摘要
Igneous topazites found recently in South China are closely associated with F-rich granites in time and space. They have a typical igneous porphyritic texture. The phenocrysts are topaz and quartz, while the groundmass consists mainly of prismatic or acicular topaz microlites and anhedral quartz. Compared with granites, topazites are rich in SiO2 (65.06%-81.12% ) and Al2O3 (13.01%-18.09%) but poor in MgO and Na2O and strongly peraluminous with A/NKC = 3.204-37.313. Geochemically, the rocks are evidently depleted in Sr and Ba, but enriched in Sn, W, Nb and F. The concentrations of Sn and partial W in the topazites are 1-2 orders of magnitude higher than the average of acid rocks. The F-riched granites related to the topazites in the area usually have much higher ISr (0.7103-0.7460) and δ18OQ‰ (9.5-14.24), but lower INdCT) (-4.8- 9.4). It suggests that the topazite is similar to S-type granites in genesis. Hydroxylated silicate melt inclusions, consisting of several grains of quartz and aqueous fluids, have been found in the quartz phenocrysts. The entrapment temperature of these inclusions is about 520℃.
