喜马拉雅碰撞造山带不同类型部分熔融作用的时限及其构造动力学意义

喜马拉雅新生代淡色花岗岩,是世界上S型花岗岩的典例,主要分布于两条近平行排列的东西向构造带内,特提斯喜马拉雅带和高喜马拉雅带。实验岩石学和理论研究表明:这些淡色花岗岩是中—下地壳岩石进行不同性质的地壳深熔作用的产物,部分熔融类型与构造变形密切耦合。具体表现在:146~35 Ma,在增厚地壳条件下,以角闪岩部分熔融作用为主,形成了具有高Sr/Y比值的二云母花岗岩;228~9 Ma,减压条件下,俯冲物质快速折返,白云母发生脱水部分熔融,形成具有较高Rb/Sr比值的花岗岩;3其中,在21~16 Ma期间,与藏南裂谷系E—W向伸展作用开启密切相关,变泥质岩发生水致白云母部分熔融作用,形成Rb/Sr比值较低,Sr和Ba含量较高的花岗岩;4在25~27 Ma期间,局部地区发生高压水致部分熔融作用。     

特提斯喜马拉雅带东段列麦白云母花岗岩年代学及成因

列麦白云母花岗岩位于特提斯喜马拉雅东段,侵位于雅拉香波穹窿边部早古生代浅变质岩中。为揭示其形成时代及成因,本文对其开展LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb年代学、Hf同位素及岩石地球化学研究。结果表明列麦白云母花岗岩具有高SiO_2(71.08%～71.49%)、Al_2O_3(15.55%～15.72%)和K_2O(4.32%～4.57%),高的A/CNK比值(1.17～1.21),低的CaO/Na_2O比值(0.22～0.28),属于高钾钙碱性过铝质花岗岩;富集Rb、Th和Hf,亏损Ba、Nb、Sr和Ti,稀土元素呈轻稀土(LREE)富集,重稀土(HREE)相对亏损的向右倾斜的配分模式(LREE/HREE=16.57～17.91),具有弱负Eu异常(δEu=0.78～0.79)。与二云母花岗岩比较,列麦白云母花岗岩具有较高的Rb含量(204.1×10~(-6)～293.8×10~(-6))、较低的Sr(134.6×10~(-6))及显著的重稀土分馏效应。锆石新生边年龄为48.5±1.1 Ma(MSWD=2.1),代表其结晶年龄,该年龄为目前报道的最早年龄,其初始Hf同位素组成ε_(Hf)(t)=-6.4～-2.3,显示物源为壳源性质,二阶段模式年龄介于731～839 Ma之间,表明成岩物质形成于新元古代;核部继承锆石年龄变化在135.7～3339.2 Ma之间,表明其源岩为早白垩世沉积岩,是在印度与欧亚大陆主碰撞阶段,陆-陆碰撞导致地壳缩短加压升温,引起早白垩世沉积岩部分熔融而形成的。     

Genesis and Uranium Sources of Leucogranite-hosted Uranium Deposits in the Gaudeanmus Area, Central Damara Belt, Namibia: Study of Element and Nd Isotope Geochemistry

This paper presents a systematic study of major and trace elements and Sm-Nd isotopes in leucogranites closely related to uranium mineralization in the Gaudeanmus area, Namibia. The results illustrate that the uraniferous leucogranites possess high Si_O_2(68.8 wt%–76.0 wt%, average 73.1 wt%) and K(4.05 wt%–7.78 wt%, average 5.94 wt%) contents, and are sub-alkaline and metaluminous to weakly peraluminous, as reflected by A/CNK values of 0.96–1.07 with an average of 1.01. The leucogranites are rich in light rare earth elements(LREE/HREE = 2.53–7.71;(La/Yb)N = 2.14–10.40), have moderate Eu depletion and high Rb/Sr ratios(2.03–5.50 with an average of 4.36); meanwhile, they are enriched in Rb, K, Th, U and Pb, and depleted in Ba, Nb, Ta, and Sr. The ε_(Nd)(t) values of uraninites range from -14.8 to -16.5, and the two-stage Nd model ages are 2.43–2.56 Ga. Detailed elemental and Sm-Nd isotopic geochemical characteristics suggest that the leucogranites were formed in a postorogenic extensional environment. The U-rich pre-Damara basement was the main source of uranium during the primary mineralization event, which is disseminated in leucogranites, whereas the uranium mineralization in veins possibly resulted from remobilization of the primary uranium minerals.     

