The experiments were conducted in rapid quenched high-pressure vessel system.Two kinds of glass, used as starting meterial, were made from Dengfuxian coarse porphyritic biotite granite enriched in W (0. 45 wB% ) and Sn (0. 50 wB%) and Dachang granular biotitemuscovite granite enriched in W (0. 16 wB% ) and Sn (0. 13 wB%). The results of the experiments indicate that the quenched product glass contains no newly-formed minerals through observation under 200 times microscope and with determination of the X-rays diffraction. The final glass of each run consists of both lightedolor and dark-color parts which represent two phases of liquid-separated melt. The color of the light gIass varies with the composition of the systems. In the granite-KF-H2O and granite-NaCl-H2O systems, the light glass is colorless.In the granite-KP-H2O system, the light part is lightly brown. In the Rranite-LiF-H2O system, the light glass appears milkwhite. The color of the dark glass hardly varies with the different compositions of the systems, and appears darkbrown or grew-black. In tbe quenched glass, the dark part is dominant and takes a portion of more than 80 percent. The data of the compositions for the two portions of glass contains relatively much silica and less Fe2O3,FeO, TiO2, MgO, CaO. On the contact line between two phases of glass, there does not exist gradually varying zone of the composition, which indicates that complete liquid separation has taken place.展开更多

The pyroxene and hornblende megacrysts and cumulates were formed through the AFC process at depths ranging from 27 to 35 km.展开更多

Magma fOcontrols sulfur status and relative timing of Fe-Ti oxide saturation in mafic magmas, which may help clarify this issue. Taking the Emeishan LIP as a case, we calculated the magma fOof the high-Ti and low-Ti picrites based on the olivine-spinel oxygen barometer, and the partitioning of V in olivine. The obtained fOof the high-Ti series magma(FMQ + 1.1 to FMQ + 2.6) is higher than that of the low-Ti series magma(FMQ-0.5to FMQ + 0.5). The magma fOof the high-Ti and low-Ti picrites containing Fo > 90 olivine reveals that the mantle source of the high-Ti series is likely more oxidized than that of the low-Ti series. The results using the ’lambda REE’ approach show that the high-Ti series may have been derived from relatively oxidized mantle with garnet pyroxenite component. The S contents at sulfide saturation(SCSS) of the two series magmas were calculated based on liquid compositions obtained from the alpha Melts modeling, and the results show that the low-Ti series magma could easily attain the sulfide saturation as it has low fOwith S being dominantly as S. In contrast, the oxidized high-Ti series magma is difficult to attain the sulfide saturation, but could crystallize Fe-Ti oxides at magma MgO content of ~7.0 wt.%. Thus, contrasting magma fOof low-Ti and high-Ti series in plume-related LIPs may play an important role in producing two different styles of metallogeny.展开更多

The host rocks consist of quartz-diorite and tonalite associated with a dioritic intrusion. The enclaves show microgranular texture and the same mineralogy as their respective host with plagioclase, quartz and biotite. MMEs have a diorite to quartz-diorite composition and show geochemical characteristics mostly between their granitoid host and the diorite intrusion. Chondrite-normalized REE patterns of all samples are moderately fractionated [（La/Yb）N=2.1 to 12.9]. The MMEs display in part small negative Eu anomalies（Eu/Eu＊=0.54 to 0.99）, with enrichment of LILE and depletion of HFSE. The enclaves show emplacement depth of -4 to 6 km which is comparable with the host rocks. Moreover, the Hornblende-plagioclase equilibrium temprature of MMEs yields average temperatures of 795℃ which is slightly higher than the host ones. Identical mineral compositions and Nd-Sr-Pb isotopic features of MME-host granitoid pairs indicate interactions and parallel evolution of MME and enclosing granitoid in the Kashan plutons. Additionally, the geochemical and isotopic investigations of host and dioritic intrusions suggest a common source for their genesis. A thermal anomaly induced by underplated basic magma into a hot crust would have caused partial melting in the lower crust to generate Kashan granitoid rocks.展开更多

