Ages of metamorphic and deformational events in the Sierra de Ancasti (Pampean Ranges; Argentina)

Metamorphic rocks of the Sierra de Ancasti (Catamarca province, Northwestern Argentina) were investigated by means of the Rb-Sr-method. Three phases of metamorphism can be distinguished. A first possible homogenization of Sr possibly took place 524 m. y. ago. A second one can be subdivided into a mean metamorphism at 472 m. y. and a statical recrystallization at about 450 m. y. A last weak metamorphism at about 420 m. y. can be recognized only by ages of cooling of biotites. The relations of the metamorphic rocks to granitic intrusions and regional comparisons support this subdivision. Similar ages have been reported from various regions of the Gondwana continent.

Zusammenfassung Metamorphe Gesteine der Sierra de Ancasti (Provinz Catamarca, Nordwest-Argentinien) wurden geochronologisch nach der Rb-Sr-Methode untersucht. Er ergaben sich drei Metamorphose-Phasen. Eine erste Sr-Homogenisierung fand möglicherweise vor 524 Mio. Jahren statt. Eine zweite kann in eine Hauptmetamorphose vor 472 Mio. Jahren und eine statische Rekristallisation vor etwa 450 Mio. Jahren unterteilt werden. Eine letzte, schwache Metamorphose vor etwa 420 Mio. Jahren lÄ\t sich nur an Abkühlungsaltern von Biotiten nachweisen. Die Beziehungen der metamorphen Gesteine zu Granit-Intrusionen sowie regionalgeologische Vergleiche unterstützen diese Einteilung. Ähnliche Alterswerte wurden in verschiedenen Gebieten des Gondwana-Kontinents gefunden.

Resumen Se ha investigado, utilizando el método de Rb-Sr, la geocronologia de rocas metamórficas de la Sierra de Ancasti (Provincia de Catamarca, Noroeste Argentino). Tres fases diferentes de metamorfismo resultaron. Posiblemente hubo una primera homogenización de Sr alrededor de 524 m. a. La segunda fase se divide en un metamorfismo principal en 472 m. y. y una recristalización estática en 450 m. a. El débil metamorfismo en 420 m. a. aproximadamente se nota sólo en edades de enfriamiento de biotitas. Las relaciones entre las rocas metamórficas y magmáticas, y la comparación geológica regional apoyan esta subdivisión.

The Las Chacras-Potrerillos batholith (Pampean Ranges,Argentina): structural evidences,emplacement and timing of the intrusion

Within the southern part of the Sierra Pampeanas (the Sierra de San Luis, Argentina), a series of extensive intrusive bodies are regarded to post-date the Famatinian cycle but were emplaced during the Achalian, a period of heterogeneous deformation along crustal scale fault zones. The largest of those is the Las Chacras-Potrerillos batholith that is situated at the northern end of the transpressive, sinistral Guzmán shear zone. This composite pluton exhibits three sub-domains that comprise two granitoid sub-units each: The southern Potrerillos stock (muscovite-bearing red granite and biotite-bearing red granite) and the central (biotite porphyritic granite and giant porphyritic granite) and northern domain (equigranular granite and porphyritic granite) of the Las Chacras stock. The crystallisation ages of the biotite porphyritic granite is around 381 Ma (U/Pb on zircons and Pb/Pb on sphene), while the host rock was already cooled below 350 °C at 420 Ma. Thermal modelling approaches favour a pulsed intrusion with a duration of 1.5 Ma. The emplacement was followed by rapid cooling below the muscovite cooling temperature. Biotite cooling ages in different sub-units reflect either a long-lasting cooling history of approximately 30 Ma (which is supported by the modelling) or a reheating effect at around 350 Ma. Devonian-age determinations on the fault rocks and granitoids point to a syn-tectonic emplacement of the batholith. The pluton is interpreted to be positioned at the crossover of sinistral shear zones. The origin of this NNE directed extensional setting in a transpressive regime seems to be related to the transfer of displacement along a secondary set of NNW-trending sinistral faults. The final emplacement is due to a subsequent ballooning of the batholith following the direction of space creation. This model is based on the relative timing of the emplacement sequence and macroscopically visible planar fabrics in the field as well as magnetic fabric data. Our results indicate that the emplacement is syn-kinematic with respect to the Achalian deformation event.     

