岩浆混合作用的研究对揭示壳幔相互作用,探讨成岩成矿过程具有重要意义。甲玛矿区位于冈底斯成矿带东段,为超大型斑岩-矽卡岩型铜多金属矿床,矿区内的中酸性岩浆岩中普遍发育暗色包体,对其中的暗色包体中的闪长质包体开展详细的岩相学、岩石地球化学、Hf同位素地球化学及U-Pb同位素地质年代学等方面研究以期查明岩石成因,为岩浆混合作用和成矿作出启示,完善甲玛成岩成矿模型。岩相学观察表明,闪长质包体及寄主岩浆岩中存在多种反映岩浆混合作用的典型组构,如长石-石英熔蚀结构、石英镶边结构、长石交代筛状结构、长石反环带结构、磷灰石针柱状结构等,锆石LA-ICP-MS UPb同位素定年结果显示,包体形成时代(15. 3±0. 3Ma)与中酸性寄主岩石在误差范围内一致,也符合了岩浆混合作用的存在。闪长质包体化学成分上类似高Mg埃达克岩(MgO=3. 53%～6. 62%,Sr/Y=20～57,(La/Yb)N=51～64),具有低SiO_2(52. 44%～59. 45%),高K_2O(3. 19%～5. 62%),高相容元素(Ni=86×10~(-6)～146×10~(-6); Cr=102×10~(-6)～228×10~(-6))的特征,∑REE高于中酸性寄主岩浆岩,且轻重稀土分异明显((LREE/HREE)N=21～23),富集LILE(Rb=189×10~(-6)～284×10~(-6),Sr=498×10~(-6)～658×10~(-6),Ba=1247×10~(-6)～1378×10~(-6)),相对亏损HFSE(Nb、Ta、Ti),在稀土元素配分图及微量元素蛛网图中闪长质包体介于冈底斯带碰撞后时期的超钾镁铁质岩(来源于富集的岩石圈地幔)与甲玛中酸性寄主岩浆岩(主要来源于加厚新生下地壳)之间,Hf同位素(ε_(Hf)(t)=-0. 9～4. 6)同样也介于超钾镁铁质岩与花岗闪长斑岩(代表中酸性寄主岩浆)之间。这些特征说明闪长质包体是富集的岩石圈地幔部分熔融形成的镁铁质岩浆与加厚新生下地壳部分熔融形成的中酸性岩浆发生混合的产物,同时指示了东冈底斯带中新世时期也存在岩石圈地幔伸展对流减薄事件,以及证实了南拉萨地体广泛分布的高钾埃达克质岩在形成过程中,伴随着与富集岩石圈地幔来源的超钾镁铁质岩浆发生不同程度混合。此外,富集的岩石圈地幔部分熔融形成的镁铁质岩浆的混入,将会为中酸性岩浆系统加入大量的水和金属物质,这也是控制甲玛超大型斑岩-矽卡岩型矿床形成的关键因素。     

Mafic magmatic enclaves and mafic rocks associated with some granitoids of the central Sierra Nevada batholith, California: nature, origin, and relations with the hosts

The calc-alkaline granitoids of the central Sierra Nevada batholith are associated with abundant mafic rocks. These include both country-rock xenoliths and mafic magmatic enclaves (MME) that commonly have fine-grained and, less commonly, cumulate textures. Scarce composite enclaves consist of either xenoliths enclosed in MME, or of MME enclosed in other MME with different grain size and texture. Enclaves are often enclosed in mafic aggregates and form meter-size polygenic swarms, mostly in the margins of normally zoned plutons. Enclaves may locally divert schlieren layering. Mafic dikes, which also occur in swarms, are undisturbed, composite, or largely hybridized. In central Sierra Nevada, with the exception of xenoliths that completely differ from the other rocks, host granitoids, mafic aggregates, MME, and some composite dikes exhibit a bulk compositional diversity and, at the same time, important mineralogical and geochemical (including isotopic) similarities. MME and host granitoids display distinct major and trace element compositions. However, strong correlations between MME–host granitoid pairs indicate interactions and parallel evolution of MME and enclosing granitoid in each pluton. Identical mafic mineral compositions and isotopic features are the result of these interactions and parallel evolution. Mafic dikes have broadly the same major and trace element compositions as the MME although variations are large between the different dikes that are at distinctly different stages of hybridization and digestion by the host granitoids. The composition of the granitoids and various mafic rocks reflects three distinct stages of hybridization that occurred, respectively, at depth, during ascent and emplacement, and after emplacement. The occurrence and succession of hybridization processes were tightly controlled by the physical properties of the magmas. The sequential thorough or partial mixing and mingling were commonly followed by differentiation and segregation processes. Unusual MME that contain abundant large crystals of hornblende resulted from disruption of early cumulates at depth, whereas those richer in large crystals of biotite were formed by disruption of late mafic aggregates or schlieren layerings at the level of emplacement. MME and host granitoids are considered cogenetic, because both are hybrid rocks that were produced by the mixing of the same two components in different proportions. The felsic component was produced by partial melting of preexisting crustal materials, whereas the dominant mafic component was probably derived from the upper mantle. However, in the lack of a clear mantle signature, the origin of the mafic component remains questionable.     

