本文报道了郯庐断裂带巢湖-庐江段上白垩纪火山岩的主量元素、微量元素及Sr-Nd-Pb同位素特征.研究区火山岩SiO2含量为50.2%～75.2%,主要为基性岩和偏酸性岩类.样品富钾、贫钠、偏碱性(σ平均5.36),明显富集LILEs、LREEs,相对亏损HFSEs,具有弱的Eu负异常(δEu平均0.70)及富集的Sr-Nd-Pb同位素组成(Isr=0.7054～0.7090,εNd(t)=-5.2～-17.6).地球化学特征表明岩浆具有多源与源区多变的特征,早期基性岩(125Ma)的岩浆源区主要为华北克拉通地幔,兼有下地壳的贡献;流纹岩(120Ma)主要是地热异常背景下华北中、下地壳源区熔融的结果;粗面岩(100Ma)为华北下地壳和富集岩石圈地幔来源岩浆的混合结果;晚期基性岩(93Ma)的源区主要为华北岩石圈地幔,兼有软流圈和下地壳物质的贡献.这些岩浆活动是在华北克拉通东部岩石圈减薄背景下、郯庐断裂带伸展活动中发生的,深部软流圈上涌使断裂带内的地温升高而造成了岩石圈的部分熔融,其具体岩浆过程指示了详细的岩石圈减薄过程.其中120Ma时期的流纹岩喷发指示断裂带内地壳出现了最高的地温与最浅的等温面,应对应减薄的峰期;而93Ma时期的基性岩喷发反映了深部开始出现了软流圈的部分熔融.一系列现象均指示,郯庐断裂带是华北克拉通东部的岩石圈强减薄带,是热流与岩浆上升的有利通道,也是发生强烈岩石圈地幔交代与置换的场所.     

西秦岭德乌鲁含矿岩体及其包体的岩石学成因和构造意义

德乌鲁岩体位于西秦岭地区,其主体岩性为花岗闪长岩,在岩体内及其接触带发育有多处金、铜矿床。LA-ICP-MS 锆石U-Pb定年表明该岩体侵位于印支早期,年龄为(250±1.8) Ma,该岩体为准铝质,其铝饱和指数ASI为0.9~1.0。所有样品具有高的K2O含量(2.95%~3.52%)、K2O/Na2O比值(0.97~1.10)、Mg#(0.57~0.61)和相容元素含量(w(Cr)=(88~132)×10-6)。因此,我们认为德乌鲁寄主岩形成于壳幔岩浆的混合作用。在该岩体中广泛分布有镁铁质岩浆包体,这些包体即是镁铁质岩浆注入中酸性岩浆中时迅速降温形成的。德乌鲁包体具有中性的成分,其SiO2含量为56.17%~60.95%,岩性主要为辉长闪长岩和闪长岩。相对于寄主岩,包体有着更高的Mg#(0.65~0.67)和低的TiO2含量(0.57%~0.62%)。它们也有着高的钾含量(1.74%~2.43%),属于高钾钙碱性系列岩石。所有样品具有高的相容元素含量,如Cr((212~419)×10-6)和Ni((46~111)×10-6)。相对于重稀土元素,样品中轻稀土元素相对富集,并且具有中等的Eu负异常。在原始地幔标准化的微量元素蛛网图上,所有包体具有明显的Nb-Ta负异常。德乌鲁暗色包体可能形成于曾受俯冲作用改造过的富钾的岩石圈地幔源区部分熔融过程,并伴随有后期镁铁质矿物的分异。本区的印支早期岩浆作用及与其有关的矿床很可能形成于活动大陆边缘环境。

