We present zircon Hf isotopic compositions, whole-rock major and trace element compositions of the Fengshun complex, located in eastern Guangdong Province, South China. The Fengshun complex is a multi-stage magmatic intrusion. It is composed of two main units, i.e., the Mantoushan（MTS） syeno-monzogranites, alkali feldspar granites and the Hulutian（HLT） alkali feldspar granites. LA-ICPMS zircon dating shows that the complex emplaced in 166–161 and 139±2 Ma, respectively. Geochemically, the MTS granites show relatively various geochemical compositions with low REE contents（87.76×10-6–249.71×10-6）, Rb/Sr ratios（1.19–58.93）, pronounced Eu negative anomaly（0.01–0.37） and low Nb/Ta ratios（2.40–6.82）. In contrast, the HLT granites exhibit relatively stable geochemical characteristics with high REE contents（147.35×10-6– 282.17×10-6）, Rb/Sr ratios（2.05–10.30） and relatively high Nb/Ta ratios（4.45–13.00）. The isotopic data of the MTS granites display relatively enriched values, with ISr varying from 0.708 2 to 0.709 7, εNd（t） from-7.8 to-6.9 and εHf（t） from-7.4 to-3.2, in comparison with those of the HLT which are ISr=0.703 05–0.704 77, εNd（t）=-5–-3.4 and εHf（t）=-0.7–1.8）. The two-stage model ages of the MTS granites（T2DM（Nd）=1.51–1.59 Ga and T2DM（Hf）=1.26–1.48 Ga） are also higher than those of the HLT granites（T2DM（Nd）=1.21–1.34 Ga and T2DM（Hf）=0.96–1.10 Ga）. Thus the MTS and HLT granites might originate from different sources. The former is more likely derived from partial melting of Meso-Proterozoic basement triggered by upwelling of asthenosphere and/or underplate of the basaltic magma and then extensive fractional crystallisation, similar to the genesis of Early Yanshanian granitoids of the EW-trending tectono-magmatism belt in the Nanling range. In comparison, the latter might have involved with asthenosphere component, similar to the Early Cretaceous granitoids of NE-NNE-trending granitoid-volcanic belt in coastal region, southeastern China. We propose that the MTS granites were mainly formed in Paleo-Tethyan post-orogenic extensional tectonic setting whereas the HLT granites were formed in the back-arc extensional tectonic setting. The period at 139 Ma represents the initial time of roll-back of the paleo-Pacific Plate in SE-trending.展开更多

The results showed that the volume fraction of carbide M7C3 was more than sixty percent, and the relative wear resistance of the coating tested on a block-on-ring dry sliding tester at constant load （100 N） and variable loads （from 100 to 300 N） respectively was about 9 and 14 times higher than that of non-reinforced a-Fe coating. In addition, under constant load condition the friction coefficients （FCs） of two coatings increased first and then decreased with increasing sliding distance. However, under variable loads condition the FCs of non-reinforced a-Fe based coating increased gradually, while that of HVF MTC3 reinforced coating decreased as the load exceeded 220 N. The worn surface of non-reinforced a-Fe based coating was easily deformed and grooved, while that of the HVF M7C3 reinforced coating was difficult to be deformed and grooved.展开更多

However, the underlying mechanisms for the ultrahigh strength of those nanocomposites with high volume fraction(> 10 vol.%) nanoparticles are short of experimental research. In this study, the strengthening mechanisms of high strength Al matrix nanocomposite reinforced with 15 vol.% Al_(2)O_(3) nanoparticles were investigated experimentally and analyzed theoretically. The results show that the thermal mismatch induced geometrically necessary dislocations exhibit a negligible strengthening effect, because of their low density in the nanocomposite that is contradiction to the conventional dislocation punch model. Orowan mechanism makes a major strengthening contribution in view of the deformation process dominated by nanoparticle-dislocation interactions due to the extreme pinning effect of nanoparticles on dislocation motion. In addition, the several mechanisms including grain boundary strengthening, load transfer strengthening, and elastic modulus mismatch induced dislocation strengthening contribute to the strength increase.展开更多

The superconducting (SC) NbTi/Cu strands for the coils have a quite low copper fraction (0.58). To increase the ratio of the limiting current Vs. critical current for the cable in conduit conductor (CICC), the first-stage subcable consists of several copper strands twisted around a SC composite one. The copper strand diameter is different from the SC one. Based on Bottura's CICC design approach we take the product of total copper cross-section and wetted perimeter as one of the key design parameters to meet with stability margin requirement. The product reaches 114 cm3 for 15.5 kA TF CICC at operating temperature of 4.2 K and 139 cm3 for 15 kA PF CICC at 3.8 K to obtain stability margins of 280 and 700 mJ/cm3, respectively.展开更多

According to present knowledge, granite shows a great deal of heterogeneity in terms of its texture,structure, mineral species and geochemical compositions at different scales from small dike to large batholith. However, the reasons for these variations are not well understood although numerous interpretations have been proposed. The key point of this debate is whether granitic magma can be effectively differentiated through fractional crystallization, and, if so, what kind of crystallization occurred during the magmatic evolution. Although granitic magma has high viscosity because of its elevated SiO2 content, we agree that fractional crystallization is effectively processed during its evolution based on the evidence from field investigation,mineral species and its chemical variations, and geochemical compositions. These data indicate that crystal settling by gravitation is not the only mechanism dominating granitic differentiation. On the contrary, flow segregation or dynamic sorting may be more important. Accordingly, granite can be divided into unfractionated, fractionated(including weakly fractionated and highly fractionated) and cumulated types, according to the differentiation degree. Highly fractionated granitic magmas are generally high in primary temperature or high with various volatiles during the later stage, which make the fractional crystallization much easier than the common granitic melts. In addition, effective magmatic differentiation can be also expected when the magma emplaced along a large scale of extensional structure. Highly fractionated granitic magma is easily contaminated by country rocks due to its relatively prolonged crystallization time. Thus, granites do not always reflect the characteristics of the source areas and the physical and chemical conditions of the primary magma. We proposed that highly fractionated granites are an important sign indicating compositional maturity of the continental crust, and they are also closely related to the rare-elemental(metal) mineralization of W,Sn, Nb, Ta, Li, Be, Rb, Cs, REEs, etc.展开更多