Mineralogy, whole-rock and Sr-Nd isotope geochemistry of mafic microgranular enclaves in Cretaceous Dagbasi granitoids, Eastern Pontides, NE Turkey: Evidence of magma mixing, mingling and chemical equilibration

Rocks of the Late Cretaceous Dagbasi Pluton (88-83 Ma), located in the eastern Pontides, include mafic microgranular enclaves (MMEs) ranging from a few centimetres to metres in size, and from ellipsoidal to ovoid in shape. The MMEs are composed of gabbroic diorite, diorite and tonalite, whereas the felsic host rocks comprise mainly tonalite, granodiorite and monzogranite based on both mineralogical and chemical compositions. MMEs are characterized by a fine-grained, equigranular and hypidiomorphic texture. The common texture of felsic host rocks is equigranular and also reveals some special types of microscopic textures, e.g., oscillatory-zoned plagioclase, poikilitic K-feldspar, small lath-shaped plagioclase in large plagioclase, blade-shaped biotite, acicular apatite, spike zones in plagioclase and spongy-cellular plagioclase textures and rounded plagioclase megacrysts in MMEs. Compositions of plagioclases (An₃₃-An₆₀), hornblendes (Mg#=0.77-1.0) and biotites (Mg#=0.61-0.63) of MMEs are slightly distinct or similar to those of host rocks (An_12-57; hbl Mg#=0.63-1.0; Bi Mg#=0.50-0.69), which suggest partial to complete equilibration during mafic-felsic magma interactions.The felsic host rocks have SiO₂ between 60 and 76 wt% and display low to slightly medium-K tholeiitic to calc-alkaline and peraluminous to slightly metaluminous characteristics. Chondrite-normalized rare-earth element (REE) patterns are fractionated (La_cn/Lu_cn=1.5-7.3) with pronounced negative Eu anomalies (Eu/Eu*=0.46-1.1). Initial ε_Nd(i) values vary between −3.1 and 1.6, initial ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr values between 0.7056 and 0.7067.Compared with the host rocks, the MMEs are characterized by relatively high Mg-number of 22-52, low contents of SiO₂ (53-63 wt%), low ASI (0.7-1.1) and low to medium-K tholeiitic to calc-alkaline, metaluminous to peraluminous composition. Chondrite-normalized REE patterns are relatively flat [(La/Yb)_cn=1.4-3.9; (Tb/Yb)_cn=0.9-1.5] and show small negative Eu anomalies (Eu/Eu*=0.63-1.01). Isotope signatures of these rocks (⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr_(i)=0.7054-0.7055; ε_Nd(i)=-1.0 to 1.9) are largely similar to the host rocks. Gabbroic diorite enclaves have relatively low contents of SiO₂, ASI; high Mg#, CaO, Al₂O₃, TiO₂, P₂O₅, Sr and Nb concentrations compared to dioritic and tonalitic enclaves.The geochemical and isotopic similarities between the MMEs and their host rocks indicate that the enclaves are of mixed origin and are most probably formed by the interaction between the lower crust- and mantle-derived magmas. All the geochemical data suggest that a basic magma derived from an enriched subcontinental lithospheric mantle, interacted with a crustal melt that originated from dehydration melting of the mafic lower crust at deep crustal levels. The existence of compositional and textural disequilibrium and the nature of chemical and isotopic variation in these rock types indicate that magma mixing/mingling between an evolved mafic and a granitic magma was involved in their genesis. Microgranular enclaves are thus interpreted to be globules of a more mafic magma probably from an enriched lithospheric mantle source. Al-in-amphibole estimates the pluton emplacement at ca. 0.3-3.8 kbar, and therefore, magma mixing and mingling must have occurred at 3.8 kbar or below this level.     

