大别山超高压榴辉岩和花岗片麻岩中锆石Lu-Hf同位素研究

对大别山超高压榴辉岩和花岗片麻岩进行了锆石Lu-Hf同位素分析,结果为原岩来源提供了制约,表明扬子陆块在Rodinia超大陆裂解时的裂谷岩浆活动中发生了显著的陆壳生长.对这些锆石的不同区域进行的U-Pb和Lu-Hf同位素分析和比较表明,不同成因的锆石在^206Pb/^238U年龄、初始Hf同位素组成、Th/U及Lu/Hf比值等方面具有明显的差异.与年龄较老的岩浆核部和幔部相比,年轻的变质增生边具有低的Th/U和Lu/Hf比值但高的εHf（t）值.不同成因锆石的Th/U和Lu/Hf比值存在着正相关性,表明变质作用对锆石的U-Th-Pb和Lu-Hf同位素体系有着相似的影响.高级变质作用有时能够引起岩浆锆石增生边^176Hf/^177Hf比值的显著升高,导致变质新生颗粒或增生边类似于新生地壳的高εHf（t）值假象.对榴辉岩和片麻岩锆石核部的分析发现,镁铁质和长英质原岩在大约750 Ma左右形成一个双峰式火山岩套,另外包含少量的年龄约为2.15 Ga的陆壳.初始Hf同位素组成可分成两组：第一组具有正的εHf（t）值,为5.9±0.9～12.9±0.7;第二组εHf（t）值在零左右,为-4.3±0.5～2.3±0.3.正的εHf（t）值与较年轻的模式年龄相对应,负的εHf（t）值与古元古代模式年龄相对应.前者表明,在扬子陆块北缘裂谷岩浆作用将亏损地幔物质加入到大陆地壳中,同时在新元古代中期的裂谷构造带中存在同时期的壳-幔相互作用.因此,在扬子陆块北缘新元古代中期裂谷岩浆活动中,既有新生地壳生长和即时再造,也有古老地壳再造.     

大别造山带黄镇榴辉岩矿物不同类型地质温度计应用和对比

常用于测定榴辉岩形成温度的有石榴石-绿辉石Fe-Mg配分温度计和石英-矿物对氧同位素温度计。最近的自然观察和实验测定发现，金红石中的Zr含量与温度之间存在线性关系，因此能够用于变质岩测温。本文首次将这三种温度计用于同一产地榴辉岩及其中的石英脉。对大别造山带黄镇低温超高压榴辉岩中金红石Zr含量的温度计算得到，产于矿物内部金红石Zr含量温度明显地高于粒间金红石Zr含量温度，产于矿物石榴石、绿辉石和黝帘石内部金红石Zr含量温度主要集中在528～589℃之间，而产于粒间金红石的温度主要集中在465～528℃之间。榴辉岩中金红石Zr含量最高的产于石榴石中，但是所计算的温度503～589℃仍然不同程度地低于榴辉岩形成温度670℃。石英脉中金红石Zr含量温度主要集中在465～528℃之间。石英-耐熔矿物对氧同位素温度主要集中在650～695℃之间，表明耐熔矿物石榴石、锆石和蓝晶石在该区榴辉岩中相对其它矿物来说保存最好，退变质作用最弱，因此其氧同位素温度与峰期超高压榴辉岩相变质奈件基本一致。而石英．易熔矿物对温度主要集中在450～510℃之间，与易熔矿物绿辉石、钠云母、斜黝帘石／黝帘石在榴辉岩中蚀变强烈一致，反映了角闪岩相退变质阶段的流体活动。石榴石-单斜辉石Fe-Mg配分温度结果分为三组：795～863℃、629～679℃和468～572℃，其中后两组与金红石Zr含量和石英-矿物对氧同位素测温结果具有可比较性，指示了榴辉岩相变质和角闪岩相退变质过程中的Fe-Mg交换平衡，而第一组温度明显高于已知的榴辉岩相变质温度，表明绿辉石后成合晶导致了部分石榴石与单斜辉石之间的Fe-Mg不平衡。榴辉岩折返过程中的流体活动可能是导致矿物之间元素和同位素扩散交换再平衡或不平衡的基本原因。粒内金红石Zr含量温度仍然不同程度地低于榴辉岩形成温度，可能说明其在进变质过程中形成后相对“孤立”，即使在峰期榴辉岩相条件下也不能与锆石之间达到Zr配分再平衡。粒间金红石Zr含量降低可能与金红石重结晶有关，结果导致它们与锆石之间的Zr配分平衡遭到破坏。     

