Mantle origin of the Dexing porphyry copper deposit,SE China

The Dexing ore deposit, Jiangxi Province, is the largest porphyry copper deposit in China. Controversies exist regarding the ore-forming source of this deposit. We have conducted Pb isotope analyses of pyrites from the Tongchang and Fujiawu mines. Our results document consistent Pb isotopes from these two orebodies, with ²⁰⁶Pb/²⁰⁴Pb, ²⁰⁷Pb/²⁰⁴Pb, and ²⁰⁸Pb/²⁰⁴Pb ratios of 17.954–18.320, 15.407–15.517, and 37.888–38.153, respectively. These Pb isotope ratios are consistent with those of ore-bearing adakitic porphyries but distinctly different from those of the Neoproterozoic metamorphic wall rocks, which indicates that the metals were derived from the porphyries. Based on previous S and Os isotopic data and comparisons with more than 20 Mo-bearing deposits worldwide, we further attribute the narrow range of δ³⁴S values of sulphide minerals and high Re–¹⁸⁷Os concentrations of associated molybdenites to a mantle origin. This large-scale copper deposit was evidently emplaced in a continental arc setting attending westward subduction of the palaeo-Pacific plate. Partial melting of the downgoing oceanic slab generated the adakitic magmas. The associated metals were extracted from the lithospheric mantle by these magmas during ascent through the mantle wedge.     

西藏波龙斑岩铜金矿床成矿斑岩年代学、岩石化学特征及其成矿意义

波龙斑岩铜金矿床是近年来在青藏高原中部发现的最大的斑岩型矿床,波龙矿床发育两期花岗闪长斑岩和一期花岗斑岩,两期花岗闪长斑岩是波龙矿床的成矿斑岩。本文开展了波龙矿床三期斑岩锆石U-Pb年龄、全岩岩石地球化学和Sr-Nd-Hf同位素组成分析。锆石U-Pb测年结果显示,三期斑岩在120Ma集中侵位。两期花岗闪长斑岩均富集轻稀土、大离子亲石元素,亏损重稀土、高场强元素,Eu异常不明显,显示出岛弧岩浆岩的特征;两期花岗闪长斑岩的(87Sr/86Sr)i值分别为0.70562－0.70711和0.70567－0.70850,εNd(t)分别为-4.0－-3.1和-8.0－-2.4,εHf(t)值分别变化于2.5－6.9和3.3－6.9,表明两期花岗闪长斑岩起源于新生的下地壳;花岗斑岩也具有岛弧岩浆岩的岩石化学特征,但其具有较高εNd(t)值(-0.7－-0.2)和εHf(t)值(1.3－12.2),可能表明花岗斑岩也起源于下地壳,但有更多幔源物质混入。波龙斑岩铜金矿床形成于班公湖－怒江洋壳向北俯冲末期,其成岩－成矿可能与洋壳俯冲关系密切,但波龙矿床的三期斑岩均起源于新生的下地壳,可能表明在120Ma南羌塘地块南缘开始逐步加厚。     

Sulfur isotopic zonation in the Cadia district,southeastern Australia: exploration significance and implications for the genesis of alkalic porphyry gold–copper deposits