班公湖-怒江缝合带西段阿翁错复式岩体的岩浆混合成因:地球化学、年代学和暗色微粒包体证据

Petro Gram: An excel-based petrology program for modeling of magmatic processes

Petro Gram is an Excel?based magmatic petrology program that generates numerical and graphical models.Petro Gram can model the magmatic processes such as melting,crystallization,assimilation and magma mixing based on the trace element and isotopic data.The program can produce both inverse and forward geochemical models for melting processes(e.g.forward model for batch,fractional and dynamic melting,and inverse model for batch and dynamic melting).However,the program uses a forward modeling approach for magma differentiation processes such as crystallization(EC:Equilibruim Crystallization,FC:Fractional Crystallization,IFC:Imperfect Fractional Crystallization and In-situ Crystallization),assimilation(AFC:Assimilation Fractional Crystallization,Decoupled FC-A:Decoupled Fractional Crystallization and Assimillation,A-IFC:Assimilation and Imperfect Fractional Crystallization)and magma mixing.One of the most important advantages of the program is that the melt composition obtained from any partial melting model can be used as a starting composition of the crystallization,assimilation and magma mixing.In addition,Petro Gram is able to carry out the classification,tectonic setting,multi-element(spider)and isotope correlation diagrams,and basic calculations including Mg^#,Eu/Eu^*,εSrandεNdwidely used in magmatic petrology.     

Field evidence,mineral chemical and geochemical constraints on mafic-felsic magma interactions in a vertically zoned magma chamber from the Chotanagpur Granite Gneiss Complex of Eastern India

The Nimchak granite pluton (NGP) of Chotanagpur Granite Gneiss Complex (CGGC), Eastern India, provides ample evidence of magma interaction in a plutonic regime for the first time in this part of the Indian shield. A number of outcrop level magmatic structures reported from many mafic-felsic mixing and mingling zones worldwide, such as synplutonic dykes, mafic magmatic enclaves and hybrid rocks extensively occur in our study domain. From field observations it appears that the Nimchak pluton was a vertically zoned magma chamber that was intruded by a number of mafic dykes during the whole crystallization history of the magma chamber leading to magma mixing and mingling scenario. The lower part of the pluton is occupied by coarse-grained granodiorite (64.84–66.61?wt.% SiO₂), while the upper part is occupied by fine-grained granite (69.80–70.57?wt.% SiO₂). Field relationships along with textural and geochemical signatures of the pluton suggest that it is a well-exposed felsic magma chamber that was zoned due to fractional crystallization. The intruding mafic magma interacted differently with the upper and lower granitoids. The lower granodiorite is characterized by mafic feeder dykes and larger mafic magmatic enclaves, whereas the enclaves occurring in the upper granite are comparatively smaller and the feeder dykes could not be traced here, except two late-stage mafic dykes. The mafic enclaves occurring in the upper granite show higher degrees of hybridization with respect to those occurring in the lower granite. Furthermore, enclaves are widely distributed in the upper granite, whereas enclaves in the lower granite occur adjacent to the main feeder dykes.Geochemical signatures confirm that the intermediate rocks occurring in the Nimchak pluton are mixing products formed due to the mixing of mafic and felsic magmas. A number of important physical properties of magmas like temperature, viscosity, glass transition temperature and fragility have been used in magma mixing models to evaluate the process of magma mixing. A geodynamic model of pluton construction and evolution is presented that shows episodic replenishments of mafic magma into the crystallizing felsic magma chamber from below. Data are consistent with a model whereby mafic magma ponded at the crust-mantle boundary and melted the overlying crust to form felsic (granitic) magma. The mafic magma episodically rose, injected and interacted with an overlying felsic magma chamber that was undergoing fractional crystallization forming hybrid intermediate rocks. The intrusion of mafic magma continued after complete solidification of the magma chamber as indicated by the presence of two late-stage mafic dykes.     

