矿物成分对东秦岭灰池子复式岩体与花岗伟晶岩成因联系的约束

灰池子复式岩体是东秦岭构造带中规模最大的I型花岗岩,围绕该岩体发育大量赋存稀有金属和铀矿化的花岗伟晶岩脉,二者具有密切的时空联系。然而,灰池子岩体岩浆演化过程尚不清楚,与花岗伟晶岩的成因联系也还存在争论。本研究对灰池子岩体和其东南方向出露的黑云母正长花岗岩中黑云母和长石进行了原位成分分析,结合全岩成分讨论了岩体岩浆演化过程及其与花岗伟晶岩之间的关系。灰池子岩体黑云母二长花岗岩、黑云母花岗闪长岩和英云闪长岩形成压力相似且黑云母离子替代方式相同,说明它们具有演化关系,但氧逸度和SiO₂含量依次升高,温度及FeO^T和MgO含量依次降低,因此黑云母二长花岗岩演化程度最低。此外,从英云闪长岩到黑云母花岗闪长岩中黑云母与碱性长石Rb、Cs含量逐渐升高而Ba含量逐渐降低,说明后者分异程度高于前者。灰池子岩体为低-中分异花岗岩,稀有金属含量较低且在岩浆演化过程中变化不大,可能不具备成为东秦岭稀有金属矿化伟晶岩母岩的条件。另一方面,黑云母正长花岗岩中黑云母离子替代方式不同于灰池子岩体,其形成温度和压力高于灰池子岩体但SiO₂含量低于灰池子岩体,说明二者不存在演化关系。赋存铀矿化的黑云母花岗伟晶岩与黑云母正长花岗岩黑云母离子替代方式相同,而且黑云母花岗伟晶岩具有较高氧逸度和较低形成温度,可能是黑云母正长花岗岩分异晚期的产物。

     

Three-dimensional P- and S-wave velocity structures beneath the Japan Islands obtained by high-density seismic stations by seismic tomography

We construct fine-scale 3D P- and S-wave velocity structures of the crust and upper mantle beneath the whole Japan Islands with a unified resolution, where the Pacific (PAC) and Philippine Sea (PHS) plates subduct beneath the Eurasian (EUR) plate. We can detect the low-velocity (low-V) oceanic crust of the PAC and PHS plates at their uppermost part beneath almost all the Japan Islands. The depth limit of the imaged oceanic crust varies with the regions. High-V_P/V_S zones are widely distributed in the lower crust especially beneath the volcanic front, and the high strain rate zones are located at the edge of the extremely high-V_P/V_S zone; however, V_P/V_S at the top of the mantle wedge is not so high. Beneath northern Japan, we can image the high-V subducting PAC plate using the tomographic method without any assumption of velocity discontinuities. We also imaged the heterogeneous structure in the PAC plate, such as the low-V zone considered as the old seamount or the highly seismic zone within the double seismic zone where the seismic fault ruptured by the earthquake connects the upper and lower layer of the double seismic zone. Beneath central Japan, thrust-type small repeating earthquakes occur at the boundary between the EUR and PHS plates and are located at the upper part of the low-V layer that is considered to be the oceanic crust of the PHS plate. In addition to the low-V oceanic crust, the subducting high-V PAC plate is clearly imaged to depths of approximately 250 km and the subducting high-V PHS zone to depths of approximately 180 km is considered to be the PHS plate. Beneath southwestern Japan, the iso-depth lines of the Moho discontinuity in the PHS plate derived by the receiver function method divide the upper low-V layer and lower high-V layer of our model at depths of 30–50 km. Beneath Kyushu, the steeply subducting PHS plate is clearly imaged to depths of approximately 250 km with high velocities. The high-V_P/V_S zone is considered as the lower crust of the EUR plate or the oceanic crust of the PHS plate at depths of 25–35 km and the partially serpentinized mantle wedge of the EUR plate at depths of 30–45 km beneath southwestern Japan. The deep low-frequency nonvolcanic tremors occur at all parts of the high-V_P/V_S zone—within the zone, the seaward side, and the landward side where the PHS plate encounters the mantle wedge of the EUR plate. We prove that we can objectively obtain the fine-scale 3D structure with simple constraints such as only 1D initial velocity model with no velocity discontinuity.     

