大冶-武山矿化夕卡岩的稀土元素地球化学研究

用ICP-MS分析了25个含矿夕卡岩样品的REE含量,其中对8个样品的石榴子石等矿物中的熔融包裹体进行了均一温度测定,还对5个夕卡岩样品石榴子石中的熔融包裹体进行了电子探针分析.在这些样品的石榴子石、辉石或方解石中都观察到熔融包裹体.夕卡岩的球粒陨石标准化REE分布模式具有两个突出特点:其一是以富集轻稀土元素(LREE)右倾为特征;其二是多数以具有Eu正异常为特征.夕卡岩球粒陨石标准化REE分布模式有三种类型:第一类型显示斜率不大的右倾直线;第二类型具有以Ce为峰值的折线的特征,即REE线段向上凸,在Ce处有一极大值(个别无峰值,LREE曲线向上凸,呈穹隆状);第三类型为过渡型REE分布模式.在当今REE资料有限的情况下,利用稀土元素地球化学特点鉴别夕卡岩成因是困难的.     

新疆阿尔泰可可托海3号伟晶岩脉磷灰石矿物中稀土元素“四分组效应”及其意义

新疆阿尔泰可可托海3号伟晶岩脉磷灰石矿物中稀土元素（REE）和其他微量元素的ICP－MS分析结果表明，Y／Ho,Zr/Hf和Nb/Ta明显偏离球粒陨石中对应的比值，并存在显著的REE“四分组效应”，REE“四分组效应”量化特征参数TE3，4主要与Y／Ho,Nb/Ta分异程度有关，与δEu负异常演化程度相一致，锰铝榴石也呈现REE“四分组效应”和Y／Ho,Nb/Ta显著分异，指示REE“四分组效应”是形成伟晶岩熔体的一个基本特征，并不是由富LREE矿物（如独居石）和富HREE矿物（如四榴子石）结晶引起的残余熔体REE含量的异常变化，其机制可能是富F，B和P的过铝质窝本与含水流体间相互作用，REE在流体相／熔体相的分配受温度，压力和流体相组成复合控制的综合结果。     

球粒陨石富金属Fe—Ni相的高压熔融实验与地核形成机制的探讨

选用吉林陨石富金属相,在3GPa压力、405℃～1850℃温度下,采用两种组装方式进行实验。并与先前肇东陨石全岩样的高压熔融实验进行比较。三个系列实验结果的综合对比表明,高温高压下球粒陨石中金属和硫化物经历了固相扩散、熔融和熔体聚集的过程。固相扩散使金属与硫化物彼此结合,形成了若干个小的FeNi-FeNiS二元系,使其在比Fe-Ni熔点低的温度下熔融形成Fe-Ni-S熔体。该熔体与硅酸盐熔体不相混溶,因而发生自身的合并与聚集。其合并和聚集速率与硅酸盐粘度有关。实验过程中陨石里的磷酸盐矿物可以被还原,使单质P进入金属硫化物相。这些实验结果为讨论地核的形成机理提供了依据。     

碳酸盐化泥质岩在6.0 GPa下的部分熔融行为研究

深俯冲碳酸盐化泥质岩的部分熔融行为研究是探索地球深部碳循环必不可少的方向之一,对地球深部物质循环、岩浆形成以及地幔化学成分不均一等过程起着不容忽视的作用。本文利用多顶砧大压机探索了6.0 GPa、800~1 600℃下碳酸盐化泥质岩的部分熔融行为,实验产物主要包括石榴子石、单斜辉石、柯石英、蓝晶石、碳酸盐矿物、多硅白云母以及熔体。碳酸盐矿物为方解石和菱镁矿,存在于6.0 GPa固相线以下的实验产物中。相对于同等压力下其它碳酸盐化体系,本文实验体系具有最低的固相线。部分熔融产生的熔体为硅酸盐熔体,且随着温度的升高,熔体比例逐渐增加,熔体成分也发生了明显的变化。     