It is one of theactive volcanoes of the Cameroon Volcanic Line. Mount Cameroon meltinclusions are found in microdroplets trapped in the early minerals (olivines)from the pyroclastic products. The analysis of these melt inclusions allowedus to find primitive liquids compared to lavas. Major elements study ofthe magmatic inclusions, trapped in the most magnesian olivines (Mg#84-86) of Mount Cameroon revealed “primitive” liquids of basanite and alkalibasalt type with variable composition compared to the much more uniformbasalts of the magmatic series of Mount Cameroon. The study of thesetrapped liquids shows that: (1) the original primitive lavas did not undergothe process of evolution by FC, but rather underwent fundamentally (orexclusively) the process of partial melting;(2) the emitted lavas, evolvedessentially by FC;(3) the variations in the trace element contents of theprimitive liquids directly reflect a variation in the rate of partial melting ofa homogeneous mantelic source. The very high La/Yb ratios of the MountCameroon melt inclusions (> 20) characterize a garnet lherzolite source.Spectra of the melt inclusions show a negative anomaly or depletion in K,Rb and Ba as those of HIMU. The “primitive” liquids and lavas of MountCameroon represent a co-genetic sequence formed by varying degrees ofpartial melting of a source considered as homogeneous.展开更多

The experimental petrogenetic constraints （＇inverse＇ experiments） argue for no significant temperature differences between them. However, there are differences in major, minor and trace elements which characterise geochemical, not thermal, anomalies beneath ‘hot-spots＇. We suggest that diapiric upwelling from interfaces （redox contrasts） between old subducted slab and normal MOR basalt source mantle is the major reason for the observed characteristics of island chain or ‘hot-spot＇ volcanism. Intraplate basalts also include widely distributed volcanic centres containing lherzolite xenoliths, i.e. mantle-derived magmas. Inverse experiments on olivine basalt, alkali oli- vine basalt, olivine basanite, olivine nephelinite, olivine melilitite and olivine leucitite （lamproite） determined liquidus phases as a function of pressure, initially under anhydrous and CO2-absent conditions. Under C- and H-absent conditions, only tholeiites to alkali olivine basalts had O1 ＋ Opx 4-Cpx as high-pressure liquidus phases. Addition of H20 accessed olivine basanites at 2.5-3 GPa, ,- 1,200 ℃, but both CO2 and H20 were necessary to obtain saturation with O1, Opx, Cpx and Ga at 2.5-3.5 GPa for olivine nephelinite and olivine melilitite. The forward and inverse experimental studies are combined to formulate a petrogenetic grid for intraplate, ‘hot-spot＇ and MOR magmatism within the plate tectonics paradigm. The asthenosphere is geochemically zoned by slow upward migration of incipient melt. The solidus and phasestabilities of lherzolite with very small water contents （〈3,000 ppm） determine the thin plate behaviour of the oceanic lithosphere and thus the Earth＇s convection in the form of plate tectonics. There is no evidence from the parental magmas of MOR and ‘hot-spots＇ to support the ＇deep mantle thermal plume＇ hypothesis. The preferred alternative is the presence of old subducted slabs, relatively buoyant and oxidised with respect to MORB source mantle and suspended or upwelling in or below the lower asthenosphere （and thus detached from overlying plate movement）.展开更多

