First Report of Zircon U-Pb Chronology and Hf Isotope Evidence of the Heluositan Group Granulite in West Kunlun, Xinjiang

Objective As the uplift belt on the southem margin of the Tarim block, the Tiekelike block consists mainly of a set of Precambrian metamorphic rocks with granulite and gneisses. The Heluositan group-complex is the most ancient rock series in the area, and is a key area for studying the formation and evolution of the Precambrian basement of the Tarim craton. LA-ICP-MS zircon U-Pb dating and Hf isotopic analysis of granulite in this area provide new evidence for revealing the formation and evolution of the Precambrian basement in the Tarim Basin.

SHRIMP Zircon U-Pb Chronology and Geochemistry of the Henglingguan and Beiyu Granitoids in the Zhongtiao Mountains,Shanxi Province

Henglingguan and Beiyu metamorphic granitoids, distributed in the northwest of the Zhongtiaoshan Precambrian complex, comprise trondhjemites and calc-alkaline monzogranites, displaying intrusive contacts with the Archean Zhaizi TTG gneisses. And the Beiyu metamorphic granitoids consist mainly of trondhjemites, distributed at the core of the Hujiayu anticline fold. New SHRIMP zircon U-Pb dating data show that the weighted mean ^207pb/^206pb ages are 2435.9 Ma and 2477 Ma for the Henglingguan metamorphic calc-alkaline monzogranites and Beiyu metamorphic trondhjemites, respectively, and reveal -2600 Ma inherited core in magmatic zircons. Whole-rock geochemical data indicate that all the Henglingguan and Beiyu metamorphic trondhjemites and calc- alkaline monzogranites belong to the metaluminous medium- and high-potassium calc-alkaline series. These rocks are characterized by relatively high total alkali contents (Na2O+K2O, up to 9.08%), depleted Nb, Ta, P and Ti, and right-declined REE patterns with moderate to high LREEs/HREEs fractionation (the mean ratio of (La/Yb)n = 25). The Henglingguan and Beiyu metamorphic trondhjemites display negative Rb, Th and K anomalies in the multi-dement spider diagrams normalized by primitive mantle. Sm-Nd isotopic data reveal that these granitoids have initial εNd(t) =-1.2 to +2.4 and Nd depleted mantle model ages of TMD = 2622 Ma-2939 Ma. All these geochemical features indicate that these granitoids were formed in an continent-marginal arc, and the trondhjemites mainly originated from partial melting of juvenile basaltic materials and, howbeit, the Henglingguan metamorphic calc-alkaline monzogranites derived from recycling of materials in the ancient crust under a continent-marginal arc. The granitic magma underwent contamination and fractional crystallization during their formation.

Geochemistry and zircon U-Pb chronology of quartz porphyry in Yuejinshan Fe-polymetallic deposit of Heilongjiang

Quartz porphyry in Yuejinshan Fe-polymetallic deposit is one of the rock masses, which formed the granite belt relating to the late Yanshanian skarn-type Fe-polymetallic deposits in the eastern Heilongjiang, and is also closely related to the metallogenic space of the Fe-polymetallic deposits. Quartz porphyry has the zircon U-Pb concordia age of 125.0±1.1 Ma, overall showing high Si(SiO_2=74.48%--75.00%), rich alkaline(Na_2O+K_2O=7.93%--8.17%, K_2O/Na_2O=1.39--1.46), and poor Mg(MgO=0.27%--0.31%), with the A/CNK value being 0.95--0.99, having the characteristics of obvious enrichment of LREE and medium Eu negative anomaly(0.69--0.74), indicating that the rock belongs to quasi-aluminous high potassium calc-alkaline series and has the same characteristics as those of the I-type granite. The rock is also characterized by the enrichment of LILE and active incompatible elements, and depletion of HFSE such as Nb, Ta, P and Ti, with the Mg~# value being 32--37, indicating that the rock originated from partial melting of crustal materials. It can be concluded from the above characteristics or data and from the distribution of contemporary magmatic rocks in the area, that quartz porphyry in Yuejinshan Fe-polymetallic deposit was formed in a tectonic background of the subduction of the paleo-Pacific plate in late Yanshanian.