华北东部晚中生代区域伸展背景下同构造花岗岩体的起源与就位

花岗质岩浆的起源、迁移及就位是研究大陆岩石圈流变学特性的重要方面。然而,板内伸展背景下同构造花岗岩体的岩浆来源、就位机制和岩浆流动与区域应力场的关系等问题缺乏系统性的总结。晚中生代期间华北板块东部逐渐变为区域伸展体制,同时中浅部地壳形成一系列的韧性剪切带、变质核杂岩和拆离断层,这些伸展构造往往伴有同剪切变形的花岗岩体。因此,华北东部是系统研究板内伸展背景下同构造花岗岩体的最佳区域。本文选取多个典型的同构造花岗岩体,进行综合分析。通过归纳总结这些同构造岩体的岩石地球化学和年代学资料,发现多数同构造岩体具有多个岩浆源区,且较早就位的中性岩席（单元）往往来自壳幔混合岩浆或新生下地壳的部分熔融,而较晚的酸性岩席（单元）则主要来源于古老下地壳的部分熔融。这一特点反映了同伸展岩体岩浆源区由深至浅的演化规律,也揭示了区域伸展背景下源自地幔的流体和热量是触发地壳部分熔融的重要因素。通过分析岩浆就位过程中围岩和岩体中形成的定向及变形组构,发现华北东部同伸展岩体的就位模式可分为三大类：以扁平岩床或岩基形式就位于中部地壳的水平韧性剪切带内;岩浆以近直立运移的方式形成长轴平行拆离断层的岩基,就位于变质核杂岩核部或拆离断层下盘;岩浆就位于再活化的先存断裂,通过膨胀作用、挤压围岩获得就位空间并使围岩变形,形成类似底辟作用的就位方式。剪切应力和浮力是影响岩浆运移方向的重要力学参数。岩浆自源区上升的过程中浮力起着主要控制作用,就位于韧性剪切带时剪切应力起着控制作用,就位于浅部地壳的脆-韧性过渡带时浮力的作用再次凸显。

Sensitivity analysis of seismic hazard for Western Liguria (North Western Italy): A first attempt towards the understanding and quantification of hazard uncertainty

The use of logic trees in probabilistic seismic hazard analyses often involves a large number of branches that reflect the uncertainty in the selection of different models and in the selection of the parameter values of each model. The sensitivity analysis, as proposed by Rabinowitz and Steinberg [Rabinowitz, N., Steinberg, D.M., 1991. Seismic hazard sensitivity analysis: a multi-parameter approach. Bull. Seismol. Soc. Am. 81, 796–817], is an efficient tool that allows the construction of logic trees focusing attention on the parameters that have greater impact on the hazard.In this paper the sensitivity analysis is performed in order to identify the parameters that have the largest influence on the Western Liguria (North Western Italy) seismic hazard. The analysis is conducted for six strategic sites following the multi-parameter approach developed by Rabinowitz and Steinberg [Rabinowitz, N., Steinberg, D.M., 1991. Seismic hazard sensitivity analysis: a multi-parameter approach. Bull. Seismol. Soc. Am. 81, 796–817] and accounts for both mean hazard values and hazard values corresponding to different percentiles (e.g., 16%-ile and 84%-ile). The results are assessed in terms of the expected PGA with a 10% probability of exceedance in 50 years for rock conditions and account for both the contribution from specific source zones using the Cornell approach [Cornell, C.A., 1968. Engineering seismic risk analysis. Bull. Seismol. Soc. Am. 58, 1583–1606] and the spatially smoothed seismicity [Frankel, A., 1995. Mapping seismic hazard in the Central and Eastern United States. Seismol. Res. Lett. 66, 8–21]. The influence of different procedures for calculating seismic hazard, seismic catalogues (epicentral parameters), source zone models, frequency–magnitude parameters, maximum earthquake magnitude values and attenuation relationships is considered. As a result, the sensitivity analysis allows us to identify the parameters with higher influence on the hazard. Only these parameters should be subjected to careful discussion or further research in order to reduce the uncertainty in the hazard while those with little or no effect can be excluded from subsequent logic-tree-based seismic hazard analyses.     