Subduction channel fluid-rock interaction:Indications from rutile-quartz veins within eclogite from the Yuka terrane,North Qaidam orogen

High-pressure(HP)or ultrahigh-pressure(UHP)rutile-quartz veins that form at mantle depths due to fluid-rock interaction can be used to trace the properties and behavior of natural fluids in subduction zones.To explore the fluid flow and the associated element mobility during deep subduction and exhumation of the continental crust,we investigated the major and trace elements of Ti-rich minerals.Additionally,U–Pb dating,trace element contents,and Lu–Hf isotopic composition of zircon grains in the UHP eclogite and associated rutile-quartz veins were examined in the North Qaidam UHP metamorphic belt,Yuka terrane.The zircon grains in the rutile-quartz veins have unzoned or weak oscillatory zonings,and show low Th/U ratios,steep chondrite-normalized patterns of heavy rare earth elements(HREEs),and insignificant negative Eu anomalies,indicating their growth in metamorphic fluids.These zircon grains formed in 431
3 Ma,which is consistent with the 432
2 Ma age of the host eclogite.As for the zircons in the rutile-quartz veins,they showed steep HREE patterns on one hand,and were different from the zircons present in the host eclogite on the other.This demonstrates that their formation might have been related to the breakdown of the early stage of garnet,which corresponds to the abundance of fluids during the early exhumation stage.The core-rim profile analyses of rutile recorded a two-stage rutile growth across a large rutile grain;the rutile core has higher Nb,Ta,W,and Zr contents and lower Nb/Ta ratios than the rim,indicating that the rutile domains grew in different metamorphic fluids from the core towards the rim.The significant enrichment of high field strength elements(HFSEs)in the rutile core suggests that the peak fluids have high solubility and transportation capacity of these HFSEs.Furthermore,variations in the Nb vs.Cr trends in rutile indicate a connection of rutile to mafic protolith.The zircon grains from both the rutile-quartz veins and the host eclogite have similar Hf isotopic compositions,indicating that the vein-forming fluids are internally derived from the host eclogite.These fluids accumulated in the subduction channel and were triggered by local dehydration of the deeply subducted eclogite during the early exhumation conditions.     

北大别超高压榴辉岩的快速折返与缓慢冷却过程

岩石学研究表明,北大别超高压榴辉岩经过了超高压和高压榴辉岩相变质作用以及麻粒岩相叠加和角闪岩相退变质作用.其中,高压麻粒岩相和角闪岩相变质阶段形成的后成合晶以及石榴子石和单斜辉石等矿物中成分分带的存在,证明该区榴辉岩经历了一个快速折返过程;而不同变质阶段的温度、压力和形成时代,却反映该区榴辉岩在峰期超高压变质作用之后又经历了一个缓慢冷却过程.超高压岩石折返期间的缓慢冷却过程也许正是北大别长期难以发现柯石英和有关超高压证据的重要原因.因此,本文为大别山不同超高压岩片的差异折返模型的建立提供了新的证据.     

