摘要
The Baishidong iron deposit is the only skarn-type iron deposit discovered in the study area.According to mineral assemblage and paragenesis,the mineralization can be divided into four metallogenic stages:early garnet-diopside skarn stage,late magnetite-tremolite-epidote skarn stage,early quartz-pyrite-chalcopyrite stage and late quartz-calcite-pyrite stage.Through LA-ICP-MS zircon U-Pb dating of diorite,which is closely related to mineralization,the results show that the weighted average age is 164.6±1.4 Ma,which limits the mineralization time of Baishidong iron deposit during or slightly later than Middle Jurassic.The diorite rocks are rich in sodium(Na_(2)O/K_(2)O=1.24-1.76),aluminium(Al_(2)O_(3)=17.41%-18.76%),LREE and large-ion lithophile elements(Ba,K and Sr),depleted in HREE and high-field-strength elements(Y,Nb,Ta,P and Ti),and show strongly fractionated patterns(LREE/HREE=6.58-9.93),no apparent Eu anomalies(δEu=0.91-1.13),which shows similar characteristics to island arc or active continental margin arc magma.The zirconεHf(t)values range from-22.6 to 5.9,and the age of the two-stage model(t_(DM2))is 836-2633 Ma.Above data combined with the geochemical characteristics,it is indicated that the magma was a mixture of multiple sources,composed of ancient materials and newly formed crust.During the process of evolution and ascending of magma,separation and crystallization occurred,and a large amount of continental crust material was mixed at the same time.Combined with regional tectonic evolution,the formation of this deposit may be related to the westward subduction of the Paleo-Pacific Plate to the Eurasian Plate.
