福建平潭-东山变质带夕线石榴云母片岩中两期变质作用的岩相学证据及其构造意义

通过对福建沿海平潭－东山变质带中夕线石榴云母片岩的岩相学和变质作用特征的研究，讨论了该区变质作用的演化历史，为地质学家建立该区乃至整个东南部的构造演化模式提供科学的依据。研究表明，石榴夕线云母片岩实际上是两期变质作用叠加的产物，其中的石榴石、夕线石和黑云母等是第一期变质作用的产物，代表古老变质基底（泥质）的残余，而白云母和大部分石英（白云母石英片岩）则是在第二期变质作用（中生代区域变质）期间由前述变质基底改造而成。也就是说，在人们熟知的绿片岩相－低角闪岩相区域变质作用之前，还曾发生一期更高级的变质作用。第一期变质作用的条件为Ｐ＝０．５５～０．６２ＧＰａ，Ｔ＝６９２℃～７１７℃，达高角闪岩相；第二期变质作用在本区影响最大，并形成递增变质带，变质作用的温度和压力范围分别是Ｐ＝０．２～０．５ＧＰａ，Ｔ＝４００℃～５６０℃，属中低级变质。早期高级变质残余的发现使我们不得不重新考虑福建沿海变质带的变质演化与构造演化的过程。

Pre-orogenic upper crustal softening by lower greenschist facies metamorphic reactions in granites of the central Pyrenees

Pre-kinematic greenschist facies metamorphism is often observed in granites and basement units of mountain belts, but rarely dated and accounted for in orogenic cycle reconstructions. Studying pre-kinematic alteration is challenging because of its usual obliteration by subsequent syn-kinematic metamorphism often occurring at conditions typical of the brittle–ductile transition. It is, however, to be expected that pre-kinematic alteration has major implications for the rheology of the upper crust. In the 305 Ma-old Variscan basement of the Bielsa massif (located in the Axial Zone of the Pyrenees), successive fluid–rock interaction events are recorded in granites below 350°C. Combined microstructural and petrographic analysis, low-T thermobarometry and in situ U–Th/Pb dating of anatase, titanite and monazite show extensive pre-orogenic (pre-Alpine) and pre-kinematic alteration related to feldspar sericitization and chloritization of biotite and amphibole at temperatures of 270–350°C at 230–300 Ma. This event is followed by a second fluid–rock interaction stage marked by new crystallization of phyllosilicates at 200–280°C and is associated with the formation of mylonitic shear zones and fractures parallel to the shear planes. U–Pb anatase and monazite ages as well as the microtextural relationships of accessory minerals suggest an age for this event at 40–70 Ma, consistent with independent regional geology constraints. The Variscan basement was therefore softened at late to post-Variscan time, at least 150–200 Ma before the main Alpine shortening while Alpine-age compression (c. 35–50 Ma) leads to the formation of a dense net of mylonites. The associated deformation, both distributed at the scale of the Bielsa massif and localized at decametric scale in mylonitic corridors, precedes the strain localization along the major thrusts of the Axial Zone. The Bielsa massif is a good example where inherited, pre-orogenic upper crustal softening controls the deformation patterns in granitic basement units through low-grade metamorphic reactions.     

Modelling white mica pressure‐temperature‐time (P‐T‐t) paths using thermobarometric and 40Ar/39Ar thermochronologic data

White micas are major rock forming minerals in igneous and metamorphic rocks, and their chemical and isotopic variations can be used to determine pressure, temperature and time (P‐T‐t) histories. We apply ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar multi‐diffusion domain modelling to white micas from blueschists blocks in serpentinite matrix mélange from the exhumed Baja California subduction complex. Thermal history models yielded T‐t paths suggesting that ⁴⁰Ar* resides within multiple diffusion domains with varying ⁴⁰Ar* retentivity. Modelled white mica thermal histories and thermobarometric data were used to forward model continuous P‐T‐t paths. P‐T‐t paths are consistent with previous studies and are interpreted to constrain blueschist block exhumation paths within the Baja accretionary wedge. Our P‐T‐t models use temperature controlled ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar step heat data in which argon loss by volume diffusion can be demonstrated, and for which the white mica petrogenesis is known.
