浙江建德新生代玄武岩源区特征及其成因

中国东南部浙江境内分布有大量新生代板内玄武岩，这些玄武岩的分布受到三条北东—南西向的断裂控制，将浙江玄武岩分为西部、中部、东部三个区域。其中，出露于浙江西部江山-绍兴断裂带的建德玄武岩是浙江境内最古老的新生代玄武岩（约40 Ma）。为进一步认识浙江境内新生代岩浆作用的本质，测定了建德玄武岩的元素组成和Sr、Nd、Hf、Pb同位素组成，并在与浙江境内其它新生代玄武岩对比的基础上，探讨它们之间的成因联系。建德玄武岩为碧玄岩，与浙江西部其它新生代玄武岩一样，碱性程度明显高于浙江中部和东部的新生代玄武岩（以弱碱性的碱性橄榄玄武岩和拉斑玄武岩为主）。这些玄武岩具有较低的SiO₂ (41.3~42.3 wt%）和Al₂O₃（9.70~12.6 wt%）含量，较高的MgO（8.90~15.6 wt%）、CaO（8.92~12.1 wt%）、TiO₂（2.78~3.18 wt%）和Fe₂O₃^T（14.1~16.2 wt%）含量以及较高的Ca/Al（1.02~1.16）比值。不相容微量元素组成上与火成碳酸岩具有亲缘性，即蛛网图上表现为明显的K、Zr、Hf、Ti的负异常（Hf/Hf*=0.74~0.77, Ti/Ti*=0.70~0.74），同时具有高的Zr/Hf比值（48.5~50.1），表明其地幔源区含有碳酸盐组分。建德玄武岩具有亏损的Sr-Nd-Hf同位素组成（⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr=0.7032~0.7034, εNd=5.85~5.95, εHf=7.78~8.56）和较高的²⁰⁶Pb/²⁰⁴Pb（18.491~18.554）、²⁰⁷Pb/²⁰⁴Pb（15.488~15.518）和²⁰⁸Pb/²⁰⁴Pb（38.387~38.523）比值。相比浙江中部和东部玄武岩，浙江西部玄武岩及建德玄武岩具有更高的碱含量、不相容微量元素含量、La/Yb比值和更明显的K、Zr、Hf、Ti负异常，表明浙江西部玄武岩是碳酸盐化地幔低程度熔融的产物。浙江新生代玄武岩的Ti/Ti*与Ba/Th、K/La比值之间较好的正相关性表明其源区存在两端元混合的特征。其中，以浙江西部玄武岩（包括建德玄武岩）为代表的地幔端元是由含碳酸盐的再循环洋壳熔融产生的碳酸盐熔体与亏损地幔反应形成的碳酸盐化地幔，以较低的Ba/Th、K/La和Ti/Ti*比值为特征。以浙江东部玄武岩为代表的地幔端元具有和碳酸盐化地幔端元互补的、较高的Ba/Th、K/La和Ti/Ti*比值，代表熔融残余的再循环洋壳。因此，浙江新生代玄武岩的地幔源区是不均一的，这种不均一性主要是由具有成因联系的两种端元组分所控制。     

峨眉山二滩玄武岩地球化学特征

峨眉山大火成岩省二滩地区玄武岩w(S iO2)/%=40.5~59.65;普遍高碱,w(K2O N a2O)=2.64%~7.67%。w(T iO2)=2.10%~6.53%,T i/Y>500,该区玄武岩属于高钛(HT)型玄武岩;其M g#=58~84,明显高于高于宾川高钛玄武岩(31~53),说明岩浆演化程度明显低于宾川高钛玄武岩浆。岩石样品中Sr显示明显负异常,暗示了二滩玄武岩经历了广泛的斜长石结晶分离;而Eu不显异常,则反映了玄武岩岩浆中有高Eu3 /Eu2 比值的存在,其环境为氧化环境。在二滩玄武岩和宾川高钛玄武岩中,N i,Z r,T iO2和M g#均显示了明显差异,说明二滩玄武岩具有独立的地球化学特征。二滩玄武岩不相容元素(R b,B a,Th,U,N b,T a,L a,C e等)配分曲线与O IB相似,及其T a/Y b vs Th/Y b双变量图解也显示出了富集地幔特征,这些特征反映了峨眉山二滩玄武岩源区为富集地幔源,玄武岩岩浆可能为地幔柱物质。此外,B a/Th,Z r/N b,L a/N b,B a/N b等比值介于EM I O IB和EM II O IB之间,以及C e/Pb比值也说明:二滩玄武岩缺少H IMU O IB端元组分,是EM I O IB和EM II O IB两端元的混合产物。     