Zircon U-Pb Chronology and Whole-rock Sr-Nd Isotope Compositions of Granite Porphyry in the Kaladaban Area of the Northern Altyn

Objective The Altyn Tagh marks the northern margin of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and lies between the Tarim block to the north and the Qaidam block,Qilian Orogen,and Kunlun orogenic belt to the south.The Altyn Tagh region contains ophiolite,high-to ultrahigh-pressure metamorphic rocks,and igneous rocks.Previous research has virified the occurrence of continental rifting,subduction,slab roll-back,and collision between the Tarim block and Proto-Tethys oceanic plate.Moreover,Kaladaban volcanic rocks are mainly distributed in the north Altyn region.Studies of the magmatic evolution of this region have proposed that Altyn oceanic plate was subducted during the Ordovician(Han et al.,2012;Wang et al.,2017).However,the specific timing and other aspects of the subduction are debated,and an investigation of granite porphyry in the Kaladaban area would improve our understanding of this subduction event.In this study,we present new U-Pb zircon dating result and Sr-Nd isotope composition data for granite porphyry from the North Altyn region.The objective is to constrain the timing of subduction of the North Altyn oceanic plate and establish the petrogenesis and magma source of the granite porphyry.

Zircon U-Pb chronology, geochemistry and Lu-Hf isotope constraints on genesis of monzonitic granite from Harizha area in eastern section of East Kunlun region

The Harizha area is located in the eastern section of East Kunlun orogenic belt. The petrology, the zircon LA-ICP-MS U-Pb chronology and the petrogeochemistry of the monzonitic granite in the area were studied. The results show that the formation age of the monzonitic granite in the Harizha area is 237.4±1.4 Ma, which belongs to Middle Triassic. The content of SiO_2 in the rock is 61.29%--63.30%,(K_2O+Na_2O) is 5.41%--5.84%, Al_2O_3 is 14.80%--15.99%, the Mg~# value is 46.33--48.33, and the aluminum saturation index A/CNK is 0.87--0.91. Therefore, it can be concluded that the rock belongs to the I-type granite of quasi-aluminous high potassium Ca-alkaline series. The total REE content of the rock is 118.82×10^(-6)--164.54×10^(-6), and the La/Yb ratios range from 7.77 to 10.13. Meanwhile, the rock does not show obvious Eu anomalies(δEu=0.61--0.75) and is characterized by enrichment of LREE and LILE such as Rb and K, relative depletion of HREE and HFSE such as Nb, Ti and Ta. Zircon Hf isotopic dating exhibits that the average ε_(Hf)(t) is-2.4 and the average of two-stage model age(t_(DM2)) is 1 417 Ma, indicating that the source rocks are mainly crustal materials. It can be concluded from research findings and regional geological structural analysis that the monzonitic granite in the Harizha area originated from partial melting of the Mesoproterozoic mafic lower crust in the later stage of the subduction of the Paleo-Tethys Ocean.

Geochronology and Geochemistry of Ore-related Granitoids in the Giant Gariatong Rb Deposit,Tibet and Implications for Rb Metallogeny in China