The alkalic porphyry gold–copper deposits of the Cadia district occur in the eastern Lachlan Fold Belt of New South Wales, Australia. The district comprises four porphyry deposits (Ridgeway, Cadia Quarry, Cadia Hill, and Cadia East) and two iron–copper–gold skarn deposits (Big Cadia and Little Cadia). Almost 1,000 tonnes of contained gold and more than four million tonnes of copper have been discovered in these systems, making Cadia the world’s largest known alkalic porphyry district, in terms of contained gold. Porphyry gold–copper ore at Cadia is associated with quartz monzonite intrusive complexes, and is hosted by central stockwork and sheeted quartz–sulfide–(carbonate) vein systems. The Cadia porphyry deposits are characterized by cores of potassic and/or calc–potassic alteration assemblages, and peripheral halos of propylitic alteration, with late-stage phyllic alteration mostly restricted to fault zones. Hematite dusting is an important component of the propylitic alteration assemblage, and has produced a distinctive reddening of feldspar minerals in the volcanic wall rocks around the mineralized centers. Sulfide mineralization is strongly zoned at Ridgeway and Cadia East, with bornite-rich cores surrounded by chalcopyrite-rich halos and peripheral zones of pyrite mineralization. The Cadia Hill and Cadia Quarry deposits have chalcopyrite-rich cores and pyrite-rich halos, and Cadia Hill contains a high-level bornite-rich zone. Distinctive sulfur isotopic zonation patterns have been identified at Ridgeway, Cadia Hill, and Cadia East. The deposit cores are characterized by low δ³⁴S_sulfide values (−10 to −4‰), consistent with sulfide precipitation from an oxidized (sulfate-predominant) magmatic fluid at 450 to 400°C. Pyrite grains that occur in the propylitic alteration halos typically have δ³⁴S_sulfide values near 0‰. There is a gradual increase in δ³⁴S_sulfide values outwards from the deposit cores through the propylitic halos. Water–rock interaction during propylitic alteration caused magmatic sulfate reduction and concomitant oxidation of ferrous iron-bearing minerals, resulting in enrichment of ³⁴S in pyrite and also producing the distinctive reddened, hematite-rich alteration halos to the Cadia deposits. These results show that sulfur isotope analyses have potential applications in the exploration of alkalic porphyry-style deposits, with zones of depleted δ³⁴S_sulfide values most prospective for high-grade mineralization.     

西藏青草山斑岩铜金矿含矿斑岩锆石U-Pb年代学、微量元素地球化学及地质意义

西藏青草山斑岩铜金矿是班公湖-怒江缝合带北侧、羌塘地块南缘新发现的具有超大型远景的斑岩型铜金矿床。本文首次对青草山含矿花岗岩闪长斑岩的锆石进行了 LA-ICPMS U-Pb年代学和微量元素地球化学研究,通过对含矿斑岩中锆石的13个点的U-Pb定年,得出锆石²⁰⁶Pb/²³⁸U加权平均年龄为114.60±1.20Ma (MSWD=1.07),此年龄与同样分布于该带上的多不杂斑岩铜矿含矿斑岩成岩年龄、波龙斑岩铜矿成矿年龄基本一致。应用锆石Ti温度计,计算出含矿斑岩中绝大部分锆石的结晶温度小于700℃,如此低的结晶温度指示含矿斑岩岩浆来源于水近饱和条件下发生的部分熔融。通过对锆石微量元素的详细研究,得出青草山含矿斑岩形成于活动大陆边缘的陆缘弧环境,这与前人研究得出的多不杂斑岩铜矿的形成构造背景一致。相近的成岩成矿年龄和一致的形成构造背景揭示以多不杂、青草山、波龙斑岩铜(金)矿床为主要组成的班公湖-怒江斑岩铜矿带的客观存在。依据青草山斑岩铜金矿和多不杂斑岩铜矿的含矿斑岩和同期火山岩的地球化学特征,并结合已有弧环境斑岩铜矿的经典成矿模型,本文提出班公湖-怒江斑岩铜矿带形成的动力学机制,即在早白垩世,班公湖-怒江洋壳向北俯冲,大洋板片向下俯冲到一定深度时,发生大规模脱水作用,释放的流体交代上覆地幔楔,诱发其部分熔融,产生的富含成矿物质的岩浆向上运移,在浅部地壳发育成与成矿相关的岩浆房,部分岩浆上升直接喷出地表,形成下白垩统美日切错组火山岩,部分浅成-超浅成侵位成斑岩体及斑岩型矿床,随着岩浆的多点多期次侵位,最终形成班公湖-怒江斑岩铜矿带。     

The shoshonite porphyry Cu-Au association in the Goonumbla District,N.S.W., Australia

