Influence of oxygen fugacity on mineral compositions in peralkaline melts: The Katzenbuckel volcano, Southwest Germany

The igneous rocks of the Katzenbuckel, Southwest Germany, represent a unique and unusual alkaline to peralkaline association within the European Volcanic Province. The magmatic activity can be subdivided into two main phases. Phase I comprises the main rock bodies of phonolite and nepheline syenite, which were later intruded by different peralkaline dyke rocks (tinguaites and alkali feldspar syenite dykes) of phase II. The dyke assemblage was accompanied by magnetite and apatite veins and was followed by a late-stage pneumatolytic activity causing autometasomatic alterations.

As is typical for alkaline to peralkaline igneous rocks, early mafic minerals of phase I rocks comprise olivine, augite and Fe–Ti oxides, which are substituted in the course of fractionation by Na-amphibole and Na-pyroxene. For the early magmatic stage, calculated temperatures range between 880 and 780 °C with low silica activities (0.4 to 0.6) but high relative oxygen fugacities between 0.5 and 1.9 log units above the FMQ buffer. Even higher oxygen fugacities (above the HM buffer) are indicated for the autometasomatic alteration, which occurred at temperatures between 585 and 780 °C and resulted in the formation of pseudobrookite and hematite.

The unusually high oxygen fugacities (even during the early magmatic stage) are recorded by the major element compositions of the mafic minerals (forsterite content in olivine between 68 and 78 mol%, up to 6.2 wt.% ZrO₂ and 8.5 wt.% TiO₂ in clinopyroxene), the unusual mineral assemblages (pseudobrookite, freudenbergite) and by the enrichment of Fe³⁺ in the felsic minerals (up to 2.8 wt.% Fe₂O₃ in alkali feldspar and up to 2.6 wt.% Fe₂O₃ in nepheline). These observations point to a metasomatically enriched and highly oxidized lithospheric mantle as a major source for the Katzenbuckel melts.     

北淮阳庐镇关岩浆岩锆石U-Pb年龄和氧同位素组成

对大别造山带北麓的北淮阳庐镇关浅变质岩浆杂岩进行了锆石阴极发光显微结构观察、激光剥蚀等离子质谱锆石U-Pb定年以及单矿物激光氟化氧同位素分析。锆石阴极发光图像显示,这些样品中的锆石具有明显的振荡环带或片状分带,为典型的岩浆锆石。少数样品的锆石具有窄的蚀变边。锆石U-Pb定年结果表明,这些岩浆岩有较一致的形成年龄,变化范围为739±8Ma～754±5Ma。岩浆岩单矿物的氧同位素组成具有较大的变化范围,其中锆石δ~(18)O为1.39‰～6.81‰,石英为3.12‰～12.47‰,斜长石为0.71‰～8.38‰。锆石的δ~(18)O值在不同岩体和/或同一岩体的不同样品之间具有明显差别,反应了其初始岩浆在氧同位素组成上的不均一性。锆石与其它矿物之间表现出显著的氧同位素不平衡,说明它们经历了岩浆期后的扰动,其中部分样品受到了亚固相条件下高温热液蚀变作用的影响,还有部分样品在岩浆后期演化过程中可能同化混染了高δ~(18)O值的围岩。大多数锆石具有低于典型地慢锆石的δ~(18)O值,表现出~(18)O亏损特征。低δ~(18)O锆石的内部结构和化学组成表现出典型岩浆锆石的特征,表明这些低δ~(18)O锆石是从亏损~(18)O的岩浆中结晶出来的,而非热液蚀变成因。这一结果证明,扬子板块北缘新元古代低δ~(18)O锆石形成于热液蚀变岩石经部分熔融所形成的低δ~(18)O岩浆。结合这些样品的形成年龄,我们认为这些低δ~(18)O岩浆的形成与Rodinia超大陆裂解有关的地幔柱裂谷岩浆活动有关,并对应于全球性的雪球地球事件。此外,这些岩石中锆石U-Pb年龄与矿物δ~(18)O分布与大别造山带高压-超高压变火成岩原岩相似,指示北淮阳单元属于俯冲的扬子板块北缘     

