Timing of Late Neoproterozoic glaciation on Baltica constrained by detrital zircon geochronology in the Hedmark Group, south-east Norway

The Moelv Tillite is the Late Neoproterozoic Varanger glacial deposit recorded in the Hedmark Group, SE Norway. Paired U–Pb and Lu–Hf data collected on detrital zircons in the Rendalen Formation underlying the Moelv Tillite have identified an uncommon 677 ± 15 to 620 ± 14 Ma population, that constrain the deposition of the Moelv Tillite to be younger than 620 ± 14 Ma. The youngest detrital zircons may be derived from granite magmatism related to the 616 ± 3 Ma Egersund dolerite magmatism, situated in the western part of the Sveconorwegian orogen. The Moelv Tillite, which is not overlain by a cap carbonate, possibly correlates with the c. 580 Ma Squantum-Gaskiers glacial deposits of Avalonia. Available palaeomagnetic data for the Late Neoproterozoic suggest that Baltica was located at intermediate to high latitude between 620 and 555 Ma.     

库鲁克塔格地区新元古代沉积物源分析:来自碎屑锆石年代学的证据

库鲁克塔格位于南天山和塔里木盆地接合部,保留相对较完整的地层记录。新元古代贝义西组主要为一套火山-沉积组合序列,育肯沟组为浊流成因的砂岩和粉砂岩组合。对取自两个地层的沉积岩样品,分别进行了碎屑锆石LA-ICP-MS U-Pb测年,并分别获得了93组和71组U-Pb有效年龄。其中贝义西组锆石U-Pb年龄主峰值为821Ma、次峰值为861Ma的碎屑锆石(761~847Ma)具有显著优势,育肯沟组年龄值为768Ma(次峰值为800Ma和741Ma)的碎屑锆石比较集中,说明库鲁克塔格地区在741Ma、768Ma、800Ma、821Ma和861Ma有大规模的岩浆活动。10个太古代碎屑锆石年龄以及综合已有的研究成果,确认库鲁克塔格存在中-新太古代基底。贝义西组砂岩主要源自761~847Ma、851~972Ma和1808~2498Ma岩石。育肯沟组主要来自734~845Ma、858~963Ma和1708~2486Ma的岩石。     

湘东新元古代沉积岩的地球化学和碎屑锆石年代学特征及其构造意义

本文对湘东湘乡-醴陵地区和湘东南桂阳地区的新元古代浅变质沉积岩进行了岩石地球化学研究和锆石U-Pb定年及锆石Lu-Hf同位素分析。研究显示两个地区的碎屑沉积岩具有相似的中等的成分成熟度,但大的K₂O/Na₂O变化指示不同沉积岩经历了不同程度的风化淋滤作用。两个地区多数样品的稀土分配模式与澳大利亚后太古代页岩(PAAS)的稀土分配模式相似,但总体具有更高的含量,尤其是重稀土。湘东地区板溪群沉积岩含有更高的相容元素(如Sc, Cr, Ni),说明源区具有更多的中基性组分,而湘东南震旦纪沉积岩主要由再循环物质组成。碎屑锆石U-Pb定年结果表明湘东新元古代沉积岩中含有大量850~800Ma的碎屑锆石,而缺少1000Ma左右的碎屑锆石,显示了与扬子地块的亲缘性。而湘东南新元古代沉积岩中含有丰富的Grenville期和一定数量的~2.5Ga的碎屑锆石,相似于华夏地块物质组成。表明扬子地块和华夏地块在西南地区的分界线很可能就从湘东的湘乡-醴陵地区和湘东南的桂阳地区之间通过。前人对华南早古生代沉积岩中碎屑锆石的年代学研究显示湘东和湘东南地区的早古生代沉积岩的物质组成均相似于华夏地块,指示它们的源区是东南的华夏地块。因此,从新元古代到早古生代,湘东地区的沉积物源区发生了重大改变,暗示在新元古代晚期(震旦纪)与早古生代(中寒武世)之间发生过一次构造运动,使华夏地块逐渐隆起或使湘东-湘西盆地进一步沉陷,从而使湘乡-醴陵地区从早古生代开始接受了来自华夏地块的碎屑物质。这期构造运动可能与泛非构造事件相关。     

Early Cambrian magmatism in the northeastern Siberian Craton (Olenek Uplift)

