Y/Ho Ratios in the Late Cenozoic Basalts from the Eastern Tuva, Russia: An ICP-MS Study with Enhanced Data Quality

A set of forty seven Late Cenozoic basaltic rocks from the Eastern Tuva (southern Siberia, Russia) have been studied by ICP-MS using In as an internal standard. Yttrium and Ho concentrations, determined along with other trace elements, varied systematically from one analytical run to another and covered the entire charge-and-radius-controlled field within the range 24 < Y/Ho < 34, so obscuring any geochemical interpretation. A correction procedure was therefore developed in which the Y/Ho ratios were recalculated using concentrations of these elements determined in international and in-house reference materials (BHVO-1, AGV-1, BIR-1 and U-94-5). Statistical analysis of the recalculated data set revealed two groups of samples not related by their genesis but rather by their respective analytical runs. Fourteen samples originally analysed in five different runs were then re-measured by the same instrument in peak-hopping mode using only specific mass peaks (m/z = 89, 115 and 165). All of these samples yielded Y/Ho ratios in a narrow range between 29 and 31, thus illustrating how analytical problems in the determination of Y and Ho by routine ICP-MS procedures can be overcome. Finally, a mean value of Y/Ho = 30.3 ± 1.1 (1s) was derived for the basaltic rocks of the Eastern Tuva. This is close to the value of 28.8 accepted for chondrites and for ocean island basalts. Despite the uniform Y/Ho ratio, the element concentrations in basaltic rocks from the Eastern Tuva show systematic enrichment in heavy rare earth elements and yttrium from the Miocene to the Quaternary.     

Characterisation of early Archaean chemical sediments by trace element signatures

Rare earth element (REE) plus yttrium (Y) patterns of modern seawater have characteristic features that can be used as chemical fingerprints. Reliable proxies for marine REE+Y chemistry have been demonstrated from a large geological time span, including Archaean banded iron formation (BIF), stromatolitic limestone, Phanerozoic reef carbonate and Holocene microbialite.Here we present new REE+Y data for two distinct suites of early Archaean (ca. 3.7-3.8 Ga) metamorphosed rocks from southern West Greenland, whose interrelationships, if any, have been much debated in recent literature. The first suite comprises magnetite-quartz BIF, magnetite-carbonate BIF and banded magnetite-rich quartz rock, mostly from the Isua Greenstone Belt (IGB). The REE+Y patterns, particularly diagnostic anomalies (Ce/Ce*, Pr/Pr*), are closely related to those of published seawater proxies. The second suite includes banded quartz-pyroxene-amphibole±garnet rocks with minor magnetite from the so-called Akilia Association enclaves (in early Archaean granitoid gneisses) of the coastal region, some 150 km southwest of the IGB. Rocks of this type from one much publicised and highly debated locality (the island of Akilia) have been identified by some workers [Nature 384 (1996) 55; Geochim. Cosmochim. Acta 61 (1997) 2475] as BIF-facies, and their ¹³C-depleted signature in trace graphite interpreted as a proxy for earliest life on Earth. However, REE+Y patterns of the Akilia Association suite (except for one probably genuine magnetite-rich BIF from Ugpik) are inconsistent with a seawater origin. We agree with published geological and geochemical (including REE) work [Science 296 (2002) 1448] that most of the analysed Akilia rocks are not chemical sediments, and that C-isotopes in such rocks therefore cannot be used as biological proxies.Application of the REE+Y discriminant for the above two rock suites has been facilitated in this study by the use of MC-ICP technique which yields a more complete and precise REE+Y spectrum than was available in many previous studies.     

北京房山岩体锆石U-Pb年龄和Sr、Nd、Pb同位素与微量元素特征及成因探讨

本文首次用SHRIMP锆石U-Pb测年法获得房山岩体主期侵入岩-花岗闪长岩的年龄为130．7±1．4Ma,证明房山岩体主体岩石形成于早白垩世。综合该岩体两期侵入宕的常量、微量、稀土元素和同位素及构造环境特征,发现房山岩体侵入岩具有许多与埃达克岩(adakite)极其相似的独特的岩石地球化学特征,但又与Defant和Drummond(1990)定义的典型埃达克岩(O型)有明显差别,与中国东部C型埃达克岩更为接近,或也称之为中国东部燕山期高Sr低Y型中酸性火成岩。本文通过房山岩体Sr、Nd、Pb同位素的系统研究,发现在143Nd／144Nd-87Sr／86Sr图解上,两期岩石投影点均落在EM Ⅰ型富集地幔范围之内,暗示其物质来源与富集地幔有关;钾长石Pb同位素特征也说明房山岩体岩浆来源与EM Ⅰ型富集地幔和下地壳关系密切。结合前人的碳、氢、氧同位素研究成果,认为房山岩体物质来源较深,与上地幔和下地壳有关。此外,发现房山岩体两期侵入岩的εNd(t)值(-13．6--14．2)远高于华北地台区古老下地壳的εNd(t)值(-32--44),而与汉诺坝二辉麻粒岩包体的εNd(t)值(-8--18)近似。由于现有的研究已确证汉诺坝二辉麻粒岩包体是由幔源基性岩浆在晚古生代-中生代时底侵到下地壳底部构成的年青下地壳的一部分,故推测房山岩体的物质来源与华北地台古老下地壳关系不大,而可能与年青下地壳关系密切。在此基础上,提出房山岩体两期岩石形成的两阶段模式:第一阶段可能发生于中生代早期,由于软流体 (层)上涌导致富集岩石圈地幔部分熔融生成带有富集地幔印记的玄武岩浆,该岩浆底侵到下地壳底部,冷却成为年青下地壳的一部分;第二阶段发生于中生代晚期,由于当时软流圈呈蘑菇云状大规模上升,热侵蚀面抬升到壳-幔过渡带,导致早中生代新底侵的玄武质下地壳在榴辉岩-麻粒岩相条件下部分熔融生成C型埃达克质岩浆(也即高Sr低Y型中酸性火成岩浆) 并上侵而成为房山岩体。     