A new interpretation of the structure of the Sept Iles Intrusive suite, Canada

The layered mafic intrusion at Sept Iles, Canada, is one of the largest intrusions in the world. A new interpretation of its structure is proposed, based on a review of its geology and a comparison with the Skaergaard intrusion, Greenland. Several different magmatic components are recognized; hence the name Sept Iles Intrusive suite (SIIS) is proposed. Emplacement of the suite may have been preceded by eruption of flood basalts. The first magmas of the suite rose in the crust to accumulate beneath the density filter afforded by the basalts. The largest component is the Sept Iles Mafic intrusion (SIMI). The Lower series of the SIMI is dominated by leucotroctolites and leucogabbros. Above it lie the Layered series, which is largely comprised of gabbro and troctolite. Both these units are unchanged from earlier interpretations. The anorthosites (s.l.), gabbros and monzogabbros, formerly called the Transitional series, are now considered to be the Upper Border series, developed by floatation of plagioclase. Common autoliths in the Layered series are parts of the hydrothermally altered Upper Border series from towards the interior of the intrusion, which have foundered and settled through the magma. The contamination of the magma that accompanied this event oxidised iron in the magma and led to the precipitation of magnetite around the periphery of the intrusion. The subsequent depletion of Fe³⁺ and/or increase in SiO₂, CaO and P₂O₅ may have induced apatite saturation and accumulation to form two layers rich in apatite, near the base and at top of the Layered series. Granitic magma was developed by fractional crystallisation and was emplaced along the roof of the chamber, where it acquired large quantities of xenoliths. These were probably derived from the flood basalts, their evolved members and fragments of mafic dykes chilled by the granitic magma. Accumulations of monzonite pillows in this unit testify to another magmatic event and a floor to the granitic magma chamber, indicating lateral transport of magma. Chemically distinct syenites in the upper part of the intrusion are part of the Point du Criade intrusion, a large, late composite sill. Diabase and leucogabbro components show a close link with the SIMI and all the acidic magmas may have originally formed by differentiation of the main magma in cupolas towards the centre of the intrusion. A series of late gabbro intrusions that cut the SIMI may represent a rejuvenation of magmatism. The Border zone is a mass of fine-grained rocks that occurs along the border of the SIMI: it may be another magmatic component, or just the lateral border series of the SIMI.     

幔源岩浆氧化还原状态及对岩浆矿床成矿的制约

岩浆的氧化还原状态是控制许多基本地质过程的关键热动力学参数之一。估算玄武质岩浆和源区岩石氧化还原状态的常用方法主要包括多价元素的价态、多价元素的分配系数、共存矿物对的化学平衡和全岩化学比值。岩石学实验的深入和分析技术手段的快速发展使精确估算岩浆氧逸度成为可能。这有力地促进了对地幔源区成分、岩浆的部分熔融程度和熔融方式与分异演化历史,以及岩浆矿床的成因机制及成矿过程的研究。幔源岩浆的氧化还原状态复杂多变,不仅与构造背景有关,还与地幔深度(压力)、交代作用和部分熔融有着密切联系。而在岩浆到达浅部地壳后,结晶分异、岩浆去气和同化混染等过程也能不同程度地改变岩浆的氧逸度。因此,即使来自同一构造背景的幔源岩浆也呈现出明显的氧逸度不均一性。氧逸度的高低对源区部分熔融过程中金属元素的地球化学行为、岩浆的分异演化趋势、Fe-Ti-V氧化物饱和时间的早晚和S在岩浆中的溶解度具有明显的控制作用。因此,岩浆的氧逸度对钒钛磁铁矿矿床和汇聚板块边缘的岩浆硫化物矿床的成矿过程具有显著的影响。     