Summary The Goonumbla porphyry copper-gold deposit in N.S.W., Australia, is hosted by late Ordovician (439.2 ± 1.2 Ma)shoshonitic igneous rocks. In terms of their petrography, the rocks vary from andesitic to dacitic lavas and tuffs which are partly intruded by monzonite stocks; they are characterized by high and variable Al₂O₃ (13.4–19.9 wt%), very high K₂O values (up to 6.8 wt%), and high K₂O/Na₂O ratios (0.58–1.48), which are typical for the shoshonite association. The rocks also have enriched LILE concentrations (Ba up to 1200 ppm, Sr up to 1350 ppm), low HFSE (TiO₂ < 0.67 wt%, Zr < 125 ppm, Nb < 10 ppm, Hf < 3.4 ppm), and very low LREE (La < 22.4 ppm, Ce < 31 ppm), which are typical for potassic volcanic rocks formed in alate oceanic-arc setting.Mineral chemistry of selected magmatic mica and apatite phenocrysts from host rocks reveals relatively high SrO and BaO contents (micas: 0.15 wt% and up to 0.28 wt%, respectively; apatites: up to 0.28 wt% and 0.19 wt%, respectively) and very high halogen concentrations. Micas are characterized by up to 3.9 wt% F and 0.14 wt% Cl, whereas apatites have up to 3.6 wt% F and 0.68 wt% Cl. These very high halogen contents compared to those from barren intrusions imply that the shoshonitic magmatism was the source of mineralization.Copper-gold mineralization consists mainly of bornite, chalcopyrite, chalcocite and minor pyrite and tetrahedrite. Native gold occurs mainly as minute grains within silicates of the host rocks, and more rarely as fine inclusions in the sulphides. Mineralization is accompanied by wallrock alteration comprising a spatially restricted potassic type and a regional propylitic alteration type.Thus, the porphyry copper-gold deposit in the Goonumbla district can be viewed as an additional example of a worldwide association between potassic/shoshonitic magmatism and base- and precious-metal mineralization. More specifically, it appears to be the oldest recorded example of a shoshontie-associated porphyry Cu-Au deposit from a late oceanic-arc setting, a possible modern analogue being Ladolam at Lihir Island, Papua New Guinea

Die Shoshonit Porphyry Cu-Au Assoziation im Goonumbla Distrikt, N.S.W., Australien

Zusammenfassung Die Porphyry Cu-Au Vererzung im Goonumbla Distrikt in New South Wales, Australien, sitzt in oberordovizischen (ca. 439.2 ± 1.2 Ma) Shoshoniten auf. Das petrographische Spektrum dieser Gesteine reicht von andesitischen bis dazitischen Laven und Tuffen, die lokal von Monzonit-Stöcken intrudiert werden; die Gesteine besitzen hohe, aber variable Al₂O₃ Gehalte (13.4–19.9 Gew%), sehr hohe K₂O Gehalte (bis zu 6.8 Gew%) und hohe K₂O/Na₂O Verhältnisse (0.58–1.48), die typisch sind für Shoshonite. Außerdem weisen sie hohe Konzentrationen an LILE Elementen (Ba bis 1200 ppm, Sr bis 1350 ppm) auf und geringe Konzentrationen an HFSE (TiO₂ < 0.67 Gew%, Zr < 125 ppm, Nb < 10 ppm, Hf < 3.4 ppm) sowie an LREE (La < 22.4 ppm, Ce < 31 ppm), die als typisch gelten für potassische Vulkanite von ozeanischen Plattengrenzen.Die Mineralchemie von repräsentativen Glimmer- und Apatit-Phänokristallen ist charakterisiert durch hohe SrO und BaO Gehalte (Glimmer: 0.15 Gew%, bzw. bis 0.28 Gew%; Apatite: bis 0.28 Gew%, bzw. 0.19 Gew%). Sie enthalten ferner sehr hohe Halogen-Konzentrationen. Die Glimmer enthalten beispielsweise bis zu 3.9 Gew% F und 0.14 Gew% Cl, während Apatite bis zu 3.6 Gew% F und 0.68 Gew% Ci aufweisen. Dies erscheint nicht ungewöhnlich, weil Glimmer und Apatite von vererzten Mag matiten zumeist deutlich höhere Halogengehalte besitzen, als solche von unvererzten Magmatiten. Die hohen Halogen-Gehalte in Phänokristallen aus den Shoshoniten legen nahe, die Vulkanite als den Ursprung der Vererzung zu interpretieren.Die Cu-Au Vererzung besteht überwiegend aus den Sulfiden Bornit, Kupferkies, Kupferglanz und vereinzelt auftretendem Pyrit und Tetrahedrit. Gediegen Gold wird in der Regel nur als kleine Partikel innerhalb von Silikaten der shoshonitischen Wirtsgesteine und seltener als feine Einschlüsse in Sulfiden gefunden.Die Vererzung wird von hydrothermaler Alteration der Wirtsgesteine begleitet und zwei Alterationsarten lassen sich unterscheiden: eine potassische sowie eine regional zu beobachtende propylitische Alteration.Die Porphyry Cu-Au Lagerstätte im Goonumbla Gebiet ist ein Beispiel für die weltweit beobachtete Assoziation von Bunt- und Edelmetallvererzungen und potassisch/shoshonitischem Magmatismus. Der Goonumbla Distrikt stellt die älteste bisher bekannte Porphyry Cu-Au Lagerstätte aus einerspätgenetischen ozeanischen Plattengrenze dar. Einmodernes Beispiel für eine Cu-Au Lagerstätte vergleichbaren Typs ist Ladolam auf Lihir Island, Papua New Guinea.