Rubidium(Rb)deposits mostly occur in the South China and Central Asia orogenic belts and are often closely associated with highly differentiated granites.This study investigates a newly-discovered giant Rb deposit at Gariatong in the Central Lhasa terrane in Tibet.Detailed field studies and logging data revealed that the Rb mineralization mainly occurs in monzogranite and is related to greisenization.LA-ICP-MS U-Pb dating of zircon yielded ages of 19.1±0.2 Ma and 19.0±0.2 Ma for greisenized monzogranite and fresh monzogranite,respectively.The monzogranites are characterized as strongly peraluminous,with high contents of SiO2,Al2O3,K2O and Na2O as well as a high differentiation index.They are enriched in light rare earth and large ion lithophile elements with significant negative Eu anomalies and depleted high fieldstrength elements.Petrological and geochemical features of these ore-related monzogranites suggest that they are highly fractionated S-type granites,derived from remelting of crustal materials in a post-collisional setting.The geochemistry of zircon and apatite points to a low oxygen fugacity of the ore-related monzogranite during the magma’s evolution.The discovery of the Gariatong Rb deposit suggests that the Central Lhasa terrane may be an important region for rare metal mineralization.

Zircon U-Pb geochronology,Hf isotopes,and geochemistry constraints on the age and tectonic affinity of the basement granitoids from the Qiongdongnan Basin,northern South China Sea

Studies in the northern South China Sea(SCS)basement remain important for understanding the evolution of the Southeast Asian continental margin.Due to a thick cover of sediments and scarce borehole penetration,little is known about the age and tectonic affinity of this basement.In this study,an integrated study of zircon U-Pb geochronology,Hf isotopes,and whole-rock major and trace elements on seven basement granitoids from seven boreholes of Qiongdongnan Basin has been carried out.New zircon U-Pb results for these granitoids present middle-late Permian((270.0±1.2)Ma;(253±3.4)Ma),middle to late Triassic((246.2±3.4)Ma;(239.3±0.96)Ma;(237.9±0.99)Ma;(228.9±1.0)Ma)and Late Cretaceous ages((120.6±0.6)Ma).New data from this study,in combination with the previous dataset,indicates that granitoid ages in northern SCS basement vary from 270 Ma to 70.5 Ma,with three age groups of 270–196 Ma,162–142 Ma,and 137–71 Ma,respectively.Except for the late Paleozoic-Mesozoic rocks in the basement of the northern SCS,a few old zircon grains with the age of(2708.1±17)Ma to(2166.6±19)Ma provide clues to the existence of the pre-Proterozoic components.The geochemical signatures indicate that the middle Permian-early Cretaceous granitoids from the Qiongdongnan Basin are I-type granites formed in a volcanic arc environment,which were probably related to the subduction of the Paleo-Pacific Plate.

Zircon U-Pb geochronology,geochemistry and tectonic implication of volcanic rocks from Manketouebo Formation in Keyihe area of northern Great Xing'an Range

Zircon U-Pb isotope dating and whole-rock geochemical analyses were undertaken for the rhyolite,rhyolitic lithic crystal tuff and dacitic tuff from the Manketouebo Formation in the Keyihe area,in order to constrain their genesis and tectonic significance.Zircon LA-ICP-MS U-Pb data indicate that the rhyolite and rhyolitic lithic crystal tuff were formed during 137±5 Ma and 143±1 Ma,respectively.These volcanic rocks have high SiO2(70.03%–76.46%)and K2O+Na2O(8.10%–9.52%)contents,but low CaO(0.03%–0.95%)and MgO(0.07%–0.67%)contents,which belong to the peraluminous and high-K calc-alkaline rocks.They are enriched in light rare earth elements(REEs),and exhibit fractionation of light over heavy REEs,withδEu values of 0.37–0.83.The volcanic rocks are enriched in LILEs(e.g.,Rb,U and K)and depleted in HFSEs(e.g.,Nb,Ti,P and Ta).The chemical composition suggests that these volcanic rocks formed by partial melting of crust material.Combined with previous regional research results,the authors consider that the volcanic rocks of the Manketouebo Formation in the Keyihe area were formed under an extensional environment related to the closure of the Mongolia–Okhotsk Ocean.

