Late Palaeozoic tectonic setting of the southern Alxa Block,NW China: constrained by age and composition of diabase

The ages of diabase outcropping on the southern Alxa Block and in related tectonic setting are not well constrained, but are important for exploring the tectonic evolution of the southern Alxa Block. The ages of the zircons from the diabase intruding the Middle–Late Cambrian Xiangshan Group were measured using sensitive high-resolution ion microprobe II (SHRIMPII) and laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS), and the weighted mean ages of 276.8 ± 7.9 Ma and 276.2 ± 9.7 Ma were obtained, respectively. The major elements in the diabase indicate that it may belong to the tholeiitic series. With specific features of the rare earth elements (REEs) and trace elements, potentially affected by the continental crust based on the observed strong positive Pb anomaly, the diabase was produced in an intra-plate extension environment. Similar diabase/basalts were also found along the southern margin of the Alxa Block. Combined with sedimentary, palaeo-current, mafic, and felsic rocks in the southern Alxa Block, a back-arc extension environment potentially occurred in the southern Alxa Block during the Early–Middle Permian that resulted from the convergence between the North China Block (NCB) and the Yangtze Block.     

拉萨地块南木林盆地北缘中新世高锶低钇岩浆作用:锆石U-Pb年龄、Hf同位素和地球化学特征

拉萨地块南木林盆地北缘的林子宗群火山岩地层侵位有大量的花岗斑岩岩株和岩脉,空间分布上与南北向正断层的次级断裂相一致。本次研究对南木林盆地北缘的花岗斑岩进行了系统的元素地球化学,LA-MCICP-MS锆石U-Pb年代学和Lu-Hf同位素测试。数据结果表明:花岗斑岩具有高硅(68.31%~71.34%)、高钾(4.52%~4.96%)、高(La/Yb)N(21.59~36.81)、Sr/Y(Sr/Y=15.59~38.10)等特征,富集大离子亲石元素(LILE),亏损高场强元素(HFSE);花岗斑岩LA-MC-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb年龄为12.2±0.1Ma,ε_(Hf)(t)值为-0.6~+4.0。拉萨地块南木林盆地北缘花岗斑岩岩石学、地球化学特征显示其为新生下地壳部分熔融产物,且源区残留了石榴子石、金红石、角闪石,无斜长石残留,在岩浆上侵过程中,发生了碱性长石的分离结晶作用。花岗斑岩侵位于中新世,与区内南北向裂谷发育时代一致,成分上类似于拉萨地块南部同时期发育的高锶低钇斑岩、钾质岩,同为印度—欧亚大陆碰撞后东西向伸展背景产物。     

华南陆块钨和锡的地球化学时空分布

以1∶20万区域化探全国扫面计划水系沉积物和中国东部地壳与岩石元素丰度研究W、Sn分析数据为基础,探讨了华南陆块W、Sn的时空分布特征。从空间分布上看,华南陆块W、Sn的高含量主要分布在华南陆块东南部,即岳阳-怀化-桂林-梧州-茂名以东、长江以南广大地区的华夏地块华南造山带和东南沿海火山岩带与扬子地块下扬子台褶带和江南地轴;而南岭地区则是华南造山带W、Sn高含量的集中分布区,与华南中生代大花岗岩省成矿域产出的中国乃至世界重要的W、Sn矿产地相一致。从岩性上看,华南陆块东南部基底碱(正)长花岗岩、板岩、千枚岩、片岩以W、Sn背景含量高为特点。从时间分布上看,华南陆块东南部自中元古代以来形成的基底和盖层中砂岩和泥岩富含W、Sn,在地壳演化后期以富含W、Sn的碱(正)长花岗岩为主体的印支-燕山期大面积花岗质岩浆火山侵入活动达到高峰,造成华南陆块东南部W、Sn高背景含量的分布,形成巨大的W、Sn地球化学域。加之,华南陆块东部W、Sn成矿作用强烈,与W、Sn有关的中大型矿床密集分布,从而导致大量W、Sn区域地球化学异常和局部地球化学异常的形成。     

