Petrogenesis of the Bondla layered mafic-ultramafic complex,Usgaon, Goa

The Bondla mafic-ultramafic complex is a layered intrusion that consists predominantly of peridotites and gabbronorites. A chromitite-pyroxenite-troctolite horizon serves as a marker to subdivide the intrusion into two zones. The Lower Zone displays gravity stratified layers of chromite that alternate with those of olivine, which up-section are followed by olivine+pyroxene-chromite cumulates. The Upper Zone comprises gabbroic rocks that exhibit uniform layering. On the basis of modal and cryptic variation exhibited by the minerals this zone can be subdivided in to several lithohorizons starting from the troctolites at the base to gabbronorites and leucogabbros at the top. The junction between the two zones is marked by the distinct reversal in cryptic variation exhibited by the chromites and pyroxenes. The peridotite chromites contain higher Al₂O₃ and lower Cr₂O₃ than those from the chromitite above. Similarly clinopyroxenes from pyroxenite and troctolites are more magnesian that those from the peridotites stratigraphically below them. The complex in general is characterized by a gabbroic mineral assemblage in which both Ca-rich and Capoor pyroxenes coexist and displays a Fe-enrichment trend providing evidence of evolution from a contaminated tholeiitic magma. The rocks are characterized by low-TiO₂; Ni, Cr and V, show negative correlation with Zr whereas the large ion lithophile elements (LILE) are positively correlated and the Nb/La ratio varies from 0.4–0.6. These characteristics are consistent with a low-TiO₂ sub-alkaline tholeiitic magma that may have been modified by fractional crystallization and successive injections of more primitive melts in the magma chamber. The complex evolved in a periodically replenished magma chamber that consisted of two separate but interconnected sub-chambers.     

Geological and petrological aspects of Ni-Cu-PGE mineralization in the early Paleoproterozoic Monchegorsk layered mafic-ultramafic complex,Kola Peninsula

The Early Paleoproterozoic Monchegorsk Complex comprises two independent large layered mafic-ultramafic intrusions: the Monchegorsk pluton and the Main Range massif formed about 2.50 and 2.46 Ga ago, respectively. They are composed of similar cumulates, though they differ somewhat in the isotopic parameters of rocks, cumulate stratigraphy and derived from siliceous high-Mg series melts that arose in the same large long-living volcanic center. The economic syngenetic Ni-Cu-PGE sulfide mineralization related to the earlier Monchegorsk pluton is represented by two types of ores. The first type, pertaining to fractionation of the primary melt, is opposite to the reef formed due to injection of a special ore-bearing melt into the solidifying intrusive chamber. The primary magmatic mineralization is largely composed of Ni-Fe-Cu sulfides and Pd-Pt sulfides, bismuthides, and tellurides. Only small PGE and probably chromite occurrences are related to the Main Range massif. In the Mid-Paleoproterozoic (2.0-1.9 Ga), the complex was transformed into a collage of tectonic blocks confined to the regional fault zone. The Monchegorsk pluton was retained better, and only rocks of its southern framework were involved into tectonic and metamorphic reworking with the formation of economic metamorphic low-sulfide PGE mineralization with widespread Pd and Pt telluro-bismuthides, arsenides, stannides, antimonides, and selenides. The ore formation was accompanied by PGE redistribution and segregation of lenticular orebodies with diffuse contours. Thus, the Monchegorsk ore cluster is characterized by juxtaposition of unaltered primary magmatic deposits and those formed as a result of their metamorphism and distinguished from the former by structure and composition. The comparative study of these deposits opens up new possibilities for comprehending ore-forming processes in the same situations.     

