Base metal–Ag mineralisation at Dikulushi and in other deposits on the Kundelungu Plateau (Democratic Republic of Congo) developed
during two episodes. Subeconomic Cu–Pb–Zn–Fe polysulphide ores were generated during the Lufilian Orogeny (c. 520 Ma ago)
in a set of E–W- and NE–SW-oriented faults. Their lead has a relatively unradiogenic and internally inhomogeneous isotopic
composition (206Pb/204Pb = 18.07–18.49), most likely generated by mixing of Pb from isotopically heterogeneous clastic sources. These sulphides
were remobilised and enriched after the Lufilian Orogeny, along reactivated and newly formed NE–SW-oriented faults into a
chalcocite-dominated Cu–Ag mineralisation of high economic interest. The chalcocite samples contain only trace amounts of
lead and show mostly radiogenic Pb isotope signatures that fall along a linear trend in the 207Pb/204Pb vs. 206Pb/204Pb diagram (206Pb/204Pb = 18.66–23.65; 207Pb/204Pb = 15.72–16.02). These anomalous characteristics reflect a two-stage evolution involving admixture of both radiogenic lead
and uranium during a young fluid event possibly c. 100 Ma ago. The Pb isotope systematics of local host rocks to mineralisation
also indicate some comparable young disturbance of their U–Th–Pb systems, related to the same event. They could have provided
Pb with sufficiently radiogenic compositions that was added to less radiogenic Pb remobilised from precursor Cu–Pb–Zn–Fe polysulphides,
whereas the U most likely originated from external sources. Local metal sources are also suggested by the 208Pb/204Pb–206Pb/204Pb systematics of combined ore and rock lead, which indicate a pronounced and diversified lithological control of the immediate
host rocks on the chalcocite-dominated Cu–Ag ores. The Pb isotope systematics of polysulphide mineralisation on the Kundelungu
Plateau clearly record a diachronous evolution. 相似文献

A precise U–Pb age on cassiterite from the Xianghualing tin-polymetallic deposit (Hunan,South China)

We report the first precise U–Pb isotope data on cassiterite from the large Xianghualing tin-polymetallic deposit in the
central Nanling district, South China. The results show that four separates from sample XF-51 have a relatively narrow range
of 206Pb/238U apparent ages, varying from 152 to 157 Ma, and the three 206Pb/238U apparent ages yield a weighted average value of 156 ± 4 Ma (MSWD = 0.32). Separates from two other cassiterite samples do
not have sufficient radiogenic Pb to generate a reliable 206Pb/238U age. Seven separates from the above three cassiterite samples define a well-constrained 238U–206Pb isochron corresponding to an age of 157 ± 6 Ma (MSWD = 34). A comparison of the U–Pb cassiterite ages with published Ar–Ar
dates on muscovite from this deposit and K–Ar age data on biotite from the pluton genetically related to the tin mineralization
in this area demonstrates that the U–Pb isotope system of cassiterite is a potential geochronometer. Combined with the Ar–Ar
dates of muscovite from this deposit, we can constrain the absolute age of tin-polymetallic mineralization in Xianghualing
at 154–157 Ma. The dates obtained in this study, consistent with the published geochronological results from other important
deposits in this region, reveal that the large-scale tungsten–tin mineralization in the central Nanling region was predominantly
emplaced during 150–161 Ma. 相似文献

