Paleozoic collisional and intraplate granitoids of the Baikal area: comparative geochemistry and petrogenesis

Early Paleozoic granitoids of autochthonous and allochthonous facies in the Baikal area (Ol’khon Island, Khamar-Daban Ridge) are in close spatial association with gneisses, migmatites, and plagiogranites and are usually confined to granite–gneiss domes. They are virtually not subjected to magmatic differentiation. Formation of granitoids of the Solzan massif and Sharanur complex lasted 26–28 Myr, which might be considered an indicator of collisional granitoid magmatism. Collisional granitoids of different provinces have a series of indicative features: They are peraluminous and highly potassic and are enriched in crustal elements (Rb, Pb, and Th) but sometimes have low contents of volatiles. In contrast to collisional magmatism, petrogenesis of intraplate granitoids does not depend on the composition and age of the enclosing rocks. The geochemical evolution of intraplate granitoid magmatism in the Baikal area is expressed as an increase in contents of F, Li, Rb, Cs, Sn, Be, Ta, Zr, and Pb and a decrease in contents of Ba, Sr, Zn, Th, and U during the differentiation of multiphase intrusions. The geochemical diversity of these granitoids formed both from crustal and from mantle sources and as a result of the mantle–crust interaction, might be due to the effect of plume on the geologic evolution of intraplate magmatism. The wide range of compositions and geochemical types of igneous rocks (from alkali and subalkalic to rare-metal granitoids) within the Late Paleozoic Baikal magmatism area suggests its high ore potential.     

Mesozoic high-Ba–Sr granitoids from North China: geochemical characteristics and geological implications

Abstract Mesozoic magmatism occurred extensively in the North China block (NCB) and the Dabie–Sulu orogen (DSO) post-dating the North–South China collision, resulting in abundant intrusive and volcanic rocks ranging from basic to acidic compositions. The intermediate-acidic intrusive rocks can be grouped into two types, namely high-Ba–Sr granitoids and low-Ba–Sr granitoids that both have distinct geochemical characteristics. The high-Ba–Sr granitoids are similar in most of the incompatible trace element systematics to the associated basic rocks, which probably originated from melting of subcontinental lithospheric mantle, indicating significant mantle contributions to them. Geochemical similarities are observed between the basic rocks from the NCB and DSO, implying a regional-scale magma-generating mechanism and that mantle enrichment beneath the DSO was independent from the Triassic deep continental subduction in the region. We therefore interpret that the Mesozoic magmatism resulted from delamination of the ancient lithospheric mantle beneath the eastern part of North China.     

New geological and geochemical data on the granitoids of the Uspensky massif in Southern Primorye

New geological, petrochemical, mineralogical, and geochemical data are presented on the Uspensky granitoid massif in Southern Primorye. The massif consists of the rocks of two associations: (1) the early association (103.3 ± 2.4 Ma) consisting of garnet-bearing biotite and two-mica granite-leucogranites and (2) the late association (99 ± 2 Ma) represented by biotite (±amphibole) granodiorites, melanogranites, and granites. The granitoids of both associations have moderate potassic alkalinity and elevated alumina contents but differ in the proportions of alumina, calcium, and alkalis. The garnet-bearing granite-leucogranites are characterized by the highest Rb, Th, and U contents and the lowest Sr, Ba, Hf, and Zr contents. The REE distribution patterns have a quasi-symmetric shape and deep Eu minimums. The melanogranites show higher Sr and Ba contents and, as granites, are characterized by asymmetric REE spectrums with an insignificant negative Eu anomaly. The porphyraceous granodiorites and granites are peculiar in their lowered Sr and Ba contents, while the granodiorites have lowered contents of K, REE, Zr, Hf, Th, and U; elevated Nb contents; and a distinctive Eu minimum.

