鲁乐地区早前寒武纪花岗岩类演化及大陆地壳生长

通过对太古宙和古元古代花岗岩成分判别分析,提出了鲁东地区早前寒武纪花岗岩类可能分为3期,第一期为中太古代TTG组合,发育不完全;第二期为新太古代T1T2G1组合,具有贫K2O的奥长花岗岩演化趋势;第三期为古元古代早期G2组合,仅具富K2O的钙碱性演化趋势。探讨了不同组合花岗岩的形成环境,新太古代T2T2G1组合为岛弧环境,古元古代早期为大陆碰撞环境;不同的花岗岩类岩石组合分别对应的陆壳成熟度为：T1T2G1组合为新生的初始不成熟陆壳,G2组合则为最终的成熟陆壳。鲁东早前寒武纪花岗岩类随时间从新太古代至古元古代早期的演化,记录了鲁东大陆地壳形成的完整的地质演化过程。

“江南造山带”变质基底形成的构造环境及演化特征

"江南造山带"变质基底的形成和演化长期存在不同认识。本文试图通过区域地层对比、火山—沉积组合、构造变形特征,大量新的测年数据以及淡色花岗岩(MPG)和含堇青石花岗闪长岩(CPG)等岩体的分布及产出的构造环境分析,再次探讨"江南造山带"变质基底的构造环境和演化特征。笔者等认为"江南造山带"变质基底的形成和演化与1.1～0.9Ga的"格林威尔运动"无关,它是Rodinia超大陆裂解后的不同陆块(如扬子陆块、华夏陆块等)的大陆边缘沉积,经830～780Ma之晋宁运动期碰撞造山,进而构成新元古代中—晚期扬子古陆新的増生大陆边缘。晋宁期碰撞造山的特征是:在时间演化方面经历了早期初始强烈碰撞、挤压变形—松弛拉张接受不同规模裂陷盆地或裂谷火山—碎屑沉积—终期再碰撞演化过程;在空间变化方面则显示为构造环境的多样性。以湘、赣边界剪切断裂带和鄱阳湖—赣江剪切断裂带为界,形成三种不同的构造环境。湘黔桂代表的西部区段和赣西北代表的中部区段均为被动大陆边缘的陆—陆对接碰撞构造环境。但二者在挤压和拉张强度和规模的差别,导致两区段构造形态的不同。赣皖浙东部区段为活动大陆边缘具多列岛弧及弧后盆地的洋—陆俯冲—碰撞构造环境。     

内蒙古苏右旗毕力赫金矿区安山岩LA-ICP-MS锆石 U-Pb年龄、元素地球化学特征及其形成的构造环境

毕力赫大型斑岩型金矿位于华北克拉通北缘早古生代增生造山带。矿区出露一套岩性为安山岩-英安岩-流纹岩的火山岩组合,安山岩属于亚碱性、高钾钙碱性系列,具有较高的MgO含量(2.05%~10.29%), 低的FeO^T/MgO比值和TiO₂含量(0.21%~0.85%);Cr (44×10^-6~473×10^-6)、Ni (19.3×10^-6~249.4×10^-6)含量高,亏损Nb、Ta、Ti、P,无或弱的Eu/Eu^*异常,具有安底斯型活动大陆边缘火山岩特征。LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb测年获得安山岩和安山质凝灰岩成岩年龄分别为281±4.3Ma和281±12Ma,为早二叠世,这与毕力赫金矿成矿年代以及与成矿有关的花岗闪长斑岩结晶年龄一致,表明了矿区成岩-成矿作用与晚古生代华北板块与西伯利亚板块之间俯冲-造山作用有关,指示华北克拉通北缘寻找晚古生代浅成低温-斑岩型金(铜)矿具有巨大潜力。火山岩以及与成矿相关侵入岩出现U-Pb年龄为1.8Ga、2.0Ga和2.4Ga的古老继承性锆石,暗示矿区存在华北克拉通基底,古老变质基底岩石可能是制约本区金矿成矿主要因素之一。     