The Rb-Sr and U-Pb systematics have been studied in the metasedimentary carbonate rocks from the Paleoproterozoic Kuetsjarvi
Formation. Samples were taken from the borehole drilled in the northern zone of the Pechenga Greenstone Belt in the northwestern
Kola Peninsula. The carbonate section of the formation is made up of three units (from the bottom to top): (I) dolomite (68
m), (II) calcareous-dolomite (9 m), and (III) clayey calcareous (1 m) ones. Dolomites (Mg/Ca = 0.55–0.61) from the lowermost
unit I contain 70.3–111 ppm Sr. Initial 87Sr/86Sr ratio in them varies within 0.70560–0.70623 and characterizes the primary continental-lacustrine carbonate sediments. Calcareous
dolomites (Mg/Ca = 0.39–0.59) and dolomitic limestones of units II and III (Mg/Ca = 0.02–0.36) are enriched in Sr (285–745
and 550–1750 ppm, respectively). Initial 87Sr/86Sr ratios in these rocks (0.70406–0.70486 and 0.70407–0.70431, respectively) fall within the range typical of the Jatulian
seawater, which indicates that the carbonate sediments of two upper units were formed in an open marine basin. Study of dolomites
from unit I showed that the Svecofennian metamorphism more significantly affected the U-Pb systems of carbonate rocks as compared
to their Rb-Sr systems. In the 207Pb/204Pb-206Pb/204Pb diagram, most data points corresponding to the carbonate constituent of dolomites define isochron with an age of 1900 ±
25 Ma (MSWD = 0.5). The same samples define a positive correlation in the 208Pb/204Pb-206Pb/204Pb plot. Since sedimentary carbonates usually do not contain Th, this correlation points to secondary enrichment of the studied
dolomites in Th or thorogenic 208Pb. Hence, the obtained Pb-Pb dating can be regarded as the age of the Svecofennian metamorphic event. Three samples from
dolomites of unit I lack any disturbance of the initial U-Th-Pb systematics, but their trend in the 207Pb/204Pb-206Pb/204Pb diagram deviates from the 1900 Ma isochron. Based on these samples, the model U-Pb premetamorphic age of the Kuetsjarvi
carbonate sediments is 2075–2100 Ma. This interval is consistent with the age range of the Lomagundi-Jatulian event, which
was responsible for the formation of carbonate sediments with high positive δ13C values. 相似文献

28 samples of Cenozoic volcanic rocks collected from Shandong Province have been dated by K-Ar method. They are mainly Neogene
with an age range of 4–19 m. y. The basalts from Linqu and Yishui in west Shandong Province are Miocene and those from Penglai
and Qixia in east Shandong Province are Miocene and Pliocene in age. The basalts from Wudi in north Shandong Province are
Middle-Early Pleistocene in age. In each area the duration of volcanic eruption was estimated at about 2–3 m. y.
Pb and Sr isotopic compositions and U, Th, Pb, Rb, Sr, and major elements in most of the samples were determined. The isotopic
compositions are:206Pb/204Pb—16.92-18.48,207Pb/204Pb—15.30-15.59,208Pb/204Pb—37.83-38.54, and (87Sr/86Sr)i—0.70327-0.70632. There are some positive or negative linear correlations between206Pb/204Pb and207Pb/204Pb, Pb isotopes and Pb content, Pb isotopes and Sr isotopes, and Sr isotopes and other elements. The basaltic rocks from east
and west Shandong Province have somewhat differences in isotopic composition and element content. The basalts probably are
products of multi-stage evolution of the mantle. They have preserved the primary features of the source, although they were
influenced, to some extent, by the contamination of crustal materials. 相似文献

The Chelopech deposit is one of the largest European gold deposits and is located 60 km east of Sofia, within the northern
part of the Panagyurishte mineral district. It lies within the Banat–Srednegorie metallogenic belt, which extends from Romania
through Serbia to Bulgaria. The magmatic rocks define a typical calc-alkaline suite. The magmatic rocks surrounding the Chelopech
deposit have been affected by propylitic, quartz–sericite, and advanced argillic alteration, but the igneous textures have
been preserved. Alteration processes have resulted in leaching of Na2O, CaO, P2O5, and Sr and enrichment in K2O and Rb. Trace element variation diagrams are typical of subduction-related volcanism, with negative anomalies in high field
strength elements (HFSE) and light element, lithophile elements. HFSE and rare earth elements were relatively immobile during
the hydrothermal alteration related to ore formation. Based on immobile element classification diagrams, the magmatic rocks
are andesitic to dacitic in compositions. Single zircon grains, from three different magmatic rocks spanning the time of the
Chelopech magmatism, were dated by high-precision U–Pb geochronology. Zircons of an altered andesitic body, which has been
thrust over the deposit, yield a concordant 206Pb/238U age of 92.21 ± 0.21 Ma. This age is interpreted as the crystallization age and the maximum age for magmatism at Chelopech.
Zircon analyses of a dacitic dome-like body, which crops out to the north of the Chelopech deposit, give a mean 206Pb/238U age of 91.95 ± 0.28 Ma. Zircons of the andesitic hypabyssal body hosting the high-sulfidation mineralization and overprinted
by hydrothermal alteration give a concordant 206Pb/238U age of 91.45 ± 0.15 Ma. This age is interpreted as the intrusion age of the andesite and as the maximum age of the Chelopech
epithermal high-sulfidation deposit. 176Hf/177Hf isotope ratios of zircons from the Chelopech magmatic rocks, together with published data on the Chelopech area and the
about 92-Ma-old Elatsite porphyry–Cu deposit, suggest two different magma sources in the Chelopech–Elatsite magmatic area.
Magmatic rocks associated with the Elatsite porphyry–Cu deposit and the dacitic dome-like body north of Chelopech are characterized
by zircons with ɛHfT90 values of ∼5, which suggest an important input of mantle-derived magma. Some zircons display lower ɛHfT90 values, as low as −6, and correlate with increasing 206Pb/238U ages up to about 350 Ma, suggesting assimilation of basement rocks during magmatism. In contrast, zircon grains in andesitic
rocks from Chelopech are characterized by homogeneous 176Hf/177Hf isotope ratios with ɛHfT90 values of ∼1 and suggest a homogeneous mixed crust–mantle magma source. We conclude that the Elatsite porphyry–Cu and the
Chelopech high-sulfidation epithermal deposits were formed within a very short time span and could be partly contemporaneous.
However, they are related to two distinct upper crustal magmatic reservoirs, and they cannot be considered as a genetically
paired porphyry–Cu and high-sulfidation epithermal related to a single magmatic–hydrothermal system centered on the same intrusion. 相似文献

