鞍山地区营城子古太古代片麻岩杂岩的识别与锆石U-Pb年代学研究

鞍山地区分布有始太古代-新太古代花岗岩杂岩,是研究早期地壳物质组成及其演化的经典地区之一.通过大比例尺岩性调查工作,新近在营城子识别出一套片麻岩杂岩和奥长花岗岩组合,为本区古老岩系的对比、构造格局恢复、太古代地壳形成与演化研究提供了新的依据和线索.片麻岩杂岩主要由条带状黑云斜长片麻岩、(脉状)奥长花岗质片麻岩以及黑云母片岩组成,呈不同规模的包体产出于细粒、均匀块状的奥长花岗岩之中.片麻岩杂岩的岩石组合以及复杂多变、明显不均一的岩石组构特征表明具有深熔混合岩的成因特点.SIMS锆石U-Pb定年表明,片麻岩杂岩中条带状黑云斜长片麻岩和黑云母片岩形成年龄分别为3312±14Ma、3304±7Ma和3324±7Ma～3235±14Ma,明确反映古太古代热事件,此外个别样品中存在3.68～3.60Ga和～3.47Ga继承锆石.细粒黑云奥长花岗岩的年龄为3.14～ 3.13Ga,与全区中太古代岩浆热事件一致.区域对比分析表明:营城子片麻岩杂岩的岩石组合、产状关系和年代学特征与东山杂岩和深沟寺杂岩十分相似,为古大古代(3.33 ～3.24Ga)深熔作用的产物.营城子片麻岩杂岩是鞍山地区另一个保留有古老锆石信息和太古宙早期地壳岩石的地质体.     

冀西北晚太古代岩石单元的地质关系: 对早期陆壳形成的指示

冀西北地区出露晚太古代桑干杂岩和崇礼杂岩构成的灰色片麻岩(TTG片麻岩)-麻粒岩地体和红旗营子群角闪岩相变质火山沉积岩系.本文对尚义地区红旗营子群中变质火山岩中的变玄武安山岩(角闪斜长片麻岩)进行了锆石LAMC-ICPMS定年,获得207 Pb/206Pb加权平均年龄2528±12Ma(2σ,MSWD=0.1,n=34),这一年龄代表了该岩石的形成时代.虽然这一年龄非常接近灰色片麻岩的形成时代,野外地质关系指示红旗营子群的形成早于灰色片麻岩及其中的闪长质侵入体.在灰色片麻岩分布区,红旗营子群和一些变质辉长质岩石呈岩片、透镜体或者“岩墙”状分布.变质辉长质透镜体或者“岩墙”状岩片以周边发育串珠状小透镜体,以及不见细粒边部和岩墙“手指”可以与该区分布的早元古代变质基性岩墙相区别.这些变辉长质岩石可能是红旗营子群火山岩系根部或者岩浆房的残留体,也可能部分是更早期地壳的残片.红旗营子群火山岩系的岩石化学特征可以和灰色片麻岩及闪长质片麻岩岩体分别进行对比.地(桑干杂岩和崇礼杂岩)组成了该地区晚太古代大陆二维地壳结构.认识这种地壳结构在空间上的延续性,并识别相关地质单元在时代和物质上的演化关系,可以揭示华北克拉通晚太古代大陆地壳的形成机制.

鞍山地区太古宙早期地壳生长及重熔——来自始-古太古代片麻岩杂岩的岩石学及年代学证据

本文报道了鞍山地区新厘定的一套始—古太古代片麻岩杂岩的岩石学特征及锆石U-Pb年代学数据,以探讨太古宙早期地壳的形成及演化过程。杂岩在全区广泛分布,野外以包体形式产于约3.1Ga细粒奥长花岗岩之中。主要包括始太古代奥长花岗岩/石英闪长岩和古太古代片麻岩杂岩两个岩石单元,前者呈透镜体产出于后者之中。始太古代奥长花岗岩/石英闪长岩部分遭受变质作用改造,但整体较好地保留了岩浆结构及构造,其年龄为3.77~3.81Ga,锆石εHf(t)值大于0,表明其为玄武质岩石经部分熔融形成的新生地壳。古太古代片麻岩杂岩由条带状片麻岩、浅色奥长花岗质片麻岩、黑云母片岩及少量斜长角闪岩等组成,岩石类型多样且组构复杂、不均一,受到塑性流变变形作用的改造,为地壳深部层次下变质-深熔作用的产物,各岩石锆石U-Pb年龄相近,为3.29~3.36Ga,锆石εHf(t)值小于0,表明其来源于始太古代古老地壳的重熔。杂岩记录了~3.8Ga、3.7~3.4Ga以及~3.3Ga等多期岩浆-构造热事件,其中~3.8Ga和~3.3Ga分别代表本区主要的两期地壳生长和地壳重熔事件。多期次地壳生长和重熔可能是早期地壳演化的主要机制及过程,这与全球多个太古宙地体类似。