Huangshadong(HSD) is located in south-eastern South China Block, where closely spaced hot springs accompany outcrops of Mesozoic granites. New data on whole-rock geochemistry, zircon U-Pb geochronology, and zircon Lu-Hf isotopes are presented, to study the petrogenesis and tectonic evolution of the granites, and to explore the relationship between granites and geothermal anomalies. Zircon U-Pb isotopes display three periods of granites in the HSD area: Indosinian(ca. 253 Ma, G4) muscovite-bearing monzonitic granite, early Yanshanian(ca. 175–155 Ma, G5 and G3) monzonitic granite and granodiorite, and late Yanshanian(ca. 140 Ma, G1 and G2) biotite monzonitic granite. In petrogenetic type, granites of the three periods are I-type granite. Among them, G1, G2, G3, and G4 are characterized by high fractionation, with high values of SiO2, alkalis, Ga/Al, and Rb/Sr, and depletion in Sr, Ba, Zr, Nb, Ti, REEs, with low(La/Yb)N, Nb/Ta, and Zr/Hf ratios and negative Eu anomalies. In terms of tectonic setting, 253 Ma G4 may be the product of partial melting of the ancient lower crust under post-orogenic extensional tectonics, as the closure of the Paleo-Tethys Ocean resulted in an intracontinental orogeny. At 175 Ma, the subduction of the Pacific Plate became the dominant tectonic system, and low-angle subduction of the Paleo-Pacific Plate facilitated partial melting of the subducted oceanic crust and basement to generate the hornblende-bearing I-type granodiorite. As the dip angle of the subducting plate increased, the continental arc tectonic setting was transformed to back-arc extension, inducing intense partial melting of the lower crust at ca. 158 Ma and resulting in the most frequent granitic magmatic activity in the South China hinterland. When slab foundering occurred at ca. 140 Ma, underplating of mantle-derived magmas caused melting of the continental crust, generating extensive highly fractionated granites in HSD. Combining the granitic evolution of HSD and adjacent areas and radioactive heat production rates, it is suggested that highly fractionated granites are connected to the enrichments in U and Th with magma evolution. The high radioactive heat derived from the Yanshanian granites is an important part of the crustal heat, which contributes significantly to the terrestrial heat flow. Drilling ZK8 reveals deep, ca. 140 Ma granite, which implies the heat source of the geothermal anomalies is mainly the concealed Yanshanian granites, combining the granite distribution on the surface.展开更多

The rock types are mainly biotite-granite. Zircon LA-ICP-MS U-Pb dating indicates that the Kejie pluton emplaced at about 80-77 Ma, Late Cretaceous. The Kejie pluton samples are characterized by high SiO2 （71.68%-72.47%）, K2O （4.73%-5.54%）, total alkali （K2O ＋ Na2O = 8.21%-8.53%）, K2O/Na2O ratios （1.36-1.94） and low P2O5 （0.13%-0.17%）, with A/CNK of 1.025-1.055; enriched in U, Th, and K, depleted in Ba, Nb, St, Ti, P and Eu. They are highly fractionated, slightly peraluminous 1-type granite. The two samples of the Kejie pluton give a large variation of εHf（t） values （-5.04 to 1.96） and Hf isotope crustal model ages of 1.16-1.5 Ga. Zircon Hf isotopes and zircon saturation temperatures of whole-rock （801℃-823℃） show that the mantle-derived materials maybe have played a vital role in the generation of the Kejie pluton. The Kejie pluton was most likely generated in a setting associated with the eastward subduction of the neo-Tethys ocean, where intrusion of mantle wedge basaltic magmas in the crust caused the anatexis of the latter, forming hybrid melts, which subsequently experienced high-degree fractional crystallization.展开更多