The Jurassic to Early Cretaceous magmatic arc of the Andes in northern Chile was a site of major additions of juvenile magmas from the subarc mantle to the continental crust. The combined effect of extension and a near stationary position of the Jurassic to lower Cretaceous arc favoured the emplacement and preservation of juvenile magmatic rocks on a large vertical and horizontal scale. Chemical and Sr, Nd, and Pb isotopic compositions of mainly mafic to intermediate volcanic and intrusive rock units coherently indicate the generation of the magmas in a subduction regime and the dominance of a depleted subarc mantle source over contributions of the ambient Palaeozoic crust. The isotopic composition of the Jurassic (206Pb/204Pb: ∼ 18.2; 207Pb/204Pb: ∼ 15.55; 143Nd/144Nd: ∼ 0.51277; 87Sr/86Sr: ∼ 0.703–0.704) and Present (206Pb/204Pb: ∼ 18.5; 207Pb/204Pb: ∼ 15.57; 143Nd/144Nd: ∼ 0.51288; 87Sr/86Sr: ∼ 0.703–0.704) depleted subarc mantle beneath the Central and Southern Andes (18°–40°S) was likely uniform over the entire region. Small differences of isotope ratios between Jurassic and Cenozoic to Recent of subarc mantle-derived could be explained by radiogenic growth in a still uniform mantle source.Electronic Supplementary Material Supplementary material is available to authorised users in the online version of this article at . 相似文献

The REE and Pb, Sr, Nd isotopes in three xenoliths from limburgite and scoria-breccias, including spinel-lherzolite, spinel-garnet-lherzolite
and phlogopite-gamet-lherzolite, were analysed. The REE contents of the xenoliths are 1.3 to 3.3 times those of the chondrites
with their REE patterns characterized by weak LREE depletion. The143Nd/144Nd values of whole rocks and minerals range from 0.51306 to 0.51345 with εNd=+ 8.2− +15.8,206Pb/204 Pb < 18.673, and207Pb/204Pb < 15.574. All this goes to show that the upper mantle in Mingxi at the depth of 67–82 km is a depleted mantle of MORB type,
with87Sr/86 Sr ratios 0.70237–0.70390. In Nd-Sr diagram the data points of whole rocks are all out of the mantle array, implying that
the xenoliths from Mingxi have more radiogenic Sr isotopes than those of the mantle array. 相似文献

