Petrogenesis of Adakitic Intrusive Rocksin Xu-Huai Area, Eastern China

1IntroductionAdakite has specially sense in the resuming structure background of rock formed,because of its distinctive geochemistry feature and implying partic-ular petrogenesis and ore genesis mechanism (De-fant and Drummond,1990),as a result,it arouses numerous researchers widely concern. After adakite conception was drawn by Chinese (Wang etal.,2000), it was widely concerned by domestic re-searchers (Wang etal.,2000,2001a,2001b;Xu etal.,2000;Pan etal.,2001;Qian,2001;Xu etal.,2001;X…     

云南个旧老厂-卡房花岗岩体成因：锆石U-Pb年代学和岩石地球化学约束

在云南个旧地区发育大量与成矿时空密切相关的侵入岩。个旧东区的老厂-卡房花岗质岩体为一隐伏的花岗岩体,侵入于三叠纪个旧组灰岩和碳酸盐地层中,岩性主要为中细粒黑云母花岗岩,是个旧地区与成矿关系最为密切的花岗岩体之一。岩石的ACNK值大多在1.0以上,属于高钾钙碱性系列岩石;U、Th含量较高,应归属于HHP花岗岩;岩石类型属于S型花岗岩,但经历了高度的分异和演化;n(Rb)/n(Sn)- n(Rb)/n(Ba)与n(CaO)/n(Na2O)-n(Al2O3)/n(TiO2)图解均暗示岩石的源区性质为由粘土岩所派生的岩浆。锆石LA-ICP-MS定年结果表明,老厂-卡房岩体形成于85±0.85Ma,相当于晚白垩世。根据区域地质和花岗岩的地球化学特征,暗示个旧地区燕山晚期处于伸展构造背景。     

Global Correlations of Ocean Ridge Basalt Chemistry with Axial Depth: a New Perspective

The petrological parameters Na₈ and Fe₈, which are Na₂O andFeO contents in mid-ocean ridge basalt (MORB) melts correctedfor fractionation effects to MgO = 8 wt%, have been widely usedas indicators of the extent and pressure of mantle melting beneathocean ridges. We find that these parameters are unreliable.Fe₈ is used to compute the mantle solidus depth (P_o) and temperature(T_o), and it is the values and range of Fe₈ that have led tothe notion that mantle potential temperature variation of T_P= 250 K is required to explain the global ocean ridge systematics.This interpreted T_P = 250 K range applies to ocean ridges awayfrom ‘hotspots’. We find no convincing evidencethat calculated values for P_o, T_o, and T_P using Fe₈ have anysignificance. We correct for fractionation effect to Mg^# = 0·72,which reveals mostly signals of mantle processes because meltswith Mg^# = 0·72 are in equilibrium with mantle olivineof Fo_89·6 (vs evolved olivine of Fo_{88·1–79·6}in equilibrium with melts of Fe₈). To reveal first-order MORBchemical systematics as a function of ridge axial depth, weaverage out possible effects of spreading rate variation, local-scalemantle source heterogeneity, melting region geometry variation,and dynamic topography on regional and segment scales by usingactual sample depths, regardless of geographical location, withineach of 22 ridge depth intervals of 250 m on a global scale.These depth-interval averages give Fe₇₂ = 7·5–8·5,which would give T_P = 41 K (vs 250 K based on Fe₈) beneathglobal ocean ridges. The lack of Fe₇₂–Si₇₂ and Si₇₂–ridgedepth correlations provides no evidence that MORB melts preservepressure signatures as a function of ridge axial depth. We thusfind no convincing evidence for T_P > 50 K beneath globalocean ridges. The averages have also revealed significantcorrelations of MORB chemistry (e.g. Ti₇₂, Al₇₂, Fe₇₂,Mg₇₂, Ca₇₂, Na₇₂ and Ca₇₂/Al₇₂) with ridge axial depth. Thechemistry–depth correlation points to an intrinsic linkbetween the two. That is, the 5 km global ridge axial reliefand MORB chemistry both result from a common cause: subsolidusmantle compositional variation (vs T_P), which determines themineralogy, lithology and density variations that (1) isostaticallycompensate the 5 km ocean ridge relief and (2) determine thefirst-order MORB compositional variation on a global scale.A progressively more enriched (or less depleted) fertileperidotite source (i.e. high Al₂O₃ and Na₂O, and low CaO/Al₂O₃)beneath deep ridges ensures a greater amount of modal garnet(high Al₂O₃) and higher jadeite/diopside ratios in clinopyroxene(high Na₂O and Al₂O₃, and lower CaO), making a denser mantle,and thus deeper ridges. The dense fertile mantle beneath deepridges retards the rate and restricts the amplitude of the upwelling,reduces the rate and extent of decompression melting, givesway to conductive cooling to a deep level, forces melting tostop at such a deep level, leads to a short melting column,and thus produces less melt and probably a thin magmatic crustrelative to the less dense (more refractory) fertile mantlebeneath shallow ridges. Compositions of primitive MORB meltsresult from the combination of two different, but geneticallyrelated processes: (1) mantle source inheritance and (2) meltingprocess enhancement. The subsolidus mantle compositional variationneeded to explain MORB chemistry and ridge axial depth variationrequires a deep isostatic compensation depth, probably in thetransition zone. Therefore, although ocean ridges are of shalloworigin, their working is largely controlled by deep processesas well as the effect of plate spreading rate variation at shallowlevels. KEY WORDS: mid-ocean ridges; mantle melting; magma differentiation; petrogenesis; MORB chemistry variation; ridge depth variation; global correlations; mantle compositional variation; mantle source density variation; mantle potential temperature variation; isostatic compensation     