     

西藏铁格隆南浅成低温热液型-斑岩型Cu-Au矿床流体及地质特征研究

铁格隆南铜金矿床(荣那矿段)是在西藏班公湖_怒江成矿带上多龙矿集区内发现的青藏高原首例高硫化型浅成低温热液型Cu(Au)矿床。文章通过对铁格隆南铜金矿床金属矿物、蚀变矿物组合、蚀变分带及流体包裹体地球化学特征的研究,初步确定了矿床类型,探讨了矿床成因。铁格隆南矿区存在硫砷铜矿、铜蓝、蓝辉铜矿等典型的高硫化态矿物组合和黄铜矿、斑铜矿等斑岩型矿床的典型矿物,此外,还识别出久辉铜矿、斯硫铜蓝、吉硫铜矿等少见的Cu_S二元体系矿物组合。矿床蚀变矿物组合以典型的强酸性环境下的明矾石_高岭石_地开石等黏土矿物组合为特征,并见金红石、锐钛矿、硬石膏、磷锶铝石、叶蜡石、水铝石等特征蚀变矿物。蚀变分带特征为石英_明矾石_高岭石/地开石带和高岭石_地开石带组成的高级泥化带叠加在绢英岩化带和钾化带的顶部和外围。矿区存在高温、高盐度(404~430℃,32.39%~38.94%)的岩浆流体和中低温、低盐度(239~292℃,0.35%~4.18%)的高硫化型矿化流体。高温、高盐度富气相(主要是H2O、HCl、SO2)的岩浆流体与大气降水的混合,形成的强酸性高氧逸度的中低温、低盐度流体,是高硫化型浅成低温热液矿床蚀变和矿化形成的关键。多龙矿集区具有较典型的斑岩型_浅成低温热液成矿系统的矿物组合、蚀变组合及成矿流体特征,因此预测矿集区内还能找到类似的斑岩型_浅成低温热液型矿床。     

江西相山铀矿田邹家山矿床中流纹斑岩的锆石U-Pb年代学、岩石地球化学与Sr-Nd-Hf同位素组成

在相山铀矿田邹家山矿床中发现晚期侵入到碎斑熔岩中的流纹斑岩岩脉。本文运用激光等离子质谱(LA-ICP-MS)对该岩脉中锆石进行了U-Pb年龄测定,获得了134.6±1.2Ma(2σ,MSDW=1.2)的形成年龄。该年龄与我们己报导的相山火山侵入杂岩中流纹英安岩、流纹英安斑岩、碎斑熔岩等岩石的年龄一致,进一步表明相山大规模火山活动的时间为早白垩世,并且是一次集中的岩浆活动。相山邹家山流纹斑岩具有高硅,富钾,铝过饱和指数(A/CNK)大于1.1,属于过铝质岩系。该岩石还具有Rb、Th、U、La、Ce、Nd、LREE元素相对富集;Nb、Ta、Sr、P、Ti明显负异常和中等铕负异常(Eu/Eu*=0.32～0.46)的特点。岩石的锶同位素初始比值ISr为0.7097～0.7136,εNd(t)值为-8.49～-9.62,锆石的εHf(t)值为-3.6～-9.4(集中在-7到-9之间),这些特征表明相山流纹斑岩为硅铝层地壳物质重熔演化的产物。流纹斑岩的Sr-Nd同位素,锆石Hf同位素以及稀土元素配分模式与前人报导的相山火山岩、次火山岩及基底变质岩相似,表明相山火山侵入杂岩在成岩物质的来源上与基底变质岩关系密切,可能是由基底变质岩经部分熔融的产物。结合前人的研究资料,认为相山流纹斑岩可能也是形成于与太平洋板块俯冲作用有关的弧后拉张环境。     

