硅质大火成岩省的形成机制及其与资源环境的关系

硅质大火成岩省是以流纹质熔结凝灰岩为主体的（>80vol.%）,覆盖面积大于105km2、体积大于2.5×105km3的巨型岩浆岩建造,多呈条带状产出在大陆边缘,可能与大陆裂解和相邻镁铁质大火成岩省密切相关;其形成时间相对镁铁质大火成岩省较长,可达~40Myr。岩石中有黑云母、角闪石等含水斑晶,多为钙碱性系列,具有从Ⅰ型向A型花岗质岩石过渡的地球化学特征。本文在前人工作的基础上,整理了五个主要硅质大火成岩省的样品数据,综合研究认为其形成是玄武质岩浆底侵（或地幔柱上升）,使得前期由于俯冲形成的富水下地壳重熔后经历不同程度分离结晶的结果。硅质大火成岩省的形成暗示深部有"隐伏的镁铁质大火成岩省",因为上部硅质岩浆的阻碍和富水地壳不易形成岩浆运移通道所以未能喷出,但这些镁铁质岩浆向上输送了大量的SO2气体。大规模的硅质岩浆活动一方面能够将这些SO2气溶胶送入平流层吸收太阳辐射,另一方面能够使海洋富铁后通过光合作用吸收大气中的CO2,从而导致全球降温。此外,硅质大火成岩省还是一个大型的热液成矿系统,形成大量的低硫化型贵金属浅成低温热液矿床,具有重要的经济意义。     

藏东南措美大火成岩省中OIB型镁铁质岩的全岩地球化学和锆石Hf同位素

西藏南东部新识别出来的措美大火成岩省的地幔柱头部物质成分尚未得到很好的约束。为探讨此问题,在全岩地球化学数据基础上,本文首次报道了藏东南措美大火成岩省中机布淌、打隆、措美和哲古错OIB型镁铁质岩的锆石Hf同位素和微量元素数据。本文报道的OIB型镁铁质岩包括碱性(组Ⅰ)和亚碱性(组Ⅱ)系列的辉长岩和辉绿岩,以岩墙或岩床的形式产出。这些镁铁质岩具有高的TiO₂(2.61%～4.07%)和P₂O₅(0.32%～0.51%)含量,富集轻稀土元素和高场强元素,地球化学特征类似于OIB。全岩微量元素地球化学指标显示组Ⅰ样品没有或很少受到地壳混染,组Ⅱ样品经历了较高程度的地壳混染。组Ⅰ中一件样品(JBT03-1)具有变化范围大的锆石ε_Hf(t)值(-4.8～+5.3),可能暗示其受到了地壳和/或岩石圈地幔物质的混染。本文结果表明锆石Hf同位素比全岩地球化学数据能够更为有效地识别基性岩浆是否受到地壳和/或岩石圈地幔物质混染。措美大火成岩省中的OIB型镁铁质岩样品(组Ⅰ和组Ⅱ),具有不同于俯冲带镁铁质岩和洋壳镁铁质岩的锆石稀土元素配分型式和锆石Ti温度,这可能是岩浆源区温度和成分不同的结果。综合考虑全岩地球化学和锆石Hf同位素指标,本文提出未受到地壳或岩石圈地幔混染的打隆镇辉长岩体(以组I中的DL01样品为代表)很可能代表了措美大火成岩省纯的地幔柱头部物质成分[⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr_(t)=0.7047,ε_Nd(t=+1.5,ε_Hf(t=+2.1～+5.7]。这些成分与代表白垩纪Kerguelen地幔柱头部物质的Site 1138和Bunbury Casuarina玄武岩非常相似,可能指示措美大火成岩省中的OIB型镁铁质岩本身就是Kerguelen地幔柱头部物质发生减压熔融的产物。     

大火成岩省的成矿效应

大火成岩省(LIPs)是地质历史上重大的地质事件,巨量的岩浆堆积形成了丰富的矿产资源.按照成矿作用与LIPs事件的关系,将其划分为两种类型:①成矿作用与LIPs事件直接相关,两者时间一致或者成矿作用稍晚,该类型矿床可以作为LIPs的组成部分;②成矿作用与LIPs事件在时间上有明显的间断,但与LIPs有间接的成因联系.与...     

