Our data show that the magnetic fabric at sites 48- 51 and 53 is mainly carried by paramagnetic minerals (muscovite.chlorite and biotite), while at site 52 both paramagnetic minerals and hematite contribute to the total AMS . Separation of the two components of anisotropy indicates that they are approximately coaxial . The magnetic foliation is either parallel to an Indosinian (Late Triassic ) metamorphic schistosity (sites 48-52 ) or to a Yanshanian (Late Mesozoic ) microscopic mylonitic foliation (site 53). The magnetic lineation corresponds either to me regional structural trend (sites 48 - 52 ) or to the line of intersection between the schistosiry and the mylonitic surface (site 53 ).Our results suggest that Indosinian metamorphism and deformation took place simultaneously under the control of a compressional stress field which is mostly responsible for the generation of the observed magnetic fabric .However ,post-Indosinian deformation of the Yanshanian orogeny may exist at some locations and interfere with the Indosinian fabric .展开更多

The trace element geochemistry and Sr/Nd/Pb isotope geochemistry studies indicate that the dike swarm was products of back-arc basin spreading ridge and the magma originated from the depleted mantle region which was metasomatized by LTLE-rich liquids/melts derived from subduction slab.展开更多

文摘Sm/Nd isotopic age determination showed that Xiongshan dike swarm was at 585.7 Ma±30 Ma. The trace element geochemistry and Sr/Nd/Pb isotope geochemistry studies indicate that the dike swarm was products of back-arc basin spreading ridge and the magma originated from the depleted mantle region which was metasomatized by LTLE-rich liquids/melts derived from subduction slab.
