金属矿床的同位素直接定年方法

矿床的直接定年就是直接对成矿流体或矿石矿物进行同位素定年 ,这样确定的年龄就直接代表了成矿年龄。目前主要有石英和闪锌矿中流体包裹体的Rb Sr同位素定年、黄铁矿和石英中包裹体的Ar Ar同位素定年、金属硫化物的Rb Sr同位素定年、金属硫化物和氧化物的Sm Nd同位素定年、金属硫化物的Re Os同位素定年 ,以及单个矿石矿物的Pb逐步淋滤法定年     

冀北滦平地区中生代火山岩地层锆石U-Pb测年及启示

在冀北—辽西地区, 冀北的滦平地区是中生代地层最为齐全, 也是唯一的晚中生代沉积作用基本连续的地区.许多研究者认为该地区的土城子组与张家口之间存在着J₃—K₁界线和中生代的构造转换界面.该地区分布的主要中生代地层自下而上依次为髫髻山组、土城子组、张家口组、大北沟组、大店子组和西瓜园组.通过LAICPMS方法的锆石UPb测年, 获得了该地区中生代火山岩地层的年代格架, 即髫髻山组的顶界年龄为(162.8±3.2)Ma, 土城子组形成的主体年代范围是(142.6±1.3)~(136.4±1.9)Ma, 张家口组形成的年代范围是(135.7±1.8)~(135.2±2.3)Ma, 大店子组顶部安山岩的年龄是(131.4±3.7)~(130.2±3.0)Ma.锆石的稀土元素分析表明: 土城子组中锆石的稀土元素特征与张家口组中锆石的特征一致, 而与髫髻山组中的锆石有较大的区别.综合以上分析数据及野外地质特征可以得出以下结论: (1)该地区的土城子组与髫髻山组之间不仅时间间隔较长, 而且二者中火山岩的源区也有较大的区别; 土城子组与张家口组之间不仅时间上基本连续, 而且二者中火山岩的源区也有明显的一致性.这就表明了滦平地区的土城子组与张家口组是同一地质背景下的产物, 即该地区二者之间应不存在J₃—K₁界面和构造转换界面.(2)滦平地区大店子组顶部火山岩在年代上与辽西北票—义县地区的义县组底部、辽西凌源地区的张家口组顶部基本相当.      

甘肃北山红柳园地区泥盆系三个井组和墩墩山群LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb测年及其意义

对甘肃北山红柳园地区三个井组下部玄武岩和墩墩山群安山质火山岩进行了LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb年龄测定,三个井组火山岩形成于420Ma±15Ma,相当于晚志留世;墩墩山群火山岩形成于367Ma±10Ma,相当于晚泥盆世。测年结果表明,晚志留世北山古生代洋盆已经俯冲消亡,并开始碰撞造山,而晚泥盆世墩墩山群火山岩则是北山早古生代洋盆碰撞造山后裂谷拉伸作用的产物,标志北山及相邻地区晚泥盆世进入到新的构造演化阶段——晚古生代板内伸展阶段。     

东川汤丹铜矿床石英真空击碎及其粉末阶段加热^40Ar—^39Ar年龄谱的含义

采用真空击碎技术提取东川汤丹铜矿床石英流体包裹体进行40Ar-39Ar法年龄测定,获得了逐渐下降的阶梯形年龄谱,表明流体包裹体含有过剩氩;数据点在40Ar／36Ar-39Ar／36Ar图解上构成等时线,等时线年龄为（712±33）Ma,代表了矿床的形成年龄。随后对其粉末进行40Ar-39Ar阶段加热（100—800℃）分析,形成相对比较平坦的年龄谱,坪年龄为（317±6）Ma（39Ar占45％,含真空击碎分析在内）,粉末加热分析全部数据点构成的等时线年龄为（321±13）Ma。电子探针分析和显微镜观察证实了该石英样品中含有粒径大于100μm,K2O含量为8％-10％,形成时间明显晚于石英的白云母类富钾矿物,粉末阶段加热分析结果表明～320Ma应为后期白云母类矿物的年龄。     

