大别超高压变质带的进变质、超高压和退变质时代的准确限定:以双河大理岩中榴辉岩锆石SHRIMP U-Pb定年为例

在大别超高压变质带的双河地区存在一种特殊类型的榴辉岩,该类榴辉岩主要以似层状、条带状以及不规则透镜体赋存于大理岩中。矿物组成主要为石榴石、绿辉石以及少量的金红石、白云石、菱镁矿等。沿石榴石和绿辉石边缘常退变为角闪石+斜长石等,有的岩石完全退变为斜长角闪岩。激光拉曼和阴极发光综合分析表明,该类榴辉岩中的锆石可划分为两种类型:继承性碎屑锆石和变质锆石。继承性碎屑锆石十分少见,阴极发光图象具有明显的双层结构,即强发光的核和弱发光的边,核部和边部的包体矿物分别为Pl+Ap和Qtz+Pl。SHRIMP U-Pb定年结果表明。继承性碎屑锆石核部记录的207Pb／206Pb年龄为2701±15Ma,Th/U比值明显偏高为1．05,稀土元素配分模式显示重稀土明显富集,具有典型岩浆结晶锆石的特点;边部记录的207Pb／206Pb年龄为1801±12Ma-1753±22Ma,Th／U比值则明显偏低,为0．19-0．22之间,稀土元素配分模式显示重稀土相对平坦,具有典型变质锆石的特点。上述特征表明该类继承性碎屑锆石可能来源于太古代的基底,并经历了早元古代变质热事件的改造。新生的变质锆石无论是矿物包体还是阴极发光图象均与继承性碎屑锆石存在明显差异。有的变质增生锆石具有弱发光的核(阴极发光图象呈灰色)和强发光的边(阴极发光图象呈白色)。核部包体矿物组合为Qtz +Grt+Omp+Phe+Dol+Ap,具有典型石英榴辉岩相矿物组合特征,而边部则保存含柯石英的超高压包体矿物组合Coe+Grt +Omp+Mgs+Arg+Ap,表明该类锆石的核部和边部分别形成于俯冲进变质阶段和超高压变质阶段。另一部分变质增生锆石具有强发光的核(阴极发光图象呈白色)和弱发光的边(阴极发光图象呈黑色)。核部保存的标志性超高压包体矿物组合为Coe+Grt+Omp+Mgs+Arg+Ap,边部则保存Qtz+Cal等退变矿物组合,有的则缺乏矿物包体,表明该类锆石自超高压变质阶段开始生长,并经历了后期退变质作用的改造。从不同微区矿物包体组合的性质及其转变特征可以明显看出,自石英榴辉岩相进变质阶段到超高压峰期变质阶段存在下列转变反应:Qtz→Coe和Dol→Mgs+Arg;而自超高压峰期变质阶段到后期退变质阶段则存在下列退变反应:Coe→Qtz和Arg→Cal。SHRIMP U-Pb定年结果表明,含石英榴辉岩相矿物包体的锆石微区记录的206Pb／238U年龄为249-241Ma,加权平均值为244±4Ma,代表了深俯冲石英榴辉岩相进变质阶段的变质年龄;含柯石英等超高压矿物包体的锆石微区记录的206Pb／238U年龄为239-231Ma,加权平均值为234±3Ma,代表超高压阶段的峰期变质年龄;而含石英和方解石的退变边记录的206Pb／238U年龄为219-211Ma,加权平均值为216±6Ma,应代表后期折返阶段的角闪岩相退变质年龄。上述两类变质增生锆石微区的Th／U比值和稀土元素配分模式十分相似,Th／U比值变化于0．02- 0．18之间,稀土元素配分模式显示重稀土相对平坦,稀土元素总量明显低于继承性碎屑锆石,具有典型变质锆石的特点。根据锆石微区矿物包体的化学成分,采用Grt-Omp和Grt-Omp-Phe温压计,结合前人的变质反应实验资料的综合分析,确定榴辉岩的原岩在深俯冲过程的石英榴辉岩相进变质阶段的变质温压条件为T=588-668℃,P=1．7-1．8GPa;超高压峰期阶段的温压条件为T=784-849℃,P>5．5GPa;而构造折返过程中角闪岩相退变质阶段的温压条件为T=550-720℃,P=0．8～1．4GPa。由此可见,大别超高压变质岩的原岩——元古代(部分可能为太古代)的陆壳物质在早三叠纪发生俯冲至55- 60km深处,并经历了石英榴辉岩相变质作用。随后这些变质岩石继续深俯冲至165～175km的地幔深处,于中三叠纪发生了超高压变质作用,石英榴辉岩相矿物组合转变为超高压榴辉岩相矿物组合。最后这些超高压变质岩石发生构造折返,至晚三叠纪抬升到约30km的中下地壳深度,并经历了角闪岩相退变质作用的改造,超高压榴辉岩相矿物组合退变为角闪岩相矿物组合。由此推断,大别超高压变质带俯冲和折返速率分别为11-12km Myr-1和7．5-8．1km Myr-1。该项成果不仅确定了大别超高压变质地体的石英榴辉岩相进变质-超高压榴辉岩相峰期变质-角闪岩相退变质的年代谱系,而且对于重塑大别超高压变质地体的快速俯冲-折返的动力学模式有着重要的科学意义。     

