藏北巴毛穷宗-羌巴欠火山岩K-Ar和40Ar-39Ar年代学研究

两种方法(K-Ar和^40Ar／^39Ar)测定藏北火山岩同位素地质年龄表明其相当于渐新世到中新世：巴毛穷宗钾质碱性火山岩为32Ma～19Ma，涌波错和羌巴欠为17Ma和14Ma～12Ma等，同位素地质年龄范围在32Ma～12Ma，而且火山喷溢作用，从南到北逐渐变新。其中在巴毛穷宗火山岩区获得32Ma的年龄，证实青藏高原的隆升至少在32Ma以前已经开始。     

哈萨克斯坦北东天山浅成低温热液型金矿床成矿时代及构造背景

哈萨克斯坦北东天山地区是中亚造山带重要的浅成低温热液型金矿床产出地区,但其成矿年代学研究非常薄弱。为确定成矿时代,作者运用高精度激光40Ar/39Ar定年法对阿尔哈尔雷金矿床和乌仁科布拉克金矿床的赋矿围岩进行了年龄测定。获得阿尔哈尔雷金矿床安山岩样品20个点40Ar/39Ar等时线年龄为304±7Ma(MSWD=6),乌仁科布拉克金矿床安山玄武岩样品21个点40Ar/39Ar等时线年龄为280±6Ma(MSWD=2.4),表明哈萨克斯坦北东天山地区浅成低温热液型金矿床主要形成于晚石炭世末期-早二叠世。初步的岩石学、地球化学研究表明,哈萨克斯坦北东天山地区晚石炭世末期-二叠纪火山岩主要为流纹岩、粗安岩、玄武粗安岩、玄武安山岩、粗面玄武岩和玄武岩,具双峰式特征,主体属于高钾钙碱性和橄榄玄粗岩系列。哈萨克斯坦北东天山地区晚石炭世末期浅成低温热液型金矿床形成于碰撞晚期向裂谷的转换阶段,而二叠纪浅成低温热液型金矿床产出于陆内裂谷环境。     

新疆玛因鄂博断裂带中花岗质糜棱岩锆石U-Pb SHRIMP和黑云母40Ar-39Ar年龄及意义

玛因鄂博断裂带具有左型剪切活动特征,分布其中的花岗质糜棱岩呈脉状、条带状产出,展布方向与剪切拉伸方向一致,为同构造花岗岩。其岩石化学为高钾钙碱性系列,属后碰撞“I”型花岗岩;稀土元素含量较高,ΣREE为(239.14~266.31)×10-6;具有中等程度的铕负异常,δEu为0.45~0.66,轻稀土明显富集。其锆石U-PbSHRIMP年龄为281±4Ma,黑云母40Ar-39Ar等时线年龄为236.1±1.2Ma。二者分别代表岩石的侵入年龄和后期的剪切变形年龄。其形成与早二叠世区域性大规模剪切活动有关,而黑云母40Ar-39Ar等时线年龄代表中三叠世早期的剪切变形活动。结合前人资料分析,玛因鄂博断裂的剪切活动持续时间较长,高峰期可能为290~270Ma,而其最后结束时间为230Ma左右。     

鲁东胶莱盆地青山组火山岩的^40Ar—^39Ar定年——以五莲分岭山火山机构为例

以五莲分岭山火山机构为例，运用高精度的^40Ar－^39Ar定年技术，对胶莱盆地青山组火山岩的形成年龄进行了精确测定。结果表明。青山组第一旋回中偏碱性富钾火山岩的形成年龄为109．9±0．6Ma，第二旋回酸性流纹质火山岩形成年龄为108．2±0．6Ma，据此确定胶莱盆地青山组火山岩应为早白垩世岩浆活动的产物。根据该组火山岩在空间上具有自西向东年龄渐新的演变趋势，表明中生代伊泽奈崎板块向欧亚板块碰撞俯冲应是制约区内火山活动的主要动力因素。     

