The Tietonggou and Jinling intrusions are typically representatives. LA-ICP-MS zircon U-Pb dating, major and trace element and Sr-Nd isotopic compositions of the Mesozoic intrusive rocks from western Shandong, eastern China, were analyzed. The weighted mean 106^pb/ 238^U ages from LA-ICP-MS zircon U-Pb dating results for early norite-diorite, late pyroxene-diorite from the Tietonggou intrusion and biotite-diorite from the Jinling intrusion are （131.4±4.9） Ma（n=15）, （134. 5±2.3） Ma（n=13）, and （132.8±4. 2） Ma（n=12）, respectively, implying that they were formed in the Early Cretaceous. The weighted mean 207^pb/ 204^Pb ages for round zircons from late pyroxene-diorite in the Tietonggou intrusion is （ 2 513 ± 54） Ma（ n= 8）, suggesting that the basement of the North China craton should exist in the research area. The high-Mg diorites are characterized by enrichment in MgO, Na20, and light rare earth elements （LREE）, and they are poor in heavy rare earth elements （HREE） and high field strength elements （HFSE）, being similar to adakite. The existence of the mantle peridotite xenoliths with a high-Mg feature for these intrusive rocks implies that their primary magma should be derived from the upper mantle. However, Sr-Nd isotopic composi- tions （Is： 0.704 75--0.707 15;ENd （130 Ma） values： --3.95 to -- 13.30）, depletion in HFSE, and the occurrence of Archean inherited zircons suggest that crustal materials could be involved in the derivation of the primary magma. The compositional difference between the diorites from the Tietonggou and Jinling intrusions could be attributed to those of magma sources and degrees of partial melting. The Early Cretaceous high-Mg diorites are considered to have been formed by the mixed melting of the delaminated lithosphere （lithospheric mantle ＋ crust） and asthenosphere, based on their geochemistry, the mantlederived xenoliths, and the Early Mesozoic lithospheric evolutionary history of the eastern North China craton.展开更多

In the meantime, the volcanic rocks also have the obvious characteristics of Crust-source material in rare earth, trace element characteristics with high ∑ REE （ 158.78 × 10^-6 - 359.66 × 10^-6 ）, high （La/Yb） N （ 14.61 - 29.60）, high La/Nb（2.37 - 7.52） and high Ba/Nb （67.58- 205.96）, obvious positive anomaly of Pb and negative anomaly of Nb, Ta in trace element spider-gram. In Sr-Nd-Pb isotope the （^87Sr/^86Sr）i ratio is higher than 0.706 and the εNd（ t ） ratio is from - 3.4 to - 13, both reflect enriched Mantle characteristics. The characteristics above of the volcanic rocks combined with the content of Sr, Ba, Y, Yb and the ratio of Sr/Y show that the volcanic rocks have the property of the Sanukite rocks in Setouchi Japan beside subduction zone, and illuminate that the Sanukite rocks can be formed not only in island-arc near subduction zone but also in intro-plate. The analysis indicates that the high-Mg volcanic rocks in the Sihetun area result from the collective function of mantle-derived lava and crust-source materials. The result illuminates that the West Liaoning region is very special in tectonic geochemical background in Cretaceous in East China, and is an ideal region for us to further study the characteristics of magmatic activity as well as the process of Crust-Mantle interaction in Eastern China.展开更多

The zircons from the high-Mg diorite exhibit striped absorption and oscillatory growth zoning in the cathodoluminescence （CL） images, and have high Th/U ratios （0. 05-0.9）, indicating a magma origin. Zircon LA-ICP-MS U-Pb dating indicates that 206pb/238U ages of 12 spots of zircons are between 167 Ma and 178 Ma, yielding a weighted mean 206pb/238U age of 172 ＋ 2 Ma （MSWD =4. 1 ）, which represents the forming age of the high-Mg dioritic dike, i. e. Middle Jurassic. Geochemically, the samples have SiO2 =55.4-60. 6 wt. % , Na20 =2. 2-2.76 wt. % , K20 = 1.32-2. 02 wt. % and （Na2O ＋ K2O） =3.82--4. 47 wt. %, belonging to sub-alkaline series and displaying a calc-alkaline evolutionary trend. They are characterized by high MgO （4. 75-6.85 wt. % ）, Mg# （55-61）, Cr（130-262 ppm）, Ni（63-130 ppm）, Sr（568-857 ppm）, and Ba（484-1 130 ppm） contents, with geochemical features analogous to those of high-Mg adakites. They show variable end （t） values （ - 1.3 to - 3.9） , with a weighted value of - 2. 7, which plot intermediately between the field of the ancient continental crust and the depleted mantle source, indicating that both the lower crust and mantle source are necessary for the generation of the parent magma of the Haicheng high-Mg diorites. The Haicheng high-Mg dioritic dike in the Liaodong Peninsula and the Jurassic magmatism in the eastern North China Craton formed under a continental crustal thickening setting that may be related to subduction of the Paleo-Pacific oceanic plate.展开更多

