一种特殊类型的云英岩:湘南香花岭地区癞子岭云英岩成岩成矿特征

癞子岭岩体具有极好的垂向分带性,从下部到顶部包括了花岗岩、云英岩和伟晶岩,其中云英岩以其厚度巨大,云母类型属于铁锂云母,黄玉含量高,W-Sn-Nb-Ta含量高,而区别于其他地区云英岩。通过对癞子岭云英岩进行岩石学、地球化学和矿物学的研究,本文得出:癞子岭云英岩是高硅的强过铝质岩石类型,全碱含量低(3~4.3 wt%),富集挥发组分,全岩Zr/Hf(~8)和Nb/Ta(~1.7)比值低。造岩矿物铁锂云母中Nb(~74×10~(-6))、Ta(~66×10~(-6))、W(~23×10~(-6))、Sn(~75×10~(-6))等成矿元素含量较高。副矿物锆石自形且成分均一,含有HfO_2约10 wt%,Zr/Hf比值最低为5,与云英岩下部的癞子岭钠长花岗岩中的锆石成分有连续过渡的关系。这些特征与南岭地区高演化稀有金属花岗岩或伟晶岩相当,体现了相近的演化程度。癞子岭云英岩中有明显的Nb-Ta-W-Sn成矿作用发生,主要形成铌铁矿族矿物、锡石和黑钨矿,成分和结构均具有岩浆成因特征。花岗质熔体中含有大量挥发组分Li和F,结晶出黄玉和Li-F云母,F在稀有金属的成矿作用和云英岩的成岩过程中发挥了非常重要的作用,成矿作用发生在岩浆演化的晚期并伴随有流体作用。因此,云英岩可能是钠长花岗岩高度分异演化之后的特殊产物,这为研究花岗岩岩浆-热液体系成岩成矿过程提供了新的窗口。     

珠峰地区锂成矿作用:喜马拉雅淡色花岗岩带首个锂电气石-锂云母型伟晶岩

喜马拉雅淡色花岗岩具有较好的稀有金属成矿前景。珠穆朗玛峰位于该淡色花岗岩带的中部,其中大量的淡色花岗岩和伟晶岩出露,并成为珠穆朗玛重要的岩石组成部分。近期,我们在珠峰前进沟地区发现并采集了锂成矿伟晶岩,在手标本上可以清晰看到浅褐红色的铁锂云母。进一步的全岩地球化学以及矿物学研究表明,前进沟锂成矿伟晶岩为锂电气石-锂云母型伟晶岩,具有稀有金属元素（Be-Nb-Li）含量高、Rb/Sr比值高、Zr/Hf和Nb/Ta比值低等特征。所有的矿物学和地球化学特征都表明该伟晶岩经历了高度的岩浆分异作用。矿物成分上看,云母由铁锂云母演变为锂云母,电气石由黑电气石演变为锂电气石,Fe、Mg含量降低,Li含量升高,这一特征直接指示着演化过程中岩浆成分的变化。这次发现,是首次在该地区发现锂成矿作用,也是我国喜马拉雅首次报道锂电气石-锂云母型伟晶岩的存在。结合珠穆朗玛峰周围（普士拉、热曲）近期发现的锂辉石-透锂长石型伟晶岩,珠穆朗玛地区很可能成为我国重要的一个锂（Li）成矿远景区。     

赣西北狮子岭花岗岩型锂矿床成因：来自岩石地球化学和锆石U-Pb年代学的约束

赣西北矿集区是中国重要的花岗岩型锂矿资源基地,以发育多期次多阶段岩浆作用和大规模锂等稀有金属矿床著称。区内花岗质岩浆与稀有金属成矿关系密切,为进一步研究该地区花岗质岩浆演化特征及其与稀有金属成矿的联系,确定相关花岗岩成岩时代及成因类型,查明稀有金属成矿机制,笔者选择九岭地区狮子岭花岗岩作为研究对象,对其开展了岩相学、锆石U-Pb年代学及岩石地球化学分析。结果显示,狮子岭花岗岩属高钾钙碱性系列,具有高Si,富P,贫Ca、Mg、Fe,富集U、Hf等高场强元素,亏损Ba、Sr等大离子亲石元素,稀土元素总量较低（ΣREE=2.12×10^-6~146.24×10^-6）,轻稀土元素相对富集（LREE/HREE=3.5~16.53）,弱Eu负异常（δEu=0.23~0.59）的特征。整体上具有S型花岗岩的地球化学特征。锆石U-Pb定年显示,黑云母二长花岗岩成岩年龄为（141.02±0.59）Ma,锂（白）云母碱长花岗岩成岩年龄为（113.96±0.72）Ma。锂（白）云母碱长花岗岩成岩过程中形成磷锂铝石及锂云母等含锂矿物,其成岩年龄可视为锂等稀有金属成矿年龄。该区稀有金属矿化受燕山晚期岩浆结晶分异作用及后期热液交代作用共同影响,岩浆结晶分异作用是Li、Nb、Ta成矿的决定性因素,后期热液交代作用为Li等成矿元素的二次富集提供条件。     

