大别山榴辉岩带片麻岩的锆石拉曼光谱研究

我们对来自大别山榴辉岩带11个片麻岩样品的锆石进行了拉曼光谱研究,这些研究集中在1008和356cm~(-1)峰和它们的半高宽上。依据阴极发光(CL)图像特征,锆石可分为三种结构类型:(1)核边结构,由一个老的岩浆锆石核和一个变质边构成,也可由两期变质锆石构成;(2)CL 不均匀强反差发光的锆石,这些锆石的一些部位明显发亮,这些发亮的部分是在早期岩浆锆石发育而来的;(3)CL 总体是均匀的或弱反差发光锆石。在 CL 图像的基础上,我们用拉曼扫描的方法分析了这3类不同结构的锆石。1008和356cm~(-1)峰显示了相同或相似的图像特征,而它们的半高宽图像有相同或相似的图像特征。峰和半高宽图像可以有一定差异。核边结构的和 CL 不均匀强反差发光的锆石的 CL 结构也反映在拉曼光谱的图像上,半高宽的图像更相似于锆石的 CL 图像。CL 总体是均匀的或弱反差发光锆石的拉曼光谱图像通常也是相对均匀的。11个样品锆石的1008cm~(-1)峰位值和它的半高宽落在放射破坏趋势上,我们认为早期继承的锆石在超高压变质过程中发生了完全退火和重结晶。一粒锆石拉曼光谱图像的结构反映的是不同的部分蜕晶化程度的差异,由于有相同的蜕晶化历史,这些部分的蜕晶化程度与这些部分的 U 和 Th 含量应该是正相关的。     

基于机器学习的锆石成因分类研究

锆石是在自然界中多种温压条件下能够稳定保存,并记录原岩年龄信息的副矿物。锆石微量元素能完整记录地质演化过程信息。通过微量元素分析锆石成因的研究已久,通常利用Th-U图解和La_N-(Sm/La)_N图解等二元图解对锆石进行分类研究。然而,随着锆石研究的深入,以及二元图解无法呈现数据高维度信息的局限性,传统图解已经不能满足对锆石类型进行准确判别,且对已知类型的锆石出现判定偏差。因此,本文将地质大数据与机器学习相结合,训练出高维度锆石成因分类器。文中收集了3 498条不同成因类型的锆石微量元素数据,并通过测试和运用随机森林、支持向量机、人工神经网络和k近邻等4种机器学习算法,最终得出准确率为86.8%的线性支持向量机锆石成因分类器,用于锆石类型的判定与预测。这项工作为锆石分类研究提供了更高维度的判别手段,极大提高了微量元素分析成因结果的精度。将锆石微量元素数据与机器学习方法相结合,是大数据分析与机器学习技术在地球化学研究中的积极探索。     

锆石微量元素及其揭示的深部过程

近十年来对锆石研究已从早期的U-Pb放射性同位素定年和锆石同位素分析,发展到大量研究锆石的微量元素。锆石微量元素不仅可以作为锆石Ti温度计估算岩浆温度,也可以用来识别锆石及其母岩的岩石类型和成因,区分岩浆熔体或者流体控制的岩浆作用、变质作用、成矿作用等深部作用过程。文中在归纳总结岩浆锆石、变质锆石、热液锆石、碎屑锆石等不同类型锆石的微量元素成分基础上,以青藏高原碰撞后超钾质岩石中产出的锆石为例,系统介绍了超钾质岩石中各类锆石的结构、年龄和微量元素特征,并应用于解释超钾质岩石成因、岩浆源区成分、岩浆演化和上部地壳物质的混染、下地壳加厚和高原隆升之间的关系。     