麻粒岩相混合岩的出熔

麻粒岩相地体中的混合岩一般由发育于较细粒的叶理化基质中的一些粗粒的无水残留体细脉或网脉(活化体)所构成,我们认为这些特征是不一致的脱水熔融反应的结果(Waters,1988)。活化体并不代表分离熔融的成分,而是代表不同比例的(i)熔体(ii)不一致熔融的固体产物以及(iii)反应中没有被消耗掉的剩余相。在变质泥质岩和黑云母片麻岩中,近固相线的熔融成分为花岗质的,其水的含量可以做为T的函数估算出来,熔融反应可以达到平衡,因此生成相的相对体积也可预测。我们将计算的产物与实际观察的南非Nawagudand麻粒岩相混合岩的相分配和数量进行比较,在角闪岩与麻粒岩过渡带(约750℃)大约活化体中的典型成份表明有10     

麻粒岩相条件下熔融反应与矿物相转变机制的实验研究

麻粒岩相条件下石榴黑云斜长片麻岩实验结果表明,含水矿物黑云母(Bi)脱水熔融、长英质矿物部分熔融的性质主要受控于温度条件;而矿物相转变不仅受控于温压条件,而且与脱水熔融、部分熔融存在密切成因联系。依据Bi脱水熔融性质和石榴石(Gi)转变反应特征,可划分以下三个阶段:(1)当温度在700℃时,Bi转变为钛铁矿(Ilm)+磁铁矿(Mt)+H_2O,Gt转变为Mt,(2)当温度在730—760℃,Bi脱水熔融为富K_2O熔体(Melt)+Ilm+Mt,Gt转变为紫苏辉石(Hy)+堇青石(Crd);(3)当温度大于790℃时,Bi脱水熔融为Melt+Hy+Ilm+Mt+H_2O,Gt则转变为Hy+尖晶石(Sp)+Crd组合。熔体比例和熔体演化特征除受温压条件控制外,与长英质矿物部分熔融程度和脱水熔融性质关系密切。实验结果显示,在麻粒岩相变质作用以及与其相伴随的重熔作用(或区域性混合岩化作用)过程中,不仅存在传统的固相+固相(或流体相)的反应和脱水熔融反应,而且存在熔体参与的变质反应(即:未熔矿物与熔体之间的反应)。该项实验对深入探讨麻粒岩相矿物演化的成因机制及其动力学意义提供可靠的实验依据。     

变基性岩部分熔融过程中榍石的微量元素效应:以南迦巴瓦混合岩为例

南迦巴瓦地区广泛出露的中下地壳变基性岩部分熔融形成的层状混合岩和淡色花岗岩,为研究部分熔融过程中榍石的地球化学行为对熔体的微量元素组成的影响提供了良好的机会。相对于源岩或熔融残留体,淡色体亏损Ti、V、REE、Y、Nb、Ta、U等元素,与混合岩中榍石的微量元素特征互补。混合岩、淡色体和榍石微量元素特征表明南迦巴瓦角闪岩部分熔融形成的淡色体的微量元素特征主要受控于榍石的地球化学行为。角闪岩脱水部分熔融过程中,由于长英质熔体的低Ti溶解度,榍石以未熔残留体形式存在于暗色体中,导致熔体亏损Ti、REE、Nb、Ta、V、U等元素和Sr/Y比值相对升高。关键元素在榍石和熔体之间的配分系数受熔体成分影响明显。角闪岩中变质榍石D_Nb/Ta<1,因此变质榍石残留导致熔体Nb/Ta相对于源岩升高;而高Si-Al花岗质熔体中榍石D_Nb/Ta>1,因此与高Si-Al熔体平衡的榍石的分离（转熔或结晶分异）将导致熔体Nb/Ta比值相对源岩降低。榍石在部分熔融过程中的微量元素效应为理解变基性岩部分熔融产生熔体的地球化学特征提供新的认识。     