湘南癞子岭花岗岩体分异演化和成岩成矿

湘南癞子岭花岗岩岩株侵位于燕山早期,其锆石U-Pb年龄为154～155Ma,以富含Li,Rb,Sn,W,Nb,Ta等稀有金属元素,Pb,Zn等贱金属元素以及H2O,F等挥发份为主要特征,具有明显的垂直分带。自下而上,在450～500m的垂直距离范围内,从黑鳞云母花岗岩带,经浅色花岗岩(二云母花岗岩和锂白云母花岗岩)带、钠长石花岗岩带、云英岩带、到块状石英和黄玉伟晶岩带,各带岩石的常量元素和微量元素组成都发生有规律的变化。高度发育的岩浆分异和热液演化,是稀有金属和贱金属元素及挥发份逐步富集并成矿的关键机制。虽然大多数癞子岭花岗岩的样品都具有过铝的特征,但由于该岩体特别是其较深部位的黑鳞云母花岗岩中Zr,REE,Y,Nb,Th,U等高场强元素含量高,锆石的εHf值偏高(在-5.9和-1.9之间,平均-4.2),Hf模式年龄tDM值偏低(在1.32Ga～1.58Ga之间,平均1.47Ga),都显示有地幔物质的明显参与,推测癞子岭花岗岩的原始岩浆,可能来源于深部铝质A型骑田岭花岗岩基,或者是与骑田岭岩基相类似的铝质A型花岗质岩浆体的分离结晶作用。     

江西雅山花岗岩岩浆演化及其Ta-Nb富集机制

雅山岩体是华南地区著名的富含钽铌矿的稀有金属花岗岩。从早阶段到晚阶段花岗岩中的云母的Li、F和Rb₂O含量逐渐升高,其类型变化为“黑鳞云母→Li-云母→锂云母”。锆石的Zr元素被Hf、U、Th、Y和P等元素的置换比例随着岩浆演化程度升高而增大。云母和锆石矿物成分变化特征与全岩体系的Zr/Hf、Nb/Ta比值不断下降而F、Li和P₂O₅含量逐渐升高的趋势一致,将可以用于指示岩浆演化程度。在岩浆演化过程中不断富集的P、F、Li元素增加了熔体中非桥氧数（NBO）,促使钽-铌元素在岩浆中的溶解度加大而逐渐富集,在最晚阶段的黄玉锂云母花岗岩具有最高的Ta、Nb元素含量。因此,雅山花岗岩具有较高的F、Li、P₂O₅含量是其岩浆演化及其Ta-Nb富集的重要机制。西华山花岗岩中的云母与雅山花岗岩中的锂云母相比,具有明显较低的F、Li、Rb₂O含量,表明西华山花岗岩的岩浆演化程度相对低于雅山花岗岩。西华山花岗岩中的钨富集与流体作用密切相关,体系氧逸度的降低促使了钨成矿。因此,岩浆演化程度的不同可能是造成华南稀有金属花岗岩发生不同成矿作用（如Ta-Nb矿和W矿）的重要原因。