中国东部燕山期大火成岩省:岩浆-构造-资源-环境效应

中国东部燕山期的大规模岩浆活动,即侏罗纪—白垩纪(150—100 Ma)的碱性流纹岩-碱性玄武岩-金伯利岩-钾镁煌斑岩-碳酸岩及其管道系统,分布于江南造山带内侧和郯庐断裂带南段以西的华北地台内,累积面积超过30万km2.该期短时限内大规模活动的岩浆事件代表了中国东部地质历史演化中的一次大火成岩省(LIP)事件,实质控制着中生代以来中国华北—扬子地台的构造格局变化、资源能源形成与地质环境变迁.晚侏罗世—早白垩世(150—100 Ma)的大火成岩省,是中生代中期古太平洋大火成岩省沿中国克拉通东部边缘活动的一部分,是包括昂通爪哇(Ongtong-Java)(Mahoney et al.,1993;Ingle and Coffin,2004)—中国东部在内的超级地幔柱上涌,在岩石圈板片对流,挤压地幔物质快速上升,引起陆域内长英质地壳物质大规模重熔的结果,形成:(1)髫髻山组—张家口组碱性流纹质-玄武质双峰式火山岩及其管道系统,与华北大规模金-多金属矿成矿作用密切相关;(2)辽宁瓦房店—山东蒙阴—安徽栏杆,湖南宁乡—贵州镇远一带的金伯利岩—钾镁煌斑岩±碳酸岩±基性超基性杂岩及其管道系统,与金刚石、金-铂族元素等成矿关系密切;(3)辽东—胶东半岛、南岭—滇黔桂交界地区的连片花岗岩,是硅质大火成岩省(SLIP)的管道系统(plumbing systems),与金刚石矿、金-铂族元素矿、钨锡铌钽矿、锂-钾-铷-铯-铀矿等,以及油气等战略性关键金属成矿关系密切.同时,巨型岩浆作用引发的富含钾、磷及稀土等微量元素的基岩形成优质土壤层对生态多样性的助益等有利和/或有害的环境效应,直接关系到地球家园的生态环境.因此,中国东部燕山期大火成岩省产生深刻的岩浆-构造-资源-环境效应.     

白垩纪大火成岩省与地幔对流

白垩纪事件是全球非常明显和重要的一次地质突发事件,包括洋壳的超巨量形成,地磁正超时达41Ma之久(124~83 Ma),海水温度大幅度升高,黑色页岩沉积和石油形成的大量增长,海平面的快速上升,大气CO2水平的急剧升高,以及伴生的生物灭绝事件等。中—新生代的大火成岩省与冈瓦纳超大陆的裂解伴生,是超级地幔热柱产生的结果,而与欧亚超大陆的形成伴生分散火成岩省,是超级冷地幔下降流的结果,两者的联合构成全地幔对流的格局。全地幔对流模型为白垩纪地质演化、生物演化和环境演化的突变提供地球深部过程的约束。     

峨眉山大火成岩省白马层状侵入体的成因

峨眉山大火成岩省与二叠纪晚期的峨眉山地幔柱作用有关。白马层状侵入体是峨眉山大火成岩省赋存超大型Fe-Ti-V氧化物矿床的镁铁-超镁铁质侵入体之一。白马侵入体橄榄辉长岩和橄长岩全岩Mg O与Cr、Ni的相关性表明白马母岩浆经历了较高程度的分离结晶作用。原始地幔标准化微量元素图解和球粒陨石标准化稀土元素图解总体具有显著的Sr、Eu和Ti正异常,Zr-Hf负异常;而Nb、Ta既有正异常,也有负异常,这些特征与岩石中磁铁矿、单斜辉石和斜长石等矿物的堆晶作用有关。(87Sr/86Sr)i=0.704232～0.704855,平均值为0.704706;εNd(t)=1.40～3.94,平均值为2.41。Sr-Nd同位素组成落于峨眉山苦橄岩和高钛玄武岩的范围内,混合模拟计算表明白马母岩浆经历了10%～30%硅质大理岩围岩的混染。因此,白马Fe-Ti-V氧化物矿床的形成受母岩浆的组成、分离结晶作用及大理岩围岩的混染等多种因素共同制约。     

