The diffusion coefficients of Na, K, and Ca were measured at the temperatures of 750 -1400℃, pressures of 0. 001×108 - 2×108 Pa, and initialH2O contents of O wt% - 6. 9 wt% in the granitic melts. The diffusion coefficients of Fe andMg were difficuIt to resolve. In all experiments a NaCl melt was present as well. In the absence of H2O, the diffusion of net-work modifiers folows an Arrhanious equation at 1 ×105 Pa:lgDCa= - 3. 88 - 5140/ T, lgDK = - 3. 79 - 4040/ T, and lgDNa=- 4.99 - 3350/ T,where D is in cm2/s and T is in K. The diffusion coefficients of Ca, Na, K, and Fe increasenon-linearly with increasing H2O cOntent in the melt. The presence of about 2 wt% H2O inthe melt will lead to a dramatical increase in diffusivity, but higher H2O content has only a minor effect. This change is probably the result of a change in the melt structure when H2O ispresent. The diffusion coefficients measured in this study are significantly different from thosein previous woks. This may be understood in terms of the "transient two-liquid equilibrium"theory. Element interdiffusion dapends not only on its concentration, but also on its activity coefficient gradient, which is reflected by the distribution coefficient, of the two contactingmelts.展开更多

The cooling period of the melt for the Fanshan granodiorite from its initial temperature （900℃） to crystallization temperature （600℃） could be estimated -210,000 years if latent heat was not considered. Calculation for the Fanshan melt using the above formula yields a AtL value of -190,000 years, which implies that the actual cooling period within the temperature range of 900°-600℃ should be 400,000 years. This demonstrates that the latent heat produced from crystallization of the granitic melt is a key factor influencing the cooling-crystallization process of a granitic melt, prolongating the period of crystallization and resulting in the large emplacement-crystallization time difference （ECTD） in granite batholith.展开更多

The calculated results of quartz and alkali feldspar crystal-liquid equilibri-um show that the activity of SiO2 in melt increases and the activities of NaAlSi3O8 (Ab) and KAlSi3O8(Or) decrease, with a greater decreasing extent for than . These systematic changes are believed to be caused by F complexing with Al, Na, K, but not Si in the melt,and are consistent with F decomposing AlO2 tetrahedra and more preferentially forming com-plexes with Na than K. The comarison between effects of F and H2O on phase equilibrium suggests that the maximum difference affecting melt structure between F and OH is F complex-ing without Si and OH complexing with Si in granitic melt.展开更多

Radiogenic heat of a granitic melt has significant influence on the cooling-crystallization period of the melt. In this paper we derived a formula to calculate prolongation period (t A) of cooling-crystallization of a granitic melt caused by radiogenic heat. Calculation using this formula and radioactive element concentrations (U=5.31×10?6; Th=23.1×10?6; K=4.55%) for the biotite adamellite of the Jinjiling batholith shows that the t A of the adamellite is 1.4 times of the cooling period of the granitic melt without considering radiogenic heat from the initial temperature (T m=960°C) to crystallization temperature (T c=600°C) of the melt. It has been demonstrated that the radiogenic heat produced in a granitic melt is a key factor influencing the cooling-crystallization process of the granitic melt, and is likely one of the reasons for inconsistence between emplacement ages and crystallization ages of many Meso-Cenozoic granitoids.展开更多

Partition coefficients of Cu （Dcu = Cfluid/Cmelt） were varied with different alumina/alkali mole ratios [Al2O3/（Na2O ＋ K2O）, abbreviated as Al/ Alk], Na/K mole ratios, and SiO2 mole contents. The DCu increased from 1.28 ± 0.01 to 22.18 ±0.22 with the increase of Al/Alk mole ratios （ranging from 0.64 to 1.20） and Na/K mole ratios （ranging from 0.58 to 2.56）. The experimental results also showed that Dcu was positively correlated with the HCl concentration of the starting fluid. The Dcu was independent of the SiO2 mole content in the range of SiO2 content considered. No Dcu value was less than 1 in our experiments at 850 ℃ and 100 MPa, indicating that Cu preferred to enter the fluid phase rather than the coexisting melt phase under most conditions in the melt-fluid system, and thus a significant amount of Cu could be transported in the fluid phase in the magmatichydrothermal environment. The results indicated that Cu favored partitioning into the aqueous fluid rather than the melt phase if there was a high Na/K ratio, Na-rich, peraluminous granitic melt coexisting with the high Cl^- fluid.展开更多