Consequently, for understanding terrestrial continent development, it is of great significance to investigate the formation and evolution of granite.Crystal fractionation is one of principal magma evolution mechanisms. Nevertheless, it is controversial whether crystal fractionation can effectively proceed in felsic magma systems because of the high viscosity and non-Newtonian behavior associated with granitic magmas. In this paper, we focus on the physical processes and evaluate the role of crystal fractionation in the evolution of granitic magmas during non-transport processes, i.e., in magma chambers and after emplacement. Based on physical calculations and analyses, we suggest that general mineral particles can settle only at tiny speed(~10^(-9)–10^(-7) m s^(-1))in a granitic magma body due to high viscosity of the magma; however, the cumulating can be interrupted with convection in magma chambers, and the components of magma chambers will tend to be homogeneous. Magma convection ceases once the magma chamber develops into a mush(crystallinity, F>~40–50%). The interstitial melts can be extracted by hindered settling and compaction, accumulating gradually and forming a highly silicic melt layer. The high silica melts can further evolve into high-silica granite or high-silica rhyolite. At various crystallinities, multiple rejuvenation of the mush and the following magma intrusion may generate a granite complex with various components. While one special type of granites, represented by the South China lithium-and fluoride-rich granite, has lower viscosity and solidus relative to general granitic magmas, and may form vertical zonation in mineral-assemblage and composition through crystal fractionation. Similar fabrics in general intrusions that show various components on small lengthscales are not the result of gravitational settling. Rather, the flowage differentiation may play a key role. In general, granitic magma can undergo effective crystal fractionation; high-silica granite and volcanics with highly fractionated characteristics may be the products of crystal fractionation of felsic magmas, and many granitoids may be cumulates.展开更多
The Cretaceous granitoids in the middle and northern Gangdese, Tibet are generally interpreted as the products of anatexis of thickened deep crust genetically associated with the Lhasa-Qiangtang collision. This paper ...The Cretaceous granitoids in the middle and northern Gangdese, Tibet are generally interpreted as the products of anatexis of thickened deep crust genetically associated with the Lhasa-Qiangtang collision. This paper reports bulk-rock major element, trace element and Sr-Nd isotopic data, zircon U-Pb age data, and zircon Hf isotopic data on the Zayu pluton in eastern Gangdese, Tibet. These data shed new light on the petrogenesis of the pluton. Our SHRIMP zircon U-Pb age dates, along with LA-ICPMS zircon U-Pb age dates recently reported in the literature, indicate that the Zayu pluton was emplaced at about 130 Ma, coeval with Early Cretaceous magmatic rocks in other areas of eastern Gangdese (e.g., Rawu, Baxoi areas) and the Middle Gangdese. The Zayu pluton samples lack amphibole and muscovite, and are compositionally characterized by high SiO2 (69.9%―76.8%), K2O (4.4%―5.7%), and low P2O5 (0.05%―0.12%). These samples also have A/CNK values of 1.00-1.05, and are enriched in Rb, Th, U, and Pb, and depleted in Ba, Nb, Ta, Sr, P, Ti, and Eu. These geochemical features suggest that the Zayu pluton samples are metaluminous to slightly peraluminous and are of highly fractionated I-type granite. The Zayu pluton samples have high εNd(t) values (-10.9--7.6) and low initial 87Sr/86Sr ratios (0.7120- 0.7179) relative to melts derived from mature continental crust in the Gangdese (e.g., Ningzhong Early Jurassic strongly peraluminous granite). The Zayu pluton samples are heterogeneous in zircon εHf(t) values (-12.8--2.9), yielding ancient zircon Hf crustal model ages of 1.4―2.0 Ga. The data obtained in this study together with the data in the recent literature suggest that the Early Cretaceous granitoids in eastern Gangdese represent the eastward extension of the Early Cretaceous magmatism in the middle Gangdese, and that the Lhasa micro-continent block with ancient basement may extend for ~2000 km from east to west. Zircon Hf isotopic data and bulk-rock zircon saturation temperature (789-821℃) indicate that mantle-derived materials likely played a role in the generation of the Zayu pluton. We propose that the Zayu pluton was most likely generated in a setting associated with southward sub- duction of the Bangong-Nujiang ocean floor, where mantle wedge-derived magmas may have providedthe heat and material for the anatexis of ancient crust of the Lhasa micro-continent, resulted in hybrid melts (i.e., mantle-derived basaltic magmas + crust-derived felsic magmas). Such hybrid melts with subsequent fractional crystallization are responsible for the highly evolved Zayu pluton (crust thick- ening is not a prerequisite).展开更多

文摘Both fractional crystallization and fluid-melt-crystal interaction are involved in the formation of highly fractionated granites.This paper assessed those two processes using geochemistry of muscovite and tourmaline and bulkrock chemistry of multi-phase Wangxianling granitoids,South China.Compositional variations suggest the coarse-grained muscovite granite is produced from fractional crystallization of the two-mica granite whereas the fine-grained muscovite granite represents a distinct magma pulse.Progressive fractionation of quartz,feldspar and biotite leads to elevated boron and aluminum content in melt which promoted muscovite and tourmaline to crystallize,which promotes two-mica granite evolving towards tourmaline-bearing muscovite granite.Fluid-melt-crystal interaction occurred at the magmatichydrothermal transitional stage and resulted in the textural and chemical zonings of tourmaline and muscovite in finegrained muscovite granite.The rims of both tourmaline and muscovite are characterized by the enrichment of fluid mobile elements such as Li,Mn,Cs and Zn and heavierδ^(11)B values of the tourmaline rims(-15.0‰to-13.6‰)compared to cores(-15.7‰to-14.3‰).Meanwhile,significant M-type REE tetrad effects(TE_(1,3)=1.07-1.18)and low K/Rb ratios(48-52)also correspond to fluid-melt-crystal interaction.This study shows zoned muscovite and tourmaline can be excellent tracers of fractional crystallization and late-stage fluid-melt-crystal interaction in highly evolved magmatic systems.

文摘The pervasively distributed granitoids in South China contributed greatly to regional polymetallic mineralization,including tungsten,tin,copper,gold,rare metals,and rare earth elements(REEs).To ascertain the dynamic backgrounds,rock types and genesis of the parent rocks related to the Early-Middle Jurassic ionic rare earth mineralization,typical deposits at Muzishan,Xiahu,and Zudong were investigated by conducting petrographic,geochronologic,whole-rock geochemical,and Sr-Nd-Pb isotope analyses,which found that the parent rocks from the Muzishan deposit were the A1-type K-feldspar granite(~195 Ma),from the Zudong deposit were the A2-type monzogranite(~171 Ma),and from the Xiahu deposit were the I-type monzogranite(~167 Ma).All the three granitic rocks underwent different degrees of fractionation,with the Xiahu granite experiencing the highest degree,followed by the Zudong granite,and the Muzishan granite undergoing the lowest degree.The Muzishan granite was concluded to be formed under an intraplate extensional tectonic regime influenced by the hotspots or the mantle plume.The Zudong granite was formed in a post-arc extensional setting related to subduction-collision-rollback of the paleo-Pacific Plate,which caused upwelling of the asthenosphere,thinning of the lithosphere,and partial melting of crustal materials.The Xiahu granite was generated under a transitional tectonic setting of extension and compression,triggered by delamination and rollback of the paleo-Pacific Plate.

