内蒙古敖汉旗克力代岩体锆石U-Pb年代及地球化学

通过LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb测年对内蒙古敖汉旗克力代岩体进行研究。结果表明,岩浆锆石的加权平均年龄为263±1 Ma,表明其结晶年龄为中二叠世。岩石地球化学分析表明,岩体具有高Si(SiO2=69.94%～72.56%),富ALK(Na2O+K2O=8.04%～9.23%),贫Fe(FeOT=1.50%～1.82%)、Mg(MgO=0.65%～0.86%)、Ti(TiO2=0.32%～0.35%)的特点;A/CNK值为0.87～0.93,为准铝质;A/NKC1.1,显示出I型花岗岩特征。固结指数(SI)为6.06～7.36,分异指数(DI)为88.82～91.82,说明岩体经历了较强的分异演化作用。稀土元素总量较低(ΣREE=91.76×10-6～143.16×10-6),轻稀土明显富集,重稀土相对亏损,LREE/HREE值平均为9.14,(La/Yb)N平均值为8.36,δEu平均值为0.58,为Eu亏损型。大离子亲石元素(LILE)Rb、K较富集,强烈亏损高场强元素(HFSE)Nb、Ti、Ta。因此,判定克力代岩体为高钾钙碱性I型花岗岩。结合测年结果和地球化学特征,判定该岩体为晚海西期华北板块和西伯利亚板块碰撞作用形成的同碰撞型花岗岩。     

135~130 Ma: 大别山第二次“去根”时间？

大别杂岩主要由早白垩世侵入岩和三叠纪变质岩组成。它的四周是四条区域性韧性剪切带:郯城—庐江断裂,商城—麻城断裂,襄樊—广济断裂和晓天—磨子潭断裂。其中,晓天—磨子潭断裂和襄樊—广济断裂在早白垩世具有相反的走滑剪切方向:北侧的边界断裂(晓天—磨子潭断裂)是一个左行剪切断裂,而南侧的边界断裂(襄樊—广济断裂)是一个右行剪切断裂。在大别杂岩内部,早白垩世低角度剪切面理的倾伏向以SE向或NW向为主。这些晚期剪切面理上的拉伸线理的倾伏向同样为SE或NW向。大别杂岩总体具有朝SE向挤出和顶部相对朝NW向剪切的构造特征。这些表明晚中生代是该杂岩演化的重要阶段。该杂岩的边界断裂和内部构造特征指示其晚期抬升是沿造山带方向(SE—NW)以低角度方式进行的。这一过程直接导致高压-超高压变质岩和同构造岩浆岩被抬升至近地表。同时,年代学研究表明:大别杂岩(扬子板块东北缘地壳)在晚侏罗世—早白垩世经历大规模混合岩化的时间为145~135 Ma,同造山岩浆作用的时间为145~135 Ma,后造山火山-岩浆活动的时间为135~120 Ma。因此,该杂岩中三叠纪高压-超高压变质岩所记录的早白垩世抬升过程不是印支事件的后续,而是燕山期陆内造山及随后发生的伸展过程有关。尽管这一陆内造山事件的起始时间至今仍不确定,但大别山未变形岩体(130~120 Ma)的年代学研究结果和我们新测得的同构造伟晶岩脉的锆石U-Pb年龄(130 Ma)为早白垩地壳变形提供了良好的上限制约。这样,大别山经历了三叠纪碰撞造山和伸展,晚侏罗世—早白垩世陆内造山-伸展二次过程。

粤北大瑶山地区前泥盆纪地层中的火山岩特征及LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb年龄

通过1︰5万地质填图及剖面测制,作者在粤北大瑶山地区的震旦-寒武纪地层中首次发现多层火山岩,岩性主要为火山-沉积碎屑岩类的变质凝灰质不等粒岩屑石英砂岩、变质凝灰质不等粒长石石英砂岩、沉凝灰岩等,局部见变流纹质熔结凝灰岩。对变流纹质熔结凝灰岩、变质凝灰质砂岩用LA-ICP-MS法测定锆石U-Pb年龄,206Pb/238U年龄介于614~2869 Ma之间,年龄值较为分散,说明碎屑锆石是多来源的。火山岩年龄数据与地层时代归属矛盾,粤北大瑶山地区前泥盆纪地层的时代归属值得进一步探讨。     

冀北承德盆地九龙山组凝灰岩夹层LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb定年及其地质意义

冀北承德盆地中生代侏罗纪地层序列较齐全,但作为关键层位之一的九龙山组一直缺乏高精度年代学的约束。笔者首次对九龙山组凝灰岩夹层进行了LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb高精度定年,获得凝灰岩中岩浆锆石206Pb/238U加权平均年龄164.1±1.3 Ma。综合研究及对比表明,九龙山组的时限为158~164Ma,属中侏罗世晚期至晚侏罗世早期,对应于国际地层表的牛津期至卡洛维期,其沉积时间相对短暂。在此基础上,更新了研究区侏罗系年代地层柱状图,该认识对于深入研究燕山地区中生代侏罗纪地层格架及构造岩浆演化过程具有重要意义。     

Early Paleozoic tectonic evolution of the Xing-Meng Orogenic Belt: Constraints from detrital zircon geochronology of western Erguna–Xing’an Block,North China