松潘—甘孜造山带万里城花岗岩及其岩浆包体的成因与地球动力学意义

松潘—甘孜造山带广泛分布着三叠纪花岗岩体,其成因对正确认识研究区花岗岩浆的动力学背景具有重要意义。地球化学分析表明,万里城岩体寄主花岗岩具有高的SiO2含量（69.43%~73.10%）和较高的全碱含量,具弱过铝质（A/CNK=1.01~1.12）特征,属于高钾钙碱性—钾玄岩系列I型花岗岩类。暗色微粒包体具较低的SiO2含量（52.85%~59.50%）和较高的Mg#值（45~63）,为准铝质高钾钙碱性二长（闪长）岩。包体为典型的岩浆细粒结构,发育针状磷灰石、环带结构斜长石、瞳状石英、反鲍文序列的不平衡岩浆结构等。微量与稀土元素分析表明,包体起源于壳幔混合作用,是底侵的幔源玄武质岩浆与上覆壳源长英质岩浆混合的产物,混合的熔体经历了钛铁矿、黑云母等矿物的分离结晶,最终形成万里城暗色微粒包体。而寄主花岗岩则起源于纯的长英质陆壳,岩石具有较低的Mg#值(21~39)、中等的CaO/(MgO+TFeO)值、较高的K2O/Na2O和(Na2O+K2O)/(TFeO+MgO+TiO2)值等,指示源区主要为变杂砂岩类。综合区域地质资料,提出松潘—甘孜造山带内大规模花岗质岩体的形成主要受控于碰撞后伸展背景下的玄武质岩浆底侵加热。

大同新生代火山岩浆的快速喷发——来自橄榄石地幔捕掳晶的证据

量化研究幔源岩浆从源区运移至喷发或者侵位的时间尺度，对理解基性岩浆作用具有重要意义。然而，对于岩浆的喷发和就位的时间尺度研究仍缺乏有效的约束，位于我国华北克拉通北部山西大同新生代火山岩群是理想的研究地区。本文以该火山群～0.2 Ma喷发的神泉寺碱性玄武岩为研究对象，重点研究其中携带的地幔橄榄石捕掳晶来约束喷发前的时间尺度。通过对其开展详细的矿物化学研究，发现地幔捕掳晶核部的Fo值高达97.7,为极富镁橄榄石，结合其极低的Ca、Mn和Ni含量特征，认为它们捕获自被交代的地幔橄榄岩。另外，地幔橄榄石捕掳晶发育明显的CaO成分环带，表明其在地壳岩浆系统内经历了复杂的岩浆演化过程。地幔橄榄石捕掳晶反应边宽度变化很大，说明它们在源区被捕获时及在运移过程中经过了多次破碎过程。橄榄石捕掳晶最边缘的Fo值为70左右，平衡计算表明它们在边部已与主岩浆(碱性玄武岩)达到平衡。Fe-Mg元素扩散计时结果显示，橄榄石地幔捕掳晶仅在岩浆中滞留了几个月的时间。对于40～70 km的岩石圈地幔厚度来说，岩浆平均上升速率最快可能超过500 m/d。