Mineralkogical and Petrochemical Characterisitics and Genesis of Laoniugou Geneiss in Jiapigou Gold Mine,Jilin Province

Detailed mineralogical and petrochemical studies show that the Laoniugou gneiss of the Jiapigou gold mine is composed mainly of plagioclase gneiss and irregular to lentiform plagioclase amphibolite melanic enclaves.The major element contents show an obvious bimodal and trondhjemitic series evolutional trend.This situation is significantly different from that encountered in bimodal calc-alkalic volcanic rocks in the rift-type Archaean greenstone belt.The contents of Rb,Sr and Ba are 7-21 ppm,153-363ppm and 201-1451 ppm respectively ,close to those of common Archaean grey gneisses.All the samples of plagioclase gneisses show positive Eu anomalies (even up to 4.6).The protoliths of the plagioclase gneiss are high-Al2O3 trondhjemitic series rocks,belonging to typical TTG of Archaean high-grade metamorphic terrain .The gneiss is quite similar to the B-type Amitsoq gneiss of W.Greenland .The authors believe that the plagioclase amphibolite enclaves are the relics of ancient oceanic crust while the plagioclase gneiss is the TTG ancient intrusive rock resulting from partial melting of the oceanic crust.     

On the origin of early Archaean gneisses: A reply

The use of metamorphosed basic dykes as one of the most important single field criteria for subdividing gneisses in high grade areas into different chronological units is defended. The universal applicability of the lower greenstone-granite-upper greenstone model to all Archaean terrains is questioned using documented sequences of events in the North Atlantic craton. We prefer a chronology based on field criteria to one based on the application of theoretical crustal development models taken from one tectonic environment and used to explain the sequence of events in another.It is shown that the average K₂O and Rb content from the 3600 m.y. sialic rocks of the North Atlantic craton ranges between 2.26 (Amîtsoq grey gneisses, Greenland) to 2.66 (Uivak grey gneisses, Labrador). Average K/Rb ratios are respectively 200 and 177, Rb/Sr, 0.33 and 0.29 for the two areas. K and Rb values are thus markedly higher than those reported from most other Archaean gneiss suites. Secondary redistribution of K and Rb at about 3600 m.y. is demonstrated by the documentation of the massive addition of these elements to basic rocks included in the gneisses. Whole sale addition of alkalies during migmatisation to the level of crust now exposed is postulated as one explanation of the unusually high K and Rb contents. It is argued on statistical grounds that if Rb metasomatism occurred it is not possible to use low initial Sr ratios alone to preclude the possibility that part of the Archaean gneiss complexes consist of tonalitic gneiss which are much older than conventional Sr₀ interpretations allow.     

Rb-Sr and Sm-Nd ages and isotopic geochemistry of Archaean granodioritic gneisses from Eastern Finland

Twenty granodioritic rocks and one amphibolitic enclave of the “basement” of the Suomussalmi-Kuhmo Archaean (2.65 Ga) greenstone belts (central-eastern Finland), have been chosen together with one greenstone sample for Rb-Sr and Sm-Nd geochronological and isotopic studies.The granitoïd rocks are subdivided into three groups: two generations of grey gneisses and a post-belt augen gneiss. The Rb-Sr ages of the first and second generation of grey gneisses are 2.86 ± 0.09 and 2.62 ± 0.07 Ga, respectively. These results are corroborated by Sm-Nd data. The post-belt augen gneiss gives an age of 2.51 ± 0.11 Ga. The results show that the two generations of grey gneisses, the greenstone belts and the post-greenstone augen gneiss, were developed over a period > 350 Ma. The two generations of grey gneisses show identical I_Sr values (0.7023 ± 8 and 0.7024 ± 6) which contrast with that of the augen gneiss (0.7049 ± 8). The low I_Sr and the near-chondritic ?_T^CHUR values indicate that the grey gneisses cannot derived from much older continental materials. Trace element studies suggest that these grey gneisses have had a multi-stage development. The augen gneiss with a moderately high I_Sr is likely to be derived from a granodiorite originated by partial melting of older sialic crust. The more probable parent rock seems to be the first generation grey gneisses. The I_Sr and average Rb/Sr values preclude the greenstone belt and the second generation of grey gneisses as the protolith.     

