Was the Panzhihua Large Fe-Ti Oxide Deposit,SW China,Formed by Silicate Immiscibility?

The Panzhihua mafic intrusion, which hosts a world-class Fe-Ti-V ore deposit, is in the western Emeishan region, SW China. The formation age(～260 Ma), and Sr and Nd isotopes indicate that the Panzhihua intrusion is part of the Emeishan large igneous province and has little crustal contamination. To assess ore genesis of the Panzhihua Fe-Ti-V ore deposit, two different models have been provided to explain the formation, namely silicate immiscibility and normal fractional crystallization.

江西印支期蔡江岩体中暗色微粒包体的发现及其地质意义

文章报道了江西蔡江花岗质岩体中发现暗色微粒包体,以及这些包体的地质、岩相学、LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb年代学和元素地球化学特征。包体多呈椭圆状,显示淬冷边和反向脉,具有典型的岩浆结构并含有针状磷灰石,有的包体含有长石捕虏晶。包体具有相对较低的SiO₂（低至57.05 wt%）和较高的MgO+Fe₂O₃（高达14.21 wt%）含量。LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb定年数据表明,包体形成于晚三叠世（224 Ma）,与寄主花岗岩（230~228 Ma）在误差范围内基本一致。上述特征表明,包体是离散的幔源偏基性岩浆团或者是幔源与寄主岩浆混合的产物。原始包体岩浆属于超钾质岩浆,可能是通过岩石圈地幔中交代成因的金云母辉石岩脉发生部分熔融而形成的。暗色微粒包体的发现为幔源岩浆底侵提供了直接证据,从而为蔡江花岗质岩石形成于较高温度提供佐证。该研究对于进一步探讨华南印支期花岗岩形成的热源机制具有意义。     

Extensional Setting of Hainan Island in Mesoproterozoic: Evidence from Granitic Intrusions in the Baoban Group

The Mesoproterozoic Baoban Group is the oldest basement in Hainan Island and has played an important role in Columbia (Nuna) supercontinent reconstructions. The Mesoproterozoic granitic intrusions in the Baoban Group are the most widely-exposed Precambrian magmatic rocks and are the key to understanding the tectonic settings of Hainan Island and its relationship with the South China Block and the Columbia supercontinent. New LA-ICP-MS zircon U-Pb dating on three mylonitic granite samples from the Tuwaishan and Baoban areas yield ages ranging from 1447 Ma to 1437 Ma, representing the absolute timing of the emplacement of the granitic intrusions. Combined with previously published geochronological data for rocks from the Baoban Group and regional mafic intrusions, it is concluded that the Baoban Group formed at 1460–1430 Ma, coeval with the emplacement of the granitic and mafic intrusions. New in-situ zircon Lu-Hf isotope analyses for the three mylonitic granite samples yielded positive εHf(t) values, ranging from +0.49 to +8.27, with model ages (TCDM) ranging from 2181 Ma to 1687 Ma, suggesting that the granitic intrusions originated from a mixed source of Paleoproterozoic crust with juvenile crust. New zircon trace element data show characteristics of high Th/U values of 0.24–1.50, steep slopes from LREE to HREE and negative Pr, Eu anomalies with positive Ce, Sm anomalies, representing typical magmatic zircons formed in continental crust. Compared with available magmatic and detrital zircon ages from Precambrian rocks in the Cathaysia Block, Yangtze Block and western Laurentia, it is inferred that Hainan Island was separated from both the Cathaysia Block and the Yangtze Block, instead being connected with western Laurentia in the Columbia supercontinent. Considering the decreasing tendency of basin deposition time along the western margin of Laurentia, it is proposed that Hainan Island was located to the north or northwest of the Belt-Purcell Supergroup, along the western margin of Laurentia, during the breakup of the Columbia supercontinent.     

阿尔金造山带南缘晚奥陶世赞岐质闪长岩的发现及其地质意义

本文以阿尔金造山带南缘出露的高镁赞岐质闪长岩为研究对象,通过系统的野外地质工作、显微岩相学、年代学和全岩地球化学分析,探讨其成因类型和源区性质,限定了阿尔金造山带构造演化格架。闪长岩LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb测年结果表明其形成年龄为(445±3) Ma,属晚奥陶世。地球化学数据显示:闪长岩Al₂O₃含量为15.11%~16.19%,且具有高MgO(3.93%~5.29%)和K₂O(1.68%~2.67%)含量的特征,属于高镁钙碱性准铝质岩石;闪长岩具有较高的Cr(29.3×10^-6~140×10^-6)、Ni(27.1×10^-6~43.5×10^-6)、Ba(606×10^-6~936×10^-6)、Sr(513×10^-6~734×10^-6)和Y(26.4×10^-6~31.1×10^-6)含量,与典型的高镁赞岐岩类地球化学特征一致;稀土配分图和微量元素蛛网图显示闪长岩样品富集轻稀土元素和大离子亲石元素(如Rb和K),而亏损高场强元素(如Nb、Ti和Zr),表现出与俯冲带环境岩浆岩相似的性质;高Ti/Zr比值(48~60)与Mg^#(46.74~53.06)、高Cr(29.3×10^-6~140×10^-6)与高Ni(27.1×10^-6~43.5×10^-6)含量等暗示闪长岩岩浆源区来自遭受俯冲组分交代过的富集岩石圈地幔。岩石成因分析表明,阿尔金造山带南缘晚奥陶世高镁赞岐质闪长岩是后碰撞构造环境下俯冲板片断离诱发地幔楔发生减压熔融而形成,代表了早古生代最强烈的区域性幔源基性岩浆侵入事件。     