湘江悬浮物的稀土元素地球化学研究

在湘江及其支流采集了44件悬浮物样品进行稀土元素 ICP—MS分析。研究表明,湘江悬浮物中稀土总量(∑REE)、轻稀土(LREE) 和重稀土(HREE)含量分别为63～387 μg/g,58.2～353 μg/g和4.8～34μg/g。尽管湘江悬浮物中稀土分布不均匀,稀土含量相差很大,所有样品的球粒陨石标准化曲线均呈向右倾斜的富LREE的模式,北美页岩标准化模式为LREE稍富集的平坦型。湘江中下游河心与两岸水体悬浮物中稀土发生了明显分异。湘江悬浮颗粒物中REE受多方面因素控制,其源区控制了REE分配模式,而其稀土元素含量与颗粒中粘土矿物及重矿物有关。支流捞刀河悬浮物稀土的分布模式为Eu正异常型,与北美页岩有显著差别,捞刀河的悬浮物物源及成因有待进一步研究。     

柴西缘花土沟超高温变质地体中的镁铝麻粒岩岩石成因及其与熔体行为的关系

镁铝麻粒岩泛指一类全岩化学成分富镁、铝的麻粒岩相变质岩,是研究超高温变质作用的峰期变质条件和变质演化历史的重要对象,但目前对它的原岩属性和岩石成因的认识仍十分有限。本文以柴达木地块西缘的花土沟超高温变质地体为例,在野外调查基础上,对镁铝麻粒岩和泥质片麻岩进行了岩相学和全岩地球化学分析,发现镁铝麻粒岩与含浅色体的泥质片麻岩的SiO₂、TiO₂、P₂O₅ 含量相似,^TFe₂O₃、Al₂O₃、MnO、CaO、Na₂O含量虽有差异但变化范围存在交集。此外,两类岩石具有相似的微量和稀土元素配分曲线,结合两者的矿物组合也存在相似性,提出花土沟镁铝麻粒岩的原岩可能是与泥质片麻岩类似的泥质沉积岩。从低角闪岩相变泥质岩到含浅色体的泥质片麻岩,再到镁铝麻粒岩,其全岩化学成分向着贫铝、钙、钾、钠,富铁、镁的趋势变化。其中,高X_Mg值（0.51~0.69）是镁铝麻粒岩与其他泥质片麻岩（X_Mg=0.34~0.43）的最大差别。通过对变泥质岩的相平衡模拟和理论计算,发现部分熔融和熔体丢失能解释大部分的变化趋势,但基本不影响全岩X_Mg值;只有在进变质升温过程中丢失含石榴子石的熔体才能造成变泥质岩的镁铝麻粒岩化。此外,富石榴子石的泥质残留体相比附近的含浅色体泥质片麻岩,贫硅、钠、钾,富集铝、铁、镁、锰、钙,重稀土元素含量显著高于后者,上述地球化学特征对应石榴子石熔体的加入而后长英质熔体的丢失,支持野外观察到的熔体携带石榴子石迁移的现象。最后,对镁铝麻粒岩只呈透镜体产出的原因做出了推测,即熔体很难带着石榴子石完成长距离迁移,只有被长英质正片麻岩包围的泥质沉积物,其进变质加热阶段形成的熔体才能携带石榴子石完全迁出原岩,促成变泥质岩透镜体的镁铝麻粒岩化,目前仍需更多的相关研究来验证这一推测。在世界其他高温-超高温变质岩区,石榴子石熔体的迁出和泥质岩的镁铝麻粒岩化可能也不同程度有所保留和记录。     

