Abstract: | This paper reports the compositions of granitoids from the Alyarmaut Uplift in the western Chukchi Peninsula, which is interpreted
as a granite-metamorphic dome. A postcollisional origin was inferred for the granitoids. Their petrographic composition, petrochemical
characteristics, and the compositions of their biotite allowed us to assign them to high-K I-type granites. The trace-element
composition of the granitoids is comparable with that of granite types associating with both collisional and suprasubduction
settings, which may reflect magma source heterogeneity generated by previous collisional processes predating dome and granite
formation. The significant scatter of ɛNd(T) and 87Sr/86Sr values in the granitoids is also indicative of the heterogeneous composition of the crustal source or variable degree of
magma contamination with ancient crustal material. In addition to the dominant process of the submersion of the rim of the
Chukchi microcontinent beneath the active margin of the North Asian craton, the tectonic scenario of the formation of the
dome structure of the Alyarmaut Uplift should involve either slab detachment or delamination of the lithospheric mantle, which
causes the invasion of asthenospheric material into the base of the crust and promotes heat transfer necessary for the derivation
of granitoid magmas. |