峨眉山二滩高钛玄武岩Zr/Hf分异的指示意义

对峨眉山二滩高钛玄武岩高场强元素的研究表明,Zr/Hf比值出现了明显分异,可分为高Zr/Hf组和低Zr/Hf组两组玄武岩。Zr/Hf比值的分异与岩浆结晶分异作用无关,而是由部分熔融和地幔源区的不同所导致,暗示高Zr/Hf组和低Zr/Hf组玄武岩分别具有不同的部分熔融条件和不同的地幔物质组分。     

塔里木西南缘棋盘河乡玄武岩锆石U-Pb年代学和地球化学研究

通过对塔西南棋盘河乡尤勒巴斯地区玄武岩进行了LA-ICP-MS 锆石 U-Pb同位素研究。获得锆石²⁰⁶ Pb/²³⁸ U同位素年龄为298.3±2.8 Ma(MSWD=2.6), 代表玄武岩的结晶年龄。本次研究的玄武岩具有高的Ti、Nb: Ti/Y为513.86~577.35、Nb含量为28×10^-6~35.7×10^-6、La/Nb为5.06~6.25以及低的Zr/Nb比值(10~10.86), 表明该玄武岩的形成与富集岩石圈地幔有关。而相对低的Nb/U(近30)和Ce/Pb(近15)比值, 指示研究区玄武岩来自大陆岩石圈或受一定程度的地壳混染。尤勒巴斯地区玄武岩具有高TiO₂和P₂O₅, 富集轻稀土和Rb、Ba, 指示具有地幔柱的地球化学成分特征。基于塔里木地区大规模的火山岩喷发以及富集不相容元素的地球化学特征和岩相古地理特征支持, 塔西南玄武岩可能是由地幔柱火山作用, 或由于地幔柱的供热和上升导致富集的岩石圈地幔部分熔融而形成。     

峨眉山高钛玄武岩物源的不均一性研究

对二滩地区高钛玄武岩物源研究表明,该区岩石可分为高钛-1和高钛-2两种岩石类型。其反映了二滩高钛玄武岩浆物源的不均一性,这种不均一性主要表现在:1)微量元素Zr,Sr含量明显不同;2)部分熔融程度和熔融压力不同;3)岩浆的结晶分异不同;4)Pb同位素比值不同。这可能是深源地幔柱(来自核-幔边界或下地幔)在上升过程中携带的不同物质发生部分熔融所致。

北祁连九个泉蛇绿岩中的玄武岩的MORB，根据其地质产状和地球化学特征又可以分为两部分，剖面下部的玄武岩为N－MORB，上部的玄武岩主要为E－MORB。玄武岩多数具有Nb负异常，从下向上，九个朱武岩的Th,Nb,LREE,Zr等含量及（La/Yb)N,(La/Sm)N,Ce/Zr,Zr/Y,Th/.La,Th/Yb比值逐渐增加，并伴随着Y，Yb,Lu,Sc含量，Zr/Nb和La/Nb比值以及εEd(t)的逐渐减小，不相容元素比值及εNd(t)之间具有很好的相关性，上述特征反映不均一地幔部分熔融过程中N－MORB源区和富集地幔之间的混合作用，微量元素和Nd同位素地球化学特征表明九个泉蛇绿岩形成于弧后盆地中的海山环境，玄武岩的化学成分在垂向上的变化记录了海山生长并逐渐远离扩张脊的动态的地质过程，海山可能是形成蛇绿岩的一种重要环境。     

