The results for both NBS 981 and USGS rock standardsAGV-1 and BHVO-1 are comparable to or better than double- and triple-spike TIMS (thermal ionizationmass spectrometry) data in precision. The data for BHVO-2 and, to a lesser extent, AGV-2 and BCR-2are reproducibly higher for ^(206)Pb/^(204)Pb, ^(207)Pb/^(204)Pb and ^(208)Pb/^(204)Pb thandouble-spike TIMS data in the literature. The authors also obtained the Pb isotope data for BIR- 1/1and W-2, which may be used as reference values in future studies. It is found that linearcorrection for Pb isotopic fractionation is adequate with the results identical to those correctedfollowing an exponential law or a power law. Precise ^(207)Pb/^(206)Pb, ^(208)Pb/^(206)Pb and^(208)Pb/^(207)Pb ratios can be acquired for sample solutions with Pb>=1 ppb. However, Pb isotoperatios involving ^(204)Pb (i.e., ^(206)Pb/^(204)Pb, ^(207)Pb/^(204)Pb and ^(208)Pb/^(204)Pb) arereliable for solutions with Pb>=40 ppb. The errors for Pb isotope ratio analysis using the MC-ICP-MSare dominated by errors in the analysis of ^(204)Pb, which is commonly ascribed to the difficultyand imprecise correction for a ^(204)Hg isobaric interference. It is found however that the majorerrors on ^(204)Pb come from the tailings of mass ^(203)Tl and mass ^(205)Tl These mass tailingslead to over-subtraction of the baseline for ^(204)Pb, which is measured at +-0.5 amu on both sidesof mass-204 (i.e., at amu 203.5 and 204.5 respectively). Such errors are insignificant for Pb-richsample solutions (i.e., high Pb/Tl ratios), but can be severe for low-Pb sample solutions whenover-'spiked' with Tl. Experiments in this study suggest that a minimum concentration ratio ofPb/Tl>5 in Tl-'spiked' solutions be required to ensure reliable ^(206)Pb/^(204)Pb, ^(207)Pb/^(204)Pband ^(208)Pb/^(204)Pb isotopic ratios. The tailings of ^(203)Tl and ^(205)Tl can also lead toover-subtraction of baselines for ^(202)Hg (at amu 202.5) and ^(206)Pb (at amu 205.5). Therefore,the elegance of using ^(203)Tl and ^(205)Tl isotopes for mass fractionation correction becomes asevere problem in low-Pb rock solution-caution is required. Alternative internal standards for massfractionation correction may be considered. Of course, significant instrumental refinement inabundance sensitivity is in demand.展开更多

This paper ...The Cretaceous granitoids in the middle and northern Gangdese, Tibet are generally interpreted as the products of anatexis of thickened deep crust genetically associated with the Lhasa-Qiangtang collision. This paper reports bulk-rock major element, trace element and Sr-Nd isotopic data, zircon U-Pb age data, and zircon Hf isotopic data on the Zayu pluton in eastern Gangdese, Tibet. These data shed new light on the petrogenesis of the pluton. Our SHRIMP zircon U-Pb age dates, along with LA-ICPMS zircon U-Pb age dates recently reported in the literature, indicate that the Zayu pluton was emplaced at about 130 Ma, coeval with Early Cretaceous magmatic rocks in other areas of eastern Gangdese (e.g., Rawu, Baxoi areas) and the Middle Gangdese. The Zayu pluton samples lack amphibole and muscovite, and are compositionally characterized by high SiO2 (69.9%–76.8%), K2O (4.4%–5.7%), and low P2O5 (0.05%–0.12%). These samples also have A/CNK values of 1.00–1.05, and are enriched in Rb, Th, U, and Pb, and depleted in Ba, Nb, Ta, Sr, P, Ti, and Eu. These geochemical features suggest that the Zayu pluton samples are metaluminous to slightly peraluminous and are of highly fractionated I-type granite. The Zayu pluton samples have high ? Nd(t) values (?10.9–?7.6) and low initial 87Sr/86Sr ratios (0.7120–0.7179) relative to melts derived from mature continental crust in the Gangdese (e.g., Ningzhong Early Jurassic strongly peraluminous granite). The Zayu pluton samples are heterogeneous in zircon ? Hf(t) values (?12.8–?2.9), yielding ancient zircon Hf crustal model ages of 1.4–2.0 Ga. The data obtained in this study together with the data in the recent literature suggest that the Early Cretaceous granitoids in eastern Gangdese represent the eastward extension of the Early Cretaceous magmatism in the middle Gangdese, and that the Lhasa micro-continent block with ancient basement may extend for ～2000 km from east to west. Zircon Hf isotopic data and bulk-rock zircon saturation temperature (789–821 °C) indicate that mantle-derived materials likely played a role in the generation of the Zayu pluton. We propose that the Zayu pluton was most likely generated in a setting associated with southward subduction of the Bangong-Nujiang ocean floor, where mantle wedge-derived magmas may have provided the heat and material for the anatexis of ancient crust of the Lhasa micro-continent, resulted in hybrid melts (i.e., mantle-derived basaltic magmas + crust-derived felsic magmas). Such hybrid melts with subsequent fractional crystallization are responsible for the highly evolved Zayu pluton (crust thickening is not a prerequisite).展开更多