初论高温花岗岩-伟晶岩锂铍成矿系统:以阿尔金中段地区为例

花岗岩-伟晶岩型锂铍矿床是锂铍矿床的重要类型。关于锂铍金属在源区花岗质岩浆形成过程的富集机制,岩石学家和矿床学家多强调锂铍花岗岩-伟晶岩的母花岗岩（淡色花岗岩）源于变沉积岩的白云母熔融,但实验岩石学显示白云母熔融其熔体量小（<10vol%）、熔体从岩石中提取锂铍的效率低。这意味着白云母熔融形成花岗质岩浆过程锂铍金属富集机制可能不是花岗质岩浆获取锂铍的主要机制。基于黑云母熔融可以获得大体积熔体（可达50vol%）的实验结果,指出变杂砂岩（黑云母片麻岩）与含黑云母的英云闪长质片麻岩部分熔融形成的黑云母花岗质高温岩浆（>800℃）其结晶形成黑云母花岗岩并可分异演化为淡色花岗岩与锂铍花岗岩-伟晶岩、并构成高温花岗岩-伟晶岩锂铍成矿系统,是花岗岩-伟晶岩型锂铍矿床形成的重要成矿系统,其特征与形成机制值得进一步研究。黑云母脱水熔融过程残留相没有富含锂铍矿物的形成,新形成的花岗质岩浆可以高效地从源岩中获取锂铍金属,是一种新的锂铍富集机制。研究团队于2018年率先进入阿尔金中段无人区开展稀有金属成矿作用的地质调查与考察。经过两年的野外地质调查,新发现2个中-大型花岗伟晶岩型锂铍矿（吐格曼铍锂矿与吐格曼北锂铍矿）和塔什萨依金绿宝石矿,发现大量的黑云母花岗岩、二云母花岗岩与伟晶岩,指出这些淡色花岗岩与伟晶岩成因于黑云母花岗岩的分异演化并构成高温花岗岩-伟晶岩锂铍成矿系统,初步构建花岗岩-伟晶岩锂铍成矿系统的3种组构类型,初步揭示吐格曼铍锂矿与吐格曼北锂铍矿形成于468~460Ma,为加里东期锂铍伟晶岩区。阿尔金中段高温花岗岩-伟晶岩系统成矿特征显示：1）高温黑云母花岗质岩浆可以通过连续的分异结晶形成从下往上依次分带、垂向叠置的系统（组构A）,即从黑云母花岗岩到二云母花岗岩、白云母花岗岩与钠长花岗岩、及从近岩体的电气石带到依次远离岩体的绿柱石带、锂辉石带和锂云母带。组构A锂铍伟晶岩的分带与传统的淡色花岗岩-伟晶岩系统中锂铍伟晶岩的分带相似。2）在剪切构造背景下,花岗岩的分异结晶形成从外到里依次为糜棱岩化黑云母花岗岩、二云母花岗岩与白云母花岗岩的环状岩体,而金绿宝石钠长花岗岩从环状岩体中穿出、并向外演化为金绿宝石伟晶岩、绿柱石伟晶岩和锂辉石伟晶岩,金绿宝石钠长花岗岩与金绿宝石伟晶岩的发育是此组构（组构B）的显著特征。3）在强挤压与剪切构造背景下,黑云母花岗岩呈片麻状,伴生的伟晶岩为二云母花岗质伟晶岩、顺围岩片麻理发育、无锂铍矿化。这些特征给我们一些重要启示：即构造动力作用影响与控制岩浆的结晶分异方式,金绿宝石可形成于高温花岗岩-伟晶岩锂铍成矿系统,形成于岩浆分异与演化低程度阶段的低分异花岗伟晶岩不成矿。

Nb-Ta-Ti-W-Sn-oxide minerals as indicators of a peraluminous P- and F-rich granitic system evolution: Podlesí, Czech Republic

Summary The strongly peraluminous, P- and F-rich granitic system at Podlesí in the Krušné Hory Mountains, Czech Republic, resembles the zonation of rare element pegmatites in its magmatic evolution (biotite → protolithionite → zinnwaldite granites). All granite types contain disseminated Nb-Ta-Ti-W-Sn minerals that crystallized in the following succession: rutile + cassiterite (in biotite granite), rutile + cassiterite → ferrocolumbite (in protolithionite granite) and ferrocolumbite → ixiolite → ferberite (in zinnwaldite granite). Textural features of Nb-Ta-Ti-W minerals indicate a pre-dominantly magmatic origin with only minor post-magmatic replacement phenomena. HFSE remained in the residual melt during the fractionation of the biotite granite. An effective separation of Nb + Ta into the melt and Sn into fluid took place during subsequent fractionation of the protolithionite granite, and the tin-bearing fluid escaped into the exocontact. To the contrast, W contents are similar in both protolithionite and zinnwaldite granites. Although the system was F-rich, only limited Mn-Fe and Ta-Nb fractionation appeared. Enrichment of Mn and Ta was suppressed due to foregoing crystallization of Mn-rich apatite and relatively low Li content, respectively. The content of W in columbite increases during fractionation and enrichment in P and F in the melt. Ixiolite (up to 1 apfu W) instead of columbite crystallized from the most fluxes-enriched portions of the melt (unidirectional solidification textures, late breccia).     