文摘The South China Block is characterized by the large-scale emplacement of felsic magmas and giant ore deposits during the Yanshanian. We present zircon Hf isotopic compositions, whole-rock major and trace element compositions of the Fengshun complex, located in eastern Guangdong Province, South China. The Fengshun complex is a multi-stage magmatic intrusion. It is composed of two main units, i.e., the Mantoushan（MTS） syeno-monzogranites, alkali feldspar granites and the Hulutian（HLT） alkali feldspar granites. LA-ICPMS zircon dating shows that the complex emplaced in 166–161 and 139±2 Ma, respectively. Geochemically, the MTS granites show relatively various geochemical compositions with low REE contents（87.76×10-6–249.71×10-6）, Rb/Sr ratios（1.19–58.93）, pronounced Eu negative anomaly（0.01–0.37） and low Nb/Ta ratios（2.40–6.82）. In contrast, the HLT granites exhibit relatively stable geochemical characteristics with high REE contents（147.35×10-6– 282.17×10-6）, Rb/Sr ratios（2.05–10.30） and relatively high Nb/Ta ratios（4.45–13.00）. The isotopic data of the MTS granites display relatively enriched values, with ISr varying from 0.708 2 to 0.709 7, εNd（t） from-7.8 to-6.9 and εHf（t） from-7.4 to-3.2, in comparison with those of the HLT which are ISr=0.703 05–0.704 77, εNd（t）=-5–-3.4 and εHf（t）=-0.7–1.8）. The two-stage model ages of the MTS granites（T2DM（Nd）=1.51–1.59 Ga and T2DM（Hf）=1.26–1.48 Ga） are also higher than those of the HLT granites（T2DM（Nd）=1.21–1.34 Ga and T2DM（Hf）=0.96–1.10 Ga）. Thus the MTS and HLT granites might originate from different sources. The former is more likely derived from partial melting of Meso-Proterozoic basement triggered by upwelling of asthenosphere and/or underplate of the basaltic magma and then extensive fractional crystallisation, similar to the genesis of Early Yanshanian granitoids of the EW-trending tectono-magmatism belt in the Nanling range. In comparison, the latter might have involved with asthenosphere component, similar to the Early Cretaceous granitoids of NE-NNE-trending granitoid-volcanic belt in coastal region, southeastern China. We propose that the MTS granites were mainly formed in Paleo-Tethyan post-orogenic extensional tectonic setting whereas the HLT granites were formed in the back-arc extensional tectonic setting. The period at 139 Ma represents the initial time of roll-back of the paleo-Pacific Plate in SE-trending.

文摘The widespread W-(Mo)-Sn-Nb-Ta polymetallic mineralization in Southeast(SE)China is genetically associated with Mesozoic highly fractionated granitic rocks.Such rocks have enigmatic mineralogical and geochemical features,making its petrogenesis an intensely debated topic.To better understand the underlying magma evolution processes,petrography,garnet chemistry and whole-rock major and trace element data are reported for Jurassic highly fractionated granitic rocks and associated microgranite and aplitepegmatite dikes from Macao and compared with coeval similar granitic rocks from nearby areas in SE China.Despite the fact that the most evolved rocks in Macao are garnet-bearing aplite-pegmatite dikes,the existence of coeval two-mica and garnet-bearing biotite and muscovite granites displaying more evolved compositions(e.g.,lower Zr/Hf ratios)indicates that the differentiation sequence reached higher degrees of fractionation at a regional scale.Although crystal fractionation played an important role,late-stage fluid/melt interactions,involving F-rich fluids,imparted specific geochemical characteristics to Macao and SE China highly fractionated granitic rocks such as the non-CHARAC(CHArge-and-RAdius-Controlled)behavior of trace elements,leading,for example,to non-chondritic Zr/Hf ratios,Rare Earth Elements(REE)tetrad effects and Nb-Ta enrichment and fractionation.Such process contributed to the late-stage crystallization of accessory phases only found in these highly evolved facies.Among the latter,two populations of garnet were identified in MGI(Macao GroupⅠ)highly fractionated granitic rocks:small grossular-poor euhedral grains and large grossular-rich skeletal garnet grains with quartz inclusions.The first group was mainly formed through precipitation from highly evolved Mn-rich slightly peraluminous melts under low-pressure and relatively low temperature(~700℃)conditions.Assimilation of upper crust metasedimentary materials may have contributed as a source of Mn and Al to the formation of garnet.The second group has a metasomatic origin related to the interaction of magmatic fluids with previously crystallized mineral phases and,possibly,with assimilated metasedimentary enclaves or surrounding metasedimentary strata.The highly fractionated granitic rocks in Macao represent the first stage in the development of granite-related W-(Mo)-Sn-Nb-Ta mineralization associated with coeval more evolved lithotypes in SE China.

文摘The fabrication of high volume fraction （HVF） M7C3 （M=Cr, Fe） reinforced Fe-based composite coating on ASTM A36 steel plate using plasma transferred arc （PTA） welding was studied. The results showed that the volume fraction of carbide M7C3 was more than sixty percent, and the relative wear resistance of the coating tested on a block-on-ring dry sliding tester at constant load （100 N） and variable loads （from 100 to 300 N） respectively was about 9 and 14 times higher than that of non-reinforced a-Fe coating. In addition, under constant load condition the friction coefficients （FCs） of two coatings increased first and then decreased with increasing sliding distance. However, under variable loads condition the FCs of non-reinforced a-Fe based coating increased gradually, while that of HVF MTC3 reinforced coating decreased as the load exceeded 220 N. The worn surface of non-reinforced a-Fe based coating was easily deformed and grooved, while that of the HVF M7C3 reinforced coating was difficult to be deformed and grooved.

