LA-ICP-MS U-Pb dating results of zircons from the diorites indicate that the rocks were formed in the Middle Jurassic （171 ±2 Ma, MSWD = 1. 19）. Geochemically, these rocks have Si02 concentrations of 52. 52%-54. 90%,K20 of 2. 14%-3.84% , Na20 of 3. 17%-3. 35% , MgO of 7. 43%-9. 34% and high Mg# of 68. 57-72. 57. These rocks are characterized by enrichment in large ion lithophile elements（ LILE,such as K, Ba, Rb and Sr） and light rare earth elements （ LREE） , relatively depletion in high field strength elements （ HFSE, such as Ta, Nb, Ti and Zr） , and heavy rare earth elements （HREE）. These characteristics suggest that primary magma of the rocks were derived from the partial melting of mantle with miner crustal contamination, which may related to partial melting of mantle wedge by addition of sediment melt from subducting oceanic crust. Based on former and present studies, the authors consider that the Nancha ore deposit high-Mg diorites were formed in compres- sional structural setting which is similar to volcanic arc. It could be related to the subduction of the Paleo-Paci- fic plate beneath the Eurasian continent.展开更多

The zircons from the high-Mg diorite exhibit striped absorption and oscillatory growth zoning in the cathodoluminescence （CL） images, and have high Th/U ratios （0. 05-0.9）, indicating a magma origin. Zircon LA-ICP-MS U-Pb dating indicates that 206pb/238U ages of 12 spots of zircons are between 167 Ma and 178 Ma, yielding a weighted mean 206pb/238U age of 172 ＋ 2 Ma （MSWD =4. 1 ）, which represents the forming age of the high-Mg dioritic dike, i. e. Middle Jurassic. Geochemically, the samples have SiO2 =55.4-60. 6 wt. % , Na20 =2. 2-2.76 wt. % , K20 = 1.32-2. 02 wt. % and （Na2O ＋ K2O） =3.82--4. 47 wt. %, belonging to sub-alkaline series and displaying a calc-alkaline evolutionary trend. They are characterized by high MgO （4. 75-6.85 wt. % ）, Mg# （55-61）, Cr（130-262 ppm）, Ni（63-130 ppm）, Sr（568-857 ppm）, and Ba（484-1 130 ppm） contents, with geochemical features analogous to those of high-Mg adakites. They show variable end （t） values （ - 1.3 to - 3.9） , with a weighted value of - 2. 7, which plot intermediately between the field of the ancient continental crust and the depleted mantle source, indicating that both the lower crust and mantle source are necessary for the generation of the parent magma of the Haicheng high-Mg diorites. The Haicheng high-Mg dioritic dike in the Liaodong Peninsula and the Jurassic magmatism in the eastern North China Craton formed under a continental crustal thickening setting that may be related to subduction of the Paleo-Pacific oceanic plate.展开更多