In situ analyses of micas in the Yashan granite,South China: Constraints on magmatic and hydrothermal evolutions of W and Ta–Nb bearing granites

Most rare-metal granites in South China host major W deposits with few or without Ta–Nb mineralization. However, the Yashan granitic pluton, located in the Yichun area of western Jiangxi province, South China, hosts a major Nb–Ta deposit with minor W mineralization. It is thus important for understanding the diversity of W and Nb–Ta mineralization associated with rare-metal granites. The Yashan pluton consists of multi-stage intrusive units, including the protolithionite (-muscovite) granite, Li-mica granite and topaz–lepidolite granite from the early to late stages. Bulk-rock REE contents and La/Yb ratios decrease from protolithionite granite to Li-mica granite to topaz–lepidolite granite, suggesting the dominant plagioclase fractionation. This variation, together with increasing Li, Rb, Cs and Ta but decreasing Nb/Ta and Zr/Hf ratios, is consistent with the magmatic evolution. In the Yashan pluton, micas are protolithionite, muscovite, Li-mica and lepidolite, and zircons show wide concentration ranges of ZrO₂, HfO₂, UO₂, ThO₂, Y₂O₃ and P₂O₅. Compositional variations of minerals, such as increasing F, Rb and Li in mica and increasing Hf, U and P in zircon are also in concert with the magmatic evolution from protolithionite granite to Li-mica granite to topaz–lepidolite granite. The most evolved topaz–lepidolite granite has the highest bulk-rock Li, Rb, Cs, F and P contents, consistent with the highest contents of these elements and the lowest Nb/Ta ratio in mica and the lowest Zr/Hf ratio in zircon. Ta–Nb enrichment was closely related to the enrichment of volatile elements (i.e. Li, F and P) in the melt during magmatic evolution, which raised the proportion of non-bridging oxygens (NBOs) in the melt. The rims of zoned micas in the Li-mica and topaz–lepidolite granites contain lower Rb, Cs, Nb and Ta and much lower F and W than the cores and/or mantles, indicating an exotic aqueous fluid during hydrothermal evolution. Some columbite-group minerals may have formed from exotic aqueous fluids which were originally depleted in F, Rb, Cs, Nb, Ta and W, but such fluids were not responsible for Ta–Nb enrichment in the Yashan granite. The interaction of hydrothermal fluids with previously existing micas may have played an important role in leaching, concentrating and transporting W, Fe and Ti. Ta–Nb enrichment was associated with highly evolved magmas, but W mineralization is closely related to hydrothermal fluid. Thus these magmatic and hydrothermal processes explain the diversity of W and Ta–Nb mineralizations in the rare-metal granites.     

Rare-metal pegmatites of Wamba,central Nigeria - their formation in relationship to late Pan-African granites

he Sn-(Nb, Ta) mineralization of the Wamba field (central Nigeria) occurs in muscovite-quartz-microcline pegmatites, which are related to the late-orogenic Pan-African (f 550 Ma) "Older Granites". The emplacement of granites and pegmatites was controlled by late Pan-African shear tectonics. The granitoid magmatism was multiphase and has produced peraluminous biotite granite, biotite-muscovite granite, and muscovite granite plutons. Sodic metasomatism has altered highly evolved granite cupolas and many of the pegmatite dikes. The pegmatitic mineralization of predominantly cassiterite is closely associated with albitization. Chemical data of granites and granitic and pegmatitic muscovites show that Rb, Cs, Sn, Nb, and Ta are enriched during both magmatic and postmagmatic evolution, with highest contents of these elements in early muscovites of the albitized and mineralized pegmatites. Trace-element chemistry of the pegmatitic muscovites reveals a chemical zonation of the pegmatite field related to the late-orogenic shear system.     

Textural and chemical evolution of a fractionated granitic system: the Podlesí stock, Czech Republic

The Podlesí granite stock (Czech Republic) is a fractionated, peraluminous, F-, Li- and P-rich, and Sn, W, Nb, Ta-bearing rare-metal granite system. Its magmatic evolution involved processes typical of intrusions related to porphyry type deposits (explosive breccia, comb layers), rare-metal granites (stockscheider), and rare metal pegmatites (extreme F–P–Li enrichment, Nb–Ta–Sn minerals, layering). Geological, textural and mineralogical data suggest that the Podlesí granites evolved from fractionated granitic melt progressively enriched in H₂O, F, P, Li, etc. Quartz, K-feldspar, Fe–Li mica and topaz bear evidence of multistage crystallization that alternated with episodes of resorption. Changes in chemical composition between individual crystal zones and/or populations provide evidence of chemical evolution of the melt. Variations in rock textures mirror changes in the pressure and temperature conditions of crystallization. Equilibrium crystallization was interrupted several times by opening of the system and the consequent adiabatic decrease of pressure and temperature resulted in episodes of nonequilibrium crystallization. The Podlesí granites demonstrate that adiabatic fluctuation of pressure (“swinging eutectic”) and boundary-layer crystallization of undercooled melt can explain magmatic layering and unidirectional solidification textures (USTs) in highly fractionated granites.