麻粒岩相变质作用与花岗岩成因-Ⅰ:变质泥质岩/杂砂岩高温-超高温变质相平衡

麻粒岩相岩石作为洞察下地壳的窗口一直备受重视。二十世纪九十年代以来麻粒岩研究的一个重要进展是利用变质相平衡的定量研究方法模拟岩石中所发生的深熔变质反应、熔体成分变化、及熔体丢失对变质矿物组合的影响等。本文利用KASH、NKASH和KFMASH等简单体系的相平衡关系,做出P-T投影图、组分共生图解和基于固定全岩成分的P-T视剖面图解,并结合有关实验岩石学结果,讨论了高温和超高温条件下变质泥质岩和杂砂岩中的变质熔融反应、矿物组合、全岩成分与P-T条件之间的相互关系。多数变质泥质岩和杂砂岩中饱和流体固相线熔融反应可利用NKASH体系中有水流体参与的熔融反应模拟,在没有外来流体注入时,这些反应可形成3mol%熔体。在不同体系中白云母脱水熔融反应型式及其P-T条件不同,如在NKASH和KFMASH体系中模拟计算的白云母脱水熔融反应与相应的实验结果相似,分别控制了白云母分解熔融的温度下限和上限;白云母的分解温度会随着其中Fe、Mg和Ti含量的增加而升高,也随着共生斜长石中钙长石组分增加而升高,泥质岩中白云母脱水熔融可以形成~10mol%熔体。在KFMASH体系中黑云母脱水熔融反应表现为4条单变反应,其理论计算的温度比实验模拟的结果低一些。在NCKFMASH体系或实际岩石中黑云母脱水熔融反应为滑动反应,如NCKFMASH体系中黑云母从其开始熔融到最后消失在泥质岩中可跨越~100℃,在杂砂岩中可跨越30~50℃。黑云母的稳定温度随着镁值升高而升高,其稳定上限受钛影响更大,黑云母脱水熔融可以形成超过30mol%~40mol%熔体。KFMASH体系中的相平衡模拟表明以出现斜方辉石+夕线石和假蓝宝石为特征的超高温组合易于出现于富镁泥质岩中,而对正常成分泥质岩在达到1000℃的超高温条件下,主要出现石榴石+夕线石(即夕线榴),该组合在更高温度反应形成假蓝宝石+尖晶石。利用饱和水固相线反应和白云母与黑云母分解反应可以更好地限定不同的变质相。如中压和低压条件下低角闪岩相和高角闪岩相的界限可利用NKASH体系中有水流体和白云母参与的熔融反应和亚固相线条件下的白云母分解反应限定;实验确定的泥质岩中黑云母开始熔融与消失的反应可分别用于限定高角闪岩相与(正常)麻粒岩相的界限,以及(正常)麻粒岩相和超高温麻粒岩相的界限。因此,从矿物组合角度,正常麻粒岩相可限定在黑云母开始熔融到完全消失的温度范围,超高温麻粒岩相可限定在黑云母消失(有石英存在)之后的温度范围。     

苏鲁皖新生代玄武岩中巨晶组合的稀土元素特征

我国东部苏鲁皖地区新生代碱性玄武岩中,除了含有大量地幔橄榄岩类捕虏体以外,尚含有一定数量的石榴石、普通辉石和歪长石巨晶。这些巨晶是在地幔不同深度上从玄武岩中晶出的。巨晶组合的分离结晶作用对熔体稀土元素含量有很大影响。赋存巨晶的碱性玄武岩所具有的LREE富集、HREE亏损的稀土元素分配型式是由地幔橄榄岩类部分熔融程度、石榴石巨晶和普通辉石巨晶的早期高压熔离和玄武岩的结晶分异作用等综合因素造成的。     

Flat rare earth element patterns as an indicator of cumulate processes in the Lesser Qinling carbonatites, China