大火成岩省研新进展

大火成岩省的含义是指连续的、体积庞大的火成岩(包括镁铁质和长英质火成岩)所构成的巨型岩浆岩建造。镁铁质大火成岩省可分为:大陆溢流玄武岩、火山被动陆缘、大洋高原玄武岩、大岩墙群和大层状侵入体。镁铁质大火成岩省是地幔柱岩浆活动的直接产物,一般与聚敛板块边界无关。长英质大火成岩省主要由酸性、中酸性熔结凝灰岩及与之有成因联系的花岗岩构成,与岩石圈伸展构造和玄武岩浆底侵作用有不可分割的联系。今后研究方向包括大火成岩省的形成与地幔动力学的联系以及它与大陆增生、大陆裂解和生物绝灭的关系。此外还包括大火成岩省与成矿作用研究     

南天山北部巴音布鲁克早古生代火成岩的地球化学特征与岩石成因

南天山北部上志留统巴音布鲁克组火山岩系以中基性喷出岩为主,并有辉长岩侵入,其矿物组合中都含有角闪石,岩层中爆发相火山碎屑岩极为发育。各种火山-侵入岩的LREE和LILE强烈富集、HFSE相对亏损,出现明显的Ta、Nb负异常,（La／Yb）N：2．92～5．21,Nh／La=0．22—0．33,具有岛弧岩浆岩的特征。zr／Nb=26～47、Hf／Ta=11．9—19．9,暗示其源区为类似于N—MORB的亏损地幔;高的Th、LREE含量和高于正常弧火山岩、低于洋岛玄武岩（OIB）的HFSE绝对丰度,较小的εNd（t）值（＋3．23～＋6．15）、较大的（^87Sr/^86Sr）。值（0．7044—0．7063）,εNd（t）与（^87Sr／^86Sr）。间呈明显的线性负相关关系,并且分别与LILE／HFSE之间呈负相关和正相关关系。上述特征反映出巴音布鲁克火成岩的岩石成因中既有俯冲洋壳板片流体-沉积物的加入,也有板片熔体组分的贡献,在地球化学上具有正常岛孤玄武岩（IAB）与富铌岛弧玄武岩（NEAB）之间过渡系列的特征。该套火成岩与中天山南缘蛇绿混杂岩带紧邻,地层时代也与南天山洋俯冲-消减时代相当,它应当是南天山洋盆于晚志留世时发生的俯冲-消减所引发的岛弧火山-岩浆作用的地质记录。     

The Okavango giant mafic dyke swarm (NE Botswana): its structural significance within the Karoo Large Igneous Province

The structural organization of a giant mafic dyke swarm, the Okavango complex, in the northern Karoo Large Igneous Province (LIP) of NE Botswana is detailed. This N110°E-oriented dyke swarm extends for 1500 km with a maximum width of 100 km through Archaean basement terranes and Permo-Jurassic sedimentary sequences. The cornerstone of the study is the quantitative analysis of N>170 (exposed) and N>420 (detected by ground magnetics) dykes evidenced on a ca. 80-km-long section lying in crystalline host-rocks, at high-angle to the densest zone of the swarm (Shashe area). Individual dykes are generally sub-vertical and parallel to the entire swarm. Statistical analysis of width data indicates anomalous dyke frequency (few data <5.0 m) and mean dyke thickness (high value of 17 m) with respect to values classically obtained from other giant swarms. Variations of mean dyke thicknesses from 17 (N110°E swarm) to 27 m (adjoining and coeval N70°E giant swarm) are assigned to the conditions hosting fracture networks dilated as either shear or pure extensional structures, respectively, in response to an inferred NNW–SSE extension. Both fracture patterns are regarded as inherited brittle basement fabrics associated with a previous (Proterozoic) dyking event. The Okavango N110°E dyke swarm is thus a polyphase intrusive system in which total dilation caused by Karoo dykes (estimated frequency of 87%) is 12.2% (6315 m of cumulative dyke width) throughout the 52-km-long projected Shashe section. Assuming that Karoo mafic dyke swarms in NE Botswana follow inherited Proterozoic fractures, as similarly applied for most of the nearly synchronous giant dyke complexes converging towards the Nuanetsi area, leads us to consider that the resulting triple junction-like dyke/fracture pattern is not a definitive proof for a deep mantle plume in the Karoo LIP.     