北大别铙钹寨榴辉岩的多期变质与熔流体交代作用

铙钹寨镁铁-超镁铁质岩体被认为是北大别地体下方岩石圈地幔的碎块,并随着三叠纪的华北和华南的大陆碰撞而一同经历了深俯冲和折返过程,对其进行详细的研究可以为我们更好地理解陆-陆碰撞过程中的壳幔相互作用、物质迁移、多期变质和熔流体交代等地球动力学过程提供信息。本文应用电子探针和LA-ICP-MS对铙钹寨榴辉岩进行了系统的元素环带、出溶结构和熔体包裹体研究,揭示出该岩体至少经历了三期变质事件,两期矿物出溶和两期熔体交代过程。峰期变质矿物组合为含金红石出溶体的石榴石核部+其内包裹的绿辉石,石榴石中金红石±磷灰石矿物出溶体和绿辉石包裹体中的金红石±石英±磷灰石出溶片晶指示该岩体确定经历过超高压变质作用,流体活动以高盐度的卤水±氮气的流体为主,峰期变质作用过程中无熔体活动痕迹。高压麻粒岩相变质矿物组合为Ⅱ期石榴石+紫苏辉石+基质具有出溶石英片晶结构的富Na单斜辉石,流体活动以CO2流体为主,熔体包裹体记录了在折返初期,高压麻粒岩相变质之前存在一期小规模的硫化物熔体活动。晚期角闪岩相退变质矿物组合为透辉石+角闪石+长石,流体活动以低盐度水溶液为主,并伴随着一期壳源的硅酸盐熔体交代事件。根据矿物环带、出溶结构和熔体包裹体化学组合及分布特征,并结合前人的研究成果,我们得出了该岩体较为完整的变质演化和熔-流体交代的P-T-t-E/F/M轨迹。     

Element mobility during continental collision: insights from polymineralic metamorphic vein within UHP eclogite in the Dabie orogen

Metamorphic dehydration and partial melting are two important processes during continental collision. They have significant bearing on element transport at the slab interface under subduction‐zone P–T conditions. Petrological and geochemical insights into the two processes are provided by a comprehensive study of leucocratic veins in ultrahigh‐pressure (UHP) metamorphic rocks. This is exemplified by this study of a polymineralic vein within phengite‐bearing UHP eclogite in the Dabie orogen. The vein is primarily composed of quartz, kyanite, epidote and phengite, with minor accessory minerals such as garnet, rutile and zircon. Primary multiphase solid inclusions occur in garnet and epidote from the both vein and host eclogite. They are composed of quartz ± K‐feldspar ± plagioclase ± K‐bearing glass and exhibit irregular to negative crystal shapes that are surrounded by weak radial cracks. This suggests their precipitation from solute‐rich metamorphic fluid/melt that involved the reaction of phengite breakdown. Zircon U–Pb dating for the vein gave two groups of concordant ages at 217 ± 2 and 210 ± 2 Ma, indicating two episodes of zircon growth in the Late Triassic. The same minerals from the two rocks give consistent δ¹⁸O and δD values, suggesting that the vein‐forming fluid was directly derived from the host UHP eclogite. The vein is much richer in phengite and epidote than the host eclogite, suggesting that the fluid is associated with remarkable concentration of such water‐soluble elements as LILE and LREE migration. Garnet and rutile in the vein exhibit much higher contents of HREE (2.2–5.7 times) and Nb–Ta (1.8–2.0 times) than those in the eclogite, indicating that these normally water‐insoluble elements became mobile and then were sunken in the vein minerals. Thus, the vein‐forming agent would be primarily composed of the UHP aqueous fluid with minor amounts of the hydrous melt, which may even become a supercritical fluid to have a capacity to transport not only LILE and LREE but also HREE and HFSE at subduction‐zone metamorphic conditions. Taken together, significant amounts of trace elements were transported by the vein‐forming fluid due to the phengite breakdown inside the UHP eclogite during exhumation of the deeply subducted continental crust.     