文摘Increasing nanoparticle volume fraction has been proved to be effective in improving the strength of nanoparticle reinforced Al matrix nanocomposite. However, the underlying mechanisms for the ultrahigh strength of those nanocomposites with high volume fraction(> 10 vol.%) nanoparticles are short of experimental research. In this study, the strengthening mechanisms of high strength Al matrix nanocomposite reinforced with 15 vol.% Al_(2)O_(3) nanoparticles were investigated experimentally and analyzed theoretically. The results show that the thermal mismatch induced geometrically necessary dislocations exhibit a negligible strengthening effect, because of their low density in the nanocomposite that is contradiction to the conventional dislocation punch model. Orowan mechanism makes a major strengthening contribution in view of the deformation process dominated by nanoparticle-dislocation interactions due to the extreme pinning effect of nanoparticles on dislocation motion. In addition, the several mechanisms including grain boundary strengthening, load transfer strengthening, and elastic modulus mismatch induced dislocation strengthening contribute to the strength increase.

文摘In order to ensure the safety of the non-heating gathering and transportation processes for high water fraction crude oil,the effect of temperature,water fraction,and flow rate on the flow characteristics of crude oil with high water fraction was studied in a flow experimental system of the X Oilfield.Four distinct flow patterns were identified by the photographic and local sampling techniques.Especially,three new flow patterns were found to occur below the pour point of crude oil,including EW/O&W stratified flow with gel deposition,EW/O&W intermittent flow with gel deposition,and water single-phase flow with gel deposition.Moreover,two characteristic temperatures,at which the change rate of pressure drop had changed obviously,were found during the change of pressure drop.The characteristic temperature of the first congestion of gel deposition in the pipeline was determined to be the safe temperature for the non-heating gathering and transportation of high water cut crude oil,while the pressure drop reached the peak at this temperature.An empirical formula for the safe temperature was established for oil-water flow with high water fraction/low fluid production rate.The results can serve as a guide for the safe operation of the non-heating gathering and transportation of crude oil in high water fraction oilfields.
文摘The peak fields of HT-7U TF/PF coils are designed at 5.8 T and 4.5 T, respectively. The superconducting (SC) NbTi/Cu strands for the coils have a quite low copper fraction (0.58). To increase the ratio of the limiting current Vs. critical current for the cable in conduit conductor (CICC), the first-stage subcable consists of several copper strands twisted around a SC composite one. The copper strand diameter is different from the SC one. Based on Bottura's CICC design approach we take the product of total copper cross-section and wetted perimeter as one of the key design parameters to meet with stability margin requirement. The product reaches 114 cm3 for 15.5 kA TF CICC at operating temperature of 4.2 K and 139 cm3 for 15 kA PF CICC at 3.8 K to obtain stability margins of 280 and 700 mJ/cm3, respectively.

文摘The Precambrian Homrit-Waggat granite is a post-orogenic batholithic intrusion located in the northern region of the Nubian Shield,characterized by a typical annular morphology and significant secondary alteration.This study aims to elucidate the processes that have shaped the intrusion in both macroscopic and microscopic perspectives,employing a combination of field observation and petrographic analysis alongside major and trace element compositions of minerals.Within the central region of the pluton,biotite and amphibole are observed sporadically,while the predominant crystallization of anhydrous oligoclase in the outer regions has led to a progressive increase in volatile components within the residual melt,ultimately resulting in a volatile-saturated aluminosilicate melt.The exsolved fluids subsequently interacted with the previously crystallized mineral assemblage,producing metasomatic overprinting.As the cooling and crystallization continued,the water pressure within the magma chamber gradually escalated until it equaled or surpassed the confining pressure,leading to the formation of fractures and veins filled with minerals that crystallized from the residual aqueous fluids.The ongoing degassing and expulsion of aqueous fluids from the magma chamber’s interior ultimately contributed to the collapse of the chamber’s roof,resulting in the annular ring-dike morphology observed in the Homrit Waggat pluton.

文摘Highly evolved granite associated with pegmatite shells exhibits significant potential for rare metal mineralization;however,the mechanisms through which these pegmatite shells contribute to magmatic evolution and rare metal enrichment remain poorly understood.The Late Jurassic Shihuiyao Nb-Ta-(Rb-Be-Li)deposit is one of the largest rare-metal deposits in the Southern Great Xing’an Range(SGXR),Northeast China.Exploratory trenches expose distinct layered zones from top to bottom:alternating microcline pegmatite and aplite layers(zone I),topaz lepidolite albite granite and lepidolite amazonite pegmatite(zone II),and muscovite albite granite(zoneⅢ).We conducted U-Pb dating of cassiterite,monazite,and Nb-Ta oxide,monazite Nd isotopes,and whole-rock and mineral geochemistry for the three zones.Multi-mineral U-Pb ages indicate that the three zones formed during the Late Jurassic-Early Cretaceous(147-142 Ma).Geochemical analyses of whole-rock,mica,and microcline suggest an evolutionary sequence from zone I to zoneⅢ,and finally to zone II.The Zr/Hf,Nb/Ta,Y/Ho,and K/Rb ratios combined with the rare earth element(REE)tetrad effects suggest higher degree of differentiation and fluid-melt interaction of the Shihuiyao leucogranite without a pegmatite shell compared to coeval barren granites from both Shihuiyao and the SGXR.A progressive increase in the degree of evolution is evident from the leucogranite without a pegmatite shell to the leucogranite with a discontinuous shell,and ultimately to the leucogranite with a continuous shell.The pegmatite shell acted as a geochemical barrier that facilitated the accumulation of Li and F in the underlying magma,which played a crucial role in lowering the solidus temperature of the granitic magma.This process prolonged the crystallization duration while reducing melt viscosity and density,thereby creating favorable conditions for magma differentiation and fluid-melt interaction.Rapid crystallization of the earlier water-and Be-rich melt led to the Be mineralization in the pegmatite shell.Moreover,the formation of this shell served as a barrier for Li mineralization in the underlying topaz lepidolite albite granite.This study enhances our understanding of the critical contribution of pegmatite shells to magmatic evolution and rare-metal mineralization.