藏北高原新生代火山岩地球化学系列划分及成因分析

根据K—Ar法和Ar-Ar法定年数据，藏北新生代火山岩从早到晚可划分为多格错仁和走构油茶错高钾钙碱性系列(40—30Ma)、巴毛穷宗和鱼鳞山白榴石碧玄岩—响岩系列(29—24Ma)以及黑石北湖钾玄岩系列(1．5Ma)。从岩石化学和同位素方面对区内新生代火山岩进行了研究，认为藏北新生代火山岩同时具有板内碱性玄武岩和岛弧玄武岩的双重地球化学特征。在成因和源区上各系列存在着差异，高钾钙碱性系列为富集地幔玄武岩底侵作用导致地壳物质部分熔融的产物，并经历了地壳的AF过程。而白榴石碧玄岩—响岩系列和钾玄岩系列来自与古俯冲有关的“古老富集地幔”，为岩浆分离结晶作用的产物。岩浆起源深度随时间变新逐渐变大。     

江西中西部地区白垩纪玄武质岩石的40Ar/39Ar年代学和地球化学研究

对江西中西部两处中生代玄武质岩石进行了^40Ar／^39Ar年代学和元素一同位素地球化学研究,赣西北上高和赣中螺丝山地区玄武质岩石分别给出了137Ma和90Ma的全岩^40Ar／^39Ar年龄。赣西北上高为亚碱性的玄武安山岩,而赣中螺丝山为碱性玄武岩／粗玄岩,两者均以富集LREE和LILE、无明显HFSE亏损为特征。前者初始^86Sr=0．70492～0．70575,εxd(t)=0．61～3．36,落在Samoa-OIB同位素组成范围;后者初始ε=0．70323～0．70350,εxd(t)=6．19～6．93,与Hawaii-OIB的Sr-Nd同位素组成相似。与赣南早中生代(约173Ma)EMⅡ型玄武岩一起暗示该地区中生代岩浆源区有着自岩石圈向软流圈属性演化的时序迁移规律,表明该区自早中生代以来处于软流圈上隆的岩石圈伸展构造背景。     

藏北祖尔肯乌拉山地区新生代火山岩40Ar-39Ar同位素定年及其意义

通过对藏北祖尔肯乌拉山地区大面积分布的新生代火山岩的^40Ar-^39Ar同位素测年结果分析表明,火山岩^40Ar-^39Ar同位素年龄介于45Ma～39Ma之间,集中于40Ma左右,属始新世。火山岩^40Ar-^39Ar同位素年龄的精确限定,不仅为该区生物化石缺乏的新生代陆相红层沉积时代上限提供了同位素年代学依据,而且为藏北EMⅡ型富集地幔形成时限提供了同位素年代学的约束。     

攀西茨达和太和层状岩体时代

由于对攀西层状岩体中的同一岩体采用不同的定年方法获得的年龄结果有较大差异,导致对层状岩体的成岩时代产生争议。对攀西古裂谷带内茨达和太和两个层状辉长岩体进行了黑云母^40Ar/^39Ar法和锆石ELA-ICP-MS法定年研究,结果表明：茨达不含矿层状辉长岩中黑云母^40Ar/^39Ar坪年龄为256Ma,太和含矿层状辉长岩中锆石U-Pb年龄为215Ma,其年龄范围在256-215Ma,相当于晚二叠世—晚三叠世,属于海西晚期—印支期,而且不含矿层状辉长岩侵位时间在前,含矿层状岩体侵位时间在后。此外,根据此次层状岩体同位素地质年龄测定,表明其早期侵位时间并非在裂谷张裂之前的成穹阶段,而是和峨眉山玄武岩在晚二叠世—晚三叠世张裂阶段的喷溢具有同步性,亦显示层状辉长岩的岩浆作用与地幔柱活动,以及断裂构造的密切关系。     

塔里木盆地塔北隆起西部火山岩40Ar-39Ar年代学和地球化学特征

本文对塔里木盆地塔北隆起西部钻井的火山岩岩心样品进行了40Ar-39 Ar定年,五件样品的年龄值在248.75±6.5Ma至267.44±3.01Ma之间,样品的岩石地球化学分析表明火山岩为具有大陆裂谷性质的板内火山岩.结合前人研究成果,本文认为塔里木盆地火山活动不仅发生在早二叠世,塔北隆起西部地区在中-晚二叠世仍有强烈的火山活动,该火山活动是塔里木盆地早二叠世大火成岩省后期热事件的产物.     