苏北青龙山超高压变质榴辉岩流体包裹体特征与流体演化

根据青龙山超高压变质榴辉岩中流体包裹体的化学成分、矿物中的分布特征将岩石中的流体包裹体分为五类,即富N2包裹体、高盐度(22.4-略大于23.2wt%NaCl)的NaCl CaCl2 H2O体系流体包裹体、中高盐度(12.6-16.0wt%NaCl)的含Mg2 或Fe2 的NaCl H2O体系流体包裹体、中等盐度(6.4-10.5wt%NaCl)水溶液包裹体和低盐度(3.3-0.2wt%NaCl)的水溶液包裹体。富N2包裹体形成于超高压变质峰期阶段,高盐度的流体包裹体形成于超高压变质岩折返早期固体出溶体出溶阶段,中高盐度的流体包裹体形成于高压变质重结晶作用阶段,中等盐度的流体包裹体形成于角闪岩相变质重结晶作用阶段,低盐度的流体包裹体形成于折返晚期的绿片岩退变质作用阶段。超高压变质峰期阶段和折返早期的高盐度流体和中高盐度的流体主要来自继承原岩中的流体(如含NH4 矿物分解或片麻岩原岩中的有机质分解,名义上无水矿物中羧基水的出溶),晚期角闪岩相退变质阶段的中等盐度的流体除名义上无水矿物中羟基水的出溶外还有外来流体的加入,绿片岩相退变质作用阶段的流体主要为外来流体。     

苏鲁超高压变质带桃行榴辉岩及高压脉体中流体包裹体研究

桃行榴辉岩是苏鲁超高压变质带中段主要榴辉岩体密集分布区之一。流体包裹体研究表明,榴辉岩矿物及高压脉体石英中捕获有五种类型的流体包裹体：在超高压-高压榴辉岩相条件下捕获的N2±CH4包裹体;在榴辉岩发生麻粒岩相叠加变质作用期间被捕获的B型纯CO2液相包裹体;在高压榴辉岩重结晶阶段被捕获的C型CO2-H2O包裹体和D型高盐度水溶液包裹体;超高压岩石折返过程中的最晚阶段（角闪岩相退变质甚至更晚）捕获的E型低盐度水溶液包裹体。利用榴辉岩矿物及高压脉体石英中捕获的流体包裹体类型及期次可以重建超高压变质作用板片折返过程中的流体性状与演化,而石榴石中捕获的纯CO2包裹体为本区榴辉岩相岩石遭受了麻粒岩相叠加提供了佐证。     

桐柏造山带榴辉岩早古生代高压变质作用的发现

桐柏造山带是连接秦岭造山带和红安-大别造山带的枢纽,一直被认为是三叠纪变质带。本文通过对其南部高压榴辉岩带内榴辉岩和白云母石英片岩的全岩化学、锆石U-Pb年代学和Lu-Hf同位素地球化学研究,首次确定该地区的榴辉岩存在早古生代变质作用。榴辉岩主要由石榴石、绿辉石和角闪石组成,含少量多硅白云母、石英和金红石等。榴辉岩中锆石的²⁰⁶Pb/²³⁸U加权平均年龄为452±5Ma,这些锆石具有低Th/U比值、低¹⁷⁶Lu/¹⁷⁷Hf比值,并具有平坦的HREE配分型式和无Eu负异常的特征,即为典型榴辉岩相的变质锆石。因此,452Ma代表该榴辉岩的变质时间。此外,白云母石英片岩中的锆石SIMS定年也获得450±93Ma的下交点年龄,证明白云母石英片岩与榴辉岩皆记录了早古生代的变质事件。榴辉岩的主微量元素及锆石Hf同位素特征反映榴辉岩原岩形成于板内环境,并且在侵位过程中遭到古老地壳物质的混染。结合桐柏造山带内不同岩石类型中早古生代的变质年龄,表明早古生代的变质作用在桐柏造山带内是普遍存在的。同时,桐柏造山带早古生代榴辉岩相变质事件的发现,进一步说明其经历了从古生代到中生代多阶段的构造演化。

     

Ultrahigh-pressure eclogite transformed from mafic granulite in the Dabie orogen, east-central China