The problem of mantle metasomatism vs. crustal contamination in the genesis of arc magmas with different potassium contents
has been investigated using new trace element and Sr–Nd–Pb isotopic data on the island of Vulcano, Aeolian arc. The analysed
rocks range in age from 120 ka to the present day, and cover a compositional range from basalt to rhyolite of the high-K calc-alkaline
(HKCA) to shoshonitic (SHO) and potassic (KS) series. Older Vulcano products (>30 ka) consist of HKCA–SHO rocks with SiO2=48–56%. They show lower contents of K2O, Rb and of several other incompatible trace element abundances and ratios than younger rocks with comparable degree of evolution.
87Sr/86Sr ranges from 0.70417 to 0.70504 and increases with decreasing MgO and compatible element contents. 206Pb/204Pb ratios display significant variations (19.31 to 19.76) and are positively correlated with MgO, 143Nd/144Nd (0.512532–0.512768), 207Pb/204Pb (15.66–15.71) and 208Pb/204Pb (39.21–39.49). Overall, geochemical and isotopic data suggest that the evolution of the older series was dominated by assimilation–fractional
crystallisation (AFC) with an important role for continuous mixing with mafic liquids. Magmas erupted within the last 30 ka
consist mostly of SHO and KS intermediate and acid rocks, with minor mafic products. Except for a few acid rocks, they display
moderate isotopic variations (e.g. 87Sr/86Sr=0.70457–0.70484; 206Pb/204Pb=19.28–19.55, but 207Pb/204Pb=15.66–15.82), which suggest an evolution by fractional crystallisation, or in some cases by mixing, with little interaction
with crustal material. The higher Sr isotopic ratios (87Sr/86Sr=0.70494–0.70587) of a few, low-volume, intermediate to acid rocks support differentiation by AFC at shallow depths for
some magma batches. New radiogenic isotope data on the Aeolian islands of Alicudi and Stromboli, as well as new data for lamproites
from central Italy, are also reported in order to discuss along-arc compositional variations and to evaluate the role of mantle
metasomatism. Geochemical and petrological data demonstrate that the younger K-rich mafic magmas from Vulcano cannot be related
to the older HKCA and SHO ones by intra-crustal evolutionary processes and point to a derivation from different mantle sources.
The data from Alicudi and Stromboli suggest that, even though interaction between magma and wall rocks of the Calabrian basement
during shallow level magma evolution was an important process locally, a similar interpretation can be extended to the entire
Aeolian arc.

Lycian ophiolites located in the Western Taurides, are cut at all structural levels by dolerite and gabbro dikes. The dolerite
dikes from this area are both pristine and metamorphosed. The non-metamorphosed dikes are observed both in the peridotites
and in the metamorphic sole rocks. Accordingly, the non-metamorphosed dikes cutting the metamorphic sole were generated after
cooling of the metamorphic sole rocks. The metamorphosed dolerite dikes are only observed in the peridotites. The physical
conditions and timing of the metamorphism for the metamorphosed dolerite dikes are similar to those of the metamorphic sole
rocks of the Lycian ophiolites suggesting that the metamorphosed dolerite dikes were metamorphosed together with the metamorphic
sole rocks. Therefore, the dike injections in the western part of the Tauride Belt Ophiolites occurred before and after the
generation of the metamorphic sole rocks. All metamorphosed and non-metamorphosed dikes are considered to have the same origin
and all of them are subduction-related as inferred from whole-rock geochemistry and lead isotopes. Lead isotope compositions
of whole rocks of both dike groups cluster in a narrow field in conventional Pb isotope diagrams (206Pb/204Pb = 18.40–18.64; 207Pb/204Pb = 15.56–15.58; 208Pb/204Pb = 38.23–38.56) indicating a derivation from an isotopically homogeneous source. On the 207Pb/204Pb versus 206Pb/204Pb diagram, isotope compositions of the dikes plot slightly below the orogen curve suggesting contributions from mantle reservoir
enriched by subducted oceanic lithosphere. Such a signature is typical of island arc magmatic rocks and supports the formation
of the investigated rocks in a subduction-related environment. 相似文献