Different types of zoned plagioclase phenocrysts in basalts are also backscatter imaged, and major element profiles scanned and analyzed for microprobe. Basalts dredged from a restricted area have evolved to different extents (MgO=9.38wt%—6.76wt%). High MgO basalts are modeled for crystalliza-tion to MgO of about 7wt%, and resulted in the Ni contents (≈28 ppm) that are generally lower than that in observed basalts (>60 ppm). It suggests that low MgO basalts may have experienced more intensive magma mixing. High MgO (9.38wt%) basalt is modeled for self-"mixing-crystallization", and the high Ni contents in low MgO basalts can be generated in small scale and periodical self-mixing of new magma (high MgO). "Mixing-crystallization" processes that low MgO magmas experienced accord with recent 226Ra/230Th disequilibria studies for magma residence time, in which low MgO magmas have experi-enced more circles of "mixing-crystallization" in relatively longer residence time. Magma mixing is not homogeneous in magma chamber, however, low MgO magmas are closer to stable composition pro-duced by periodical "mixing-crystallization", which is also an important reason for magma diversity in East Pacific Rise. Zoned plagioclase phenocrysts can be divided into two types: with and without high An# cores, both of which have multiple reversed An# zones, suggesting periodical mixing of their host magmas. Cores of zoned plagioclase in low MgO (7.45wt%) basalt differ significantly with their mantle in An#, but are similar in An# with microlite cores (products of equilibrium crystallization) in high MgO (9.38wt%) basalt, which further shows that plagioclase phenocryst cores in low MgO basalts may have formed in their parental magmas before entering into the magma chamber.展开更多

文摘Systematical experimental study has been carried out on liquation (liquid seperation) of granitic silicate melt containing tungsten and tin at the conditions of 850℃ and 150 MPa. The experiments were conducted in rapid quenched high-pressure vessel system.Two kinds of glass, used as starting meterial, were made from Dengfuxian coarse porphyritic biotite granite enriched in W (0. 45 wB% ) and Sn (0. 50 wB%) and Dachang granular biotitemuscovite granite enriched in W (0. 16 wB% ) and Sn (0. 13 wB%). The results of the experiments indicate that the quenched product glass contains no newly-formed minerals through observation under 200 times microscope and with determination of the X-rays diffraction. The final glass of each run consists of both lightedolor and dark-color parts which represent two phases of liquid-separated melt. The color of the light gIass varies with the composition of the systems. In the granite-KF-H2O and granite-NaCl-H2O systems, the light glass is colorless.In the granite-KP-H2O system, the light part is lightly brown. In the Rranite-LiF-H2O system, the light glass appears milkwhite. The color of the dark glass hardly varies with the different compositions of the systems, and appears darkbrown or grew-black. In tbe quenched glass, the dark part is dominant and takes a portion of more than 80 percent. The data of the compositions for the two portions of glass contains relatively much silica and less Fe2O3,FeO, TiO2, MgO, CaO. On the contact line between two phases of glass, there does not exist gradually varying zone of the composition, which indicates that complete liquid separation has taken place.

文摘Primary or parental magmas act as probes to infer eruption and source temperatures for both mid-ocean ridge （MOR） and‘hot-spot＇ magmas （tholeiitic picrites）. The experimental petrogenetic constraints （＇inverse＇ experiments） argue for no significant temperature differences between them. However, there are differences in major, minor and trace elements which characterise geochemical, not thermal, anomalies beneath ‘hot-spots＇. We suggest that diapiric upwelling from interfaces （redox contrasts） between old subducted slab and normal MOR basalt source mantle is the major reason for the observed characteristics of island chain or ‘hot-spot＇ volcanism. Intraplate basalts also include widely distributed volcanic centres containing lherzolite xenoliths, i.e. mantle-derived magmas. Inverse experiments on olivine basalt, alkali oli- vine basalt, olivine basanite, olivine nephelinite, olivine melilitite and olivine leucitite （lamproite） determined liquidus phases as a function of pressure, initially under anhydrous and CO2-absent conditions. Under C- and H-absent conditions, only tholeiites to alkali olivine basalts had O1 ＋ Opx 4-Cpx as high-pressure liquidus phases. Addition of H20 accessed olivine basanites at 2.5-3 GPa, ,- 1,200 ℃, but both CO2 and H20 were necessary to obtain saturation with O1, Opx, Cpx and Ga at 2.5-3.5 GPa for olivine nephelinite and olivine melilitite. The forward and inverse experimental studies are combined to formulate a petrogenetic grid for intraplate, ‘hot-spot＇ and MOR magmatism within the plate tectonics paradigm. The asthenosphere is geochemically zoned by slow upward migration of incipient melt. The solidus and phasestabilities of lherzolite with very small water contents （〈3,000 ppm） determine the thin plate behaviour of the oceanic lithosphere and thus the Earth＇s convection in the form of plate tectonics. There is no evidence from the parental magmas of MOR and ‘hot-spots＇ to support the ＇deep mantle thermal plume＇ hypothesis. The preferred alternative is the presence of old subducted slabs, relatively buoyant and oxidised with respect to MORB source mantle and suspended or upwelling in or below the lower asthenosphere （and thus detached from overlying plate movement）.