花岗质岩浆作用及后期演化过程：来自矿物原位微区成分与同位素组成的制约

花岗岩作为大陆地壳的重要组成部分, 其岩浆作用过程一直是地学领域研究的热点。传统上利用全岩地球化学和同位素数据来示踪花岗岩成因和演化过程的方法已不够准确, 为此, 本文系统总结了近年来报导的花岗岩中单矿物的原位微区成分——这些数据记录了全岩数据无法识别的单矿物颗粒内部和不同矿物颗粒之间元素和同位素组成的变异特征, 明显提高了对花岗质岩浆作用及后期演化过程的认识。首先, 矿物原位微区成分对花岗质岩浆的源区性质和混合过程具有指示意义。花岗岩中岩浆锆石Hf同位素组成的变异可能暗示其源区在深熔作用过程中发生了锆石的不平衡和选择性熔融, 而未必是壳幔混合作用的结果, 这是对"锆石效应"概念新的扩展; 同一花岗岩样品中分选出的磷灰石颗粒可以具有完全不同的稀土元素配分模式、Eu异常、Sr含量和Sr-Nd同位素组成等, 表明它们中的部分颗粒是岩浆形成和上升过程中从围岩捕获的, 是小规模地壳混染作用的产物; 榍石的微区成分分带记录了多种岩浆混合过程, 也反映了熔体成分、氧逸度和温度等因素的变化; 花岗岩与其中发育的包体、捕虏体和相关围岩的锆石Hf-O同位素和磷灰石Sr-Nd同位素组成可以记录上述岩石在形成过程中经历岩浆混合和同化混染等作用。其次, 矿物原位微区成分可以反映花岗质岩浆的分离结晶过程。岩浆成因磷灰石不同的稀土元素配分模式可能指示它们受到了其他矿物分离结晶作用的影响, 如帘石族、榍石、角闪石、斜长石等; 花岗伟晶岩系统中岩浆成因独居石Sm/Nd值在不同岩带中的规律性变化揭示了岩浆分离结晶程度的差异; 榍石的多种微区元素含量和它们之间的协变关系受控于花岗质岩浆的结晶分异过程和氧化还原状态; 岩浆成因绿帘石族矿物的震荡环带表明在绿帘石结晶的晚期阶段花岗质岩浆中的Fe3+含量降低, 且结晶过程中褐帘石和绿帘石并不能形成完全连续的固溶体, 因此晚期结晶的绿帘石环边与褐帘石核具有成分间断; 根据角闪石的电子探针数据可以计算得到花岗质岩浆结晶时的温度、压力和fO2, 并据此推断出岩浆起源的深度。此外, 矿物原位微区成分可以记录花岗质岩石晚期经历的构造热事件和矿化作用过程。经历晚期变质/交代作用改造的花岗岩中的磷灰石具有低的轻稀土元素含量和变化很大的Nd同位素组成, 导致花岗岩具有Nd-Hf位素体系解耦的特点; 晚期变质/交代作用同样会改变磷灰石和榍石的δ18O值, 造成各副矿物之间δ18O值相互解耦的现象; 蚀变独居石的元素和U-Th-Pb同位素体系指示流体交代过程中多种置换反应的发生以及普通Pb混染和Pb丢失的过程; 热液成因绿帘石族矿物的成分环带表明氧化环境下热液流体成分会不断演化, 根据矿物-流体平衡模型, 可以利用绿帘石成分计算出成矿作用发生的温度以及流体的pH值, 研究表明绿帘石向流体中释放的大量Ca2+有效促进了硫化物矿床的成矿作用进程。综上, 单矿物原位微区成分分析技术的不断提高使我们对花岗质岩浆作用及后期演化过程的认识有了很大进步, 在未来的研究中, 如何取长补短, 将这些数据进行良好地运用是本领域的重要方向。     

川西甲基卡区域伟晶岩分异演化及锂成矿过程：来自白云母矿物学的约束

甲基卡位于松潘-甘孜造山带内, 为我国超大型伟晶岩型锂矿床之一, 具有较大的经济价值。甲基卡伟晶岩在空间上具有良好的分带, 以二云母花岗岩为中心, 向外依次为微斜长石伟晶岩带(Ⅰ带)→微斜长石-钠长石伟晶岩带(Ⅱ带)→钠长石伟晶岩带(Ⅲ带)→锂辉石伟晶岩带(Ⅳ带)→白云母伟晶岩带(Ⅴ带)。为了研究甲基卡区域伟晶岩脉空间演化和稀有金属富集规律, 本文对各分带伟晶岩的白云母进行了主量、微量元素研究。根据矿物内部结构和化学成分, 区域伟晶岩存在两阶段演化: 早阶段在Ⅰ带至Ⅳ带形成均一结构的原生白云母; 晚阶段Ⅴ带形成具有成分分带的白云母, 二者在成分上Li、Rb、Cs含量和K/Rb、K/Cs比值呈现明显差异, 表明演化程度明显加大, 流体组分比例升高, 表明体系由以熔体为主的阶段进入以熔流体为主相对不稳定的阶段。从Ⅰ带至Ⅳ带, 原生白云母的K/Rb、Kb/Cs比值降低有限, 微量元素Li、Rb、Cs、Ta含量总体略微升高, 表明甲基卡区域伟晶岩脉经历了中等程度的结晶分异演化。V带云母的主微量成分呈振荡变化, 该现象主要受熔体不混溶过程的控制。总体上, 原生白云母均有具有高Li、Cs、B含量的特征, 表明初始熔体极具成矿潜力。白云母中K/Rb比值小于等于20或Cs含量大于等于400×10^-6可以作为评价Li-Cs-Ta(LCT)伟晶岩发生锂辉石矿化的指标。