Silica biogeochemical cycle in temperate ecosystems of the Pampean Plain,Argentina

Silicophytoliths were produced in the plant communities of the Pampean Plain during the Quaternary. The biogeochemistry of silicon is scarcely known in continental environments of Argentina. The aim of this work is to present a synthesis of: the plant production and the presence of silicophytoliths in soils with grasses, and its relationship with silica content in soil solution, soil matrix and groundwaters in temperate ecosystems of the Pampean Plain, Argentina. We quantified the content of silicophytoliths in representative grasses and soils of the area. Mineralochemical determinations of the soils' matrix were made. The concentration of silica was determined in soil solution and groundwaters. The silicophytoliths assemblages in plants let to differenciate subfamilies within Poaceae. In soils, silicophytoliths represent 40–5% of the total components, conforming a stock of 59–72 × 10³ kg/ha in A horizons. The concentration of SiO₂ in soil solution increases with depth (453–1243 μmol/L) in relation with plant communities, their nutritional requirements and root development. The average concentration of silica in groundwaters is 840 umol/L. In the studied soils, inorganic minerals and volcanic shards show no features of weathering. About 10–40% of silicophytoliths were taxonomically unidentified because of their weathering degrees. The matrix of the aggregates is made up by microaggregates composed of carbon and silicon. The weathering of silicophytoliths is a process that contributes to the formation of amorphous silica-rich matrix of the aggregates. So, silicophytoliths could play an important role in the silica cycle being a sink and source of Si in soils and enriching soil solutions and groundwaters.     

Trace element geochemistry and genesis of the Pindos ophiolite suite

Abundances of major elements, rare earth elements, transition metals, alkali metals and alkaline earth metals have been measured in a representative suite of samples from the Pindos (Greece) ophiolitic complex. Our data indicate that the igneous members of the complex are genetically related. An ocean floor origin of the complex is suggested.     

Ductile Thrusting—shearing Genesis of Hongzhen Granitoid ,Anhui Province

As view from the petrological, mineralogical and petrochemical studies, the Hongzhen granitoid is characterized by the autochthonous-parautochthonous transformation. The source rocks are mainly felsic clastic sediments with a small amount of intermediate magmatite in the Zhangbaling Group. The granitoid is covered by mylonite and migmatite, and the three rocks share much in common with respect to their REE distribution patterns and the W-type distribution of transition elements, indicating that they all came from identical source rocks. The granitoid belongs to collision granites or postorogenic granitoids resulting from ductile thrusting-shearing under 550 °C and 7 × 10⁸ Pa conditions in the foreland of the Yangtze plate during the Late Indosinian movement, and from metasomatism plus partial melting. This project was partly funded by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (DO406-49274200).     

Trace element chemistry of major rivers in Orissa State, India

 Geochemical analyses of surface waters from rivers flowing through Orissa State, India, indicated that trace element concentrations were extremely variable and consistently higher than world river average. The Brahmani River was the most solute-rich river studied, followed by the Baitarani and Mahanadi Rivers. Although all three rivers drain similar geology, the Brahmani River catchment is heavily industrialized, and water samples collected upstream and downstream from industries indicated that anthropogenic activity directly influenced its chemical composition. Samples collected from several towns, in all three river systems, did not invariably show similar patterns, with various elements having higher dissolved concentrations upstream. Because the concentration of total solids increased downstream, this implied that some components of the sewage had effectively sequestered available elements from solution and converted them to particulate material. Although the impact of pollution is clearly recognizable in water samples collected in proximity to the anthropogenic source, there are only slight elemental accumulations in the lower reaches of the Mahanadi River, with no accumulation in the Brahmani River. Apparently for these large rivers, discharged effluent becomes rapidly diluted, while complexation and sedimentation further removes trace elements from the water column. However, in the less voluminous Baitarani River, elementar enrichment near the river's mouth suggests that in this secondary river, where dilution effects are less, the concerns over regional water quality may be more prevalent.

