锂同位素体系是示踪水-岩相互作用的有力工具，但关于其在洋壳高温蚀变过程中同位素分馏行为的认识仍不清晰。本文对国际大洋发现计划(IODP)U1502B钻孔的9个高温蚀变玄武岩开展了岩相学、全岩主、微量元素和锂同位素地球化学研究。结果表明，与新鲜洋中脊玄武岩相比，9个样品的Li含量偏高(4.8×10-6～11.6×10-6),δ7Li值偏轻(-3.8‰～+1.4‰)。岩相学与全岩地球化学特征表明，洋壳高温蚀变过程中产生的绿泥石矿物导致锂同位素分馏、δ7Li值变轻，后期的低温海水蚀变作用使得钻孔上部出现Li的局部富集。蚀变玄武岩的锂同位素特征指示，该钻孔的热液流体循环经历了一个较完整的演化过程，蚀变流体以高温热液为主且含有少量海水；随着取样深度的增加，玄武岩蚀变程度逐渐降低。 相似文献

板块运动驱动的洋壳再循环一直被认为是造成地幔化学成分不均一的主要原因。洋壳在从洋中脊形成到俯冲进入地幔的过程中,持续遭受一系列蚀变改造。这一过程不仅影响海水化学成分,同时也会改变洋壳的化学组成,尤其是一些易活泼元素及相应同位素体系的改变会更加显著。洋壳蚀变造成的影响会通过洋壳俯冲再循环而传递到地幔,进而影响到对地幔化学组成不均一性的认识。镁(Mg)同位素是研究深部碳循环和壳幔物质相互作用的一个新兴示踪计,已进入深部地幔的俯冲洋壳Mg同位素组成有可能受高温岩浆过程、俯冲变质过程以及低温蚀变过程的影响。已有的研究证明高温岩浆过程和洋壳俯冲变质-脱水过程中洋壳Mg同位素无显著分馏。然而,由于天然样品测试的数量较少且数据测试精度有限,关于低温蚀变过程中洋壳Mg同位素是否存在分馏尚未达到共识,这限制了利用Mg同位素对地幔不均一性和全球尺度物质再循环的研究。本文总结了已发表的蚀变洋壳的Mg同位素资料,讨论了洋壳低温蚀变过程(火山玻璃橙玄化、蛇纹石化和碳酸盐化)对Mg同位素体系的影响。这些信息对于认识洋壳蚀变过程中Mg同位素体系的详细行为至关重要,是确定下一步相关研究方向的重要参考。 相似文献

正Ba同位素由于具有在低温环境中分馏的特性,相比放射性同位素与微量元素,可以更好地示踪地球深部动力学过程中的再循环物质。研究表明沉积物与蚀变洋壳具有明显不同的Ba同位素组成(沉积物富集来自重晶石的Ba),使得Ba同位素成为研究表层与地幔储库间物质交换的有力工具。最近美国伍兹霍尔海洋研究所报道了来自全球洋中脊的21个MORB样品的Ba、Sr、Nd同位素和微量元素组成以及两个钻井中沉积物和蚀变洋壳 相似文献

前人对深俯冲板片释放熔/流体交代地幔楔形成弧岩浆源区的过程和机制已得到充分认识,然而对地幔楔岩石能否脱水交代深俯冲地壳并不清楚.在对欧洲西阿尔卑斯造山带Dora-Maira地体白片岩的地球化学研究中,首次发现地幔楔交代岩能够脱水反向交代深俯冲地壳岩石,从而极大影响俯冲地壳的地球化学组成.结合白片岩和围岩的全岩地球化学特征以及锆石学结果,查明了白片岩的原岩为S型花岗岩,澄清了关于Dora-Maira白片岩原岩属性的长期争议.在此基础上,发现白片岩中变质锆石相对残留岩浆锆石δ18O值显著降低,指示原岩形成后受到低δ18O变质流体的交代作用.白片岩具有高温岩石中最高的δ26Mg值达0.75‰,显著高于围岩变花岗岩,指示交代流体具有重Mg同位素组成.基于地球主要岩石储库的Mg同位素组成,推测交代流体来自俯冲隧道中富滑石地幔楔蛇纹岩在弧下深度的脱水分解,而这些地幔楔蛇纹岩是新特提斯洋壳在弧前深度变质脱水产生的流体与地幔楔浅部橄榄岩反应形成.这些结果不仅提供了利用Mg-O同位素示踪俯冲隧道中流体来源的新思路,也提供了地幔楔蛇纹岩来源流体反向交代深俯冲地壳岩石的首个典型实例.这种反向交代不仅极大改变了深俯冲地壳的地球化学组成,而且对弧岩浆岩重Mg同位素成因具有重要意义. 相似文献

