In-situ trace element analyses and Pb-Pb dating of zircons in granulite from Huangtuling, Dabieshan by LAM-ICP-MS

Zircon is an accessory mineral occurring in many types of rocks. For the rich content of U and low content of common Pb, it is the principal mineral used for U-Th-Pb dating. It can be sur-vived during weathering, transiting, high-grade metamorphism and ev…     

Chemical and Isotopic Characteristics of Gabbroic Xenoliths from Hannuoba,China

Nine pieces of gabbroic xenoliths from Hannuoba were examined for their major and trace elements and Nd,Sr and Pb isotopes.The results show that the gab-broic xenoliths are of more mafic basaltic composition .Their abundances show narrow variations in major elements.The trace element contents are highly variable in contrast with those of host basalts and lherzolite xenoliths.The gabbroic xenoliths are rich in Nd(0.51159-0.51249),Sr(0.70491-0.70768) and low in radiogenic Pb(16.283-17.046, 15.191-15.381 and 36.999-37.476),significantly different from basalts and lherzolites in isotopic space.The calculated Nd and Pb model ages are about 3.0-3.5 Ga.The rocks have relatively low equilibrium T(-850℃) and P(0.8-0.9 Gpa).They could be inter-preted to be the product of upper mantle melting at the boundary between the lower crust and the upper mantle.Their chemical and isotopic variations can be ascribed to different degrees of melting,segregation and long-term evolution.     

山东临朐玄武岩微量元素地球化学特征

本文测定了山东临朐一带新生代玄武岩的稀土和某些微量元素含量。玄武岩的稀土元素含量较高,特别是轻稀土富集,同时可能存在微弱的铕正异常。在不相容元素丰度图形上,其特点和洋岛碱性玄武岩接近,和大陆裂谷玄武岩有一定差别。根据稀土元素和不相容元素含量特点,认为玄武岩是地幔部分熔融产物。根据作者提出的采用简单二元组分混合、锶同位素混合和部分熔融方程的共同制约及有关参数,计算了岩石形成时两种典型的地幔源区即MORB源和Plume源的可能混合比例。     

大别-苏鲁造山带高级变质岩中锆石微区U，Th和Pb化学组成特征统计

对大别-苏鲁造山带27个高级变质岩(以榴辉岩和片麻岩为主)中锆石进行了337次微区离子探针U.Th和Pb测定和U-Pb年龄研究。根据测定点年龄的不同，可以把变质岩中锆石分成三种不同成因区域，一是变质岩原岩(继承)锆石区域，它遭受了不同程度的变质重结晶作用，其^206Pb/^238U年龄值大于277Ma；二是三叠纪高压.超高压变质阶段形成的变质锆石区域，其年龄限定为273-184Ma；三是碰撞造山变质作用后形成的锆石区域，其年龄小于148Ma。对三种类型锆石中U，Th和Pb特征分析发现：片麻岩锆石中U的含量是榴辉岩类锆石中U的丰度的两倍，片麻岩类和榴辉岩类锆石中Th的丰度大致相近。各类岩石变质阶段形成的变质锆石和原岩锆石区域相比，U含量有升有降，而Th含量则大幅下降，下降幅度一般在2-10倍，高者可达20-30倍以上。除石榴石橄榄岩外，各类岩石变质锆石中区域的Th/U比都小于0.1，这是判断高压-超高压变质成因锆石的极重要化学指标。大别山超高压变质阶段后形成的锆石的Th/U比多数类似于其原岩锆石，少数接近变质锆石，说明白垩纪后期热扰动对变质岩中已存在的锆石的影响如同岩浆结晶过程。各类岩石中锆石Pb的含量变化比较复杂，Pb-U正相关性表明锆石中普通铅含量很低，绝大部分为放射成因铅。