沙茨基海隆(Shatsky Rise)白垩纪玄武岩的地球化学特征及其地幔柱-洋中脊相互作用过程

沙茨基海隆(Shatsky Rise)是白垩纪早期形成的西北太平洋大火成岩省,其成因和演化过程目前仍存在较大争议。本次研究对沙茨基海隆白垩纪玄武岩进行了全岩主量、微量元素、Sr-Nd-Pb同位素的分析。沙茨基海隆玄武岩主要属于拉斑玄武岩,具有较亏损的大离子亲石元素和轻稀土元素以及较富集的重稀土元素的特征,没有明显的Eu异常(δEu=0.99～1.29),与正常洋中脊玄武岩(N-MORB)的微量元素配分模式较为相似。然而该系列玄武岩却具有相对较富集的初始⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr(0.702986～0.703991)和¹⁴³Nd/¹⁴⁴Nd(0.513034～0.513194)同位素比值、较富集的²⁰⁷Pb/²⁰⁴Pb(15.439～15.508)和²⁰⁸Pb/²⁰⁴Pb(37.853～38.488)同位素比值,与富集的洋岛玄武岩(OIB)和岛弧火山岩的同位素成分较为相似,且源区混入高U/Pb比值(HIMU型)的富集地幔成...

滇西北峨眉山玄武岩与冈达概组下段玄武岩 对比研究

研究区峨眉山玄武岩分布于扬子地块西缘,冈达概组分布于其邻区的中咱微陆块。峨眉山玄武岩与冈达概组下段玄武岩均具有富碱、高钛特征,大部分属于碱性玄武岩系列,峨眉山玄武岩Mg#变化范围为0.31~0.70,属于适度演化过的岩浆,冈达概组下段玄武岩Mg#=0.34~0.43。总体上,冈达概组下段玄武岩比峨眉山玄武岩更富Ti,高FeO*,低MgO,低SiO2。两组玄武岩均有轻稀土强烈富集的特征,富集大离子亲石元素和高场强元素,但部分具有Sr、Zr负异常,均属板内玄武岩,岩浆来源于富集地幔,在地幔柱作用下产生。峨眉山玄武岩Rb、Ba有明显的波动,可能是受到源区混染作用影响,其微量元素比值表现出EM1-OIB与EM2-OIB的混合特征,起源于石榴石二辉橄榄岩,熔融程度为4%~7%。冈达概组下段玄武岩元素比值较稳定,与EM1-OIB具有很大的相似性,也起源于石榴石稳定区,其形成深度比峨眉山玄武岩深,熔融程度较低,为2%~5%,可能是产生于地幔柱边缘。中咱微陆块、扬子地台西缘的二叠系玄武岩源区物质均受峨眉山地幔柱影响,具有很大的亲源性,峨眉山地幔柱的活动为板块的裂解提供了动力。     

利用地球化学方法判别大陆玄武岩和岛弧玄武岩

大陆地壳或岩石圈的混染作用可以给出似消减带信号,并导致将受到混染的大陆玄武岩误判为岛弧玄武岩。没有受到混染的软流圈(或地幔柱)源大陆玄武质岩石通常是以(Th/Nb)N<1、Nb/La≥1、低87Sr/86Sr(t)比值、高εNd(t)值及La/Nb和La/Ba比值与洋岛玄武岩相似并以具有缺乏Nb、Ta、Ti负异常的“隆起”状多元素地幔标准化分配型式为特征。当在所研究的火山岩系中发现有未受到混染的软流圈(或地幔柱)源玄武质岩石存在,基本上就可以排除它们有属于岛弧或活动大陆边缘火山岩系的可能。对于那些具有消减带信号的基性熔岩,可以根据Zr含量和Zr/Y比值,或利用Zr/Y-Zr图解,判断它们是否真正是岛弧或活动大陆边缘玄武岩。     

The nature of the sub-continental mantle: constraints from the major-element composition of continental flood basalts