锂同位素示踪是近几年发展起来的一门新兴的稳定同位素地球化学方法,锂有两个稳定同位素：^6Li和^7Li。自在界锂同位素的组成变化很大,其δ^6Li值变化幅度超过60‰,现代大洋水的δ^6Li值为－31．0‰,洋中脊玄武岩（BORB）的δ^6Li值为－4．7‰--3.7‰,由于锂同位素存在大的分馏和不同地质体中在截然不同的δ^6Li值,因此锂同位素地质应用前景十分广泛。目前,锂同位素在研究星云形成过程和宇宙事件,洋壳蚀变和海底热液活动,壳－幔物质循环和板块俯冲作用过程,判断卤水起源和演化等方面的研究中成效显著。 相似文献

金属稳定同位素体系是示踪板块俯冲对壳幔物质再循环影响的全新工具,因此其在俯冲带的地球化学行为备受关注.Mg同位素在俯冲过程中不发生显著分馏,但大陆玄武岩具有低于洋中脊玄武岩的Mg同位素,这可能是碳酸岩的俯冲再循环导致的.与角闪岩继承原岩的Li同位素组成不同,榴辉岩具有轻于原岩的Li同位素组成,可归因于俯冲折返过程中的动力学扩散、脱水反应或低Li同位素的流体交代.作为变价元素,Fe和Cr的同位素在榴辉岩的形成过程中均不发生显著分馏,但是蛇纹岩的Fe同位素和Cr同位素与氧逸度指标具有相关性,指示氧化还原条件变化时脱水过程或流体交代会导致同位素分馏. 相似文献

为了探讨俯冲沉积物与蚀变洋壳组分对弧后盆地岩浆作用的影响,利用独立成分分析从劳盆地、马努斯盆地,以及太平洋与印度洋共634组Sr-Nd-Pb同位素数据中提取了5个独立成分(IC1—IC5)。其中:IC1与_87Sr/_86Sr、Th/Nb值为负相关关系,表明其能够代表弧下地幔中的俯冲沉积物熔体组分的影响,能够很好地区别弧后盆地与洋中脊;弧后盆地IC5与Ba/Th值为负相关关系,暗示其能够反映弧下地幔中的俯冲蚀变洋壳脱水流体组分的影响;IC5与κ值(1.03Th/U)之间的关系,也说明洋中脊IC5可能与地幔中再循环蚀变洋壳的年龄有关。进而通过对比马努斯和劳盆地岩石中IC1与IC5间的差异,发现马努斯盆地东部裂谷(ER)表现出绝对值更高的IC1负异常以及与劳盆地相似的IC5特征,而马努斯盆地扩张中心与扩张转换带(MSC&ETZ)则表现出类似劳盆地的IC1特征以及更高的IC5正异常特征。两个盆地间的差异表明,ER更多地受到沉积物熔体组分影响,MSC&ETZ更少地受到俯冲洋壳脱水流体组分影响。其中,沉积物熔体组分影响可能与New Britain trench与Tonga trench巨大的沉积物厚度差异有关,而俯冲洋壳脱水流体组分影响可能受到了弧后扩张中心与俯冲带间距离的控制。 相似文献

Iron isotope fractionation in subduction-related high-pressure metabasites (Ile de Groix,France) 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
Characterisation of mass transfer during subduction is fundamental to understand the origin of compositional heterogeneities in the upper mantle. Fe isotopes were measured in high-pressure/low-temperature metabasites (blueschists, eclogites and retrograde greenschists) from the Ile de Groix (France), a Variscan high-pressure terrane, to determine if the subducted oceanic crust contributes to mantle Fe isotope heterogeneities. The metabasites have δ56Fe values of +0.16 to +0.33‰, which are heavier than typical values of MORB and OIB, indicating that their basaltic protolith derives from a heavy-Fe mantle source. The δ56Fe correlates well with Y/Nb and (La/Sm)PM ratios, which commonly fractionate during magmatic processes, highlighting variations in the magmatic protolith composition. In addition, the shift of δ56Fe by +0.06 to 0.10‰ compared to basalts may reflect hydrothermal alteration prior to subduction. The δ56Fe decrease from blueschists (+0.19 ± 0.03 to +0.33 ± 0.01‰) to eclogites (+0.16 ± 0.02 to +0.18 ± 0.03‰) reflects small variations in the protolith composition, rather than Fe fractionation during metamorphism: newly-formed Fe-rich minerals allowed preserving bulk rock Fe compositions during metamorphic reactions and hampered any Fe isotope fractionation. Greenschists have δ56Fe values (+0.17 ± 0.01 to +0.27 ± 0.02‰) similar to high-pressure rocks. Hence, metasomatism related to fluids derived from the subducted hydrothermally altered metabasites might only have a limited effect on mantle Fe isotope composition under subsolidus conditions, owing to the large stability of Fe-rich minerals and low mobility of Fe. Subsequent melting of the heavy-Fe metabasites at deeper levels is expected to generate mantle Fe isotope heterogeneities. 相似文献

