We selected two representative samples for geochemical analysis （major and trace elements）, and twenty-two zircon grains for zircon dating. Isoplot （ver3.0） was used to calculate isotopic age and make concordia diagrams. This study shows that the trachy porphyry dykes, featuring low concentration of A1203, CaO, MgO and high alkali contents, are metaluminous alkaline rock and belong to A-type granitoids. The dykes have low concentration of the REE and incompatible elements, and the REE patterns show clear negative Eu anomalies （6Eu=0.74-0.58）, enriched LREE （LREE/HREE〉4, （La/Yb）N=5.97-4.63） and undifferentiated HREEs. Similar normalized REE and in- compatible element patterns are also showed in the dykes from Yemaquan （野马泉） and granites from Ulungur, suggesting that they are possibly originated from the same source and formed in the same tectonic environment, but the trachy porphyry dykes are more evolved. The age of the trachy porphyry dykes is 255.3 - 2.4 Ma, which is probably the crystallization time of the trachy porphyry. The dykes formed in late-orogenic phase of post-collision process or within-plate environment, which suggested that the trachy porphyry dykes possibly crystallized in the transition period during which the tectonic setting changed from post-collision to with- in-plate environment. So we consider that the age when the post-collision ended and the crustal cratonization begun in the East Junggar is 255 Ma, Late Permian.展开更多

The zircon U-Pb age of the three types of granitoids suggests that they formed in different orogenic stage in response to the convergence and collision be- tween Siberian and Kazakhstan plates. Biotite granite is similar to the volcanic arc granites in composi- tion, with zircon U-Pb age of 382.8±2.5 and 355.6±2.4 Ma. The former is crystallizing age of the volcan- ic arc granite, while the later record the time of hydrothermal alteration induced by a later magmatism. The granite is severe altered and its zircon grain get a lower intercept age of 324.4±7.3 Ma, which is possibly coursed by magmatism in syn-collision. The rhyolite with composition similar to A-type gra- nites in adjacent area, crystallized at 295.9±1.4 Ma, is possibly the extrusive phase of A-type granite formed in the post-orogenic tectonic setting. The granitoids in Tuerkubantao area record the evolution of the northwestern Junggar orogen. The area has been in convergence setting from Middle to Late Devonian, and stepped into syn-collisional tectonic setting in Early Carboniferous, finally evolved into the post-orogenic tectonic stage since Early Permian.展开更多
