太行山太古宙变质杂岩中富铝片麻岩的变质作用

太行山太古宙变质杂岩中富铝片麻岩主要分布在湾子岩系的底部，常常与大理岩密切伴生或者以似层状体产于花岗质片麻岩中。依据岩石结构和反应关系将变质作用分为早期、中期和晚期三个阶段。早期矿物组合为Ｇｔ（石榴石）＋Ｓｔ（十字石）＋Ｐｌ（斜长石）＋Ｍｓ（白云母）＋Ｂｉ（黑云母）＋Ｒｕ（金红石）＋Ｑｚ（石英）±Ｋ－ｆｓ（钾长石）；中期矿物组合为Ｇｔ＋Ｇｅｄ（铝直闪石）＋Ｂｉ＋Ｐｌ＋Ｉｌｍ（钛铁矿）＋Ｃｏ（刚玉）＋Ｓｉｌ１（毛发状夕线石）＋Ｑｚ＋Ｋ－ｆｓ±Ｍｓ；晚期矿物组合为Ｈｃ＋Ｋ－ｆｓ＋Ｓｉｌ２（针柱状夕线石）。矿物温度压力计和内部一致性热力学计算结果表明早期矿物组合形成于６８０℃和０．８ＧＰａ左右，刚玉、铝直闪石和毛发状夕线石组合形成于７３０℃～７５０℃和０．７ＧＰａ左右的很窄的Ｐ－Ｔ范围内，夕线石和尖晶石矿物组合的形成温度与前一组合相似或略高，压力偏低。在Ｐ－Ｔ空间上上述矿物组合的演化构成了一条近等温减压（ＩＴＤ型）的ＰＴｔ轨迹。     

Melt-producing and melt-consuming reactions in the Achankovil cordierite gneisses, South India

Migmatitic cordierite gneisses within the Achankovil Zone (AZ) of southern Pan‐African India record melt‐producing and subsequent melt‐consuming mineral reactions. Early mineral assemblages Bt‐Sil‐Qtz and Bt‐Sil‐Spl, deduced from inclusion textures in garnet prophyroblasts, break down via successive dehydration melting reactions to high‐T phase assemblages (e.g. Grt‐Crd‐Liq, Opx‐Liq, Spl‐Crd‐Liq). Later back reactions between the restite and the in situ crystallizing melt resulted in thin cordierite coronas separating garnet from the leucosome, and partial resorption of garnet to Opx‐Crd or Crd‐Bt‐Qtz symplectites. Leucosomes generally display a moderate (low‐strain gneisses) to strong (high‐strain gneisses) depletion of alkali feldspar attributed to mineral‐melt back reactions partly controlled by the degree of melt segregation. Using a KFMASH partial petrogenetic grid that includes a melt phase, and qualitative pseudosections for microdomains of high and low Al/Si ratios, the successive phase assemblages and reaction textures are interpreted in terms of a clockwise P–T path culminating at about 6–7 kbar and 900–950 °C. This P–T path is consistent with, but more detailed than published results, which suggests that taking a melt phase into account is not only a valid, but also a useful approach. Comparing P–T data and lithological and isotopic data for the AZ with adjacent East Gondwana fragments, suggests the presence of a coherent metasedimentary unit exposed from southern Madagascar via South India (AZ) and Sri Lanka (Wanni Complex) to the Lützow–Holm Bay in Eastern Antarctica.     

Phase equilibria in the hornblende-bearing basic gneisses of the Uvete area, central Kenya

