Zircon U-Pb ages and geochemistry of the monzonitic granite in Rongguo area in Middle Gangdise Belt

In order to determine the geochronology, petrogenesis and tectonic background of the monzonitic granite in Rongguo area, the authors conducted the research on petrology, LA-ICP-MS zircon U-Pb geochronology and geochemistry. The results show that the zircons from the monzonitic granite are of magmatic genesis, and the zircon ²⁰⁶Pb/²³⁸U dating is (69±1) Ma, belonging to the Late Cretaceous. Al₂O₃, Na₂O, K₂O contents and K₂O/Na₂O ratio are 13.83%~14.41%, 3.68%~3.94%, 4.28%~4.35% and 1.08~1.18 respectively. The average aluminum saturation index (A/CNK) is 1.02, belonging to the weak peraluminous series. The rocks are enriched in LILE (Rb,U,K), strongly depleted in HFSE (Nb, Ta, Ti, etc.). Combined with the study of regional tectonics, the authors insisted that magma activity had not stopped from 80 to 69 Ma. The rock mass is the magmatic product of the subduction of the Neo-Tethys Ocean, forming in the orogenic environment during the whole orogenic movement period.     

内蒙古八大关斑岩型铜钼矿床成岩成矿年代学研究

八大关斑岩铜钼矿床是中国内蒙大兴安岭地区典型的斑岩型铜钼矿床之一。对矿区Ⅱ号岩体不同位置的2件岩石样品采用高精度的LA_ICP_MS锆石U_Pb测年,获得的锆石U_Pb年龄分别为(230.6±2.8)Ma和(230.5±4.4)Ma,两者在误差范围内非常一致,由此确认花岗闪长斑岩体的形成年龄约为230 Ma;对矿区7件辉钼矿样品采用Re_Os同位素测年,获得的Re_Os等时线年龄为(228.7±3.1)Ma,指示了八大关铜钼矿床辉钼矿的沉淀时间约为228.7 Ma。结合矿区岩相学、矿物学特征,辉钼矿呈浸染状分布于花岗闪长斑岩体内,且辉钼矿与黄铜矿密切共生,以及上述2种精确方法获得的年龄在误差范围内的一致性,说明花岗闪长斑岩即为成矿岩体,成岩与成矿大致同时或成矿略晚于成岩,表明八大关铜钼矿床形成于中三叠世,属于印支期成矿。

吉林东部延边地区二长花岗岩年代学、岩石成因学及其构造意义研究

高岭岩体位于吉林省延边地区和龙市东侧,大地构造位置上位于华北板块北缘东段,岩性主要为似斑状二长花岗岩,基质为中粒-中细粒结构。LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb测年结果显示,样品YH04和N-5的加权平均年龄分别为172.25±0.97Ma和170.9±0.68Ma,表明岩体侵位时代为中侏罗世。岩石地球化学特征上,高岭岩体样品具有高硅(69.60%~74.30%)、富铝(13.90%~15.80%)、富钾(3.05%~4.50%)和低镁(0.22%~0.82%)及Mg#(26~37)的特点。样品富集轻稀土元素,相对亏损重稀土元素(LREE/HREE=13~21),具有微弱的负Eu到正Eu异常(δEu=0.78~2.14),其稀土元素配分模式图与埃达克岩稀土元素配分模式图类似。高岭岩体样品富集大离子亲石元素Cs、Rb、Ba、K、Sr和高场强元素Th、U和Zr,同时亏损高场强元素Nb、Ta以及P元素。同时样品具有较低的初始87Sr/86Sr值(0.7039~0.7051)和负的εNd(t)值(-0.6~-0.3),且其t DM1和t DM2模式年龄分别为922~928Ma和984~1011Ma,表明研究区新元古代存在地壳增生事件。Sr-Nd同位素特征及岩石地球化学特征表明高岭岩体母源岩浆来源于加厚下地壳基性岩石部分熔融且受到了新元古代增生物质的影响。结合区域构造演化,中侏罗世高岭岩体侵位构造环境可能受到环太平洋构造体系和华北板块与西伯利亚板块持续碰撞的叠加影响。     

湖南瑶岗仙复式花岗岩岩石成因及与钨成矿关系

瑶岗仙复式花岗岩体位于南岭复杂构造带北端,赋存着大型瑶岗仙钨矿床。瑶岗仙花岗岩高硅、富碱,属于高钾钙碱性系列,为分异的S型花岗岩。系统的单颗粒锆石LA-ICP-MS U-Pb同位素年龄测定表明,瑶岗仙复式花岗岩体有多期成岩事件,分别为:170Ma形成的粗粒二云母花岗岩,162Ma形成的中细粒二云母花岗岩,157Ma形成的细粒白云母花岗岩,表明花岗质岩浆经历了多期脉动侵位。元素地球化学及Sr-Nd同位素特征表明,瑶岗仙花岗岩成岩物质来源于古元古代的泥质岩。瑶岗仙花岗岩成岩年龄为170~157Ma,处于燕山期陆内伸展-减薄的构造环境。瑶岗仙花岗岩的成岩事件与钨矿床成矿事件在时空上高度吻合,花岗岩岩浆经历了高度分离结晶并产生富挥发分的流体,表明花岗岩可能为岩浆期后热液阶段成矿作用提供了原始流体和物质来源。