The Lesser Qinling carbonatite dykes are mainly composed of calcites. They are characterized by unusually high heavy rare earth element concentrations (HREE; e.g. Yb > 30 ppm) and flat to weakly light rare earth element (LREE) enriched chondrite-normalized patterns (La/Yb_n = 1.0–5.5), which is in marked contrast with all other published carbonatite data. The trace element contents of calcite crystals were measured in situ by laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICPMS). Some crystals show reduced LREE from core to rim, whereas their HREE compositions are relatively constant. The total REE contents and chondrite-normalized REE patterns from the cores of carbonate crystals are similar to those of the whole rock. The carbon and oxygen isotopic compositions of calcites fall within the range of primary, mantle-derived carbonatites. The initial Sr isotopic compositions (0.70480–0.70557) of calcites are consistent with an EM1 source or mixing between HIMU and EM1 mantle sources. However these sources cannot produce carbonatite parental magmas with a flat or slightly LREE enrichment pattern by low degrees of partial melting. Analyses of carbonates from other carbonatites show that carbonates have nearly flat REE pattern if they crystallize from a LREE enriched carbonatite melt. This implies that when carbonates crystallize from a carbonatite melt the calcite/melt partition coefficients (D) for HREE are much greater than the D for the LREE. The nearly flat REE patterns of the Lesser Qinling carbonatites can be explained if they are carbonate cumulates that contain little trapped carbonatite melt. Strong enrichment of HREE in the carbonatites may require their derivation by small degrees of melting from a garnet-poor source.     

The lanthanide tetrad effect and its correlation with K/Rb,Eu/Eu1, Sr/Eu,Y/Ho,and Zr/Hf of evolving peraluminous granite suites

Lanthanide tetrad effects are often observed in REE patterns of more highly evolved Variscan peraluminous granites of mid-eastern Germany (Central Erzgebirge, Western Erzgebirge, Fichtelgebirge, and Northern Oberpfalz). The degree of the tetrad effect (TE_1,3) is estimated and plotted vs. K/Rb, Sr/Eu, Eu/Eu1, Y/Ho, and Zr/Hf. The diagrams reveal that the tetrad effect develops parallel to granite evolution, and significant tetrad effects are strictly confined to highly differentiated samples. Mineral fractionation as a cause for the tetrad effect is not supported by a calculated Rayleigh fractionation, which also could not explain the fractionation trends of Sr/Eu and Eu/Eu1. The strong decrease of Eu concentrations in highly evolved rocks suggests that Eu fractionates between the residual melt and a coexisting aqueous high-temperature fluid. Mineral fractionation as a reason for the tetrad effect is even more unlikely as REE patterns of accessory minerals display similar tetrad effects as the respective host rocks. The accessory minerals inherit the REE signature of the melt and do not contribute to the bulk-rock tetrad effect via mineral fractionation. These results point in summary to significant changes of element fractionation behavior in highly evolved granitic melts: ionic radius and charge, which commonly control the element distribution between mineral and melt, are no longer the exclusive control. The tetrad effect and the highly fractionated trace element ratios of Y/Ho and Zr/Hf indicate a trace element behavior that is similar to that in aqueous systems in which chemical complexation is of significant influence. This distinct trace element behavior and the common features of magmatic-hydrothermal alteration suggest the increasing importance of an aqueous-like fluid system during the final stages of granite crystallization. The positive correlation of TE_1,3 with bulk-rock fluorine contents hints at the importance of REE fluorine complexation in generating the tetrad effect. As the evolution of a REE pattern with tetrad effect (M-type) implies the removal of a respective mirroring REE pattern (W-type), the tetrad effect identifies open system conditions during granite crystallization.     