Geochronology and magma oxygen fugacity of Ehu S-type granitic pluton in Zhe-Gan-Wan region,SE China

In this paper, we determined the U-Pb isotopic and trace element compositions of zircons from the Ehu S-type granite in the Zhe-Gan-Wan region, SE China, using in-situ laser ablation (LA) ICP-MS. The weighted mean ²⁰⁶Pb/²³⁸U age of 132.0 ± 0.6 Ma for the Ehu granite indicates that the pluton was formed in the Early Cretaceous and during the Late Mesozoic Cu-Mo mineralization quiescence in Zhe-Gan-Wan region. The calculated logarithmic magma oxygen fugacities for Ehu granite range from −19.19 to −11.43 with an average magma oxidation state of FMQ-0.29, which is much lower than those of Cu-Mo bearing granites in the Zhe-Gan-Wan region. Since Ehu granite was derived from partial melting of metasedimentary basement without fractional crystallization and mantle-derived magma contamination, the low oxidation state of this granite suggests that the assimilation of metasedimentary basement component may not significantly increase the oxidation state of reduced melts from asthenospheric mantle and could not generate oxidized magmas that are favorable for Cu-Mo mineralization.     

Imaging low-velocity anomalies with the aid of seismic tomography

Theoretical considerations (Snell's law) suggest that low-velocity fanomalies are undersampled and therefore should be poorly resolved by inversion schemes based on ray-tracing methods. A synthetic study considering a 40×20 m low-velocity anomaly (300 m/s) placed at the center of a 400×50 m block with gradient background velocity model (from 3000 m/s at the surface to 4000 m/s at the base) indicates that the low ray density in ray-tracing coverage diagrams of tomographic inversion studies can be used as evidence for the existence of low-velocity anomalies. Combined normal incidence seismic reflection images and the velocity models obtained by tomographic inversions of first-arrival travel times form an efficient scheme to resolve low-velocity anomalies such as fracture zones. Furthermore, the velocity models derived from tomographic inversions are used in a wave equation datuming algorithm to account for statics caused by a strongly laterally variable shallow surface (weathering) layer and provide seismic reflection images of fracture zones (low-velocity anomaly) within a granitic pluton.     

福建金山花岗质复式岩体的元素和同位素地球化学及其成因研究

金山复式岩体位于福建南部华安县和南靖县交界地区,为一燕山晚期的花岗质复式大岩基,由早白垩世早期的华安洋竹径单元（锆石U-Pb年龄为140.3±1.2Ma）和早白垩世晚期的南靖龙山单元（锆石U-Pb年龄为105.1±0.8Ma）组成。复式岩体东部的洋竹径单元主体岩性为中粒钾长花岗岩,在中心部位发育部分黑云母花岗岩,地球化学特征上,该单元岩石总体为弱过铝质（A/NKC值变化于1.00~1.05）,富硅,碱含量中等（K2O+Na2O介于8.30%~8.84%）,碱铝指数（AKI值）变化于0.80~0.90,富钾（K2O含量变化于4.59%~5.58%,K2O/Na2O比值介于1.18~1.95）,富轻稀土和大离子亲石元素（如Rh、Th等）,贫Ba、Sr、Ti、P,Rb/Sr比值高,具中到强的铕负异常。复式岩体西部的龙山单元主体岩性为黑云母二长花岗岩,与洋竹径单元相比,其硅、碱含量及Rb/Sr比值均相对偏低,轻重稀土比值更高,而铕负异常相对不明显。复式岩体各单元岩石的Ga/Al比值以及Zr、Nb、Ce、Y等高场强元素含量较之典型的A型花岗岩均偏低,综合地质地球化学资料指示该复式岩体应属高钾钙碱性I型花岗岩。洋竹径单元黑云母花岗岩和钾长花岗岩具有一致的Nd同位素组成,Nd(t)值分别为-1.13和-1.16~-1.94,表明它们具有相同的岩浆源区,二者应为同源岩浆经分异演化的产物。龙山单元的成岩年龄晚于洋竹径单元,Nd(t)值略低（＝-2.22）,其岩石学和元素地球化学特征与洋竹径单元存在较明显的差别,相关的元素演变趋势表明龙山单元不可能为洋竹径单元岩浆分异演化的产物,而应具独立的岩浆起源。金山复式岩体极可能是在弧后伸展背景下,由于持续的幔源岩浆底侵作用导致早期底侵物质（初生地壳）与古老基底地壳混合的地壳原岩叠次熔融复合的产物。     