长江中下游地区晚中生代岩浆岩氧逸度特征及意义

长江中下游地区是我国东部重要的多金属成矿区,区内中生代岩浆活动强烈,可分为4个阶段。本文选择代表性岩石,开展了锆石原位微量元素测试,结合全岩数据,应用拟合法、插值法进行锆石氧逸度估算。结果表明：相比插值法,拟合法获得的锆石氧逸度数据结果更加准确集中,分布趋势更加明显,尤其修改的M估计估算方法可有效削弱拟合法估算过程中遇到的轻重稀土元素异常分馏等不利影响。最终确定,基于全岩和锆石微量元素数据的最小二乘法估算结果更加符合实际。长江中下游地区晚中生代4个阶段岩浆岩的氧逸度普遍较高,其中第1和第4阶段岩浆岩氧逸度相似,为高氧逸度岩浆岩,第2与第3阶段岩浆岩的氧逸度较低,表现出晚中生代早期到晚期,岩浆氧逸度从高降低、再升高的变化趋势。各阶段岩浆岩的氧逸度高低与岩浆起源和成矿属性有着良好的对应关系。     

Post-collisional transition from calc-alkaline to alkaline volcanism during the Neogene in Oranie (Algeria): magmatic expression of a slab breakoff

During the Neogene, a magmatic change from calc-alkaline to alkaline types occurred in all the regions surrounding the western Mediterranean. This change has been studied in Oranie (western Algeria). In this area, potassic to shoshonitic calc-alkaline andesites (with La/Nb ratios in the range 4–6) were mainly erupted between 12 and 9 Ma. They were followed (between 10 and 7 Ma) by basalts displaying geochemical features which are transitional between calc-alkaline and alkaline lavas (La/Nb=1–1.7). After a ca. 3-Ma quiescence period, volcanic activity resumed, with the eruption of OIB-type alkaline basalts (La/Nb=0.5–0.6), from 4 to 0.8 Ma. A combined geochemical approach, using incompatible elements and Sr, Nd and O isotopes, allows us to conclude that the transitional basalts derived from the melting of a heterogeneous mantle source, at the boundary between lithosphere and asthenosphere. We propose that melting of a previously subduction-modified lithospheric mantle occurred between 12 and 10 Ma, in response to the upwelling of hot asthenosphere flowing up into an opening gap above a detached sinking slab. As a result, calc-alkaline magmas were formed. From 10 to 7 Ma, the transitional basalts were generated through melting of the boundary mantle zone between the lithosphere and the upwelling asthenosphere. During that stage, the contribution of the lithospheric source was still predominant. Then, as sinking of the oceanic slab progressed, the increasing uprise of the asthenosphere led to the formation and emplacement (from 4 to 0.8 Ma) of typical within-plate alkaline basalts derived from a plume-modified asthenospheric mantle.     

寄主岩浆硫化物和氧化物矿床的镁铁质-超镁铁质岩体对比分析与成矿过程评述

镁铁质-超镁铁质岩体是世界上岩浆硫化物(Ni-Cu-PGE)和氧化物(Fe-Ti-V-P)矿床的主要载体.全球主要岩浆硫化物和氧化物矿床均可以产于大火成岩省、克拉通区的裂谷带或伸展环境、褶皱带内的后碰撞伸展环境.寄主岩浆硫化物矿床的岩体规模相差甚大(从6×104km2到＜0.1km2),既有超镁铁质岩石组合也有镁铁质岩石组合,但其原生岩浆主要为拉斑玄武质岩浆.含镍铜的铂族元素矿床主要赋存于规模很大的层状岩体中,而镍铜硫化物矿床主要赋存于小岩体中.寄主钒钛磁铁矿或磁铁矿矿床的岩体主要是以辉长岩为主的层状杂岩体.寄主钛铁矿-磷灰石矿床的岩体均为层状的斜长岩-纹长二长岩-紫苏花岗岩岩体.尽管其岩石组合相差很大,但其原生岩浆均属拉斑玄武质.寄主硫化物矿床的岩体相对富Si、Mg、Cr、Ni,而寄主氧化物矿床的岩体相对富Fe-Ti-P-V,造岩矿物晶体化学也反映了这种差异.对全球主要含矿岩体的对比分析表明,导致这种反差的主要控制因素应该是岩浆生成时的压力状态,源区性质和熔融程度的差异可能只在局部范围内起作用.对岩浆硫化物矿床成矿过程的认识集中体现在金川模式和岩浆通道模式上,对岩浆氧化物矿床成矿过程的认识体现在氧化物和磷灰石是堆晶相还是从不混溶的矿浆中结晶的.对比分析表明,成矿过程具有多样性,试图用一种模式概括所有同类矿床成矿过程的想法未必可取.毫无疑问,适宜的氧化还原环境是形成岩浆矿床的必要务件,伴随岩浆演化及成矿过程的氧速度变化及其诱因问题尚待进一步探索.     