The Vendian–Lower Cambrian tectonomagmatic activation took place in the northeastern Siberian Craton, within the Olenek Uplift and in the Kharaulakh segment of the Verkhoyansk fold-and-thrust belt (the lower reaches of the Lena River). The Early Paleozoic volcanic activity in the Olenek Uplift is expressed in the form of basitic diatremes, small basaltic covers, and doleritic dikes and sills intruding and covering the Upper Vendian carbonate deposits. The material specificity of the Lower Cambrian basites and their mantle sources, jointly with the Vendian–Cambrian sedimentation history, gives reason to consider the Lower Cambrian riftogenesis and the associated magmatism as a consequence of the plume–lithosphere interaction in the northeastern Siberian Craton.     

北大巴山新元古代龙潭河组的源区特征：来自碎屑组成和锆石年代学的证据

沿扬子板块北缘大巴山弧形断裂出露的新元古代龙潭河组主体为一套富火山碎屑沉积岩夹原生火山碎屑岩组合。长期以来,它们以及上覆砂砾岩组合(木座组)(前人认为冰蹟岩)统被解释为扬子板块北缘新元古代陆内裂谷和被动陆缘沉积。龙潭河组岩石组合包括杂砂岩、含砾粗砂岩、砾岩、凝灰质粉砂岩夹(含砾)凝灰岩。砂岩碎屑组成研究表明,龙潭河组碎屑以火山岩岩屑和斜长石为主,少量石英,砾岩砾石主要为玄武岩、玄武安山岩/安山岩。这些特征表明物源区主要出露中、基性火山岩和富火山碎屑沉积岩,少量长英质岩石,源区大地构造背景为岛弧。本文对一套具有近源堆积特征的火山质砾岩进行了碎屑锆石LA-ICP-MS U-Pb定年分析,结果显示锆石具有两组集中年龄群,峰值分别为~770 Ma和~705 Ma,表明源区存在至少两期岩浆活动。龙潭河组砾石、岩屑和锆石较差的磨圆度和分选性共同表明它们为一套近源沉积,碎屑组成表明物源区为~705 Ma岛弧,形成于弧后环境。龙潭河组物源区岛弧构造背景的确定暗示南秦岭造山带北大巴山地区与俯冲相关的岛弧构造体制一直持续到~705 Ma。     

U-Pb detrital zircon geochronology and provenance of Neoproterozoic sedimentary rocks in southern Siberia: New insights into breakup of Rodinia and opening of Paleo-Asian Ocean

We present the synthesis of new data on detrital zircon geochronology of the Neoproterozoic strata of the southern part of the Siberian craton as well as a comprehensive analysis of previously published stratigraphic, sedimentological and geochronological (LA-ICP-MS) data obtained for key sections in this area that allows us to trace the process of birth and early stages of development of the Paleo-Asian Ocean (PAO). Before the break-up of Rodinia and opening of PAO, Tonian – Cryogenian intracontinental sedimentary basin existed between southern Siberia and northern Laurentia. The detachment of the southern flank of the Siberian craton from northern Laurentia and opening of the PAO between these cratons took place in Cryogenian. The detrital zircon ages from lower parts of Neoproterozoic successions suggest the Siberian craton as the sole provenance area right after the opening of the PAO. The age constraints on the lower parts of the studied Neoproterozoic successions, which are based on correlation of their tillite horizons with the Marinoan glaciation, suggest the late Cryogenian age for these sedimentary rocks. A clear change in the age spectra of detrital zircons from “unimodal” (Early Precambrian only) in older sedimentary rocks to “bimodal” (Early Precambrian as well as Neoproterozoic) in younger sequences of the studied successions marks the next stage of the PAO evolution. The abundance of youngest (630–610 Ma) detrital zircons in the upper parts of the studied sequences reflects a shrinkage of the oceanic basin as a result of the convergence of the craton with the microcontinents and island arcs within the Paleo-Asian Ocean. We suggest that a passive oceanic margin along the southern margin of the Siberian craton has been transformed into a series of foreland basins at ~610 Ma.     