Chemistry of Micas in Rare-Metal Granitoids and Associated Rocks,Eastern Desert,Egypt

Paragenetic, textural, and chemical characteristics of micas from 10 rare-metal granitic stocks and the associated greisens were examined in order to identify the metallogenetic processes of the host granitoids. The investigated granitoids and type occurrences can be categorized as: (1) metaluminous, Nb + Zr + Y-enriched alkali granite (e.g., Hawashia, Ineigi, and a stock northwest of Um Naggat); (2) peraluminous, Ta > Nb + Sn ± W + Be-enriched Li-albite granites (e.g., Nuweibi, Igla, and Abu Dabbab); and (3) metasomatized, Nb » Ta + Sn + Zr + Y + U ± Be ± W-enriched apogranites (e.g., Um Ara, Abu Rusheid, Mueilha, and Homr Akarem).

Mica of the alkali granite is of the annite-siderophyllite series, and is characterized by an average FeO? of 28.14, low MgO of 0.05, a mean Fe?/(Fe? + Mg)_atom. value of 0.996, TiO₂ of 0.69, enhanced Al₂O₃ of 14.91, MnO of 0.58, Li₂O of 0.26, and moderate to low F of 0.86. These characteristics are representative of the relatively highly evolved nature of the annite-siderophyllite-bearing magmas. The micas closely resemble those of the anorogenic pegmatites and A-type granites.

Primary mica of the Li-albite granites is compositionally constrained between zinnwaldite in the lower zones, and white mica in the apical, more evolved zone, and is associated with columbite-tantalite, topaz, and fluorite. The occurrence of zinnwaldite with high contents of Mn and F indicates its stabilization at rather low temperatures in Li- and F-rich sodic melts. The restriction of white mica with lower Mn, F, and Li contents to the apical zones can be attributed to either volatile degassing or to the beginning of topaz crystallization. These two factors brought about an evolutionary trend for micas, which contrasts with the documented trends of Li-micas in other Li-granites (i.e., from Li-siderophyllite or Li-muscovite to lepidolite).

Micas range in composition between white mica in the lower unaltered zones of the apogranites and Li-siderophyllite-zinnwaldite in the apical microclinized and albitized zones; this systematic compositional change appears to reflect roofward increasing in μ_KF and μ_LiF of the exsolved fluids. Columbite, cassiterite, zircon, xenotime, beryl, and fluorite are common associates of the zinnwaldites. However, white micas from the greisenized apogranite and endogreisen veins have diminishing Li contents. The subsolidus formation of zinnwaldite and Li-siderophyllite in the apogranites, and white mica in the associated greisens, represent transitions from magmatic to hydrothermal environments under the influence of decreasing P, T, salinity, and alkalinity of the exsolved fluids.     

Trace elements and evolution of granite melt as exemplified by the Raumid Pluton,Southern Pamirs

New trace element data were obtained by ICP-MS for 58 samples representing eight intrusive phases of the Raumid granite Pluton. All of the rocks, except for one sample that was deliberately taken from a greisenized zone, were not affected by postmagmatic fluid alteration. The sequential accumulation of incompatible trace elements (Rb, Ta, Nb, Pb, U, and others) in the Raumid Pluton from the early to late phases coupled with a decrease in incompatible element contents (Sr, Eu, Ba, and others) indicates a genetic link between the granites of all phases via fractional crystallization of a granite melt. The REE distribution patterns of final granite phases are typical of rare-metal granites. The Ta content in the granites of phase 8 is only slightly lower than that of typical rare-metal granites. Greisenization disturbed the systematic variations in trace element distribution formed during the magmatic stage. The ranges of trace element contents (Rb, Sr, Ta, Nb, and others) and ratios (Rb/Sr, La/Lu, Eu/Eu*, and others) in the Raumid granite overlap almost entirely the ranges of granitic rocks of various compositions, from the least differentiated with ordinary trace element contents to rare-metal granites. This indicates that the geochemical signature of rare-metal granites can develop at the magmatic stage owing to fractional crystallization of melts, which is the case for the melt of the Raumid granite.     