小秦岭金矿区花岗岩磷灰石-锆石对岩浆氧逸度的约束

小秦岭金矿区华山和文峪花岗岩体形成年龄与金成矿年龄相近,已知金矿多集中在文峪岩体周围,比较两岩体岩浆氧逸度的异同有利于判断其对金成矿影响的异同。本文利用两岩体磷灰石中锰离子价态和锆石钛含量,对岩浆的氧逸度进行了约束。计算表明,华山岩体成岩氧逸度lgf(O2)在-9.3^-5.1之间,而文峪岩体成岩氧逸度在-8.5^-6.1之间,均属大于HM缓冲线的高氧逸度环境。Au在还原状态易呈自然金而沉淀,氧化状态时易以Au+或Au3+迁移。故华山和文峪岩体的岩浆都不能对金形成地球化学障而使之分散。     

西藏驱龙矿区中新世侵入岩锆石微量和Hf-O同位素研究

碰撞环境下超大型矿床的形成通常经历了多期岩浆作用,但不同期次岩浆之间的成因关系以及成矿斑岩岩浆的形成机制尚未得到有效约束。位于青藏高原腹地的驱龙超大型斑岩铜矿床发育多套中新世岩浆岩,包括成矿前的花岗闪长岩（又称荣木错拉岩体）、成矿期二长花岗斑岩（简称P斑岩）和晚期二长花岗斑岩（简称X斑岩）,以及成矿后的高镁闪长玢岩,且在花岗闪长岩中发现有闪长质包体。如此丰富的岩浆岩组合为系统研究碰撞环境下斑岩矿床成矿岩浆的形成机制提供了契机。本文系统分析了驱龙矿区各类岩浆岩中的锆石微量元素及Hf-O同位素组成,并估算了驱龙矿区中新世岩浆氧化还原状态,约束了岩浆起源及演化过程,特别是成矿斑岩的形成过程。研究结果显示荣木错拉岩体及闪长质包体中锆石具有高的Ce/Ce^*值（平均值分别为111、117）和相似的Hf-O同位素组成,其εHf （t）值主要变化于+7~+10及+7~+9之间,δ¹⁸O值主要变化于+5.6‰~+7.1‰和+4.7‰~+7.0‰之间;而P斑岩中锆石具有类似的δ¹⁸O值（+4.6‰~+6.4‰）,但Ce/Ce^*值（29~405,平均值149）及εHf （t）值（+5~+10）变化范围明显偏大;高镁闪长玢岩的锆石δ¹⁸O值与P斑岩类似（+5.2‰~+6.3‰）,但εHf （t）值（+3~+7）明显偏低,不过,其锆石Ce/Ce^*值（34~252,平均值159）也显示较大的变化范围。荣木错拉岩体及闪长岩包体正εHf （t）值、中等偏高的δ¹⁸O值表明其起源于新生下地壳;高镁闪长玢岩较低的εHf （t）及δ¹⁸O值显示其起源于Hf同位素组分已被强烈改造的地幔;而P斑岩变化、且整体介于荣木错拉岩体和高镁闪长玢岩之间的锆石Hf同位素组成表明其为荣木错拉岩体所代表的壳源岩浆与高镁闪长玢岩所代表的幔源岩浆混合的产物。驱龙中新世岩浆岩中高镁闪长玢岩中的锆石Ce/Ce^*值最高,表明高镁闪长玢岩所代表的岩浆氧逸度也最高,因此,P斑岩形成过程中幔源物质的加入不仅可以提供水,也可以抬升岩浆的氧逸度,促使饱和的硫化物发生分解进而被利用,这是P斑岩能够成矿的关键之一。     