新疆东准噶尔野马泉花岗岩体的年龄和地球化学特征

新疆东准噶尔野马泉花岗岩体是一个主要由花岗闪长岩、二长花岗岩和碱长花岗岩组成的复式花岗岩体。三种岩石的锆石U-Pb年龄在误差范围内有很好的一致性(～300Ma),指示野马泉岩体是在晚石炭世侵位的,也属于东准噶尔地区后碰撞阶段的岩浆作用产物。元素地球化学组成表明,花岗闪长岩、二长花岗岩和碱长花岗岩均属于准铝质,其主量元素和微量元素如CaO、Al2O3、Na2O、K2O、Rb、Sr与SiO2之间有明显的线性关系,三种岩石在不相容元素蛛网图和稀土元素配分模式上均表现出相似的特征,Eu负异常程度也随着SiO2含量的增加而提高。此外,野马泉岩体不同岩石有非常近似的Hf同位素组成,其εHf(t)值为+11.8～+12.7。因此,年龄结果和地球化学特征说明,野马泉复式花岗岩体很可能是由同源岩浆通过一定的岩浆演化形成的。     

Identification of karst features using seismic P-wave tomography and resistivity anisotropy measurements

A football stadium with a capacity of a hundred thousand spectators is under construction over a karst terrain, 10 km west of the old town of Istanbul, Turkey. A large cavity of approximately 30 m³ was detected beneath the sports field through a number of boreholes so that a geophysical survey was required to further investigate a portion of the sports field. We utilized seismic refraction tomography and dc-electrical method with rotated Wenner array to delineate zones with solution voids and cavities. Total core recovery (TCR) was 5–15% from boreholes where zones with low velocities were identified through tomographic inversion, whereas TCR values were above 60% in zones with higher velocities. Both low velocity zones in the tomographic images and increasing resistivity anisotropy with depth appear to indicate that the cavity extends toward the west and south at a depth of approximately 8 m, although the southward and westward extension changes in character.

Geochemistry of S-type granitic rocks from the reversely zoned Castelo Branco pluton (central Portugal)

The zoned pluton from Castelo Branco consists of Variscan peraluminous S-type granitic rocks. A muscovite>biotite granite in the pluton's core is surrounded successively by biotite>muscovite granodiorite, porphyritic biotite>muscovite granodiorite grading to biotite=muscovite granite, and finally by muscovite>biotite granite. ID-TIMS U–Pb ages for zircon and monazite indicate that all phases of the pluton formed at 310 ± 1 Ma. Whole-rock analyses show slight variation in ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr_310 Ma between 0.708 and 0.712, Nd_310 Ma values between − 1 and − 4 and δ¹⁸O values between 12.2 and 13.6. These geological, mineralogical, geochemical and isotopic data indicate a crustal origin of the suite, probably from partial melting of heterogeneous Early Paleozoic pelitic country rock. In detail there is evidence for derivation from different sources, but also fractional crystallization linking some of internal plutonic phases. Least-squares analysis of major elements and modelling of trace elements indicate that the porphyritic granodiorite and biotite=muscovite granite were derived from the granodiorite magma by fractional crystallization of plagioclase, quartz, biotite and ilmenite. By contrast variation diagrams of major and trace elements in biotite and muscovite, the behaviours of Ba in microcline and whole-rock δ¹⁸O, the REE patterns of rocks and isotopic data indicate that both muscovite-dominant granites were probably originated by two distinct pulses of granite magma.     

