Abstract— Chondrules in the Bali-like CV chondrite Kaba and the Allende-like portion of the Mokoia breccia have been studied to explore the relationship between hydrous alteration to form phyllosilicates and anhydrous alteration resulting in secondary olivine zonation, replacement of enstatite by ferroan olivine and formation of feldspathoids (nepheline and sodalite). All Kaba chondrules experienced extensive hydrous alteration; whereas, anhydrous alteration was minor and resulted only in the olivine zonation. On the other hand, all of the Mokoia chondrules experienced both extensive anhydrous and hydrous alteration. Bronzite rims formed between relic enstatite grains and phyllosilicates in both Kaba and Mokoia during the hydrous alteration. Petrographic observations indicate that phyllosilicates in Mokoia postdate formation of the secondary ferroan olivine and feldspathoids. We conclude that anhydrous alteration in Kaba and Mokoia predated hydrous alteration and took place before accretion of chondrules into the CV parent asteroid. 相似文献

The Pleistocene Ashigara Basin and adjacent Tanzawa Mountains, Izu collision zone, central Japan, are examined to better understand the development of an arc–arc orogeny, where the Izu–Bonin – Mariana (IBM) arc collides with the Honshu Arc. Three tectonic phases were identified based on the geohistory of the Ashigara Basin and the denudation history of the Tanzawa Mountains. In phase I, the IBM arc collided with the Honshu Arc along the Kannawa Fault. The Ashigara Basin formed as a trench basin, filled mainly by thin-bedded turbidites derived from the Tanzawa Mountains together with pyroclastics. The Ashigara Basin subsided at a rate of 1.7 mm/year, and the denudation rate of the Tanzawa Mountains was 1.1 mm/year. The onset of Ashigara Basin Formation is likely to be older than 2.2 Ma, interpreted as the onset of collision along the Kannawa Fault. Significant tectonic disruption due to the arc–arc collision took place in phase II, ranging from 1.1 to 0.7 Ma in age. The Ashigara Basin subsided abruptly (4.6 mm/year) and the accumulation rate increased to approximately 10 times that of phase I. Simultaneously, the Tanzawa Mountains were abruptly uplifted. A tremendous volume of coarse-grained detritus was provided from the Tanzawa Mountains and deposited in the Ashigara Basin as a slope-type fan delta. In phase III, 0.7–0.5 Ma, the entire Ashigara Basin was uplifted at a rate of 3.6 mm/year. This uplift was most likely caused by isostatic rebound resulting from stacking of IBM arc crust along the Kannawa Fault which is not active as the decollement fault by this time. The evolution of the Ashigara Basin and adjacent Tanzawa Mountains shows a series of the development of the arc–arc collision; from the subduction of the IBM arc beneath the Honshu Arc to the accretion of IBM arc crust onto Honshu. Arc–arc collision is not the collision between the hard crusts (massif) like a continent–continent collision, but crustal stacking of the subducting IBM arc beneath the Honshu Arc intercalated with very thick trench fill deposits. 相似文献

Abstract– High pressure phases majorite, possibly majorite‐pyropess, wadsleyite, and coesite are present in the matrix and in barred olivine fragments in the Gujba CB chondrite. Grossular‐pyrope was also observed in some small inclusions. The CB chondrites are metal‐rich meteorites with characteristics that sharply distinguish them from other chondrite groups. All of the CB chondrites contain impact melt regions interstitial to their chondrules, fragments and metal and a major impact event (or events), on the CB chondrite parent body is clearly a significant stage in its history. We studied three areas interstitial to chondrules and metal in the Gujba CBa chondrite. From Raman spectra, the barred olivine fragments and matrix in these regions have various combinations of olivine and low‐Ca pyroxene, as well as majorite garnet (Mg4Si4O12), a phase that forms by high‐pressure transformation of low‐Ca pyroxene and wadsleyite, a high pressure product of olivine. Compositions of the majorite suggest both majorite and majorite‐pyrope solid solution may be present. The mineral assemblage of majorite and wadsleyite suggest minimum shock pressures and temperatures of ~19 GPa and ~2000 °C, respectively. The occurrences of high pressure phases are variable from one area to another, on the scale of millimeters or less, suggesting heterogeneous distribution of shock and/or back transformation to low pressure polymorphs throughout the meteorite. The high pressure phases record a high temperature–pressure impact event that is superimposed onto, and thus postdates formation of, the chondrules and other components in the CB chondrites. The barred chondrules and metal in the CB chondrites are primary materials formed prior to the impact event either generated in an earlier planetesimal scale impact event or in the nebula. 相似文献