Chromite compositions in nickel sulphide mineralized intrusions of the Kabanga-Musongati-Kapalagulu Alignment,East Africa: Petrologic and exploration significance

Chromite is a ubiquitous accessory mineral in the olivine-pyroxene cumulate bodies that host massive and disseminated nickel sulphide mineralization in intrusions of the Kabanga-Musongati-Kapalagulu Alignment in East Africa. Its composition is related to the conditions of emplacement and petrologic evolution of its host magma in a spectrum of intrusions ranging from classical lopolithic layered intrusions to groups of smaller, discrete sill-like chonoliths.The Kapalagulu lopolithic intrusion, emplaced into polymetamorphosed Archæan-Palæoproterozoic crust, contains abundant chromite with relatively oxidized compositions, whereas chromites from the highly-mineralized Kabanga chonolith intrusions, emplaced into graphitic and sulphidic schists, are strongly reduced in terms of their Fe³⁺/Fe^total ratio. Ni in chromite correlates with Ni in olivine: Ni in both is depleted in the more strongly sulphide-mineralized intrusions. The Musongati intrusion, also emplaced through graphitic schists, but much larger and less-well mineralized in sulphides than Kabanga, has chromites intermediate in character. The compositions of the chromites can be used to determine the petrologic history of the intrusions, and may prove to be a useful exploration tool in such mineralized belts.     

A reassessment of models for hydrocarbon generation in the Khibiny nepheline syenite complex, Kola Peninsula, Russia

Although hydrocarbon-bearing fluids have been known from the alkaline igneous rocks of the Khibiny intrusion for many years, their origin remains enigmatic. A recently proposed model of post-magmatic hydrocarbon (HC) generation through Fischer-Tropsch (FT) type reactions suggests the hydration of Fe-bearing phases and release of H₂ which reacts with magmatically derived CO₂ to form CH₄ and higher HCs. However, new petrographic, microthermometric, laser Raman, bulk gas and isotope data are presented and discussed in the context of previously published work in order to reassess models of HC generation. The gas phase is dominated by CH₄ with only minor proportions of higher hydrocarbons. No remnants of the proposed primary CO₂-rich fluid are found in the complex. The majority of the fluid inclusions are of secondary nature and trapped in healed microfractures. This indicates a high fluid flux after magma crystallisation. Entrapment conditions for fluid inclusions are 450–550 °C at 2.8–4.5 kbar. These temperatures are too high for hydrocarbon gas generation through the FT reaction. Chemical analyses of rims of Fe-rich phases suggest that they are not the result of alteration but instead represent changes in magma composition during crystallisation. Furthermore, there is no clear relationship between the presence of Fe-rich minerals and the abundance of fluid inclusion planes (FIPs) as reported elsewhere. δ¹³C values for methane range from − 22.4‰ to − 5.4‰, confirming a largely abiogenic origin for the gas. The presence of primary CH₄-dominated fluid inclusions and melt inclusions, which contain a methane-rich gas phase, indicates a magmatic origin of the HCs. An increase in methane content, together with a decrease in δ¹³C isotope values towards the intrusion margin suggests that magmatically derived abiogenic hydrocarbons may have mixed with biogenic hydrocarbons derived from the surrounding country rocks.     

