It is con- trolled by tensional or transtensional fracture network in relatively hard felsic crystalline rocks, appearing as breccia with dark cryptocrystalline matrix. The kilometer-scale dis- tribution and complicated relation to fracture system of the stockwork microbreccias, randomly distributed autochtho- nous fragments of host rock, ultracataclasis without notable displacement in the cryptocrystalline matrix, and a probable solid-state amorphization deformation mechanism all suggest that large-scale, high-energy and rapid brittle fracturing event might have occurred in the rocks at relatively deep crustal level in the areas.展开更多

The chromites usually have very low Re and high Os con- tents, which makes it the most resistant phase remaining from the primary magmatic history of the ultramafic sec- tions of ophiolites. The podiform chromite is one of the ro- bust indicators of initial Os isotopic compositions of the ophiolites where podiform chromites were derived from, which provides strong evidence for the origin and evolution of oceanic lithosphere. The Re and Os contents and the Os isotopic compositions of seven podiform chromitites from Zunhua ophiolitic mélange belt, North China are reported in this study. The Re contents range from 0.019 to 0.128 ng/g, Os from 8.828 to 354.0 ng/g, and the 187Os/188Os ratio from 0.11003 to 0.11145. Three massive chromitites among the sample set have very high Os contents (>300 ng/g), and their 187Os/188Os ratios range from 0.11021 to 0.11030, averaging 0.11026 ± 0.00005 (σ ), equivalent to a γOs = ?0.12 ± 0.06 at 2.6 Ga, which means that the Os isotopic composition of con- vecting upper mantle is chondritic in late Archean. It is the Os isotopic composition of podiform chromitites that are derived from the oldest ophiolite in the world till now.展开更多