Alteration and metamorphism of Amitsoq gneisses from the Isukasia area,West Greenland: Recommendations for isotope studies of the early crust

Early Archaean gneisses (3400–3700 Ma) in the Isukasia area of West Greenland have been subjected to a series of local and regional metamorphic processes. Metasomatic alteration accompanied the intrusion of the early Archaean white gneisses (~3600 Ma) into the grey gneisses (~3700 Ma), and resulted in local formation of altered rocks. Pb-Pb isotope results on whole rock and feldspar from the gneisses reveal a major rearrangement of Pb isotopes at about 2600 Ma together with some local third stage Pb changes at a later time. This 2600 Ma event is also shown by Rb-Sr data for phengites in the ~3400 Ma Pegmatitic gneiss sheets and can be correlated with metamorphism accompanying the intrusion of a late Archaean pegmatite (~2600 Ma) swarm. Local hydrothermal alteration by fluids emanating from Proterozoic faults and fractures is petrographically recognised in and near major faults and lithological boundaries. This fault-controlled alteration, though only locally significant, may correlate with low grade thermal metamorphism reflected in a 1600 Ma Rb-Sr mineral isochron on biotites from both altered and unaltered gneisses. Oxygen isotope results show that this alteration probably was associated with influx of a low-δ¹⁸O fluid, perhaps meteoric water. Selection of the least altered Amitsoq gneisses can be made on the basis of petrographic and field criteria, and furnishes the best material to study original geochemical and isotopic systematics in these early Archaean rocks.

On the origin of early Archaean gneisses

Bridgwater and Collerson are congratulated on their important contributions to the knowledge of early Archaean terrains in Labrador and southwestern Greenland. Many of the interpretations advanced in their paper (Bridgwater and Collerson, 1976) throw much light on the evolution of deep-seated Archaean crustal domains. Other interpretations, however, raise a number of questions, discussed below in the following terms; (1) nature of original field relations between Uivak gneiss and Upernavik supracrustals; (2) timing of development of K-feldspar bands in Uivak gneiss; (3) isotopic effects of Rb-addition associated with the development of the K-feldspar bands; (4) crustal history of Uivak gneiss precursors, and (5) relations between gneisses of high-grade terrains and granites of low-grade terrains in the Archaean. In each case, the questions are accompanied by suggested tentative interpretations.     

Geochronology of an archaean tonalitic gneiss dome in Northern Finland and its relation with an unusual overlying volcanic conglomerate and komatiitic greenstone

Archaean gneiss-greenstone relationships are still unresolved in many ancient cratonic terrains although there is growing evidence that most of the late Archaean greenstone assemblages were deposited on older tonalitic crust.We report here well defined basement-cover relationships from a late Archaean greenstone belt in Lapland, north of the Polar Circle. The basal greenstone sequence contains quartzite, schist, komatiitic volcanics and an unusual volcanic conglomerate with well preserved granite pebbles of an older basement. These rocks surround a gneiss dome composed of foliated tonalite which shows a polyphase deformation pattern not seen in the neighbouring greenstones.Zircon fractions of the gneisses plot on two discordia lines and give upper intercept ages with concordia at 3,069±16 Ma and 3,110±17 Ma respectively. One fraction contains metamict zircons with components at least 3,135 Ma old. These are the oldest reliable ages yet reported from the Archaean of the Baltic Shield. Rb-Sr whole-rock dating of the tonalitic gneiss yielded an isochron age of 2,729±122 Ma and an I_Sr of 0.703±0.001. This is interpreted to reflect a resetting event during which the gneisses may have acquired their present tectonic fabric.Rb-Sr model age calculations yield mantle values for I_Sr at about 2,950±115 Ma and suggest that the tonalite was intruded into the crust as juvenile material at about 3.1 Ga ago as reflected by the zircon ages. It was subsequently deformed and isotopically reset at about 2.7 Ga ago, prior to greenstone deposition.Comparison with tonalitic gneisses of eastern Karelia displays significant differences and suggests that the Archaean of Finland may contain several generations of pre-greenstone granitoid rocks.     

Two Types of Archaean Grey Gneiss in North China and Their Geological Significance1,2

Abstract Grey gneisses are tonalitic intrusive rocks that have Archaean characteristics and tectonic significance. Archaean grey gneisses in North China may be classified into two types: the Zunhua type and the Hengshan type. Grey gneisses of the Zunhua type alternate with basic granulites, forming a bimodal migmatitic suite. The rock is characterized by complex mineral composition, highly varied REE patterns and positive Eu anomaly and originated from autochthonous or partly autochthonous deep - level migmatization with a high degree (30% ±) of fusion. As the sub - stratum in the root of the early - stage high - grade greenstone belt, they prevented basic rocks from sinking. Grey gneisses of the Hengshan type are characterized by a relatively distinct intrusion form, large - amplitude upward emplacement, rather simple mineral composition, only slight changes of REE patterns and absence of Eu anomaly. The rock is a product of subduction and underthrusting of the high - grade greenstone belt and then fusion and emplacement with a low degree (15% ±) of fusion. In this paper an attempt is made to furnish important information about palaeoplate tectonics and early crustal evolution by means of a study of grey gneisses.     