文摘The Tong’an-Baishuidong mining district(TBMD),located in the eastern section of the Jiangnan Orogen,is a newly discovered granite-type lithium mining district.Thisstudy presents new monazite U-Pb chronological,whole-rock geochemical,and Nd-Pb isotopic data to reveal the petrogenesis and geodynamic setting of the Wutang granites in the TBMD.The monazite U-Pb age of 145.8±1.0 Ma indicates that the granites were emplaced at the end of the Late Jurassic.Whole-rock geochemical results demonstrate that the Wutang granites are enriched in SiO_(2)(72.80-73.40 wt%)but depleted in CaO(0.44-0.90 wt%)and MgO+TiO_(2)+TFeO(1.79-2.05 wt%).These granites exhibit negative Eu anomalies(δEu=0.3−0.4)and high aluminum saturation indexes(A/CNK=1.2−1.6),differentiation indexes(DI=90-92),and Rb/Sr ratios(4.7-8.1).They also have moderate Ba contents(239-278 ppm)and low Sr contents(52.7-82.0 ppm)as well as low Nb/Ta(2.2-5.3)and Zr/Hf(21.3-31.5)ratios.All these indicate that they are highly fractionated granites.Additionally,these granites contain 5-10 wt%muscovite but no hornblende,with calculated corundum contents of 2.3-5.5 wt%.They have low high-field strength element(HFSE)contents(Zr+Nb+Ce+Y=182-202 ppm)and zircon saturation temperatures(700-770℃),with Th and Y negatively linked with Rb.These petrographic and geochemi-cal features further reveal that the Wutang granites belong to highly fractionated S-type granites.TheεNd(t)values of these granites range from−9.03 to−8.23,corresponding to two-stage model ages(T DM2)of 1488-1553 Ma.The initial Pb isotope ratios are:(206 Pb/^(204)Pb)i=18.38-18.55,(^(207)Pb/^(204)Pb)i=15.67-15.68,and(^(208)Pb/^(204)Pb)i=38.62-38.67.These Nd-Pb isotopic results demonstrate that the parental magma originated from the partial melting of ancient crustal materials.In the meantime,the TBMD in the eastern section of the Jiangnan Orogen was in a compression-extension transitional setting associated with the episodic subduction of the Paleo-Pacific Plate.

文摘Granite is one of the most important components of the continental crust on our Earth; it thus has been an enduring studied subject in geology. According to present knowledge, granite shows a great deal of heterogeneity in terms of its texture,structure, mineral species and geochemical compositions at different scales from small dike to large batholith. However, the reasons for these variations are not well understood although numerous interpretations have been proposed. The key point of this debate is whether granitic magma can be effectively differentiated through fractional crystallization, and, if so, what kind of crystallization occurred during the magmatic evolution. Although granitic magma has high viscosity because of its elevated SiO2 content, we agree that fractional crystallization is effectively processed during its evolution based on the evidence from field investigation,mineral species and its chemical variations, and geochemical compositions. These data indicate that crystal settling by gravitation is not the only mechanism dominating granitic differentiation. On the contrary, flow segregation or dynamic sorting may be more important. Accordingly, granite can be divided into unfractionated, fractionated(including weakly fractionated and highly fractionated) and cumulated types, according to the differentiation degree. Highly fractionated granitic magmas are generally high in primary temperature or high with various volatiles during the later stage, which make the fractional crystallization much easier than the common granitic melts. In addition, effective magmatic differentiation can be also expected when the magma emplaced along a large scale of extensional structure. Highly fractionated granitic magma is easily contaminated by country rocks due to its relatively prolonged crystallization time. Thus, granites do not always reflect the characteristics of the source areas and the physical and chemical conditions of the primary magma. We proposed that highly fractionated granites are an important sign indicating compositional maturity of the continental crust, and they are also closely related to the rare-elemental(metal) mineralization of W,Sn, Nb, Ta, Li, Be, Rb, Cs, REEs, etc.

文摘Mesozoic multi-stage tectono-magmatic events produced widely distributed granitoids in the South China Block. Huangshadong(HSD) is located in south-eastern South China Block, where closely spaced hot springs accompany outcrops of Mesozoic granites. New data on whole-rock geochemistry, zircon U-Pb geochronology, and zircon Lu-Hf isotopes are presented, to study the petrogenesis and tectonic evolution of the granites, and to explore the relationship between granites and geothermal anomalies. Zircon U-Pb isotopes display three periods of granites in the HSD area: Indosinian(ca. 253 Ma, G4) muscovite-bearing monzonitic granite, early Yanshanian(ca. 175–155 Ma, G5 and G3) monzonitic granite and granodiorite, and late Yanshanian(ca. 140 Ma, G1 and G2) biotite monzonitic granite. In petrogenetic type, granites of the three periods are I-type granite. Among them, G1, G2, G3, and G4 are characterized by high fractionation, with high values of SiO2, alkalis, Ga/Al, and Rb/Sr, and depletion in Sr, Ba, Zr, Nb, Ti, REEs, with low(La/Yb)N, Nb/Ta, and Zr/Hf ratios and negative Eu anomalies. In terms of tectonic setting, 253 Ma G4 may be the product of partial melting of the ancient lower crust under post-orogenic extensional tectonics, as the closure of the Paleo-Tethys Ocean resulted in an intracontinental orogeny. At 175 Ma, the subduction of the Pacific Plate became the dominant tectonic system, and low-angle subduction of the Paleo-Pacific Plate facilitated partial melting of the subducted oceanic crust and basement to generate the hornblende-bearing I-type granodiorite. As the dip angle of the subducting plate increased, the continental arc tectonic setting was transformed to back-arc extension, inducing intense partial melting of the lower crust at ca. 158 Ma and resulting in the most frequent granitic magmatic activity in the South China hinterland. When slab foundering occurred at ca. 140 Ma, underplating of mantle-derived magmas caused melting of the continental crust, generating extensive highly fractionated granites in HSD. Combining the granitic evolution of HSD and adjacent areas and radioactive heat production rates, it is suggested that highly fractionated granites are connected to the enrichments in U and Th with magma evolution. The high radioactive heat derived from the Yanshanian granites is an important part of the crustal heat, which contributes significantly to the terrestrial heat flow. Drilling ZK8 reveals deep, ca. 140 Ma granite, which implies the heat source of the geothermal anomalies is mainly the concealed Yanshanian granites, combining the granite distribution on the surface.