Their origin remains strongly debated. In order to examine and provide direct evidence for previous assumptions about HMA＇s genesis inferred from petrolog- ical and geochemical investigations, we performed reaction experiments between tonalitic melt and mantle olivine on a six-anvil apparatus at high-temperature of 1250-1400℃ and high-pressure of 2.0-5.0 GPa. Our experiments in this work simulated the interaction between the tonalitic melt derived from partial melting of eclogitized lower crust foundering into the Earth＇s mantle and mantle peridotite. The experimental results show that the reacted melts have very similar variations in chemical compositions to the HMAs within the North China Craton. Therefore, this interaction is probably an important pro- cess to generate the HMAs within crations.展开更多

文摘Field-and petrographic investigations,together with microanalytical major-and traceelement studies,were carried out on clinopyroxene and amphibole from high-Mg diorite in the subduction-related Chelyabinsk granitic massif to understand its petrogenesis and source.The clinopyroxene composition(high Mg#,Cr-content,sum of REE and Ti/Eu ratio;depletion in HREE;negative Eu-anomaly)indicates that it formed from a reduced melt derived from a mantle source metasomatized by fluids/melts having crustal affinity.Melt compositions in equilibrium with clinopyroxene and amphibole were calculated using solid/liquid partition coefficients.The high Nb/Y and Zr/Y ratio values of a liquid simulated from clinopyroxene,which appears to have very similar characteristics to sanukitoid melts,indicate a low degree of melting of the mantle source.Melt simulated from amphibole is more evolved and more felsic(dacitic).It displays a geochemical“amphibole fractionation”signature,indicating the peritectic transformation of clinopyroxene to amphibole in the lower crust.Rock textures and major element mineral compositions suggest that further amphibole was precipitated directly from the melt in the middle crust.The results show that the Chelyabinsk highMg diorite was probably formed as a cumulate from sanukitoid-like melt during its ascent and cooling below dacitic liquidus inside the amphibole stability field.

文摘Zircon LA-ICP-MS U-Pb age, geochemical and Nd isotopic data are presented for a newly recognized high-Mg dioritic dike from Haicheng, Liaodong Peninsula, NE China, to constrain its petrogenesis. The zircons from the high-Mg diorite exhibit striped absorption and oscillatory growth zoning in the cathodoluminescence （CL） images, and have high Th/U ratios （0. 05-0.9）, indicating a magma origin. Zircon LA-ICP-MS U-Pb dating indicates that 206pb/238U ages of 12 spots of zircons are between 167 Ma and 178 Ma, yielding a weighted mean 206pb/238U age of 172 ＋ 2 Ma （MSWD =4. 1 ）, which represents the forming age of the high-Mg dioritic dike, i. e.

They are characterized by high MgO （4. 75-6.85 wt. % ）, Mg# （55-61）, Cr（130-262 ppm）, Ni（63-130 ppm）, Sr（568-857 ppm）, and Ba（484-1 130 ppm） contents, with geochemical features analogous to those of high-Mg adakites. They show variable end （t） values （ - 1.3 to - 3.9） , with a weighted value of - 2. 7, which plot intermediately between the field of the ancient continental crust and the depleted mantle source, indicating that both the lower crust and mantle source are necessary for the generation of the parent magma of the Haicheng high-Mg diorites. The Haicheng high-Mg dioritic dike in the Liaodong Peninsula and the Jurassic magmatism in the eastern North China Craton formed under a continental crustal thickening setting that may be related to subduction of the Paleo-Pacific oceanic plate.