Abstract The hornblende-bearing basic gneisses in the Uvete area, central Kenya, were metamorphosed under a narrow range of P and T (6.5 ± 0.5kbar and 530 ± 40°C) of the staurolitekyanite zone in the Mozambique metamorphic belt. They show a wide variety of divariant and trivariant mineral assemblages consisting of hornblende, cumminatonite, gedrite, anthophyllite, chlorite, garnet, epidote, clinopyroxene, plagio-clase and quartz. The bulk and mineral chemistries and the graphical representation of phase relations show that each mineral assemblage approaches chemical equilibrium and defines a unique composition volume in the A'(Al + Fe³⁺− (13/7)Na)-F(Fe²⁺)-M'(Mg)-C'(Ca-(3/7)Na) tetrahedron. The composition volumes are distributed quite regularly and do not overlap each other.
The phase relations in the Uvete area are in contrast with those in the staurolite-kyanite zone amphibolites in the Mt. Cube quadrangle, Vermont. The amphibolites there contain low-variance mineral assemblages formed under different values of μ_H2O and μ_CO2. These assemblages define overlapping composition volumes in the A'-F'-M'-C'tetrahedron.
The mineral assemblages in the Uvete area are interpreted as having formed in equilibrium with fluid at a high and nearly constant μH₂O value. Such a fluid composition was externally controlled by the supply of H₂O-rich fluid expelled from the surrounding pelitic and psammitic rocks. The body size of the basic gneisses in the Uvete area (less than 400m in thickness) was small enough for the fluid to migrate completely.     

Modelling of mineral equilibria in ultrahigh-temperature metamorphic rocks from the Anápolis–Itauçu Complex, central Brazil

A new quantitative approach to constraining mineral equilibria in sapphirine‐bearing ultrahigh‐temperature (UHT) granulites through the use of pseudosections and compatibility diagrams is presented, using a recently published thermodynamic model for sapphirine. The approach is illustrated with an example from an UHT locality in the Anápolis–Itauçu Complex, central Brazil, where modelling of mineral equilibria indicates peak metamorphic conditions of about 9 kbar and 1000 °C. The early formed, coarse‐grained assemblage is garnet–orthopyroxene–sillimanite–quartz, which was subsequently modified following peak conditions. The retrograde pressure–temperature (P–T) path of this locality involves decompression across the FeO–MgO–Al₂O₃–SiO₂ (FMAS) univariant reaction orthopyroxene + sillimanite = garnet + sapphirine + quartz, resulting in the growth of sapphirine–quartz, followed by cooling and recrossing of this reaction. The resulting microstructures are modelled using compatibility diagrams, and pseudosections calculated for specific grain boundaries considered as chemical domains. The sequence of microstructures preserved in the rocks constrains a two‐stage isothermal decompression–isobaric cooling path. The stability of cordierite along the retrograde path is examined using a domainal approach and pseudosections for orthopyroxene–quartz and garnet–quartz grain boundaries. This analysis indicates that the presence or absence of cordierite may be explained by local variation in a_H2O. This study has important implications for thermobarometric studies of UHT granulites, mainly through showing that traditional FMAS petrogenetic grids based on experiments alone may overestimate P–T conditions. Such grids are effectively constant a_H2O sections in FMAS‐H₂O (FMASH), for which the corresponding a_H2O is commonly higher than that experienced by UHT granulites. A corollary of this dependence of mineral equilibria on a_H2O is that local variations in a_H2O may explain the formation of cordierite without significant changes in P–T conditions, particularly without marked decompression.     

堇青石合成的研究进展

堇青石是一种具有较低热膨胀系数、良好抗热震性的矿物材料。天然的堇青石矿物原料很少,因此常常采用人工合成的方法来合成堇青石材料。本文根据近年来合成堇青石的最新研究,论述了堇青石合成方法的研究进展,具体包括高纯氧化物高温固相反应合成法、天然矿物高温固相反应合成法、利用工业废料合成法、利用农业废料合成法、溶胶-凝胶法和低温燃烧合成法。目前工业化生产堇青石大多采用天然矿物高温固相反应法,此法虽有众多优点,但同时也存在许多的不足之处。因此,如何能将其他方法用于工业化生产,将成为合成堇青石今后研究中的一个发展方向。

通过对浙西南遂昌县玉岩古元古代花岗片麻岩锆石LA-ICP-MS U-Pb年代学研究,以探讨和揭示华夏地区基底的物质组成。玉岩花岗片麻岩锆石可分为两类:第一类锆石年龄相对年轻,其~(207)Pb/~(206)Pb年龄介于597~1917 Ma之间,结合稀土元素特征,表明为变质成因锆石,在锆石谐和图上,15个年轻锆石点整体上构成了一条不一致线,其上交点年龄为1904±19Ma,代表了片麻岩形成的变质时间,表明华夏地区存在古老的古元古代晚期岩浆岩-变质岩基底,下交点年龄为262±47Ma,可能记录了华夏地块晚二叠世―早三叠世构造-变质作用的响应。第二类锆石年龄相对较老,锆石~(207)Pb/~(206)Pb年龄介于2087~2523Ma之间,锆石发育核幔结构并有明显的振荡环带,较老的锆石年龄表明华夏地区可能存在太古宙末至2.5Ga的古老基底物质。     