苏鲁地体超高压和退变质时代的厘定:来自片麻岩锆石微区SHRIMP U-Pb定年的证据

锆石微区矿物包体的激光拉曼和阴极发光测试以及相应的SHRIMP U-Pb定年结果表明,苏鲁地体片麻岩锆石微区记录了十分复杂的年代学信息。其中副片麻岩锆石核部记录了345～743 Ma的继承性锆石年龄,标志着原岩碎屑锆石来源的复杂性;含柯石英的锆石微区记录了220～234 Ma的超高压变质年龄;而含石英包体的边部则记录了202～219 Ma的退变质年龄。正片麻岩继承性锆石核部所记录的年龄为574～680 Ma,表明原岩锆石曾经历了部分Pb丢失,原岩的形成年龄应大于680 Ma;含柯石英锆石微区所记录的超高压变质年龄为224～242 Ma;而锆石边部所记录的退变质年龄为209～219 Ma。两类片麻岩锆石微区所隐藏的超高压变质和退变质年龄信息十分相近,平均值分别为229±4Ma和211±4Ma,标志着苏鲁地体超高压变质时代应为印支期,相应的构造抬升速率约5.6 km/Ma。该项成果不仅确定了苏鲁地体超高压变质和退变质时代,而且对于深入探讨苏鲁地体快速折返过程中的动力学机制有着重要的科学意义。     

大别-苏鲁造山带大理岩中榴辉岩包体的锆石U-Pb年龄及其地质意义

大别-苏鲁造山带大理岩中榴辉岩包体的锆石有两种类型，为变质增生锆石和变质重结晶的残留碎屑锆石。变质增生锆石和完全变质重结晶锆石都具有较低的U、Th含量和Th/U比值，且给出两组变质年龄，分别为240.9±4.8~25.1±3.1 Ma和223.7±4.2~226.0±3.9 Ma。年龄为240.9±4.8~245.1±3.1 Ma的变质锆石的生长对应于板块俯冲过程中高压榴辉岩相变质作用期间的流体活动，而223.7±4.2~226.0±3.9 Ma的变质锆石的生长可能对应了板块折返早期的流体活动。这些年龄同样可以很好地用来限定其寄主大理岩的变质演化历史。     