Zircon in the granitic rocks has median values of 350 ppm U, 140 ppm Th, and Th/U=0.52; the recommended zircon-melt partition coefficients are 81 for Du and 8.2 for DTh. In zircon from mafic and intermediate rocks, the median values are 270 ppm U, 170 ppm Th, and Th/U=0.81, and the recommended zirconmelt partition coefficients are 169 for Du and 59 for DTh. The U and Th contents and Th/U ratios of magmatic zircon are low when zircon crystallizes in equilibrium with the melt. Increasing magma temperature should promote higher Th contents relative to U contents, resulting in higher Th/U ratios for zircon in mafic to intermediate rocks than in granitic rocks. However, when zircon crystallizes in disequilibrium with the melt, U and Th are more easily able to enter the zircon lattice, and their contents and Th/U ratios depend mainly on the degree of disequilibrium. The behavior of U and Th in magmatic zircon can be used as a geochemical indicator to determine the origins and crystallization environments of magmatic zircon.展开更多

文摘The U-Th-40K concentrations of granite are on 1–2 orders of magnitude greater than those of basaltic-ultrabasic rocks. Radiogenic heat of a granitic melt has significant influence on the cooling-crystallization period of the melt. In this paper we derived a formula to calculate prolongation period (t A) of cooling-crystallization of a granitic melt caused by radiogenic heat. Calculation using this formula and radioactive element concentrations (U=5.31×10?6; Th=23.1×10?6; K=4.55%) for the biotite adamellite of the Jinjiling batholith shows that the t A of the adamellite is 1.4 times of the cooling period of the granitic melt without considering radiogenic heat from the initial temperature (T m=960°C) to crystallization temperature (T c=600°C) of the melt. It has been demonstrated that the radiogenic heat produced in a granitic melt is a key factor influencing the cooling-crystallization process of the granitic melt, and is likely one of the reasons for inconsistence between emplacement ages and crystallization ages of many Meso-Cenozoic granitoids.
文摘Experiments on the partitioning of Cu between different granitic silicate melts and the respective coexisting aqueous fluids have been performed under conditions of 850 ℃, 100 MPa and oxygen fugacity （fO2） buffered at approaching Ni-NiO （NNO）. Partition coefficients of Cu （Dcu = Cfluid/Cmelt） were varied with different alumina/alkali mole ratios [Al2O3/（Na2O ＋ K2O）, abbreviated as Al/ Alk], Na/K mole ratios, and SiO2 mole contents. The DCu increased from 1.28 ± 0.01 to 22.18 ±0.22 with the increase of Al/Alk mole ratios （ranging from 0.64 to 1.20） and Na/K mole ratios （ranging from 0.58 to 2.56）. The experimental results also showed that Dcu was positively correlated with the HCl concentration of the starting fluid. The Dcu was independent of the SiO2 mole content in the range of SiO2 content considered. No Dcu value was less than 1 in our experiments at 850 ℃ and 100 MPa, indicating that Cu preferred to enter the fluid phase rather than the coexisting melt phase under most conditions in the melt-fluid system, and thus a significant amount of Cu could be transported in the fluid phase in the magmatichydrothermal environment. The results indicated that Cu favored partitioning into the aqueous fluid rather than the melt phase if there was a high Na/K ratio, Na-rich, peraluminous granitic melt coexisting with the high Cl^- fluid.