甘肃北山柳园地区花岗岩类的年代学、地球化学特征及构造意义

北山柳园地区分布大量的花岗岩类岩石,岩石类型有花岗闪长岩、二长花岗岩、钾长花岗岩和斑状花岗岩。锆石SHRIMP U—Pb 定年分析结果为:花岗闪长岩的侵位年代为423±8Ma 辉铜山以东(HT-)钾长花岗岩和二长花岗岩的侵位分别为436±9Ma 和397±7Ma。该区花岗质岩石都具有大离子亲石元素和轻稀土元素相对富集,K、Ni、Ta、P 和 Ti 负异常的特征,属于准铝质到过铝质的高 K 花岗岩。花岗闪长岩无 Sr 和 Eu负异常的特征,ε_(Nd)(t)=-2.5～-0.8,其岩浆源于岩石圈地幔或是软流圈与岩石圈地幔相混合的岩浆熔融,并受到了含有火山弧组分的年轻地壳的混染。钾长花岗岩和二长花岗岩具有 Sr 和 Eu 负异常的特征,ε_(Nd)(t)值分别为 1.4、-4.0～-2.0和-2.7～-0.3。HT-钾长花岗岩岩浆主要源于由于岩石圈地幔岩浆作用而导致上覆年轻地壳物质的部分熔融;花牛山附近(HN-)钾长花岗岩岩浆主要源于软流圈地幔部分熔融,可能受到了部分年轻地壳物质的混染;二长花岗岩岩浆主要源于年轻地壳的部分熔融。柳园地区4类花岗岩类岩石都是后碰撞构造背景下的岩浆产物,岩浆形成可能与俯冲板片断离有关。

Geochemistry of late paleoproterozoic Anjana and Amet granites of the Aravalli craton with affinities to sanukitoid series granitoids: Implications for petrogenetic and geodynamic processes

The Mangalwar Complex of the Aravalli craton is marked by the presence of late Paleoproterozoic granites referred to as Anjana Granite and Amet Granite. These granites occur as 1.64 Ga old plutons intruding greenstone sequences and migmatitic gneisses of Mangalwar Complex which comprises parts of BGC of the Aravalli craton. In the present contribution major, trace and REE data of these granites along with associated microgranular mafic enclaves (MMEs) are presented and discussed. Geochemically these granites are quartz monzonite, metaluminous, sub-alkaline and high-K calc-alkaline rocks. The most important characteristics of Anjana and Amet granites are low SiO₂, high MgO, Mg#, K₂O, Ba, and low Na₂O/K₂O ratios. In addition, the REEs show moderate to high fractionation, with (La/Yb) ratios up to 22 and 23 of the Anjana and Amet granites respectively, with no or positive europium anomalies. In the primitive mantle-normalized trace element diagrams both granites show depletion in high-field strength elements (HFSE) such as Nb, Ta, P, Ti and enrichment in LILEs. Most of these features are comparable to those of sanukitoid series rocks. Geochemically both granites are distinguished as high-Ti sanukitoids. Geochemical characteristics of MMEs suggest that they are similar to Anjana and Amet granites and in turn to sanukitoids with lower SiO₂ content. They display LREE enriched patterns with low values (avg. 13) of (La/Yb)_N, negative Eu anomalies and high HREE contents (58 ppm). It is suggested that the parental magma of Anjana and Amet granitic plutons originated through a four stage process (1) Generation of magmatic melts produced by partial melting of terrigeneous sediments of subducting slab in an arc setting; (2) interaction of those melts with the overlying mantle wedge, and total consumption of slab-derived melts during the reaction resulting in production of a metasomatized mantle; (3) tectonothermal event, possibly related to the slab break-off, causing asthenospheric mantle upwelling. This may have induced the melting of the metasomatized mantle and the generation of sanukitoid magmas. The parental magmas of Anjana and Amet granites and their mafic enclaves were generated at lower and higher lithospheric levels respectively (4) Granitic magma ascended due to viscosity and gravity instabilities and interacted with enclave magma at higher mantle level. Both magmas ascended towards upper crust and evolved through fractional crystallisation. Existing data suggest that in the Mangalwar Complex, the formation of sanukitoid magma started even during Mesoarchaean times and continued till late Paleoproterozoic. Formation of sanukitoid magma during this time indicates that in northern Indian shield the multi-stage subduction- accretionary orogenic processes continued for a protracted geological period and played a major role in the origin and evolution of early continental crust.     