Microstructural evidence for magma confluence and reusage of magma pathways: implications for magma hybridization,Karakoram Shear Zone in NW India

In the Karakoram Shear Zone, Ladakh, NW India, Miocene leucogranitic dykes form an extensive, varied and complex network, linking an anatectic terrane exposed in the Pangong Range, with leucogranites of the Karakoram Batholith. Mineral paragenesis of the heterogeneous anatectic source rocks suggests melting has resulted from water influx into rocks at upper amphibolite facies conditions, and microstructures suggest anatexis was contemporaneous with shearing. The network is characterized by continuous and interconnected dykes, with only rare cross‐cutting relationships, forming swarms and chaotic injection complexes where magmatic rocks cover up to 50% of the outcrop area. Despite this volume of magma, the system did not lose continuity, suggesting that it did not flow en masse and that the magma network was not all liquid simultaneously. Leucogranites in this network, including leucosomes in migmatites, carry an isotopic signature intermediate between the two main anatectic rocks in the source, suggesting efficient homogenization of the magmatic products. Here, we describe a number of microscopic features of these magmatic rocks which suggests that several pulses of magma used the same pathways giving rise to textural and chemical disequilibrium features. These include: (i) narrow, tortuous corridors of fine‐grained minerals cutting across or lining the boundaries of larger grains, interpreted to be remnants of magma‐filled cracks cutting across a pre‐existing magmatic rock; (ii) corrosion of early formed grains at the contact with fine‐grained material; (iii) compositional zoning of early formed plagioclase and K‐feldspar grains and quartz overgrowths documented by cathodoluminescence imaging; (iv) incipient development of rapakivi and anti‐rapakivi textures, and (iv) different crystallographic preferred orientation of early formed quartz and fine‐grained quartz. Mapping of the fine‐grained corridors interpreted to represent late melt channels reveal an interlinked network broadly following the S‐C fabric defined by pre‐existing magmatic grains. We conclude that early formed dykes provided a pathway exploited intermittently or continuously by new magma batches. New influxes of magma opened narrow channels and migrated through a microscopic network following predominantly grain boundaries along an S‐C fabric related to syn‐magmatic shearing. A mixed isotopic signature resulted not from the mixing of magmas, but from the micro‐scale interaction between new magma batches and previously crystallized magmatic rocks, through local equilibration.     

藏南吉隆淡色花岗岩地球化学特征、成因机制及其构造动力学意义

藏南吉隆淡色花岗岩体位于大喜马拉雅淡色花岗岩带的中部,是吉隆地区藏南拆离系剪切带上部的重要组成部分。地球化学特征显示,岩石具有高SiO_2(72.09%~74.02%)、Al_2O_3(14.54%~15.59%)和K_2O(4.55%~5.59%)含量,高K_2O/Na_2O比值(1.12~1.55)和A/CNK值(1.14~1.18),属于高钾钙碱性过铝质S型花岗岩。富集大离子亲石元素Rb和放射性生热元素U,亏损Ba、Nb、Sr和Zr等元素,具有明显的轻重稀土元素分异和Eu负异常(δEu=0.37~0.54)。具有高的Rb/Sr比值(3.6~9.7)和低的CaO/Na_2O比值(0.15~0.25),指示源区为泥质岩区;(~(87)Sr/~(86)Sr)_i和ε_(Nd)(t)变化范围分别为0.7548~0.7586和-14.0~-13.1,与大喜马拉雅变泥质岩的Sr-Nd同位素组成一致;锆石边部的ε_(Hf)(t)介于-16.0~-8.5之间,位于大喜马拉雅变泥质岩中碎屑锆石的演化线上,表明淡色花岗岩的源岩为大喜马拉雅变泥质岩。岩石(~(87)Sr/~(86)Sr)_i较高而Sr浓度较低,且随着Ba浓度的增加,Rb/Sr比值降低,表明淡色花岗岩是无水条件下白云母脱水熔融形成的,部分熔融可能与藏南拆离系(STDS)伸展拆离导致的深部构造减压密切相关。吉隆淡色花岗岩的形成反映了地壳伸展减薄背景下,构造减压导致的深部地壳物质中含水矿物(白云母)脱水熔融并沿向北伸展的STDS侵位的构造动力学过程。     

藏南定结淡色花岗岩--基底隆升降压熔融成因的地质证据

西藏南部定结地区高喜马拉雅结晶基底中淡色花岗岩体紧靠藏南拆离断层内部产出．野外地质和岩相学特征显示其为S型、分两期侵入的淡色花岗岩体——早期的黑云母淡色花岗岩和晚期的白云母淡色花岗岩。基底副变质岩中广泛分布淡色花岗岩脉体．在基底副变质岩中的淡色花岗岩脉体中发现紫苏辉石暗色麻粒岩残留体，这表明本区高喜马拉雅淡色花岗岩源岩为基底副变质岩，且基底副变质岩是在基底快速隆升降压的条件下发生缺水熔融生成的淡色花岗岩岩浆。     

