Isotopic and trace element constraints on the petrogenesis of lavas from the Mount Adams volcanic field,Washington

Strontium, Nd, Pb, Hf, Os, and O isotope compositions for 30 Quaternary lava flows from the Mount Adams stratovolcano and its basaltic periphery in the Cascade arc, southern Washington, USA indicate a major component from intraplate mantle sources, a relatively small subduction component, and interaction with young mafic crust at depth. Major- and trace-element patterns for Mount Adams lavas are distinct from the rear-arc Simcoe volcanic field and other nearby volcanic centers in the Cascade arc such as Mount St. Helens. Radiogenic isotope (Sr, Nd, Pb, and Hf) compositions do not correlate with geochemical indicators of slab-fluids such as (Sr/P) _n and Ba/Nb. Mass-balance modeling calculations, coupled with trace-element and isotopic data, indicate that although the mantle source for the calc-alkaline Adams basalts has been modified with a fluid derived from subducted sediment, the extent of modification is significantly less than what is documented in the southern Cascades. The isotopic and trace-element compositions of most Mount Adams lavas require the presence of enriched and depleted mantle sources, and based on volume-weighted chemical and isotopic compositions for Mount Adams lavas through time, an intraplate mantle source contributed the major magmatic mass of the system. Generation of basaltic andesites to dacites at Mount Adams occurred by assimilation and fractional crystallization in the lower crust, but wholesale crustal melting did not occur. Most lavas have Tb/Yb ratios that are significantly higher than those of MORB, which is consistent with partial melting of the mantle in the presence of residual garnet. δ ¹⁸O values for olivine phenocrysts in Mount Adams lavas are within the range of typical upper mantle peridotites, precluding involvement of upper crustal sedimentary material or accreted terrane during magma ascent. The restricted Nd and Hf isotope compositions of Mount Adams lavas indicate that these isotope systems are insensitive to crustal interaction in this juvenile arc, in stark contrast to Os isotopes, which are highly sensitive to interaction with young, mafic material in the lower crust.

大陆边缘弧岩浆成因与大陆地壳形成

大陆地壳如何形成是国际学术界长期关注并正在持续攻关的一个重大基础科学问题。活动陆缘弧的岩浆成因和密度分选过程是理解大陆地壳形成机制和演化过程的关键。北美白垩纪Cordilleran大陆边缘弧的形成可能经历了与底侵幔源岩浆有关的下地壳部分熔融和岩浆混合,或幔源初始玄武质岩浆的两阶段成分分异过程,以花岗质成分为主的北美内华达地区垂向地壳成分剖面结构可能与榴辉岩相残留体或堆晶岩的拆沉作用密切相关。目前并不清楚亚洲大陆南部以约200 Ma和约90 Ma两个时间断面为代表的中生代冈底斯弧,为何出现大量角闪石岩并具有玄武安山质的平均成分。探究中生代冈底斯弧的岩浆成因、地壳垂向成分结构和地壳形成机制可能有助于或多或少地解决这一问题。     

Geochemistry,geochronology, and petrogenesis of mid-Cretaceous Talabuco volcanic rocks,central Tibet: implications for the evolution of the Bangong Meso-Tethys

The widespread mid-Cretaceous igneous rocks in the northern margin of the Lhasa Block play an important role in understanding deep geologic processes, matter exchange at depth, and tectonic evolution of the Tibetan Plateau. In this paper, we report new zircon U-Pb ages, whole-rock major and trace element data, and Sr-Nd-Pb-Hf isotope data from the Talabuco andesites and basalts, which were dated at ~111 Ma. These rocks belong to the high-K calc-alkaline and shoshonite series, and show enrichment in terms of large-ion-lithophile elements (LILEs, e.g. Rb, U, and Th) and light rare earth elements (LREEs), but depletion of high-field-strength elements (HFSEs, e.g. Nb and Ti). The (⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr)_i ratios of the Talabuco andesites range from 0.7043 to 0.7048, and the ε_Nd(t) contents range from 0.68 to 4.33. The ratios of ²⁰⁶Pb/²⁰⁴Pb, ²⁰⁷Pb/²⁰⁴Pb, and ²⁰⁸Pb/²⁰⁴Pb are 18.6064–18.8993, 15.6233–15.6707, and 38.8634–39.1720, respectively. The ¹⁷⁶Lu/¹⁷⁷Hf and ¹⁷⁶Hf/¹⁷⁷Hf ratios of one sample range from 0.00081 to 0.00206 and 0.28280 to 0.28296, respectively. The ε_Hf(t) values for this sample range from 3.4 to 9.1, and the two-stage model Hf age (T_DM2) is 0.59–0.95 Ga. Combined with previous studies, the geochemical and isotopic data reveal that the parental magma of the Talabuco andesites was probably derived by partial melting of EM II-type sub-continental lithospheric mantle (SCLM). The Talabuco andesites are most likely generated by fractionation of mafic magma contaminated by subducted oceanic sediment and represent product of arc magmatism due to northward subduction of the Yarlung Zangbo Neo-Tethyan slab or southward subduction of the Bangong Meso-Tethyan slab.     