Trace element geochemistry and genesis of the copper ore deposits of the Singhbhum shear zone,Eastern India

The genesis of the copper ore deposits of the Singhbhum shear zone, India, has been worked out through a detailed geochemical examination of the ores and the country rocks. Following different techniques of atomic absorption, the abundances of Cu, Co, Ni, Pb, Zn, Cd, Ag, Mn and Hg were determined and the trace element characteristics of the principal rock units in and outside the shear zone have been compiled and critically evaluated. The data suggest that the ore deposits are the result of a sequence of long-continued and over-lapping geological processes culminating in intense shearing, syntectonic granitization and considerable mobilization of the ore elements. The Precambrian metasedimentary and metavolcanic rocks of the shear zone, as well as those enclosing it, served as the source, while diffusion of the ore constituents and their precipitation in physicochemically favourable structural traps, formed in response to shearing, resulted in the formation of the deposits.

Zusammenfassung Als Beitrag zur Klärung der Genese der Kupferlagerstätten in der Singhbhum Shear Zone, Indien, wurden geochemische Untersuchungen an Erzen und Nebengestein durchgeführt. Spurengehalte von Cu, Co, Ni, Pb, Zn, Cd, Ag, Mn, Hg wurden mit Hilfe der AAS bestimmt, ihre Verteilung innerhalb der Zone und der angrenzenden Gesteinstypen wird diskutiert. Auf Grund der vorliegenden geochemischen Daten wird folgende Deutung zur Entstehung der Erzlagerstätten gegeben: Die Bildung der Singhbhum-Erzvorkommen ist das Ergebnis einer Folge langandauernder und sich überschneidender geologischer Prozesse, wie intensiver Scherung, syntektonischer Granitisation und damit verbundener Mobilisierung der oben genannten Elemente. Die präkambrischen Metasedimente und Metavulkanite innerhalb der Scherzone und ihrer näheren Umgebung sind als Muttergesteine der erzbildenden Elemente anzusehen. Die Bildung der Lagerstätte ist das Resultat der Diffusion von Lösungen und ihres Absatzes in physikalisch-chemisch günstigen Struktur-Fallen, gebildet im Anschluß an die Scherung.

     

Role of trace element partition coefficients in models of andesite genesis

Orogenic andesite magmas probably evolve at 1100 to 900°C, have between 1 and 5 wt. % H₂O and f_O2 above the NiNiO buffer during phenocryst precipitation and may be saturated with a second fluid phase prior to eruption. Consequently, many solid/liquid trace element partition coefficients appropriate to andesites are higher than for basalts, perhaps due to the presence of fewer octahedrally coordinated sites in andesite liquids as well as to lower temperatures.Simple quantitative interpretation of trace element concentration data for orogenic andesites in general or for most specific suites is not possible using available partition coefficients. Fractional crystallization models involving magnetite or amphibole or both seem less at odds with available data than do models invoking equilibration with subducted oceanic crust or overlying peridotite. Critical choices between simple models, or identification of supplementary or more complex processes, require a more rigorous data base than presently available.     