青海都兰县阿斯哈金矿区花岗斑岩岩石地球化学、锆石U-Pb年代学与Hf同位素研究

阿斯哈金矿区钻孔中新发现的花岗斑岩,呈岩脉、岩株或舌状分布。岩石呈灰-灰白色,细-中粒斑状结构,块状构造。主要矿物为石英、斜长石、钾长石、黑云母及少量角闪石,副矿物有磁铁矿、钛铁矿、锆石、磷灰石和榍石等。全岩高硅(SiO_2=70.03%~72.83%),高钾(K_2O=3.96%~5.21%),低P_2O_5(0.09%~0.10%),低FeO~T/MgO(1.76~3.91),A/CNK值(1.04~1.29)多数小于1.1,为高钾钙碱性系列弱过铝质-过铝质花岗岩类岩石,具有I型花岗岩特征。样品具有轻稀土富集和中等负Eu异常(δEu=0.71~0.78)特征,且富集大离子亲石元素(LILE:K、Rb、Th、U等)、亏损高场强元素(HFSE:Nb、Ta、Ti等)。LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb定年结果显示,其结晶年龄为222.1±3.9 Ma(MSWD=5.4,n=15),形成于晚三叠世。锆石Hf同位素组成(ε_(Hf)(t)=-4.3~-1.4)和二阶段Hf模式年龄(t_(DM2)=1.34~1.53 Ga),表明新发现的花岗斑岩源于古老地壳物质的深熔或重熔,并可能有幔源物质的加入。上述特征表明,阿斯哈金矿区花岗斑岩形成于东昆仑晚古生代-早中生代构造-岩浆旋回的碰撞晚期-后碰撞阶段,可能是晚三叠世幔源岩浆底侵下地壳岩石部分熔融的产物,并在形成过程中有幔源物质的加入。此外,研究区花岗斑岩的侵位与沟里地区(包括阿斯哈)金多金属矿床的形成具有内在的联系。     

内蒙古锡林浩特东部地区早白垩世花岗岩地球化学、锆石U Pb年龄及地质意义

通过对锡林浩特东部地区早白垩世花岗岩体进行SHRIMP锆石U Pb测年、地球化学测试,讨论其形成构造环境。花岗岩测年结果为：正长花岗岩(DS214)(1391±17) Ma,花岗岩(DS220)(1347±17) Ma,表明研究区花岗岩形成于早白垩世早期。花岗岩地球化学具有高硅、富碱、相对低铝的特征,A/CNK平均值106,为弱过铝质花岗岩。微量元素相对富集大离子亲石元素(Th、U、K),明显亏损Nb、Ba、Sr、P、Ti等高场强元素;稀土总量高,为12290×10-6～36877×10-6,LREE/HREE值为571～1436,呈右倾模式,负Eu异常显著(010～050),表现为A型花岗岩特征。K2O-Na2O构造环境判别图表明样品为A型花岗岩,Y/Nb Ce/Nb图解显示花岗岩为A2型。主量元素、微量元素特征指示花岗岩形成于造山后岩石圈伸展作用阶段,在壳源岩浆演化过程中存在幔源物质混染作用。花岗岩成因可能是晚古生代末—中生代初期间古亚洲洋闭合引起的一系列板块碰撞作用(包括蒙古—鄂霍次克洋闭合),使造山后期地壳逐渐增厚并发生重力垮塌,导致构造环境由挤压转变为伸展,同时受古太平洋板块西向俯冲的影响。

Geochemistry and zircon U-Pb geochronology of Aligoodarz granitoid complex, Sanandaj-Sirjan Zone, Iran

