Kiibler's illite crystallinity (IC) measurements provide more consistent results than calculated values of percentage of illite in the I/S mixed layers and percentage of I/S mixed layers. Down-borehole IC values display a typical burial metamorphic relationship between stratigraphic level and IC. A method for preparing very low grade metamorphic maps is described, and isograds plotted on a regional geological map at selected values of IC, delineating a high temperature diagenetic zone, an anchizone, and an epizone. The map shows that IC values are controlled by stratigraphic level in the north of the study area (i.e. burial metamorphism), and proximity to an igneous intrusive body in the south (i.e. contact metamorphism).展开更多

The Punctuated multistage convergent movement and the emplacemeat of YanShanian granitoid intrusions account for the complication of its tectonic framework. The Dabie metamorphic complex is composed of 3 units: supracrustals of early Precambrian age, granite gneiss and metamorphic magic rocks of lats Precambrian age. Three major metsmorphic Stages can be traced, i. e. granulite factes, amphibolite facies of Precambrian and the HP/ LT epidote amphibolite and greenschist facies of Phanerozoic. The Hong'an Group underlying the Dabie complex shows epidote amphibolite facies which is probably synchronous with the amphibolite facies of the Dabie complex. The Protolith of the HP and UHP eclogiter are diversided. The amphibole, epidote and other mineral inclusions within the eclogite minerals testify to the earlier history of Pre-eclogitic metamorphism. The peak metamorphic assemblage coesite-omphacite-garnet is superimposed by amphibolite, epidote amphibolite and greenschist facies of retrograde metamorphism. In many regions the eclogites appear as pods, lenses and layers within ductile shear zones having synkinematic greenschist or epidote amphibolite facies of retrograde metamorphism. The Sm-Nd isochron of whole rock and garnet combined with Ph-Ph dating of zircon crystals from Mifengjian eclogite block in Hubei suggest that the UHI, metamorphism probably took Place nearly 480 Ma Which evideoces one of the most important tertono-thermal events of the punctuated evolution in the Dabie terrane.展开更多

Meanwhile, residuals of the slab-melting are transformed to eclogite or garnet-amphibolite during a slab subduction process. This note reports the adakite-type grey gneisses discovered in the North Dabie Mountain. These adakitic rocks are characterized by high AI2O3(14.97%-17.56%), Sr (545-941 μg/g), Sr/Y (44.71-218.98), La/Yb (16.70-97.50), and low Y (3.32-12.19μg/g), Yb (0.31-1.34 μg/g), Sc (0.92-4.2μg/g), as well as positive Sr anomaly but absent or positive Eu anomaly. They are different from the low aluminum grey gneisses with low AI2O3 (13.73%-14.38%), Sr (262-409 μg/g), Sr/Y (6.46-15.97) and La/Yb (1.90-22.60), high Y(21.79-36.24 μg/g), Yb (2.00-5.59 μg/g) , Sc (8.30%-12.70%), and negative Sr, Eu anomaly in the North Dabie Mountain.