Early Archaean Amîtsoq tonalites and granites of the Isukasia area,southern West Greenland: development of the oldest-known sial

Amphibolite facies early Archaean Amîtsoq gneisses envelop and intrude the c. 3,800 Ma Isua supracrustal belt, Isukasia area, southern West Greenland. Most of these gneisses are strongly deformed, but in a c. 75 km² augen of lower deformation, the Amîtsoq gneisses are seen to comprise predominantly 3,750–3,700 Ma tonalitic grey gneisses that were intruded first by thin bodies of mafic to dioritic composition, known collectively as the Inaluk dykes, and then by c. 3,600 Ma white gneisses and finally by sporadic c. 3,400 Ma pegmatitic gneiss sheets. The grey gneisses could have formed by partial melting of crust consisting predominantly of basic rocks. The Inaluk dykes are interpreted as strongly fractionated basic melts of mantle origin, contaminated by crustal material. The white gneisses consist mostly of medium grained granite and occur as lenses and anastomosing sheets throughout their host of grey gneisses with subordinate inclusions of supracrustal rocks. The white gneisses have chemistry compatible with formation by partial melting at depth of a source dominated by grey gneisses. The igneous chemistry, including REE abundances, of the grey gneisses and white gneisses has been modified to varying degrees by metasomatism and assimilation reactions during the crystallisation of the white gneisses and also during subsequent tectonometamorphic events. The white gneisses are evidence for considerable reworking by anatexis of sialic crust in the early Archaean, 150 to 100 Ma after its formation. The white gneisses and the pegmatitic gneisses show that granitic rocks s.s. were important in the earliest Archaean, and are further evidence of the diversity of the oldest-known sial.Previously at and the Geological Survey of Greenland, Øster Voldgade 10, 1350 Copenhagen K, Denmark     

A new fragment of the early earth crust: the Aasivik terrane of West Greenland

The Aasivik terrane is a ∼1500 km² complex of gneisses dominated by ∼3600 Ma components, which has been discovered in the Archaean craton of West Greenland, ∼20–50 km south of the Paleoproterozoic Nagssugtoqidian orogen. The Aasivik terrain comprises granulite facies tonalitic to granitic gneisses with bands of mafic granulite, which include disrupted mafic dykes. Four gneiss samples of the Aasivik terrain have given imprecise SHRIMP U–Pb zircon ages of 3550–3780 Ma with strong loss of radiogenic lead and new growth of zircon probably associated with a granulite facies metamorphic event(s) at ∼2800–2700 Ma. To the Southeast, the Aasivik terrane is in tectonic contact with a late Archaean complex of granitic and metapelitic gneisses with apparently randomly distributed mafic and ultramafic units, here named the Ukaleq gneiss complex. Two granitic samples from the Ukaleq gneiss complex have U–Pb zircon ages of 2817 ± 10 and 2820 ± 12 Ma and t_zircon ε_Nd values of 2.3–5.4. Given their composition and positive ε_Nd values, they probably represent melts of only slightly older juvenile crust. A reconnaissance SHRIMP U–Pb study of a sample of metasedimentary rock from the Ukaleq gneiss complex found ∼2750–2900 Ma zircons of probable detrital origin and that two or more generations of 2700–2500 Ma metamorphic zircons are present. This gneiss complex is provisionally interpreted as a late Archaean accretionary wedge. A sample of banded granulite facies gneiss from a complex of banded gneisses south of the Aasivik terrain here named the Tasersiaq gneiss complex has yielded two zircon populations of 3212 ± 11 and 3127 ± 12 Ma. Contacts between the three gneiss complexes are mylonites which are locally cut by late-post-kinematic granite veins with SHRIMP U–Pb zircon ages of ∼2700 Ma. The isotopic character and the relationships between the lithologies from the different gneiss complexes suggest the assembly of unrelated rocks along shear zones between 2800 and 2700 Ma. The collage of Archaean gneiss complexes were intruded by A-type granites, here named the Umiatsiaasat granites, at ∼2700 Ma, later than the tectonic intercalation of the gneiss complexes.
