摘要
More than twenty mafic-ultramafic complexes. which host several medium-or large-sized Cu-Ni deposits, occur along the Huangshan-Jingerquan (HJ ) belt in EastXinjiang. Rock types in these complexes are predominated by peridotite, pyroxene peri-dotite, olivine pyroxenite, gabbronorite, orthopyroxene gabbro, troctolite, gabbro anddiorite. The ultramafic rocks are relatively Fe-euriched and are characterised by an as-semblage of olivine + orthopyroxene + clinopyroxene + hornblend ±plagioclase withoutobvious metamorphic textures. Chemically these complexes are relatively Fe-enrichedand show a tholeiitic trend of evolution. The complexes in this belt are intruded underthe extensional environment in a Mid-Carboniferous back-arc basin. They call be consid-ered as a new type of mafic-ultramafic complexes in orogenic belts, as designated by thename of the East-Xinjiang-type complexes.
