In this paper was conducted 40Ar-39Ar dating of two phlogopites in lamprophyres which are,as dikes,widely distributed in the orefield,and two plateau ages were ac-quired,i.e.,32.46±0.62 Ma and 32.01±0.60 Ma,respectively (averaging 32.23±0.60 Ma). The ages are obviously younger than those of the ore-hosted complex and mineralization of the Baimazhai nickel deposit. In combination with the characteristics,it is indicated that lamprophyres in the orefield and those in the Sanjiang ARIR are similar in tectonic setting,mineral assemblage and geochemistry. It is considered that lamprophyres in the orefield are the im-portant component of the Sanjiang ARIR,and the lamprophyres and ore-hosted complex in the orefield represent the products of two times of different magmatic activity from different mantle sources. On the other hand,the age of lamprophyres in the orefield is older than that of the strike-slip shearing of the Ailaoshan-Honghe fault belt,sug-gesting that the strike-slip shearing of the Ailaoshan-Honghe fault belt is not the factor leading to magmatic activity of lamprophyres in the orefield,while it is more possible that magmatic activity of the Sanjiang ARIR promoted strike-slip shearing of the fault belt.展开更多

Both element geochemistry data and mixing calculation showed that lamprophyres in the Baimazhai nickel deposit were derived from a metasomatism-enrichment mantle and the fluids resulted from dehydration of a subducted slab which is comprised of ALK-, LREE- and incompatible element-rich sediments.展开更多