文摘The links between the adakitic rocks and Cu-Au mineralization have long been argued.This study investigates petrogenesis and its link to mineralization potential by a series of in-situ geochronological and geochemical signatures of apatite and zircon in three ore-related intrusions and one-barren intrusion in the Middle-Lower Yangtze River Metallogenic Belt(MLYRB).Zircon U-Pb dating yield ages of 139–143 Ma and 121 Ma for the ore-related and ore-barren intrusions,respectively.The ore-related rocks have higher apatite Sr/Y(1.57–9.69),(La/Yb)_(N)(16.7–159.5),andδEu(0.45–0.74)than the ore-barren rocks of 0.57–1.02,19.3–24.1 and 0.40–0.45,respectively,indicating the former has an adakitic affinity,while the latter has a non-adakitic affinity.The ore-related rocks have enriched zircon Hf isotopes withε_(Hf)(t)values of-15.9 to-5.5 and T_(DMC)ages of 2408–1655 Ma and apatite Sr-Nd isotopes,indicating that the ore-related magmas were mainly originated from partial melting of subducted oceanic crust.The orebarren rocks have higherε_(Hf)(t)values of-6.6 to-4.6 and lower T_(DMC)ages of 1598–1469 Ma and apatite Sr-Nd isotopes,indicating a lithospheric mantle source.The ore-related rocks have higher oxygen fugacity of mean∆FMQ+2.00 and X_(F)/X_(OH)of 8.36–175 than the ore-barren rocks of mean∆FMQ+1.43 and3.72–4.96.It was inferred that magma source,water content,and oxygen fugacity emerge as critical factors governing the regional Cu-Au mineralization potential.

文摘Thirty-six basalt samples from near East Pacific Rise 13°N are analyzed for major and trace elements. Different types of zoned plagioclase phenocrysts in basalts are also backscatter imaged, and major element profiles scanned and analyzed for microprobe. Basalts dredged from a restricted area have evolved to different extents (MgO=9.38wt%—6.76wt%). High MgO basalts are modeled for crystalliza-tion to MgO of about 7wt%, and resulted in the Ni contents (≈28 ppm) that are generally lower than that in observed basalts (>60 ppm). It suggests that low MgO basalts may have experienced more intensive magma mixing. High MgO (9.38wt%) basalt is modeled for self-"mixing-crystallization", and the high Ni contents in low MgO basalts can be generated in small scale and periodical self-mixing of new magma (high MgO). "Mixing-crystallization" processes that low MgO magmas experienced accord with recent 226Ra/230Th disequilibria studies for magma residence time, in which low MgO magmas have experi-enced more circles of "mixing-crystallization" in relatively longer residence time. Magma mixing is not homogeneous in magma chamber, however, low MgO magmas are closer to stable composition pro-duced by periodical "mixing-crystallization", which is also an important reason for magma diversity in East Pacific Rise. Zoned plagioclase phenocrysts can be divided into two types: with and without high An# cores, both of which have multiple reversed An# zones, suggesting periodical mixing of their host magmas. Cores of zoned plagioclase in low MgO (7.45wt%) basalt differ significantly with their mantle in An#, but are similar in An# with microlite cores (products of equilibrium crystallization) in high MgO (9.38wt%) basalt, which further shows that plagioclase phenocryst cores in low MgO basalts may have formed in their parental magmas before entering into the magma chamber.