文摘The granodiorites,monzogranites and diorites are widely developed in the Balikun area of Eastern Tianshan Orogen.Of which,LA–ICP–MS zircon U-Pb isotopic dating from the diorites revealed that they were emplaced at 327~333 Ma,representing an important period of magmatism in the Early Carboniferous.Geochemically,they are characterized by moderate SiO2(51.33–62.48 wt%),high but variable MgO(2.04–11.16 wt%,average 5.35),higher Mg#(40–73)and TiO2(0.67–1.29 wt%),Na2O/K2O(1.39–2.95)as well as variable Cr(2.49–675 ppm)and Ni(1.31–174 ppm),showing a geochemistry similar to those of high-Mg diorites or sanukitoids.In addition,they are enriched in the LILE,poor HFSE with an evident negative Nb anomalies and a REE pattern of moderate fractionator between LREE and HREE without or weak negative Eu anomalies.TheirεHf(t)are positive(+3.63–+15.65),suggesting a source from the depleted mantle.In addition,they have high TiO2 and Pb,and large quantity of amphibolite and biotite,indicating that they were most likely derived from the partial melting of depleted mantle metasomatized by the slabderived melt under a hydrous condition.Consequently,combined with the contemporary volcanics and granitoids formed in the island arc settings,we proposed that the subduction was continued till Early Carboniferous in the Bogda-Harlik tectonic belt.After that,wide occurrence of the post-collisional A-type granites and mafic-ultramafic intrusions indicate this tectonic belt entered the post-collisional environment from Late Carboniferous to Permian.

文摘The high-Mg mafic dykes from the Singhbhum Granitoid Complex in East India have geochemical characteristics[e.g.,enrichment of the large ion lithophile elements and light rare earth elements(LREEs) relative to high field strength elements(HFSEs):high-MgO(>8%),high-SiO_2(>52%),low-TiO_2(<0.5%),and high CaO/Al_2O_3(>0.58)]similar to those found in boninitic/noritic rocks.Their high percentage of orthopyroxene as a mafic mineral and of plagioclase as a felsic mineral,and normative hypersthene content greater than diopside content are also indications of their boninitic/noritic affinity.On a triangular diagram of MgO-CaO-Al_2O_3 and on binary diagrams of Ti/V vs Ti/Sc and TiO_2 vs Zr,these samples show geochemical similarities with Phanerozoic boninites and Paleoproterozoic high-Mg norites.On major and trace element variation diagrams,these dykes show a normal crystallization trend and their Nb/La(<0.5) and Nb/Ce(<0.21) values lower than average bulk crust(0.69 and0.33,respectively) suggest no crustal contamination.Their low values of Rb/Sr(0.11-0.41) and Rb/Ba(0.10-0.27)also suggest little or no effect of post magmatic processes.Their TiO_2(0.27-0.50),Al_2O_3/TiO_2(19.30-42.48),CaO/TiO_2(12.96-32.52),and Ti/V(12-18) values indicate derivation from a depleted mantle source under oxidizing conditions such as a mantle wedge.Ni vs Zr modeling shows that the studied high-Mg dykes were generated by25-30%melting of a refractory mantle source.Enrichment of Rb,Th,U,Pb,Sr,and LREEs,and depletion of HFSEs—especially Nb,P,Ti,Zr—on primitive mantle—and chondrite-normalized spider diagrams,respectively,are clear signals that the slab-derived component played an important role in the formation of melts for these rocks in a supra-subduction zone setting.

文摘High-Mg andesites(HMAs)typically originate in subduction-related tectonic settings,including active continental margins and island arcs,and studies of HMAs can constrain the tectonic evolution of the South China Block and Paleo-Tethyan Ocean.This paper presents new chronological and geochemical data for high-Mg gabbroic diorites in the Funing area,southern South China.The gabbroic diorites yield ages of 254-249 Ma,and have moderate SiO2 contents(51.3%-57.8%),high MgO contents(4.6%-10.2%)and Mg^(#)values(52-75),enrichment in large-ion lithophile elements and light rare earth elements,and depletion in high-field-strength elements-collectively displaying geochemical signatures typical of sanukites.The gabbroic diorites have radiogenic initial Sr and Pb isotopic compositions,and negativeεNd(t)andεHf(t)values.These characteristics distinguish the Funing gabbroic diorites from subduction-related igneous rocks in the Paleo-Pacific tectonic domain.Instead,they are isotopically similar to HMAs and basalts along the Paleo-Tethys suture.We propose the high-Mg gabbroic diorites and basaltic andesites in Funing area share a common mantle source,linked to subduction and rollback of the Paleo-Tethyan plate beneath the South China Block,which triggered back-arc rifting and partial melting of the metasomatized lithospheric mantle during the Late Permian to Early Triassic.