扬子地台西南缘康滇断隆带海孜双峰式侵入岩体年代学、地球化学及其地质意义

海孜辉绿岩-花岗斑岩双峰式侵入岩体位于扬子地台西南缘康滇断隆带中的武定-元江裂陷槽内,本文对海孜辉绿岩和花岗斑岩主要进行了LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb定年和地球化学研究。花岗斑岩的定年结果为1764±18Ma,辉绿岩的定年结果为1765±5.4Ma。岩相学及地球化学测定数据显示海孜地区辉绿岩具有细粒和粗粒两种结构,与花岗斑岩之间存在明显的组分间断,形成双峰态,其中花岗斑岩为钙碱性(Si O2=70.93%~73.04%,σ=1.28),辉绿岩属过碱性(Si O2=42.46%~48.26%,σ=15.3),Hf同位素特征表明两者可能均与幔源母岩浆相关。而海孜双峰式分布特征显示大陆裂谷拉张环境的构造背景,暗示海孜岩体是1.7Ga时昆阳裂谷裂解时期产物,与全球Columbia超大陆的裂解事件相呼应。作为扬子地台西南缘首次发现的1.7Ga双峰式侵入岩,海孜双峰式侵入岩的发现具有重要的地质意义。     

滇西南团梁子岩组绿片岩、基性脉岩及构造分异石英脉岩锆石U-Pb年龄及其地质意义

滇西南团梁子岩组是南澜沧江构造带内重要的构造岩石单元之一,与兰坪-思茅盆地演化有密切联系。由于层序恢复困难和缺乏标志生物化石,该套岩石地层的时代归属缺乏有效约束。江桥团梁子岩组中基性脉岩和构造分异石英脉岩较为发育,在岩石学观察基础上,以绿片岩、辉长(绿)岩及与区域面理(S2)同期的构造分异石英脉岩为研究对象,借助激光剥蚀等离子体质谱(LA-ICP-MS)技术,对其中分选出的锆石开展了精确的U-Pb年龄测定。2件绿片岩样品31个锆石测点中存在4组206Pb/238U年龄,分别为1816~1542 Ma(加权平均为1630±210 Ma,N=6)、850~832 Ma(加权平均为844±95 Ma,N=2)、517~422 Ma(加权平均为438±26 Ma,N=4)和292~188Ma(加权平均为219.7±8.5 Ma,N=19)。2件辉长(绿)岩样品31个锆石测点中也存在4组206Pb/238U年龄,分别为2256~1357 Ma(加权平均为1646±160 Ma,N=16)、861~750 Ma(加权平均为773±92 Ma,N=2)、484~388 Ma(加权平均为433±38 Ma,N=6)和320~233 Ma(加权平均为253±16 Ma,N=7)。1件构造分异石英脉岩样品20个锆石测点中有3组206Pb/238U年龄,分别为1244±19 Ma(N=1)、430±5 Ma(N=1)和312~212 Ma(加权平均为229.6±6.7 Ma,N=18)。不同类型岩石中的各组锆石206Pb/238U加权平均年龄极为接近,代表了不同的地质意义,其中1646~1630 Ma可能代表了团梁子岩组原岩的形成年龄,而253~219 Ma可能代表了团梁子岩组在此时期受到构造热事件影响,该事件可能与古特提斯洋盆由西向东的俯冲消减作用有关。本次获得的绿片岩、基性脉岩及构造分异石英脉岩锆石U-Pb年龄将团梁子岩组时代约束为老于1630 Ma,即中元古代,可能属澜沧岩群的一部分。     

豫西矿集区幔枝构造约束下的小岩体成大矿

文章通过分析豫西地区的大量地质矿产资料后发现,区内存在"小岩体成大矿"的规律。认为豫西地区自燕山期以来,随着地幔热柱的演化,区内地壳运动转为伸展活动,地壳减薄、地幔不均衡上隆和中酸性岩浆脉动式上侵;中酸性岩浆脉动式上侵过程打通了深部成矿物质上升的通道,使得含矿流体能够到达地壳上部,并在幔枝构造外围主次级拆离带、岩体内外接触带、构造裂隙等适宜部位集聚成矿。     