铜陵地区中酸性侵入岩年代学研究

本文选择了铜陵地区主要岩石类型的代表性岩体中黑云母为测定对象，准确地测定了侵入岩的４０Ａｒ／３９Ａｒ同位素年龄。测定结果表明，区内侵入岩的年龄均小于１４０Ｍａ，属燕山晚期的产物，后期热事件为成矿时代，晚于岩浆侵入时代，在此基础上，分析了ＫＡｒ法、ＲｂＳｒ法同位素年龄产生偏差的原因     

Comparison of Conventional K–Ar and Ar/Ar Dating of Young Mafic Volcanic Rocks

K–Ar and ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar ages have been measured on nine mafic volcanic rocks younger than 1 myr from the Snake River Plain (Idaho), Mount Adams (Washington), and Crater Lake (Oregon). The K–Ar ages were calculated from Ar measurements made by isotope dilution and K₂O measurements by flame photometry. The ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar ages are incremental-heating experiments using a low-blank resistance-heated furnace. The results indicate that high-quality ages can be measured on young, mafic volcanic rocks using either the K–Ar or the ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar technique. The precision of an ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar plateau age generally is better than the precision of a K–Ar age because the plateau age is calculated by pooling the ages of several gas increments. The precision of a plateau age generally is better than the precision of an isotope correlation (isochron) age for the same sample. For one sample the intercept of the isochron yielded an ⁴⁰Ar/³⁶Ar value significantly different from the atmospheric value of 295.5. Recalculation of increment ages using the isochron intercept for the composition of nonradiogenic Ar in the sample resulted in much better agreement of ages for this sample. The results of this study also indicate that, given suitable material and modern equipment, precise K–Ar and ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar ages can be measured on volcanic rocks as young as the latest Pleistocene, and perhaps even the Holocene.     

辽西义县组火山岩40Ar/39Ar、K-Ar法年龄测定

义县组为辽西地区广泛分布的陆相火山-沉积地层,义县火山旋回分为 4个亚旋回.含珍稀化石的湖相沉积层与第二亚旋回火山岩伴生.运用激光微区 40Ar/39Ar法、常规 40Ar/39Ar阶段升温测年法和 K- Ar法,对义县旋回火山岩进行了系统的年龄测定,结果表明,直接覆盖义县组底砾岩的义县旋回第一亚旋回第一小旋回玄武岩的 K- Ar年龄为 (133.3± 2.6) Ma、 (133.6± 2.6) Ma,激光微区 40Ar/39Ar法给出的相关性很好的 Ar- Ar等时线年龄为 (132.9± 4.5) Ma,第三、第四小旋回玄武岩样品 40Ar/39Ar阶段升温获得平坦的年龄谱线,坪年龄分别为 (130.6± 0.5) Ma、 (127.7± 0.2) Ma;第二亚旋回玄武岩和流纹质凝灰岩样品 Ar- Ar等时线年龄为 (126.1± 1.7) Ma、 (127.4± 1.3) Ma,第三亚旋回火山岩全岩 K- Ar年龄为 (124.4± 2.4)～ (124.9± 2.4) Ma.义县火山旋回发生的时间大致介于 120～ 135 Ma之间, 义县组的时代应为早白垩世.     

40Ar/39Ar Geochronology of Volcanic and Intrusive Rocks in the Papandayan Metallic Prospect Area,West Java,Indonesia

This study presents new ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar ages on the volcanic and intrusive rocks from the Papandayan metallic district in West Java, Indonesia. The vein system in the Arinem area, one of the prospective areas in the district, has been considered as an epithermal gold–silver–base metal deposit, however, no published age results are available for the host volcanic rocks in the district. The ages of these rocks are critical in terms of their association with mineralization and are important to understand the evolution of volcanism in the region, which has implications for mineral exploration in the district. ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar plateau ages of two typical basalt and one andesite samples of the Jampang Formation volcanic rocks yielded ages of 11.65 ± 0.52 Ma, 18.15 ± 0.46 Ma and 7.69 ± 0.05 Ma, respectively. ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar ages of three intrusive rock samples from Gunung Halang diorite, Gunung Lingga diorite, and Gunung Buligir fine‐grained quartz diorite yielded ages of 12.98 ± 0.20 Ma, 10.81 ± 0.15 Ma, and 7.37 ± 0.05 Ma, respectively. The age of the youngest fine‐grained diorite (Gunung Wayang dike) is 3.95 ± 0.03 Ma. An ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar age obtained from adularia in the Arinem mineralized vein (18.30 ± 0.20 Ma) is older than the age of altered basalt sample of this study (11.65 ± 0.52 Ma) and the K–Ar illite ages of the Arinem vein (9.4 ± 0.3 Ma and 8.8 ± 0.3 Ma) which resulted from a previous study. The age results suggest that the Papandayan district may have experienced multiple hydrothermal and mineralization events. This study, therefore, provides crucial age data to support future mineral exploration in the district.     