Tetrad effects in the rare earth element patterns of granitoid rocks as an indicator of fluoride-silicate liquid immiscibility in magmatic systems

This paper focuses on reasons for the appearance of tetrad effects in chondrite-normalized REE distribution patterns of granitoids (Li-F granites, peralklaine granites, ongonites, fluorine-rich rhyolites, and granitic pegmatites). The analysis of published data showed that the alteration of such rocks by high- and/or low-temperature metasomatic processes does not result in most cases in the appearance or enhancement of M-type tetrad effects in REE patterns. These processes are accompanied by the removal or addition of lanthanides, a W-type sag appears between Gd and Ho, and negative or positive Ce anomalies develop sometimes in REE patterns. The formation conditions of peculiar rocks enriched in Ca and F from the Ary Bulak ongonite massif (eastern Transbaikalia) and the character of REE distribution in these rocks and melt inclusion glasses were discussed. Based on the obtained data and the analysis of numerous publications, it was concluded that REE tetrad effects in rare-metal granitoids are caused by fluoride-silicate liquid immiscibility and extensive melt differentiation in the accumulation chambers of fluorine-rich magmas. A considerable increase in fluorine content in a homogeneous granitoid melt can cause its heterogenization (liquation) and formation of fluoride melts of various compositions. The redistribution of lanthanides between the immiscible liquid phases of granitoid magma will result in the formation of M-type tetrad effects in the silicate melts, because the REE patterns of fluoride melts exhibit pronounced W-type tetrad effects. The maximum M-type tetrad effect between La and Nd, which is observed in many rare-metal granitoids, is related to the character of REE partitioning between fluoride and silicate melts and F- and Cl-rich magmatic fluids. The low non-chondritic Y/Ho ratio (<15) of many rare-metal granitoids may be indicative of a contribution of fluoride melts to the differentiation of F-rich silicic magmas, from which these rocks were formed. The influence of high-temperature F-Cl-bearing fluids on melts and/or granitoid rocks results in an increase in Y/Ho ratio owing to the elevated solubility of Ho in such fluids.     

Case studies on the origin of basalt

The simplified model of basalt genesis described in Part I of this series, equilibrium partial melting followed by Rayleigh-type fractional crystallization, is applied to a stratigraphically controlled sequence of basalt flows from Kohala volcano. Major-element compositions were determined for 52 samples and show a time-stratigraphic progression from tholeiites through transitional basalts to alkali basalts. Twenty-six of these samples were analyzed by isotope dilution for K, Rb, Cs, Sr, Ba and the REE, 13 for⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr, and 19 for Co, Cr, Ni and V by atomic absorption. After a simple, first-order correction for the effects of fractional crystallization (involving mostly olivine and aluminous clinopyroxene), the major element concentrations cluster tightly, and the incompatible trace elements show monotonic increases in concentration as a function of stratigraphic height. The process identification plot shows that all the (fractionation corrected) melt compositions can be explained by equilibrium partial melting of compositionally identical batches of source material. The REE and Sr are fractionated because of the presence of residual clinopyroxene. Garnet may also be present but in much smaller amounts. In this respect our results differ significantly from those of Leeman et al. (1980). The calculated chondrite-normalized REE patterns of the source are nearly flat to slightly convex upward. Therefore there is no need to invoke special mechanisms, such as metasomatic REE preenrichment of the source, in order to explain the petrogenesis of the suite of lavas. Specifically, Ce concentrations ranging from 20 to 250 times chondritic are all explained by the same calculated source pattern having a chondrite-normalized ratio of Ce/Sm=0.9±0.2. However, the normalized ratio Ce/Ba?2 shows that the source is not simply primitive mantle.     

