The Hengling granitic gneisses （ca. 2.51 Ga） are characterized by high Na2O and LILEs, TTG-like REE patterns （highly depleted HREE and minor Eu anomalies） and moderately depleted Nd-Sr isotopic compositions （εNd（t） =1.2-2.7, ISr=0.7015-0.7019）, and were considered as being products of arc magmatism that was developed upon the North China craton. The Xipan complex （ca. 2.2 Ga） contain gabbroic diorite and monzonite, mostly being Na2O-rich, highly fractionated REE patterns and isotopically enriched （εNd（t） =-1.5 to -4.1, Isr=0.7038-0.706）. The gabbroic diorites probably originated from melting of an enriched mantle source, but significantly contaminated by lower crustal material, and the monzonites probably represent a product of a mixture between the gabbroic dioritic magma and granitic melts of crustal origin. The Yunzhongshan post-collisional granitoids （ca. 1.8 Ga） are characterized by high-K affinity and highly-enriched and homogeneous Nd isotopic compositions （εNd（t）=-4.9 to -5.7）, although they split into two groups in terms of REE patterns： one group showing elevated HREE （and Sc, Y and Zr） with significant negative Eu anomalies and the other showing highly depleted HREE and, to a lesser extent, mid-REE with negligible Eu anomalies. These granites are genetically related to a process of extensional collapse of a thickened orogen. They formed through magma mixing between mantle-derived basaltic magmas and crust-derived granitic melts, followed by significant fractionation of ferromagnesian phases （like hornblende and Cpx） and feldspar and accessory zircons. Some Yunzhongshan granites show very old Nd model ages （2.9-3.0 Ga）, suggesting the existence of continental crust older than 2.7 Ga, which is supported by our zircon Hf isotopic data for these granites.展开更多

The zircon U-Ph ages of bimodal volcanic rocks (basalt and rhyolite) of the Upper Luliang Group indicate that the rocks erupted at about 2100 Ma. So the Luliang Group was formed during the Early Proterozoic. In the area studied the second-stage metamorphism experienced by the Luliang Group is the dominant one which took place at about 1806 Ma, i. e., during the late Early Proterozoic.展开更多

They are characterized by high SiO\-2, Na\-2O+K\-2O, Zr, Nb, Ga, Y and REE contents and large FeO\+*/MgO, Rb/Sr and Ga/Al ratios, and low CaO, Sr and Eu contents, and share much in common with the A type granitic rocks. They erupted in the rift setting at the continental margin. Chemical features and isotope data, as well as high Nd and low initial Sr ratios, suggest that the original granitic magma was derived from partial melting of Late Archean metamorphic rocks in the lower crust due to the influence of basaltic magma and hot fluid in response to rifting. The A type rhyolites were finally formed after the fractional crystallization of the dominant mineral feldspar.展开更多
