摘要
The Maomaogou nepheline syenite is located at the inner zone of the Emeishan large igneous province and exhibits intrusive contact with the Emeishan basalts. SHRIMP U-Pb dating on zircons from this syenite yields an age of 261.6±4.4 Ma, in agreement with the age of the Panzhihua layered intrusion and the eruption age of the Emeishan basalts as constrained by stratigraphic data. Geochemical data fur-ther suggest that the Maomaogou syenite has a source analogue to the Emeishan basalt, and may have been formed by partial melting of gabbroic cumulates underplated in the lower crust. As s result, tem-poral and spatial relationships and petrogenetic constraints provide evidence for the genetic link be-tween basalts, mafic/ultramafic and intermediate/acidic intrusives in the Panxi area.

Geochemical data further suggest that the Maomaogou syenite has a source analogue to the Emeishan basalt, and may have been formed by partial melting of gabbroic cumulates underplated in the lower crust. As s result, temporal and spatial relationships and petrogenetic constraints provide evidence for the genetic link between basalts, mafic/ultramafic and intermediate/acidic intrusives in the Panxi area.
