Dating the zircons from the dacite with schistosity is 2 506 Ma in method of U-Pb (SHRIMP). This evidence indicates the rocks may be referred to Late Permian in age. Discovery of the rocks is significant to re-recognize stratigraphic property of "Liaohe Group", regional geoteetonie location and revolution of orogenic zone in Qinghe valley of the northern Liaoning.展开更多

The geochemical characteristics of their major, trace and rare-earth elements indicated that the metamorphic basic volcanic rocks in this area were emplaced in the tectonic environment like a modern continental rift. Sm-Nd and Rb-Sr isotope chronological studies demonstrated that the Jiehekou Group metamorphic basic volcanic rocks were formed during the 2600-Ma crust/mantle differentiation event, and were transformed by granulite facies metamorphism during the late Neo-Archaean period (2500 Ma ±), making the Sm-Nd systematics of the rocks reset. During the late Paleoproterozoic period (1800 Ma ±) the Rb-Sr systematics of the rocks were disturbed again in response to the Lüliang movement. Since the extent of disturbance was so weak that the Sm-Nd systematics was not affected, the age of 1600 Ma ± obtained from this area seems to be related to local magmatic activities within the craton. Research results lend no support to the idea that the Lüliang Group was formed during the Archaean. Instead, it should be formed during the Proterozoic.展开更多

The age of the volcanic rocks is thus crucial to understand the tectonic regime and evolutionary history of the North China Craton in the Proterozoic age. Zircons from five volcanic rocks and intrusions were dated by U-Pb SHRIMP method. The results indicate that the Xiong'er Group formed in 1.80--1.75 Ga of Paleo-Proterozoic. Since the Xiong'er Group formed earlier than the Changcheng System, the earliest rocks in the Changcheng System is therefore assumed to be formed in 1.75 Ga. A thermal-tectonic event of ca. 1.84 Ga is indicated by new zircon U-Pb SHRIMP ages in the southern part of the North China Craton. The volcanic rocks of the Xiong'er Group thus represent the initial magmatism of the Paleo-Proterozoic breakup of the North China Craton. Numerous inherited zircons in the volcanic rocks mainly formed in ~2.20 Ga, indicating that the source magma of the volcanic rocks may be derived from the ~2.20 Ga crust, or from a mantle magma with significant contamination of the ~2.20 Ga crust.展开更多

The Yangba Formation comprises the maficand felsic volcanic rocks formed in an ancient seafloor environment during the Proterozoic era. The suitesof mafic and felsic volcanic rocks are petrochemically divided into tholeiite and calc-alkaline dacite, respectively, showing characteristics of bimodal volcanic rock mainly by lithology and major element content, and a lack of typical intermediate rocks. These signatures indicate that the volcanic rocks of YangbaFormation were generated in rift tectonics setting. The tholeiites of Yangba Formation are similar in trace element content to mid-ridge basalt, displaying a slight depletion to enrichment in light rare earth elements (LREE’s) (La/Yb_n = 0.6-1.4), slightfractionation between LREE (La/Sm_n =0.55-1.14) and HREE (Gd/Lu_n = 1.09-1.50), and relative flat patterns in whole. The decoupling of Eu to its neighboring elements in two samples likely indicates an effect of fractional crystallization in magma evolution.