苏鲁超高压变质带含褐帘石正、副片麻岩中变质锆石的地球化学性质及其SHRIMP U-Pb定年

含褐帘石正、副片麻岩是苏鲁地体重要的超高压变质岩石。矿物包体激光拉曼鉴定、阴极发光图像分析、锆石微区LA-ICP-MS成分测试及SHRIMP U-Pb定年结果表明,含褐帘石正、副片麻岩中的锆石具有明显的三层结构,即弱发光效应的继承性(碎屑或岩浆结晶)锆石的核、强发光效应的含柯石英变质增生幔部和弱发光效应的退变边。继承性岩浆结晶锆石核部记录了新元古代(>810Ma)的原岩形成年龄,含柯石英锆石微区记录了241～223Ma的超高压变质年龄(正、副片麻岩的加权平均年龄分别为230±7Ma和229±7Ma),锆石的退变边记录了217～200Ma的角闪岩相退变质年龄(正、副片麻岩的加权平均年龄分别为211±3Ma和210±2Ma),由此限定苏鲁地体构造抬升速率为5.3km/Myr,表明苏鲁超高压岩石经历了一个相对快速抬升的变质演化过程。与苏鲁-大别其它超高压岩石变质增生锆石对比,含褐帘石正、副片麻岩中的超高压变质增生锆石微区具有十分独特的地球化学性质,主要表现为重稀土元素(HREE)明显富集,U含量明显偏低(10～29×10~(-6)),而Th/U比值则明显偏高(0.45～0.92)。HREE的明显富集与寄主岩石普遍存在超高压矿物褐帘石(富集轻稀土元素)有关,而低U含量和高Th/U比值的特点则表明超高压峰期变质阶段处在高氧逸度(f_o_2)的体系环境。     

云南六合正长斑岩中花岗岩包体锆石U-Pb定年及其地质意义

滇西地区沿金沙江-哀牢山断裂带广泛发育新生代富碱斑岩,其中六合富碱斑岩中发现了与镁铁-超镁铁质深源包体紧密共生的花岗岩包体。本文对花岗岩包体中锆石进行了阴极发光图像、LA-ICP-MS微量元素分析和U-Pb定年研究。研究表明,该花岗岩包体中锆石可分为岩浆锆石、老核新壳的复合岩浆锆石和变质交代成因锆石;复合岩浆锆石的新壳206Pb/238U平均加权年龄为39.2±2Ma,代表花岗岩包体的成岩年龄,与寄主富碱斑岩的成岩年龄基本一致;复合岩浆锆石的老核206Pb/238U平均加权年龄为828.1±7.1Ma,代表基底岩石年龄。变质锆石的206Pb/238U平均加权年龄为108.4±4.4Ma,与角闪石化金云石榴透辉岩中角闪石Ar-Ar年龄102.87±1.19Ma基本吻合,代表地幔流体交代矿物的结晶年龄,表明地幔流体交代作用过程可能在白垩纪前后延续一个相当长的时期。结合岩相学研究,认为该花岗岩包体被捕获运移时处于熔融态;花岗质熔浆的形成很可能与地幔流体作用引发的地壳部分熔融与壳幔岩浆混合作用密切相关。     

大别山超高压变质带中“脉状”榴辉岩的锆石U-Pb年龄

榴辉岩广泛分布于大别山超高压变质带中,出露规模大小不等,成因类型复杂,围岩类型多样,不仅产于基性、超基性岩中,还产于片麻岩、大理岩、石英硬玉岩、变质花岗岩中。对大别山超高压变质带出露的两处"脉状"榴辉岩进行锆石U Pb年龄测定,分别获得上交点年龄(858±25)Ma和(845±150)Ma,下交点年龄(249±20)Ma和(237±13)Ma,表明其原岩形成时代为新元古代,印支期发生过高压—超高压变质作用,与大别山超高压变质带中其他类型的榴辉岩年龄基本一致。     

北大别片麻岩的超高压变质证据——来自锆石提供的信息

本文对北大别片麻岩锆石中矿物包体及年代学进行了研究,首次发现了北大别片麻岩的超高压变质作用证据。结合阴极发光图像和同位素定年,片麻岩锆石中矿物包体组合至少可分出三期:(1)原岩岩浆矿物组合,即斜长石、黑云母、石英和磷灰石;(2)超高压变质矿物组合,即金刚石、石榴子石和金红石等;(3)麻粒岩相退变质矿物组合,如透辉石等。其中,金刚石和石榴子石主要以包体形式被包裹于透辉石中,而透辉石是北大别麻粒岩相退变质阶段形成的代表性矿物。锆石SHRIMP U-Pb定年结果表明,北大别片麻岩的峰期变质时代和麻粒岩相退变质时代分别为218±3Ma和199±10Ma。这些证明北大别片麻岩,如同其中的榴辉岩一样,经过了印支期超高压变质作用。     