变质岩中锆石U—Pb计时问题评述——兼论大别造山带锆石定年

锆石是U－Pb计时的首选对象，对于地质历史复杂的变质岩地区，如大别碰撞造山带的年代学研究，具有不可替代的重要性。变质岩中锆石经历了Pb的扩散丢失作用；晶格损伤导致的蜕晶化作用；增生－混合作用和重结晶作用。这些过程对锆石计时的准确性和有效性带来不同程度的影响。为了使测定的年龄有确定的地质意义，在进行锆石U－Pb定年前，必需对锆石进行成因矿物学和矿物内部结构研究，特别是阴极荧光和背散射电子成像研究，通过内部结构特征确定锆石成因过程。在化学U－Pb法定年时注意普通铅校正和^204Pb测定值对年龄的影响，尽量选择单一成因锆石。特别强调在大别造山带年代学中引入锆石微区离子探针定年技术。     

超基性岩中锆石年龄的特征和意义——以西南天山UHP蛇纹岩中锆石U-Pb年龄为例

超基性岩本身难以生长锆石的特性,使得研究其中的锆石需要特别谨慎。超基性岩中的锆石虽然具有多解性,但是锆石也携带了很多演化信息。产出不同地质背景的超基性岩,其中的锆石特征不同。本文总结现有的研究实例表明:(1)经历高温高压变质作用的石榴橄榄岩通常通过交代作用获得锆石,且锆石能够记录峰期变质时代,其中的继承锆石较少,可能在高温高压条件下,继承锆石发生分解重结晶;(2)大洋蛇绿岩型超基性岩和地幔岩捕掳体中通常具有年龄分布很广的锆石年龄特征,锆石年龄峰值通常与区域上构造事件相吻合,为捕掳晶锆石。接下来本文以西南天山超高压(UHP)蛇纹岩为例,对其锆石年龄进行解释。西南天山蛇纹岩为经历过超高压变质作用的大洋蛇绿岩型超基性岩,2个蛇纹岩样品中锆石的阴极发光图像分析和SIMS U-Pb定年分析结果显示,西南天山UHP蛇纹岩中的锆石包含捕掳晶锆石和变质锆石,捕掳晶锆石的年龄为2.1~1.0Ga,对应该区变泥质岩中碎屑锆石记录的年龄峰值。409~537Ma可能代表了蛇纹岩原岩结晶时代。区域上的变质压力峰期年龄(~320Ma)在蛇纹岩中没有记录,仅有1颗锆石记录了309±5Ma的近峰期时代。270~155Ma的退变质时代在西南天山蛇纹岩中出现较广,这与榴辉岩中出现的退变年龄相吻合,代表了折返过程中较为普遍的后期热液事件。基于对超基性岩中锆石特征的初步了解,结合西南天山蛇纹岩的研究实例,认为通过研究锆石的年代学,结合锆石矿物化学、包体矿物学、同位素地球化学等特征,不仅可以提供年代学信息,还可以对超基性岩的来源和演化过程进行解析。     

北苏鲁威海地区超基性岩的原岩形成时代和超高压变质时代

超基性岩是苏鲁超高压变质地体中一类特殊且十分重要的岩石类型,它们通常呈规模不一的块状、条带状或不规则透镜状 (体) 赋存于区域大面积出露的花岗质片麻岩中。锆石中矿物包体激光拉曼测试、阴极发光图像分析和不同性质锆石LA-ICP-MS U-Pb定年等综合研究结果表明,北苏鲁威海地区含橄榄石辉石岩 (样品W1和W2) 中锆石的成因十分复杂,可进一步划分3种不同类型锆石。其中第一类锆石呈自形-半自形晶,阴极发光图像显示清晰的岩浆结晶环带,矿物包体主要为Ol+Cpx+Ap, 记录的²⁰⁷Pb/²⁰⁶Pb年龄为1835~1845Ma,应代表含橄榄石辉石岩的原岩形成时代;第二类为变质重结晶锆石,呈半自形-他形晶,阴极发光图像显示模糊的岩浆结晶环带,矿物包体与第一类完全一致,记录的²⁰⁶Pb/²³⁸U年龄变化范围大,为250~784Ma之间,表明部分继承性岩浆结晶锆石明显受到后期岩浆-变质热事件的影响而发生不完全重结晶和Pb丢失,进而使其记录的年龄相对偏新;第三类锆石呈他形晶,为典型的变质锆石,阴极发光图像十分均匀,矿物包体相对少见,主要为Grt+Cpx,记录的²⁰⁶Pb/²³⁸U年龄为230~234Ma, 且与苏鲁地体榴辉岩及其围岩中含柯石英锆石微区记录的超高压变质年龄 (225~235Ma) 十分一致,应代表含橄榄石辉石岩的峰期超高压变质时代。超基性岩中超高压变质锆石的准确识别表明苏鲁地体在峰期超高压变质阶段的确存在流体,流体的存在对超高压变质锆石的形成起着至关重要的作用。该项研究不仅准确厘定北苏鲁威海地区超基性岩的原岩形成时代和超高压变质时代,而且对于深入探讨苏鲁-大别超高压地体流体行为、演化规律及其水-岩相互作用机理具有重要的科学意义。     