藏南亚东混合岩的成因及地质意义

高喜马拉雅结晶岩系中广泛发育规模不等、形态各异的混合岩,是研究地壳部分熔融作用的天然实验室。尽管观察表明,藏南许多混合岩与淡色花岗岩具有一定的时空联系,但混合岩与淡色花岗岩是否具有成因联系还存在较大的争议。本文对藏南亚东地区的混合岩中进行了野外地质、岩相学、岩石地球化学和年代学等研究。研究结果表明,亚东混合岩主要是部分熔融作用的产物,具有(近)原地熔融的特征,熔融方式以白云母和黑云母脱水熔融为主,并叠加了分离结晶作用。亚东混合岩与淡色花岗岩在成因上具有紧密联系。相关认识为建立造山带构造演化模型提供新的信息。     

藏南冲巴淡色花岗岩锆石U-Pb、白云母40Ar-39Ar年代学及其地质意义

本文采集藏南冲巴淡色花岗岩样品并进行系统的锆石LA-ICP-MS U-Pb和白云母~(40)Ar-~(39)Ar年代学分析。锆石U-Pb定年结果显示,冲巴淡色花岗岩年龄为12.4±0.4 Ma,处于前人划分的新喜马拉雅阶段与后喜马拉雅阶段分界处。结合淡色花岗岩沿藏南拆离系分布的特征,可将其归入新喜马拉雅阶段。冲巴淡色花岗岩为同构造侵位花岗岩,是藏南拆离系活动导致的构造减压熔融的产物,12.4±0.4 Ma的锆石U-Pb年龄代表了研究区藏南拆离系的活动时代。然而,这一活动时代明显滞后于喜马拉雅中西部地区,呈现自西向东启动时代和停止活动时代逐渐变晚的趋势;白云母~(40)Ar-~(39)Ar年代学分析表明,冲巴淡色花岗岩冷却年龄分别为9.11±0.25 Ma和9.62±0.10 Ma。锆石U-Pb和白云母~(40)Ar-~(39)Ar年代学计算表明,冲巴淡色花岗岩体从12.4 Ma到9.11 Ma发生了快速冷却剥露,冷却速率高达137~162℃/Ma,这一结果与前人通过变质P-T-t研究得到的快速折返的结论相吻合。综合前人研究成果,认为12.4~9.11 Ma的快速冷却事件可能与研究区藏南拆离系的大规模伸展拆离导致的构造剥露有关。     

Petrogenesis of peraluminous magmas from the Akum-Bamenda Massif,Pan-African Fold Belt,Cameroon

Peraluminous intrusives of the Akum-Bamenda Massif, Pan-African Belt, Central Cameroon, were synkinematically emplaced in a Pan-African sinistral strike-slip shear zone. The rock sequences consist of medium-grained leucogranites, fine-grained leucogranites, and orthogneisses of biotite granite composition; in aggregate, they cover a range from about 65 to 74 wt.% SiO₂, defining a continuous chemical evolutionary trend and displaying characteristics of the high-K and medium calc-alkaline series. Leucogranites are strongly peraluminous (A/CNK > 1.1) and plot in the field of S-type granites, whereas orthogneisses are metaluminous and plot in the field of I-type granitoids. Major and trace element compositions and the Rb/Sr isotopes of the leucogranites indicate crustal derivation by remelting of a composite metapelite?+?metagreywacke protolith similar to the metasedimentary rocks of the central domain of the Cameroon Pan-African North-Equatorial fold belt.     

Extreme heterogeneity in sr isotope systematic in the himalayan leucogranites: A possible mechanism of partial melting based on thermal modeling

The small leucogranite plutons occurring in linear belts in the Higher Himalayas have formed due to post-collision partial melting within the Himalayan crust. Several studies have documented that the Sr isotopic ratios in the granite bodies show chaotic variation and meaningful Rb-Sr isochron ages are difficult, if not impossible, to obtain. In tectonically overthickened crust, the depth-temperature profile (geotherm) remains strongly transient for the first tens of millions of years. It is proposed here that the intersecting relations between the transient geotherms and activity-dependent solidus/melting curves may generate small pods of magma at different depths and at different times. Each of these pods will have its unique Sr isotopic ratios. Coalescence of these small pods of magma without any effective homogenization due to deformation-induced fast segregation, ascent and emplacement may lead to pluton-wide extreme heterogeneity in Sr isotopic ratios.