Geochemistry and genesis of granitoid rocks from Southern Sri Lanka

Summary Pyroxene granulites of intermediate to felsic composition comprise a major part of the Precambrian terrain exposed in southern Sri Lanka. Chemical characteristics and field relations reveal that there are two closely associated groups of granitoids both occurring as discrete layers or deformed bodies. Granitic-adamellitic rocks are more common and can be distinguished from tonalitic-trondhjemitic rocks. Granitoids of these two groups and minor metabasalt and metadiorite/meta-andesite have been subjected to high-grade metamorphism and were mapped as charnockite or charnockitic rocks. Rocks of granitic composition are mostly meta-aluminous and, in the AFM diagram, fall in the tholeiitic field. These rocks are mainly A-type granites characterized by high K₂O/Na₂O, FeO/MgO and high Zr, Nb and LREE contents, most belonging to the relatively Ce- and Y-enriched A₂-type. Tonalitic rocks are meta-aluminous to per-aluminous and display a calc-alkaline trend. These rocks are classified as I-type, although some of them have very low K₂O and REE contents.Tonalites and granites are not products of a consanguineous fractionation process. In spite of their close field association, they appear to be polygenetic. The parent magmas of the A-type granites seem to have been differentiated melts derived from felsic continental crust. They were emplaced into normal or attenuated continental crust in a non-Compressive (extensional or trans-tensional) tectonic regime. Tonalites most probably represent volcanic arc granitoids emplaced in a compressive tectonic setting. Present intercalation of these polygenetic granitoids, generated in different tectonic environments, is a result of the complex tectonic activity which prevailed before or during Pali-African (550–610 Ma) granulite facies metamorphism.

Geochemie und Genese von Granitoiden aus dem süchen Sri Lanka

Zusammenfassung Pyroxengranulite intermediärer bis saurer Zusammensetzung bilden einen Hauptbe standteil des präkambrischen Terrains im südlichen Sri Lanka. Chemische Untersuchungen und Feldbeziehungen ermöglichen die Unterscheidung von zwei räumlich eng assoziierten Gruppen von Granitoiden, die beide lagenförmig oder in Form deformierter Körper auftreten. Granitisch-adamellitische Gesteine sind häufiger und sind von tonalitisch-tronhjemitischen Gesteinen zu unterscheiden. Diese Granitoide und untergeordnet vorkommende Metabasalte und Metadiorite/Metaandesite wurden von hochgradiger Metamorphose erfaßt und als Charnockite bzw. charnokitische Gesteine kartiert. Gesteine granitischer Zusammensetzung sind meist metaluminös und fallen im AFM Diagramm ins Feld der Tholeiite. Es sind A-Typ Granite des an Ce und Y angereicherten A2-Subtyps mit hohem K₂O/Na₂O, FeO/MgO und hohen Gehalten an Zr, Nb und LREE. Tonalitische Gesteine sind met-bis peraluminös und folgen einem kalk-alkalischen Trend. Sie werden als I-Typ Granite klassifiziert, obwohl einige Proben sehr niedrige K₂O und REE Gehalte aufweisen. Die Tonalite und Granite sind nicht die Produkte eines cogenetischen Fraktionie rungsprozesses und sind, trotz ihrer räumlichen Assoziation, polygenetischen Ursprungs. Die Ausgangsmagmen der A-Typ Granite scheinen differentierte Schmelzen saurer krustaler Herkunft zu sein, die in normal dicker oder verdünnter Kruste in einem nicht kompressionellen tektonischen Regime (ex- oder transtensional) intrudierten. Die Tonalite sind wahrscheinlich in einem Kompressionsregime enstandene Granitoide eines Vulkanbogens. Das heutige Nebeneinander dieser polygnetischen, in unterschiedlichen geotektonischen Bereichen gebildeten, Granitoide ist das Ergebnis komplexer tektonischer Aktivität vor oder während der panafrikanischen (550–610 Ma) granulitfaziellen Metamorphose.

Trace element constraints on pegmatite genesis: Tin Mountain pegmatite,Black Hills,South Dakota