仲巴地体的板块亲缘性:来自碎屑锆石U-Pb年代学和Hf同位素的证据

仲巴地体位于青藏高原西南部,其南北两侧均为雅鲁藏布蛇绿岩或蛇绿混杂岩。仲巴地体主要由一套断续出露的前寒武系构造基底、古生代和三叠系地层组成,岩性主要包括石英砂岩、含白云母石英岩、泥质石英粉砂岩,白云母方解石片岩和大理岩等。岩相学揭示这套地层总体上为滨浅海-陆棚-外陆棚环境。碎屑锆石U-Pb年代学和Hf同位素分析表明,锆石年龄出现特征年龄峰值530Ma和950Ma,与西羌塘、特提斯喜马拉雅以及高喜马拉雅地体非常类似,并且950Ma左右的碎屑锆石群具有与上述地体上报道的同期碎屑锆石群相似的εHf(t)值和地壳模式年龄。这种碎屑锆石年龄和Hf同位素组成特征明显区别于拉萨地体,后者以出现约1170Ma的特殊年龄群为特征。基于碎屑锆石特征和沉积学研究,本文认为仲巴地体属于西羌塘-大印度-特提斯喜马拉雅构造体系,与拉萨地体具有不同的板块构造亲缘性。     

SHRIMP U-Pb zircon geochronology and Nd-Sr isotopic study of the Mamianshan Group: implications for the Neoproterozoic tectonic development of southeast China

Northwestern Fujian contains abundant well-studied Precambrian basement, and was a composite terrane in Cathaysia during the Neoproterozoic; however, its magmatic activity, petrogenesis, and tectonic evolution remain controversial. This article focuses on the geochronology and geochemistry of the Neoproterozoic Group in order to resolve the above problems. We provide new SHRIMP U-Pb zircon dating for the Mamianshan Group: 851.9 ± 9.2 to 825.5 ± 9.8 Ma for the Longbeixi Formation, 796.5 ± 9.3 Ma for the Dongyan Formation, and 756.2 ± 7.2 Ma for the Daling Formation. These ages document the existence of Neoproterozoic magmatism in the northwestern Cathaysia Block. Dongyan Nd-Sr isotopic data show that mafic amphibolite schists, mafic greenschists, and quartzofeldspathic schists were derived from a more depleted mantle (initial ε_Nd ? +5.5 and ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr ratio 0.703409643), a mixture of depleted mantle and crustal components (initial ε_Nd ? ?1 and ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr ratio 0.702045282–0.704147714), and late Palaeoproterozoic continental crustal materials (initial ε_Nd < ?1 and ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr ratio 0.71083603), respectively. These new data, together with previous studies, suggest a bi-subduction-collision orogenic model for the Neoproterozoic evolution of the Yangtze and Cathaysia blocks. Our plate tectonic scenario involves earlier NW-dipping subduction during 1.0 Ga–860 Ma along the southeastern margin of the Yangtze Block and later NW-dipping subduction near the northwestern margin of the Cathaysia Block starting at ca. 850 Ma. The 796.5 ± 9.3 Ma age of the volcanic Dongyan Formation suggests that the final assembly of the Yangtze and Cathaysia blocks probably occurred after ca. 800 Ma. The 756.2 ± 7.2 Ma age of the Daling Formation indicates that post-orogenic extensional magmatism took place after 800 Ma along the northwestern margin of Cathaysia.

九瑞矿集区志留纪西坑组疑源类化石和碎屑锆石年代学研究及其地层意义

九瑞矿集区是长江中下游成矿带中一个最重要的铜金多金属矿集区,区内发育了城门山铜矿、武山铜矿、洋鸡山金矿等重要的多金属矿床。本文对该区域的城门山和望夫山两个剖面的疑源类化石及碎屑锆石开展了详细研究,在城门山剖面原来被认为是志留纪西坑组的地层中发现了化石面貌为新元古代或早寒武世的化石,结合碎屑锆石U-Pb定年工作,推测其时代为早寒武世,该地层与上覆地层泥盆系五通组之间存在一个明显的角度不整合。望夫山剖面仍旧为正常志留纪西坑组地层,疑源类化石和碎屑锆石U-Pb年代学研究表明九瑞西坑组沉积时代应该晚于特列奇阶。九瑞矿集区“扬子抬升”的开始时间应该晚于特列奇阶,结束时间应该晚于中泥盆世早期。     

