Abstract: | Al-F sphene (grothite) was found in mineralized rocks at the Berezitovoe Deposit in the Russian Far East. The paper is devoted
to the mineral assemblages and composition of the mineral and its thermodynamic crystallization conditions. The average Al
and F concentrations (p.f.u., microprobe data) in the grothite are 0.45 and 0.42 in sample 1374, 0.32 and 0.32 in sample 1306,
and 0.35 and 0.33 in sample 96. Grothite was found in the rocks in association with chlorite, ilmenite (pyrophanite), and
magnetite, and this mineral assemblage was obviously overprinted on the primary garnet-biotite assemblages. We estimated the
temperature of grothite crystallization at 400–500°C. With regard for available experimental data on the mineral equilibrium
between Al-F sphene, fluid, and anorthite, a tool is proposed for evaluating F concentrations in fluids by the equilibrium
of Al-F sphene with plagioclase, rutile, and F-bearing aqueous fluid. Our model simulations indicate that the maximum F concentration
in fluid during the crystallization of Al-F sphene richest in F at the temperatures and pressures of metasomatic rocks at
the Berezitovoe deposit could reach 300–500 mg per kg of the aqueous solution. The level of F concentration in the fluid during
the crystallization of Al-F sphene at the deposit is comparable with the F concentration in fluid during the development of
greisens and rare-metal pegmatites, but these high F concentrations were reached only during the final evolutionary stages
of the deposit. |