The strata-bound Cu−Pb−Zn polymetallic sulfide deposits occur in metamorphic rocks of greenschist phase of the middle-upper
Proterozoic Langshan Group in central Inner Mongolia. δ34S values for sulfides range from −3.1‰ to +37.3‰, and an apparent difference is noticed between vein sulfides and those in
bedded rocks. For example, δ34S values for bedded pyrite range from +10.6‰ to +20.0‰, while those for vein pyrite vary from −3.1‰ to +14.1‰. δ34S of bedded pyrrhotite is in the range +7.9‰–+23.5‰ in comparison with +6.5‰–+17.1‰ for vein pyrrhotite. The wide scatter
of δ34S and the enrichment of heavier sulfur indicate that sulfur may have been derived from H2S as a result of bacterial reduction of sulfates in the sea water. Sulfur isotopic composition also differs from deposit to
deposit in this area because of the difference in environment in which they were formed. The mobilization of bedded sulfides
in response to regional metamorphism and magmatic intrusion led to the formation of vein sulfides.
δ18O and δ13C of ore-bearing rocks and wall rocks are within the range typical of ordinary marine facies, with the exception of lower
values for ore-bearing marble at Huogeqi probably due to diopsidization and tremalitization of carbonate rocks.
Pb isotopic composition is relatively stable and characterized by lower radio-genetic lead. The age of basement rocks was
calculated to be about 23.9 Ma and ore-forming age 7.8 Ma.207Pb/204Pb−206Pb/204Pb and208Pb/204Pb−206Pb/204Pb plots indicate that Pb may probably be derived from the lower crust or upper mantle.
It is believed that the deposits in this region are related to submarine volcanic exhalation superimposed by later regional
metamorphism and magmatic intrusion. 相似文献

Lead isotope analyses of galena from five ore deposits and six prospects in the Aysén region of southern Chile are reported.
Most of the deposits are either low sulfidation epithermal gold–silver veins or skarn and manto deposits; the majority are
either suspected to be, or dated as, Late Jurassic to mid-Cretaceous. Galena lead isotope data for most of the deposits from
southern Chile cluster near the “orogene” within a “plumbotectonic” model framework. Average values (206Pb/204Pb=18.53, 207Pb/204Pb=15.63, and 208Pb/204Pb=38.50) are near Jurassic to Cretaceous model ages on the “orogene” curve of Zartman and Doe (1981) and the second-stage
curve of Stacey and Kramers (1975) on a 206Pb/204Pb versus 207Pb/204Pb plot. These model ages are compatible with absolute ages as currently known. The elongate trends in the general cluster
indicate mainly an orogenic model fit, suggesting variable mixing of lead from different sources, mainly model upper crust
and lesser model mantle and lower crust reservoirs. Galena lead associated with one deposit (El Faldeo) is relatively radiogenic,
and lies near a Jurassic age on the “upper crustal” curve of Zartman and Doe (1981), which is compatible with the Ar/Ar age
of the deposit. Galena lead isotope clusters define three main groups of deposits. These three groups appear to be related
to three mineralizing events, dated by K–Ar and Ar/Ar, in the Late Jurassic (group 3), and in the Early and mid-Cretaceous
(groups 1 and 2 respectively). Averages for group 1, the northern group including El Toqui and Katerfeld, are 206Pb/204Pb=18.51, 207Pb/204Pb=15.62, 208Pb/204Pb=38.48. Averages for group 2, the southern group with Fachinal and Mina Silva, are 206Pb/204Pb = 18.56, 207Pb/204Pb=15.63, 208Pb/204Pb=38.52. Averages for group 3, the southernmost group with the El Faldeo, Lago Chacabuco and Lago Cochrane prospects, are
206Pb/204Pb=18.83, 207Pb/204Pb=15.65, 208Pb/204Pb=38.63. The Cretaceous deposits (groups 1 and 2) contain orogene-type lead that becomes increasingly radiogenic southward.
Lead from the Late Jurassic deposits (group 3) appears to reflect mixing of orogene lead with highly radiogenic lead. The
observed linear array of lead in group 3 probably reflects mixing of orogene lead with highly radiogenic lead, which was likely
extracted by selective leaching of mineralizing hydrothermal solutions from the metamorphic basement.