鄂尔多斯盆地西南部上古生界碎屑锆石U-Pb年龄及其构造意义

通过对鄂尔多斯盆地西南部晚古生代山西组1段和下石盒子组8段碎屑锆石进行LA-ICP-MS U-Pb测年分析,结合周缘地层年龄结构和地质历史事件,进而追寻盆地沉积物物源,推断盆地与造山带的盆山耦合过程。研究表明105个岩浆成因的碎屑锆石可分为4个年龄组段:(1)260~340 Ma,占总数的21.9%,推断物源主要来自北秦岭和西秦岭构造带;(2)370~470 Ma,占总数的24.8%,反映物源主要来自北秦岭、西秦岭构造带和北祁连造山带;(3)1600~2000 Ma,占总数的32.4%,指示物源来自北秦岭造山带、北祁造山带和华北板块;(4)2300~2600 Ma,占总数的15.2%,物源分别来自华北板块基底结晶岩系、北祁连构造带、北秦岭构造带和西秦岭构造带。研究区总体上具有来自北秦岭造山带、西秦岭造山带、北祁连造山带、兴蒙造山带及华北板块基底五个物源区,其中兴蒙造山带、北秦岭造山带和北祁连造山带为主要物源区。古生代碎屑锆石年龄证实了鄂尔多斯盆地西南部奥陶纪被动大陆边缘形成,志留纪—泥盆纪转化为陆-陆碰撞造山带,石炭纪—二叠纪逐渐由造山带转化为沉积盆地。     

Neoproterozoic alkaline magmatism and associated igneous rocks in the western framing of the Siberian craton: petrography,geochemistry, and geochronology

The formation and evolution conditions for alkaline magmatism and associated igneous rocks in the western framing of the Siberian craton are shown by the example of alkaline and subalkaline intrusive bodies of the Yenisei Ridge. Here we present petrographic, mineralogical, geochemical, and geochronological data for the rocks of the Srednetatarka and Yagodka plutons located within the Tatarka–Ishimba suture zone. Ferroan and metaluminous varieties enriched with rare elements (Nb, Ta, Zr, Hf, and REE) are making up most of the studied rocks. They formed at the stages of fractional crystallization of alkaline magma in a setting of active continental margin in the west of the Siberian craton in the Late Neoproterozoic (710–690 Ma). As differentiates of mantle magmas, these rocks associate with Nb-enriched rocks—A-type leucogranites and carbonatites. Sm/Nd and Rb/Sr isotopic data imply a predominance of the mantle component in the magmatic sources of the mafic and intermediate rocks as well as contamination processes of various volumes of continental crustal material by this magma.     

豫西五里川—寨根一带秦岭岩群碎屑锆石U-Pb年龄研究

秦岭岩群为北秦岭微陆块的主要组成部分,其时代的准确厘定对秦岭造山带构造演化研究具有重要的地质意义。本次工作对五里川—寨根一带秦岭岩群雁岭沟岩组钠长二云片岩和郭庄岩组矽线二云二长片麻岩进行碎屑锆石LA-ICP-MS U-Pb同位素年代学研究。钠长二云片岩具有岩浆成因特征的碎屑锆石核部年龄主要存在545~551 Ma、754~778 Ma、900~1000 Ma、1340~1830 Ma和2300~2500 Ma 5个年龄段,并以900~1000 Ma段碎屑锆石的峰最明显;部分数据点在锆石U-Pb谐和图上拟合成一条上交点年龄为(2478±25)Ma的不一致线。矽线二云二长片麻岩年龄主要集中于1400~1800 Ma,另有4颗锆石年龄为1134~1243 Ma,其中最年轻的1颗碎屑岩浆锆石年龄为(1134±17)Ma。根据分析结果,推断本地区雁岭沟岩组的形成时代应晚于900 Ma,早于438 Ma的五垛山岩体。郭庄岩组的主体形成于中元古代晚期,时代应该晚于1122 Ma,老于962 Ma的新元古代花岗岩类。雁岭沟岩组最主要的物质来源为新元古代花岗岩,其次为新太古代—古元古代陆壳,少部分来源于郭庄岩组;郭庄岩组物质来源主要为的古元古代晚期至中元古代早期的花岗岩陆壳。雁岭沟岩组与郭庄岩组形成时代不同,二者之间存在沉积间断,主要物源区也不相同,雁岭沟岩组中甚至有少量郭庄岩组剥蚀后再沉积的物质。因此,二者是不同的构造岩片,本地区雁岭沟岩组应从秦岭岩群中解体出来。     

Detrital zircon geochronology and provenance of the Chubut Group in the northeast of Patagonia,Argentina