LA-ICP-MS Zircon U-Pb Geochronology of Quartz Porphyry from the Niutougou Gold Deposit in Songxian County,Henan Province

The Niutougou gold deposit, located in the center of the Xiong＇ershan gold district, western Henan Province, is a large gold deposit with many quartz porphyries found in the area. Based on the field geological investigation of quartz porphyry of Niutougou gold deposit and by using the cathodoluminescence （CL） images analysis and in situ LA-ICP-MS U-Pb isotope dating method of zircons, the inner structure, trace element compositions and U-Pb age of the zircons separated from quartz porphyry were analyzed and determined. Cathodoluminescence （CL） images of zircons show clear magmatic zonations. Trace element analyses of zircons reveal that all zircons show high concentrations of Th, U, and HREE, and the REE patterns of depletion in LREE, with a positive Ce anomaly. Zircon LA-ICP-MS U-Pb dating results show that the quartz porphyry in the Niutougou gold deposit was formed at 159.714-0.99 Ma （about 160 Ma）, belonging to the product of magmatic activity in late Middle Jurassic. Combined with the geological characteristics of the Niutougou gold deposit, the formation age of the quartz porphyry and the analysis of the formation age of the granite body exposed in the Niutougou gold deposit, the study suggests that the metallogenic epoch of the Niutougou gold deposit may be Yanshanian in age.

Origin and Geodynamic Implications of Concealed Granite in Shadong Tungsten Deposit, Xinjiang, China： Zircon U-Pb Chronology, Geochemistry, and Sr-Nd-Hf Isotope Constraint

Shadong deposit is the first large-scale tungsten deposit found in the East Tianshan orogenic belt, and the geologic characteristics of the deposit indicate that the deeply concealed granite body is ge- netically related with the mineralization. The LA-ICPMS U-Pb age of zircons from the Shadong concealed granite obtained in this research is 239±2.0 Ma, belonging to the Middle Triassic. The whole rock samples are metaiuminous to slightly peraluminous （A/CNK=0.95-1.02） with low contents of SiO2 （64.0 wt.%-68.5 wt.%） and low K2O/Na2O ratios （0.73-0.96）. The samples reveal enrichment of K, Rb, Th and depletion of Nb, Ta, P, Ti and have a negative slope from La to Lu （LaN/YbN=16.29-36.8） with weak negative Eu anom- aly （Eu/Eu＊= 0.71-0.82）. Initial ^87Sr/^86Sr ratios of whole rock range of 0.706 59-0.707 75, eNd（t） values range from -1.77 to -2.53 and εnf（t） values of zircon are between 2.54 and 4.90. The lithogeochemistry and Sr-Nd-Hf isotopic characteristics revealed that the concealed granite in Shadong tungsten deposit is I-type granite, and occurs in an intraplate tectonic setting. The magma mixing during intraplating of mantle de- rived magma intruding into the crust in Indosinian Period is the major formation mechanism of the granite. Of which, the proportion of mantle derived magma ranges from 58% to 60%, and the crustal materials are mainly the metamorphic basement of Xingxingxia Group of Mesoproterozoic Changcheng System, which may orovide the main source of ore forming metals of Shadong tungsten deposit.

东昆仑大格勒农场南辉长岩锆石U-Pb年代学、地球化学特征及地质意义

东昆仑志留纪岩浆活动强烈,记录了东昆仑造山带原特提斯洋演化晚期大洋俯冲阶段与碰撞阶段转换地质过程。本次研究对东昆仑大格勒农场南志留纪基性侵入岩开展了详细的岩相学、岩石地球化学、锆石U-Pb年代学和Hf同位素研究,以确定其形成时代、岩石成因和构造环境。研究结果表明大格勒农场南辉长岩的结晶年龄为430.2±2.4 Ma,形成时代为中志留世。辉长岩SiO_(2)(51.40%~53.66%)含量较低,MgO(18.56%~22.16%)和FeO^(T)(7.54%~10.64%)含量高,Mg^(#)为79~82。微量元素富集Rb、Th、Ba、Cs等大离子亲石元素(LILE),亏损Nb、Ta、Ti等高场强元素(HFSE),具有高Ni(276~973μg/g)、Cr(2152~3574μg/g)和Sc(35.5~53.1μg/g)含量,低Nb/Ta值(3.23~8.68)和εHf(t)值(-7.3~-3.6)。大格勒农场南辉长岩的地球化学组成具有岛弧基性岩特征,其成因可能是流体和俯冲沉积物加入的富尖晶石橄榄岩部分熔融的结果。综合区域资料表明,大格勒农场南辉长岩形成于东昆仑原特提斯洋俯冲晚期阶段,进一步限定原特提斯洋晚期俯冲与碰撞转换时限为中志留世,随后转入碰撞造山阶段。