Re-evaluation of the petrogenesis of the Proterozoic Jabiluka unconformity-related uranium deposit, Northern Territory, Australia 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Paul A. Polito T. Kurt Kyser David Thomas Jim Marlatt Garth Drever 《Mineralium Deposita》2005,40(3):257-288
The world class Jabiluka unconformity-related uranium deposit in the Alligator Rivers Uranium Field, Australia, contains >163,000 tons
of contained U3O8. Mineralization is hosted by shallow-to-steeply dipping basement rocks comprising graphitic units of chlorite–biotite–muscovite
schist. These rocks are overlain by flat-lying coarse-grained sandstones belonging to the Kombolgie Subgroup. The deposit
was discovered in 1971, but has never been mined. The construction of an 1,150 m decline into the upper eastern sector of
the Jabiluka II deposit combined with closely spaced underground drilling in 1998 and 1999 allowed mapping and sampling from
underground for the first time. Structural mapping, drill core logging and petrographic studies on polished thin sections
established a detailed paragenesis that provided the framework for subsequent electron microprobe and X-ray diffraction, fluid
inclusion, and O–H, U–Pb and 40Ar/39Ar isotope analysis. Uranium mineralization is structurally controlled within semi-brittle shears that are sub-conformable
to the basement stratigraphy, and breccias that are developed within the hinge zone of fault-related folds adjacent to the
shears. Uraninite is intimately associated with chlorite, sericite, hematite ± quartz. Electron microprobe and X-ray diffraction
analysis of syn-ore illite and chlorite indicates a mineralization temperature of 200°C. Pre- and syn-ore minerals extracted
from the Kombolgie Subgroup overlying the deposit and syn-ore alteration minerals in the Cahill Formation have δ18Ofluid and δD
fluid values of 4.0±3.7 and −27±17‰, respectively. These values are indistinguishable from illite separates extracted from diagenetic
aquifers in the Kombolgie Subgroup up to 70 km to the south and east of the deposit and believed to be the source of the uraniferous
fluid. New fluid inclusion microthermometry data reveal that the mineralising brine was saline, but not saturated. U–Pb and
207Pb/206Pb ratios of uraninite by laser-ablation ICP-MS suggest that massive uraninite first precipitated at ca. 1,680 Ma, which is
coincident with the timing of brine migration out from the Kombolgie Subgroup as indicated by 40Ar/39Ar ages of 1,683±11 Ma from sandstone-hosted illite. Unmineralized breccias cemeted by chlorite, quartz and sericite cross-cut
the mineralized breccias and are in turn cut by straight-sided, high-angle veins of drusy quartz, sulphide and dolomite. U–Pb
and 207Pb/206Pb ratios combined with fluid inclusion and stable isotope data indicate that these post-ore minerals formed when mixing between
two fluids occurred sometime between ca. 1,450 and 550 Ma. Distinct 207Pb/206Pb age populations occur at ca. 1,302±37, 1,191±27 and 802±57 Ma, which respectively correlate with the intrusion of the Maningkorrirr/Mudginberri
phonolitic dykes and the Derim Derim Dolerite between 1,370 and 1,316 Ma, the amalgamation of Australia and Laurentia during
the Grenville Orogen at ca. 1,140 Ma, and the break-up of Rodinia between 1,000 and 750 Ma. 相似文献

Recent advances in U–Pb geochronology allow unprecedented levels of precision in the determination of geological ages. However, increased precision has also illuminated the importance of understanding subtle sources of open-system behavior such as Pb-loss, inheritance, intermediate daughter product disequilibria, and the accuracy of the model assumptions for initial Pb. Deconvolution of these effects allows a much richer understanding of the power and limitations of U–Pb geochronology and thermochronology. In this study, we report high-precision ID-TIMS U–Pb data from zircon, baddelleyite, titanite and apatite from the McClure Mountain syenite, from which the 40Ar/39Ar hornblende standard MMhb is derived. We find that excess 206Pb in zircon due to inclusions of high-Th minerals and elevated Th/U in titanite and apatite jeopardize the utility of the 238U–206Pb system in this rock. Strongly air-abraded zircons give dates that are younger than chemical-abraded zircons, which yield a statistically robust 207Pb/235U date of 523.98±0.12 Ma that is interpreted as the crystallization age. We explore the best method of Pbc correction in titanite and apatite by analyzing the U–Pb isotopes of K-feldspar and using 2-D and 3-D regression methods—the latter of which yields the best results in each case. However, the calculated compositions of Pbc for titanite, apatite and K-feldspar are different, implying that using a single Pbc correction for multiple U–Pb thermochronometers may be inaccurate. The U–Pb thermochronological results are used to predict a closure time for Ar in hornblende of 522.98±1.00 Ma. Widely cited K–Ar and 40Ar/39Ar dates overlap with the U–Pb date, and relatively large errors make it impossible to verify whether U–Pb dates are systematically ≤1% older than K–Ar and 40Ar/39Ar dates. 相似文献