滇西北休瓦促钨钼矿区复式岩体地质及其成矿特征——来自年代学、氧逸度和地球化学的约束

休瓦促钨钼矿床位于义敦岛弧南段的香格里拉北部,目前已达中-大型。该区发育由两期岩体(晚三叠世的黑云母花岗岩和晚白垩世的斑状二长花岗岩)叠加而成的复式岩体,而该矿区钨钼矿形成于82~86Ma。然而,两期岩体间关系,以及晚三叠世岩体对矿床的形成有怎样的贡献,目前未有报道。笔者通过对两期岩体形成时间及其地球化学特征的研究,从成岩年代学、岩浆氧逸度等方面探究上述问题,并揭示两期岩体的成矿特征,为找矿实践提供一定的参考依据。研究表明,黑云母花岗岩结晶年龄为211.7±2.6Ma,SiO_2偏高(69.48%~73.73%),属高钾的钾玄质系列,偏铝质,富集轻稀土元素和大离子亲石元素而亏损重稀土元素以及高场强元素Nb、Sr、Ti等,有微弱的负Eu异常,岩浆氧逸度相对较高(fO_2=-19.4~-9.1,平均-13.7);斑状二长花岗岩结晶年龄为76.8±3.8Ma,且有一颗锆石核部的年龄值为219±2.6Ma,该岩体与前者有相似的地球化学特征,SiO_2高(67.35%~75.65%),属偏铝质的钾玄质系列,ΣREE较高,高于黑云母花岗岩,铕负异常明显大于前者,岩浆氧逸度相对较低(fO_2=-30.4~-18.2,平均-23.4)。据此,结合休瓦促矿区断层发育情况,提出矿区内两期岩体以近南北向F_4为界呈断层接触关系,北西向走滑断层(F_1-F_3)为控矿构造。本文认为,晚期斑状二长花岗岩对早期黑云母花岗岩具有一定的继承性关系,黑云母花岗岩来源于晚三叠世甘孜-理塘洋向西俯冲环境下地壳的部分熔融,岩浆富水、氧逸度高,利于形成Cu-Au矿床,且在找矿实践中得到部分验证;斑状二长花岗岩来源于加厚下地壳的部分熔融,岩浆贫水、氧逸度低于黑云母花岗岩,与W-Mo矿床相关。即,晚白垩世岩浆热液沿矿区断裂-裂隙系统运移,继承和发展早期岩浆活动,形成脉状细晶岩和W-Mo矿床。     

斜长石和橄榄石成分对四川攀枝花钒钛磁铁矿床成因的指示意义

攀枝花岩体下部和中部岩相带各旋回中磁铁辉长岩和辉长岩的岩相结构特征表明,钛铁氧化物和斜长石、橄榄石的结晶发生在相近的温度区间内,这为我们利用斜长石和橄榄石的成分探讨磁铁矿形成时温度、氧逸度和岩浆成分的变化提供了可能.电子探针分析结果表明,下部和中部岩相带中斜长石An牌号自下向上有规律地逐渐降低,而在每一个旋回内部,橄榄石的F(o)值总是由磁铁辉长岩向辉长岩表现出强烈降低的趋势.这些特征说明攀枝花岩体经历了多次富铁钛的岩浆的补充.斜长石An牌号小幅度的规律性降低说明岩浆氧逸度和Fe3/Fe2+比值变化对斜长石成分影响很小,因此,我们可以根据斜长石成分估计钛铁氧化物结晶过程中温度变化.然而,同一旋回中橄榄石Fo值变化较大说明橄榄石成分在很大程度上取决于岩浆中的Fe3+/Fe2+和Fe2 +/Mg含量,因此,可以根据橄榄石成分分析磁铁辉长岩与辉长岩形成过程中氧逸度和Fe3+/Fe2比值的相对变化.计算得到下部和中部岩相带中斜长石的结晶温度介于1079～1121℃之间,认为钛铁氧化物的结晶也大致发生在此温度区间;根据同一旋回中磁铁辉长岩与邻近辉长岩中橄榄石Fo值的差异,发现每次新补充的岩浆分离结晶过程中氧逸度总是逐渐降低,这与前人对封闭体系岩浆结晶分异过程中氧逸度变化规律的认识一致.