Many continental flood basalts (CFB) have isotope and trace-element signatures that differ from those of oceanic basalts and much interest concerns the extent to which these reflect differences in their upper mantle source regions. A review of selected data sets from the Mesozoic and Tertiary CFB confirms significant differences in their major- and trace-element compositions compared with those of basalts erupted through oceanic lithosphere. In general, those CFB suites characterised by low Nb/La, high (⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr)_i and low εNd_i tend to exhibit relatively low TiO₂, CaO/Al₂O₃, Na₂O and/or Fe₂O₃, and relatively high SiO₂. In contrast, those which have high Nb/La, low (⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr)_i and high εNd_i ratios, like the upper units in the Deccan Traps, have major- and trace-element compositions similar to oceanic basalts. It would appear that those CFB that have distinctive isotope and trace-element ratios also exhibit distinctive major-element contents, suggesting that major and trace elements have not been decoupled significantly during magma generation and differentiation.

When compared (at 8% MgO) with oceanic basalt trends, the displacement of many CFB to lower Na₂O, Fe₂O₃^*, TiO₂ and CaO/Al₂O₃, but higher SiO₂, at similar Mg#, is not readily explicable by crustal contamination. Rather, it reflects source composition and/or the effects of the melting processes. The model compositions of melts produced by decompression of mantle plumes beneath continental lithosphere have relatively low SiO₂ and high Fe₂O₃^*. In contrast, the available experimental data indicate that partial melts of peridotite have low TiO₂, Na₂O and Fe₂O₃^*CaO/Al₂O₃, if the peridotite has been previously depleted by melt extraction. Moreover, melting of hydrated, depleted peridotite yields SiO₂-rich, Fe₂O₃- and CaO-poor melts. Since anhydrous, depleted peridotite has a high-temperature solidus, it is argued that the source of these CFB was variably melt depleted and hydrated mantle, inferred to be within the lithosphere. Isotope data suggest these source regions were often old and relatively enriched in incompatible trace elements, and it is envisaged that H₂O±CO₂ were added at the same time as the incompatible elements. An implication is that a significant proportion of the new continental crust generated since the Permian reflected multistage processes involving mobilization of continental mantle lithosphere that was enriched in minor and trace elements during the Proterozoic.     

Erosion of lithospheric mantle beneath the East African Rift system: geochemical evidence from the Kivu volcanic province

This study presents new major and trace element and Sr–Nd isotopic results for a suite of Miocene–Recent mafic lavas from the Kivu volcanic province in the western branch of the East African Rift. These lavas exhibit a very wide range in chemical and isotopic characteristics, due to a lithospheric mantle source region that is heterogeneous on a small scale, probably <1 km. The chemical and isotopic variations are mostly geographically controlled: lavas from Tshibinda volcano, which lies on a rift border fault on the northwestern margin of the province, have higher values of ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr, (La/Sm)_n, Ba/Nb, and Zr/Hf than the majority of Kivu (Bukavu) samples. The range of ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr at Tshibinda (0.70511–0.70514) overlaps some compositions found in the neighboring Virunga province, while Bukavu group lavas include the lowest ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr (0.70314) and highest _Nd (+7.6) yet measured in western rift lavas. The Tshibinda compositions trend towards a convergence for Sr–Nd–Pb isotopic values among western rift lavas. Among Kivu lavas, variations in ¹⁴³Nd/¹⁴⁴Nd correlate with those for certain incompatible trace element ratios (e.g., Th/Nb, Zr/Hf, La/Nb, Ba/Rb), with Tshibinda samples defining one compositional extreme. There are covariations of isotopic and trace element ratios in mafic lavas of the East African Rift system that vary systematically with geographic location. The lavas represent a magmatic sampling of variations in the underlying continental lithospheric mantle, and it appears that a common lithospheric mantle (CLM) source is present beneath much of the East African Rift system. This source contains minor amphibole and phlogopite, probably due to widespread metasomatic events between 500 and 1000 Ma. Lava suites which do not show a strong component of the CLM source, and for which the chemical constraints also suggest the shallowest magma formation depths, are the Bukavu group lavas from Kivu and basanites from Huri Hills, Kenya. The inferred extent of lithospheric erosion therefore appears to be significant only beneath these two areas, which is generally consistent with lithospheric thickness variations estimated from gravity and seismic studies.     