阿尔金山南缘长沙沟镁铁-超镁铁质层状杂岩体的发现与地质意义——岩石学和地球化学初步研究

阿尔金山南缘地区,侵入于新太古界—新元古界变质地层中的长沙沟镁铁-超镁铁质岩由四个呈断层接触的镁铁-超镁铁质岩块组成,形成年龄为462~470Ma。不同岩块内岩石的地球化学特征虽有差异,但均以LREE及强不相容元素的富集和高的Zr/Y比值（＞4.1）为特征,形成于大陆裂谷环境。其中,清水泉北段可以划分出3~4个主体由辉橄岩-角闪辉长岩构成的岩浆旋回,具有层状岩体的特征,其母岩浆的Mg^#=53.7~55.9,为演化型母岩浆,暗示其经历了富镁矿物的分离结晶,且(Th/Nb)_N＞1.0、Nb/La比值＜1.0、以及发育的矿物逆序包裹现象等表明经历了明显的地壳混染和岩浆混合作用;而清水泉南和长沙沟中段镁铁-超镁铁质岩的(Th/Nb)_N＜1.0、Nb/La比值＞1.0,基本未遭受地壳混染,并且此Mg^#与FeO^T、TiO₂负相关、与SiO₂正相关,呈现良好的Fenner演化趋势特征;清水泉南纯橄岩-辉橄岩具有极高的Mg^#（90.6~84.5）,而赋存有钛-磁铁矿工业矿体的长沙沟中段镁铁-超镁铁岩的Mg^#值较低（75.8~49.2）,推测它们是同一母岩浆（Mg^# =78.2）经Fenner演化趋势后分别形成的早期富Mg矿物堆晶相和稍晚期的富Fe-Ti残余岩浆相。长沙沟中奥陶世裂谷型层状镁铁-超镁铁质杂岩体的发现,意味着这一时期阿尔金山南缘地区处于伸展背景下,具有形成岩浆型PGE-Cu-Ni硫化物矿床和V-Ti-Fe氧化物矿床的地质背景和重要的成矿物质载体。作为该地区一种新的找矿思路,该地区同一构造带内其它镁铁-超镁超镁铁质岩体的性质及可能的金属矿化作用等也是值得进一步研究探索的。     

Extreme source heterogeneity and complex contamination patterns along the Cameroon Volcanic Line: New geochemical data from the Bamoun plateau

We investigated mafic and felsic volcanic rocks from the Bamoun plateau, a magmatic province located north of Mount Cameroon, in the continental part of the Cameroon Volcanic Line (CVL). Basalts and dacites were probably emplaced more than 40 Ma ago, while basanites represent very young volcanic eruptions. Among the basalts, some of them have suffered crustal contamination during their uprise through the continental crust, and their primary trace element and isotopic compositions have been slightly modified. The formation of the dacites was also accompanied by some crustal contamination. Non-contaminated rocks show that the oldest magmas are transitional basalts formed by relatively high degrees of partial melting of a moderately enriched mantle source, probably containing pyroxenites. Recent basanites were produced by very low partial melting degrees of an enriched mantle source with HIMU composition, but different from the source of the nearby Mount Cameroon lavas. The mantle beneath the CVL is thus very heterogeneous, and the tendency towards more alkaline mafic-ultramafic compositions in the youngest volcanic manifestations along the CVL seems to be a general feature of all CVL.     

西南印度洋洋盆演化和岩浆地球化学印迹

西南印度洋中脊（SWIR）平均扩张速率约为14 mm/yr,是全球洋中脊系统的重要组成端元,因其具有慢速-超慢速扩张特征,引起全球科学家的广泛关注。基于前人对SWIR的综合研究成果,从构造和岩浆作用两个角度出发,系统地回顾了SWIR的形成和演化历史,探讨了岩浆的分布特征和地幔不均一性成因。SWIR的形成始于冈瓦纳大陆的裂解,中段洋脊区域（26~42°E）是印度洋最早开启的窗口,历经多次洋脊跃迁和扩展作用形成了斜向扩张展布,多分段的构造格局。地幔热点在冈瓦纳大陆裂解过程中扮演了关键角色,并对SWIR的洋底地貌和岩浆作用具有显著影响,其中Bouvet和 Marion热点在SWIR的西段和中段岩浆均留下了地球化学印迹。SWIR西段岩浆除却Bouvet热点影响之外表现出与大西洋-太平洋型玄武岩相似的同位素地球化学特征。在SWIR中段,39~41°E附近的岩浆具有显著的DUPAL异常特征,与冈瓦纳大陆的初始形成、裂解紧密相关。受俯冲改造的中—新元古代的造山带岩石圈地幔拆沉是造成SWIR中段地幔不均一性的重要根源。在SWIR东段,46~52°E区域内的局部岩浆组成异常,推测具有大陆地壳物质混染的成因。而在Melville转换断层以东,洋脊形成时间最晚,玄武岩的地幔源区受到了富集组分的交代作用,其同位素组成与相邻的中印度洋中脊（CIR）和东南印度洋中脊（SEIR）地幔源区具有亲缘性。     