The Chubut Group constitutes the most widespread sedimentary unit in NE Patagonia, characterized by variable-energy fluvial deposits. U–Pb analysis of detrital zircons from two sections of the Chubut Group constraint the age of the oldest sedimentary rocks in the northeast of the Somuncurá – Cañadón Asfalto Basin. In the Cañadón Williams area, at San Jorge section, 20 km NW of Telsen locality, dating of 56 detrital zircons from a medium to coarse sandstone indicated a maximum depositional age of 109 ± 1 Ma (n = 4). These sandstones were interpreted to represent shallow channels, associated with a lacustrine system. In the Telsen locality, a laser ablation analysis of 115 detrital zircons from a medium to coarse-grained sandstone, from fluvial channel facies, yielded a maximum depositional age of ca. 106 ± 1 Ma (n = 8). Both ages are consistent with volcanic events of the Barremian to Albian age in the central Patagonian Andes Region. Cathodoluminescence images of zircons from the San Jorge sample suggest an igneous origin, which is further supported by Th/U values above 0.5 in most of the grains. The distribution of the statistical modes of the main age populations of detrital zircons for the two samples [182, 185 and 189 Ma for Telsen sample (T2S) and 181 ± 1 Ma for San Jorge sample (SJS)] matches the age of the volcanic Marifil Formation. The rocks of the Marifil Formation of these ages are exposed NE to SE of the study area. The abundance of zircons of similar Jurassic ages (n = 52 for SJS and n = 105 for T2S) and the external morphology of the zircons in the sample SJS, implies a close proximity of the source area. Suggestion that the Marifil Formation was the main provenance source is also supported by northeast–southeasterly paleocurrents measured at the San Jorge and Telsen sections.     

赣中周潭群副变质岩碎屑锆石U-Pb年代学

对赣中周潭群副变质岩中的碎屑锆石开展了LA-ICP-MS U-Pb定年工作,两个石榴黑云母片岩和一个黑云母片岩三个样品中碎屑锆石给出的最年轻的年龄峰值分别为834±11Ma、830±11Ma和809±15Ma.这些碎屑锆石具有与江南造山带内冷家溪群及其相当地层类似的年龄谱型式和相近的最年轻的年龄峰值,表明周潭群应与它们有相似的形成历史和源区,产生于相似的构造环境.因此,周潭群在新元古代扬子地块与华夏地块拼接的过程中,应与冷家溪群、双桥山群等地层一样靠近扬子一侧,而不应属华夏地块.从黑云母片岩部分碎屑锆石的变质边获取的年龄分别为444±11Ma和438±11Ma,表明周潭群地层的变质作用发生在加里东期,与华夏地块其他地区的角闪岩相变质岩的变质年龄一致.相反,与周潭群同期的双桥山群、冷家溪群等地层均未达到角闪岩相变质.这表明,在扬子和华夏地块新元古代的拼接之后,二块体在(现在的)赣中地区又裂开,从而导致了周潭群和相邻的冷家溪群及双桥山群在加里东时期有不同的变质响应.     

Formation and evolution of the Eastern Kunlun Range,northern Tibet: Evidence from detrital zircon U-Pb geochronology and Hf isotopes

The Eastern Kunlun Range, as a high-elevation and granitoid-rich tectonic element in northern Tibet, records Paleozoic–Mesozoic amalgamation process of the East Asia continent and Cenozoic uplift of the Tibetan Plateau. However, Precambrian evolution of the Eastern Kunlun remains poorly understood and relations between Eastern Kunlun and adjacent terranes (e.g., Qaidam and Qilian) during the Phanerozoic accretion process are still highly controversial. We use detrital zircon U-Pb geochronological and Hf isotopic data of Proterozoic and Paleozoic metasedimentary rocks from the Eastern Kunlun Range, to reconstruct its origin and subsequent evolutionary history. Detrital zircons of the Proterozoic rocks are dominated by early–middle Neoproterozoic ages (700–1000 Ma), with two age peaks at ca. 800 Ma and ca. 920 Ma and εHf(t) values ranging from −10 to 5. The youngest detrital zircon ages (648–788 Ma) demonstrate that these investigated Proterozoic strata, which were previously mapped as Paleoproterozoic to Mesoproterozoic, were most likely deposited in the middle–late Neoproterozoic. Abundant 0.9–1.0 Ga detrital zircon crystals are consistent with those crystalline rocks of similar ages across the Kunlun-Qaidam and Qilian terranes, which are generally interpreted as the product of Grenvillian orogenesis. These findings support the hypothesis that these terranes were probably within a single continental landmass (named as KQQ block) during the Neoproterozoic. The high similarity of detrital zircon ages, Hf isotopes and Neoproterozoic lithostratigraphy between western Yangtze and KQQ blocks, supports a temporary connection of the KQQ block to western Yangtze in Rodinia supercontinent. Detrital zircons of the analyzed Paleozoic rocks are characterized by 390–490 Ma age populations. These results, in combination with published granitoids data of the northern Tibet, favor a scenario in which the Kunlun-Qaidam and Qilian terranes underwent separated subduction and accretion processes during the late Cambrian–Devonian, but together formed an upper plate to northward subduction of the Paleo-Tethys during the Permian–Triassic.     