锆石成因矿物学与锆石微区定年综述

锆石是岩浆岩、变质岩和石英脉型金矿床中的一种常见副矿物,对锆石成因类型的准确判断是正确理解锆石U-Pb年龄意义的关键.本文中笔者对不同成因类型锆石的判别标志及年龄意义进行系统的总结,并认为将锆石的阴极发光图像(CL)、背散射电子图像(BSE)、痕量元素组成及矿物包裹体特征的研究相结合是进行锆石成因鉴定的有效方法.近年来同位素质谱技术的发展使得人们对同一锆石颗粒内部不同成因类型的锆石晶域进行原位年龄测定成为可能.通过微区原位定年技术,能够给出有关寄主岩石的地质演化历史等重要信息,这可以为地质过程的精细年代学格架的建立提供有效的证据.来自不同类型岩石中的锆石可能经历了Pb的扩散丢失作用、晶格损伤导致的蜕晶化作用以及变质重结晶作用.这些过程对锆石计时的准确性和有效性带来了不同程度的影响.为了对测定锆石年龄的地质意义进行合理解释,在进行锆石U-Pb定年前,必需对锆石进行成因矿物学和矿物内部结构的深入研究,特别是阴极发光和背散射电子成像研究,通过内部结构特征确定锆石的成因类型和形成环境.笔者认为,组成单一的岩浆锆石是理想的U-Pb定年对象,变质重结晶锆石域常是重结晶锆石和继承晶质锆石的混合区,容易给出混合年龄,只有变质增生锆石和完全变质重结晶锆石才能给出准确的变质时代,而从继承锆石中鉴别出的热液锆石可以获得可靠的流体活动时间.     

崆岭杂岩中角闪岩类的年代学和地球化学

通过崆岭杂岩中角闪岩类的年代学和地球化学研究,以揭示黄陵结晶基底的形成及演化。崆岭杂岩主要由太古代的TTG片麻岩和角闪岩类岩石,以及早元古代孔兹岩系组成,角闪岩类以围岩或包体的形式存在于TTG片麻岩的周围和内部。角闪岩类围岩的全岩Sm-Nd等时线年龄为2 998.9 Ma,原生岩浆锆石的U-Pb年龄为3 013 Ma,均代表角闪岩类原岩的形成时间,且与包体状斜长角闪岩原岩的年龄(3.0 Ga)相同。说明以围岩或包体存在的角闪岩类,其原岩的形成年龄均为3.0 Ga。微量元素和Nd同位素地球化学特征指示,角闪岩类原岩形成的构造环境为大陆初始裂谷环境。角闪岩类岩石中变质新生锆石的U-Pb年龄为2 043 Ma,指示黄陵地区存在第Ⅲ期(2.1～1.9 Ga)角闪岩相热变质事件,且该期热变质作用将松散的陆源碎屑岩等变质为孔兹岩系,从而构成早元古代结晶基底,并与晚太古代稳定陆块焊结在一起,最终完成整个黄陵结晶基底的形成。     

Trace elements in various genetic types of zircon from syenite of the Sakharjok massif,Kola Peninsula