Although ultrahigh‐pressure (UHP) metamorphic rocks are present in many collisional orogenic belts, almost all exposed UHP metamorphic rocks are subducted upper or felsic lower continental crust with minor mafic boudins. Eclogites formed by subduction of mafic lower continental crust have not been identified yet. Here an eclogite occurrence that formed during subduction of the mafic lower continental crust in the Dabie orogen, east‐central China is reported. At least four generations of metamorphic mineral assemblages can be discerned: (i) hypersthene + plagioclase ± garnet; (ii) omphacite + garnet + rutile + quartz; (iii) symplectite stage of garnet + diopside + hypersthene + ilmenite + plagioclase; (iv) amphibole + plagioclase + magnetite, which correspond to four metamorphic stages: (a) an early granulite facies, (b) eclogite facies, (c) retrograde metamorphism of high‐pressure granulite facies and (d) retrograde metamorphism of amphibolite facies. Mineral inclusion assemblages and cathodoluminescence images show that zircon is characterized by distinctive domains of core and a thin overgrowth rim. The zircon core domains are classified into two types: the first is igneous with clear oscillatory zonation ± apatite and quartz inclusions; and the second is metamorphic containing a granulite facies mineral assemblage of garnet, hypersthene and plagioclase (andesine). The zircon rims contain garnet, omphacite and rutile inclusions, indicating a metamorphic overgrowth at eclogite facies. The almost identical ages of the two types of core domains (magmatic = 791 ± 9 Ma and granulite facies metamorphic zircon = 794 ± 10 Ma), and the Triassic age (212 ± 10 Ma) of eclogitic facies metamorphic overgrowth zircon rim are interpreted as indicating that the protolith of the eclogite is mafic granulite that originated from underplating of mantle‐derived magma onto the base of continental crust during the Neoproterozoic (c. 800 Ma) and then subducted during the Triassic, experiencing UHP eclogite facies metamorphism at mantle depths. The new finding has two‐fold significance: (i) voluminous mafic lower continental crust can increase the average density of subducted continental lithosphere, thus promoting its deep subduction; (ii) because of the current absence of mafic lower continental crust in the Dabie orogen, delamination or recycling of subducted mafic lower continental crust can be inferred as the geochemical cause for the mantle heterogeneity and the unusually evolved crustal composition.     

大别山金河桥榴辉岩的精细P-T轨迹与多阶段折返

大别山金河桥榴辉岩的岩石学和矿物学资料记录了5个阶段的变质作用,除第一阶段代表峰期变质作用外,其余变质阶段均属退变质过程。根据各变质阶段矿物组合的矿物成分分析,应用适当的温度压力计,估算出各变质阶段的变质温度和压力,第一阶段的变质温压条件为T=797℃和P=3．50GPa;第二阶段的变质温压条件为T=667℃和P=2．72GPa,第三阶段的变质温压条件为T=660℃,P=1．50GPa;第四阶段的变质温压条件为T=616℃和P=1．10GPa;第五阶段的温压条件为T=450—550℃。P=0．40～0．70GPa。根据岩石学P-T轨迹和最近发表的年代学数据,归纳出一条较精细的P-T-t轨迹,包括快速降温降压→极快速等温降压→相对快速降温降压→慢速降温降压等四段,代表了从地下115km折返出露地表的四阶段折返过程。     

Development of fluid conduits in the auriferous shear zones of the Hutti Gold Mine, India: evidence for spatially and temporally heterogeneous fluid flow