Nature of mantle source contributions and crystal differentiation in the petrogenesis of the 1.78 Ga mafic dykes in the central North China craton

Circa 1.78 Ga mafic dyke swarms and some coeval volcanic associations constitute a Large Igneous Province in the central North China craton. The 1st generation of dykes intruded at ca. 1780 Ma and is chemically delineated into 3 groups: the LT Group is gabbroic and has low-Fe–Ti contents, acting as parental magma; the NW Group is high in Fe–Ti-contents and doleritic with an iron-enriched trend; whereas the EW Group is doleritic to andesitic and crystallized from relict siliceous liquids with a silica-enriched trend. They have an EM-I type source and record integral magmatic processes. These include contamination of lithospheric material and assimilation of crustal melts with in-situ crystallization in a magma chamber (the LT Group) and fractional crystallization in magma channels (the NW Group) and even with additional alteration (the EW Group). The 2nd generation is slightly younger (ca. 1760 Ma) and scarcely distributed. It has high-Fe–Ti contents, originated from a mixing source of DM and EM-I types. The dykes could be associated with a palaeo-plume: the 1st generation represents lower mantle melts generated from the plume head, whereas the 2nd generation records extra melts from asthenosphere entrained by the plume tail.     

Petrology of the Betulia Igneous Complex,Cauca, Colombia

The Betulia Igneous Complex (BIC) is a group of Late-Miocene (11.8 ± 0.2 Ma) hypabyssal intrusions of intermediate to felsic composition located in the SW of the Colombian Andes. These bodies have a calc-alkaline tendency and are related to the subduction of the Nazca plate under the South American plate. Diorites, quartz diorites and tonalities have porphyritic and phaneritic textures and are composed of plagioclase, amphibole, quartz, biotite, and orthoclase. Plagioclase is mainly of andesine-type and the amphiboles were classified mainly as magnesiohornblendes, actinolites, and tschermakites.BIC rocks have a narrow range of SiO₂ content (59–67wt%) and exhibit an enrichment of LILE and LREE relative to HFSE and HREE, respectively. These features are attributed to enrichment of LILE from the source and retention of HFSE (mainly Nb, Ta, and Ti) by refractory phases within the same source. The depletion of HREE is explained by fractionation of mineral phases that have a high partition coefficients for these elements, especially amphiboles, the major mafic phase in the rocks. Nevertheless, the fractionation of garnet in early stages of crystallization is not unlikely. Probably all BIC units were generated by the same magma chamber or at least by the same petrologic mechanism as shown by the similar patterns in spider and REE diagrams; fractional crystallization and differentiation processes controlled the final composition of the rocks, and crystallization stages determined the texture.Isotopic compositions of BIC rocks (⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr: 0.70435–0.70511; ¹⁴³Nd/¹⁴⁴Nd: 0.51258–0.51280; ²⁰⁶Pb/²⁰⁴Pb: 19.13–19.31; ²⁰⁷Pb/²⁰⁴Pb: 15.67–15.76; ²⁰⁸Pb/²⁰⁴Pb: 38.93–39.20) indicate a source derived from the mantle with crustal contamination. The model proposed for the BIC consists of fluids from the dehydration of the subducted slab (Nazca plate) and subducted sediments that generated partial melting of the mantle wedge. These basaltic melts ascended to the mantle–crust boundary where they were retained due to density differences and began to produce processes of melting, assimilation, storage, and homogenization (MASH zone). At this depth (∼40–45 km), fractional crystallization and differentiation processes began to produce more felsic magmas that were able to ascend through the crust and be emplaced at shallow depths.     

宾川苦橄岩的水含量:对峨眉山大火成岩省成因的启示

近几年来对西伯利亚、哥伦比亚河、塔里木等大火成岩省原始岩浆水含量的分析表明,其源区的显著水化是造成地 幔熔融异常的重要原因之一。峨眉山大火成岩省是全球二叠纪大火成岩省的重要组成之一,前期对其位于宾川剖面底部的 大理苦橄岩水含量的分析表明地幔的水化在峨眉山大火成岩省形成中起到了重要作用。然而大理苦橄岩只能代表峨眉山大 火成岩省初始阶段的熔融条件,而在其后的喷发历史中水是否也起到了关键作用还不清楚。定量分析后阶段喷发的苦橄岩 水含量有助于更完整评估水在大火成岩省形成中的作用。本文报道了位于峨眉山大火成岩省西部岩带宾川剖面中上部的宾 川苦橄岩的水含量,结果表明原始岩浆水含量可高达2.8 wt%,比大理苦橄岩的水含量略低,但仍显著高于MORB 和OIB, 达到了岛弧玄武岩的水含量范围。这表明水对整个大火成岩省的形成中都扮演了重要角色。     