西藏南部冈底斯岩基曲林岩体渐新世-中新世高Sr/Y比岩浆作用及其对深部过程的启示

曲林岩体位于冈底斯带中段的南缘,为渐新世-中新世复合岩体,主体为粗粒花岗斑岩,被后期煌斑质、花岗闪长质和花岗质岩脉切割,是多期岩浆作用的产物,出露面积约8km²。花岗斑岩两组样品（T0849-PG和T0849-G）的锆石U-Pb定年结果分别为29.7±0.1Ma和30.0±0.2Ma。花岗斑岩为高钾,准铝质,低MgO,高度富集轻稀土元素（LREE）和大离子亲石元素（LILE）,亏损重稀土元素（HREE）和高场强元素（HFSE）。此外具有高Sr、Sr/Y、（La/Yb）_N;低Y和Yb,弱Eu负异常等特征。岩体内发育一系列近南北向展布的花岗闪长玢岩脉,其中两组样品的锆石U-Pb定年结果分别为15.5±0.1Ma（T0848-PY）和14.4±0.1Ma（T0850）。两条花岗闪长玢岩脉具有与岩体主体相似的稀土和微量元素分布模式,同样富集轻稀土及大离子亲石元素,亏损重稀土及高场强元素。花岗斑岩的⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr_（i）=0.706102~0.706202,ε_Nd（t）=-0.6~+0.6,锆石ε_Hf（t）=+4.9~+7.9;花岗闪长玢岩脉的⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr_（i）=0.705429~0.705474,ε_Nd（t）=-1.4~-0.2,锆石ε_Hf（t）=+2.6~+7.6。本文数据和文献数据结果表明：曲林花岗斑岩与花岗闪长玢岩脉均来源于加厚南拉萨下地壳的部分熔融,很可能与增厚的深部岩石圈的拆沉或俯冲印度岩石圈的撕裂诱发软流圈上涌有关。

Petrogenesis of Permo-Triassic intrusive rocks in Northern Liaoning Province,NE China: implications for the closure of the eastern Paleo-Asian Ocean

ABSTRACT

The Changchun-Yanji belt recorded widespread Permo-Triassic magmatism, but their origins remain unclear, inhibiting a comprehensive understanding of the magmatic response to the final closure of the Paleo-Asian ocean in the eastern Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB). Here, we present new geochronological, geochemical, and Hf isotopic data for the Permo-Triassic plutons from Northern Liaoning province, NE China. Combined the published ages with our new data, the Permo-Triassic magmatism in the eastern CAOB can be divided into five episodes: early Permian (293–274 Ma), middle–late Permian (270–257 Ma), latest late Permian–Middle Triassic (255–242 Ma), Late Triassic (240–215 Ma), and latest Late Triassic (209–200 Ma). The middle Permian and Late Triassic mafic plutons (i.e. ~266 Ma Mengjiagou gabbro–diorite, ~240 Ma Jiancaicun gabbro and ~224 Ma Shudetun gabbro-diorite) contain relatively high TFe₂O₃, MgO, Cr and Ni contents with positive ε_Hf(t) values (+1.2 to +7.2), suggesting a depleted mantle origin. These mafic rocks together with the coeval granitoids make up typical bimodal associations, suggesting that they were formed under an extensional environment. The conclusions are also supported by occurrence of A-type granites during 270–257 Ma and 240–215 Ma. By contrast, the granitoids of 255–242 Ma in the eastern CAOB, including the Jianshanzi (~251 Ma) and Daganhe (~242 Ma) monzogranites, show typical geochemical features of adakitic granites, with high Sr/Y ratios and negative ε_Hf(t) values (–8.6 to – 22.0), suggesting that the magmas were generated through partial melting of thickened ancient lower crust. Combined with previous studies, a four-stage tectonic evolution scenario was proposed: (1) active continental margin stage during 293–274 Ma; (2) continuing subduction resulted in the initiation collision, moderate crustal thickening, and slab break-off during 270–257 Ma; (3) final closure of the Paleo-Asian Ocean associated with continued crustal thickening occurred during 255–242 Ma; (4) lithospheric delamination in a post-collisional extensional environment occurred during 240–215 Ma.