Zircon is an accessory mineral in alkali and nepheline syenites of the Neoarchean Sakharjok intrusion. Zircon in association with britholite and pyrochlore forms orebodies in nepheline syenite of this massif. Zircon crystals reveal an inhomogeneous zonal, occasionally mosaic structure comprising fragments and zones related to magmatic, hydrothermal, and metamorphic stages of mineral formation. Magmatic zircon differs by a high REE concentration (1769 ppm, on average), distinct Ce maximum (Ce/Ce* = 105, on average), and Eu minimum (Eu/Eu* = 0.19) as compared with other genetic types. No correlation between these parameters has been established. Hydrothermal zircon is characterized by a low Ce/Ce* ratio (0.7–3.9 and 2.0, on average), elevated LREE contents, and lowered ratios of MREE and HREE to La. Metamorphic zircon differs from magmatic by a sharply lower REE concentration (385 ppm, on average), lowered Th/U (0.32) and Ce/Ce* (31.9, on average) ratios. In the Ce/Ce* versus MREE/La plot, the lowest values of these ratios are typical of hydrothermal zircon, while the intermediate and maximum values are inherent to metamorphic and magmatic zircons, respectively. These variations make it possible to delineate reliable fields of their compositions. The distribution of data points in the above-mentioned plots shows that REE chemical activity depends on the redox conditions of zircon crystallization.     

辽宁后仙峪硼矿区古元古代电气石岩: 锆石特征及SHRIMP定年

为了确定辽东硼矿含硼岩系中电气石岩的形成时代, 对后仙峪硼矿区电气石岩首次进行了锆石SHRIMP U-Pb年龄测定.阴极发光图像显示, 锆石具核-边结构, 锆石核部多具振荡环带, 为高Th/U值的岩浆碎屑锆石; 锆石边部无明显结构变化, 为变质成因.岩浆碎屑锆石和变质锆石的年龄分别为2 171~2 175 Ma和1 894~1 906 Ma.结合野外地质和岩相学研究, 认为后仙峪硼矿区电气石岩原岩为古元古代克拉通裂谷环境中源于地壳再循环组分混染的亏损地幔的中酸性岩浆活动引发海底喷流作用的产物, 其原岩形成时代为古元古代中期(2 171~2 175 Ma), 并在稍后(1 894~1 906 Ma)遭受变质作用叠加改造.      

Revealing hidden structures: The application of cathodoluminescence and back-scattered electron imaging to dating zircons from lower crustal xenoliths

The use of cathodoluminescence (CL) and/or back-scattered electron (BSE) imaging techniques with in situ ion probe analyses of zircons can help unravel complex crustal histories of metamorphic rocks that otherwise might remain elusive. Using these techniques we have imaged zircons from three lower crustal xenolith suites that have previously been dated by SHRIMP (sensitive high-resolution ion microprobe). In all three cases, the zircons are featureless in transmitted light but CL and BSE reveal internal structures that correlate with distinct growth events. Generally, CL and BSE images reveal similar structures, with CL showing finer detail. Neither imaging technique is capable of delineating all growth features in every sample and the best results are obtained using a combination of the two techniques. Igneous cores in zircons commonly emit a different color CL emission. In many cases zoning in the cores is truncated, indicating that the zircons either spent time in the supracrustal environment after their initial crystallization and prior to the granulite facies event (s) or that part of the core zircon was resorbed during the subsequent metamorphic event. Metamorphic rims, when present, are commonly 10 to 30 μm thick, and are nearly always unzoned and featureless.

Igneous cores and metamorphic overgrowths commonly have distinctive CL emission spectra and trace element concentrations. However, the CL spectra can only be used to qualify chemical differences, as a linear relationship has not been shown to exist between CL intensity and trace element concentration in natural zircons. In many cases the Hf, Y, P, U and the heavy rare-earth elements (HREEs) concentrations can be correlated to igneous and metamorphic growth using a combination of CL and BSE imaging techniques and in situ trace element analyses with either the electron microprobe or PIXE (particle induced X-ray emission).     

