Re-Os同位素测年,获得10个样品的模式年龄为（143.4±2.0）^146.5±2.3Ma（加权平均年龄为145.03±0.69 Ma）,等时线年龄为（146.0±1.1）Ma。表明矿区内花岗岩与矿脉的形成年龄一致,具有密切的成因联系。另外,此次测年工作确认了前人曾提出的158 Ma左右岩浆-热事件的存在,还揭示出东秦岭地区在175 Ma左右曾经历过另外一次岩浆热事件。前人测得南泥湖岩体年龄与其真实的形成年龄相差较大,这是因为岩浆岩中的锆石来源不均一,而测试的锆石数量有限,采用测量数据的加权平均值不能真实地代表岩浆岩中全体锆石的年龄特征。     

The Age of Transformation of Rare-Metal Alkaline Granites of the Katugin Massif (Aldan Shield)

The U–Pb (ID TIMS) geochronological studies of single zircon grains and their fragments have made it possible to establish that rare-metal alkaline granites of the Katugin massif (2055 ± 7?2066 ± 6 Ma) underwent high-temperature transformations at age levels of ~1921 ± 5 and 1876 ± 7 Ma.     

Zircon LA-ICP-MS dating and geochemical characteristics of I-type granitoids from the Yanhu area,west segment of the Bangongco-Nujiang suture (western Tibet): Petrogenesis and implications for the southward subduction of the Tethyan Ocean

The Yanhu granitoids are located in the west segment of the Bangongco-Nujiang suture in the western Tibetan Plateau. The main rock types of the granitoids are diorite porphyry, quartz diorite, granodiorite, granite and granite porphyry. Here, their zircon LA-ICP-MS U-Pb ages and petrogeochemical data are reported. Three groups of magmatic events can be distinguished from the Yanhu area: group 1 includes samples AK01 and ZK01 of diorite porphyry, and sample D3658 of quartz diorite that yield mean zircon U-Pb ages of 121.0 ± 2.7 Ma, 116.6 ± 2.0 Ma and 116.0 ± 3.9 Ma, respectively; group 2 includes sample D0050 of diorite porphyry, samples D1393 and D3660 of granodiorite and sample D3065 of granite porphyry that yield mean zircon U-Pb ages of 104.9 ± 2.0 Ma, 105.4 ± 3.8 Ma, 104.2 ± 1.9 Ma and 104.2 ± 1.9 Ma, respectively; group 3 includes sample D3093 of granite that yields mean zircon U-Pb ages of 93.6 ± 1.5 Ma. The zircon LA-ICP-MS U-Pb ages suggest that the Yanhu granitoids were emplaced at 121.0–93.6 Ma, representing Cretaceous magmatism in the west segment of the Bangongco-Nujiang suture. The granitoids are composed of SiO₂ (56.57 to 76.98 wt.%), Al₂O₃ (12.20 to 17.90 wt.%), Na₂O (3.61 to 4.98 wt.%), K₂O (2.06 to 4.71 wt.%) and CaO (0.27 to 5.74 wt.%). The Yanhu granitoids exhibit enrichment in LREE (light REE) and LILE (large ion lithophile elements) such as Rb, Th, U, Pb and K and depletion of HREE (heavy REE), P, Ti, Nb, Ta and Zr. Their A/CNK ratios of 0.85-1.06 are <1.1, implying that they are high-K, metaluminous-weakly peraluminous I-type granites. TheYanhu granitoids were generated mainly by partial melts of the meta-igneous lower crust and some arc-related materials. The Yanhu granitoids probably formed in VAG and syn-COLG tectonic settings related to the southward subduction of the Tethyan Ocean. Diorite porphyry and quartz diorite magmatism from 121.0 Ma to 116.0 Ma may be associated with the southward Bangongco–Nujiang Tethys oceanic crust subduction. Diorite porphyry, granodiorite, and granite porphyry magmatism from 105.4 Ma to 104.2 Ma may be associated with the rising asthenosphere induced by the slab breakoff. Granite magmatism from 93.6 Ma may be related to the crustal thickening induced by the final amalgamation of the Lhasa Terrane and the Qiangtang Terrane.     

华北克拉通南缘安沟群的SHRIMP年龄及地层对比

华北克拉通南缘安沟群的时代及地层划分对比一直存有争议.侵吞安沟群的许台花岗岩原划为古元古代,本文通过SHRIMP测试,获得其精确的形成年龄为2503±11Ma.安沟群石梯沟组变质酸性火山岩的SHRIMP锆石U-Ph年龄为2521±11Ma,安沟群寨沟组变质酸性火山岩的SHRIMP锆石U-Ph年龄为2517±12Ma,表明安沟群形成于新太古代,与登封群和五台群的形成时代基本一致.安沟群地层的原岩组合为基性火山岩-中酸性火山岩、泥质.碎屑沉积岩和少量碳酸盐岩,总体上与登封群和五台群的原岩组合类似.