Komatiites from Alexo, Canada, are well preserved and represent high-degree partial mantle melts (∼50%). They are thus well suited for investigating the Mg and Fe isotopic compositions of the Archean mantle and the conditions of magmatic differentiation in komatiitic lavas. High precision Mg and Fe isotopic analyses of 22 samples taken along a 15-m depth profile in a komatiite flow are reported. The δ25Mg and δ26Mg values of the bulk flow are −0.138 ± 0.021‰ and −0.275 ± 0.042‰, respectively. These values are indistinguishable from those measured in mantle peridotites and chondrites, and represent the best estimate of the composition of the silicate Earth from analysis of volcanic rocks. Excluding the samples affected by secondary Fe mobilization, the δ56Fe and δ57Fe values of the bulk flow are +0.044 ± 0.030‰, and +0.059 ± 0.044‰, respectively. These values are consistent with a near-chondritic Fe isotopic composition of the silicate Earth and minor fractionation during komatiite magma genesis. In order to explain the early crystallization of pigeonite relative to augite in slowly cooled spinifex lavas, it was suggested that magmas trapped in the crystal mush during spinifex growth differentiated by Soret effect, which should be associated with large and coupled variations in the isotopic compositions of Mg and Fe. The lack of variations in Mg and Fe isotopic ratios either rules out the Soret effect in the komatiite flow or the effect is effaced as the solidification front migrates downward through the flow crust. Olivine separated from a cumulate sample has light δ56Fe and slightly heavy δ26Mg values relative to the bulk flow, which modeling shows can be explained by kinetic isotope fractionation associated with Fe-Mg inter-diffusion in olivine. Such variations can be used to identify diffusive processes involved in the formation of zoned minerals. 相似文献

To constrain further the Mg isotopic composition of the Earth and chondrites, and investigate the behavior of Mg isotopes during planetary formation and magmatic processes, we report high-precision (±0.06‰ on δ25Mg and ±0.07‰ on δ26Mg, 2SD) analyses of Mg isotopes for (1) 47 mid-ocean ridge basalts covering global major ridge segments and spanning a broad range in latitudes, geochemical and radiogenic isotopic compositions; (2) 63 ocean island basalts from Hawaii (Kilauea, Koolau and Loihi) and French Polynesia (Society Island and Cook-Austral chain); (3) 29 peridotite xenoliths from Australia, China, France, Tanzania and USA; and (4) 38 carbonaceous, ordinary and enstatite chondrites including 9 chondrite groups (CI, CM, CO, CV, L, LL, H, EH and EL).Oceanic basalts and peridotite xenoliths have similar Mg isotopic compositions, with average values of δ25Mg = −0.13 ± 0.05 (2SD) and δ26Mg = −0.26 ± 0.07 (2SD) for global oceanic basalts (n = 110) and δ25Mg = −0.13 ± 0.03 (2SD) and δ26Mg = −0.25 ± 0.04 (2SD) for global peridotite xenoliths (n = 29). The identical Mg isotopic compositions in oceanic basalts and peridotites suggest that equilibrium Mg isotope fractionation during partial melting of peridotite mantle and magmatic differentiation of basaltic magma is negligible. Thirty-eight chondrites have indistinguishable Mg isotopic compositions, with δ25Mg = −0.15 ± 0.04 (2SD) and δ26Mg = −0.28 ± 0.06 (2SD). The constancy of Mg isotopic compositions in all major types of chondrites suggest that primary and secondary processes that affected the chemical and oxygen isotopic compositions of chondrites did not significantly fractionate Mg isotopes.Collectively, the Mg isotopic composition of the Earth’s mantle, based on oceanic basalts and peridotites, is estimated to be −0.13 ± 0.04 for δ25Mg and −0.25 ± 0.07 for δ26Mg (2SD, n = 139). The Mg isotopic composition of the Earth, as represented by the mantle, is similar to chondrites. The chondritic composition of the Earth implies that Mg isotopes were well mixed during accretion of the inner solar system. 相似文献