中国东部东海地区超高压变质岩构造变形事件的^40Ar／^39Ar定年与超高压变质岩折返过程的重建

近年的研究表明,中国东部东海地区的超高压变质岩在折返过程中,经历了两期构造变形。早期的韧性变形发生在角闪岩相变质作用条件下,晚期的脆韧性变形发生在绿片岩相变质作用条件下。两期构造变形的运动矢量都表现为上盘向南东的运动。对被超高压变质岩构造掩覆的海州磷矿角闪岩相白云斜长片岩中白云母~(40)Ar/~(39)Ar定年,获得的218.0±2.9 Ma的坪年龄和219.8 Ma的等时线年龄,表明早期的角闪岩相变质变形事件发生在约220 Ma。对在第二期构造变形滑脱面上定向生长的角闪石~(40)Ar/~(39)Ar定年,获得了坪年龄为213.1±0.3 Ma,等时线年龄为213.4±4.1Ma,表明了晚期变形事件的可能时代;对在滑脱面附近生长的伟晶黑云母和伟晶钾长石的~(40)Ar/~(39)Ar定年,获得了黑云母的坪年龄为203.4±0.3 Ma和203.6±0.4 Ma,等时线年龄为204.0±2.0 Ma和200.6±3.1Ma;伟晶钾长石的坪年龄为204.8±2.2 Ma,等时线年龄为204.0±5.0 Ma,表明该区这些岩石直到侏罗纪初才冷却到黑云母和钾长石的K-Ar同位素体系的封闭温度。结合前人关于该区超高压变质作用发生在240Ma的年代学资料,推测该区超高压变质岩在240 Ma到220 Ma期间以3～4 km/Ma的折返速率从地幔(地表以下约80～100 km深处)折返到地壳中下部(约20～30 km深处),220 Ma到213     

激光显微探针40Ar/39Ar 定年方法研究

实验结果表明，在激光探针40Ar/36Ar年龄和常规40Ar/39Ar年龄之间有较好的吻合性，多次测定BSP-1角闪石国际标样年龄值大部分在2020-20900Ma之间，多次测定周口店花岗岩中ZBH-25国内标样年龄值大部分在130-135.9Ma。分析区域可小到30μm以下（激光束本身可被聚集到10μm以下）。研究表明，激光显微探针技术在下述工作中将是一个极有前途的工具①测定不易大量获取的样品年龄；②研究遭受多期地质历史事件作用因而有复杂Ar状态的岩石年代；③研究在岩石样品中填充在不同结构位置上的矿物年     

~(40)Ar/~(39)Ar Dating of Deformation Events and Reconstruction of Exhumation of Ultrahigh-Pressure Metamorphic Rocks in Donghai, East China

Recent investigations reveal that the ultrahigh-pressure metamorphic (UHPM) rocks in the Donghai region of East China underwent ductile and transitional ductile-brittle structural events during their exhumation. The earlier ductile deformation took place under the condition of amphibolite facies and the later transitional ductile-brittle deformation under the condition of greenschist facies. The hanging walls moved southeastward during both of these two events. The 40Ar/39Ar dating of muscovites from muscovite-plagioclase schists in the Haizhou phosphorous mine, which are structurally overlain by UHPM rocks, yields a plateau age of 218.0±2.9 Ma and isochron age of 219.8Ma, indicating that the earlier event of the ampibolite-facies deformation probably took place about 220 Ma ago. The 40Ar/39Ar dating of oriented amphiboles parallel to the movement direction of the hanging wall on a decollement plane yields a plateau age of 213.1±0.3 Ma and isochron age of 213.4±4.1 Ma, probably representing the age o     

^Ar／^39Ar Dating of Deformation Events and Reconstruction of Exhumation of Ultrahigh—Pressure Metamorphic Rocks in Donghai,East China