辽东地区赛马碱性杂岩锆石U-Pb年龄、Hf同位素组成及其对构造背景的制约

通过LA-ICP-MS测得辽宁赛马地区浅肉红色霞霓正长岩中的锆石U-Pb年龄为225.8±1.9 Ma,赛马碱性杂岩的侵位时代为晚三叠世。地球化学分析表明,霞霓正长岩SiO_(2)含量为55.87%~60.88%,Na_(2)O为0.41%~5.32%,Al_(2)O_(3)为17.81%~19.53%,K_(2)O为9.46%~11.91%,MgO为0.46%~1.36%,里特曼指数为7.54~17.01;稀土元素总量较高,高于300×10^(-6),强烈富集轻稀土元素,(La/Yb)N值大于10,个别达到100以上;亏损Nb、Ta、P等高场强元素,富集Rb、Th等大离子亲石元素,总体表现出富碱性岩石特征。锆石ε_(Hf)(t)值为-13.37~-9.30,对应的两阶段Hf模式年龄T_(DM2)为2102~1855 Ma。通过岩石成因分析和构造环境判别,赛马碱性杂岩可能形成于由俯冲挤压向陆内伸展、拉张转换的动力背景下的下地壳(或上地幔)部分熔融。赛马碱性杂岩侵位时代(225.8±1.9 Ma)可能代表了华北克拉通北缘岩石圈开始伸展减薄的时间,也是郯庐断裂形成的时间。

贵东复式岩体中东部晚期花岗质小岩体的SHRIMP锆石U-Pb年龄及其地质意义

贵东复式岩体由多期次、多类型的岩体组成,且东部盛产铀矿床,因此精确厘定该复式岩体的时代及其时序,查明复式岩体东部与中西部岩浆活动的差异性及其与铀成矿的关系,不仅有利于深入研究区域岩浆活动,而且有利于深刻认识铀的成矿规律。现有研究认为,以龟尾山断裂带为界,贵东复式岩体中西部岩基属燕山早期、东部岩基属印支早期,东部广泛发育的燕山期中基性脉岩与铀成矿关系密切。但对复式岩体中东部呈岩枝、岩株广泛出露的晚期花岗质小岩体的成岩地质时代及其分布规律尚存在争议,也有待进一步查明花岗质小岩体与铀矿床的时空关系。文章选择贵东复式岩体中东部晚期花岗质小岩体为研究对象,采用SHRIMP锆石U-Pb法厘定其成岩时代,并分析它们的时空分布及其与铀成矿的关系。测试结果显示,贵东复式岩体中东部晚期花岗质小岩体普遍存在高铀锆石,这可能是对同一岩体不同学者所获得的^(206)Pb/^(238)U加权平均年龄差别较大的主要原因。剔除高铀锆石的年龄数据,龟尾山断裂带以西的隘子、司前、陈洞岩体锆石^(206)Pb/^(238)U加权平均年龄分别为163.0±1.6 Ma、163.1±1.6 Ma、160.7±1.9 Ma,属燕山早期岩浆活动的产物;而以东的帽峰、分水坳、龟尾山岩体锆石^(206)Pb/^(238)U加权平均年龄分别为230.0±2.7 Ma、225.9±2.9 Ma和232.6±3.1 Ma,属印支期岩浆活动的产物。所以,龟尾山断裂以西和以东晚期花岗质小岩体的时代不同。且龟尾山断裂带以东的印支期花岗质小岩体空间上与铀矿化、尤其是与燕山早期的绢英岩化型等中高温热液铀矿化关系密切,是主要的储矿围岩;结合元素地球化学研究结果,该区产出的印支期花岗质小岩体也可为铀成矿提供铀源。