Inter-mineral Fe isotope variations in mantle-derived rocks and implications for the Fe geochemical cycle 总被引：5，自引：0，他引：5
Iron isotope and major- and minor-element compositions of coexisting olivine, clinopyroxene, and orthopyroxene from eight spinel peridotite mantle xenoliths; olivine, magnetite, amphibole, and biotite from four andesitic volcanic rocks; and garnet and clinopyroxene from seven garnet peridotite and eclogites have been measured to evaluate if inter-mineral Fe isotope fractionation occurs in high-temperature igneous and metamorphic minerals and if isotopic fractionation is related to equilibrium Fe isotope partitioning or a result of open-system behavior. There is no measurable fractionation between silicate minerals and magnetite in andesitic volcanic rocks, nor between olivine and orthopyroxene in spinel peridotite mantle xenoliths. There are some inter-mineral differences (up to 0.2‰ in 56Fe/54Fe) in the Fe isotope composition of coexisting olivine and clinopyroxene in spinel peridotites. The Fe isotope fractionation observed between clinopyroxene and olivine appears to be a result of open-system behavior based on a positive correlation between the Δ56Feclinopyroxene-olivine fractionation and the δ56Fe value of clinopyroxene and olivine. There is also a significant difference in the isotopic compositions of garnet and clinopyroxene in garnet peridotites and eclogites, where the average Δ56Feclinopyroxene-garnet fractionation is +0.32 ± 0.07‰ for six of the seven samples. The one sample that has a lower Δ56Feclinopyroxene-garnet fractionation of 0.08‰ has a low Ca content in garnet, which may reflect some crystal chemical control on Fe isotope fractionation. The Fe isotope variability in mantle-derived minerals is interpreted to reflect subduction of isotopically variable oceanic crust, followed by transport through metasomatic fluids. Isotopic variability in the mantle might also occur during crystal fractionation of basaltic magmas within the mantle if garnet is a liquidus phase. The isotopic variations in the mantle are apparently homogenized during melting processes, producing homogenous Fe isotope compositions during crust formation. 相似文献

在不同的俯冲深度,俯冲板片会释放出不同来源和组成的熔/流体进入俯冲隧道中,并进而影响上覆地幔楔及衍生岛弧岩浆的地球化学组成.然而,如何识别俯冲隧道中不同深度熔/流体组分的来源一直是俯冲带研究中的难点.对不同深度来源的地幔楔超基性岩进行了Mg同位素研究,发现了Mg同位素具有示踪俯冲板块熔/流体来源的能力.首先,研究了美国加州Franciscan杂岩中一套经历了多期次流体交代作用的浅部来源（< ~60 km）的变质超基性岩.这些部分蛇纹石化的地幔楔超基性岩在蛇纹石脱水形成滑石的过程中会释放轻Mg同位素进入流体,而重Mg同位素更多地残留在滑石相中;随后进一步受俯冲板块来源流体的交代形成具有高CaO和轻Mg同位素组成的透闪石化变橄榄岩,暗示流体中含有源自俯冲板片的、富集轻Mg同位素的碳酸盐,说明在弧前~60 km深度,部分含Mg碳酸盐（方解石）可以在俯冲隧道中发生溶解并迁移交代上覆地幔楔橄榄岩.对深部地幔楔来源（~160 km）的大别造山带毛屋地区超镁铁质岩体岩相学和元素地球化学研究结果证实了其交代成因.结合多相包裹体、元素地球化学以及前人估计的温-压条件,推测交代介质更接近超临界流体.锆石U-Pb年代学研究揭示,交代作用主要发生在古生代洋壳俯冲阶段（454±58 Ma）,超高压变质作用则发生在三叠纪陆壳俯冲阶段（232.8±7.9 Ma）.古生代锆石中大量的碳酸盐矿物包裹体和重O同位素特征说明古生代洋壳俯冲交代过程中有沉积碳酸盐组分加入.全岩和单矿物的Mg同位素组成均显著低于地幔值以及大别新元古代榴辉岩,说明交代的碳酸盐组分来源应为循环的沉积富Mg碳酸盐,暗示了在俯冲带深部富Mg沉积碳酸盐在超临界流体中会发生溶解迁移.由于沉积碳酸盐具有独特的、显著富集轻Mg同位素组成的特征,这种交代作用会造成地幔楔局部具有异常的Mg同位素组成,从而解释目前观察到的岛弧火山岩的Mg同位素特征.因此,Mg同位素是示踪俯冲碳酸盐与上覆地幔楔相互作用的有效工具. 相似文献