Lithium-mica composition as pathfinder and recorder of Grenvillian-age greisenization,Rondonia Tin Province,Brazil

The tin-greisens of the Rondonia Tin Province, Brazil, are related with the intrusion of a 995−975 Ma evolved rapakivi granite suite interpreted as post-collisional with respect to the Grenvillian orogeny during assembly of Rodinia. Lithium-iron mica (‘zinnwaldite’) is the main mineral in late- to post-magmatic and ore stages of such greisens, and has the potential of being a recorder of the mineralization processes. We provide bulk rock geochemistry of granite, greisen, and greisenized granite, coupled with in-situ major and trace element analyses in mica. Trace element and Li contents in mica were assessed via LA-ICP-MS analysis to avoid interference from ore-mineral inclusions. There is a large-scale zoning (hundreds of meters) of the composition of magmatic mica within the massif. Within 200 m of greisen zones, the mica composition in granite becomes similar to hydrothermal greisen mica, i.e. mica composition is suggested as a proximity indicator for greisen. Mica records the evolution of the system from magmatic to hydrothermal. Early-magmatic mica is Li, Rb and F poor and Mg, Ti and Fe rich, as opposed to greisen mica. Rare metals (e.g. Sn, Ta, W) display complex behavior, as their content in mica increases from magmatic to transitional stages, but decreases from transitional to ore (greisen and vein) stages. This can be explained by a complex interaction between enrichment of metals in the fluid, crystallization order of HFSE-bearing minerals, a decrease in the acceptance of HFSE in mica due to Ti depletion, and a change in the system from melt-dominated to fluid-dominated. Depletion of rare metals in mica can be an important factor for mineralization, since binding these metals to silicates reduces the amount of ore minerals. In granite, up to 86 % of Sn is bound to mica, while in greisen, up to 95 % of it is available to form cassiterite. Niobium behaves differently than other rare metals, likely due to its very high initial partition coefficient in mica and its lower solubility in fluids when compared to Sn and Ta. As such, changes in the Nb/Sn ratio in mica can be used as a proxy for the rock/fluid ratios.

内蒙古东七一山钨多金属矿位于北山造山带东段,是一个以钨为主,共伴生锡、钼、铷、铍、铌、钽、铁和萤石的综合型矿床。本次工作对含矿花岗质杂岩开展了岩石学、地球化学、锆石U-Pb及辉钼矿Re-Os年代学研究。富W-Sn-Mo花岗岩岩性为细粒似斑状二长花岗岩、中细粒似斑状二长花岗岩、花岗斑岩,结晶年龄分别为220.6±1.6Ma、220.4±1.3Ma和220.0±1.1Ma。富Rb-Be-Nb-Ta花岗岩岩性为中粗粒钠长石化似斑状二长花岗岩,结晶年龄为219.9±1.9Ma。辉钼矿Re-Os定年获得加权平均年龄为211±1Ma(MSWD=0.83),说明成岩成矿发生在晚三叠世。含矿花岗质杂岩均具有高硅、富碱、贫铁镁钙特征,为高钾钙碱性花岗岩。其中,富W-Sn-Mo花岗岩为准铝质-过铝质花岗岩;而富Rb-Be-Nb-Ta花岗岩为强过铝质花岗岩。杂岩体轻重稀土具一定分馏,呈现显著的负Eu异常,均富集Rb、K、U、Ta,强烈亏损Ba、Nb、Sr、P、Ti、Zr、Hf。与富W-Sn-Mo花岗岩相比,富Rb-Be-Nb-Ta花岗岩具更低的稀土总量,更显著的Eu负异常,并显示微弱的稀土四分组效应,更高的Li、Ta含量,更低的P、Ti、Zr、Hf、W、Mo、Bi含量。时空关系和地球化学特征表明,杂岩体为同一次岩浆活动不同演化阶段的产物,均经历了较高程度的结晶分异和较强的熔体-流体相互作用。相比而言,富Rb-Be-Nb-Ta花岗岩比富W-Sn-Mo花岗岩结晶分异程度更高,熔体-流体作用更强,花岗质岩浆的高程度分离结晶和熔体-流体相互作用是形成该杂岩体并促使成矿的重要控制因素。