S and Pb Isotopic Constraints on the Relationship between the Linong Granodiorite and the Yangla Copper Deposit,Yunnan, China

The Yangla copper deposit, located in western Yunnan Province, China, is a typical giant, newly started mining copper deposit with an estimated Cu reserves of about 1,200,000 tons. The deposit is spatially and temporally associated with the Linong granodiorite, which is rich in SiO2 (SiO2=58.25 wt%–69.84 wt%) and alkalis (Na2O+K2O=5.98 wt%–8.34 wt%), indicating an association with shoshonitic series to high-K calc-alkaline series granites, and shows low contents of TiO2 (0.35 wt%–0.48 wt%), MgO (1.51 wt%–1.72 wt%), and Al2O3 (13.38 wt%–19.75 wt%). The δ34S values of sulfides of the main ore stage from copper ores vary range from ?4.2‰ to ?0.9‰, indicating a much greater contribution from the mantle to the ore-forming fluids. The δ34S values of the late ore stage is ?9.8‰, indicating enrichment of biogenic sulfur which may derive from the crustal hydrothermal fluid. The 208Pb/204Pb, 207Pb/204Pb and 206Pb/204Pb of sulfides of the main ore stage from copper ores range within 38.66–38.73, 15.71–15.74 and 18.35–19.04, respectively, implying that the Pb was derived from the mantle, with the crustal component, probably representing mixtures of mantle lead and crustal lead. Sulfide of the late ore stage in their Pb isotopic composition, 208Pb/204Pb= 38.69, 207Pb/204Pb=15.70, 206Pb/204Pb=18.35, implying that the Pb was derived from the crust. The Linong granodiorite is syn-collisional, produced by partial melting of thickened lower crust, which was triggered by the westward subduction of the Jinshajiang Oceanic plate. During a transition in geodynamic setting from collision-related compression to extension, gently dipping ductile shear zones (related to subduction) were transformed to brittle shear zones, consisting of a series of thrust faults in the Jinshajiang tectonic belt. The tensional thrust faults would have been a favorable environment for ore-forming fluids. The ascending magma provided a channel for the ore-forming fluid from the mantle wedge. After the magma arrived at the base of the early-stage Linong granodiorite, the platy granodiorite at the base of the body would have shielded the late-stage magma from the fluid. The magma would have cooled slowly, and some of the ore-forming fluid in the magma would have entered the gently dipping thrust faults near the Linong granodiorite, resulting in mineralization.     

云南个旧碱性杂岩体的岩石成因及稀土元素富集机制

云南个旧碱性杂岩体由边缘相碱长正长岩和中心相霞石正长岩组成。全岩地球化学分析表明,该碱性杂岩体具有高碱、富钾、富铁、低镁、高分异的碱性-过碱性岩石特征,晚期更富集碱金属元素; LREE/HREE值为20～59,(La/Sm)N=8～50,(Sm/Yb)N=1.2～5.0,富集轻稀土元素,轻稀土元素较重稀土元素分馏程度高,具Eu负异常,亏损Ti、Nb、P、K、Sr等元素,富集Zr、Hf、Th、La、Ce、Nd、U、Rb等元素,岩浆来源与幔源物质有关;碱长正长岩和霞石正长岩具有相似的微量元素和稀土元素特征,具有同源岩浆分异演化的特点; Rb/Sr、Nb/Ta、Zr/Hf等比值均高于或接近于原始地幔的相应值; CIPW标准矿物计算结果表明边缘相碱长正长岩中出现紫苏辉石、锥辉石、橄榄石,中心相霞石正长岩中出现橄榄石。结合(Th/Nb)N和Nb/La值特征以及前人Sr-Nd同位素研究成果,认为个旧碱性杂岩体的岩浆来源于遭受交代作用的富集地幔部分熔融,同时受有限的地壳混染作用而成,形成于后碰撞的伸展环境。碱性岩浆演化晚期更加富碱、经历了更高程度的结晶分异作用是稀土元素、Nb、Ga和Zr元素超常富集的重要原因。     

Compositions of aqueous fluids in equilibrium with pyroxenes and olivines at mantle pressures and temperatures