新疆阿尔泰地区辉腾花岗岩体年代学、地球化学特征及构造意义

中阿尔泰构造带出露大面积晚三叠世花岗岩,对其进行详细的研究是了解阿尔泰造山带构造演化和陆壳增生过程的重要途径。本研究对侵入于中元古界苏普特岩群的辉腾花岗岩体进行详细的岩石学、锆石U-Pb年代学、岩石地球化学及Sr-Nd同位素研究。研究结果显示,辉腾花岗岩体主要岩石类型有似斑状碱长花岗岩、似斑状正长花岗岩和似斑状二长花岗岩。LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb年代学研究结果表明,其形成时代为202.3±2.2Ma(MSWD=0.81),为晚三叠世。岩石具有高SiO_2、Al_2O_3、ALK,低TiO_2、MnO、MgO、P_2O_5的特征,轻稀土富集、轻重稀土分馏明显,具有Eu的负异常,富集Cs、Rb、Th、La、Ce、Nd等元素,亏损Ba、Sr、P、Ti等元素,显示出I-A型花岗岩的特征,具有负的εNd(t)(-1.2~-0.3)特征和较老的两阶段模式(t2DM)年龄(1.04~1.08Ga)。综合分析认为,该岩体为富含黑云母的变泥质岩和少量变杂砂岩在低压、高温条件下脱水熔融形成,源区有富钙斜长石、钛铁矿和磷灰石的残留,同时幔源物质有少量混入,是阿尔泰造山带板内构造演化阶段的产物。     

湘东南东风岩体锆石U-Pb年代学、Hf同位素组成及稀土矿床特征

文章对湘东南地区的东风岩体进行了锆石LA-ICPMS U-Pb年龄、Hf同位素以及岩石地球化学分析,以研究岩石成因及形成构造背景,并对东风风化壳离子吸附型重稀土矿的成因进行了探讨。东风岩体2件二长花岗岩的锆石U-Pb年龄为（433.5±2.6）Ma和（432.0±2.5）Ma,显示为加里东晚期。东风岩体锆石ε_Hf (t)值介于-5.12~-7.45,计算得到二阶段地幔亏损模式年龄（T_DM2）介于1714~1882 Ma,显示其成岩物质为壳源的特征。东风岩体的地球化学特征显示其为高钾钙碱性、强过铝质的花岗岩,在成因类型判别图解中显示为S型花岗岩,构造背景判别图解显示为后碰撞构造环境。综合东风岩体花岗岩的地球化学特征和Hf同位素特征,笔者认为,东风岩体形成于扬子板块与华夏板块陆内汇聚的后碰撞伸展环境,为增厚地壳减压熔融和软流圈地幔上涌诱发古老地壳物质重熔形成的S型花岗岩。东风稀土矿床为一个由富轻稀土元素的母岩经风化后形成的大型重稀土矿床,富含稀土元素的高Y型花岗岩母岩为矿床的形成提供了重要物质基础,气候及地形地貌条件为稀土元素发生淋滤迁移和吸附富集提供了重要保证。     

Mantle dynamics of Western Pacific and East Asia: Insight from seismic tomography and mineral physics