康定杂岩Rb-Sr、Sm-Nd同位素系统及其意义

通过对康定—冕宁地区出露的英云闪长岩、黑云角闪斜长片麻岩、角闪变粒岩全岩及其中所分离出的角闪石、黑云母、斜长石、钾长石的Rb-Sr、Sm-Nd同位素的系统测定,结合岩石的锆石U-Pb年龄结果,确定这些变质杂岩由于经历了复杂的形成过程与变质历史,Rb-Sr、Sm-Nd同位素体系难以确定其结晶年龄。由单矿物与全岩Rb-Sr、Sm-Nd体系拟合的~700 M a的等时线年龄反映了角闪岩相-高角闪岩相的变质作用年龄。Sm-Nd同位素体系由于在变质作用过程中的部分开放性,很容易给出无意义的较老的混合年龄。康定杂岩结晶后并没有经历麻粒岩相变质作用,区域上所含的麻粒岩透镜体可能是新元古代(773~721 M a)期间由Rod in ia超大陆裂解产生的新生洋壳向扬子克拉通陆块俯冲消减过程的变质产物。俯冲到一定深度后,由于板片被拉断,软流圈上涌导致变质洋壳板片岩石、先前底侵变质的镁铁质岩石及扬子陆块长英质基底岩石发生部分熔融,以镁铁质岩石熔融产生的熔浆为主(>70%),与长英质基底岩石熔融产生的熔浆混合形成w(Na2O)/w(K2O)>1的TTG组合。     

再论南岭侏罗纪“铝质”A型花岗岩的成因及其对古地温线的制约

对南岭地区侏罗纪4个典型"铝质"A型花岗岩岩基——柯树北、寨背、西山和南昆山的成因分析表明:柯树北、寨背岩基中的低分异花岗岩SiO2≈70%,A/CNK<1.1,CaO≥1%,高Zr、Ba含量,是下地壳部分熔融产物;而SiO2含量较高者由低分异花岗岩岩浆通过分离结晶演化而来。西山花岗质火山-侵入杂岩也是下地壳部分熔融产物。南昆山花岗岩为高硅花岗岩,贫Zr、低Ba、Sr和Eu/Eu*值,但具有高的Nb、Ga、REE含量和Ga/Al比值,在Whalen等(1987)图解中地球化学参数落在A型花岗岩区域内。碱性玄武岩浆分离结晶的成岩模式无法解释南昆山岩基较大的体积、均一的成分和低的Nb/Ta比值。详细的成岩分析表明,南昆山花岗岩可能是先期侵入的(幔源)碱性正长岩在富水和相对低温低压条件下发生部分熔融的产物。由这些"铝质"A型花岗岩的熔融温压条件估算得出热流值达到80~95mWm-2的南岭地区侏罗纪古地温线。由古地温线推算出的岩石圈厚度45~75km。南岭侏罗纪高热流背景及其对应的花岗质岩浆活动可能与后碰撞造山阶段岩石圈地幔拆沉或被"热侵蚀"有关,但并不一定意味着岩石圈伸展的大地构造环境。