Pumice samples from Fukutoku-oka-no-ba in the Izu–Bonin – Mariana (IBM) arc were analysed for 40 trace elements and Sr, Nd, and Pb isotopic compositions. These samples are shoshonites (59.4–61.8 wt% SiO2 ), characterized by high contents of K2 O (3.74–4.64 wt%), Ba (1274–1540 p.p.m.), Rb (91–105 p.p.m.), and light rare earth elements. The characteristics of alkali-element enrichment are similar to those of other parts of the Alkalic Volcano Province (AVP) in the northern Mariana and southernmost Volcano arcs. Sr (87 Sr/86 Sr = 0.7036–0.7038) and Pb isotopic compositions (206 Pb/204 Pb = 19.08–19.11, 207 Pb/204 Pb = 15.62–15.63, 208 Pb/204 Pb = 38.85–38.91) of Fukutoku-oka-no-ba pumice are relatively radiogenic, whereas Nd is unradiogenic (143 Nd/144 Nd = 0.51283–0.51286). Fukutoku-oka-no-ba is isotopically distinct from Iwo Jima and is similar to the Hiyoshi Volcanic Complex, suggesting that Fukutoku-oka-no-ba might have a magma source similar to that of the Hiyoshi volcanic complex. Plots of Pb and Nd isotopes for AVP lavas trend toward the fields of ocean island basalt (OIB) source and pelagic sediments, which are possible sources of AVP enrichments. 相似文献

Abstract— Enstatite chondrites are classified into EH and EL groups, and some of them were melted once. In this paper, we report petrography and mineral chemistry of five new Antarctic enstatite chondrites. Yamato 793225 is characterized by intermediate properties between the EH and EL groups and probably represents a new grouplet of enstatite chondrites. The three paired meteorites (Y-8404, Y-8414 and Y-86004) may have cooled rapidly near the surface of the parent body as impact EH melt rocks. Yamato 82189 is also classified as EH melt rock, but it experienced slow cooling as did Y-793225. Yamato 82189 contains the first occurrence of phlogopite in enstatite meteorites. 相似文献

Abstract— Fassaite is a major component of Ca‐Al‐rich inclusions (CAIs) of Types B and C that crystallized from liquids. In contrast, this mineral is rarely reported in Type A inclusions and has been much less studied. In this paper, we report highly Ti‐, Al‐enriched fassaite that occurs as rims on perovskite in two compact Type A inclusions from the Ningqiang meteorite. In addition, one of the inclusions contains an euhedral grain of Sc‐fassaite (16.4 wt% Sc2O3) isolated in melilite. The occurrence and mineral chemistry of the fassaite rims can be explained by a reaction of pre‐existing perovskite with CAI melts. Hence, such rims may serve as an indicator for partial melting of Type A inclusions. The Sc‐fassaite is probably a relict grain. A third spherical CAI contains several euhedral grains of V‐fassaite (4.8–5.4 wt% V2O3) enclosed in a melilite fragment. The high V content of fassaite cannot be related to any Fremdlinge, magnetite, or metallic Fe‐Ni, because these phases are absent in the inclusion. In the same CAI, other fassaites intergrow with spinel and minor perovskite, filling voids inside of the melilite and space adjacent to the Wark‐Lovering rim. The fassaite intergrown with spinel is almost V‐free. The coexistence of two types of fassaite suggests that this CAI has not been completely melted. 相似文献

This study has defined five brachiopod assemblage zones within the Permian Kapp Starostin Formation of Festningen, Central West Spitsbergen. They are designated as the Horridonia timanica zone, the Waagenoconcha sp. A (Gobbett 1964) zone, the Megousia weyprechti zone, the Plerospirifer alatus zone and the Haydenella wilczeki zone in ascending order. Only the lower three zones are recognized in the same formation of Sveltihel.
The first zone, which is exactly equivalent to the 'Spirifer Limestone'as well as the Vøringcn Member of the Kapp Starostin Formation, is probably Kungurian in age. The last zone, situated near the uppermost portion of the Hovtinden Member, may possibly have a brachiopod assemblage matching that of the Cyclolobus -bearing beds of the Foldvik Creek Formation in Central East Greenland. Consequently, the uppermost beds of the Kapp Starostin Formation are chronologically dated as late Permian, most probably as Dzhulfian of the Tethys Province. 相似文献