松潘－甘孜造山带南段晚三叠世兰尼巴和羊房沟花岗岩岩石学、地球化学特征及成因

对位于松潘-甘孜地体南部的兰尼巴岩体和羊房沟岩体进行了详细的岩石学、地球化学及锆石U-Pb年代学研究,重点讨论了岩体的成因。U-Pb激光剥蚀等离子体质谱(LA-ICPMS)年龄集中在211Ma附近,属晚三叠世,代表了岩体的形成年龄。两岩体具有中等至较高的SiO2含量(58.31%～68.02%)和较高的全碱含量(6.70%～8.80%),具有准铝质(A/CNK=0.68～0.99)的特征,属于高钾钙碱性到橄榄玄粗岩系列。其中,兰尼巴岩体南段富Al2O3(15.85%～16.27%)、K2O(3.29%～3.40%),中等MgO(1.16%～1.47%),并具有高Sr(869×10-6～1032×10-6)、低Y(9.53×10-6～9.85×10-6)特征以及中等至较高的稀土元素分馏[(La/Yb)N>31],并且见有暗色包体,非常类似于下地壳熔融形成的钾质埃达克岩。兰尼巴岩体的北段及羊房沟岩体的主量元素、微量元素特征都很相似,相对兰尼巴岩体南段具有更高的K2O含量(4.08%～5.96%),相对低的Sr(664×10-6～868×10-6),稍高的Y(19.71×10-6～27.76×10-6)和明显较低的Sr/Y比值(29.39～42.05),显示出高钾钙碱性I型花岗岩的特征,可能来自于增厚下地壳的部分熔融。野外地质特征和地球化学特征均显示岩体的形成有幔源物质或新生地壳物质的参与,其中幔源岩浆的加入为松潘-甘孜造山带大量中生代花岗岩的形成提供了热源和部分物源。地幔岩浆的上侵和高钾钙碱性花岗岩体的形成标志着松潘-甘孜造山带至少在晚三叠世就已处于伸展构造环境。     

华北克拉通东部古太平洋板块俯冲与回撤作用:来自辽西兴城地区晚中生代花岗质岩石的记录与启示

目前对于华北克拉通东部晚中生代花岗质岩石的成因仍存在地幔柱、加厚/拆沉下地壳部分熔融、俯冲板片脱水导致地壳熔融等不同认识。辽西兴城地区晚中生代花岗质岩石主要由二长花岗岩、石英闪长岩、花岗斑岩和石英正长岩组成,岩浆成因锆石U-Pb同位素定年结果显示岩浆活动主要发生于晚侏罗世(156Ma)、早白垩世早期(139Ma)、早白垩世中期(130～125Ma)。岩石地球化学测试分析结果显示岩石属于高钾钙碱性系列且具有富集K、Pb等大离子亲石元素而相对亏损Nb、Ta、Ti等高场强元素等活动陆缘岩浆岩特点,表明辽西地区晚中生代岩浆活动的发生与俯冲作用有关。晚侏罗世-早白垩世早期(156～139Ma)花岗质岩石地球化学特征与I型花岗岩类似,同时具有富集的Hf同位素组成(εHf(t)=-22.70～-18.66)和古老的Hf同位素二阶段模式年龄(tDM2=2387～2767Ma),其初始岩浆可能来源于古老中上地壳的部分熔融;形成于130Ma的花岗质岩石同样具有与I型花岗岩相类似的岩石地球化学特征,但其Hf同位素组成突变为亏损(εHf(t)=+3.64～+6.22、tDM1=537～969Ma),其初始岩浆起源于新元古代新生地壳物质的部分熔融并混入少量亏损地幔物质组分;形成于125Ma的花岗质岩石为碱性A型花岗岩,岩石地球化学特征与其他岩石有所不同,具有负的εHf(t)值(-17.30～-11.56)和相对古老的Hf同位素二阶段年龄(tDM2=1917～2278Ma),初始岩浆可能起源于较为古老的中下地壳部分熔融并有幔源物质的参与。华北克拉通东部形成于160～139Ma的花岗质岩石具有I型、高钾钙碱性、与埃达克质岩石类似的高Sr/Y、低Y含量特征和富集的Hf同位素组成,而形成于130～120Ma的花岗质岩石具有A型、碱性、与典型岛弧岩浆岩类似的岩石地球化学特征和相对亏损的Hf同位素组成,同时晚中生代岩浆活动具有向洋年轻化的特点,表明华北克拉通东部156～139Ma期间可能受到古太平洋板块的持续俯冲作用,而139～130Ma古太平洋俯冲板片开始回撤,130～125Ma进入古太平洋俯冲板片持续回撤导致的强烈区域伸展作用阶段。古太平洋俯冲板片脱水交代岩石圈地幔并形成幔源岩浆,幔源岩浆不断底侵作用于古老/新生地壳使其发生部分熔融为花岗质岩石提供岩浆来源。     

Neoproterozoic collisional S-type granitoids of the Yenisei Ridge: petrogeochemical composition and U-Pb,Ar-Ar,and Sm-Nd isotope data

