Geochemistry of granulite‐facies granitic rocks from Battye Glacier,northern Prince Charles Mountains,East Antarctica

Proterozoic basement outcrops in the vicinity of Battye Glacier, northern Prince Charles Mountains, are dominated by granulites and gneisses derived from felsic (granitoid) intrusive igneous rocks, and by pegmatites. Felsic orthopyroxene granulites, garnet leucogneisses and garnet pegmatites have major and trace element compositions of highly felsic, but not strongly fractionated, granites. The garnet leucogneisses and garnet pegmatites have S‐type characteristics, whereas the felsic granulites are probably I‐type, although their high Zr+Nb+Y+Ce abundances suggest possible A‐type affinities. Intermediate orthopyroxene ± clinopyroxene granulites mostly resemble I‐type quartz diorites, except for a small subgroup of samples (characterised by low Na₂O and K₂O, and high MgO, Ni, Cr and HREE) of uncertain affinities and significance. Element ratios involving LILE (e.g. K/Rb, Rb/Ba, Rb/Sr, K/La, La/Th) closely match those typical of the inferred granitoid protoliths, suggesting that these rocks have experienced relatively little LILE depletion (except possibly for U) during regional metamorphism. It is therefore inferred that metamorphism was probably broadly isochemical. Because the felsic and intermediate granulites and garnet leucogneisses are Sr‐depleted, Y‐undepleted and mostly have negative Eu anomalies they are inferred to be the products of partial melting of felsic crustal sources leaving plagioclase‐bearing residua. Plagioclase fractionation during crystallisation could also account for these characteristics, but K/Rb, Rb/Ba and Rb/Sr ratios in these rocks are not consistent with strong fractionation of feldspar. Garnet pegmatites differ chemically from garnet leucogneisses mainly in their lower Fe, Ti, Nb, Zn, Zr, Th and REE abundances and positive Eu anomalies, related to lower garnet, ilmenite and zircon contents in the garnet pegmatites. A genetic link between these two rock types, probably involving fractionation of these minerals during partial melting or crystallisation, is inferred. Incompatible‐element abundances suggest that generation of the Battye Glacier granitic magmas from felsic crust might have occurred in a mature continental magmatic arc possibly well removed from an active subduction trench or, perhaps, in an intracontinental setting.     

西藏南部晚始新世打拉埃达克质花岗岩及其构造动力学意义

打拉二云母花岗岩岩体位于雅拉香波穹隆的东南,侵入到中生代以前的变质岩系(眼球状花岗质片麻岩和石榴黑云母片麻岩)和特提斯沉积岩(页岩和砂岩)中,主要由石英、斜长石、钾长石、黑云母和白云母组成,形成于～44.3Ma。打拉二云母花岗岩地球化学特征表明:打拉花岗岩具有高Al_2O_3(16.0%～17.0%)、Na_2O/K_2O(1.2)以及A/CNK比值(1.05),表明打拉花岗岩为富钠过铝质花岗岩;轻稀土(LREE)富集,重稀土(HREE)相对亏损,HREE中的Ho到Lu元素有变平的特征((Ho/Lu)_N=1.11～1.46);具有微弱或无Eu异常,Eu/Eu~*=0.87～0.95;较高的初始Sr同位素比值(~(87)Sr/~(86)Sr(i)=0.71754～0.71785)和较低的初始Nd比值(ε_(Nd)(i)=-9.15～-12.4)。打拉花岗岩具有高Sr含量(为355×10~(-6)～416×10~(-6))和Sr/Y的比值(59.1～71.5)、高La/Yb比值、低Y及HREE亏损的特征,与埃达克质花岗岩类似。上述特征表明打拉花岗岩是在较高压力条件下,以角闪岩为主的深部岩石部分熔融的结果。

Metamorphic evolution of sapphirine‐ and orthoamphibole‐cordierite‐bearing gneiss,Okanogan dome,Washington, USA

Gneiss domes are commonly cored by quartzofeldspathic rocks that provide little information about the pressure–temperature–fluid history of the domes. Three northern Cordilleran migmatite domes (Thor‐Odin and Valhalla/Passmore, British Columbia, Canada; Okanogan, Washington, USA), however, contain Mg–Al‐rich orthoamphibole‐cordierite gneiss as layers and lenses that record metamorphic conditions and pressure–temperature (P–T) path information not preserved in the host migmatite. These Mg–Al‐rich rocks are therefore a valuable archive of metamorphic conditions during dome evolution, although refractory rocks such as these commonly contain reaction textures that may complicate the calculation of metamorphic conditions. In the Okanogan dome, Mg–Al‐rich layers are part of the Tunk Creek unit, which occurs at the periphery of an underlying migmatite domain. Bulk compositional layers (mm‐ to m‐scale) consist of gedrite‐dominated, hornblende‐dominated and biotite‐bearing layers that contain variable amounts of gedrite, hornblende, anorthite, cordierite, spinel, sapphirine, corundum, kyanite, biotite and/or staurolite. The presence of different compositional layers (some with reaction textures, some without) allows systematic analysis of metamorphic history by a combined petrographic and phase equilibrium analysis. Gedrite‐dominated layers containing relict kyanite preserve evidence of the highest‐P conditions; symplectitic and coronal reaction textures around kyanite indicate decompression at high temperature. Gedrite‐dominated layers lacking these reaction textures contain layers of sapphirine and spinel in apparent textural equilibrium and record a later high‐T–low‐P part of the path. Phase equilibria (pseudosection) analysis for layers that lack reaction textures indicates metamorphic conditions of 720–750 °C at a range of pressures (>8 to <4 kbar) following decompression. Elevated crustal temperatures and concordant structural fabrics in the Tunk Creek unit and underlying migmatite domain suggest that the calculated P–T conditions recorded in Tunk Creek rocks were coeval with anatexis, extension, and dome formation in Palaeocene–Eocene time. In contrast to orthoamphibole‐cordierite gneiss in the other Cordilleran domes, the Tunk Creek unit occurs as a discontinuous km‐scale layer rather than as smaller (m‐scale) pods, is more calcic, and lacks garnet. In addition, kyanite did not transform to sillimanite, and spinel commonly occurs as a blocky matrix phase in addition to vermicules in symplectite. These differences, along with the compositional layering, allow an analysis of bulk composition v. tectonic (P–T path) controls on mineral assemblages and textures. Pseudosection modelling of different layers in the Tunk Creek unit provides a basis for understanding the metamorphic history of these texturally complex, refractory rocks and their host gneiss domes, and other such rocks in similar tectonic settings.     