The gold mineralization of the Hutti Mine is hosted by nine parallel, N–S trending, steeply dipping, 2–10 m wide shear zones, that transect Archaean amphibolites. The shear zones were formed after peak metamorphism during retrograde ductile D₂ shearing in the lower amphibolite facies. They were reactivated in the lower to mid greenschist facies by brittle–ductile D₃ shearing and intense quartz veining. The development of a S₂–S₃ crenulation cleavage facilitates the discrimination between the two deformation events and contemporaneous alteration and gold mineralization. Ductile D₂ shearing is associated with a pervasively developed distal chlorite–sericite alteration assemblage in the outer parts of the shear zones and the proximal biotite–plagioclase alteration in the center of the shear zones. D₃ is characterized by development of the inner chlorite-K-feldspar alteration, which forms a centimeter-scale alteration halo surrounding the laminated quartz veins and replaces earlier biotite along S₃. The average size of the laminated vein systems is 30–50 m along strike as well as down-dip and 2–6 m in width.Mass balance calculations suggest strong metasomatic changes for the proximal biotite–plagioclase alteration yielding mass and volume increase of ca. 16% and 12%, respectively. The calculated mass and volume changes of the distal chlorite–sericite alteration (ca. 11%, ca. 8%) are lower. The decrease in δ¹⁸O values of the whole rock from around 7.5‰ for the host rocks to 6–7‰ for the distal chlorite–sericite and the proximal biotite–plagioclase alteration and around 5‰ for the inner chlorite-K-feldspar alteration suggests hydrothermal alteration during two-stage deformation and fluid flow.The ductile D₂ deformation in the lower amphibolite facies has provided grain scale porosities by microfracturing. The pervasive, steady-state fluid flow resulted in a disseminated style of gold–sulfide mineralization and a penetrative alteration of the host rocks. Alternating ductile and brittle D₃ deformation during lower to mid greenschist facies conditions followed the fault-valve process. Ductile creep in the shear zones resulted in a low permeability environment leading to fluid pressure build-up. Strongly episodic fluid advection and mass transfer was controlled by repeated seismic fracturing during the formation of laminated quartz(-gold) veins. The limitation of quartz veins to the extent of earlier shear zones indicate the importance of pre-existing anisotropies for fault-valve action and economic gold mineralization.     

大别山碧溪岭石榴橄榄岩—榴辉岩体的原岩性质及同位素年代学的启示

Fluid flow during exhumation of deeply subducted continental crust: zircon U-Pb age and O-isotope studies of a quartz vein within ultrahigh-pressure eclogite

Quartz veins in high‐pressure to ultrahigh‐pressure metamorphic rocks witness channelized fluid flow that transports both mass and heat during collisional orogenesis. This flow can occur in the direction of changing temperature/pressure during subduction or exhumation. SHRIMP U‐Pb dating of zircon from a kyanite‐quartz vein within ultrahigh‐pressure eclogite in the Dabie continental collision orogen yields two age groups at 212 ± 7 and 181 ± 13 Ma, which are similar to two groups of LA‐ICPMS age at 210 ± 4 and 180 ± 5 Ma for the same sample. These ages are significantly younger than zircon U‐Pb ages of 224 ± 2 Ma from the host eclogite. Thus the two age groups from the vein date two episodes of fluid flow involving zircon growth: the first due to decompression dehydration during exhumation, and the second due to heating dehydration in response to a cryptic thermal event after continental collision. Laser fluorination O‐isotope analyses gave similar δ¹⁸O values for minerals from both vein and eclogite, indicating that the vein‐forming fluid was internally derived. Synchronous cooling between the vein and eclogite is suggested by almost the same quartz–mineral fractionation values, with regularly decreasing temperatures that are in concordance with rates of O diffusion in the minerals. While the quartz veining was caused by decompression dehydration at 700–650 °C in a transition from ultrahigh‐pressure to high‐pressure eclogite‐facies retrogression, the postcollisional fluid flow was retriggered by heating dehydration at ～500 °C without corresponding metamorphism. In either case, the kyanite–quartz vein formed later than the peak ultrahigh‐pressure metamorphic event at the Middle Triassic, pointing to focused fluid flow during exhumation rather than subduction. The growth of metamorphic zircon in the eclogite appears to have depended on fluid availability, so that their occurrence is a type of geohygrometer besides geochronological applicability to dating of metamorphic events in orogenic cycles.     

