They arc potassic lamprophyre, not lamproites as the previous researchers believed. In this study, the whole-rock major and trace element compositions of another 6 lamproite dykes recently discovered are reported. Major elements were determined by X-ray fluorescence spectrometry （XRF） techniques, while REE and trace elements were determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry （ICP-MS）. They can be classified into phlogopite-diopside lamprophyre, leucite-diopside lamprophyre and granular carbonatite-bearing diopside lamprophyre on the basis of their mineral components. They are all characterized by relatively low SiO2 （41.31% --44. 84% ）, TIO2 （0.75%-0.86% ） and high MgO （7.30%-11.33%）, K2O （4.01%-6.01%） concentrations with K2O/Na2O ratios of 2.77-12.49. In addition, they display enrichment in large-ion lithophile elements （LILEs, e. g., Rb, Sr, Ba） and LREE, but a relative depletion in high-field-strength elements （HFSEs, e.g. , Nb, Ta, Zr, Hf and Ti）. They display similar chondrite-normalized REE patterns with slight negative Eu anomalies （δEu=0.64-0.82）, and high initial ^87 Sr/^86Sr ratios, which resemble those of high K/Ti and Iow-Ti potassic magmas formed in subduction-related settings. Consequently, we suggest that the parental magma was generated by partial melting of the phlogopite-amphibole-bearing garnet lherzolite within the lithospheric mantle that might have been metasomatized by a potassium-bearing fluid released from a sabdaction oceanic crust.展开更多