峨眉山大火成岩省与玄武岩铜矿--以贵州二叠纪玄武岩分布区为例

Geochemistry and petrogenesis of anorogenic basic volcanic-plutonic rocks of the Kundal area,Malani Igneous Suite,western Rajasthan,India

The Kundal area of Malani Igneous Suite consists of volcano-plutonic rocks. Basalt flows and gabbro intrusives are associated with rhyolite. Both the basic rocks consist of similar mineralogy of plagioclase, clinopyroxene as essential and Fe-Ti oxides as accessories. Basalt displays sub-ophitic and glomeroporphyritic textures whereas gabbro exhibits sub-ophitic, porphyritic and intergrannular textures. They show comparable chemistry and are enriched in Fe, Ti and incompatible elements as compared to MORB/CFB. Samples are enriched in LREE and slightly depleted HREE patterns with least significant positive Eu anomalies. Petrographical study and petrogenetic modeling of [Mg]-[Fe], trace and REE suggest cogenetic origin of these basic rocks and they probably derived from Fe-enriched source with higher Fe/Mg ratio than primitive mantle source. Thus, it is concluded that the basic volcano-plutonic rocks of Kundal area are the result of a low to moderate degree (< 30%) partial melting of source similar to picrite/komatiitic composition. Within plate, anorogenic setting for the basic rocks of Kundal area is suggested, which is in conformity with the similar setting for Malani Igneous Suite.     

峨眉山大火成岩省：地幔柱活动的证据及其熔融条件

对苦橄岩中橄榄石斑晶及其中熔体包裹体的电子探针分析表明，峨眉山大火山岩省的原始岩浆具高镁（ MgO > 16％）特征。玄武岩的 REE反演计算揭示，参与峨眉山玄武岩岩浆作用的地幔具有异常高的潜能温度（ 1 550℃）。这些特征以及峨眉山玄武岩的大面积分布和一些熔岩所显示的类似于洋岛玄武岩 (OIB)的微量元素和 Sr- Nd同位素特征均为地幔热柱在能量和物质上参与峨眉山溢流玄武岩的形成提供了确凿证据。峨眉山两个主要岩类（高钛和低钛玄武岩）可能是不同地幔源区物质在不同条件下的熔融产物。低钛玄武岩形成于温度最高、岩石圈最薄的地幔柱轴部。地幔（ ISr≈ 0.705,ε Nd(t)≈＋ 2）熔融始于 140 km，并一直延续到较浅的深度（ 60 km,尖晶石稳定区 ),部分熔融程度为 16％，这类岩石可能代表了峨眉山玄武岩的主体。而高钛玄武岩的母岩浆的形成基本局限在石榴子石稳定区（ > 70 km），其源区特征为 : ISr≈ 0.704,ε Nd(t)≈＋ 5，可能代表了热柱边部或消亡期地幔小程度部分熔融（ 1.5％）的产物。

A correlation between the Large Igneous Provinces and mass extinctions: constraint on the end-Guadalupian mass extinction and the Emeishan LIP in South China,eastern Tethys

ABSTRACT

Well-documented outcrops around the Emeishan Large Igneous Province (ELIP) in South China, eastern Tethys, encompassing the end-Guadalupian mass extinction have been investigated. Correlatable sections recording the event exhibit very similar lithological characters, positive-then-negative C isotope excursions and massive biotic demise. Detailed analyses of the fossil record and carbon isotopic variations were carried out on the Guadalupian–Wuchiapingian Boundary sections over the inner, middle, outer zones of the ELIP and its margin. Due to a pronounced decrease in marine habitat area and the environmental and ecological change over this part of the Tethys, the biota crisis records show the loss of numerous tropical invertebrate taxa, and exhibit fewer genera and smaller testing sizes and low productivity. The biota crisis was a sustainable and gradual reduction in diversity over the Capitanian. The associated carbon isotopic data reveal unusually high δ¹³C(carb) values before the late Capitanian, representing higher primary productivity (or buried rate) and more ¹³C-enriched CO₂ released by hydrothermal carbonate breakdown from the upper crust into the sediments at that time. Subsequently, an accelerated negative excursion across the boundary and the gradual excursion with low carbon isotope amplitude favours an increased influx of light ¹²C sourced by the volcanism around the eastern Tethys. The very similar time–space relation between the biota crisis and the Emeishan volcanism confirms that volcanic eruptions may have triggered the biota crisis event in South China. Intensive volcanism could result in detrimental environmental and ecological stresses, habitat loss, organic material splitting, or the emission of light carbon and thermal fluid (or aerosol), implying that the losses of the shallow-marine invertebrates either occurred geologically instantaneously or in a series of closely spaced crises coinciding with the initial phase of ELIP formation. These findings in South China may reveal the causal relation between mass extinctions and LIPs in a global context.     