Garnet in silicic liquids and its possible use as a P-T indicator

Melting experiments on a model pelitic composition yield low-spessartine garnet as an important residual phase at pressures above 7 kb. The K _D values for distribution of iron and magnesium between coexisting garnet and liquid in the pelitic composition are mainly sensitive to temperature, but also have a small pressure dependence. At temperatures above 950 ° C garnet has a higher value than coexisting liquid, but below 950 ° C the garnet value is lower than that of the coexisting liquid. Thus at temperatures below 950 ° C silicic magmas may fractionate garnet and produce more magnesian derivative liquids.Reconnaissance experiments with added MnO content in the model pelite demonstrate that spessartine-rich garnets are stable in silicic liquids to pressures as low as 3 kb. The MnO and CaO contents of the experimentally crystallized garnets show an antipathetic relation. Also, the grossular content of near-liquidus garnets crystallizing from a range of compositions increases with increasing pressure. The spessartine and grossular contents of most natural garnets in eastern Australian granitic rocks suggest that these garnets formed at pressures greater than 5 kb. Increased spessartine content allows crystallization of garnet in equilibrium with a silicic magma well within the pressure limit of stability of cordierite, provided the garnet contains 10 mol.% spessartine. Thus the depth range over which garnet and cordierite may coexist in a silicic melt is broadened, subject to the availability of MnO. The effect of increased Mn content on the low-pressure stability limit of garnet may also explain the lack of resorption of some garnets in granitic magmas, as these magmas rise to shallower levels. These euhedral garnets characteristically show zoning from an Mn-poor core (typically <4 % MnO) to an Mn-richer rim (typically >4 % MnO) and may reflect continued growth of the garnet in a low pressure regime, stabilized by Mn concentrated in the residual liquid fractions of the crystallizing magma.     

Constraints on clinopyroxene/melt partitioning of REE, Rb, Sr, Ti, Cr, Zr, and Nb during mantle melting: First insights from direct peridotite melting experiments at 1.0 GPa

Earlier piston-cylinder experiments in our laboratory produced a collection of mantle melting run products at 1.0 GPa that have now been analyzed by ion probe for selected REE, Ti, Cr, Rb, Sr, Y, Zr, and Nb. Natural starting materials were used and experiments were run in graphite-lined Pt capsules with the melt separated from the residual minerals into a layer of vitreous carbon spheres (VCS) to circumvent quench modification. The glass phase in 18 run products, representing melt percentages of ∼2-20 wt%, yielded excellent data that were inverted to yield the first estimates ever of clinopyroxene/melt distribution coefficients, Ds, derived from direct peridotite partial melting experiments. Uncertainties were estimated with a Monte Carlo method.For the REE and Y, these Ds were then compared to Ds calculated with the widely-used model of Wood and Blundy (1997) and the two sets overlap at the ±2σ level in 123 of 128 cases (∼96%). This indicates to us that: 1) the experiments analyzed here are well equilibrated with respect to major and trace element distributions, thus supporting the efficacy of the VCS technique and its variation involving diamond (e.g., Baker and Stolper, “Determining the composition of high-pressure mantle melts using diamond aggregates” [1994], Geochim. Cosmochim. Acta58, 2811-2827); 2) the model of Wood and Blundy (1997), calibrated largely on the basis of large melt fraction, inverse- or sandwich-type experiments, describes REE and Y partitioning during peridotite melting well, even very near the solidus; and it suggests that the cpx/melt Ds derived here for other elements, not modeled by the Wood and Blundy formulation, are probably also correct for peridotite melting to within their ±2σ uncertainties. D^sp/liq and D^cpx/liq values for Cr calculated directly from electron microprobe data decrease by about a factor of five with increasing temperature and melt percentage.The degree to which our experiments appear to have equilibrated seems at odds with recent measurements of the diffusivities of REE in diopside which suggest that relatively small percentages of our starting mineral grains should have equilibrated diffusively. Instead, we suggest that equilibration occurs much more rapidly through the processes of recrystallization and grain coarsening, accomplished through dissolution and reprecipitation. This suggestion is supported by the observation that our final grain sizes are typically 5-10 times larger than the ∼10 μm starting sizes, indicating that substantial mass transfer occurred in our experiments, probably mediated by the melt phase in which diffusion is faster.     