Recent results of high-resolution seismic tomography and mineral physics experiments are used to study mantle dynamics of Western Pacific and East Asia. The most important processes in subduction zones are the shallow and deep slab dehydration and the convective circulation (corner flow) processes in the mantle wedge. The combination of the two processes may have caused the back-arc spreading in the Lau basin, affected the morphology of the subducting Philippine Sea slab and its seismicity under southwest Japan, and contributed to the formation of the continental rift system and intraplate volcanism in Northeast Asia, which are clearly visible in our tomographic images. Slow anomalies are also found in the mantle under the subducting Pacific slab, which may represent (a) small mantle plumes, (b) upwellings associated with the slab collapsing down to the lower mantle, or (c) sub-slab dehydration associated with deep earthquakes caused by the reactivation of large faults preserved in the slab. Combining tomographic images and earthquake hypocenters with phase diagrams in the systems of peridotite + water, we proposed a petrologic model for arc volcanism. Arc magmas are caused by the dehydration reactions of hydrated slab peridotite that supply water-rich fluids to the mantle wedge and cause partial melting of the convecting mantle wedge. A large amount of fluids can be released from hydrated MORB at depths shallower than 55 km, which move upwards to hydrate the wedge corner under the fore-arc, and never drag down to the deeper mantle along the slab surface. Slab dehydration reactions at 120 km depth are the antigorite-related 5 reactions which supply water-rich fluids for forming the volcanic front. Phase A and Mg-surssasite breakdown reactions at 200 and 300 km depths below 700 °C cause the second and third arcs, respectively. Moreover, the dehydration reactions of super-hydrous phase B, phases D and E at 500–660 km depths cause the fluid transportation to the mantle boundary layer (MBL) (410–660 km depth). The stagnant slabs extend from Japan to Beijing, China for over 1000 km long, indicating that the arc–trench system covers the entire region from the Japan trench to East Asia. We propose a big mantle wedge (BMW) model herein, where hydrous plumes originating from 410 km depth cause a series of intra-continental hot regions. Fluids derived from MBL accumulated by the double-sided subduction zones, rather than the India–Asia collision and the subsequent indentation into Asia, are the major cause for the active tectonics and mantle dynamics in this broad region.

为了探测苏鲁超高压变质带的岩石圈结构实施了山东日照到滨洲剖面的宽频带地震探测,于2003～2005年使用REFTER130-01型和CMG-6TD型三分量地震仪(频宽50～60s).以10～25km间距布设了25个台站观测近三年时间.由远震地震层析反演结果得到了华北板块、超高压变质带、扬子板块清晰的P波速度图像.华北板块具有简单的低速体形态,越过郯庐断裂向超高压变质带扩张,并平稳地由郯庐断裂向北延伸直到黄河以北的古城镇.Moho面和岩石圈深度分别为30～35km,75～80km;扬子板块为高速体,界于两者之间的苏鲁超高压变质带地壳的平均速度大于两侧板块,剖面上从日照到五莲-烟台断裂范围内除地壳为高速体外,30～60km深度范围内有一个高速体和一个低速体拼会在一起,构成了超高压变质带岩石圈最突出的构造特征.此高速体应为榴辉橄榄岩等超基性岩组成,它可能属于折返回来又被移动的超高压变质岩组合体,并与华北板块基底直接接触,超高压变质带的下界面深度为60km.下界面平直,可能意味着正在消退的造山带的山根,或是造山带的下一层Moho面?郯庐断裂带地壳出露的共四条带,比较陡的产状向深部延伸,并逐步向南倾,TLF2～TLF4在岩石圈底界处合并.     

Integration of P- and SH-wave high-resolution seismic reflection and micro-gravity techniques to improve interpretation of shallow subsurface structure: New Madrid seismic zone

Shallow high-resolution seismic reflection surveys have traditionally been restricted to either compressional (P) or horizontally polarized shear (SH) waves in order to produce 2-D images of subsurface structure. The northernmost Mississippi embayment and coincident New Madrid seismic zone (NMSZ) provide an ideal laboratory to study the experimental use of integrating P- and SH-wave seismic profiles, integrated, where practicable, with micro-gravity data. In this area, the relation between “deeper” deformation of Paleozoic bedrock associated with the formation of the Reelfoot rift and NMSZ seismicity and “shallower” deformation of overlying sediments has remained elusive, but could be revealed using integrated P- and SH-wave reflection. Surface expressions of deformation are almost non-existent in this region, which makes seismic reflection surveying the only means of detecting structures that are possibly pertinent to seismic hazard assessment. Since P- and SH-waves respond differently to the rock and fluid properties and travel at dissimilar speeds, the resulting seismic profiles provide complementary views of the subsurface based on different levels of resolution and imaging capability. P-wave profiles acquired in southwestern Illinois and western Kentucky (USA) detect faulting of deep, Paleozoic bedrock and Cretaceous reflectors while coincident SH-wave surveys show that this deformation propagates higher into overlying Tertiary and Quaternary strata. Forward modeling of micro-gravity data acquired along one of the seismic profiles further supports an interpretation of faulting of bedrock and Cretaceous strata. The integration of the two seismic and the micro-gravity methods therefore increases the scope for investigating the relation between the older and younger deformation in an area of critical seismic hazard.     