文摘Geophysical and geochemical evidence revealed that certain amounts of water are stored in the Earth’s interior,and its distribution exhibits temporal and spatial differences.Recent studies indicate that the H_(2)O-in-zircon has a potential to reveal magma water content.Using secondary ion mass spectrometry(SIMS),we analyzed the zircon water content and oxygen isotopes in granitoids(two-mica granite,quartz monzonite,diorite,and granodiorite)from southern Tibet.The results are used to explore the diversity of water content in crust-derived magmas,which is also supported by the LA-ICPMS zircon trace element analysis.There are low zircon water contents for two partial melting products of the ancient crust(peak at 85 and300 ppm,respectively).Meanwhile,there are high H_(2)O-in-zircon peaks(435 and 475 ppm,respectively)for two partial melting products of the juvenile crust.The calculated radiation damage accumulation in these zircon grains is below 3×10^(15)αdecay events mg^(–1),suggesting that the zircon grains are well crystalline.There is no correlation between REE+Y and H+P,indicating that the mechanism of charge balance for water uptaking into zircon,in which the excess of REE+Y to P controls Hcontent,is not applicable to the studied samples.The degree of magma fractionation cannot account for the zircon water content variation,because there is no co-variation between zircon Hf and H_(2)O contents.Similarly,the degree of partial melting was unlikely to be responsible for the H_(2)O-in-zircon distinction.We interpret that the H_(2)O-in-zircon variation reflects the influence of melting mode(dehydration vs.water-fluxed)and water content in the crustal source.In the Late Devonian,dehydration melting of the crustal rocks was facilitated at elevated temperatures,which produced magmas with the lowest water contents.Water-fluxed melting of the ancient crust would produce relatively“drier”magma than water-fluxed melting of the juvenile crust.

文摘In dry silicate magmas equilibrated at or below FMQ buffer,sulfur is present mainly as S^(2-).The solution of sulfur can be represented by the reaction: FeO+(1/2)S_2=FeS+(1/2)O_2,assuming that activity of FeS in the coexisting sulfide liquid is close to unity,and that the activity of FeO in the silicate liquid fits the modified quasi-lattice melt model,a thermodynamical model for predicting solubility of sul- fur in dry silicate magmas has been established in this paper by fitting 147 experimentally determined sul- fur solubility data from literature.The following result is obtained:ΔH°=(158.718±3.970)J/mol, ΔS°=(33.361±2.682)J/K·mol,and ΔV°=(0.524±0.046)·10^(-5)J/Pa·mol.The model canbe used to predict solubility of sulfur,and to simulate sulfide liquid immiscibility in natural magmatic processes.

文摘1.Introduction The oceanic arc basalts and continental arc andesites are typical products of subduction zone magmatism(Straub et al.,2011;Zheng et al.,2020).However,there has been controversy over the lithology of their magma sources.As this issue is closely related to both physicochemical and geodynamic mechanisms of subduction zone magmatism,it has become one of the key issues in the study of convergent plate margins(Zheng et al.,2022).

文摘The Duanfengshan deposit is a newly discovered large pegmatitic-type Nb-Ta deposit in the central section of the Jiangnan orogenic belt,South China.There are three types of pegmatite in the Duanfengshan area:microcline pegmatite,microcline-albite pegmatite and albite pegmatite.Although several geological,geochronological and geochemical studies of this deposit have been carried out,the relationships between the evolution degree of different types of pegmatites and mineralization are still unclear.We address this problem through systematic petrographic and geochemical studies of muscovite and feldspars from two representative pegmatite veins,the No.328 microcline-albite pegmatite vein,and the No.610 albite pegmatite vein.The results of electron probe microanalysis(EPMA)and laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry(LA-ICP-MS)analyses of muscovite and K-feldspar reveal that K/Rb ratios decrease with increasing Rb,Cs,Ga,Nb and Ta contents alongside decreasing Ba and Sr contents,suggesting that magmatic differentiation played a dominant role in rare metal mineralization.A comparison of the analytical results of this study with those from rare metal pegmatites globally suggests that the No.610 vein has a high mineralization potential,whereas the No.328 vein has relatively low mineralization potential.The results from this study may be applied to the evaluation of mineralization potential for other pegmatite veins in the Duanfengshan area and other rare metal pegmatite fields with similar geological settings.