黑龙江金厂铜金矿床闪长玢岩地球化学及锆石U-Pb年代学

黑龙江省东宁金厂铜金矿床为最新勘查突破的特大型矿床,矿床矿体类型以角砾岩型为主,且角砾岩型矿体与闪长玢岩岩体空间关系密切。岩相特征显示闪长玢岩为多斑-基质隐晶结构,斑晶以斜长石、角闪石为主,并见少量辉石。闪长玢岩SiO2含量为54.62%～67.82%,平均60.33%;Al2O3含量为14.52%～18.25%,平均16.62%,且K2O/Na2O为0.06～0.31,均小于0.5,属于亚碱性岩系并具钙碱性演化趋势,但钾含量较低。稀土元素的LREE/HREE值较高,介于5.06～14.24之间,平均9.16;δEu为0.85～1.46,平均1.21,表现为正Eu异常。微量元素以低Y和Yb,高Sr为特征,其Sr/Y值为35.87～111.4,平均57.57(>40);此外,微量元素富集大离子亲石元素(LILE),亏损高场强元素(HSFE),尤以Nb、Ta和Ti亏损最为显著,且见Pb富集明显。地球化学特征显示闪长玢岩具有埃达克质岩的特征,表明闪长玢岩不仅为重要的含矿母岩,而且指示金厂金矿具备进一步找矿的潜力。同时,闪长玢岩的地球化学特征还显示其岩浆演化以结晶分异为主,而岩浆则可能起源于俯冲流体交代的地幔楔部分熔融,岩浆上涌时受地壳混染。闪长玢岩的锆石U-Pb年龄介于118.1±1.6Ma～115.7±2.0Ma之间,结果表明118.1±1.6Ma可以代表金厂斑岩型铜金矿床尤其是角砾岩型矿体的成矿时代,与区域120～110Ma的大规模岩浆活动时间一致,说明金厂斑岩型铜金矿床的成矿可能与早白垩纪太平洋板块的俯冲作用有关。区域上寻找同时期的斑岩型-浅成低温热液型铜金矿床潜力巨大。     

黑龙江省跃进山铜金矿床花岗斑岩锆石U-Pb定年及地质意义

跃进山铜金矿床是完达山活动带的典型矿床,位于密山—敦化深断裂北侧。本文对含矿花岗斑岩开展了锆石LA-ICP-MS U-Pb测年、主量和微量元素的研究,厘定岩体的形成时代,探讨了成矿构造背景。结果表明与成矿密切相关的花岗斑岩的年龄为(109.17±0.91)Ma。它们为过铝质钙碱性系列岩石,富集Rb、Ba、La、Nd、Hf等元素,亏损Nb、Sr、P、Ti等元素,具俯冲带岩浆岩的基本特征,这些暗示它们形成于岛弧或活动大陆边缘环境。结合岩体的地球化学特征和完达山成矿带的构造岩浆演化,认为该矿床形成于岛弧构造背景,其形成与中生代太平洋的俯冲及早白垩世晚期东亚东部岩浆活动陆缘迁移、构造单元转化有关。     

The Cu isotopic signature of granites from the Lachlan Fold Belt,SE Australia

This contribution reports our preliminary work to determine Cu isotope ratios for various granite rocks and examine the Cu isotope systematics within granite suites. A chemical procedure, modified from Maréchal [Maréchal, C.N., Télouk, P. and Albarède, F., 1999. Precise analysis of copper and zinc isotopic compositions by plasma-source mass spectrometry. Chemical Geology, 156(1–4): 251–273.], was used to separate Cu from rock matrix. Quantitative recovery (100.6 ± 1.6%), with a low total procedural blank (2.65 ± 0.66 ng) for Cu, has been achieved, allowing Cu isotopic measurements on samples with as little as 10 ppm Cu. The Cu isotope ratios (δ⁶⁵Cu relative to NIST SRM 976) of 32 rock samples, ranging from mafic to felsic compositions, from 3 batholiths (2 I-type, 1 S-type) from the Lachlan Fold Belt in southeastern Australia, vary from ? 0.46‰ to 1.51‰. Most of them cluster around zero, with mean values for the I-type and S-type granites of 0.03 ± 0.15‰ and ? 0.03 ± 0.42‰ (2 sigma) respectively. These data, together with Cu isotope ratios of two loess samples, provide preliminary evidence that the baseline Cu isotopic composition of the crystalline part of upper continental crust is close to zero. The tight clustering of Cu isotope ratios of rocks from the I-type suites suggests that high-temperature magmatic processes do not produce significant Cu isotope fractionation. However, two granites with abnormally heavy Cu isotope signatures (up to 1.51‰) appears to be the result of localized hydrothermal alteration. Measurable variation in Cu isotopic composition of the S-type granite may reflect isotopic heterogeneity in the sedimentary source region as a result of redox processes or may be due to hydrothermal overprinting. Thus, Cu isotope geochemistry may be a useful tracer for studying hydrothermal alteration and source heterogeneity of granitic rocks.     