中国大陆科学钻探工程主孔斜长角闪岩中锆石的SHRIMPU-Pb定年及其地质意义

矿物包裹体激光拉曼测试、阴极发光图像分析和SHILIMPU—Pb定年综合研究结果表明,中国大陆科学钻探主孔斜长角闪岩（样品G12）中的锆石可划分为2种类型：第一类颗粒粗大,舍有大量矿物包裹体和杂质;第二类颗粒细小,舍有少量矿物包裹体且十分干净。第一类锆石具有明显的双层结构。核部阴极发光图像显示典型的岩浆结晶环带,相应的矿物包裹体为单斜辉石（Cpx）＋斜长石（P1）＋磷灰石（Ap）±石英（Qtz）,表明其寄主岩石的原岩为基性岩浆岩;边部阴极发光图像十分均匀,保存柯石英（Coe）＋石榴子石（Grt）＋绿辉石（Omp）＋多硅白云母（Phe）＋磷灰石（Ap）等标志性超高压包裹体矿物组合,记录的变质温压条件为T=732-839℃、p=3．0-4．0GPa,表明该类变质增生锆石微区形成于超高压变质阶段。第二类锆石阴极发光图像十分均匀,发光性明显增强,保存角闪石（Amp）＋斜长石（P1）等标志性角闪岩相包裹体矿物组合,记录的变质温压条件为T=612-698℃、p=0．76-1．05GPa,表明该类锆石形成于后期角闪岩相退变质阶段。SHRIMPU-Pb定年结果显示,继承性岩浆结晶锆石核部记录的^206Pb／灿的年龄为685-650Ma．表明其原岩形成于新元古代;舍柯石英等超高压矿物包裹体的边部记录的^206Pb／^238U年龄为243-225Ma,表明超高压变质时代应归属于晚三叠世。第二类舍低压包裹体矿物的锆石微区记录的^206Pb／^238U年龄为219-210Ma．应代表后期角闪岩相退变质作用的时代。上述研究结果表明,苏鲁地体斜长角闪岩的原岩在晚三叠世深俯冲至上地幔100-120km的地幔深处并经历了超高压变质作用。约15Ma之后,这些超高压岩石抬升到约25km的中部地壳,并经历了后期角闪岩相退变质作用的改造。相应的折返速率为0．57cm／y。     

U-Pb ages and Hf isotope compositions of detrital zircons from the sandstone in the early cretaceous Wawukuang formation in the Jiaolai Basin,Shandong Province and its tectonic implicationsEI北大核心CSCD

LA-ICP-MS U-Pb dating and in situ Hf isotope analysis were carried out for the detrital zircons to constrain the depositional age and provenance of the Wawukuang Formation, which is believed as the earliest unit of the Laiyang Group in the Jiaolai Basin, and its implications. Most of these detrital zircons from the feldspar quartz sandstone in the Wawukuang Formation are magmatic in origin, which are euhedral-subhedral and display oscillatory zoning in CL images; whereas few Late Triassic detrital zircons are metamorphic in origin and structureless in CL images. U-Pb isotopic dating of 82 zircon grains yields age populations at ca. 129 Ma, 158 Ma, 224 Ma, 253 Ma, 461 Ma, 724 Ma, 1851 Ma and 2456 Ma. U-Pb dating and Hf isotopic results indicate that: 1) the Wawukuang Formation deposited during the Early Cretaceous (129-106 Ma); 2) the detrital zircons with the ages of 1851 Ma and 2456 Ma mainly sourced from the Precambrian basement rocks of the North China Craton; the Neoproterozoic (729-721 Ma) magmatic zircons and the Late Triassic (226-216 Ma) metamorphic zircons sourced from the Su-Lu terrane; The Late Paleozoic detrital zircons could source from the Late Paleozoic igneous rocks in the northern margin of the North China Craton; the Late Triassic (231-223 Ma) magmatic zircons and the 158-129 Ma zircons sourced from the coeval igneous rocks in the Jiaobei and Jiaodong; 3) the deposition age and provenance of the Jiaolai Basin are different from those of the Hefei Basin; 4) the recognition of clastic sediments from the Su-Lu terrane in the Wawukuang Formation suggests that the Su-Lu terrane was under denudation in the Early Cretaceous. ©, 2015, Science Press.