柴北缘尕秀雅平东和红柳沟北镁铁-超镁铁质岩体锆石U-Pb年龄及其找矿意义

位于柴达木地块北缘构造带内欧龙布鲁克微陆块东缘的2个镁铁-超镁铁质岩体——含Cu-Ni的尕秀雅平东岩体和含Ti-Fe的红柳沟北岩体,前者的LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb年龄为408.0±1.5Ma,属早泥盆世;后者的SHRIMP锆石U-Pb年龄为418.3±2.8Ma,属晚志留世。区域地质资料研究表明,东昆仑地区、柴北缘在晚志留世—晚泥盆世处于后造山伸展阶段,尕秀雅平东岩体和红柳沟北岩体正是拉张环境下幔源岩浆活动的产物。在东昆仑地区、柴北缘发现的铜镍矿床和铜镍矿点(除夏日哈木有争议外)基本都形成于晚志留世—晚泥盆世。结合区域成矿年代学研究,认为晚志留世—晚泥盆世期间,东昆仑造山带和祁连造山带之间的柴达木地块、欧龙布鲁克微陆块,以及位于这两大造山带内部的微型古陆块区,是形成岩浆铜镍硫化物矿床和钛铁氧化物矿床的有利环境。     

浙江雁荡山火山-侵入杂岩的岩浆混合作用——暗色包体中长石环带的证据

浙江雁荡山是中国东南部燕山晚期巨型火山-侵入杂岩带的重要组成部分。对其中央侵入相石英正长斑岩的暗色微粒包体中的斑晶和基质斜长石进行了详细的内部结构和成分分析,揭示了斜长石复杂环带的成因和相关的岩浆作用过程。斑晶斜长石由熔蚀的核部和表面干净的幔部组成,边部包裹有钾长石膜。核部斜长石呈浑圆状或港湾状,内部发育筛状结构,An成分显著低于幔部斜长石,代表来自酸性岩浆房中早期结晶的斜长石捕掳晶。同时,幔部斜长石与自形、表面干净的基质斜长石具有类似的An含量,且两者均含有针状磷灰石的包裹体,应结晶自与暗色微粒包体相应的基性岩浆。长石的复杂结构记录了雁荡山火山-侵入杂岩形成过程中的岩浆混合作用和岩浆演化过程。岩浆混合之后的火山喷发活动,造成岩浆房的压力突然减小,温压条件达到钾长石结晶的区域,在石英正长斑岩的斑晶斜长石和暗色包体中的斑晶与基质斜长石外均形成钾长石膜,构成反环斑结构。     

Volcanism in the Vitim Volcanic Field, Siberia: Geochemical Evidence for a Mantle Plume Beneath the Baikal Rift Zone

The Baikal Rift is a zone of active lithospheric extension adjacentto the Siberian Craton. The 6–16 Myr old Vitim VolcanicField (VVF) lies approximately 200 km east of the rift axisand consists of 5000 km³ of melanephelinites, basanites, alkaliand tholeiitic basalts, and minor nephelinites. In the volcanicpile, 142 drill core samples were used to study temporal andspatial variations. Variations in major element abundances (e.g.MgO = 3·3–14·6 wt %) reflect polybaric fractionalcrystallization of olivine, clinopyroxene and plagioclase. ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr_i(0·7039–0·7049), ¹⁴³Nd/¹⁴⁴Nd_i (0·5127–0·5129)and ¹⁷⁶Hf/¹⁷⁷Hf_i (0·2829–0·2830) ratiosare similar to those for ocean island basalts and suggest thatthe magmas have not assimilated significant amounts of continentalcrust. Variable degrees of partial melting appear to be responsiblefor differences in Na₂O, P₂O₅, K₂O and incompatible trace elementabundances in the most primitive (high-MgO) magmas. Fractionatedheavy rare earth element (HREE) ratios (e.g. [Gd/Lu]_n > 2·5)indicate that the parental magmas of the Vitim lavas were predominantlygenerated within the garnet stability field. Forward major elementand REE inversion models suggest that the tholeiitic and alkalibasalts were generated by decompression melting of a fertileperidotite source within the convecting mantle beneath Vitim.Ba/Sr ratios and negative K anomalies in normalized multi-elementplots suggest that phlogopite was a residual mantle phase duringthe genesis of the nephelinites and basanites. Relatively highlight REE (LREE) abundances in the silica-undersaturated meltsrequire a metasomatically enriched lithospheric mantle source.Results of forward major element modelling suggest that meltingof phlogopite-bearing pyroxenite veins could explain the majorelement composition of these melts. In support of this, pyroxenitexenoliths have been found in the VVF. High Cenozoic mantle potentialtemperatures (1450°C) predicted from geochemical modellingsuggest the presence of a mantle plume beneath the Baikal RiftZone.