西环太平洋菲律宾群岛中酸性岩浆活动与斑岩型铜金成矿：兼论埃达克岩与斑岩型铜金成矿

河北木吉村斑岩铜矿辉钼矿Re_Os定年、成矿斑岩锆石U_Pb定年和Hf同位素组成研究

木吉村斑岩铜矿位于华北克拉通太行山北段。对含矿闪长玢岩精细SHRIMP U_Pb定年和Hf同位素地球化学研究表明:闪长玢岩结晶于142.0±1.5 Ma,闪长玢岩锆石εHf(t)值为-21.2~-17.9,相应的tDMC为2.3~2.5Ga,与杂岩体内辉长闪长岩具有相似的Hf同位素特征:εHf(t)值为-19.6~-15.3。利用辉钼矿Re_Os同位素测年技术,对木吉村斑岩铜矿床中5件斑岩型矿石中辉钼矿进行定年,获得木吉村斑岩铜矿高精度成矿年龄。斑岩矿石中辉钼矿Re_Os模式年龄为144.5~145.5 Ma,加权平均值为144.8±1.4 Ma,5件样品辉钼矿等时线年龄为145.3±2.2 Ma,该年龄与加权平均年龄一致,可代表木吉村斑岩铜矿床的成矿时代。壳幔物质的相互作用对于木吉村成岩、成矿过程发挥着决定性控制作用。与华北克拉通内部其他地区相同,晚侏罗-早白垩世北太行地区处于软流圈上涌的岩石圈伸展构造背景。     

Petrogenesis of ore-bearing porphyry from the Tangjiaping porphyry Mo deposit,Dabie orogen: Zircon U-Pb geochronology,geochemistry and Sr-Nd-Hf isotopic constraints

Extensive Early Cretaceous post-collisional igneous rocks, especially the large volume of granitoids developed in the Dabie orogen. Some of these granitic rocks are spatially, temporally, and genetically associated with economically important molybdenum deposits. The Tangjiaping large-scale (> 0.1 million ton) porphyry Mo deposit is located in the northwest of the Northern Dabie Complex unit. The Mo mineralization is mainly hosted in molybdenite-bearing quartz veinlets and stockworks in the Tangjiaping granite porphyry, which intruded into Proterozoic biotite-plagioclase gneiss and amphibole-plagioclase gneiss. Two alteration zones from the porphyry centre outwards and downwards can be recognized: (1) K-silicate alteration-silicification zone; (2) silicification-phyllic alteration zone. The Tangjiaping ore-bearing granite porphyry occurs as an individual stock with an outcrop of 0.4 km². LA-ICP-MS zircon U-Pb dating of the Tangjiaping granite porphyry yields crystallization age of 115 ± 1 Ma, which is consistent with the molybdenite Re-Os age of the deposit given by previous studies. The Tangjiaping granitic rocks are metaluminous and belong to high-K calc-alkaline and shoshonitic series. They are relatively enriched in light rare earth elements and have moderately negative Eu anomalies. Geochemical and mineralogical characteristics indicate that the Tangjiaping granite is an A-type granite and was generated by partial melting of intermediate-felsic rocks at pressures of ca. 0.4–0.8 GPa. There are high initial ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr ratios ranging from 0.707367 to 0.709410 and negative ε_Nd(t) values varying from − 15.0 to − 14.2 for the Tangjiaping granite. In situ zircon Hf isotopic analyses show that the ε_Hf(t) values of zircons from the Tangjiaping granite porphyry vary from − 17.0 to − 6.0. The geochemical data and Sr-Nd-Hf isotopes, coupled with the Neoproterozoic inherited zircon age (652 ± 21 Ma), indicate that the Tangjiaping granite porphyry was most likely derived from partial melting of the Northern Dabie gneiss with some relatively enriched mantle materials involved. The Tangjiaping Mo ore-forming granite porphyry was formed in an extensional setting. The Early Cretaceous asthenospheric upwelling might have played an important role in the formation of the approximately coeval Mo-bearing magmas in the Dabie orogen.     