Abstract Recent investigations reveal that the ultrahigh‐pressure metamorphic (UHPM) rocks in the Donghai region of East China underwent ductile and transitional ductile‐brittle structural events during their exhumation. The earlier ductile deformation took place under the condition of amphibolite facies and the later transitional ductile‐brittle deformation under the condition of greenschist facies. The hanging walls moved southeastward during both of these two events. The ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar dating of muscovites from muscovite‐plagioclase schists in the Haizhou phosphorous mine, which are structurally overlain by UHPM rocks, yields a plateau age of 218.0±2.9 Ma and isochron age of 219.8Ma, indicating that the earlier event of the ampibolite‐facies deformation probably took place about 220 Ma ago. The ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar dating of oriented amphiboles parallel to the movement direction of the hanging wall on a decollement plane yields a plateau age of 213.1 ± 0.3 Ma and isochron age of 213.4±4.1 Ma, probably representing the age of the later event. The dating of pegmatitic biotites and K‐feldspars near the decollement plane from the eastern Fangshan area yield plateau ages of 203.4±0.3 Ma, 203.6±0.4 Ma and 204.8±2.2 Ma, and isochron ages of 204.0±2.0 Ma, 200.6±3.1 Ma and 204.0±5.0 Ma, respectively, implying that the rocks in the studied area had not been cooled down to closing temperature of the dated biotites and K‐feldspars until the beginning of the Jurassic (about 204 Ma). The integration of these data with previous chronological ages on the ultrahigh‐pressure metamorphism lead to a new inference on the exhumation of the UHPM rocks. The UHPM rocks in the area were exhumed at the rate of 3–4 km/Ma from the mantle (about 80–100 km below the earth's surface at about 240 Ma) to the lower crust (at the depth of about 20‐30km at 220 Ma), and at the rate of 1–2 km/Ma to the middle crust (at the depth of about 15 km at 213 Ma), and then at the rate of less than 1 km/Ma to the upper crust about 10 km deep at about 204 Ma.     

Amphibole Ar/Ar Geochronology from the Okcheon Metamorphic Belt, South Korea and its Tectonic Implications

An understanding of the Okcheon Metamorphic Belt (OMB) in South Korea is central to unraveling the tectono-metamorphic evolution of East Asia. Amphibole-bearing rocks in the OMB occur as calcsilicate layers and lenses in psammitic rocks, in the psammitic rocks themselves, and in the mafic volcanic layers and intrusives. Most amphiboles fail to show ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar plateau ages; those that do have ages ranging from 132 to 975 Ma. The disturbed age pattern and wide variation in ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar ages can be related to metamorphic grade, retrograde chemical reactions, excess Ar and amphibole composition. The oldest age (975 Ma) can be interpreted either as an old igneous or metamorphic age predating sedimentation or a false age caused by excess Ar. The youngest age of 132 Ma and the disturbed age pattern found in amphiboles from rocks located close to Jurassic granitoids are the result of retrograde thermal metamorphic effects accompanying intrusion of the granitoids. Some medium- or coarse-grained amphiboles in the calcsilicates are aggregates of fine-grained crystals. As a result, they are heterogeneous and prove to be readily affected by excess Ar. A disturbed age pattern in amphiboles from the calcsilicates occurring in the high-grade metamorphic zone may also be the product of excess Ar. On the other hand, the disturbed pattern of amphiboles present in the calcsilicates from the low-grade metamorphic zone could arise from both excess Ar and mixed ages. However, amphiboles from psammitic rocks and some calcsilicates in the high-grade metamorphic zone and in intrusive metabasites display real plateau ages of 237 to 261 Ma. The temperature conditions in the high-grade metamorphic zone were higher than the argon closing temperature for amphibole, and the amphiboles in this zone give plateau ages only when they are homogeneous in composition, lack excess Ar, and have not been thermally affected by intrusion of the granitoids. The unmodified ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar ages prove rather younger than the age of the Late Paleozoic metamorphic event of 280 to 300 Ma, but they are close to muscovite K-Ar ages of 263 to 277 Ma. These ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar amphibole ages are interpreted as the time of cooling that followed the main regional, intermediate-P/T metamorphic climax. The results demonstrate that interpretation of ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar amphibole ages in an area subjected to several metamorphic events can be accomplished only by undertaking a thorough tectono-metamorphic study, accompanied by detailed chemical analysis of the amphiboles.