大别山双河超高压榴辉岩中变质锆石；离子探针和微区结构研究

对南大别双河超高压岩板榴辉岩中锆石进行了阴极发光、喇曼光谱、U- Pb和氧同位素离子探针微区分析。发现大部分锆石具有核边结构 ,其核和边有明显不同的 U ,Th,Pb含量、Th/ U比、2 0 6 Pb/ 2 38U年龄和δ1 8O值。锆石边部具有变质锆石的结构和化学特征 ,核部具有岩浆锆石向变质锆石变化的过渡特征。 17个点 U - Pb同位素分析中大多数为不一致年龄 ,由 14个正向不一致点所构成的不一致线与一致曲线的上、下交点年龄分别为 2 4 89± 2 5和 2 4 8± 16 Ma,它们代表了榴辉岩原岩形成时间和前进变质至峰期变质过程中原岩岩浆锆石重结晶和变质增生作用的时间 ,大别山变质锆石的成因是复杂的 ,它既可以是变质新生锆石 ,呈独立的颗粒或原岩岩浆锆石的增生边 ,也可以是由原岩锆石在固相或流体存在下的重结晶作用形成。不同程度的重结晶作用是超高压条件下双河榴辉岩原岩岩浆锆石发生的主要的物理化学变化 ,它导致锆石中 U、Th、Pb和Th/ U比的降低和岩浆振荡环带的消退     

西大别浒湾高压变质带变沉积岩锆石U-Pb年龄及地质意义

西大别山浒湾高压变质带是研究秦岭-大别山-苏鲁造山带演化的关键区域, 但是该地区榴辉岩相变质时间还存在较大争议.本文通过对浒湾变质带熊店附近的一个变沉积岩样品进行LA-ICPMS锆石U-Pb定年和微量元素分析, 来确定该地区榴辉岩相变质作用和碎屑锆石的年龄, 并确定该变质带的演化历史.该样品的变质锆石具有弱分带或无分带、低Th/U比值、重稀土含量低且相对平坦以及无明显的Eu负异常等特征.反映这些变质锆石形成时有石榴石, 而缺乏长石, 其形成对应于榴辉岩相变质作用条件.该样品中变质锆石的206Pb/238U加权平均值为310±3Ma, 这一年龄代表了该地区榴辉岩相峰期变质作用的时间, 因此浒湾地区榴辉岩相变质作用时间为石炭纪.碎屑岩浆锆石得到了3组近谐和的U-Pb年龄, 其206Pb/238U年龄变化范围分别为: 400±5Ma~419±5Ma、426±5Ma~449±5Ma以及496±5Ma~524±7Ma, 还有1个颗粒给出了580±7Ma的较老年龄.这些结果表明变沉积岩中的碎屑锆石可能大部分来自于华北板块南缘, 少量来自于扬子板块.      

