They are the Lower Cambrian, the Upper Devonian and the Upper Permian. As compared with the crustal evolution in this area, these three geochemical abnormal horizons are correspoding to the pullingapart perieds of gcotectonic cycles, which illustrates that the uncommon depositional sources Pouring into the basin from the earth’s interior may be one of themost important causes to originate the geochemical anomalies in these horizons. Thus it can berealized that the gaxhemistry of opst-Archean sedimentary rocks has a great deal to do with thecrustal evolution and it can be used as a tracer to analyze the crustal evolution. The elements inthis area are mainly concentrated in these geochemical abnormal horizons, and the degree of enrichment and deficiency of trace elements in other horizons is very limited. A series of researchon mineralization indicates that the main strata-bound ore deposits discovered in the SouthwestYangtze Massif occur in the Cambrian, Devonian and Permian-Triassic strata. The results ofisotope tracer research have also proved that most of the metallogenic elements in these ore dePosits came from the host strata, which illustrates that the geochemical abnormal horizons mayhave made great contributions to these ore-forming processes. Thus it can be concluded that itis only the particular horizons corresponding to the particular periods of earth’s evolution thatcan they be the significant source beds because only in these uncommon horizons there can behighly enriched metallogenic elements, which may be one of the most important reasons for explaining the time-bound nature of mineralization.展开更多

In this paper,we report new zircon U–Pb ages,Hf isotopic data,and major-and trace-element compositions of the early Paleozoic intrusive rocks from the Khanka Massif of the Russian Far East,with the aim of elucidating the early Paleozoic evolution and the tectonic attributes of the Khanka Massif,as well as the nature of the underlying deep crust. New U–Pb zircon data indicate that early Paleozoic magmatism within the Khanka Massif can be subdivided into at least four stages:;02 Ma,;92 Ma,462–445 Ma,and;30 Ma. The;02 Ma pyroxene diorites show negative Eu anomalies,and the;92 Ma syenogranites,intruding the;02 Ma diorites,show positive Eu anomalies.These observations indicate that the primary parental magmas of these rocks were derived from different origins. The 462–445 Ma magmatism is made up of syenogranites and tonalites.The;45 Ma Na-rich tonalites contain low REE concentrations,and are enriched in Eu and Sr.These observations,together with the positiveεHf(t)values,indicate that they were derived from magmas generated by partial melting of cumulate gabbros. The;30 Ma I-type granodiorites and monzogranites from the northern Khanka Massif,and the A-type monzogranites from the central Khanka Massif display zirconεHf(t)values ranging from–5.4 to+5.8.This suggests that they formed from magmas generated by partial melting of heterogeneous lower crustal material. Zircon Hf isotopic data reveal the existence of Precambrian crustal material within the Khanka Massif.The geochemistry of the Middle Cambrian intrusive rocks is indicative of formation in an extensional setting,while Late Cambrian–middle Silurian magmatism was generated in an active continental margin setting associated with the subduction of a paleo-oceanic plate beneath the Khanka Massif.Regional comparisons of the magmatic events indicate that the Khanka Massif has a tectonic affinity to the Songnen–Zhangguangcai Range Massif rather than the Jiamusi Massif.展开更多

Reconstruction of fields of tension according to geological data of the certain massif of the Chatkalo-Kurama mountain area (Tien-Shan)—a coastal zone of the Charvak reservoir and the Almalyk mining industrial region is executed. The multidirectional motions of blocks of rocks in the massif of a coastal zone of the Charvak reservoir connected with tectonic and technogenic factors are revealed. The scheme of kinematics and the intense deformed condition of blocks of the Almalyk district is received.