The Izu-Bonin arc system is sediment-poor(～400 m thick with no accretionary prism) and,therefore,the influence of the altered oceanic crust(AOC) is most likely the source of the documented along-arc lava compositional variations,especially in Pb isotopes.Izu-Bonin arc lava geochemistry suggests an influx of subduction component from an Indian-type AOC.However,samples drilled from the western Pacific geochemical reference site at Integrated Ocean Drilling Program Site 1149 implies subduction of a Pacific-type AOC.To solve the apparent discrepancy of slab input versus arc output in this arc system,samples of the AOC were dredged from vertical fault scarps of the subducting Pacific Plate along a transect from 27.5°N to 34.50 N.Samples range from tholeiitic to mildly alkalic mid-ocean ridge basalts as well as trachybasalts,basaltic trachyandesites,tephrites,and phono-tephrites.Isotope ratios also exhibit a range of values(~(87)Sr/~(86)Sr=0.70282-0.70673,143 Nd/144 Nd=0.512552-0.513174,~(206)Pb/204 Pb=18.43-20.00,207 Pb/204 Pb=15.40-15.67,~(208)Pb/~(204)Pb=37.75-39.55).Our results suggest that there is a geochemical variation in the AOC that is neither completely due to seawater or hydrothermal alteration,nor to petrogenetic processes.Rather,this variation is the result of the Pacific-Izanagi Ridge system tapping into a heterogeneous,plume-polluted mantle source during the Mid-Cretaceous volcanic event.The observed Pacific-type AOC is not responsible for the Indian-type Pb isotopic signature of Izu-Bonin arc lavas.This leads us to propose an alternative scenario where the Izu-Bonin arc lava Indian-type Pb isotopic signature originates from slab-derived fluids interacting and adsorbing Pb from an Indian-type mantle wedge through zone-refining. 相似文献

The Stonyford Volcanic Complex: a Forearc Seamount in the Northern California Coast Ranges 总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2

Jurassic age volcanic rocks of the Stonyford volcanic complex(SFVC) comprise three distinct petrological groups based ontheir whole-rock geochemistry: (1) oceanic tholeiites; (2) transitionalalkali basalts and glasses; (3) high-Al, low-Ti tholeiites.Major and trace element, and Sr–Nd–Pb isotopic dataindicate that the oceanic tholeiites formed as low-degree partialmelts of normal mid-ocean ridge basalt (N-MORB)-source asthenospheresimilar in isotope composition to the East Pacific Rise today;the alkalic lavas were derived from an enriched source similarto that of E-MORB. The high-Al, low-Ti lavas resemble second-stagemelts of a depleted MORB-source asthenosphere that formed bymelting spinel lherzolite at low pressures. Trace element systematicsof the high-Al, low-Ti basalts show the influence of an enrichedcomponent, which overprints generally depleted trace elementcharacteristics. Tectonic discrimination diagrams show thatthe oceanic tholeiite and alkali suites are similar to present-daybasalts generated at mid-oceanic ridges. The high-Al, low-Tisuite resembles primitive arc basalts with an enriched, alkalibasalt-like overprint. Isotopic data show the influence of recycledcomponents in all three suites. The SFVC was constructed ona substrate of normal Coast Range ophiolite in an extensionalforearc setting. The close juxtaposition of the MORB-like olivinetholeiites with alkali and high-Al, low-Ti basalts suggestsderivation from a hybrid mantle source region that includedMORB-source asthenosphere, enriched oceanic asthenosphere, andthe depleted supra-subduction zone mantle wedge. We proposethat the SFVC formed in response to collision of a mid-oceanridge spreading center with the Coast Range ophiolite subductionzone. Formation of a slab window beneath the forearc duringcollision allowed the influx of ridge-derived magmas or themantle source of these magmas. Continued melting of the previouslydepleted mantle wedge above the now defunct subduction zoneproduced strongly depleted high-Al, low-Ti basalts that werepartially fertilized with enriched, alkali basalt-type meltsand slab-derived fluids.