华北克拉通栖霞地区~2.9Ga变质基性火山岩锆石SHRIMP U-Pb定年、Hf-O同位素特征及构造意义

胶东地区是华北克拉通重要的早前寒武纪研究区之一。中太古代唐家庄岩群在形成时代、岩石成因及构造环境等方面一直少有研究。作者在栖霞地区对出露的唐家庄岩群变质表壳岩进行系统地质调查研究基础上,开展了变质基性火山岩全岩地球化学、锆石SHRIMP U-Pb和Hf-O同位素等分析研究。结果显示,变质基性火山岩岩浆锆石年龄为2907.9±6.3Ma,代表了中太古代唐家庄岩群的形成时间,并遭受新太古代早、晚期变质作用。这是~2.9Ga唐家庄岩群变质基性火山岩在胶东地区首次报道。岩石地球化学特征表现为相对富集大离子亲石元素K、Rb、Sr等,Th、Nb、Zr、Hf等高场强元素相对亏损,具有中等分异的REE配分模式。岩石中岩浆锆石具有相似的Hf、O同位素组成,εHf(t)值介于-0.68~+4.21,δ18 O值介于1.38‰~6.73‰。结合前人的工作,我们得出的主要结论如下:(1)胶东地区经历~2.9Ga岩浆事件,局部地段仍保留下了同时期的变质表壳岩;(2)唐家庄岩群是中太古代初始的洋盆环境中所形成的一套火山-沉积建造;(3)华北克拉通中太古代晚期是亏损地幔新生地壳加积的主要时期,局部地壳再循环了较老的陆源物质;(4)华北克拉通新太古代晚期经历了伸展构造背景,岩浆底侵作用使岩石发生强烈变质作用。

海南岛抱板杂岩记录的多期构造热事件:锆石和独居石U-Pb年代学的制约

抱板杂岩(抱板群)是海南岛目前已发现的最古老前寒武纪结晶基底,记录了多期构造热事件,是研究海南岛大地构造属性的重要窗口。本文通过对海南岛冲卒岭地区抱板杂岩变质沉积岩、变质基性岩和伟晶岩脉的锆石和独居石LA-ICP-MS U-Pb年代学研究,来确定抱板杂岩所经历的多期构造热事件及其所代表的构造意义。研究结果显示,抱板杂岩主要由中元古代变质沉积岩、花岗质片麻岩和变质基性岩组成,经历了中元古代晚期-新元古代早期(1.3~0.9Ga)、早古生代(470~440Ma)、三叠纪(~230Ma)等多期构造热事件的改造。中元古代晚期-新元古代早期构造热事件与罗迪尼亚超大陆的汇聚有关;早古生代构造热事件与东冈瓦纳古陆北缘的增生造山作用有关;三叠纪构造热事件是印支陆块与华南陆块碰撞拼合的远程响应。综合上述研究成果和区域对比分析,认为海南岛与印支陆块具有相似的前寒武纪结晶基底和多期构造热事件的记录,表明二者具有明显的亲缘关系。