     

Cerium and Ytrium in apatite as records of magmatic processes: Insight into fractional crystallization,magma mingling and fluid saturation

Apatite is a versatile mineral crystallizing at different stages of silicic magma evolution. Its composition may record that of magma, but could also be affected by interaction with fluids. The focus of this study is the well-recognized magma mingling process that was previously detected using plagioclase composition and in this study complementary record is sought in apatite. The apatite was analysed in two dioritic enclaves (primitive and hybrid) and host quartz monzonite, which is an igneous rock emplaced at ca. 340 Ma in mylonitized Góry Sowie gneisses (NE Bohemian Massif). The apatite was analysed in-situ by microprobe that allowed for chemical characterization of different apatite populations in quartz monzonite and analyses of thin acicular apatite in the enclaves. Apatite population in the quartz monzonite was chemically distinct from that in both enclave types and characterized by higher Y and lower Ce contents, such values are usually typical for peraluminous magmas. As such, the apatite transfer from felsic to mafic magma should be well recorded in apatite composition, which was not the case. Monzonite apatite composition was not commonly observed in the hybrid enclave despite massive plagioclase transfer and only rare resorbed cores with low Ce and Y contents were present. However, such low Ce and Y cores crystalized at the latest stage of apatite crystallization in the quartz monzonite, whereas the plagioclase transfer was an early episode. Therefore, we conclude that apatite transfer was limited during mingling and the apatite composition in the quartz monzonite is best explained by an early Cl-Ce-rich fluid removal and then fractional crystallization, while apatite in the primitive enclave is affected only by fractional crystallization. Altogether, Ce and Y composition of apatite is a valuable tool to record diverse magmatic processes such as fluid removal and precipitation from fluid in addition to fractionation of different REE phases and should be further explored.     

Filling the Bushveld Complex magma chamber: lateral expansion, roof and floor interaction, magmatic unconformities, and the formation of giant chromitite, PGE and Ti-V-magnetitite deposits

“His mind was like a soup dish—wide and shallow; ...” - Irving Stone on William Jennings Bryan