The Aligoodarz granitoid complex (AGC) is located in the Sanandaj-Sirjan Zone (SSZ), western Iran and consists of quartz-diorites, granodiorites and subordinate granites. Whole rock major and trace element data mostly define linear trends on Harker diagrams suggesting a cogenetic origin of the different rock types. (⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr)_i and εNd_t ratios are in the ranges 0.7074-0.7110 and −3.56 to −5.50, respectively. The trace elements and Sr-Nd isotopic composition suggest that the granitoids from the AGC are similar to crustal derived I-type granitoids of continental arcs. The whole rock suite was produced by assimilation and fractional crystallization starting from a melt with intermediate composition likely possessing a mantle component. In situ zircon U-Pb data on the granites with LA-ICP-MS yield a crystallization age of ∼165 Ma. Inherited grains spanning in age from ∼180 Ma up to 2027 Ma were also found and confirm that assimilation of country rock has occurred.Chemical and chronological data on the AGC were compared with those available for other granitoid complexes of the central SSZ (e.g., Dehno, Boroujerd and Alvand). The comparison reveals that in spite of the different origins that have been proposed, all these granitoid complexes are likely genetically related. They share many chemical features and are derived from crustal melts with minor differences. Alvand granites have the most peculiar compositions most likely related to the presence of abundant pelitic component. All these intrusions are coeval and reveal the presence of an extensive magmatic activity in the central sector of the SSZ during middle Jurassic.

Differential subduction and exhumation of crustal slices in the Sulu HP-UHP metamorphic terrane: insights from mineral inclusions, trace elements, U-Pb and Lu-Hf isotope analyses of zircon in orthogneiss

Based on new evidence the Sulu orogen is divided from south‐east to north‐west into high‐pressure (HP) crustal slice I and ultrahigh‐pressure (UHP) crustal slices II and III. A combined set of mineral inclusions, cathodoluminescence images, U‐Pb SHRIMP dating and in situ trace element and Lu‐Hf isotope analyses was obtained on zircon from orthogneisses of the different slices. Zircon grains typically have three distinct domains that formed during crystallization of the magmatic protolith, HP or UHP metamorphism and late‐amphibolite facies retrogression, respectively: (i) oscillatory zoned cores, with low‐pressure (LP) mineral inclusions and Th/U > 0.38; (ii) high‐luminescent mantles (Th/U < 0.10), with HP mineral inclusions of Qtz + Grt + Arg + Phe + Ap for slice I zircon and Coe + Grt + Phe + Kfs + Ap for both slices II and III zircon; (iii) low‐luminescent rims, with LP mineral inclusions and Th/U < 0.08. Zircon U‐Pb SHRIMP analyses of inherited cores point to protolith ages of 785–770 Ma in all seven orthogneisses. The ages recorded for UHP metamorphism and subsequent retrogression in slice II zircon (c. 228 and c. 215 Ma, respectively) are significantly older than those of slice III zircon (c. 218 and c. 202 Ma, respectively), while slice I zircon recorded even older ages for HP metamorphism and subsequent retrogression (c. 245 and c. 231 Ma, respectively). Moreover, Ar‐Ar biotite ages from six paragneisses, interpreted as dating amphibolite facies retrogression, gradually decrease from HP slice I (c. 232 Ma) to UHP slice II (c. 215 Ma) and UHP slice III (c. 203 Ma). The combined data set suggests decreasing ages for HP or UHP metamorphism and late retrogression in the Sulu orogen from south‐east to north‐west. Thus, the HP‐UHP units are interpreted to represent three crustal slices, which underwent different subduction and exhumation histories. Slice I was detached from the continental lithosphere at ～55–65 km depth and subsequently exhumed while subduction of the underlying slice II continued to ～100–120 km depth (UHP) before detachment and exhumation. Slice III experienced a similar geodynamic evolution as slice II, however, both UHP metamorphism and subsequent exhumation took place c. 10 Myr later. Magmatic zircon cores from two types of orthogneiss in UHP slices II and III show similar mid‐Neoproterozoic crystallization ages, but have contrasting Hf isotope compositions (εHf_(～785) = ?2.7 to +2.2 and ?17.3 to ?11.1, respectively), suggesting their formation from distinct crustal units (Mesoproterozoic and Paleoproterozoic to Archean, respectively) during the breakup of Rodinia. The UHP and the retrograde zircon domains are characterized by lower Th/U and ¹⁷⁶Lu/¹⁷⁷Hf but higher ¹⁷⁶Hf/¹⁷⁷Hf(t) than the Neoproterozoic igneous cores. The similarity between UHP and retrograde domains indicates that late retrogression did not significantly modify chemical and isotopic composition of the UHP metamorphic system.