氧逸度对攀枝花岩体成岩成矿作用的制约:来自锆石微量元素的证据

本文报道了攀枝花钒钛磁铁矿含矿岩体边缘岩相带中的苦橄玢岩和岩体中淡色辉长岩的锆石微量元素特征。结果表明二者所含锆石都具有明显的Ce正异常和Eu负异常,以及轻稀土元素亏损和重稀土元素富集的特征,其Th/U比值为0.35~3.23,都属于典型的岩浆锆石。本次研究利用最新实验标定的锆石氧逸度计对苦橄玢岩和淡色辉长岩的氧逸度进行了估算。估算结果表明苦橄玢岩和淡色辉长岩均具较高的氧逸度,分别为QFM+0.3~QFM+2.5和QFM+0.7~QFM+3（QFM为石英-铁橄榄石-磁铁矿缓冲剂）。苦橄玢岩作为来自深部岩浆房侵入到攀枝花主岩体的富橄榄石"晶粥体",其高氧逸度的特征反映出攀枝花岩体的原生岩浆以及地幔源区是相对氧化的,而导致这一结果的原因很可能与古老俯冲事件导致的地幔交代作用有关。通过地幔柱-岩石圈相互作用,在较高氧逸度下发生部分熔融形成了铁质苦橄岩及其堆晶作用产物苦橄玢岩。此外,淡色辉长岩的氧逸度也显示出较高的特征,这说明这种氧化的特征很可能是贯穿了整个成岩过程的,对钒钛磁铁矿成矿,特别是导致铁钛氧化物早期结晶起到了不可忽视的作用。     

The Grader layered intrusion (Havre-Saint-Pierre Anorthosite, Quebec) and genesis of nelsonite and other Fe–Ti–P ores

The Grader layered intrusion is part of the Havre-Saint-Pierre anorthosite in the Grenville Province (Quebec, Canada). This intrusion has a basin-like morphology and contains significant resources of Fe–Ti–P in ilmenite and apatite. Outcropping lithologies are massive oxide alternating with anorthosite layers, banded ilmenite–apatite–plagioclase rocks and layered oxide apatite (gabbro-)norites. Drill cores provide evidence for stratigraphic variations of mineral and whole rock compositions controlled by fractional crystallization with the successive appearance of liquidus phases: plagioclase and ilmenite followed by apatite, then orthopyroxene together with magnetite, and finally clinopyroxene. This atypical sequence of crystallization resulted in the formation of plagioclase–ilmenite–apatite cumulates or “nelsonites” in plagioclase-free layers. Fine-grained ferrodiorites that cross-cut the cumulates are shown to be in equilibrium with the noritic rocks. The high TiO₂ and P₂O₅ contents of these assumed liquids explains the early saturation of ilmenite and apatite before Fe–Mg silicates, thus the nelsonites represent cumulates rather than crystallized Fe–Ti–P-rich immiscible melts. The location of the most evolved mineral and whole rock compositions several tens of meters below the top of the intrusion, forming a sandwich horizon, is consistent with crystallization both from the base and top of the intrusion. The concentrations of V and Cr in ilmenite display a single fractionation path for the different cumulus assemblages and define the cotectic proportion of ilmenite to 21 wt.%. This corresponds to bulk cotectic cumulates with ca. 8 wt.% TiO₂, which is significantly lower than what is commonly observed in the explored portion of the Grader intrusion. The proposed mechanism of ilmenite-enrichment is the lateral removal of plagioclase due to its relative buoyancy in the dense ferrodiorite melt. This plagioclase has probably accumulated in other portions of the intrusion or has not been distinguished from the host anorthosite.     

皖南侏罗-白垩纪两类花岗岩的岩石成因、氧逸度特征及成矿意义

皖南地区北接长江中下游铜铁金成矿带,南临赣东北德兴铜、金矿集区,成矿潜力巨大。迄今已在区域内发现多个大中型W、Mo、Cu、Au矿床。本次研究选取多个可能与成矿有关的小型花岗岩体进行岩石成因、氧逸度高低及其成矿潜力分析。研究发现:皖南侏罗-白垩纪发育两期花岗岩,早期花岗岩主要形成于160~140±5Ma,岩性多为花岗闪长岩等偏中性岩石,岩石成因与中晚侏罗世的板块俯冲挤压有关。晚期花岗岩主要形成于140±5~120Ma,岩性以花岗岩、正长花岗岩以及碱性花岗岩为主,岩石的成因与构造体制转换之后的伸展环境有关。利用锆石中稀土微量元素的含量计算出皖南及相邻地区早期(160~140±5Ma)花岗岩普遍具有比较高的Ce4+/Ce3+值,即岩浆具有高氧逸度;而晚期(140±5~120Ma)花岗岩的Ce4+/Ce3+值普遍偏低,指示了岩浆具有较低的氧逸度。通过对氧逸度与成矿关系的分析,认为皖南燕山早期发育的花岗质岩类具有良好的铜、金、钼找矿潜力。     