拉萨地块东南缘晚白垩世高温变质作用及其地质意义:来自石英出溶金红石的证据和锆石U-Pb定年

文中对拉萨地块东南缘林芝杂岩中的含榴斜长角闪岩进行了详细的岩相学研究和锆石U-Pb定年。岩相学观察表明,含榴斜长角闪岩经历了峰期麻粒岩相变质和角闪岩相退变质作用。峰期麻粒岩相矿物组合为石榴子石+高Ti角闪石+紫苏辉石+斜长石+石英+金红石,其中的石榴子石、石英和角闪石中含有大量金红石出溶体,说明这些矿物的初始成分具有高Ti含量。角闪岩相退变质矿物组合为低Ti角闪石+斜长石+斜黝帘石+石英+金红石。利用Ti在石英中的含量(TitaniQ)温度计计算得到峰期麻粒岩相变质温度为803～924℃,后期角闪岩相退变质温度为555～732℃。样品中的锆石具有明显的核边结构,核部为典型岩浆型锆石,具有高的Th/U值,强烈富集HREE,明显的正Ce异常和负Eu异常,206Pb/238U年龄为(89.3±0.6)Ma,代表含榴斜长角闪岩原岩结晶年龄。锆石边部呈无环带结构,同核部相比,具有低的Th/U值,低的M-HREE和弱的Eu负异常,为变质峰期生长的锆石,206Pb/238U年龄为(81.1±0.8)Ma,代表麻粒岩相峰期变质年龄。我们认为约81Ma高温麻粒岩相变质作用可能与洋中脊俯冲造成的板片窗导致的软流圈上涌有关。     

The 2405 Ma and 2310 Ma Mafic Dyke Swarms in the Karelian Craton: Age,Chemical and Sr-Nd Isotope Composition,and Tectonic Setting

正Until recently the time period 2400-2200 Ma in the Erath history was characterized by low amount of age data for igneous events,and was even considered as‘magmatic age gap’(Condie et al,2009;Eriksson and Condie,2014).     

南海ODP1148站中中新世(12～18.3 Ma) 天文调谐的年代标尺

ODP1148站深海沉积岩心的磁化率记录显示出较强的周期性变化规律．研究发现,中新世和渐新世的深海地层物性参数具有很强的斜率周期．Shackletoneta1．利用这一规律,以北半球高纬太阳辐射曲线作为天文调谐的目标,以ODP154航次的深海沉积岩心的磁化率记录作为调谐对象,将磁化率的极大值与北半球天文辐射的极小值相对应,建立了14～34Ma的天文调谐的年代标尺．采用相同的方法,利用南海北部ODP1148站深海沉积岩心的磁化率记录和北半球高纬太阳辐射曲线建立了南海中中新世天文调谐的年代标尺．调谐后的磁化率记录显示了很强的斜率周期和较强的岁差周期,并与太阳辐射在这2个记录上高度相关,此外偏心率周期在磁化率记录中也较显著．调谐后1148站的浮游有孔虫事件年龄与ODP154航次采用相同的天文调谐方法获取的事件年龄异常接近,而与传统方法获取的生物地层事件年龄有较大差距,这在一定程度上证明了利用天文调谐的方法建立中新世深海地层年代标尺的可行性．     

Nature of Three Episodes of Magmatism(2181 Ma, 2115 Ma and 1891 Ma) in the Liaohe Rift of North China: Implications for Tectonic Evolution

Geochemistry and geochronology of the ~620 Ma gold-associated Batouri granitoids,Cameroon

The Batouri gold mining area in southeastern Cameroon is part of the Adamawa–Yadé Domain of the Central African Fold Belt (Pan-African). It is underlain by a variety of granitic rocks, including alkali-feldspar granite, syeno-monzogranite, granodiorite, and tonalite. Geochemical data suggest that these rocks formed by differentiation of I-type tonalitic magma under oxidizing conditions in a continental volcanic arc setting. U–Pb dating of zircons from gold-associated monzogranite-granodiorite at Kambélé gave concordant ages of 619 ± 2 and 624 ± 2 Ma, while Ar–Ar dating of alkali-feldspar granite yielded a non-plateau maximum age of 640–620 Ma. These ages imply that the Batouri granitoids were emplaced during the collision of the West African Craton and the Congo Craton.

The geochemical characteristics of the Batouri granitoids as well as their oxidized state (magnetite series) are typical of gold-associated felsic rocks in subduction settings elsewhere. The similarities in age, composition, and geochemical affinities of these granitoids with those reported from other localities in the Adamawa–Yadé Domain reinforce the earlier assumption that the granitic rocks of this domain represent parts of a regional-scale batholith, with commonly small-scale, high-grade auriferous quartz veins in structurally favourable sites. The spatial and temporal association of gold mineralization and the Batouri granitoids may suggest potential for regional-scale, high-tonnage, granite-related gold ore.     