三江特提斯叠加成矿作用样式及过程

三江地区经历了特提斯洋的多期洋-陆俯冲和新生代以来的陆-陆碰撞;成矿主要集中在大洋生长与俯冲造山阶段以及碰撞造山主碰撞向晚碰撞的转换阶段,控制了区域喜马拉雅期斑岩型铜金矿带、沉积岩容矿型铅锌多金属矿带与造山型金矿带等。在不同时期构造环境作用下,在矿田与矿床范围内形成了复杂多样的叠加成矿作用。叠加成矿作用可划分为3种类型及9种方式:(1)VMS-岩浆热液叠加型。包括喜马拉雅期岩浆热液型矿体叠加海西期-燕山期"VMS型"矿体(老厂式Pb-Zn-Mo矿床和鲁春式Cu-Pb-Zn矿床),印支/燕山期岩浆热液型矿体叠加海西期VMS型矿体的羊拉式Cu-Mo-Pb-Zn矿床;(2)沉积-热液叠加型。包括喜马拉雅期岩浆热液型矿体叠加燕山期沉积矿源层的白秧坪式Cu-Pb-Zn矿床,喜马拉雅期建造热液型Ge矿体叠加沉积煤层的大寨/中寨式Ge矿床,燕山期岩浆热液叠加加里东期分水岭式Fe-Cu矿床;(3)多期热液叠加型。主要为喜马拉雅期与印支期两期叠加成矿作用的老王寨床式Au矿床,燕山期叠加印支期普朗-红山式Cu矿床,喜马拉雅期多期次叠加的金满Cu矿床。叠加成矿作用增加矿床的资源储量,丰富了矿种类型;但是现在仅有部分年代学与矿田-矿床尺度地质现象的某些证据,叠加矿床的矿体-矿石结构特征、形成条件与地球化学及矿物学约束仍有待于进一步研究。     

Collision‐related granite magma genesis,potential sources and tectono‐magmatic evolution: comparison between central,northwestern and western Anatolia (Turkey)

The central, northwestern and western Anatolian magmatic provinces are defined by a large number of late Mesozoic to late Cenozoic collision‐related granitoids. Calc‐alkaline, subalkaline and alkaline intrusive rocks in central Anatolia are mainly metaluminous, shoshonitic, I‐ to A‐types. They cover a petrological range from monzodiorite through quartz monzonite to granite/syenite, and are all enriched in LILE. Their geochemical characteristics are consistent with formation from a subduction‐modified mantle source. Calc‐alkaline plutonic rocks in northwestern Anatolia are mainly metaluminous, medium‐ to high‐K and I‐types. They are monzonite to granite, and all are enriched in LILE and depleted in HFSE, showing features of arc‐related intrusive rocks. Geochemical data reveal that these plutons were derived from partial melting of mafic lower crustal sources. Calc‐alkaline intrusive rocks in western Anatolia are metaluminous, high‐K and I‐types. They have a compositional range from granodiorite to granite, and are enriched in LILE and depleted in HFSE. Geochemical characteristics of these intrusive rocks indicate that they could have originated by the partial melting of mafic lower crustal source rocks.     

H2O content of deep-seated orogenic continental crust: the Ulten Zone,Italian Alps

To estimate the amount of H₂O stored at lower crustal levels after burial, we considered the pile of migmatitic paragneisses in the Variscan Ulten Zone as a case study area. We constructed a pseudosection in the system K₂O-Na₂O-CaO-FeO-MnO-MgO-Al₂O₃-SiO₂-TiO₂-H₂O for an average paragneiss, a relevant prograde PT path (8.5 kbar, 600°C; 11.5 kbar, 750°C; 14.0 kbar, 1000°C) and H₂O contents between 0 and 10 wt.%. Based on an assemblage of garnet?+?biotite?+?white mica?+?kyanite?+?20–30 vol.% former melt (now represented mainly by leucosomes composed of plagioclase?+?quartz), a bulk H₂O content of 3.2 ± 1.1 wt.% was estimated for a peak temperature ranging between 770 and 800°C. Before melting, somewhat less than 1.8 wt.% H₂O was stored in minerals. Thus, a considerable amount of H₂O must have either resided in pore spaces along grain boundaries or, much less likely, infiltrated the paragneisses from below. Evidently, significant quantities of H₂O as a free phase may be stored in buried sialic crust, resulting in considerable melting of deep-seated rocks during continent–continent collision.     

Geology and ages of porphyry and medium- to high-sulphidation epithermal gold deposits of the continental margin of Northeast China