The Tin Mountain pegmatite is a small, zoned granitic body that is extremely enriched in Rb and Li, but has moderate concentrations of Sr and Ba. These trace elements are modelled using granitic distribution coefficients in order to test the potentials of partial melting of metasedimentary rocks and fractionation of a less-evolved granitic melt to have produced the parental liquid to the Tin Mountain pegmatite. Batch melting of any reasonable metasedimentary source rock would likely have yielded melts that were either insufficiently enriched in Rb and Li to be the parental liquid, or that had Sr and Ba concentrations that were much higher than those estimated for the parental liquid. The modelling of simple fractional crystallization and equilibrium crystallization of a granitic melt within the compositional range of the spatially associated Harney Peak Granite gives calculated melt compositions with either lower Sr and Ba concentrations or inadequate Rb and Li enrichments, to be the parent liquid of the pegmatite. At least two variants from simple crystal-liquid fractionation models can, however, successfully account for the derivation of the parent liquid: 1) generation of a Rb-, Li-, Ba- and Sr-rich granitic melt (outside of the compositional range of the sampled portions of the Harney Peak Granite complex) by low degrees of partial melting of metasedimentary rocks found in the Black Hills, followed by moderate extents of fractional or equilibrium crystallization, 2) derivation from Harney Peak granite via a complex, multi-stage crystal-liquid fractionation process, such as progressive equilibrium crystallization.     

延边杨金沟大型钨矿床白钨矿的微量和稀土元素地球化学特征与矿床成因

为确定杨金沟大型钨矿的成矿物质来源,本文运用白钨矿单矿物的微量元素、稀土元素特征加以示踪。ICP-AES测定结果显示:白钨矿亏损Mo、B i、Sn、Nb、Ta等,具有很低的Rb/Sr、Nb/Ta和Zr/H f值,指示其成矿物质具有壳源特征,而并非主要来自深源岩浆的结晶分异作用;不同白钨矿样品的REE组成基本一致,Eu元素出现明显的正Eu异常(δEu 2.21~4.43),基本未见Ce元素异常(δCe为0.92~1.08),表明白钨矿与流体之间稀土元素发生了强烈分异;白钨矿与赋矿围岩的REE球粒陨石标准化配分曲线形态相似,进一步显示五道沟群浅变质岩对杨金沟钨矿成矿物质的贡献。综合分析认为,杨金沟钨矿的成矿流体为源自上地幔的富含CO2的中高温流体,沿构造上升并与五道沟群浅变质岩发生交代作用引起黑云母等含钾矿物分解产生N2,最终形成富含W等成矿物质的NaC l-H2O-CO2-N2流体体系。随着构造减压作用,CO2不断逸出,破坏了矿液内物理化学体系的平衡,导致WO42-与Ca2+在适当物理化学条件下形成白钨矿。     

Genesis of pedons with discontinuous argillic horizons in the Holocene loess mantle of the southern Pampean landscape,Argentina

Soil development in the plain landscape of the southern Argentinean Pampa is related to pulses of aeolian accretion of calcareous loess during the Holocene epoch. Such plain relief is associated with landform stability that favors pedogenesis. In some sectors of the Holocene loess mantle, detailed soil surveys show a great variability of soil morphology in short distances (<7 m), such that pedons with Bt horizon (Ap-Bt-C-2Ckm) coexist with pedons with an AC horizon (Ap-AC-C-2Ckm) in a plain landscape, within identical loess parent material over a tosca layer (2Ckm-calcrete-petrocalcic horizon), and in a similar pedoclimate. This article studies the origin of this spatial variation. Loess parent materials directly overlie the relic tosca layer, exhumed after erosion of preexisting soils of the Late Pleistocene. The contrast in soil morphology between the petrocalcic horizon and the overlying Holocene soils reflects the effect of polygenesis. The complex soil spatial distribution pattern over the tosca layer appears unrelated to its paleomicrotopography, because soils with Bt horizons are identified in positive and depressed microlandforms of the tosca. The absence of Bt horizons might be caused by formerly intense biological activity related to a stable pattern of two natural vegetation covers or a surface paleomicrotopography that supported distinct vegetation types depending on the soil moisture in each paleomicrolandform.     

