There are obvious differences in chemicalcomopition of these two subtypes. The high-p subtype is strongly peraluminous and characterized by low silica and very low REE contents, while the low-p subtype is weakly peraluminousand characterized by high silica and very high REE contents. There are also some differences inchemical compositions of feldspars and micas for these two subtypes. The phosphorus of thehigh-p subtype mainly appears to be in the feldspar structure as PAISi-2 substitution or subordinately in amblygonite as an accessory mineral, while the phosphorus of the low-p subtype ismainly in apatite and other phosphate minerals.展开更多

To simulate the evolution process of Li-F-rich granite and to interpret its forming mechanism, a series of melting-crystallization experiments were carried out. Under the conditions of 1×108 Pa and 570–700°C, a magmatic mineral association of quartz + alkali feldspar + lithium muscovite/ferromuscovite ± fluorite ± cassiterite is found in leucogranite-HF-H2O system. This indicates the following points: (i) Fluorite, light-colored muscovite and cassiterite can crystallize directly from the Li-F-rich granitic melt. (ii) The coexistence of dark-colored micas (e.g. biotite) and light-colored micas (e.g. lithium muscovite and ferromuscovite) suggests that the muscovite granite and two-mica granite can be formed under magmatic condition. The zonal texture of micas is not the sole feature for the micas of hydrothermal origin. (iii) As crystallization proceeds, the SiO2 concentration of the residual melt decreases, while the Al2O3 and F concentrations and A/CNK, NKA/Si ratios of the melt incerese, favoring the formation of Li-F-rich granites. Our experiment results are well consistent with the vertical zonation widely observed in rare metal bearing granites, and therefore provide strong experimental evidence for magmatic origin of Li-F-rich granite.展开更多

Detailed electron-microprobe study revealed abundant phosphates and associated metasomatic minerals between primary phases in xenolith. The phosphates are considered special residual phases (coagulation) of P- and F-rich mantle melt/fluid, most of which were identified as glass phases based on Raman spectroscopic analyses. Such melt/fluid also further metasomatized primary minerals, thus leading to formation of reaction rims successively composed of Cr-spinel symplectitic zone and olivine + diopside zone. Therefore, the P- and F-rich melt/fluid played an important role in the upper-mantle metasomatism in the Keluo area. It is suggested that this kind of metasomstism may occur in some other places of eastern China. The present results may also have significance in study-ing types of metasomatic melt/fluid and its evolution in the lithospheric mantle beneath eastern China.展开更多