Re-Os同位素对峨眉山大火成岩省成因制约的探讨

峨眉山大火成岩省（ELIP）主要由玄武岩、玄武质火山碎屑岩及少量的苦橄岩（包括越南的科马提岩）、长英质岩石以及层状岩体和岩墙组成,其物质来源直接关系到其成因是否与地幔柱活动有关。Re-Os同位素体系是地核、地幔和地壳物质的最佳示踪剂。前人对ELIP内的Re-Os同位素研究表明,低Ti玄武岩的Os含量为0．006&#215;10^-9-0．40010^-9,^187Os／^188Os初始值为0．1371～1．403,并提出其与地幔柱活动有关;而高Ti玄武岩的Os含量为0．00410^-9～0．56010^-9,^187Os／^188Os初始值为0．1271～5．19,认为起源于大陆岩石圈地幔或地幔柱上升过程中受到大量岩石圈地幔“混染”（xu JF et al．,2007）;科马提岩的0s含量为1．2410^-9～7．0010^-9,^187Os／^188Os初始值为0．1251～0．1261,苦橄岩的Os含量为0．3210^-9～2．32910^-9,^187Os／^188Os初始值为0．1233～0．1266,指示苦橄岩和科马提岩均来自亏损地幔源区（Hanski et al．,2004;陈雷等,2007）。本文利用Os含量最低、^187Os／^188Os最高的高Ti玄武岩作为地壳端员,用铁质陨石、原始上地幔（PUM）和亏损地幔（DMM）作为地核和各种地幔端员,分别做二元混合计算,结果显示绝大多数玄武岩和所有苦橄岩及科马提岩均落在地壳和DMM混合曲线附近,并且邻区特提斯洋地幔岩与DMM具有相近的Os含量和^187Os／^188Os组成,据此推测峨眉山火成岩的形成与特提斯洋的活动有关,主要受控于地壳和亏损地幔的相互作用。     

二滩玄武岩的水含量：峨眉山大火成岩省地幔源区水含量的区域性分布特征

近期对科马提岩以及许多大火成岩省中的苦橄岩进行的水含量分析以及地幔潜能温度的研究表明,无论是太古宙还是显生宙的大火成岩省的形成都和含水的地幔柱有关。晚二叠纪的峨眉山大火成岩省（ELIP）位于扬子克拉通西缘,目前主流观点认为其是由地幔柱形成的。前人根据大量的岩石地球化学工作将ELIP分为西区、中区和东区;证明了位于西区的大理、宾川的苦橄岩和玄武岩地幔源区的水含量高于2500×10^-6。然而对于其他区域玄武岩源区的含水性还不清楚。文章以位于中区的二滩剖面底部高钛型玄武岩为研究对象,采用单斜辉石斑晶反演的方法研究恢复了其原始岩浆的水含量。结果表明,单斜辉石斑晶水含量范围为76×10^-6 ~424×10^-6, 对应的平衡熔体水含量为3.01 wt%。在考虑分离结晶影响后,恢复的原始岩浆水含量达到2.71±0.95 wt%。该水含量略低于大理苦橄岩水含量,与宾川苦橄岩相当。而计算的地幔源区水含量最低估计为1357×10^-6,该值低于大理、宾川苦橄岩的源区水含量,但仍显著高于正常洋中脊玄武岩和洋岛玄武岩源区。ELIP中不同区域的苦橄岩和玄武岩都存在高水含量,这表明在ELIP的形成和演化过程中水都扮演了很重要的角色。