A compilation of the Sr-isotopic stratigraphy of the Bushveld Complex, shows that the evolution of the magma chamber occurred in two major stages. During the lower open-system Integration Stage (Lower, Critical and Lower Main Zone), there were numerous influxes of magma of contrasting isotopic composition with concomitant mixing, crystallisation and deposition of cumulates. Larger influxes correspond to the boundaries of the zones and sub-zones and are marked by sustained isotopic shifts, major changes in mineral assemblages and development of unconformities. During the upper, closed system Differentiation Stage (Upper Main Zone and Upper Zone), there were no major magma additions (other than that which initiated the Upper Zone), and the thick magma layers evolved by fractional crystallisation. The Lower and Lower Critical Zones are restricted to a belt that runs from Steelpoort and Burgersfort in the northeast, to Rustenburg and Northam in the west and an outlier of the Lower and Lower Critical Zone, up to the LG4 chromitite layer, in the far western extension north of Zeerust. It is only in these areas that thick harzburgite and pyroxenite layers are developed and where chromitites of the Lower Critical Zone occur. These chromitites include the economically important c. 1 m thick LG6 and MG1 layers exposed around both the Eastern and Western lobes of the Bushveld Complex. The Upper Critical Zone has a greater lateral extent than the Lower Critical Zone and overlies but also onlaps the floor-rocks to the south of the Steelpoort area . The source of the magmas also appears to have been towards the south as the MG chromitite layers degrade and thin northward whereas the LG layers are very well represented in the North and degrade southward. Sr and Os isotope data indicate that the major chromitite layers including the LG6, MG1 and UG2 originated in a similar way. Extremely abrupt and stratigraphically restricted increases in the Sr isotope ratio imply that there was massive contamination of intruding melt which “hit the roof” of the chamber and incorporated floating granophyric liquid which forced the precipitation of chromite (Kruger 1999; Kinnaird et al. 2002). Therefore, each chromitite layer represents the point at which the magma chamber expanded and eroded and deformed its floor. Nevertheless, this was achieved by in situ contamination by roof-rock melt of the intruding Critical Zone liquids that had an orthopyroxenitic to noritic lineage. The Main Zone is present in the Eastern and Western lobes of the Bushveld Complex where it overlies the Critical Zone, and onlaps the floor-rocks to the south, and the north where it is also the basal zone in the Northern lobe. The new magma first intruded the Northern lobe north of the Thabazimbi–Murchison Lineament, interacted with the floor-rocks, incorporated sulphur and precipitated the “Platreef” along the floor-rock contact before flowing south into the main chamber. This exceptionally large influx of new magma then eroded an unconformity on the Critical Zone cumulate pile, and initiated the Main Zone in the main chamber by precipitating the Merensky Reef on the unconformity. The Upper Zone magma flowed into the chamber from the southern “Bethal” lobe as well as the TML. This gigantic influx eroded the Main Zone rocks and caused very large-scale unconformable relationships, clearly evident as the “Gap” areas in the Western Bushveld Complex. The base of this influx, which is also coincident with the Pyroxenite Marker and a troctolitic layer in the Northern lobe, is the petrological and stratigraphic base of the Upper Zone. Sr-isotope data show that all the PGE rich ores (including chromitites) are related to influxes of magma, and are thus related to the expansion and filling of the magma chamber dominantly by lateral expansion; with associated transgressive disconformities onto the floor-rocks coincident with major zone changes. These positions in the stratigraphy are marked by abrupt changes in lithology and erosional features over which succeeding lithologies are draped. The outcrop patterns and the concordance of geochemical, isotopic and mineralogical stratigraphy, indicate that during crystallisation, the Bushveld Complex was a wide and shallow, lobate, sill-like sheet, and the rock-strata and mineral deposits are quasi-continuous over the whole intrusion.

香加南山花岗岩基位于东昆仑造山带东段,岩基主要岩石类型为花岗闪长岩。千瓦大桥-加鲁河一带花岗岩体为香加南山岩基的重要组成部分。香加南山花岗岩基含大量暗色微粒包体,包体中捕掳晶丰富。千瓦大桥-加鲁河一带花岗岩体寄主岩中斜长石和暗色微粒包体中捕掳晶斜长石具正常环带,An值震荡变化,角闪石和黑云母Mg O含量和Mg#值较低,具壳源特征;暗色微粒包体中基质斜长石具核边结构,核部和边部An值存在间断,角闪石和黑云母Mg O含量和Mg#值较高,具幔源特征。LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb同位素定年结果显示千瓦大桥花岗闪长岩、暗色微粒包体和加鲁河辉长岩的结晶年龄分别为251.0±1.9Ma、252.8±3.0Ma和221.4±3.3Ma。千瓦大桥花岗闪长岩和加鲁河花岗闪长岩富集轻稀土元素(LREE)和大离子亲石元素(LILE),亏损高场强元素(HFSE),具较低的Mg#和Nb/Ta比值;从千瓦大桥到加鲁河花岗闪长岩呈现出由准铝质中钾钙碱性系列向准铝-弱过铝质中钾-高钾钙碱性系列演化;暗色微粒包体和加鲁河辉长岩轻重稀土元素分异程度相对较低,具较高的Mg#和Nb/Ta比值。千瓦大桥花岗闪长岩和加鲁河花岗闪长岩分别为古特提斯演化俯冲阶段和后碰撞阶段幔源岩浆底侵新生地壳使其部分熔融产物。镁铁质岩浆注入长英质岩浆的混合作用形成了暗色微粒包体。岩浆混合过程中,如果岩浆不完全混合,混合岩浆中混入物质除了长英质岩浆的残留岩浆和捕掳晶,还应该有镁铁质岩浆与长英质岩浆之间的元素梯度差导致的物质扩散;如果岩浆为近完全混合,混合岩浆近似为镁铁质岩浆和长英质岩浆以一定比例二元混合。东昆仑东段晚古生代-早中生代幔源岩浆对花岗质岩浆的影响是一个持续的过程,从俯冲阶段早期流体交代地幔熔融,到俯冲阶段后期板片断离,然后同碰撞阶段板片断离的持续影响,再到后碰撞阶段加厚地壳的拆沉作用,由于地球动力学体制不同,导致幔源岩浆影响的大小和特征不同。     