文摘Petrographic studies on Granitoids from Katchuan Irruan and adjoining areas,southeastern Nigeria,has shown that they are garnetiferous biotite granite,aplitic granite,porphyritic hornblende biotite granite,porphyritic muscovite biotite granite,weakly foliated leucogranodiorite and simple pegmatite.They are closely associated with the Precambrian Basement Complex rocks which they intruded.Modal analysis shows that the rocks consist of quartz(10%-25%),oligoclase(10%-30%),K-feldspar(15%-35%),biotite(3%-25%),with occasional garnet,hornblende,muscovite,and accessory chlorite,haematite and magnetite.Geochemical data indicates that the rocks are generally shoshonitic,alkali-calcic to calcic,ferroan and peraluminous.They are enriched in large ion lithophile elements as well as high field strength elements(Hf,Ta,Yb,Sm,Zr and Y).Their trace elements and REE patterns are similar,indicating that they are co-genetic.They are characterized by high fractionation factor(La/Yb)N(3.04-228.44)and pronounced negative Eu anomalies(Eu/Eu*)(0.23-0.71).Their overall geochemical features indicate that they were most likely derived from partial melting of crustal materials in an orogenic(post-collisional)tectonic setting.They are therefore related to the Pan-African granites,otherwise known as the Older Granites which were emplaced during the Pan African orogenic event.

文摘High-precision data on U and Th contents and Th/U ratios of zircon obtained using secondary ion mass spectrometry analysis have been collected from the literature. Zircon in the granitic rocks has median values of 350 ppm U, 140 ppm Th, and Th/U=0.52; the recommended zircon-melt partition coefficients are 81 for Du and 8.2 for DTh. In zircon from mafic and intermediate rocks, the median values are 270 ppm U, 170 ppm Th, and Th/U=0.81, and the recommended zirconmelt partition coefficients are 169 for Du and 59 for DTh. The U and Th contents and Th/U ratios of magmatic zircon are low when zircon crystallizes in equilibrium with the melt. Increasing magma temperature should promote higher Th contents relative to U contents, resulting in higher Th/U ratios for zircon in mafic to intermediate rocks than in granitic rocks. However, when zircon crystallizes in disequilibrium with the melt, U and Th are more easily able to enter the zircon lattice, and their contents and Th/U ratios depend mainly on the degree of disequilibrium.

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Rare element mineralized granites of me Yanshan period in Southern China are characterized by high contents of SiO2,Na2o,K2O,and F and are enriched in Nb,Ta,REE,W,Sn,Be and Li .Opinions differed over whether they are of metasomatk or magmatic origin .In this paper ,we present results of a study on melt and fluid inclusions in topaz-albite feldspar granite from Limo Nb-Ta-W-Sn granite and 414 Ta-Li albhe granite .Our data, which come from 15 mineralized granites, provide strong support magmatic origin .Mett inclusions are recognized in both topaz and quartz, and are associated with primary gas-rich incluaons.Crystallites of a Nb (Ta) -bearing mineral and cassiterite are also commonly present as inclusions in the topaz .Multiphase (mett+fluid) inclusions are observed in some quartz from granites and granite-related pegmatite .Mett inclusions start to mett at a temperature of approximately 540 ℃ in topaz and 650 ℃ in quartz .Final homogenization temperature is 700-900 ℃ in quartz ,700-800℃ in topaz and 440-550 ℃ for primary gas-rich inclusions coexisting with mett inclusions in topaz .The fluid inclusion data show that there was a continuous evobtion of the fluid from Nb-Ta granites and pegmatites to W-Sh hydrothermal vein. The coexistence of mett .vapour-rich fluid inclusions, and rare element crystaffites in topaz and quartz indicates that these minerals crystallized from a vapour-saturated mett enriched in Na.K,F and rare elements (Li,Be,Nb,Ta) .The evidence from fluid inclusion study shows that the possible genesis of the rare dement mineralization inLi-F granites of Yanshan period in Southern China results from magmatic differentiation .
文摘The studied granitic bodies belong to the south Eastern Desert of Egypt.They extend in a NNW–SSE trend along the same strike of the Nugrus weakness zone by which they are structurally controlled.These rocks are composed of biotite and biotite-muscovite monzogranites to syenogranites.Geochemically,a higher abundance of Ba and Rb in biotite granites with a relatively low abundance in biotite-muscovite granites as well as the diversity of Th,U,Nb,Ta,Zr,and REE reflects their origin from different sources and geodynamic settings.The biotite granites are predominantly metaluminous to low peraluminous whereas the biotite-muscovite granites have a peraluminous nature.Potassium enrichment at the expense of calcium in these rocks reflects a derivation from crustal sources by partial melting in the presence of a volatile system.Radiometric investigation showed high abundances of U(up to 38 ppm)and Th(up to 26 ppm)in biotite-muscovite granites relative to biotite granites(up to 5 ppm U and 18 ppm Th).Radioactive anomalies furthermore have been recorded in parts of biotite-muscovite granites that were affected by the faults(up to 116 ppm eU and 97 ppm eTh).Consequently,biotite-muscovite granites form a potentially fertile source for uranium mineralization.
文摘As a basis of modern petrology,the equilibrium relations describing the melting of granite were established mainly on melting experiments of Powder samples.Such experiments,however,have serious limitations in providing information about the variations in compositional and fabric features of the minerals and in the composition and distribution of the melt.Our experiments using massive samples indicate that melt occure mainly at the quartz-plagioclase and quartz-potash feldspar boundaries and the composition of the melt is dependent on local characteristics in the melting system,showing no correlation with the bulk composition of the rock samples.At lower temperatures(740-760℃,0.2GPa),the melt plots at or near the eutectic point in Q-Ab-Or-An-H2O diagram,indicating equilibrium melting.At higher temperatures(790-800℃，0.2GPa)the melt becomes lower in SiO2 and higher in Na2O,deviating makedly from the eutectic line but without disappearance of any mineral phase,suggesting a non-equilibrium process.It is obvious that the phase-equilibrium relations in natural massive granites may be greatly different from those deduced from powder experiments.