文摘With aim of providing constraints on the Late Paleozoic tectonic evolution of the southern Central Asian Orogenic Belt(CAOB),an integrated study was conducted on the geochronological and geochemical data for dioritic,granitic and diabase dykes from the Aqishan-Yamansu belt in the eastern Tianshan,NW China.Zircon U-Pb dating indicates that the dioritic and granitic dykes were both emplaced in the Late Carboniferous(~311 Ma and^315 Ma).The dioritic dykes show adakitic characteristics and have high Na2 O and positiveεHf(t)values(+12 to+17),which suggest an origin from partial melts of a subducted oceanic slab.The granitic dykes have high SiO2 and K2 O contents and are characterized by en riched light rare earth elements(LREE)and slightly flat heavy rare earth elements(HREE),with negative Eu and Nb-Ta-Ti anomalies.These dykes are alkali-calcic and show geochemical features of highly fractionated Itype granites.Their positiveεHf(t)values(+16 to+17)suggest that they were derived from a juvenile accreted oceanic crustal sou rce.The coeval diabase dykes have low SiO2 and K2 O contents but high TiO2,MgO and Mg#(54-59).They are enriched in LREE and show characteristics of enriched mid-ocean ridge basalts(E-MORB).The relatively high Ba/Th,slightly low Th/Ta ratios,and negative Nb-Ta anomalies imply a mantle source metasomatised by slab-derived fluids.Thus,these basic dykes were generated likely by partial melting of the upwelling asthenosphere mantle with a slight influence of slab-derived fluids.Therefore,we suggest that the formation of these Late Carboniferous dykes were triggered by a post-collisional slab breakoff and the Aqishan-Yamansu belt was a continental arc formed by southdipping subduction of the Kangguer oceanic plate.

文摘The Kejie pluton is located in the north of the Changning-Menglian suture zone. The rock types are mainly biotite-granite. Zircon LA-ICP-MS U-Pb dating indicates that the Kejie pluton emplaced at about 80-77 Ma, Late Cretaceous. The Kejie pluton samples are characterized by high SiO2 （71.68%-72.47%）, K2O （4.73%-5.54%）, total alkali （K2O ＋ Na2O = 8.21%-8.53%）, K2O/Na2O ratios （1.36-1.94） and low P2O5 （0.13%-0.17%）, with A/CNK of 1.025-1.055; enriched in U, Th, and K, depleted in Ba, Nb, St, Ti, P and Eu. They are highly fractionated, slightly peraluminous 1-type granite. The two samples of the Kejie pluton give a large variation of εHf（t） values （-5.04 to 1.96） and Hf isotope crustal model ages of 1.16-1.5 Ga. Zircon Hf isotopes and zircon saturation temperatures of whole-rock （801℃-823℃） show that the mantle-derived materials maybe have played a vital role in the generation of the Kejie pluton. The Kejie pluton was most likely generated in a setting associated with the eastward subduction of the neo-Tethys ocean, where intrusion of mantle wedge basaltic magmas in the crust caused the anatexis of the latter, forming hybrid melts, which subsequently experienced high-degree fractional crystallization.

文摘The Baingoin batholith is one of the largest granitic plutons in the North Lhasa terrane.Its petrogenesis and tectonic setting have been studied for decades,but remain controversial.Here we report data on geochronology,geochemistry and isotopes of Early Cretaceous granitoids within the Baingoin batholith,which provide more evidence to uncover its petrogenesis and regional geodynamic processes.The Early Cretaceous magmatism yields ages of 134.4–132.0 Ma and can be divided into I-type,S-type and highly fractionated granites.The I-and S-type granites exhibit medium SiO_(2),high K_(2)O/Na_(2)O with negativeεNd(t)andεHf(t)values,whereas,the albite granites have very high SiO_(2)(79.04%–80.40%),very low K_(2)O/N_(2)O,negativeεNd(t)and a large variation inεHf(t).Our new data indicate that these granitoids are derived from unbalanced melting in a heterogeneous source area.The granodiorites involved had a hybrid origin from partial melting of basalt-derived and Al-rich rocks in the crust,the porphyritic monzogranites being derived from partial melting of pelitic rocks.The albite granites crystallized from residual melt separated from K-rich magma within the‘mush’process and underwent fractionation of K-feldspar.We believe that the Early Cretaceous magmatism formed in an extensional setting produced by the initial and continuous rollback of a northward-subducting slab of the NTO.