对出露于阿尔泰造山带南缘可可托海地区二厂房岩体中的黑云母花岗闪长岩进行了LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb定年和岩石地球化学分析。结果显示,锆石的²⁰⁶Pb/²³⁸U年龄加权平均值为398.0±3.5 Ma（MSWD=1.3）,表明该岩体形成于早中泥盆世。岩体的SiO₂含量介于65.40%～69.31%之间,里特曼指数值为1.27～1.65,A/CNK值为0.92～1.02,属中钾、钙碱性、准铝质岩石。具有富集Cs、Rb、Th、U等大离子亲石元素和轻稀土元素,相对亏损重稀土元素和Nb、Ta、Zr、Hf等高场强元素,负Eu异常明显（δEu=0.48～0.65）的岛弧岩浆岩特征。结合区域地质资料,认为二厂房岩体形成于陆缘弧构造环境,是在古亚洲洋俯冲过程中,幔源的基性岩浆底侵下地壳后使之熔融并发生了岩浆混合作用的产物。     

New Evidence for Genesis of the Zoige Carbonate-Siliceous-Pelitic Rock Type Uranium Deposit in Southern Qinling: Discovery and Significance of the 64 Ma Intrusions

The carbonaceous-siliceous-argillitic rock type uranium deposit in the Zoige area is located in the northeastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau, and has gained much attention of many geologists and ore deposit experts due to its scale, high grade and abundant associated ores. Because of the insufficient reliable dating of intrusive rocks, the relationship between mineralization and the magmatic activities is still unknown. In order to study this key scientific issue and the ore-forming processes of the Zoige uranium ore field, the LA-ICP-MS zircon U-Pb dating of magmatic rocks was obtained:64.08±0.59 Ma for the granite-prophyry and ~200 Ma for the dolerite. U-Pb dating results of uraninite from the Zoige uranium ore field are mainly concentrated on ~90 Ma and ~60 Ma. According to LA-ICP-MS U-Pb zircon dating, the ages for the dolerite, porphyry granite and granodiorite are 200 Ma, 64.08 Ma approximately and 226.5-200.88 Ma, respectively. This indicates that the mineralization has close relationship with activities of the intermediate-acidic magma. The ages of the granite porphyry are consistent with those uraninite U-Pb dating results achieved by previous studies, which reflects the magmatic and ore-forming event during the later Yanshanian. Based on the data from previous researches, the ore bodies in the Zoige uranium ore field can be divided into two categories:the single uranium type and the uranium with polymetal mineralization type. The former formed at late Cretaceous(about 90 Ma), while the latter, closely related to the granite porphyry, formed at early Paleogene(about 60 Ma). And apart from ore forming elemental uranium, the latter is often associated with polymetallic elements, such as molybdenum, nickel, zinc, etc.     

磁铁矿中微量元素和铂族元素的组成特征

文章分析了磁铁矿中铂族元素(PGE)含量的特征,发现磁铁矿中铂族元素富集为10-9级,主要为PPGE(即Pd,Pt,Rh)。富集PPGE的主要原因是其在热液活动的晚期阶段可以被轻微的再分配和富集,其含量的高低严格受岩浆结晶过程中氧逸度的控制。磁铁矿的结晶程度直接影响岩浆体系的氧逸度,控制了PGE的含量分布,进而影响成矿。

Laser Ablation (U-Th-Sm)/He Dating of Zircons: Analytical Age Bias and its Consequence for Studying Detrital Zircon Populations

The in situ (U-Th-Sm)/He and U/Pb laser-ablation double-dating procedure is a valuable method that can provide a large dataset relatively efficiently in contrast with conventional bulk helium thermochronometry. In this study, we evaluate the potential age error associated with the double ablation procedure and report the in situ (U-Th-Sm)/He double-ablation dating of 249 zircons from the Fish Canyon Tuff locality. With LA-ICP-MS pseudo-depth profiling and 3D numerical modelling, we show that the concentric double-ablation procedure in minerals with U-Th-Sm zoning can generate a significant (U-Th-Sm)/He age error (positive or negative), resulting in over-scattering and/or an offset of the mean age. Pseudo-depth profiling is insufficient to predict the individual age error, partly because of the superimposed ablations. To evaluate the consequence of this inherent bias, we confront a synthetic age distribution to the error expected for U-Th-Sm zoned zircons analysed with double-ablation (U-Th-Sm)/He thermochronometry. As expected, a strong age bias causes the spreading of peak ages, downgrading the original signal. Yet, the throughput of the ablation-based method can allow intra- and inter-sample peak age identification and comparison, and the coupling of (U-Th-Sm)/He and U/Pb ages extends our ability to deconvolute a multimodal age spectrum.