琼西抱板群变质沉积岩地球化学研究

琼西中元古代抱板群变质沉积岩可分为白云母石英片岩组和石英二云母片岩组，其原岩为砂岩质泥质沉积岩夹火山物质。白云母石英片岩组和石英二云母片岩组在地球化学成分上的差异是原始沉积化学分异作用的结果。对主元素、微量元素（含稀土元素）及Sm-Nd同位素的综合研究表明，海南岛存在古元古代或更早的古老基底，抱板群变质沉积岩一部分来源于成熟度较低的古老地壳物质，另一部分来源于含地幔火山物质较多的初生地壳，或与研究区大规模造山运动、构造－岩浆活动所伴生的地幔物质加入有关。初步研究显示，琼西抱板群变质沉积岩可能是造山带岛弧和活动大陆边缘区（扩张弧后或弧间盆地）大地构造环境下的沉积产物。     

云南保山卧牛寺组玄武岩成因：地幔柱活动的产物？

保山卧牛寺组玄武岩为低钛拉斑玄武岩，具有大陆板内玄武岩的特征，总体与蛾眉山玄武岩中的低钛玄武岩相似。其分异程度较高，富集大离子亲石元素和高场强元素，有明显的Nb、Ta负异常，Zr和Hf正异常，Eu无异常或弱负异常。该玄武岩由3个大喷发旋回形成3个岩石单元，其中下部早期第1单元由致密块状玄武岩、斜斑玄武岩、杏仁玄武岩和凝灰岩组成，第2和第3单元中见少量橄榄玄武岩和粒玄岩以及辉绿岩脉。有较高的^86Sr／^87Sr值(0．705966—0．706657)、较低的^143Nd／^144Nd值(0．512212—0．512283)，εNd(t)多为负值，源区为介于EMI和EMⅡ端员之间的富集岩石圈地幔。上述地球化学和同位素特征均可与蛾眉山玄武岩下部低钛拉斑玄武岩对比，表明该期岩浆作用可能同为地幔柱活动的产物，并暗示蛾眉山大火成岩省向西有很大的延伸。     

Carboniferous Post-collisional Rift Volcanism of the Tianshan Mountains, Northwestern China

The Tianshan Carboniferous post-collisional rift volcanic rocks occur in northwestern China as a large igneous province. Based on petrogeochemical data, the Tianshan Carboniferous post-collisional rift basic lavas can be classified into two major magma types: (1) the low-Ti/Y type situated in the eastern-central Tianshan area, which exhibits low Ti/Y (<500), Ce/Yb (<15) and SiO2 (43-55%), and relatively high Fe2O3T (6.4-11.5%); (2) the high-Ti/Y type situated in the western Tianshan area, which has high Ti/Y (>500), Ce/Yb (>11) and SiO2 (49-55%), and relatively low Fe2O3T (5.8-7.8%). Elemental data suggest that chemical variations of the low-Ti/Y and high-Ti/Y lavas cannot be explained by fractional crystallization from a common parental magma. The Tianshan Carboniferous basic lavas originated most likely from an OIB-like asthenospheric mantle source (87Sr/86Sr(t) ≈ 0.703-0.705, εNd(t) ≈ +4 to +7). The crustal contamination and continental lithospheric mantle have also contributed significantly to the formation of the basic lavas of the Tianshan Carboniferous post-collisional rift. The silicic lavas were probably generated by partial melting of the crust. The data of this study show that spatial petrogeochemical variations exist in the Carboniferous post-collisional rift volcanics province in the Tianshan region. Occurrence of the thickest volcanics dominated by tholeiitic lavas may imply that the center of the mantle-melting anomaly (mantle plume) was in the eastern Tianshan area at that time. The basic volcanic magmas in the eastern Tianshan area were generated by a relatively high degree of partial melting of the mantle source around the spinel-garnet transition zone, whereas the alkaline basaltic lavas are of the dominant magma type in the western Tianshan area, which were generated by a low degree of partial melting of the mantle source within the stable garnet region, thus the basic lavas of the western Tianshan area might have resulted from relatively thick lithosphere and low geothermal gradient.