大别-苏鲁高压、超高压变质带榴辉岩和脉体中磷灰石氯含量和流体盐度关系的研究

流体的盐度对含羟基变质矿物组合的稳定温压条件和岩石-流体的相互作用有重要影响.流体的盐度可从矿物中氯含量的角度加以研究.磷灰石是一个含氯矿物,作为副矿物广泛分布在各种岩石中,且能在较宽的温压范围内稳定存在.本文选择大别-苏鲁造山带中典型的高压、超高压岩石开展了磷灰石成分的研究,结合前人流体包裹体的研究结果,探讨了榴辉岩相条件下流体盐度和磷灰石中的氯含量之间的关系.榴辉岩和脉体中磷灰石的XClAp/XOHAp比值与已有的流体包裹体盐度呈很好的线性正相关.榴辉岩和脉体中磷灰石的XClAp/XoHAp比值范围为0.00～0.35时,对应的流体包裹体盐度约为0～40％ NaCleqv.     

超高压岩石中变质脉的研究

超高压岩石中的变质脉体是示踪变质流体活动的重要途径之一。高压-超高压岩石中不仅出露"纯"的石英脉(石英含量>98%),还出露了具有不同复杂矿物组合的"不纯"脉。最近的研究成果表明,对各种类型变质脉的观察和研究有助于深化对大陆碰撞造山带中变质流体/熔体性质以及元素迁移行为的认识。目前主要解决的科学问题包括:(1)确认形成各种类型脉的流体/熔体性质;(2)获得成脉过程中主微量元素(特别是流体不活动性HREE和HFSE)发生迁移的尺度和规模,探讨流体/熔体性质对超高压变质条件下元素地球化学行为的影响;(3)获得各种类型变质脉形成的确切时代。     

中国大陆科学钻探(CCSD)主孔岩芯榴辉岩中的重晶石副矿物研究

中国大陆科学钻探主孔岩芯190～320m榴辉岩中的富锶重晶石作为副矿物存在于超高压变质和退变质阶段,其中大部分的重晶石发现于绿辉石的退变质后成合晶中。具有不同Sr含量的重晶石在榴辉岩中至少具有3种产出状态,形成于3个变质阶段:Ⅰ超高压榴辉岩相阶段,存于石榴石包裹体中,SrSO4含量约在45mol%;Ⅱ早期退变质阶段,存于后成合晶(单斜辉石+钠长石)中,SrSO4含量变化范围很大,在0mol%～21mol%之间;Ⅲ晚期角闪岩相阶段,作为黄铁矿的氧化边存在,SrSO4占2mol%～5mol%。重晶石的形成与流体作用相关,富锶重晶石能反映原赋存流体的Sr/Ba值比较高。重晶石与其伴生矿物尤其硫化物的结构关系对岩体的相对氧化还原环境具有重要指示意义。本文通过榴辉岩中重晶石副矿物学研究,确定了榴辉岩曾经历超高压变质阶段的氧化环境、早期退变质阶段的还原环境和角闪岩相阶段的氧化环境。     

Crustal structure of the southern Dabie ultrahigh-pressure orogen and Yangtze foreland from deep seismic reflection profiling

A new 140‐km‐long seismic reflection profile provides a high‐resolution crustal‐scale image of the southern Dabieshan high‐pressure (HP) metamorphic belt and the Yangtze foreland fold‐and‐thrust belt. The seismic image of the stacked section shows that the southern Dabieshan metamorphic terrane and Yangtze foreland belt are separated by a large north‐dipping fault. In the foreland the upper crust is dominated by a series of folds and thrusts formed during the collisional stage in the mid‐Triassic; it was reworked by crustal extension resulting in the formation of a late Jurassic and Cretaceous red‐bed basin. The southern Dabieshan profile shows stacked crustal slabs developed along the margin of the collisional orogenic belt. The Moho reflectors at 10–11 s (～30–33 km) are seismically prominent and segmented by a number of south‐verging thrusts that were probably developed by foreland‐directed thrusting of the deeply subducted continental crust during exhumation. The seismic reflection profile suggests that structures related to the Triassic–Jurassic subduction and exhumation of the Yangtze plate are preserved despite the severe crustal extension superimposed during the late Mesozoic and Cenozoic.     