Solubility experiments were performed at 30 kbars in the system Mg₂SiO₄-SiO₂-H₂O, and at 20 and 30 kbars on omphacitic pyroxene-water mixtures. They confirm that the solubility of the forsterite component in aqueous fluids remains rather low (up to 5 wt.%), whereas the solubility of the SiO₂ component from solids of appropriate SiO₂-rich compositions in the system Mg₂SiO₄-SiO₂-H₂O increases with temperature up to some 75% at 1,100° C. At this temperature a simplified harzburgite consisting of forsterite and enstatite coexists with a fluid containing about 35% (MgO+SiO₂). Hydrous fluids coexisting with omphacitic clinopyroxenes leach sodium silicate component from the solid leaving less jadeitic pyroxenes behind. Most interestingly, the amount of sodium leached at constant temperature increases with decreasing pressure.Comparison of the results with previous solubility studies in the system K₂O-MgO-Al₂O₃-SiO₂-H₂O indicates that hydrous fluids in the mantle must be alkaline rather than silicanormative. Alkali metasomatism caused by such fluids would lead to potassium enrichment in deeper portions of the upper mantle and to sodium enrichment at shallower levels, where amphiboles become stable. This K/Na fractionation in the upper mantle may explain the generation of K-rich or of Na-rich magmas through partial melting at different depths.     

Petrogenesis of Early Cretaceous bimodal volcanic rocks in the Fanchang Basin,SE China: an energy-constrained assimilation–fractional crystallization model

Volcanic rocks in the Middle–Lower Yangtze River Valley (MLYRV) constitute a bimodal magmatic suite, with a significant compositional gap (between 50% and 63% SiO₂) between the mafic and felsic members. The suite is characterized by a relatively wide spectrum of rock types, including basalts, trachytes, and rhyolites. The basaltic rocks have low-to-moderate SiO₂ contents of 46.00–50.01%, whereas the trachytes and rhyolites possess SiO₂ contents in the range of 63.08–77.61%. Rocks of the bimodal suite show moderate enrichment of LILEs, negative Nb, Ta, and Ti anomalies, and are significantly enriched in LREEs. The basalts were most likely generated by parental mafic magmas derived from enriched lithospheric mantle with minor assimilation of crustal materials involving coeval crystal fractionation during magma evolution. The results of energy-constrained assimilation and fractional crystallization simulations demonstrate that the felsic magma was produced by the mixing of 5–20% lower crustal anatectic melts with an evolved mafic magma (～48% SiO₂) and accompanied by extensive clinopyroxene, plagioclase, biotite, and Fe–Ti oxide fractionation. Our model for the genesis of felsic rocks in bimodal suites is different from the traditional models of crustal melting and fractional crystallization or assimilation–fractional crystallization of basaltic liquids.     

Alkaline basalt from the Central Iran, a mark of previously subducted Paleo-Tethys oceanic crust

In western part of the CEIM (Central-East Iranian Microcontinent) (Bayazeh area, Isfahan province, Iran), a series of Paleozoic basaltic rocks, occur. Major minerals of these basalts are olivine, clinopyroxene (diopside, augite), plagioclase (albite), sanidine, amphibole (kaersutite), phlogopite, ilmenite and magnetite. Secondary minerals include epidote, pumpellyite, albite, calcite and chlorite. Olivine and clinopyroxene are as phenocryst, while feldspars are restricted to groundmass. Chemical composition of clinopyroxenes indicates crystallization during ascending of magma. Geochemical analysis of whole rock samples shows that these rocks are characterized by low SiO₂ (43.21–48.45 wt %), high TiO₂ (1.81–3.00 wt %) and P₂O₅ (0.18–0.34 wt %). Petrography, chemistry of clinopyroxenes and whole rock analyses reveal an alkaline nature of these basalts. They are enriched in alkalis (Na₂O + K₂O = 4.1–7.7 wt %), LILE, HFSE and LREE. The Bayazeh alkali-basalts present strong enrichment in LREE relative to HREE (La/Lu ratio = 77.6–119.6) and were dominantly derived from partial melting of a metasomatized asthenospheric garnet-amphibole lherzolite. Field relationships reveal that junction of faults in west of the Bayazeh prepared a suitable path for ascending of magma from deep regions to surface and intra-plate continental magmatism. The Paleo-Tethys subduction from lower to upper Paleozoic is too enough for mantle enrichment in volatiles and basaltic alkaline magmatisrn in upper Paleozoic of Bayazeh area.     