攀西三个镁铁-超镁铁质岩体的地球化学及其对源区的约束

在峨眉山大火成岩省的攀西地区的南北向断裂带内分布着一系列层状镁铁-超镁铁质岩体,它们在时空上与峨眉山玄武岩有着密切的联系,代表了岩浆管道系统.本文选择了3个代表性岩体,含钒钛磁铁矿的攀枝花岩体,含铜镍硫化物矿床的力马河岩体以及同时舍钒钛磁铁矿和铜镍硫化物铂族元素矿床的新街岩体进行了主要元素、微量元素和Sr-Nd同位素地球化学研究.总体上新街岩体在地球化学特征上均介于攀枝花岩体和力马河岩体之同.在主要元素特征上,攀枝花岩体相对富Fe、Ti、Ca、Al,而力马河岩体则相对富Mg.3个岩体的稀土和微量元素标准化由线均与丽江苦橄岩相似,均显示出LREE和LILE的相对富集,但是力马河岩体有明显的负Nb、Ta和Ti异常,反映了源区有地壳物质或岩石圈地幔的混染.在log(Th/Yb)PM vs. log(Ta/Th)PM图解上,3个岩体昱示出线性关系,其中攀枝花岩体具有高的(Ta/Th)PM和低的(Th/Yb)PM值,而力马河岩体则显示出相反的特征,并且该图解也暗示了攀枝花岩体有岩石圈地幔的混染,力马河岩体有上地壳物质的混染,而新街岩体则有下地壳物质的混染.在Sr-Nd同位素特征上,3个岩体也有明显的区别,其中新街岩体具有较均一的(87Sr/86Sr)t(0.70610～0.70636)和εNd(t)值(1.01 to 1.75),力马河岩体则具有高的(87Sr/86 Sr).(0.70631～0.70930)和低的εNd(t)值(-0.85 to -4.13),而攀枝花岩体则与丽江苦橄岩的Sr-Nd同位素组成(0.70434～0.70510,1.1～3.2)相似.然而,3个岩体的Sr-Nd同位素成分(除力马河岩体部分样品外)均落在峨眉山玄武岩和洋岛玄武岩(OIB)内,因此这3个岩体可能均来自于地幔柱,但地幔柱熔体在上升过程中受到了不同物质的混染,其中,攀枝花岩体的源区为地幔柱和岩石?圈地幔,新街岩体为地幔柱和下地壳,而力马河岩体则为地幔柱和上地壳,其源区的特征可能反映了地幔柱熔体的演化过程.     

The Aguablanca Ni–(Cu) sulfide deposit, SW Spain: geologic and geochemical controls and the relationship with a midcrustal layered mafic complex