Petrogenesis of the microcrystalline-dioritic enclaves from Jiuling granitoids in the eastern segment of Jiangnan Orogen and constraints on magma source materials

Numerous dark enclaves with different shapes are found in Jiuling Neoproterozoic granitoids. Precise LA-ICP-MS U-Pb dating was conducted on zircons extracted from two microcrystalline enclave samples, yielding crystallization ages of 822.6±5.8 Ma and 822.2±6.2 Ma, respectively. The consistent ages within analytical errors with the host granitoids suggested that they were the products of the same magmatism. The microcrystalline-dioritic enclaves commonly show plastic forms and contain similar plagioclase megacrysts to the host rocks, and both of the enclaves and host granitoids showed a complex composition and structural imbalance in plagioclases. Furthermore, the apatites with a euhedral acicular shape occurred widely in the microcrystalline-dioritic enclaves. All of these petrographic features above imply magma mixing is involved in their diagenesis. The enclaves and host granitoids show a marked zircon trace element difference and Hf isotopic signatures without correlation in zircon trace element pairs but form their own system between enclaves and host granitoids. Additionally, most of the zircons show extremely high ε_Hf (t) with ε_Hf (t) =3.54–11.94 from the southern samples, and ε_Hf (t) =1.0–9.09 from the central region. Some zircons with the higher ε_Hf (t) are similar to the zircons from the juvenile island arc in the eastern segment of Jiangnan Orogen. Integrated geological and Hf isotopic characteristics suggest microcrystalline-dioritic enclaves were derived from the partial melting process of the Mesoproterozoic crust which enriched juvenile island arc materials and mixed with the granitic magma that remelted from the Mesoproterozoic continental crust which relatively enriched ancient sediments and mixed with the host granitoid in diagenesis.     

西藏聂荣微陆块早侏罗世中期花岗岩及其包体的岩浆混合成因:锆石LA-ICP-MS U-Pb定年和Hf同位素证据

西藏早侏罗世聂荣岩体中偏基性包体与酸性寄主岩的岩浆源区性质和岩石成因以及相互关系尚未得到很好约束,直接限制了对聂荣微陆块在早侏罗世特提斯构造岩浆演化中的作用的认识。为探讨这一问题,本文对采自聂荣地区的一对花岗岩及其闪长岩包体样品进行了锆石U-Pb定年和原位Hf同位素分析。寄主花岗岩的结晶年龄为185.1±1.5Ma,闪长岩包体的结晶年龄为183.6±1.1Ma,指示酸性岩浆和基性岩浆同时侵位。寄主花岗岩的锆石ε_Hf(t)值介于-17.8~-0.9,其Hf同位素地壳模式年龄变化于1.3~2.4Ga,闪长岩包体的锆石ε_Hf(t)值和Hf同位素地壳模式年龄值分别分布于-11.9~-2.9和1.4~2.0Ga,均表现出很大的变化范围。同时于~185Ma结晶的两种岩浆锆石Hf同位素的不均一性和继承锆石的出现,指示了聂荣微陆块早侏罗世中期发生了古老基底深熔或重熔的熔体和富集岩石圈地幔来源的岩浆间的混合,之后再与围岩混染的岩浆作用过程。