Identification of the Early Jurassic mylonitic granitic pluton and tectonic implications in Namling area,southern Tibet

A number of studies revealed that the Gangdese magmatic belt of southern Tibet was closely related to the northward subduction of the Neo-Tethys oceanic lithosphere and Indo-Asian collision.However,pre-Cretaceous magmatism is still poorly constrained in the Gangdese magmatic belt,southern Tibet.Here,we conducted systematically geochronology and geochemistry studies on a newly-identified granitic pluton in the middle Gangdese magmatic belt(Namling area),southern Tibet.Zircon SHRIMPⅡU-Pb dating for one representative sample gives a weighted age of 184.2±1.8 Ma(MSWD=±1.11),corresponding to emplacement and crystallization age of the granitic pluton in the Early Jurassic(Pliensbachian).High SiO2(68.9-72.1 wt.%)contents and intermediate Mg#values(35-38)together suggest that the newly-identified granitic pluton was probably formed by partial melting of crustal material with minor injection of mantle-derived magma,precluding an origin from melting of metasedimentary rocks that are characterized by low Mg#and high zirconδ^18O values(>8‰).Geochemically,the newly-identified granitic pluton belongs to typical I-type granitic affinity,whereas this is inconsistent with aluminium saturation index(ASI=A/CNK ratios)and geochemical signatures.This suggests that zircon oxygen isotopes(4.30‰-5.28‰)and mineral features(lacking Al-rich minerals)are reliable indicators for discriminating granitic origin.Significantly depleted whole-rock Sr-Nd-Hf isotopic compositions and zirconεHf(t)values indicate that the granitic pluton was derived from partial melting of depleted arc-type lavas.In addition,the granitic pluton shows zirconδ^18O values ranging from 4.30‰to 5.28‰(with a mean value of 4.77‰)that are consistent with mantle-derived zircon values(5.3‰±0.6‰)within the uncertainties,indicating that the granitic pluton might have experienced weak short-living high-temperature hydrous fluid-rock interaction.Combined with the Sr-Nd-Hf-O isotopes and geochemical signatures,we propose that the newly-identified granitic pluton was originated from partial melting of depleted mafic lower crust,and experienced only negligible wall-rock contamination during ascent.Integrated with published data,we also propose that the initial subduction of the Neo-Tethys oceanic lithosphere occurred no later than the Pliensbachian of the Early Jurassic.     

太行山构造带及其以东地区上地幔地震层析成像

基于首都圈地区及河北邯郸台网共115个台站记录的地方震、近震和远震P波和S波走时,利用地震层析成像技术得到了太行山构造带及其以东地区下方300km深度范围内的P、S波速度结构。结果发现沿太行山构造带速度结构在上地幔中存在明显的横向不均匀性,其南、中、北段显示了各自不同的构造特征。太行山以东盆地区岩石圈厚度较薄,在约80km深度进入地幔软流层,但在160km深度下,P波和S波速度结构呈现较大差异,其中P波在华北东部地区逐渐以高速为主,而S波速度剖面上虽然低速体被切割,但仍然保持了大部分地区的相对低速。深部结构揭示,太行山中段受华北地区岩石圈减薄过程作用最为强烈,其速度结构与盆地区更为相似。而南段构造作用与浅部断裂关系明显,深部可能更多地保留了构造造山带岩石圈厚度大,高速介质多的特征。太行山北段处于多构造交界地区,速度结构比较复杂,部分S波低速区可能与深部地幔物质上涌作用有关。
