Geochemistry and Petrogenesis of Siwana Peralkaline Granites, West of Barmer, Rajasthan, India

The bimodal Malani suite, West of Barmer, Rajasthan is characterized by discontinuous, ring shaped outcrops of Siwana peralkaline granite with minor outcrops of basalt. The peralkaline, within- plate and A-type nature of granite are evident by its chemical characteristics. The granite is characterized by high Na₂O+K₂O, Fe/Mg, Zr, Nb, Y, Zn; low Al₂O₃, CaO and Sr and is significantly low in absolute abundance of trace and REE elements compared to type area Siwana granite. The granite is correlated to the “Pan-African” event and its petrogenesis and tectonic significance are discussed.

“三江”云龙锡(钨)成矿带晚白垩世二云母花岗岩LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb定年及其地质意义

云龙成矿带位于西南“三江”中段,是该区重要的锡(钨)矿集区.本文利用LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb定年方法,对带内与成矿相关的二云母花岗岩进行了年龄测试,获得成岩年龄为72.2±0.8 Ma(MSWD=1.9),属晚白垩世.这是在保山地块首次发现确凿的晚白垩世岩浆岩,表明保山地块经受了该时期构造-岩浆活动的影响.通过锆石微量元素和主微量地球化学特征分析,认为其应属S型花岗岩.结合区域地质背景,认为云龙成矿带该期花岗岩可能与腾冲地块晚白垩世S型花岗岩形成于一致的动力学背景,为新特提斯东向俯冲过程中内陆增厚地壳熔融的产物.本次报道的晚白垩世S型花岗岩与成矿带内一期重要成矿期次时代一致.结合前人研究资料认为,云龙成矿带内三期主要的成矿事件均有同期构造-岩浆事件对应,其中早、晚白垩世成矿活动与同期花岗岩体侵入紧密相关,而新生代成矿活动则与崇山剪切带走滑活动关系密切.这表明本区锡(钨)矿床经历了多期成矿过程,岩浆侵入活动和构造相关混合岩化对矿床形成均有贡献,单一的成因机制(花岗岩相关或混合岩化)可能无法合理解释本区矿床的成因.     

基于ExcelVBA实现箱图剔除法确定化探异常下限

尽管目前地球化学异常下限的计算方法较多,但不同程度上存在计算过程复杂、应用范围较窄、相关专业软件普及程度低等问题。针对这些问题,笔者提出将EDA技术与经典统计概率法相结合的方法,并应用Excel下的程序开发工具进行VBA编程,在Excel中实现异常下限的快速计算。该方法具有计算简便、异常下限稳健以及应用范围广等优点。依据方法原理,该方法仅适用于来自单一母体的数据样本,来源母体可通过分形图给出初步判定方法。     

Regional Tectonic Transformation in East Kunlun Orogenic Belt in Early Paleozoic: Constraints from the Geochronology and Geochemistry of Helegangnaren Alkali-feldspar Granite

The Helegangnaren feldspar granite exposed in the eastern part of East Kunlun, is characterized by high concentrations of SiO2 and alkaline, low abundances of Fe, Mg and Ca, metaluminous-weak peraluminous. Trace elements analysis shows that the granite is depleted extremely in Ba, Sr and Eu, and rich in some large-ion lithophile elements and high field strength elements. Besides, the granite has high Ga contents, the values of 104(Ga/Al) vary from 2.50 to 2.77, which is mainly greater than the lower limit of A-type granites (2.6), and is higher than the I- and S-type granites’ average (2.1 and 2.28, respectively). Rare earth element (REE) is characterized by relatively high fractionations of light REE (LREE) and heavy REE (HREE) (LREE/HREE=9.3–13.60, (La/Yb)N=10.92–18.02), pronounced negative Eu anomalies (δEu=0.08–0.13), and exhibits right-dipping gull pattern. Major elements, rare elements and trace elements features show the granite is ascribed to A-type granite and A2 subtype in tectonic genetic type. They are plotted into post-collision or within-plate area in a variety of tectonic discriminations. Geological and geochemical data comprehensively suggest that the granite is formed in a post-collision extensive tectonic setting. Laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) zircon U-Pb dating yields a weighted mean age of 425?Ma, belonging to Middle Silurian, which is similar to the age of the post-collision geological events in the region. The differences of magmatic rocks in formation age, rocks assemblage and rocks series systematically indicate that the regional tectonic stress regime in the East Kunlun orogenic belt experienced a major transformation from compress to extension in Middle Silurianin, and the Helegangnaren feldspar granite intruded in the early stage of tectonic transformation.     

中条铜矿峪超大型斑岩铜矿床:地质、蚀变与成矿

山西中条山铜矿峪超大型斑岩铜矿床位于华北板块南部,秦岭造山带北侧,处在聚合板块活动大陆边缘的挤压-伸展的构造转换环境。矿区地层主要为古元古界"铜矿峪亚群",即火山-次火山岩,岩石经变质作用为绿片岩相和低角闪岩相。铜矿床在空间上与元古代钙碱性S型花岗斑(杂)岩体紧密共生,严格受火山机构控制。据辉钼矿Re-Os年龄,成矿时代为(2 108±32)Ma,是我国最古老的斑岩型铜矿床。铜矿床呈厚板状透镜体产出,矿石以细脉浸染状构造为主,有少量块状矿石产出。铜矿平均品位为0.68%,其中30%为富铜矿,并伴生钼、金。成矿热液主要源自深部地幔,也与地壳成分和天水渗入有关。因火山喷气和二次沸腾,在高侵位后,由分离作用形成碱质交代及石英绢云母化叠加红长石化的围岩蚀变,无面型环状分带特征。矿床成因推测为变火山热液斑岩型铜矿床。预测矿床深部可能赋存有岩浆房,找矿潜力很大。