Fluvial and tidal sedimentation in the 3000 Ma Mozaan basin,South Africa

The 3000 Ma Mozaan Group comprises three interacting sedimentary environments: (1) braided alluvial plain, (2) offshore shelf, and (3) tidalites. The predominance of planar cross-bedded sandstones in the fluvial sequence indicates that sedimentation was dominated by southerly accreting transverse bars in a distal braided river system. However, the development of lenticular conglomerates suggests the occasional formation of longitudinal gravel bars, probably during periods of high discharge. Argillaceous sediments, some of which are ferrugineous represent an interplay between clastic sedimentation and chemical precipitation on a prograding shelf. The abnormal thickness of these shelf deposits is attributed to facies stacking. The absence of barrier beach deposits suggests that the marginal environment was controlled by macrotidal conditions. Two varieties of tidal sequences are recognized. The first, which forms the classic upward-fining succession, contains ubiquitous ebb-dominated paleocurrents and is interpreted as having been influenced by tidal asymmetry. The other, which lacks the mixed flat unit, was apparently generated by tidal currents flowing parallel to the coastline. The nature of the Mozaan sediments suggests at least incipient cratonization in eastern South Africa 3000 Ma ago.     

西藏普兰石英岩中发现41亿年碎屑锆石

在西藏普兰县石英岩中,利用SHRIMPU-Pb法测年发现4.1Ga碎屑锆石。该年龄为目前中国最老单颗粒碎屑年龄。>4.0Ga锆石两测点的Th/U值介于0.76~0.86之间,属岩浆锆石。这一发现,为研究青藏高原的地质演化提供了重要的年龄数据。     

Detrital Zircon of 4100 Ma in Quartzite in Burang, Tibet

A detrital zircon aged 4.1 Ga is discovered by the SHRIMP U-Pb method in a quartzite in Burang County, western Tibet. This is presently the oldest single-grain detrital zircon in China. The Th-U ratios of the two testing points of the 〉4.0 Ga zircon are between 0.76 and 0.86, indicating their magmatic origin. This discovery has offered an important age for investigating the geological evolution of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.     

准噶尔盆地玛湖坳陷侏罗系储层

Geochemistry and petrogenesis of the 595 Ma shoshonitic Qunai monzogabbro,Jordan

The last stage in the formation of the Arabian Nubian Shield in Jordan was dominated by post-orogenic igneous activity of the ∼610–542 Ma Araba Suite, including a monzogabbroic stock intruding the Saramuj Conglomerate, near the southeastern corner of the Dead Sea. The geological setting, petrography, geochemistry and geothermometry of the monzogabbro and other cogenetic varieties are used to shed light on the petrogenesis of this stock and reveal its magma source. The monzogabbro, megaporphyry dikes, and scattered syenite pockets are co-magmatic and alkaline, potassic and shoshonitic in nature. REE and trace elements patterns indicate that these magmas were produced from a mantle that had been modified by subduction-related metasomatism. The parental mafic magma could have been derived by 10% partial melting of LILE-enriched phlogopite-bearing spinel lherzolite, probably lithospheric mantle, in association with post-collisional extension. Fractional crystallization of this parental magma by olivine and pyroxene gave rise to the monzogabbroic magma.The megaporphyry dikes with their giant labradorite plagioclase megacrysts represent feeders of a voluminous volcanic activity that could have lasted for about 10⁵ years.Thermodynamic modeling applying the MELTS software indicates crystallization of this suite in the temperature range of 1184–760 °C at a pressure of 2 kbars, agreeing with olivine-pyroxene, pyroxene, and two-feldspar thermometry. The modeled mineralogy and sequence of crystallization of constituent minerals using MELTS is in remarkable agreement with the observed modal mineralogy of the monzogabbro. Furthermore, a great degree of congruity exists between the modeled and observed chemistry of the major minerals with only minor discrepancies between modeled composition of biotite and olivine.