安徽茶亭铜金矿床赋矿石英闪长玢岩黑云母成分特征及成岩成矿指示意义

安徽宣城茶亭矿床位于长江中下游成矿带东南缘的南陵-宣城盆地内,是近年来该盆地内新发现的大型斑岩型Cu-Au矿床。石英闪长玢岩是茶亭矿床主要的赋矿岩石,文章从石英闪长玢岩的造岩矿物黑云母入手,利用EMPA及LA-ICP-MS等原位微区分析方法,对黑云母进行了详细的矿物化学分析,旨在查明赋矿石英闪长玢岩形成的物理化学条件,并探讨其成岩成矿意义。分析结果表明:茶亭赋矿石英闪长玢岩中黑云母具有高w(TiO_2)、低w(Al_2O_3)的特征,整体富Mg、贫Fe。黑云母温压计算结果表明,在不同深度上,石英闪长玢岩具有相似的结晶温度及压力,其结晶温度为746～773℃,压力为44～85 MPa,对应深度为1.7～3.3 km,平均为2.47 km,显示石英闪长玢岩侵位深度相对较浅。黑云母中高的氧化系数(0.613～0.864)、高Mg#(0.557～0.864),以及w(MgO)介于14.73%～15.86%,均显示石英闪长玢岩为壳幔混源,并且以幔源为主。黑云母成分显示石英闪长玢岩形成于较高氧逸度条件下。浅部岩体具有较高的X_(Mg)值,表明浅部岩体氧逸度较高,可能指示随着岩浆的不断演化,残余岩浆的氧逸度不断降低。同时,石英闪长玢岩黑云母相对一般斑岩型铜矿具有较高的w(Cu),并且高Cl、低F。这些特征均有利于茶亭Cu-Au矿床的形成。     

西藏申扎县雄梅铜矿床的硫、铅同位素特征及其成矿意义

西藏雄梅斑岩型铜矿床位于班公湖-怒江成矿带中段的申扎县雄梅乡。矿区岩石类型由含矿花岗闪长斑岩、孔雀石化次生石英岩及含矿角岩化砂板岩组成。该矿床自2012年发现以来尚未开展成因方面的深入研究,作者旨在通过对矿区硫化物硫、铅同位素的系统研究,查明矿区的成矿物质来源,并通过与成矿带西段多龙矿集区斑岩铜矿成因的对比研究,对本地区的成矿潜力做出评价。测试结果表明,雄梅铜矿矿石硫化物的δ34S值为-2.5‰~6.1‰,硫同位素呈塔式分布,显示岩浆硫特征;铅同位素组成~(206)Pb/~(204)Pb、~(207)Pb/~(204)Pb、~(208)Pb/~(204)Pb比值分别为18.220~19.005、15.626~15.770、38.510~39.856,显示正常铅的特征。对铅同位素的源区分析,显示样品大致分布于上地壳端员。铅μ值在9.51~9.78之间,也表明硫化物样品具壳源的特征。与多龙矿集区成矿条件的对比研究,发现两者都是形成于造山带的碰撞后伸展环境,成矿物质来源上两者存在一些差异。良好的构造成矿环境,表明了本地区优越的找矿前景。