东昆仑志留纪火山岩锆石U-Pb年龄及其对陆-陆碰撞时限的制约

东昆仑造山带早古生代经历了完整的洋壳形成、俯冲消减、陆-陆碰撞造山和造山后垮塌演变过程,目前对陆-陆初始碰撞时间及碰撞时限还存在较大争议。周缘前陆盆地启动引发的沉积环境突变或不整合形成时间是用来约束大陆初始碰撞时间最直接和最有效的方法之一。本文以东昆仑水泥厂地区角度不整合覆盖于石灰厂组之上的志留纪周缘前陆盆地沉积哈拉巴依沟组为研究对象,开展火山岩夹层锆石U-Pb年代学研究,为约束早古生代陆-陆初始碰撞时间与碰撞造山时限提供沉积记录证据。结果表明,水泥厂东和雪水河东哈拉巴依沟组下部流纹质凝灰岩锆石U-Pb年龄分别为443.0±3.9 Ma和441.8±1.3 Ma,结合已报道的石灰厂组火山岩锆石U-Pb年龄(450.4±4.3 Ma),可以确定东昆仑陆-陆初始碰撞发生在450~443 Ma之间。综合区域上古生代岩浆活动、变质作用、构造变形与相关沉积记录证据,认为东昆仑地区至少从450 Ma左右开始进入陆壳深俯冲及陆-陆碰撞阶段,在425 Ma左右进入碰撞后伸展阶段,碰撞造山作用至少持续了25 Ma。

柴达木盆地北缘西段下石炭统物源和构造背景:来自碎屑岩U-Pb年代学与地球化学的约束

为查明柴达木盆地北缘西段早石炭世沉积物来源和构造背景,本次研究采集小赛什腾山怀头他拉组沉积岩进行碎屑岩锆石U-Pb年代学和全岩微量元素地球化学分析。研究表明:测试样品微量元素蛛网图呈平坦型,富Th、U、Hf,贫Co、Sc、Ni、V元素;砂岩轻重稀土元素分馏明显,属轻稀土富集型,具有中等负Eu异常;Cr/Zr、Sm/Nd、Th/Sc及Th/U等微量元素比值和判别图版显示研究区怀头他拉组为上地壳长英质物源区。沉积岩微量元素、稀土元素含量及特征比值显示,研究区样品与大陆弧环境砂岩具有极为相似的地球化学特征,相关构造环境投图同样表明怀头他拉组沉积环境以大陆弧为主,兼有主动大陆边缘特征。怀头他拉组碎屑锆石U-Pb年龄可划分出3个年龄区间,480~402 Ma,1493~900 Ma和1908~1803 Ma。年龄谱呈早古生代单峰值特征,峰值年龄为414 Ma,反映物源区与柴北缘加里东期构造带内早古生代晚期的岩浆作用关系密切。结合前人区域上古地理、古水流证据,综合分析认为小赛什腾山下石炭统怀头他拉组物源主要来自于柴北缘高压—超高压变质带。

激光剥蚀-扇形磁场电感耦合等离子体质谱法同时测定锆石U-Pb年龄和微量元素含量

激光剥蚀-扇形磁场电感耦合等离子体质谱(LA-SF-ICP-MS)具有高灵敏度特征,被广泛应用于锆石等含U矿物原位微区U-Pb定年研究,但磁偏转式质量分析器的使用导致该质谱仪扫描速度相对较慢,可能影响U-Pb同位素与其他关键微量元素的同时采集。本文通过优化仪器信号稳定性和实验方法,对目前常用的7种锆石U-Pb标准样品进行U-Pb定年和Ti、REEs、Hf等关键元素同时定量分析,探讨了多元素同时分析方法的可行性及对于U-Pb定年结果的影响。实验结果表明,相对于LA-SF-ICP-MS仅检测U-Pb同位素方法,同时开展多元素含量检测可能会使U-Pb同位素信号强度稳定性下降,导致单点U-Pb年龄结果误差及离散程度增大。与仅测定U-Pb同位素年龄的测定结果相比较,根据不同锆石样品中U-Pb同位素含量高低,多元素同时检测获得分析点的206Pb/238U年龄和207Pb/235U年龄变化范围不同程度地增大,其中207Pb/235U年龄受影响明显,单点207Pb/235U年龄误差从~1.5%增大至~2.0%,单点年龄的相对标准偏差(RSD)从0.5%~1.3%增大至1.2%~3.3%。尽管如此,多元素同时检测方法对于各样品最终测定年龄没有明显的影响,相对于TIMS年龄,各样品的谐和年龄和206Pb/238U加权平均年龄偏差分别小于1.0%和0.7%,完全满足U-Pb同位素地质年代学测试要求。同时测定锆石样品中的关键微量元素含与其推荐值相对误差小于10%。因此,采用LA-SF-ICP-MS可以同时准确地测定锆石U-Pb年龄和微量元素含量,该方法亦可用于其他副矿物U-Pb年龄与关键微量元素同时测定。