大兴安岭中部柴河地区钾长花岗岩的成因及构造背景:岩石地球化学、锆石U-Pb同位素年代学的制约

Neoarchean crust-mantle interactions in the Yishui Terrane,south-eastern margin of the North China Craton: Constraints from geochemistry and zircon U-Pb-Hf isotopes of metavolcanic rocks and high-K granitoids

The Neoarchean Yishui Terrane (YST) is situated in the east of Western Shandong Province (WSP), south-eastern margin of the North China Craton (NCC). The metavolcanic rocks of the YST are fine-grained hornblende plagioclase gneisses (Group #1) and fine-grained amphibolites (Group #2) in the Yangzhuangzhen area and fine- to medium-grained amphibolites (Group #3) in the Leigushan area. The high-K granitoids associated with Groups #1 and 2 are dominated by fine- to medium-grained monzogranitic gneisses. Zircon LA-ICP-MS U-Pb dating reveals that the magmatic precursors of Groups #1 and #2 were formed at 2641 Ma and the magmatic precursors of concomitant monzogranitic gneisses were emplaced from 2615 to 2575 Ma, whereas Group #3 represents a later 2500 Ma volcanic eruption, and all these metamorphic volcanic rocks and monzogranitic gneisses were subjected to subsequent 2470–2460 Ma metamorphism.The metamorphic volcanic rock samples in Group #1 exhibit the chemical compositions of calc-alkaline andesites, showing fractionated chondrite-normalized REE patterns ((La/Yb)_N = 10.48–19.30) and negative Nb, Ta and Ti anomalies ((Nb/La)_PM = 0.13–0.22), which are akin to those of typical high-Mg andesites (HMAs) in the subduction-related settings. The magmatic precursors of the Group #1 samples were derived from partial melting of a fluid- or melt-metasomatized depleted mantle wedge at deep levels in the upper mantle. Samples in Group #2 show calc-alkaline chemical compositions with less fractionated chondrite-normalized REE patterns ((La/Yb)_N = 2.24–3.34) and negative Nb, Ta and Ti anomalies ((Nb/La)_PM = 0.47–0.76), which are consistent with those of the volcanic rocks in the Aleutian island arc. The magmatic precursors of Group #2 were generated by partial melting of a fluid-metasomatized depleted mantle wedge at shallow levels in the upper mantle. The monzogranitic gneisses exhibit high SiO₂ and K₂O contents with high-K calc-alkaline affinities and peraluminous characteristics. Based on their distinct HREE contents and chondrite-normalized REE patterns, these granitoid samples are subdivided into low-Yb monzogranitic gneisses (LYMGs) and high-Yb monzogranitic gneisses (HYMGs). The LYMG magma was derived from partial melting of a mixed source of juvenile two-mica pelites and minor basic-intermediate igneous rocks at lower crustal levels with pyroxene + amphibole + garnet as the main residual phases, and the HYMG magma was derived from partial melting of multi-sourced juvenile two-mica pelites at middle to lower crustal levels with pyroxene + amphibole and subordinate plagioclase and garnet as the main residual phases. In addition, Group #3 resembles tholeiitic back-arc basalts in the Okinawa Trough and displays flat chondrite-normalized REE patterns ((La/Yb)_N = 1.22–2.08) and slightly negative Nb and Ta anomalies ((Nb/La)_PM = 0.35–0.59). This group was most likely derived from partial melting of a depleted mantle source that had been modified by the addition of subducted slab-derived fluids at shallow levels in the upper mantle. These metavolcanic rocks and concomitant high-K granitoids record important Neoarchean crust-mantle interactions involving the first modification and partial melting of the lithospheric mantle induced by oceanic crust subduction; then, upwelling and underplating of mantle-derived magmas triggered partial melting of the middle to lower crust and mixing between crust- and mantle-derived magmas. These processes imply that Neoarchean crust-mantle interaction played a crucial role in the evolution of the southeastern margin of the NCC.Available whole-rock Sm-Nd and zircon Lu-Hf isotopic data from metamorphic volcanic rocks and plutonic granitoids from this study and previous studies reveal that YST experienced three crucial juvenile crustal growth events from ~2.78–2.69 Ga, ~2.64–2.56 Ga and ~2.54–2.50 Ga.