Metabasites with eclogite facies relics from Variscides in Sardinia,Italy: a review

Metabasites with eclogite facies relics occur in northern Sardinia as massive to strongly foliated lenses or boudins embedded within low- to medium-grade rocks (Anglona) and migmatites (NE Sardinia). U–Pb zircon dating yielded 453 ± 14, 457 ± 2 and 460 ± 5 Ma as the protolith ages; 400 ± 10 and 403 ± 4 Ma have been interpreted as the ages of the HP event and 352 ± 3 and 327 ± 7 Ma as the ages of the main Variscan retrograde events. A pre-eclogite stage is documented by the occurrence of tschermakite, zoisite relics within garnet porphyroblasts (Punta de li Tulchi) and an edenite–andesine inclusion within a relict kyanite porphyroblast (Golfo Aranci). Four main metamorphic stages have been distinguished in the eclogite evolution: (1) eclogite stage, revealed by the occurrence of armoured omphacite relics within garnet porphyroblasts. The Golfo Aranci eclogites also include kyanite, Mg-rich garnet and pargasite; (2) granulite stage, producing orthopyroxene and clinopyroxene–plagioclase symplectites replacing omphacite. At Golfo Aranci, the symplectitic rims around relict kyanite consist of sapphirine, anorthite, corundum and spinel; (3) amphibolite stage, leading to the formation of amphibole–plagioclase kelyphites between garnet porphyroblasts and pyroxene–plagioclase symplectites and to the growth of cummingtonite on orthopyroxene. Tschermakite to Mg-hornblende, plagioclase, cummingtonite, ilmenite, titanite and biotite are coexisting phases; (4) greenschist to sub-greenschist stage, defined by the appearance of actinolite, chlorite, epidote ss, titanite, sericite and prehnite. The following P–T ranges have been estimated for the different stages. Eclogite stage 550–700°C; 1.3–1.7 GPa; granulite stage 650–900°C; 0.8–1.2 GPa, clustering in the range 1.0–1.2 GPa; amphibolite stage 550–740°C; 0.3–0.7 GPa; greenschist stage 300–400°C; 0.2–0.3 GPa. Comparable ranges characterise the other Variscan massifs in Europe; eclogite stage: T = 530–800°C; P from 0.7–1.1 to 1.7 ± 0.3 GPa; granulite stage T = 760–870°C and P from 1.1–1.4 to 7.2–9.9 GPa, clustering around 1.0–1.2 GPa. Whole-rock chemistry: Sardinian eclogites are N- to T-MORB; European ones N- to E-MORB or calc-alkaline.     

Zr-in-rutile thermometry of eclogite in the Dabie orogen: Constraints on rutile growth during continental subduction-zone metamorphism

The Zr content of rutile was analysed by both EMP and LA-ICPMS for low-T/UHP eclogite and enclosed kyanite–quartz veins in the Dabie orogen, China. Zr-in-rutile temperatures were calculated at different pressures and then compared with temperatures derived from Ti-in-zircon, mineral-reaction, quartz–mineral O-isotope and garnet–clinopyroxene Fe–Mg exchange thermometers. All thermometric data are interpreted within the framework of petrologically and geochronologically constrained P–T–t path. As a consequence, variable Zr-in-rutile temperatures for different occurrences of rutiles are used to indicate their growth in different stages during continental subduction-zone metamorphism. Thus, some rutiles would grow at the peak pressure, whereas other rutiles would either grow before the peak pressure during the subduction or grow at or after the peak temperature during exhumation. The mineral O-isotope and Fe–Mg exchange thermometers also yield variably lower temperatures for the eclogite. The similar results were obtained for mid-T/UHP eclogites in the Dabie-Sulu orogenic belt. This is ascribed to the characteristic P–T–t path of UHP metamorphic rocks, in which metamorphic temperatures at peak pressures are lower than the peak temperatures at decreased pressures during exhumation. Thus, there is a contest between thermodynamics and kinetics during metamorphic reactions in response to P–T changes. Therefore, the reasonable interpretation of thermometric data requires comprehensive understanding of thermometric methodology from physicochemical principles to geological applicabilities.
