In the northwestern margin of the Yangtze block, the Hannan （汉南） intrusive complex includes the Wudumen （五堵门）, Erliba （二里坝） and Zushidian （祖师殿） granitoids. Using LA-ICP-MS U-Pb zircon dating method, the Wudumen and Erliba granitoids yielded magma crystallization ages of 785±4 and 778±3 Ma, respectively. Samples from these three granitoids show variable SiO2 contents ranging from 58.8% to 72.6%. They are characterized by enrichment of Al2O3（14.97%-17.87%）, Na2O（3.80%-5.33%） and Sr （504ppm-741 ppm）, and depletion of Y （〈19 ppm） and HREE （e.g., Yb〈1.6 ppm）, resulting in high Sr/Y （29-161） and （La/Yb）N （7.3-27.8） ratios. The geochemical features of the granitoids are comparable with those of adakite. The granitoids have zircon εHdt） values of ＋3.65 to ＋10.05, whole-rock εNd（t） values of -0.09 to ＋2.98 and whole-rock initial ^87Sr/^86Sr ratios of 0.7034-0.7039, indicating that their magma was derived from a juvenile crustal source. Together with geochemical and Hf-Sr-Nd isotopic compositions, it is suggested that the granitoids formed in island-arc setting and originated from partial melting of a subducted oceanic slab. The results support a model that the Yangtze block was surrounded by ocean and arc magmatism in its northern and northwestern margins in Neoproterozoic.展开更多