峨眉山大火成岩省晚期酸性火山岩的岩石地球化学特征

峨眉山大火成岩省出露有少量酸性火山岩,它们与基性火山岩共生,表现出双峰式的特征,为研究峨眉山地幔柱晚期岩浆活动提供了重要的窗口。本文通过对双峰式火山岩主、微量元素和斑晶电子探针分析研究表明,基性火山岩属于碱性玄武岩,酸性火山岩主要由粗面岩组成;相对玄武岩,粗面岩中MgO、Fe2O3、P2O5、TiO2、CaO含量明显降低;粗面岩与玄武岩具有相互平行的REE配分模式,但粗面岩出现明显的Eu负异常,以及Sr、Ti等元素的强烈亏损;粗面岩与玄武岩具有同源的特征,通过稀土元素模拟计算表明粗面岩可以由玄武质岩浆经过80%分离结晶作用(辉石、斜长石和Fe-Ti氧化物)而形成。在峨眉山大火成岩省晚期出现双峰式火山岩,可能与地幔柱活动晚期岩浆供给少,在地壳岩浆房中停留时间长,岩浆发生强烈分离结晶作用有关。     

栖霞牙山花岗岩及其暗色包体地球化学特征及成因研究

栖霞牙山花岗岩体形成于中生代早白垩世（118 Ma）,其岩石类型以花岗岩和花岗闪长岩为主,岩体中发育大量的暗色闪长质微粒包体。通过对牙山花岗岩及其暗色包体地球化学特征研究表明,包体围岩w（SiO₂）=65.5%~68.82%,铝饱和度（A/CNK）为0.89~1.03<1.1,为准铝质钙碱性Ⅰ型花岗岩;暗色包体具有较低w（SiO₂）值（54.82%~60.89%）、高w（TFe₂O₃）值（6.11%~8.15%）、高w（MgO）值（3.57%~5.19%）的特征。稀土元素配分模式图显示二者皆为轻稀土富集的右倾型曲线,微量元素蛛网图中二者均表现为富集Ba、K等大离子亲石元素,亏损Ta、Nb、Ti等高场强元素,具有大陆地壳的特征。暗色包体与寄主岩石的Sr同位素初始比值（⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr）_i分别为0.709 29~0.709 58和0.709 21~0.709 71,应为同源岩浆的产物。两阶段Nd模式年龄（T_2DM）分为2 291 Ma-2 391 Ma和2 208 Ma-2 353 Ma,表明可能是古元古界陆壳物质部分熔融的产物。Pb同位素特征显示牙山岩体的原始岩浆以下地壳为主,w（Nb）/w（Ta）值介于下地壳与原始地幔之间,表明可能受到幔源物质的影响,包体中大量磷灰石呈针状结晶状态,进一步暗示存在岩浆混合作用。综上并结合区域构造背景认为,牙山岩体为早白垩世中晚期起源于火山弧环境的壳源特征花岗岩,形成过程中存在幔源物质的加入,它的形成与太平洋板块的俯冲作用密切相关。     

The Petrological and Geochemical Evolution of Ediacaran Rare-Metal Bearing A-type Granites from the Jabal Aja Complex, Northern Arabian Shield, Saudi Arabia

New fieldwork, mineralogical and geochemical data and interpretations are presented for the rare-metal bearing A-type granites of the Aja intrusive complex(AIC) in the northern segment of the Arabian Shield. This complex is characterized by discontinuous ring-shaped outcrops cut by later faulting. The A-type rocks of the AIC are late Neoproterozoic post-collisional granites, including alkali feldspar granite, alkaline granite and peralkaline granite. They represent the outer zones of the AIC, surrounding a core of older rocks including monzogranite, syenogranite and granophyre granite. The sharp contacts between A-type granites of the outer zone and the different granitic rocks of the inner zone suggest that the AIC was emplaced as different phases over a time interval, following complete crystallization of earlier batches. The A-type granites represent the late intrusive phases of the AIC, which were emplaced during tectonic extension, as shown by the emplacement of dykes synchronous with the granite emplacement and the presence of cataclastic features. The A-type granites consist of K-feldspars, quartz, albite, amphiboles and sodic pyroxene with a wide variety of accessory minerals, including Fe-Ti oxides, zircon, allanite, fluorite, monazite, titanite, apatite, columbite, xenotime and epidote. They are highly evolved(71.3–75.8 wt% SiO_2) and display the typical geochemical characteristics of post-collisional, within-plate granites. They are rare-metal granites enriched in total alkalis, Nb, Zr, Y, Ga, Ta, REE with low CaO, MgO, Ba, and Sr. Eu-negative anomalies(Eu/Eu* = 0.17–0.37) of the A-type granites reflect extreme magmatic fractionation and perhaps the effects of late fluid-rock interactions. The chemical characteristics indicate that the A-type granites of the AIC represent products of extreme fractional crystallization involving alkali feldspar, quartz and, to a lesser extent, ferromagnesian minerals. The parent magma was derived from the partial melting of a juvenile crustal protolith with a mantle contribution. Accumulation of residual volatile-rich melt and exsolved fluids in the late stage of the magma evolution produced pegmatite and quartz veins that cut the peripheries of the AIC. Post-magmatic alteration related to the final stages of the evolution of the A-type granitic magma, indicated by alterations of sodic amphibole and sodic pyroxene, hematitization and partial albitization.     