河北矾山超钾质岩浆氧逸度及含水性特征的磷灰石地球化学记录

产于华北克拉通北缘的晚三叠世矾山超钾质碱性岩杂岩体主要由单斜辉石岩和辉石正长岩等组成,以发育内生磷灰石-磁铁矿矿床而闻名。本文选取矾山杂岩体中的磷灰石为研究对象,通过测试磷灰石的主微量元素及原位Sr-Nd同位素组成以探讨母岩浆的氧逸度及含水性特征。研究表明,矾山磷灰石以轻稀土元素富集、重稀土元素亏损为特征,显示出缺乏显著Ce异常的“右倾”的稀土配分型式,且具有较低的Ga含量及较高的δEu值,暗示杂岩体具有较高的岩浆氧逸度,这也得到了磷灰石Mn氧逸度计的支持。所有磷灰石以高Sr、低Y为特征,具有较高的Sr/Y(>30)和La/Yb(>90)比值,且Sr/Y与La/Yb存在明显的正相关关系,表明矾山超钾质岩浆具有较高的含水量。矾山磷灰石的原位Sr-Nd同位素投点位于地幔序列,明显偏离地壳趋势。母岩浆的“氧化且富水”特征是矾山杂岩体得以发生磷灰石-磁铁矿矿化的重要因素,其主要与板片俯冲过程中蚀变洋壳对岩石圈地幔的交代作用有关。通过对比矾山杂岩体与全球范围内其他地质环境中磷灰石的成分数据,发现具有“高Sr、低F、少Cl”特征的磷灰石可作为识别超钾质碱性岩杂岩体(及其相关金属矿床)的...     

The mineral isotope composition of two Precambrian carbonatite complexes from the Kola Alkaline Province – Alteration versus primary magmatic signatures

We investigated the isotope composition (O, C, Sr, Nd, Pb) in mineral separates of the two Precambrian carbonatite complexes Tiksheozero (1.98 Ga) and Siilinjärvi (2.61 Ga) from the Karelian–Kola region in order to obtain information on Precambrian mantle heterogeneity. All isotope systems yield a large range of variations. The combination of cathodoluminescence imaging with stable and radiogenic isotopes on the same samples and mineral separates indicates various processes that caused shifts in isotope systems. Primary isotope signatures are preserved in most calcites (O, C, Sr, Pb), apatites (O, Sr, Nd), amphiboles (O), magnetites (O), and whole rocks (Sr, Nd).

The primary igneous C and O isotope composition is different for both complexes (Tiksheozero: δ¹³C = − 5.0‰, δ¹⁸O = 6.9‰; Siilinjärvi: δ¹³C = − 3.7‰, δ¹⁸O = 7.4‰) but very uniform and requires homogenization of both carbon and oxygen in the carbonatite melt. The lowest Sr isotope ratios of our carbonates and apatites from the Archaean Siilinjärvi (0.70137) and the Palaeoproterozoic Tiksheozero (0.70228) complexes are in the range of bulk silicate earth (BSE). Positive ε_Nd values of the two carbonatites point to very early Archaean enrichment of Sm/Nd in the Fennoscandian mantle. No HIMU components could be detected in the two complexes, whereas Tiksheozero carbonatites give the first indication of Palaeoproterozoic U depletion for Fennoscandia.

Sub-solidus exchange processes with water during emplacement and cooling of carbonatites caused an increase in the oxygen isotope composition of some carbonates and probably also an increase of their ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr ratio. A larger increase of initial Sr isotope ratios was found in carbonatized silicic rocks compared to carbonatite bodies. The Svecofennian metamorphic overprint (1.9–1.7 Ga) caused reset of Rb/Sr (mainly mica) and Pb/Pb (mainly apatite) isochron systems.