皖南伏岭A型花岗岩的成因——地球化学、锆石U-Pb年龄及Lu—Hf同位素特征

伏岭花岗岩体,位于江南造山带东段的皖浙相邻区,岩浆岩沿着近北东向的宁国—绩溪深大断裂断分布。笔者等对伏岭岩体鱼龙川(γ_(5)^(3-2))单元花岗岩开展了系统的全岩岩石地球化学、LA-ICPMS锆石U-Pb同位素年龄和锆石原位Lu—Hf同位素地球化学研究,结果表明,花岗岩的侵位年龄为131.8±0.9 Ma,富硅、富碱、贫钙、贫铁,具有较高的Rb、Th、U、Ga、Zr和Y含量,较低的Sr、Ba和Nb含量,稀土配分曲线呈现典型的“海鸥式”分布特征,显示强烈的负Eu异常;微量元素原始地幔标准化蛛网图显示明显的Ba、Sr、Nb的负异常。其高SiO_(2)含量和Rb/Sr值、低Ba、Sr含量具备江南造山带东段皖南地区A型花岗岩的典型特征。岩体具有同源岩浆演化特征,源区可能存在磷灰石、钛铁矿的分离结晶作用,而辉石类的分离较少。伏岭岩体主要来源于地壳中镁铁质岩石的部分熔融,其地球化学特征继承于源岩。锆石ε_(Hf)(t)变化范围较小,均在-7.0~-4.6之间,二阶段模式年龄(TDM2)为1478~1630 Ma,伏岭花岗岩可能由中元古代古老下地壳部分熔融形成。伏岭岩体的形成可能受到碰撞作用的影响,岩体形成于后碰撞期,中元古代的基底岩石被大范围的熔融,从而产生了伏岭A型花岗岩。

甘肃北山南部早古生代古亚洲洋俯冲作用:来自明舒井埃达克质侵入体锆石U-Pb年龄及地球化学的证据

甘肃北山南部具有重要的构造位置与复杂的构造演化历史,制约着北山造山带大地构造归属研究。北山明舒井埃达克质侵入体位于南部辉铜山以西地区,岩性主要为二长花岗岩、正长花岗岩、花岗闪长岩、石英闪长岩等。对明舒井侵入体中的二长花岗岩、正长花岗岩和花岗闪长岩进行LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb测年,定年结果分别为423.4±3.4 Ma、425.4±2.3 Ma和437.8±3.5 Ma。岩石SiO2含量多数大于56%(55.53%~64.42%),Al2O3大于15%(15.1%~17.79%),MgO多数小于3%,全部小于6%(2.07%~3.5%),Y和Yb含量均较低,同时轻稀土元素富集,Eu异常不明显,Sr含量较高,具有与埃达克岩相似的特征。综合区域地质背景,认为北山南部志留纪埃达克质侵入岩形成于活动大陆边缘火山弧环境,可能是志留纪古亚洲洋向北消减俯冲背景下岩浆作用的产物,同时发生了大规模的地壳增生。明舒井埃达克质侵入岩体的识别为北山造山带早古生代构造演化提供了重要依据。