Seamounts are an integral part of element recycling in global subduction zones. The published trace element and Pb-Sr-Nd isotope data for basaltic lavas from three key segments (Central Lau Spreading Ridge (CLSR), Eastern Lau Spreading Ridge (ELSR), and Valu Fa Ridge (VFR)) of the Lau back-arc basin were compiled to evaluate the contribution of Louisville seamount materials to their magma genesis. Two geochemical transitions, separating three provinces with distinct geochemical characteristics independent of ridge segmentation, were identified based on abrupt geochemical shifts. The origin of the geochemical transitions was determined to be the result of drastic compositional changes of subduction components added into the mantle source, rather than the transition from Indian to Pacific mid-ocean ridge basalt (MORB) mantle, or due to variable mantle fertilities. The most likely explanation for the drastic shifts in subduction input is the superimposition of Louisville materials on ‘normal’ subduction components consisting predominantly of aqueous fluids liberated from the down-going altered oceanic crust and minor pelagic sediment melts. Quantitative estimation reveals that Louisville materials contributed 0–74% and 21–83% of the Th budget, respectively, to CLSR and VFR lavas, but had no definite contribution to the lavas from the ELSR, which lies farthest away from the subducted Louisville seamount chain (LSC). The spatial association of the subducted LSC with the Louisville-affected segments suggests that the Louisville signature is regionally but not locally available in the Tonga subduction zone. Besides, the preferential melting of subducted old Cretaceous LSC crust instead of the old normal Pacific oceanic crust at similar depths implies that elevated temperature across the subduction interface or seamount erosion and rupture were required to trigger melting. A wider implication of this study, thus, is that seamount subduction may promote efficiency of element recycling in subduction zones. 相似文献

We present high-precision measurements of Mg and Fe isotopic compositions of olivine, orthopyroxene (opx), and clinopyroxene (cpx) for 18 lherzolite xenoliths from east central China and provide the first combined Fe and Mg isotopic study of the upper mantle. δ56Fe in olivines varies from 0.18‰ to −0.22‰ with an average of −0.01 ± 0.18‰ (2SD, n = 18), opx from 0.24‰ to −0.22‰ with an average of 0.04 ± 0.20‰, and cpx from 0.24‰ to −0.16‰ with an average of 0.10 ± 0.19‰. δ26Mg of olivines varies from −0.25‰ to −0.42‰ with an average of −0.34 ± 0.10‰ (2SD, n = 18), opx from −0.19‰ to −0.34‰ with an average of −0.25 ± 0.10‰, and cpx from −0.09‰ to −0.43‰ with an average of −0.24 ± 0.18‰. Although current precision (∼±0.06‰ for δ56Fe; ±0.10‰ for δ26Mg, 2SD) limits the ability to analytically distinguish inter-mineral isotopic fractionations, systematic behavior of inter-mineral fractionation for both Fe and Mg is statistically observed: Δ56Feol-cpx = −0.10 ± 0.12‰ (2SD, n = 18); Δ56Feol-opx = −0.05 ± 0.11‰; Δ26Mgol-opx = −0.09 ± 0.12‰; Δ26Mgol-cpx = −0.10 ± 0.15‰. Fe and Mg isotopic composition of bulk rocks were calculated based on the modes of olivine, opx, and cpx. The average δ56Fe of peridotites in this study is 0.01 ± 0.17‰ (2SD, n = 18), similar to the values of chondrites but slightly lower than mid-ocean ridge basalts (MORB) and oceanic island basalts (OIB). The average δ26Mg is −0.30 ± 0.09‰, indistinguishable from chondrites, MORB, and OIB. Our data support the conclusion that the bulk silicate Earth (BSE) has chondritic δ56Fe and δ26Mg.The origin of inter-mineral fractionations of Fe and Mg isotopic ratios remains debated. δ56Fe between the main peridotite minerals shows positive linear correlations with slopes within error of unity, strongly suggesting intra-sample mineral-mineral Fe and Mg isotopic equilibrium. Because inter-mineral isotopic equilibrium should be reached earlier than major element equilibrium via chemical diffusion at mantle temperatures, Fe and Mg isotope ratios of coexisting minerals could be useful tools for justifying mineral thermometry and barometry on the basis of chemical equilibrium between minerals. Although most peridotites in this study exhibit a narrow range in δ56Fe, the larger deviations from average δ56Fe for three samples likely indicate changes due to metasomatic processes. Two samples show heavy δ56Fe relative to the average and they also have high La/Yb and total Fe content, consistent with metasomatic reaction between peridotite and Fe-rich and isotopically heavy melt. The other sample has light δ56Fe and slightly heavy δ26Mg, which may reflect Fe-Mg inter-diffusion between peridotite and percolating melt. 相似文献