雷门沟钼矿床是东秦岭地区典型的斑岩型矿床之一。矿体主要赋存于雷门沟花岗斑岩体内,部分产于岩体外接触带的太华群片麻岩中。LA-(MC)-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb定年结果显示,雷门沟花岗斑岩的成岩年龄为(131.0±0.6)Ma(n=25,MSWD=1.6),与辉钼矿Re-Os同位素年龄(132±2)Ma一致。岩石地球化学分析表明,该岩体的A/CNK=1.11~1.17,w(K2O+Na2O)为8.12%~9.07%,K2O/Na2O比值为1.17~1.68,属于过铝质和高钾钙碱性系列。稀土和微量元素特征显示,该岩体富集LREE、K、Rb、Ba、Sr、Pb等大离子亲石元素,亏损HREE、Nb、Ta、Ti、P等高场强元素,具有中等的负铕异常。岩石的初始87Sr/86Sr比值为0.709 319~0.709 326,εNd(t)值为-16.26~-16.16;锆石的εHf(t)值变化于-27.9~-16.9,二阶段模式年龄tDM2=2259~2946 Ma,显示其源区物质以壳源物质为主,可能为太古宙太华群,有少量幔源组分的参与,岩体可能是由底侵的基性幔源岩浆诱发的地壳物质部分熔融形成的。与邻近的花山岩基的地球化学和同位素特征对比表明,雷门沟花岗斑岩和花山岩基来源于相同的源区,推测二者应是不同侵入期次的产物。     

Copper isotope fractionation in the Meiduk porphyry copper deposit,Northwest of Kerman Cenozoic magmatic arc,Iran

The Meiduk deposit possesses three different Cu reservoirs each with a unique Cu isotope signature. δ⁶⁵Cu for the leached cap minerals ranges from ?2.5 to +0.49‰ to ?0.45 to +0.3‰ for hypogene minerals and from +1.3 to +4.4‰ for supergene enrichment minerals. Oxidation of hypogene sulphides and effective trapping of copper (from solutions derived from the leached cap) in the supergene enrichment zone caused this relationship. A systematic pattern of low Cu isotope values close to the surface and higher isotope values with depth reveals a palaeo‐fluid pathway in the northwest–southeast direction over the deposit. Thus, the copper isotope data from leached cap and enrichment minerals can be used to monitor copper migration during supergene weathering at the Meiduk deposit.     

斑岩-矽卡岩型矿床成矿作用过程中的Cu同位素地球化学行为初步研究：以冬瓜山矿床为例

本文初步报道了长江中下游铜陵矿集区内冬瓜山斑岩-矽卡岩型Cu-Au矿中硫化物、石英闪长岩体和赋矿围岩的Cu同位素组成特征。其中,硫化物的δ65Cu变化范围为-0.54‰~0.95‰,变化范围较大,可达1.5‰,表明高温成矿体系下铜同位素发生分馏,铜同位素具有示踪高温成矿作用过程的潜力。不同空间位置的黄铜矿的铜同位素组成呈现出空间分带特征,表现为从岩体→斑岩型矿体→近岩体矽卡岩→矽卡岩型矿体,随着远离岩体,黄铜矿的铜同位素组成逐渐变重。导致斑岩-矽卡岩型矿床铜同位素出现空间分带的主要原因是矿化过程中铜同位素发生分馏。并且,对于冬瓜山矿床来讲,导致铜同位素组成空间分带的分馏不是发生在Cu在气-液两相之间分配的过程中,而是发生在硫化物从流体中沉淀出来的过程中。在硫化物的沉淀过程中,铜的重同位素优先在流体中富集,轻同位素在沉淀中富集,随着流体向外迁移,硫化物沉淀的进行,残余热液流体会逐渐富集铜的重同位素。硫化物的铜同位素组成可以用来反演和指示成矿流体的迁移方向。     

东秦岭石窑沟斑岩钼矿床地质特征及辉钼矿Re-Os年龄

在东秦岭钼成矿带最近探明的石窑沟大型钼矿床位于近东西向马超营断裂带与北东向石窑沟-焦园断裂带的交汇部位,获得钼金属储量10余万吨,平均品位0.068%。钼矿化呈细脉-网脉状分布于花岗斑岩体及其围岩熊耳群火山岩中,与矿化有关的围岩蚀变有钾长石化、硅化、绢云母化、黄铁矿化等,具有斑岩型钼矿床的一些基本特点。在矿床中选取5件不同矿化类型的辉钼矿样品,采用ICP-MS法进行Re-Os同位素定年,获得模式年龄131.3±2.4～134.3±2.6Ma,等时线年龄135.2±1.8Ma(MSWD=0.18),形成于早白垩世,与豫西熊耳山地区雷门沟、鱼池岭等钼矿床形成时代相近。据辉钼矿Re含量(8.242×10-6～30.24×10-6)推测,矿床成矿物质主要来自于下地壳。矿床为东秦岭-大别山地区中生代第三期钼成矿作用产物,形成于早白垩世中国东部岩石圈伸展环境。