Collisional granitoid magmatism caused by the Early Neoproterozoic orogeny in the west of the Siberian craton is considered. New data on the petrogeochemical composition, U-Pb (SHRIMP II), Ar-Ar, and Sm-Nd isotopic ages of the Middle Tyrada granitoid massif in the northwestern Yenisei Ridge are presented. Plagiogranites, granodiorites, and quartz diorites of the massif are of calcareous and calc-alkalic composition. The elevated alumina contents and presence of accessory garnet permit them to be assigned to S-type granitoids. Their spidergrams show Rb, Ba, and Th enrichment, minimum Nb, P, and Ti contents, and no Sr depletion. The granitoids formed through the melting of plagioclase-enriched graywacke source, obviously Paleoproterozoic metaterrigenous rocks of the Garevka Formation and Teya Group (T_Nd(DM) = 2.0-2.5 Ga), judging from the isotope composition of the granitoids (T_Nd(DM-2st) = 2200 Ma and 8_Nd(T) = − 6.0) and the presence of ancient zircon cores (1.80-1.85 Ga). Formation of granitoids took place in the final epoch of the Grenville collision events in the late Early Neoproterozoic (U-Pb zircon age is 857.0 ± 9.5 Ma). In the Late Neoproterozoic, the granitoids underwent tectonothermal reworking caused by Vendian accretion and collision events on the southwestern margin of the Siberian craton, which explain the younger K-Ar biotite age, 615.5 ± 6.3 Ma.     

苏鲁造山带晚中生代地幔的富集特征——来自辉长岩的地球化学证据

位于苏鲁造山带的乳山浅色辉长岩形成于晚中生代（约120Ma）,SiO2含量为53～55％,MgO含量较低,为3．6～4．9％,富集轻稀土元素（LREE）和大离子亲石元素（LILE）,亏损高场强元素,如Nb、Ta、Ti等,具有明显的“地壳”印记。Sr同位素中等富集（0．7072～0．7075）,Nd同位素比值较低（￡。（t）=-9．5～-11．6）,Sr—Nd同位素组成变化不大,反映岩浆无明显的地壳混染,代表了晚中生代地幔源区的同位素组成。辉长岩Sr—Nd同位素组成介于EMI与EMII端元之间,反映这种富集地幔是由早期预富集的地幔在中生代早期受到深俯冲的扬子陆壳的改造而形成的。苏鲁地区晚中生代基性侵入岩、火山岩和脉岩同位素组成的差别,反映了地幔同位素组成具有明显的横向和纵向不均一性．这种差异也是地幔交代作用强度的反映。     

Abdar-Khoshutula intrusive-dike series: Evolution and origin of granitoids in Early Mesozoic magmatic area (Central Mongolia)

The dike belt and separate intrusive bodies of the Abdar–Khoshutula series were formed in the NE-trending linear zone, southwest of the Daurian–Khentei batholith, in the peripheral part of the Early Mesozoic magmatic area, on the western termination of the Mongol–Okhotsk belt. The granitoids of this series are subdivided into following geochemical types: anatectic granitoids of the calc-alkaline and subalkaline series, alkaline rocks, and plumasite rare-metal leucogranites (Li–F granites). The entire series was formed within approximately 12–15 Ma. Its geochemical evolution follows two trends, which correspond to two stages of the granitoid magmatism. The early stage was responsible for the formation of granitoids of two phases of the Khoshutulinsky Pluton and alkaline syenites with similar trace element distribution patterns. However, syenites, as agpaitic rocks, are significantly enriched in Ba, Zr, and Hf. The late stage of the intrusive- dike series resulted in the formation of the dike belt and Abdar Massif of rare-metal granites. These rocks show enrichment in Li, Rb, Cs, Nb, Ta, Sn, and Y, and deep negative anomalies of Ba, Sr, La, and Ce, which are best expressed in the late amazonite–albite granites of the Abdar intrusion and ongonites of the dike belt. The intrusive-dike series in the magmatic areas of different age of Mongolia and Baikal region are characterized by the wide compositional variations, serve as important indicators of mantle-crustal interaction and differentiation of granitoid magmas, and could highlight the nature of zonal areas within the Central Asian Fold Belt. Obtained geochemical data indicate a potential opportunity to concentrate trace and ore components during long-term evolution of the intrusive-subvolcanic complexes, which could be indicators of the evolution of the ore-magmatic systems bearing rare-metal mineralization.