Abstract— We report the results of our petrological and mineralogical study of Fe‐Ni metal in type 3 ordinary and CO chondrites, and the ungrouped carbonaceous chondrite Acfer 094. Fe‐Ni metal in ordinary and CO chondrites occurs in chondrule interiors, on chondrule surfaces, and as isolated grains in the matrix. Isolated Ni‐rich metal in chondrites of petrologic type lower than type 3.10 is enriched in Co relative to the kamacite in chondrules. However, Ni‐rich metal in type 3.15–3.9 chondrites always contains less Co than does kamacite. Fe‐Ni metal grains in chondrules in Semarkona typically show plessitic intergrowths consisting of submicrometer kamacite and Ni‐rich regions. Metal in other type 3 chondrites is composed of fine‐ to coarse‐grained aggregates of kamacite and Ni‐rich metal, resulting from metamorphism in the parent body. We found that the number density of Ni‐rich grains in metal (number of Ni‐rich grains per unit area of metal) in chondrules systematically decreases with increasing petrologic type. Thus, Fe‐Ni metal is a highly sensitive recorder of metamorphism in ordinary and carbonaceous chondrites, and can be used to distinguish petrologic type and identify the least thermally metamorphosed chondrites. Among the known ordinary and CO chondrites, Semarkona is the most primitive. The range of metamorphic temperatures were similar for type 3 ordinary and CO chondrites, despite them having different parent bodies. Most Fe‐Ni metal in Acfer 094 is martensite, and it preserves primary features. The degree of metamorphism is lower in Acfer 094, a true type 3.00 chondrite, than in Semarkona, which should be reclassified as type 3.01. 相似文献

Abstract— Many Ca-Al-rich inclusions (CAIs) were molten once, and the question of what their precursors consisted of is controversial. In this paper, we report a new type of anorthite-spinel-rich inclusion (ASI) in the Ningqiang carbonaceous chondrite. The modal and bulk compositions of the ASIs are similar to those of Type C inclusions but with nonmolten textures. The ASIs are proposed to be the precursors of Type C inclusions. The ASIs show alteration textures, with melilite being replaced by anorthite and Ca-pyroxene. Furthermore, compositions of the melilites and the calculated modal and bulk compositions of the possible precursors of the ASIs are close to those of the spinel-rich Type A inclusions in the Ningqiang meteorite, which suggests that ASIs formed by alteration of the latter in the solar nebula. Petrography and mineral chemistry of one Type C inclusion in Ningqiang are also reported. 相似文献

Abstract– CM chondrites were subjected to aqueous alteration and, in some cases, to secondary metamorphic heating. The effects of these processes vary widely, and have mainly been documented in silicate phases. Herein, we report the characteristic features of Fe‐Ni metal and sulfide phases in 13 CM and 2 CM‐related chondrites to explore the thermal history of these chondrites. The texture and compositional distribution of the metal in CM are different from those in unequilibrated ordinary and CO chondrites, but most have similarities to those in highly primitive chondrites, such as CH, CR, and Acfer 094. We classified the CM samples into three categories based on metal composition and sulfide texture. Fe‐Ni metal in category A is kamacite to martensite. Category B is characterized by pyrrhotite grains always containing blebs or lamellae of pentlandite. Opaque mineral assemblages of category C are typically kamacite, Ni‐Co‐rich metal, and pyrrhotite. These categories are closely related to the degree of secondary heating and are not related to degree of the aqueous alteration. The characteristic features of the opaque minerals can be explained by secondary heating processes after aqueous alteration. Category A CM chondrites are unheated, whereas those in category B experienced small degrees of secondary heating. CMs in category C were subjected to the most severe secondary heating process. Thus, opaque minerals can provide constraints on the thermal history for CM chondrites. 相似文献