To better constrain the Early Paleozoic tectonic evolution of the western part of the Erguna–Xing’an Block, detrital zircon U–Pb dating was applied on the Ordovician to Devonian sedimentary strata along the southeast part of the China–Mongolia border. Most of the zircons from five sedimentary samples display fine-scale oscillatory growth zoning and Th/U ratios higher than 0.1, indicating a magmatic origin. All five Ordovician–Devonian samples display the similar age distribution patterns with age groups at ∼440 Ma, ∼510 Ma, ∼800 Ma, ∼950 Ma, and few Meso- to Paleo-Proterozoic and Neoarchean grains. This age distribution pattern is similar to those from adjacent blocks in the southeastern Central Asian Orogenic Belt. Considering previous tectonic studies, we propose bidirectional provenances from the Erguna–Xing’an Block and Baolidao Arc.Consequently, a new model was proposed to highlight the Early Paleozoic tectonic evolution of the western Erguna–Xing’an Block, which constrains two main Early Paleozoic tectonic events of the Xing-Meng Orogenic Belt: (a) pre-Late Cambrian collision between Erguna–Kerulen Block and Arigin Sum-Xilinhot-Xing’an Block; (b) the Early Paleozoic subduction of Paleo-Asian Ocean and pre-Late Devonian collision between Erguna–Xing’an Block and Songliao-Hunshandake Block.     

Provenance of Oligocene–Miocene sediments in the Subei area,eastern Altyn Tagh fault and its geological implications: Evidence from detrital zircons LA-ICP-MS U–Pb chronology

Oligocene–Miocene strata in the Subei and Xiaobiegai basins of the Subei area, located in the eastern Altyn Tagh fault (ATF), northern Tibetan Plateau, record important characteristics of the ATF evolution. Detrital zircons laser ablation-inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) U–Pb ages from two samples, together with paleocurrent directions and clastic composition in the Xishuigou section demonstrate that sediments in the Subei basin originated from the Danghenanshan range along its southern margin. Detrital zircons U–Pb ages from three samples in the Xiaobiegai basin, together with paleocurrent directions and clastic composition, indicate that sediments in the Xiaobiegai basin may partly originate from terranes along the northeastern margin of the basin in addition to the Danghenanshan range. Our results, combined with regional evolution, suggest that the Xiaobiegai and the Subei basins was a combined basin in Oligocene–early Miocene. This basin was folded, tilted, and dislocated at ca. 8 Ma by rapid uplift of the northern Tibetan plateau and rapid strike-slip of the ATF. As a result, the Subei basin became a thrust–fold belt of the Danghenanshan range front, and the Xiaobiegai basin grew into an intermontane basin in the northeastern part of the Danghenanshan range. Thus, the Subei area gradually acquired its present morphotectonic patterns.     

Petrology,geochemistry and geochronology of the magmatic suite from the Jianzha Complex,central China: Petrogenesis and geodynamic implications

The intermediate–mafic–ultramafic rocks in the Jianzha Complex (JZC) at the northern margin of the West Qinling Orogenic Belt have been interpreted to be a part of an ophiolite suite. In this study, we present new geochronological, petrological, geochemical and Sr–Nd–Hf isotopic data and provide a different interpretation. The JZC is composed of dunite, wehrlite, olivine clinopyroxenite, olivine gabbro, gabbro, and pyroxene diorite. The suite shows characteristics of Alaskan-type complexes, including (1) the low CaO concentrations in olivine; (2) evidence of crystal accumulation; (3) high calcic composition of clinopyroxene; and (4) negative correlation between FeO^tot and Cr₂O₃ of spinels. Hornblende and phlogopite are ubiquitous in the wehrlites, but minor orthopyroxene is also present. Hornblende and biotite are abundant late crystallized phases in the gabbros and diorites. The two pyroxene-bearing diorite samples from JZC yield zircon U–Pb ages of 245.7 ± 1.3 Ma and 241.8 ± 1.3 Ma. The mafic and ultramafic rocks display slightly enriched LREE patterns. The wehrlites display moderate to weak negative Eu anomalies (0.74–0.94), whereas the olivine gabbros and gabbros have pronounced positive Eu anomalies. Diorites show slight LREE enrichment, with (La/Yb)_N ratios ranging from 4.42 to 7.79, and moderate to weak negative Eu anomalies (Eu/Eu¹ = 0.64–0.86). The mafic and ultramafic rocks from this suite are characterized by negative Nb–Ta–Zr anomalies as well as positive Pb anomalies. Diorites show pronounced negative Ba, Nb–Ta and Ti spikes, and typical Th–U, K and Pb peaks. Combined with petrographic observations and chemical variations, we suggest that the magmatism was dominantly controlled by fractional crystallization and crystal accumulation, with limited crustal contamination. The arc-affinity signature and weekly negative to moderately positive ε_Nd(t) values (−2.3 to 1.2) suggest that these rocks may have been generated by partial melting of the juvenile sub-continental lithospheric mantle that was metasomatized previously by slab-derived fluids. The lithologies in the JZC are related in space and time and originated from a common parental magma. Geochemical modeling suggests that their primitive parental magma had a basaltic composition. The ultramafic rocks were generated through olivine accumulation, and variable degrees of fractional crystallization with minor crustal contamination produced the diorites. The data presented here suggest that the subduction in West Qinling did not cease before the early stage of the Middle Triassic (∼242 Ma), a back-arc developed in the northern part of West Qinling during this period, and the JZC formed within the incipient back-arc.     

大兴安岭地区嫩北农场一带晚古生代火山岩地层的厘定

大兴安岭嫩北农场一带出露一套以中酸性火山熔岩为主的晚古生代地层.前人对这套地层划分、时代归属存有很大分歧.原因是:一方面区域上火山岩出露厚度大、露头不连续、区域植被茂盛,顶底多为断层接触或被第四系所覆盖;另一方面由于存在于火山岩地层中的化石较少或缺少精确的同位素年代学数据.本文在新近研究成果的基础上,依据地层岩石组合对比及锆石U-Pb年代学资料,将这套晚古生代地层进行了重新厘定为大石寨组.