Geochemistry and petrogenesis of Triassic mineralized porphyries in the Geza of the Sanjiang orogenic belt,southwestern China

The Geza Andean-type arc is located in the southwestern Sanjiang tectonic belt (i.e. Jinsha, Lancang, and Nujiang River) of SW China, which is a product of the subduction of the Garzê–Litang oceanic crust beneath Zhongdian landmasses in the Late Triassic (235–204 Ma). The Geza Andean-type arc is an important belt of Cu-rich polymetallic mineralization that was recently discovered in China. Prolonged regional tectono-magmatic activity and several episodes of rich mineralization throughout the tectonic evolution of the Andean-type arc produced the super-large Pulang porphyry Cu deposits, the large Xuejiping porphyry Cu deposits, and the large Hongshan skarn-porphyry Cu polymetallic deposits. Here we report new LA-ICP-MS zircon U–Pb age of Songnuo and Qiansui intrusive rocks, and whole-rock major and trace element compositions of the Late Triassic mineralized porphyries from Geza in this region. Zircon U–Pb dating of the Qiansui quartz diorite porphyrite revealed a crystallization age of 220.3 ± 0.66 Ma, for the Songnuo quartz monzonite porphyry, a crystallization age of 204.7 ± 0.72 Ma. The Geza Andean-type arc granitic belt can be divided into three porphyry subzones based on the stage of Andean-type arc orogenic development and the distribution, composition, and geochemical characteristics of the intrusive rocks. Lithogeochemical characteristics show that the porphyry and Andean-type arc granite are of the same rock series (high-K calc-alkaline) and genetic type (I-type granite). The trace element geochemistry of these rocks is similar to that of Andean-type arc granite, which is enriched in Ba, Rb, La, Hf, chalcophile elements (Cu, Pb), and siderophile elements (Mo, Ni), and depleted in Nb, Ta, P, and Ti. In the Geza Andean-type arc, similarities in the major element, REE, and trace element compositions between porphyry and local acidic volcanic rocks suggest that they have the same or similar magmatic source rocks. The petrological characteristics of granite in the Geza Andean-type arc are similar to those of adakitic rocks, and the formation of porphyry and porphyry-related deposits resulted from magmatic hydrothermal fluids that originated in the upper mantle and lower crust. The porphyry Cu mineralization was probably produced from the accumulation and migration of ore-forming hydrothermal fluids and the resultant alteration of host rocks.     

Early Cretaceous continental arc-related volcanic rocks in the Duobuzha area,northern Tibet: implications for evolution history of the Bangong–Nujiang Ocean

New whole-rock major and trace elements data, zircon laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) U–Pb ages, and zircon Hf isotope compositions were analysed for Early Cretaceous volcanic rocks, also called Meiriqieco Formation (MF) in the Duobuzha area of the Southern Qiangtang–Baoshan Block (SQBB), northern Tibet. Our aim is to clarify their petrogenesis and tectonic setting, and constrain the evolution process on the northern margin of Bangong–Nujiang suture zone (BNSZ) during Early Cretaceous time. The MF volcanic rocks are mainly composed of andesites with subordinate basalts and rhyolites with high-K calc-alkaline affinity. Zircon LA-ICP-MS U–Pb dating for two andesite and one rhyolite samples give uniform ages within error of ca.113, 114, and 118 Ma, respectively, indicating they were erupted on the Early Cretaceous. The MF andesites have variable zircon ε_Hf(t) values (+0.5 to +10.5), which is different from those of MF rhyolites (+7.9 to +10.7). All the MF rocks are enriched in large ion lithophile elements, and depleted in high field strength elements, yielding the affinity of arc rocks. The MF basalts were most likely derived from the mantle wedge that was metasomatized by fluids released from subducting slab with the involvement of subducted sediments. The MF rhyolites were generated by partial melting of the juvenile mafic lower crust. The MF andesites are interpreted to have formed by mixing of the magmas that parental of the MF basalts and the MF rhyolites. In addition, a couple of distinctly magmatic sources are identified in the SQBB, and this may be related to mantle components injected into the continental crust. Combined with published geological data in the BNSZ and SQBB, we consider that the MF volcanic rocks are formed in a continental arc setting, suggesting that BNO were subducting during the Early Cretaceous time in the Duobuzha area.