Late Triassic alkaline complex in the Sulu UHP terrane: Implications for post-collisional magmatism and subsequent fractional crystallization

Continental subduction and its interaction with overlying mantle wedge are recognized as fundamental solid earth processes, yet the dynamics of this system remains ambiguous. In order to get an insight into crust–mantle interaction triggered by partial melting of subudcted continental crust during its exhumation, we carried out a combined study of the Shidao alkaline complex from the Sulu ultrahigh pressure (UHP) terrane. The alkaline complex is composed of shoshonitic to ultrapotassic (K₂O: 3.4–9.3 wt.%) gabbro, pyroxene syenite, amphibole syenite, quartz syenite, and granite. Field studies suggest that the mafic rocks are earlier than the felsic ones in sequence. LA-ICPMS zircon U–Pb dating on them gives Late Triassic ages of 214 ± 2 to 200 ± 3 Ma from mafic to felsic rocks. These ages are slightly younger than the Late Triassic ages (225–210 Ma) of the felsic melts from partial melting of the Sulu UHP terrane during exhumation. The alkaline rocks have wide ranges of SiO₂ (49.7–76.7 wt.%), MgO (8.25–0.03 wt.%), Ni (126.0–0.07 ppm), and Cr (182.0–0.45 ppm) contents. The contents of MgO, total Fe₂O₃, CaO, TiO₂ and P₂O₅ decrease with increasing SiO₂ contents. The contents of Na₂O, K₂O, and Al₂O₃ increase from gabbro to amphibole syenite, and decrease from amphibole syenite to granite, respectively. The alkaline rocks have characteristics of an arc-like pattern in trace element distribution, e.g., enrichment of LREE, LILE (Rb and Ba), Th and U, depletion of HFSE (Nb, Ta, P and Ti), and positive Pb anomalies. From the mafic rocks to the felsic rocks, the (La/Yb)_N ratios and the contents of the total REE, Sr and Ba decrease but the Rb contents increase. The alkaline rocks with high SiO₂ contents also display features of an A2-type granitoids, e.g., high contents of total alkalis, Zr and Nb and high ratios of Fe₂O₃^T/MgO, Ga/Al, Yb/Ta and Y/Nb, suggesting a post-collisional magmatism during exhumation of the Sulu UHP terrane. The alkaline rocks have homogeneous initial ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr ratios (0.7058–0.7093) and negative ε_Nd(t) values (− 18.6 to − 15.0) for whole-rock. The Sr–Nd isotopic data remain almost unchanged with varying SiO₂ and MgO contents, suggesting a fractional crystallization (FC) process from the same parental magma. Our studies suggest a crust–mantle interaction in continental subduction interface as follows: (1) hydrous felsic melts from partial melting of subducted continental crust during its exhumation metasomatized the overlying mantle wedge to form a K-rich and amphibole-bearing mantle; (2) partial melting of the enriched lithospheric mantle generated the Late Triassic alkaline complex under a post-collisional setting; and (3) the alkaline magma experienced subsequent fractionational crystallization mainly dominated by olivine, clinopyroxene, plagioclase and alkali feldspar.