文摘Both tungsten(W)and tin(Sn)are crust-affiliated elements that tend to concentrate in highly fractionated granitic magmas.However,their mineralization is often decoupled,with some intrusions hosting predominantly W deposits while others being enriched in Sn.The mechanisms controlling this W-Sn mineralization decoupling remain unclear.This study investigates the role of fluorine(F)in this process by examining W-and Sn-mineralized granites in the Nanling Range,South China,with key findings as follows:(1)Sn-mineralized granites generally exhibit higher F contents(up to several thousand ppm)than Wmineralized granites(100–700 ppm),representing high-F and moderate-F magmatic systems,respectively.(2)Elevated F enhances the solubility of H2O and chlorine(Cl)in silicate melts,which inhibits fluid exsolution and premature Sn extraction,thereby enabling Sn enrichment in highly evolved melts to form Sn deposits.In moderate-F systems,early fluid exsolution at deep crustal levels leads to Sn loss in the form of stable Sn-Cl complexes to the fluid phase,leaving residual melts to form Wdominated deposits.(3)The higher F content in Sn-related magmas is attributed to inputs of volatiles associated with mantlederived mafic magmas.(4)Sn-mineralized granites can be classified as crust-mantle hybrid“H-type”granites associated with the flux of mantle-derived melt across trans-crustal magmatic systems.In contrast,W-mineralized granites are predominantly crustderived“C-type”granites produced by either heat-induced melting(magmatic underplating)or decompression melting with limited mantle contribution.We propose that the difference in F content essentially governs W-Sn mineralization decoupling.Future research should focus on the identification of deep mantle halogen reservoirs beneath Sn-polymetallic provinces and experimental investigations into the geochemical behavior of halogens,W,and Sn in magmatic-hydrothermal systems.

文摘Granitic continental crust distinguishes the Earth from other planets in the Solar System. Consequently, for understanding terrestrial continent development, it is of great significance to investigate the formation and evolution of granite.Crystal fractionation is one of principal magma evolution mechanisms. Nevertheless, it is controversial whether crystal fractionation can effectively proceed in felsic magma systems because of the high viscosity and non-Newtonian behavior associated with granitic magmas. In this paper, we focus on the physical processes and evaluate the role of crystal fractionation in the evolution of granitic magmas during non-transport processes, i.e., in magma chambers and after emplacement. Based on physical calculations and analyses, we suggest that general mineral particles can settle only at tiny speed(~10^(-9)–10^(-7) m s^(-1))in a granitic magma body due to high viscosity of the magma; however, the cumulating can be interrupted with convection in magma chambers, and the components of magma chambers will tend to be homogeneous. Magma convection ceases once the magma chamber develops into a mush(crystallinity, F>~40–50%). The interstitial melts can be extracted by hindered settling and compaction, accumulating gradually and forming a highly silicic melt layer. The high silica melts can further evolve into high-silica granite or high-silica rhyolite. At various crystallinities, multiple rejuvenation of the mush and the following magma intrusion may generate a granite complex with various components. While one special type of granites, represented by the South China lithium-and fluoride-rich granite, has lower viscosity and solidus relative to general granitic magmas, and may form vertical zonation in mineral-assemblage and composition through crystal fractionation. Similar fabrics in general intrusions that show various components on small lengthscales are not the result of gravitational settling. Rather, the flowage differentiation may play a key role. In general, granitic magma can undergo effective crystal fractionation; high-silica granite and volcanics with highly fractionated characteristics may be the products of crystal fractionation of felsic magmas, and many granitoids may be cumulates.
文摘The Cretaceous granitoids in the middle and northern Gangdese, Tibet are generally interpreted as the products of anatexis of thickened deep crust genetically associated with the Lhasa-Qiangtang collision. This paper reports bulk-rock major element, trace element and Sr-Nd isotopic data, zircon U-Pb age data, and zircon Hf isotopic data on the Zayu pluton in eastern Gangdese, Tibet. These data shed new light on the petrogenesis of the pluton. Our SHRIMP zircon U-Pb age dates, along with LA-ICPMS zircon U-Pb age dates recently reported in the literature, indicate that the Zayu pluton was emplaced at about 130 Ma, coeval with Early Cretaceous magmatic rocks in other areas of eastern Gangdese (e.g., Rawu, Baxoi areas) and the Middle Gangdese. The Zayu pluton samples lack amphibole and muscovite, and are compositionally characterized by high SiO2 (69.9%―76.8%), K2O (4.4%―5.7%), and low P2O5 (0.05%―0.12%). These samples also have A/CNK values of 1.00-1.05, and are enriched in Rb, Th, U, and Pb, and depleted in Ba, Nb, Ta, Sr, P, Ti, and Eu. These geochemical features suggest that the Zayu pluton samples are metaluminous to slightly peraluminous and are of highly fractionated I-type granite. The Zayu pluton samples have high εNd(t) values (-10.9--7.6) and low initial 87Sr/86Sr ratios (0.7120- 0.7179) relative to melts derived from mature continental crust in the Gangdese (e.g., Ningzhong Early Jurassic strongly peraluminous granite). The Zayu pluton samples are heterogeneous in zircon εHf(t) values (-12.8--2.9), yielding ancient zircon Hf crustal model ages of 1.4―2.0 Ga. The data obtained in this study together with the data in the recent literature suggest that the Early Cretaceous granitoids in eastern Gangdese represent the eastward extension of the Early Cretaceous magmatism in the middle Gangdese, and that the Lhasa micro-continent block with ancient basement may extend for ~2000 km from east to west. Zircon Hf isotopic data and bulk-rock zircon saturation temperature (789-821℃) indicate that mantle-derived materials likely played a role in the generation of the Zayu pluton. We propose that the Zayu pluton was most likely generated in a setting associated with southward sub- duction of the Bangong-Nujiang ocean floor, where mantle wedge-derived magmas may have providedthe heat and material for the anatexis of ancient crust of the Lhasa micro-continent, resulted in hybrid melts (i.e., mantle-derived basaltic magmas + crust-derived felsic magmas). Such hybrid melts with subsequent fractional crystallization are responsible for the highly evolved Zayu pluton (crust thick- ening is not a prerequisite).