扬子北缘晚古元古代A型花岗质岩:Columbia超大陆裂解的证据

为约束扬子陆块晚古元古代构造演化历史,以华山观岩体的钾长花岗岩和二长花岗岩为研究对象,开展地球化学、年代学、全岩Nd同位素及锆石Hf同位素分析。锆石U-Pb定年结果显示钾长花岗岩和二长花岗岩的结晶年龄分别为1860±12 Ma(MSWD=0.69)和1832±14 Ma(MSWD=0.48)。两类岩石都显示铝质A型花岗岩的地球化学特征,一致的ε_(Hf)(t)值(-10.9～-13.8)及其二阶段模式年龄(2962～3183 Ma),揭示其由同一套太古宙的地壳部分熔融形成。综合已有ε_(Hf)(t)值资料,表明扬子陆块广泛存在两套太古宙长英质地壳(3.0～3.5 Ga; 3.5～3.9 Ga),为华山观两类花岗岩的岩浆形成提供了物源。华山观岩体两类花岗岩的锆石饱和温度揭示源岩位于较深的地壳,且二长花岗岩的形成有更多热源的参与。结合扬子陆块同期(～1.85Ga)A型花岗岩的地球化学数据,认为华山观钾长花岗岩具有后碰撞A_2型花岗岩的特征,形成于后碰撞伸展环境,而华山观二长花岗岩具有A_1型花岗岩的地球化学特征,暗示造山后伸展到陆内裂谷过渡的构造背景,可能与Columbia超大陆裂解有关。     

Multistage Metamorphic Evolution of the Trivandrum Granulite Block, Southern India

The Trivandrum Granulite Block (TGB), southern India records evidence for three distinct stages of evolution (M1–;M3) during the Pan-African high grade metamorphism, with possible temperature gradient from north to south of the terrain as detected from mineral phase equilibria thermobarometry in three classic localities, namely Nuliyam, Kunnanpara and Nellikkala. The charnockites, both incipient and massive, were formed during the first stage (M1) at temperatures higher than their host rocks, and at appreciably lower pressures. Charnockite formation was dominantly controlled by an increase in partial pressure of CO₂, along structural locales during subisothermal decompression, although an increase of potash activity could have also been an important factor in this process. The charnockites at Nellikkala in the northern margin of TGB were formed under appreciably more H₂O-rich conditions (X_H2O = 0.53±0.03) than those at Nuliyam (X_H2O = 0.25±0.02) in the southern margin. It is inferred that during the period between the metamorphic stages M1 and M2, the terrain experienced subisobaric cooling. Comparison of results from thermobarometry with data on absolute age determinations from geochronology of the metamorphic rocks in TGB allows the interpretation that the M1 metamorphic event took place during 540–;600 Ma, M2 at about 530 Ma and M3 in the interval of 440–;470 Ma. Mineralogic and thermobarometric evidence for earlier high-grade metamorphic processes, if any, have been erased from these rocks. The processes of charnockite formation and post-peak retrograde metamorphism in the TGB took place under high geothermal gradients (40–;150°/km). This probably testifies to the existence of a local heat source, either magmas at depth or mantle (plume) beneath the region. The general metamorphic cycle in the TGB is estimated to be ca. 100–;160 Ma, which is much shorter in time span than that in the other regions of southern Peninsular India such as the Karnataka Craton and the Eastern Ghats Mobile Belt. During this period, the terrain experienced rapid exhumation of approximately 6–;7 cm/year, with the total amplitude of vertical movements estimated to be about 16–;17 km.     

Structural geometry of a thick‐skinned fold‐thrust belt termination: The Olary Block in the Adelaide Fold Belt,South Australia

The Olary Block comprises a set of Palaeoproterozoic to Mesoproterozoic basement inliers that were deformed together with the Neoproterozoic sedimentary cover of the Adelaide Geosyncline during the ca 500 Ma Cambro‐Ordovician Delamerian Orogeny. Balanced and restored structural sections across this region show shortening of less than 20%. These basement inliers represent the interface between a region of thick‐skinned deformation bordering the Curnamona Craton to the north and a region of thin‐skinned deformation to the south and west in the Nackara Arc. The basement inliers represent upthrust segments of the subsided basin margin with the sedimentary package thickening to the south and to the west. Earlier formed extensional faults provided the major strain guides during Delamerian shortening. An early phase of east‐west shortening is interpreted to be synchronous with dextral strike‐slip deformation along basement‐relay structures (e.g. Darling River lineament). During progressive shortening the tectonic transport direction rotated into a northwest to north direction, coeval with the onset of the main phase of thin‐skinned fold deformation in the adjacent Nackara Arc.     