Rifting-related volcanism in an oceanic post-collisional setting: the Tabar–Lihir–Tanga–Feni (TLTF) island chain, Papua New Guinea

The Tabar–Lihir–Tanga–Feni (TLTF) volcanic island chain occurs in a zone of lithospheric extension superimposed on a post-collisonal tectonic setting along the Pacific and Indo-Australian plates northeast of Papua New Guinea. We present geochemical and Sr, Nd, and Pb isotope data for volcanic rocks from these islands and three recently discovered seamounts located at Lihir island. Major element data document an alkalic affinity of the sample suite and trachybasalts as the predominant rock type. Negative Nb-anomalies in extended trace element patterns, enrichment of the light rare earth elements, and Ce/Pb ratios of about 4 are typical of the values in calc alkaline island arc volcanics and support an origin from subduction-modified mantle. ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr ratios of 0.7037 to 0.7044 and _Nd values of +5.6 to +6.8 indicate that the upper mantle evolved with a time-integrated depletion in LREE, however, not as severe as that recorded in basalts from the East Pacific Rise. Variable ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr ratios at less variable ¹⁴³Nd/¹⁴⁴Nd ratios suggest that ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr ratios of the melts were modified by secondary processes, such as assimilation of seawater Sr from crustal rocks. The Pb isotope ratios are uniform, moderately radiogenic (²⁰⁶Pb/²⁰⁴Pb ca. 18.7 to 18.8), and similar to those reported for the active Mariana arc. Elevated ²⁰⁷Pb/²⁰⁴Pb ratios relative to Pacific MORB suggest melting of small amounts of subducted sediments (ca. 1–2 wt.%). An important control of subducted sediment on the chemistry of the melts can also be inferred from the ratios of highly incompatible trace elements (e.g., Th, U, Pb, La, and Nb). Additional mantle enrichment by subduction derived fluids is reflected in high values of highly incompatible trace element ratios between fluid mobile (e.g., Ba) and fluid immobile elements (e.g., Th, Nb). The results of this study document that the chemical composition of igneous rocks from post-collisional tectonic settings are strongly influenced by previous plate tectonics. This conclusion implies that the information conveyed by tectonic discrimination diagrams for these rocks must be interpreted with care.     

Geochemistry of post-collisional mafic lavas from the North Anatolian Fault zone, Northwestern Turkey

Extensive magmatic activity developed at the northwestern part of the Anatolian block and produced basaltic lavas that are situated along and between the two segments of the North Anatolian Fault zone. This region is a composite tectonic unit formed by collision of continental fragments after consumption of Neotethyan ocean floor during the late Cretaceous. Northwestern Anatolian basalts and evolved lavas exhibit both tholeiitic and calc-alkaline characteristics. Mafic lavas are moderately enriched in LILE (except depleted part of Yuvacık and İznik samples) and depleted in HFSE (but not Zr, Hf) relative to primitive mantle values, suggesting derivation from a MORB-like mantle source that is unexpected in this subduction environment. Sr and Nd isotopes are close to the mantle array and vary beyond analytical error (⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr 0.70404–0.70546, ¹⁴³Nd/¹⁴⁴Nd 0.51270–0.51289). These geochemical features may result from two possible processes: (1) melting of a MORB-like mantle source that was modified by subduction-released fluids and melts or (2) modification of mafic liquids derived from a dominantly MORB-like source by crustal or lithospheric mantle material. Geochemical characteristics of the lavas (e.g., Ba/Rb, Rb/Sr, Ba/Zr, ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr, Sr/P) vary systematically along the fault zone from east to west, consistent with a decrease in the degree of melting from east to west or a change in the nature of the source composition itself. Thus, the difference in incompatible elements and Sr–Nd isotopic ratios seems to result from small-scale mantle heterogeneity in a post-collisional tectonic environment.     