Trace element distribution,Co:Ni ratios and genesis of the big cadia iron-copper deposit,new south wales,australia

Analyses of pyrite, chalcopyrite and magnetite from the volcanic-hosted Big Cadia stratabound iron-copper deposit in Central Western New South Wales show considerable variation in the minor elements Mn, Ba, Ag, Pb, Zn, Cd, Se, Co and Ni. The preferential concentration of Co and Cd in pyrite, Zn and Ag in chalcopyrite and Mn in magnetite can be attributed to variations in activities of the ions in the hydrothermal fluid at the time of crystallisation of the mineral phases, or in cases such as the concentration of Co in pyrite, dependent on compatible electronic spin states between Co²⁺ and Fe²⁺. Trace element concentrations, especially Co and Ni contents and Co:Ni ratios in pyrite (average Co:Ni ratio=17.1) support a volcanic exhalative origin of mineralisation at Big Cadia. Differences in trace element composition such as higher Ni contents in pyrite in contrast with other volcanic-hosted ores may reflect the more basic character of volcanic rocks underlying the Big Cadia deposit.     

Trace element abundances in megacrysts and their host basalts: Constraints on partition coefficients and megacryst genesis

In an effort to obtain information about mineral/melt trace element partitioning during the high pressure petrogenesis of basic rocks, we determined rare earth and other trace element abundances in megacrysts of clinopyroxene, orthopyroxene, amphibole, mica, anorthoclase, apatite and zircon, and in their host basalts. In general, the ranges of mineral/melt partition coefficients established from experimental partitioning studies and phenocryst/matrix measurements overlap with the ranges of megacryst/host abundance ratios. Our data for Hf, Sc, Ta and Th partitioning represent some of the only estimates available. Consideration of phase equilibria, major element partitioning and isotopic ratios indicate that most of the pyroxene and amphibole megacrysts may have been in equilibrium with their host magmas at high pressures (mostly 10–25 kb). In contrast, it is unlikely that mica, anorthoclase, apatite and zircon megacrysts formed in equilibrium with their host basalts; instead, we conclude that they were precipitated from more evolved magmas and have been mixed into their present host magmas. Consequently, the trace element abundance ratios for megacryst/host should not be interpreted as partition coefficients, but only as guides for understanding trace element partitioning during high pressure petrogenesis. With this caveat, we conclude that the megacryst/ host trace element abundance data indicate that mineral/melt partition coefficients in basaltic systems during high pressure fractionation are not drastically different from partition coefficients valid for low pressure fractionation.

江西永平Cu-W矿床白钨矿地球化学特征及其对矿床成因的指示

江西永平Cu-W矿床是钦杭成矿带东部一个大型Cu-W矿床。针对该矿床的成因,一直存在着海底喷流沉积型与矽卡岩型矿床的争论。文章针对该争论,通过对永平Cu-W矿床的白钨矿开展微量元素分析,研究了成矿流体性质、来源和矿床成因。永平Cu-W矿床发育3种类型白钨矿:退化蚀变阶段暗色均质白钨矿Ⅰ-1;亮色均质白钨矿Ⅰ-2;石英-硫化物阶段具有环带结构的白钨矿Ⅱ。白钨矿中Mo含量和Eu异常能够指示成矿流体氧化还原性。白钨矿Ⅰ-1富集Mo元素,并呈负Eu异常,指示氧化性;白钨矿Ⅰ-2和白钨矿Ⅱ中Mo含量减少,并且呈正Eu异常,指示成矿流体的氧逸度降低。永平Cu-W矿床所有白钨矿均呈明显的轻稀土元素富集模式,与典型矽卡岩型白钨矿稀土元素特征相一致,而明显不同于石英脉型矿床白钨矿中稀土元素或重稀土元素富集模式。白钨矿具有高Mo和低Sr元素,与岩浆-热液白钨矿特征一致,而明显不同于变质来源的白钨矿,指示成矿流体来源于岩浆。白钨矿的Y/Ho比值范围为19～43,与似斑状黑云母花岗岩(Y/Ho=25～30)相似,明显不同于石炭系叶家湾组(Y/Ho=34～75),指示成矿流体主要来源于岩浆。白钨矿地球化学特征指示永平Cu-W矿床为矽卡岩型矿床。