青藏高原北部巴颜喀拉与东昆仑地区新近纪以来火山岩的地球化学特征及其成因

青藏高原北部巴颜喀拉构造区和东昆仑构造区,新生代火山岩形成于中新世、上新世和更新世,岩性为碱玄岩、玄武粗安岩、粗面安山岩（或安粗岩）、粗面岩、粗面英安岩、流纹斑岩和流纹岩。火山岩的分布与区域深大断裂的位置关系密切,与下伏地层之间均为角度不整合接触。火山岩为钙碱性、高钾钙碱性系列和钾玄岩系列。根据最新的火山岩年代资料和分布特征,研究区火山岩可划分为三个大的区域：①可可西里·鲸鱼湖地区,以可可西里湖北为中心向“四周”时代逐渐变新;②木孜塔格．银石山地区,以银石山西南为中心向“四周”时代逐渐变新;③黑石北湖地区。三个区域相比较,其火山岩的范围与规模从东向西变小,时代从东向西变新。微量元素的K、Rb、Ba、Th活动性元素及La、Ce轻稀土元素富集明显,高场强元素Nb、Ta、Ti亏损。流纹斑岩和流纹岩具强的负Eu异常,δEu的变化范围为0．04～0．39,其他岩石具有弱的负Eu异常,δEu值为0．61～0．95,经球粒陨石标准化,稀土分布曲线均为右倾负斜率轻稀土强烈富集型。从微量元素特征和稀土元素特征判断具有岛弧火山岩的成分特征。研究区从东向西火山岩从酸性到中基性演化,伴随这一规律各类岩石Na2O和K2O的平均值总体呈减小的趋势,TiO2、Al2O3、TFe、MnO、MgO、CaO、P2O5、δSr、Sr／Y、∑BEE、δEu、La／Yb平均值呈增加趋势,对于同一类火山岩,MgO随时代变新含量降低。部分火山岩的Sr、Nd同位素反映出富集Ⅱ型地幔（EMⅡ）的地球化学特征。包体特征显示,具有少量浅源包体,又具有深源包体。研究区火山岩形成于大陆内部,可能是在青藏高原自中新世以来的隆升过程中形成的,可能与青藏高原岩石圈减薄或大陆内部的俯冲过程有关。     

湘西隘口新元古代基性-超基性岩墙年代学和地球化学特征:岩石成因及其构造意义

湘西隘口地区基性-超基性岩墙锆石LA-ICP-MSU-Pb年龄为831.6±9.7Ma,与桂北、赣东北基性岩墙具有相似的形成时代(约830～825Ma),组成了扬子陆块南缘新元古代呈带状断续分布的基性岩墙群。隘口地区的基性-超基性岩墙化学成分上属于碱性系列,超基性岩具有比基性岩明显高的MgO、Cr和Ni含量,所有样品都展示出相似的稀土和微量元素配分模式,部分样品具有轻微的Nb的负异常和明显的P、Ti的负异常,表明岩浆在演化的过程中遭受过不同程度的地壳的混染。该区基性-超基性样品具有明显高的相似于软流圈地幔的εNd(t)值,则暗示其母岩浆来源于长期亏损的软流圈地幔。结合其微量元素及其对应的比值和εNd(t)值与板内裂谷碱性玄武岩和洋岛玄武岩非常相似的特征,以及扬子周缘大规模相同时代岩浆作用的特点,我们认为这些新元古代火成岩是地幔柱有关的裂谷岩浆作用的产物,地幔柱或超级地幔柱的作用导致了Rodinia超大陆最终的裂解。