Geochemistry of Pliocene/Pleistocene basalts along the Central Anatolian Fault Zone (CAFZ), Turkey

Pliocene–Pleistocene volcanism accompanied strike-slip-related transtensional deformation along the Kızılırmak fault segment of the Central Anatolian fault zone (CAFZ) in the west of Şarkışla (Sivas–central Turkey). These volcanic rocks are represented by alkali olivine basalts. They can be divided into four different sub-groups on the basis of their Zr, Nb, TiO₂ contents. A primitive mantle-normalized incompatible trace element diagram for four subgroups shows close similarity to typical OIB pattern. Some of the incompatible trace element ratios (Ce/Y, Zr/Nb, La/Ba, La/Nb) are also akin to OIB values. Highly fractionated REE patterns (La/Yb_N=24.7–9.2) with no Eu anomaly are the main features of the alkali basalts and are comparable to alkaline volcanism in continental rift zones. On the basis of Al₂O₃/TiO₂, Nb/Y, Zr/Y Zr/Nb ratios, the geochemical differences among four sub-groups can be explained by variable degrees of partial melting of compositionally similar mantle source. Th/Nb, Th/Y, Nb/Y ratios and the primitive mantle-normalized trace element diagram suggests significant amount of crustal involvement for most of the alkali olivine basalts erupted along the CAFZ. Rupture of the continental lithosphere by strike-slip-related transtensional deformation might have caused decompressional partial melting of the asthenospheric mantle and generating alkali olivine basalts in this region.

江西南部东坑盆地流纹岩地球化学特征及其地质意义

东坑盆地位于南岭构造带东段,其中的流纹岩为该带燕山期最早的“流纹岩—玄武岩”双峰式火山岩组合的酸性端元.主量元素、微量元素、Sr-Nd-Pb-O-Hf同位素研究表明,流纹岩富硅、钾,贫镁、钙、钛,属亚碱性弱过铝质岩石;稀土元素富集,轻重稀土分异和铕负异常明显,表现典型的M型稀土元素4分组效应,富集高场强元素Ta、Hf、Zr、Nb、Ce、Y和大离子亲石元素Rb、Th、U、Ba、Ga,亏损大离子亲石元素Sr,具有A型流纹岩和高Sr-Ba流纹岩的微量元素特征;(87Sr/86Sr)i较高,(206Pb/204Pb)i、(207Pb/204Pb)i和(208Pb/204Pb)i较低,εNd(t)、εHf(t)和δ18OV-SMOW较高,TDM2(Nd)和TDM2(Hf)较小.这些特征表明,东坑盆地流纹岩是拉张构造环境下源于新元古代亏损地幔和少量古老下地壳物质混合而成年轻下地壳部分熔融的产物,为早侏罗世早期南岭构造带东段处于拉张构造环境、地壳属正常厚度提供了岩石学证据.     

Geochemistry of Pliocene/Pleistocene basalts along the Central Anatolian Fault Zone (CAFZ), Turkey

Abstract

Pliocene-Pleistocene volcanism accompanied strike-slip-related transtensional deformation along the K?z?l?rmak fault segment of the Central Anatolian fault zone (CAFZ) in the west of ?ark??la (Sivas-central Turkey). These volcanic rocks are represented by alkali olivine basalts. They can be divided into four different sub-groups on the basis of their Zr, Nb, TiO₂ contents. A primitive mantle-normalized incompatible trace element diagram for four subgroups shows close similarity to typical OIB pattern. Some of the incompatible trace element ratios (Ce/Y, Zr/Nb, La/Ba, La/Nb) are also akin to OIB values. Highly fractionated REE patterns (La/Yb_N=24.7–9.2) with no Eu anomaly are the main features of the alkali basalts and are comparable to alkaline volcanism in continental rift zones. On the basis of Al₂O₃/TiO₂, Nb/Y, Zr/Y Zr/Nb ratios, the geochemical differences among four sub-groups can be explained by variable degrees of partial melting of compositionally similar mantle source. Th/Nb, Th/Y, Nb/Y ratios and the primitive mantle-normalized trace element diagram suggests significant amount of crustal involvement for most of the alkali olivine basalts erupted along the CAFZ. Rupture of the continental lithosphere by strike-slip-related transtensional deformation might have caused decompressional partial melting of the asthenospheric mantle and generating alkali olivine basalts in this region. © 2001 Éditions scientifiques et médicales Elsevier SAS.