The continental margin of Northeast China, an important part of the continental margin-related West Pacific metallogenic belt, hosts numerous types of gold-dominated mineral deposits. Based on ore deposit geology and isotopic dating, we have classified hydrothermal gold–copper ore deposits in this region into four distinct types: (1) gold-rich porphyry copper deposits, (2) gold-rich porphyry-like copper deposits, (3) medium-sulphidation epithermal copper–gold deposits, and (4) high-sulphidation epithermal gold deposits. These ore deposits formed during four distinct metallogenic stages or periods, at 123.6 ± 2.5 Ma, 110–104 Ma, 104–102 Ma, and 95.0 ± 2 Ma, corresponding to periods of Cretaceous intermediate–acid volcanism and late-stage emplacement of hypabyssal magmas along the northern margin of the North China platform. The earliest stage of mineralization (123.6 ± 2.5 Ma) corresponds to the formation of medium-sulphidation epithermal copper – gold deposits and was associated with a continental margin magmatic arc system linked to subduction of the Pacific Plate beneath the Eurasia. This metallogenesis is closely related to high-K calc-alkaline intermediate–acid granite and pyroxene – diorite porphyry magmatism. The second and third stages of mineralization in the study area (110–104 Ma and 104–102 Ma, respectively) correspond to the formation of gold-rich porphyry copper, porphyry-like copper, and high-sulphidation gold deposits, with metallogenesis closely related to sodic or adakitic magmatism. These magmas formed in a continental margin magmatic arc system related to oblique subduction of the Pacific Plate beneath the Eurasia, as well as mixing of crust-derived remelted granitic and mantle-derived adakitic magmas. During the final stage of mineralization (95.0 ± 2 Ma), metallogenesis was closely related to sodic or adakitic magmatism, with diagenesis and metallogenesis related to the disintegration or destruction of the Pacific Plate, which was subducted beneath the Eurasian Plate during the Mesozoic.     

The Longmala and Mengya’a skarn Pb–Zn deposits,Gangdese region,Tibet: evidence from U–Pb and Re–Os geochronology for formation during early India–Asia collision

The Longmala and Mengya’a deposits are two representative skarn Pb–Zn deposits of the Nyainqêntanglha Pb–Zn–(Cu–Mo–Ag) polymetallic belt in the Gangdese region, Tibet, China. Laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) zircon U–Pb dating of the mineralization-related biotite monzogranite from the Longmala deposit yielded a weighted mean age of 55.7 Ma, which can be interpreted as the emplacement age of the pluton. Re–Os dating of three molybdenite samples from the Longmala deposit yielded model ages of 51.8–54.3 Ma, with a weighted mean age of 53.3 Ma, which is interpreted as the mineralization age of the deposit and overlaps the age of the causative intrusion. The Re–Os dating of four molybdenite samples from the Mengya’a deposit yielded model ages of 60.4–65.8 Ma, with a weighted mean age of 63.6 Ma, which represents the mineralization age of this deposit. Our new precise age data for these two deposits are consistent with the existing ages of ca. 65–51 Ma for other skarn polymetallic deposits in the Nyainqêntanglha metallogenic belt. In addition, these new age data, combined with existing information on the geological evolution history of the Lhasa terrane, indicate that the belt of skarn deposits is closely related to initial collision between India and the Asian continents.     

Petrology and geochronology of ultrahigh-pressure granitic gneiss from South Dulan,North Qaidam belt,NW China

abstract

An integrated study including petrography, mineral chemistry, metamorphic P–T path modelling, and zircon U–Pb dating was conducted on a granitic gneiss and enclosed eclogite from South Dulan, North Qaidam UHP (ultrahigh-pressure) belt. The result shows that the granitic gneiss underwent a clockwise P–T path with a peak-P stage at 655–745°C, 30–34 kbar, and a subsequent peak-T stage at 815–870°C, 14–18 kbar, which is similar to the P–T estimates reported for coesite-bearing continental-type eclogites in this region. The enclosed eclogite resembles an olivine–pyroxene-rich cumulate in Qaidam block. It has a similar prograde P–T path with the country gneiss and experienced a peak-P stage of 682–748°C at 27–34 kbar. Zircon U–Pb dating yields an eclogite-facies metamorphic age of 447 ± 2 Ma for the granitic gneiss and 445 ± 6 Ma for the enclosed eclogite. These ages agree with metamorphic ages obtained from paragneisses (427–439 Ma), coesite-bearing continental-type eclogites (430–451 Ma), and UHPM (ultrahigh-pressure metamorphic) oceanic crust–mantle sequence (440–445 Ma) from South Dulan, as well as UHP eclogites, garnet peridotite, and gneisses from other units (460–420 Ma) within this belt reported by others. Similar metamorphic ages as well as P–T evolution documented in gneisses and intercalated eclogites imply that both rocks experienced a coeval UHP event. Summarizing all the published geochronology data, we argue that the North Qaidam UHP belt was mainly formed by continental deep subduction at ~460 to ~420 Ma. The UHPM oceanic crust-mantle sequence in South Dulan may represent oceanic lithosphere in the transition zone between oceanic and continental crust, which was dragged upward by the exhumed continental rocks after break-off of the dense oceanic crust.