文摘85 volcanic rocks of the Yixian Formation from the Sihetun type section werecollected and analyzed for geochemical and isotopic compositions.Major element compositionsindicate that the Sihetun volcanic rocks are high magnesium andesites with some basalts occurring atthe bottom of section.The Sihetun high magnesium andesites(SiO_(2)=52.82-59.31 wt%,Al_2O_(3)=14.15-16.35wt%)show many characteristics of adakites such as depletion in heavy rare-earth elements(HREE;Yb=1.03-1.88μg/g)and Y(12-20μg/g)and high Sr(620-1323μg/g)and Sr/Y(32-88),withhigh La_N/Yb_N ratio(10-25).They share similar major and trace element characteristics to volcanicrocks from the Xinglonggou Formation except their lower Nd isotope ratios(^(143)Nd/^(144)Nd(130Ma)=0.5118-0.5119,ε_(Nd)(130Ma)=-11.6-13.8,^(87)Sr/^(86)Sr(130 Ma)=0.7058-0.7064.They were interpreted in a way that eclogite that formed at the base of thickened Archean lowercrust of the North China craton foundered into the convecting mantle and subsequently melted andinteracted with peridotite.However,compared to the Xinglonggou volcanic rocks,the source of theSihetun magma contained more ancient continental crustal material in order to explain its evolved Ndisotopes.The age of the Sihetun Formation was 120 to 130 Ma,and this indicates that delaminationlasted to the early Cretaceous period.The Sr contents and Sr/Y ratios of the Sihetun high-Mgandesites show significant negative correlations with SiO_(2)for samples with SiO_(2)】56%.Thesesuggest that the Sr and Sr/Y values were reduced due to fractional crystallization of plagioclase.Accordingly,the effect of crystallization on volcanic Sr and Sr/Y ratio has to be taken intoaccount.

文摘High-Mg （Mg#〉45） andesites （HMA） within cratons attract great attention from geologists. Their origin remains strongly debated. In order to examine and provide direct evidence for previous assumptions about HMA＇s genesis inferred from petrolog- ical and geochemical investigations, we performed reaction experiments between tonalitic melt and mantle olivine on a six-anvil apparatus at high-temperature of 1250-1400℃ and high-pressure of 2.0-5.0 GPa. Our experiments in this work simulated the interaction between the tonalitic melt derived from partial melting of eclogitized lower crust foundering into the Earth＇s mantle and mantle peridotite. The experimental results show that the reacted melts have very similar variations in chemical compositions to the HMAs within the North China Craton. Therefore, this interaction is probably an important pro- cess to generate the HMAs within crations.

文摘Since the Paleozoic,the tectonic evolution of northeastern Eurasia has been primarily influenced by the Paleo-Asian Ocean and the Paleo-Pacific tectonic domains.However,the spatial and temporal frameworks,as well as the timing of the tectonic transition between these two oceanic domains,remain unclear.For addressing these issues,we present petrological,geochronological,and geochemical data for andesite and sandstone samples from the Seluohe Group along the Jilin-Yanji Suture between the Jiamusi-Khanka Block and the North China Craton.The geochemical results indicate that the andesite sample is high-Mg andesite.Its magma source was generated by the metasomatized mantle wedge influenced by fluids derived from the subducted slab in a continental island arc setting.The high-Mg andesite gives the crystallization ages of Early Triassic(249±3 Ma).The sandstone is immature greywacke with a maximum depositional age of Early Triassic(247±1 Ma),and its sediments primarily originate from concurrent magmatic rocks within a juvenile continental arc.Based on our new findings,we propose that the Seluohe Group represents an Early Triassic volcanic-sedimentary association with continental island arc characteristics associated with the southwestward subduction of the Heilongjiang Ocean.We identified a sedimentary basin intimately associated with one or more continental arcs along the northeastern edge of the North China Craton.We suggest that the southwestward subduction of the Jilin-Heilongjiang Ocean in the Early Mesozoic accounts for this continental arc setting.There is a distinct temporal gap between the closure of the Paleo-Asian Ocean(ca.260 Ma)and the onset of Paleo-Pacific plate subduction(234–220 Ma),which is essentially coeval with the southwestward subduction of the Jilin-Heilongjiang Ocean between 255 Ma and 239 Ma.