Zircon U-Pb Age, Trace Element, and Hf Isotope Evidence for Paleoproterozoic Granulite-Facies Metamorphism and Archean Crustal Remnant in the Dabie Orogen

Zircon U-Pb age, trace elements, and Hf isotopes were determined for granulite and gneiss at Huaugtuling (黄土岭), which is hosted by ultrahigh-pressure metamorphic rocks in the Dabie(大别) orogen, east-central China. Cathodolumineseence (CL) images reveal core-rim structure for most zircons in the granulite. The cores show oscillatory zoning, relatively high Th/U and 176 Lu/177 Hf ratios, and high rare earth element (HREE)-enriched pattern, consistent with magmatic origin. They gave a weighted mean 207 Pb/206 Pb age of (2 766±9) Ma, dating magma emplacement of protolith. The rims are characterized by sector ur planar zoning, low Th/U and 176 Lu/177 Hf ratios, negative Euanomalies and flat HREE patterns, consistent with their formation under granulite-facies metamorphicconditions. Zircon U-Pb dating yields an age of (2 029±13) Ma, which is interpreted as a record ofmetamorphic event during the assembly of the supercontinent Columbia. The gneiss has a protolith ageof (1982±14) Ma, which is similar to the zircon U-Pb age for the granulite-facies metamorphism,suggesting complementary processes to granulite-facies metamorphism and partial melting. A fewinherited cores with igneous characteristics have 207 pb/206 Pb ages of approximately 3.53, 3.24, and 2.90Ga, respectively, suggesting the presence of Mesoarchean to Paleoarchean crustal remnants. A fewTriassic and Cretaceous metamorphic ages were obtained, suggesting the influences by the Triassiccontinental collision and postcollisional collapse in response to the Cretaceous extension. Comparingwith abundant occurrence of Triassic metamorphic zircons in ultrahigh-pressure eclogite and granitehydrous melt is evident for zircon growth in theHuangtuling granulite and gneiss during thecontinental collision. The magmatic protolithzircons from the granulite show a large variationin 176 Hf/177 Hf ratios from 0.280 809 to 0.281 289,corresponding to era(t) values of-7.3 to 6.3 andHf model ages of 2.74 to 3.34 Ga. The 2.90 Gainherited zircons show the similar Hf isotope features. These indicate that both growth of juvenile crust and reworking of ancient crust took place at the time of zircon formation. It is inferred that the Archean basement of the Yangtze block occurs in thenorth as the Dabie orogen, with ca. 2.90-2.95 Ga and 2.75-2.80 Ga as two major episodes of crustalformation.     

Host rock compositional controls on zircon trace element signatures in metabasites from the Austroalpine basement

Zircon populations of Neoproterozoic and early Paleozoic age occur in metabasites of a high-pressure amphibolite-facies unit of the Austroalpine basement south of the Tauern Window. The host rocks for these zircons are eclogitic amphibolites of N-MORB-type character, hornblende gneisses with volcanic-arc basalt signature, and alkaline within-plate-basalt amphibolites. Bulk rock magmatic trace element patterns were preserved during amphibolite-facies high-pressure and subsequent high-temperature events, as well as a greenschist-facies overprint. Positive Ce and negative Eu anomalies and enrichment of HREE in normalized zircon REE patterns, as analysed by LA-ICP-MS, are typical for an igneous origin of these zircon suites. Zircon Y is well correlated to HREE, Ce, Th, U, Nb, and Ta and allows discrimination of compositional fields for each host rock type. Low Th/U ratios are correlated to low Y and HREE abundances in zircon from low bulk Th/U host rocks. This is likely a primary igneous characteristic that cannot be attributed to metamorphic recrystallization. Variations of zircon/host rock element ratios confirm that ionic radii and charges control abundances of many trace elements in zircon. The trace element ratios—presented as mineral/melt distribution coefficients—indicate a selectively inhibited substitution of Zr and Si by HREE and Y in zircon which crystallized from a N-MORB melt. Correlated host rock and zircon trace element concentrations indicate that the metabasite zircons are not xenocrysts but crystallized from mafic melts, represented by the actual host rocks.     