The Aguablanca Ni–(Cu) sulfide deposit is hosted by a breccia pipe within a gabbro–diorite pluton. The deposit probably formed due to the disruption of a partially crystallized layered mafic complex at about 12–19 km depth and the subsequent emplacement of melts and breccias at shallow levels (<2 km). The ore-hosting breccias are interpreted as fragments of an ultramafic cumulate, which were transported to the near surface along with a molten sulfide melt. Phlogopite Ar–Ar ages are 341–332 Ma in the breccia pipe, and 338–334 Ma in the layered mafic complex, and are similar to recently reported U–Pb ages of the host Aguablanca Stock and other nearby calc-alkaline metaluminous intrusions (ca. 350–330 Ma). Ore deposition resulted from the combination of two critical factors, the emplacement of a layered mafic complex deep in the continental crust and the development of small dilational structures along transcrustal strike-slip faults that triggered the forceful intrusion of magmas to shallow levels. The emplacement of basaltic magmas in the lower middle crust was accompanied by major interaction with the host rocks, immiscibility of a sulfide melt, and the formation of a magma chamber with ultramafic cumulates and sulfide melt at the bottom and a vertically zoned mafic to intermediate magmas above. Dismembered bodies of mafic/ultramafic rocks thought to be parts of the complex crop out about 50 km southwest of the deposit in a tectonically uplifted block (Cortegana Igneous Complex, Aracena Massif). Reactivation of Variscan structures that merged at the depth of the mafic complex led to sequential extraction of melts, cumulates, and sulfide magma. Lithogeochemistry and Sr and Nd isotope data of the Aguablanca Stock reflect the mixing from two distinct reservoirs, i.e., an evolved siliciclastic middle-upper continental crust and a primitive tholeiitic melt. Crustal contamination in the deep magma chamber was so intense that orthopyroxene replaced olivine as the main mineral phase controlling the early fractional crystallization of the melt. Geochemical evidence includes enrichment in SiO₂ and incompatible elements, and Sr and Nd isotope compositions (⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr_i 0.708–0.710; ¹⁴³Nd/¹⁴⁴Nd_i 0.512–0.513). However, rocks of the Cortegana Igneous Complex have low initial ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr and high initial ¹⁴³Nd/¹⁴⁴Nd values suggesting contamination by lower crustal rocks. Comparison of the geochemical and geological features of igneous rocks in the Aguablanca deposit and the Cortegana Igneous Complex indicates that, although probably part of the same magmatic system, they are rather different and the rocks of the Cortegana Igneous Complex were not the direct source of the Aguablanca deposit. Crust–magma interaction was a complex process, and the generation of orebodies was controlled by local but highly variable factors. The model for the formation of the Aguablanca deposit presented in this study implies that dense sulfide melts can effectively travel long distances through the continental crust and that dilational zones within compressional belts can effectively focus such melt transport into shallow environments.Electronic supplementary material Supplementary material is available in the online version of this article at and is accessible for authorized users.     

Mineralogical,geochemical and microfabric evidences of gypsum crusts: a case study from Budapest

High levels of SO₂ and particulate pollution enable the rapid development of gypsum-rich weathering crusts in Budapest. Two types of white crusts, thin and thick ones, and two forms of black crusts, laminar and framboidal ones, were studied in limestone buildings of the parliament and Citadella. The percentage of crust cover and damage categories were documented on selected walls. Petrographic, XRD, XRF and sulphur isotope analyses were performed under laboratory conditions to understand the mechanism of crust formation. White crusts found both on exposed and sheltered walls display a calcite-rich layer with gypsum, while black crusts are enriched with gypsum. The sulphur isotopic composition of white and black crusts overlaps, but the crusts are slightly enriched in heavy isotopes compared to rainwater. S content, Si/Al ratios and particulates in black crusts suggest that air pollution (SO₂, dust) contributes to black crust formation. The accumulation of sulphur and Zn enrichment of white crusts were also documented indicating that under high pollution levels, even these compound can accumulate on exposed facades.     

Polygenesis of mafic-ultramafic complexes: Isotope-geochronological and geochemical evidence from zircons of the Berezovka massif rocks (Sakhalin Island)

Results of comprehensive isotope-geochronological (U-Pb dating; SHRIMP II) and geochemical (LA-ICP-MS) studies of zircons from different rocks of the Berezovka polygenetic mafic-ultramafic massif of the East Sakhalin ophiolite association are presented. The massif includes three proximal but genetically autonomous structure-lithologic complexes of different ages: protrusion of ultramafic rocks of restite nature, gabbroid intrusion breaking through it, and contact reaction zone located along their boundaries. The isotopic age of zircons in the massif as a whole and in its individual rocks varies over a broad range of values. The zircons belong to several populations according to their age (Ma) and other features: relict and xenogenous (~ 3100-990, 70–410, and ~ 395-210) and syngenetic (~ 200-100, ~ 90-65, and ~ 30-20). They differ in grain size and morphology, optical and cathodoluminescence images, and trace-element patterns. By morphology, the grains are divided into short-prismatic crystals with well-developed faces and edges, long-prismatic crystals with well-developed faces and edges, prismatic crystals with slightly resorbed faces and edges, prismatic crystals with strongly resorbed faces and edges, and intensely resorbed grains totally or partly lacking faceting. The ages of zircons depend inversely on the contents of La, Ce, and Yb, total contents of REE, (Ce/Ce*)n, and (Eu/Eu*)n. Some grains are characterized by abnormal REE and trace-element patterns due to their epigenetic redistribution. The wide scatter of the intermediate ages of relict and xenogenous zircon grains, their resorption and disturbed optical and geochemical features are probably due to the nonuniform rejuvenation of their isotope systems and variations in other parameters, caused by the effect of younger mafic melt and its fluids, whose crystallization gave rise to a gabbroid intrusion dated at 170–150 Ma. The obtained data on the isotopic age and other properties of zircons from the rocks of the Berezovka massif agree with the geological model of its polygenesis.