文摘The petrogenesis and genetic link to polymetallic mineralization of the granites in the Dayishan complex,southern Hunan province remain debated.Here,we present an integrated study on the petrology,zircon U-Pb ages and whole-rock geochemistry for this complex.Our findings indicate that the southern complex consists of(amphibole-bearing)biotite granites and muscovite granites emplaced at 153-151 Ma,and the central and northern complex consists of two-mica granites and tourmaline-bearing muscovite granites,respectively with the former emplaced at 164 Ma and the latter at 150 Ma.The(amphibole-bearing)biotite granites have SiO_(2) contents of 68.0-73.8 wt% and are enriched in alkalis and rare earth elements and depleted in Sr and Ba.They display Zr+Y+Ce+Nb>350 ppm and 10000×Ga/Al>2.6 along with high zircon saturation temperatures(821-883oC).The two-mica granites and(tourmaline-bearing)muscovite granites have high SiO_(2)(74.4-77.3 wt%)and low Ga/Al,Zr+Nb+Ce+Y,K/Rb,Zr/Hf,and Nb/Ta along with low zircon saturation temperatures(709-817℃).Geochemical characteristics suggest that the(amphibole-bearing)biotite granites are A-type granites generated through shallow dehydration melting of early Paleozoic granitoids,and that the two-mica granites and(tourmaline-bearing)muscovite granites are fractionated A-type granites produced through fractionation crystallization from the(amphibole-bearing)biotite granites accompanied by fluid fractionation.

文摘High-energy plasma jet rock-breaking technology is regarded as a very promising new drilling approach for deep hard rock,attributed to its high energy density,high rock-breaking efficiency,absence of mechanical wear,and capability to drill high-hardness rocks.However,the thermal characteristics and rockbreaking mechanism of plasma jet remains unclear.This study thoroughly investigates the internal temperature distribution characteristics of granite and the thermal removal mechanism of plasma jet with combined experimental and numerical approaches.The spallation temperature of granite is calculated based on the Weibull statistical theory of tensile failure.A numerical model of the thermal melting process of granite is developed to obtain the erosion morphology and temperature distribution characteristics during the rock-breaking process.The results indicate that the spallation temperature induced by the plasma jet is approximately 557℃,and the experimentally obtained hole profile on the upper surface coincides with the isotherm corresponding to the spallation temperature from the simulation.The temperature gradients of granite in the radial and axial directions of plasma arc operation can reach up to 38.79 and 66.13℃/mm,respectively.And the heat-affected region expands with increasing current.The optimal removal efficiency can be achieved between 20 and 30 s under various plasma current conditions,with the maximum value of 1188 mm^(3)/s at a current of 300 A.The plasma jet rock-breaking process can be characterized into three stages:dominant spalling in the early rockbreaking stage,followed by the coexistence of hot melting and spalling in the middle stage,and dominant high-temperature melting removal in the later stage.The results of this study provide theoretical guidance for engineering application of high-energy plasma jet rock-breaking drilling.