火山岩锆石产状及痕量元素对成因的约束

为了探索火山岩产出锆石的成因属性,用CL图像及LA-ICP-MS原位分析痕量元素数据对山西临县紫金山碱性杂岩体内火山喷出相岩石是否产出锆石进行了研究.结果显示：响岩质、粗面质火山角砾岩（爆发相）均没有结晶出锆石,紫红色与灰白色响岩（溢流相）、粗面斑岩（火山颈侵出相）产出少量结构复杂的捕获锆石.对这些锆石进行LA-ICP-MS原位分析,表面年龄呈5段分布,分别为太古宙、古元古代、晚古生代、印支期与燕山期.年龄数据大多数与燕山期岩浆活动年代不符,呈现出大多数为捕获锆石的数据结构特征.CL图像显示大多数具有捕获锆石的岩浆熔蚀及后期改造迹象.痕量元素显示非碱性岩浆结晶的复杂成因特征,稀土元素显示多期次岩浆结晶、改造特征.结果表明：山西临县紫金山杂岩体内爆发相岩浆温度高,Zr元素含量不饱和,不结晶锆石同时将捕获锆石熔化;溢流相与火山颈相岩浆温度稍低,Zr元素含量仅达到饱和临界点,捕获锆石仅发生轻度熔蚀,而没有结晶自生锆石.     

新疆东准噶尔金水泉金矿床地质特征、成矿时代及其地质意义

新疆奇台县金水泉金矿床是东准噶尔卡拉麦里成矿带上一个典型的造山型金矿床,产于清水-苏吉泉大断裂和卡拉麦里深断裂之间的次级断裂带中,其成矿时代尚无确切的年代学资料。通过阴极发光(CL)、背散射图像(BSE)和矿物包体确定含金石英脉中的锆石种类,进行LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb同位素定年。捕获锆石主要呈柱状、长柱状,振荡环带清晰,粒径较热液锆石大,包括岩浆锆石和变质锆石;~(206)Pb/~(238)U年龄为365~418Ma、265Ma。热液锆石呈短柱状、棱角状、不规则状、双锥状,常含继承锆石内核,内部包裹体为磷灰石或含金磷灰石,发育不明显的波缓状振荡环带或无振荡环带;~(206)Pb/~(238)U年龄加权平均值为314.9±3.2Ma,指示金矿化作用发生于晚石炭世早期碰撞造山向造山后伸展转变的构造环境。成矿时代晚于赋矿围岩姜巴斯套组的年龄(约343Ma),与总结区域构造演化规律所限定的时间范围(320~310Ma)吻合。综合研究认为,金水泉金矿床成矿作用可划分为350~320Ma造山阶段含金流体生成、315Ma挤压-伸展转换阶段金迁移就位、二叠纪陆内变形阶段金矿体破碎变形3个阶段。     

不同成因锆石阴极发光及微量元素特征:以新疆阿尔泰地区花岗岩和伟晶岩为例

新疆阿勒泰可可托海地区出露大量花岗岩和伟晶岩脉,利用阴极发光显微照相(CL)、电子探针背散射(BSE)和激光剥蚀电感耦合等离子质谱技术(LA-ICP-MS),观察和分析岩石中锆石的内部结构、稀土元素及Th,U含量后结果表明:该区花岗岩锆石具振荡环带和强烈的阴极发光特征,Th/U比值较高(Th/U=0.16～0.99),轻稀土亏损、重稀土富集,具较大的Ce正异常,为典型岩浆成因锆石。伟晶岩(KP-08-11)锆石为热液锆石,不具振荡环带和阴极发光,具低的Th/U比值(0.01～0.13),强烈富集稀土元素,尤其是轻稀土元素较花岗岩锆石高一个数量级,Ce的正异常相对较低。伟晶岩(KP3-08-1)锆石为变质重结晶锆石,Th/U比值分布范围较广(0.01～0.78),强烈亏损稀土元素,稀土元素配分模式存在显著的"REE四分组效应"。微量元素特征表明,伟晶岩(KP-08-11)锆石可能结晶自富U贫Th的残余岩浆流体,而伟晶岩(KP3-08-1)的锆石经历了蜕晶质化和变质重结晶作用,但依然保持了共存伟晶岩熔体的微量元素特征。     