藏南下侏罗统日当组地球化学和碎屑锆石U-Pb年代学特征及构造意义

喜马拉雅东段印度被动大陆边缘沉积的中—新生界地层是研究新特提斯大洋演化的重要载体。本文对西藏山南市错那县曲卓木乡的下侏罗统日当组粉砂岩和页岩进行碎屑锆石U-Pb定年和全岩地球化学分析。其碎屑锆石年龄有两个峰值区间,分别是546~496 Ma和952~853 Ma,峰值年龄分别为516 Ma和926 Ma,最年轻年龄为292.5±5.5 Ma。日当组的Al₂O₃含量较高,平均值为20.8%,而CaO、Na₂O和K₂O含量均较低（0.4%~4.0%）,表明日当组富含粘土矿物,其物源区成分成熟度高,风化强,代表沉积物的再循环以及构造静止期或者克拉通环境。日当页岩轻稀土元素富集,重稀土元素亏损,Eu负异常明显。本文综合古地理环境,认为日当组物质来源主要为冈瓦纳大陆北缘的印度板块和澳大利亚板块,构造背景为稳定的被动大陆边缘。

     

Out of Africa: detrital zircon provenance of central Madagascar and Neoproterozoic terrane transfer across the Mozambique Ocean

The Neoproterozoic East African Orogen reflects closure of the Mozambique Ocean and collision of the Congo and Dharwar cratons. This palaeogeographical change and its environmental consequences are poorly understood, but new detrital zircon ages from Madagascar and published data from elsewhere provide evidence for multiple ocean basins and two-stage collision. We propose that central Madagascar rifted from the Congo Craton and crossed a Palaeomozambique Ocean to collide with the Dharwar Craton at c. 700 Ma, opening a Neomozambique Ocean in its wake. Closure of the Neomozambique Ocean at c. 600 Ma juxtaposed the Congo and Dharwar cratons and resulted in prolonged collisional orogenesis concluding at c. 500 Ma.     

松潘-甘孜地体东南缘长枪穹隆核部里伍群碎屑锆石年代学和Hf同位素特征及其构造意义

长枪穹隆位于青藏高原北部松潘-甘孜地体之南端的木里地区,被东部的扬子板块和西部的羌塘地块所围绕。伏于三叠纪复理石地层之下的长枪穹隆由一套浅变质的沉积岩系组成,核部主要为里伍群二云石英片岩。为精确限定长枪穹隆核部里伍群的沉积时代和源区特征,本文运用LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb微区定年和原位Lu-Hf同位素分析技术,对里伍群变沉积岩系样品进行了锆石年代学、锆石微量元素和Lu-Hf同位素研究。结果显示,155颗碎屑年龄横跨早奥陶世-太古宙(476～3583Ma),碎屑锆石的Th/U比值均大于0. 1,大部分锆石具有明显的震荡环带,且锆石的稀土元素呈现明显的HREE富集、正Ce异常和负Eu异常的特点;上述特征指示该系列锆石为岩浆成因。碎屑锆石原位Hf同位素显示其εHf(t)值具有较宽泛的变化范围,介于-22～+14。锆石混合年龄谱能区分出四个明显的特征年龄峰值:～516Ma、～740Ma、～884Ma和～2. 5Ga。综合对比区域研究结果,我们认为476～560Ma的碎屑锆石可能来自于当时邻区冈瓦纳大陆北缘的泛非造山带,而715～1000Ma碎屑锆石可能来源于扬子板块西缘的新元古代的岩浆岩带和江南造山带。
