However, different groups of serpentinized peridotites from both ocean drillings and ophiolite complexes have shown considerable variations in the abundance of magnetite(Oufi et al., 2002;Bonnemains et al., 2016;Li et al., 2017). We examined the magnetic properties, petrography and mineral chemistry of variably serpentinized peridotites from Zedang ophiolite in the eastern Yarlung-Zangbo suture in south Tibet to evaluate the conditions of serpentinization and magnetite formation as well as magnetic sources in suture zones. The studied samples were 0–90% serpentinized with densities from 3.316 to 2.593 g cm–3 and show typical mesh textures of olivine replaced by serpentine on thin sections of core specimen. Serpentines were divided into type-1 Fe-poor serpentine mesh(1.84–2.88 wt% FeO) associated with magnetite in the early stage and type-2 Fe-rich serpentine cores(3.92–5.12 wt% FeO) with no formation of magnetite in the late serpentinization. Brucite vein appeared in central serpentine veins and show Mg/(Mg+Fe) values of 0.74–0.87 at ~50–70% of serpentinization. Pure magnetite was identified as the main magnetic carrier by thermomagnetic analyses, but minor Cr-magnetite(~0.8 mole fractions of Fe3O4) was also detected due to oxidation of early spinel. All the peridotite samples show a rapid increase of magnetic susceptibility from ~0.001 to ~0.03 SI before 40–50% of serpentinization and a following flat trend in values 0.02–0.03 SI at > 50% of serpentinization. This density-susceptibility relationship differs from the rapid production of magnetite above 60-70% of serpentinization for many abyssal peridotites(Oufi et al., 2002;Bach et al., 2006) and suggests that magnetite formation was coupled with hydration of olivine in the early serpentinization but the two decoupled at ~ 40–50% of serpentinization. This transition is consistent with the petrographic observation that magnetite-free serpentinization was developed in higher degrees(> 50%) of serpentinization. Prior studies suggested that serpentinization of < 200℃ would generate Fe-rich brucite, serpentine and little magnetite, whereas magnetite-rich serpentinization was associated with Fe-poor brucite and occurred at higher temperatures of 200–300℃(Klein et al., 2014). The petromagnetic features of serpentinized peridotites from the Zedang ophiolite indicate that the serpentinization process took place initially above 250℃(estimate from brucite composition) and continued to lower temperatures of < 200℃, probably during the mantle lithosphere cooling down in forearc settings(Xiong et al., 2017). These serpentinized peridotites have higher magnetization intensities(average 2.26 Am-1) than mafic dolerite dykes and basaltic volcanic rocks(mostly < 1 Am-1) and should be significant sources of aeromagnetic highs in the Yarlung-Zangbo suture.展开更多