Response of zircon to melting and metamorphism in deep arc crust,Fiordland (New Zealand): implications for zircon inheritance in cordilleran granites

The Cretaceous Mount Daniel Complex (MDC) in northern Fiordland, New Zealand was emplaced as a 50 m-thick dyke and sheet complex into an active shear zone at the base of a Cordilleran magmatic arc. It was emplaced below the 20–25 km-thick, 125.3?±?1.3 Ma old Western Fiordland Orthogneiss (WFO) and is characterized by metre-scale sheets of sodic, low and high Sr/Y diorites and granites. 119.3?±?1.2 Ma old, pre-MDC lattice dykes and 117.4?±?3.1 Ma late-MDC lattice dykes constrain the age of the MDC itself. Most dykes were isoclinally folded as they intruded, but crystallised within this deep-crustal, magma-transfer zone as the terrain cooled and was buried from 25 to 50 km (9–14 kbar), based on published P-T estimated from the surrounding country rocks. Zircon grains formed under these magmatic/granulite facies metamorphic conditions were initially characterized by conservatively assigning zircons with oscillatory zoning as igneous and featureless rims as metamorphic, representing 54% of the analysed grains. Further petrological assignment involved additional parameters such as age, morphology, Th/U ratios, REE patterns and Ti-in-zircon temperature estimates. Using this integrative approach, assignment of analysed grains to metamorphic or igneous groupings improved to 98%. A striking feature of the MDC is that only?~?2% of all igneous zircon grains reflect emplacement, so that the zircon cargo was almost entirely inherited, even in dioritic magmas. Metamorphic zircons of MDC show a cooler temperature range of 740–640 °C, reflects the moderate ambient temperature of the lower crust during MDC emplacement. The MDC also provides a cautionary tale: in the absence of robust field and microstructural relations, the igneous-zoned zircon population at 122.1?±?1.3 Ma, derived mostly from inherited zircons of the WFO, would be meaningless in terms of actual magmatic emplacement age of MDC, where the latter is further obscured by younger (ca. 114 Ma) metamorphic overgrowths. Thus, our integrative approach provides the opportunity to discriminate between igneous and metamorphic zircon within deep-crustal complexes. Also, without the tight field relations at Mt Daniel, the scatter beyond a statistically coherent group might be ascribed to the presence of “antecrysts”, but it is clear that the WFO solidified before the MDC was emplaced, and these older “igneous” grains are inherited. The bimodal age range of inherited igneous grains, dominated by ~?125 Ma and 350–320 Ma age clusters, indicate that the adjacent WFO and a Carboniferous metaigneous basement were the main sources of the MDC magmas. Mafic lenses, stretched and highly attenuated into wisps within the MDC and dominated by ~?124 Ma inherited zircons, are considered to be entrained restitic material from the WFO. A comparison with lower- and upper-crustal, high Sr/Y metaluminous granites elsewhere in Fiordland shows that zircon inheritance is common in the deep crust, near the source region, but generally much less so in coeval, shallow magma chambers (plutons). This is consistent with previous modelling on rapid zircon dissolution rates and high Zr saturation concentrations in metaluminous magmas. Accordingly, unless unusual circumstances exist, such as MDC preservation in the deep crust, low temperatures of magma generation, or rapid emplacement and crystallization at higher structural levels, information on zircon inheritance in upper crustal, Cordilleran plutons is lost during zircon dissolution, along with information on the age, nature and variety of the source material. The observation that dioritic magmas can form at these low temperatures (<?750 °C) also suggests that the petrogenesis of mafic rocks in the arc root might need to be re-assessed.     

湘东南中泥盆统石英砂砾岩物源分析及其大地构造意义