苏鲁高压—超高压变质带南部花岗片麻岩—花岗岩的多时代演化

苏鲁高压－超高压变质带中，广泛分布有花岗片麻岩－花岗岩系列，有关其形成的时代和成因机制长期存在争议。岩石露头表现为强烈的片麻理，并且多数和榴辉岩及榴辉岩相岩石密切伴生。其岩石类型有变化，从斜长片麻岩－花岗闪长质片麻岩－二长花岗片麻岩演化到花岗岩。矿物和地球化学变化也较大。从残留的高压和超高压矿物及其退变质反应等。说明它们中有部分曾经历了高压－超高压变质作用。该变质部连云港地区4个二长花岗片麻岩－花岗岩岩体中精的单颗粒锆石，运用Pb-Pb法（质谱计双带源逐层发－沉积法）和U-Pb法（离子探针SHRIMP分析），获得的年龄值跨度大，从859Ma到150Ma，分别属于4个年龄段（时段），但是主要数据集中在600－859Ma和220－250Ma两个时段，锆石的形貌特征研究显示，这些花岗片麻岩－花岗岩是苏鲁高压变质带中长期演化的产物。其物质来源与古元古代，乃至太古变质表壳岩密切相关。元古代大量岩浆结晶型锆石指示了当时存在强烈的花岗岩浆活动，导致大量花岗岩类岩石的形成。古生代（加里东期）和中生代早期（印支期）分别经历了变质作用，尤其是印支期，至少一部分和榴辉岩源岩一起经历了高压－超高压变质作用，并且伴随有地壳部分熔融，引起又一次花岗岩浆活动，再生花岗岩，该区南部东海地区尤为明显，中生代晚期燕山期的岩浆，热液活动对花岗片麻岩也有影响，其中新元古代和印支期则是花岗片麻岩及至大别造山带中两个重要的地质构造时期。     

北大别片麻岩的锆石U—Pb年龄离子探针测定及其地质意义

本文对北大别西部的湖北英山万家老屋、罗田七道河尹家店和安徽金寨丁埠乡李集3个片麻岩样品中锆石进行了BSE显微结构分析，并在此基础上对锆石进行了离子探针U－Pb年龄测定。结果表明北大别存在两种类型的片麻岩，它们的原岩分别形成于晋宁期和燕山期，其中英山万家老屋片麻岩的形成年龄为794Ma，后期地质事件对其锆石U－Pb年龄造成的影响较小；七道河尹家店片麻岩的形成年龄为730Ma，并可能受到燕山期岩浆事件的影响，得到了140Ma左右的变质年龄；丁埠乡李集片麻岩的形成年龄为140Ma。结合已有的年代学结果，北大别地体广泛存在晋宁期的岩浆事件，表明其可能为扬子板块的北缘。     

Two Types of Archaean Grey Gneiss in North China and Their Geological Significance1,2

Abstract Grey gneisses are tonalitic intrusive rocks that have Archaean characteristics and tectonic significance. Archaean grey gneisses in North China may be classified into two types: the Zunhua type and the Hengshan type. Grey gneisses of the Zunhua type alternate with basic granulites, forming a bimodal migmatitic suite. The rock is characterized by complex mineral composition, highly varied REE patterns and positive Eu anomaly and originated from autochthonous or partly autochthonous deep - level migmatization with a high degree (30% ±) of fusion. As the sub - stratum in the root of the early - stage high - grade greenstone belt, they prevented basic rocks from sinking. Grey gneisses of the Hengshan type are characterized by a relatively distinct intrusion form, large - amplitude upward emplacement, rather simple mineral composition, only slight changes of REE patterns and absence of Eu anomaly. The rock is a product of subduction and underthrusting of the high - grade greenstone belt and then fusion and emplacement with a low degree (15% ±) of fusion. In this paper an attempt is made to furnish important information about palaeoplate tectonics and early crustal evolution by means of a study of grey gneisses.     

华北太古宙两类灰色片麻岩及其地质意义

灰色片麻岩是具太古宙特征而有构造意义的英云间长质侵入体。华北太古苗灰色片麻岩可分为两种类型:其一为遵化型。它与基性麻粒岩呈“互层”产出,形成双峰式混合岩伏建造。矿物成分复杂,稀土型式变化大,有正铕异常,属原地半原地深位混合岩化成因,熔融量大(30％±),作为早期深变质绿岩带根部的板底垫托而阻止了基性岩的沉没。其二为恒山型。有岩体形态和较大幅度的上升侵位,矿物成分简单,稀土型式变化小,常无铕异常,为深变质绿岩带俯冲下插并熔融侵位的产物,熔融量小(15%±)。本文试图通过灰色片麻岩的研究为古板块构造和早期地壳演化提供重要信息。