塔里木盆地北缘新太古代辛格尔灰色片麻岩形成时代问题

获得塔里木盆地北缘辛格尔灰色片麻岩的可靠形成年龄对研究塔里木克拉通地壳构造演化是十分重要的。本研究应用SIMS锆石U-Pb定年,获得了塔里木北缘辛格尔南托格拉克布拉克杂岩中占主要成分的灰色片麻岩的形成年龄为2565±18(2σ)Ma,这一研究结果说明了辛格尔地区的灰色片麻岩和库鲁克塔格中部的蓝石英花岗岩等均为新太古代晚期形成的TTG组份的岩浆岩。综合已有的研究结果,如灰色片麻岩中以残留包体形式存在的斜长角闪岩的Sm-Nd等时线年龄=3263±126Ma(2σ),εNd(t)=+3.2±0.7(Huetal.,1992),以及塔里木北缘范围内各种片麻岩、片岩和各种花岗岩的Nd模式年龄(TDM)分布在3200~2600Ma范围内(冯新昌等,1998;董富荣等,1999;Huetal.,2000),完全可以确认塔里木盆地北缘普遍存在中—新太古代基底。但是,它们遭受了古元古代构造、变质和岩浆活动的强烈改造。辛格尔灰色片麻岩中~2300Ma、~2000Ma和片麻状花岗岩的~2000Ma锆石U-Pb年龄(高振家等,1993;郭召杰等,2003),以及铁门关斜长角闪岩中的锆石U-Pb年龄~1800Ma(郭召杰等,2003)等,就是两次重要构造热事件的记录。K-Ar年龄同样揭示塔里木盆地北缘新元古代至早古生代时期的地质热事件,40Ar/39Ar坪年龄或激光微区40Ar/39Ar等时线年龄等对该区变质岩中角闪石、黑云母及白云母的研究结果表明,塔里木北缘在大约850~500Ma期间,表现为各地段不均一整体性构造隆升(胡霭琴等,出版中)。     

大容山花岗岩带中石榴子石,堇青石的成因研究

该花岗岩带中石榴子石富MgO而贫MnO,并且具正成分环带构造,证明是原岩残留晶;堇青石与残留包体中堇青石成分相似,均属镁堇青石,Na_2O<0.33％,表明不是岩浆晶出矿物,而是岩浆源区残留晶。矿物谱学工作表明,堇青石中赋存原生CO_2和H_2O,某组成是矿物形成温度的灵敏指示剂;另一方面,由于挥发分的存在,“湿”堇青石畸变系数△不能反映硅铝有序度,而红外分裂指数能够及“干”堇青石△可能能够反映硅铝有序度。石榴子石-堇青石组合是理想的地质温压逸度计,它给出了大容山岩体及旧州岩体源区的T、P、f_(H_2O)和P_(H_2O)。     

TTG片麻岩与地壳早期动力学

英云闪长质－奥长花岗质－花岗闪长质片麻岩（ＴＴＧ）在太古宙高级区和绿岩－花岗岩区广泛分布。大量研究表明它们主要是由与玄武岩成分相当的各类源岩在不同条件下部分熔融形成的，也有一些由玄式质岩浆分离结晶或未成熟杂砂岩部分熔融形成。高温高压实验证明，玄武质岩石在中低压水饱和条件下熔融产生钙碱性岩浆，在中、高压、ｐｆ＜Ｐｔ条件下熔融程度在１０％～３０％时产生英云闪长质－奥长花岗质岩浆。不同压力下熔融残留相成分和比例有明显差异，导致ＲＥＥ配分模式的不同。只有在１．６ＧＰａ左右或更高压力、ｐｆ＜ｐｔ条件下才产生与太古宙ＴＴＧ杂岩地球化学性质相同或相似的熔体。因此，对ＴＴＧ片麻岩的地球化学性质、成因和生成环境的研究对探讨地壳早期的动力学过程具有重要意义。