Origin and significance of poikilitic and mosaic peridotite xenoliths in the western Pannonian Basin: geochemical and petrological evidences

Peridotite xenoliths erupted by alkali basaltic volcanoes in the western Pannonian Basin can be divided into two fundamentally contrasting groups. Geochemical characteristics of the abundant protogranular, porphyroclastic and equigranular nodules suggest that these samples originate from an old consolidated and moderately depleted lithospheric mantle domain. In contrast, the geochemical features of the worldwide rare, but in the Pannonian Basin relatively abundant, poikilitic xenoliths attest to a more complex evolution. It has been argued that the origin of the peculiar texture and chemistry may be intimately linked to melt/rock reactions at successively decreasing liquid volumes in a porous melt flow system. The most likely site where such reactions can take place is the asthenosphere–lithosphere boundary. In this context, poikilitic xenoliths may provide petrological and geochemical evidence for reactions between magmatic liquids issued from the uprising asthenosphere and the solid mantle rocks of the lithosphere. These reactions are important agents of the thermal erosion of the lithosphere; thus, they could have considerably contributed to the thinning of the lithosphere in the Pannonian region. We suggest that in the Pannonian Basin, there could be a strong relation between the unusual abundance of poikilitic mantle xenoliths and the strongly eroded lithosphere.

广东西淋岗花岗岩原地重熔成因的地质地球化学证据

广东西淋岗岩体出露的地质剖面为研究花岗岩成因提供了大量信息。对该岩体的野外地质调查发现:下白垩统白鹤洞组红层(K1bh)与下伏花岗岩体呈突变接触关系,接触界面之下的花岗岩中含大量红岩碎屑,且红岩碎屑往下逐渐减少。岩石地球化学及矿物学测试结果表明:西淋岗花岗岩的成岩物质,应来自盖层之下包括下白垩统白鹤洞组下部红层在内的岩石地层。岩石熔融和岩浆结晶过程中,分异作用导致元素分布具有明显分带性;花岗岩中的石英是在比较稳定的条件下结晶而成,且在石英结晶过程中,SiO2过饱和度逐渐降低。上述研究结果表明,西淋岗花岗岩应是上地壳岩石原地熔融固结形成,而不是远道而来的“侵入体”。

The origin and emplacement of the Lajishankou ophiolite complex in the South Qilian belt: evidences from geological mapping

Many ophiolite complexes like those of Oman and New Caledonia represent fragments of ancient oceanic crust and upper mantle generated at supra‐subduction zone environments and have been obducted onto the adjacent rifted continental margin together with the accretionary complexes and intra‐oceanic arcs. The Lajishan ophiolite complexes in the Qilian orogenic belt along the NE edge of the Tibet‐Qinghai Plateau are one of several ophiolites situated to the south of the Central Qilian block. Our geological mapping and petrological investigations suggest that the Lajishankou ophiolite complex consists of serpentinite, wehrlite, pyroxenite, gabbro, dolerite, and pillow and massive basalts that occur in a series of elongate fault‐bounded slices. An accretionary complex composed mainly of basalt, radiolarian chert, sandstone, mudstone, and mélange lies structurally beneath the ophiolite complex. The Lajishankou ophiolite complex and accretionary complex were emplaced onto the Qingshipo Formation of the Central Qilian block which shows features typical of turbidites deposited in a deep‐water environment of passive continental margin. Our geochemical and geochronological studies indicate that the mafic rocks in the Lajishankou ophiolite complex can be categorized into three distinct groups: massive island arc tholeiites, 509 Ma back‐arc dolerite dykes, and 491 Ma pillow basaltic and dolerite slices that are of seamount origin in a back‐arc basin. The ophiolite and accretionary complex constitute a Cambrian‐early Ordovician trench‐arc system within the South Qilian belt during the early Paleozoic southward subduction of the South Qilian Ocean prior to Early Ordovician obduction of this system onto the Central Qilian block.