Ore lead and sulphur isotope pattern from the low-temperature veins of the Catalonian Coastal Ranges (NE Spain) 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The lead isotopic composition of galenas from low-temperature veins of the Catalonian Coastal Ranges (NE Spain) displays
a small but distinct range of values: 18.318 ≤206Pb/204Pb ≤ 18.678; 15.678 ≤207Pb/204Pb ≤ 15.767 and 38.534 ≤ 208Pb/204Pb ≤ 39.189. The data define a linear trend in the 208Pb/204Pb versus 206Pb/204Pb diagram that can be interpreted in terms of mixing of lead from different reservoirs. The lead appears to be derived from
a solution that preferentially leached granites of Late-Hercynian age. Sulphur isotopic compositions of the galenas range
from −8.5 to + 7.3‰ but variations in a single deposit are small (1–2‰), pointing to different sources of sulphur. In a δ34S versus 206Pb/204Pb plot no clear correlation trends appear. Lead isotope data from deposits of similar characteristics situated within the
Hercynian orogenic belt as the Linares-La Carolina district (S Spain) and the Inglesiente-Sulcis area (Sardinia) show slight
differences indicating a source area of similar lead isotopic composition. In the CCR and Linares-La Carolina districts,
the main source of lead is related to the Hercynian granites of each area, although small contributions from metasediments
cannot be ruled out. The contribution of lead from metasedimentary rocks is particularly seen in the Sardinian (Hercynian
vein-type) ores.

The Canary Island primitive basaltic magmas are thought to be derived from an HIMU-type upwelling mantle containing isotopically
depleted (NMORB)-type component having interacted with an enriched (EM)-type component, the origin of which is still a subject
of debate. We studied the relationships between Ni, Mn and Ca concentrations in olivine phenocrysts (85.6–90.0 mol.% Fo, 1,722–3,915 ppm
Ni, 1,085–1,552 ppm Mn, 1,222–3,002 ppm Ca) from the most primitive subaerial and ODP Leg 157 high-silica (picritic to olivine
basaltic) lavas with their bulk rock Sr–Nd–Pb isotope compositions (87Sr/86Sr = 0.70315–0.70331, 143Nd/144Nd = 0.51288–0.51292, 206Pb/204Pb = 19.55–19.93, 207Pb/204Pb = 15.60–15.63, 208Pb/204Pb = 39.31–39.69). Our data point toward the presence of both a peridotitic and a pyroxenitic component in the magma source.
Using the model (Sobolev et al. in: Science 316:412–417, 2007) in which the reaction of Si-rich melts originated during partial
melting of eclogite (a high pressure product of subducted oceanic crust) with ambient peridotitic mantle forms olivine-free
reaction pyroxenite, we obtain an end member composition for peridotite with 87Sr/86Sr = 0.70337, 143Nd/144Nd = 0.51291, 206Pb/204Pb = 19.36, 207Pb/204Pb = 15.61 and 208Pb/204Pb = 39.07 (EM-type end member), and pyroxenite with 87Sr/86Sr = 0.70309, 143Nd/144Nd = 0.51289, 206Pb/204Pb = 20.03, 207Pb/204Pb = 15.62 and 208Pb/204Pb = 39.84 (HIMU-type end member). Mixing of melts from these end members in proportions ranging from 70% peridotite and 30%
pyroxenite to 28% peridotite and 72% pyroxenite derived melt fractions can generate the compositions of the most primitive
Gran Canaria shield stage lavas. Combining our results with those from the low-silica rocks from the western Canary Islands
(Gurenko et al. EPSL 277:514–524, 2009), at least four distinct components are required. We propose that they are (1) HIMU-type
pyroxenitic component (representing recycled ocean crust of intermediate age) from the plume center, (2) HIMU-type peridotitic
component (ancient recycled ocean crust stirred into the ambient mantle) from the plume margin, (3) depleted, MORB-type pyroxenitic
component (young recycled oceanic crust) in the upper mantle entrained by the plume, and (4) EM-type peridotitic component
from the asthenosphere or lithosphere above the plume center. 相似文献

Zircon ages and Nd isotopic and chemical compositions of orthogneisses from the Black Forest, Germany: evidence for a Cambrian magmatic arc 总被引:17,自引:0,他引:17
Single zircon U–Pb dating combined with 207Pb/206Pb ages obtained by the evaporation method constrains the emplacement of tonalitic, trondhjemitic, and granodioritic orthogneisses
of the Moldanubian zone in the Black Forest between 500 and 510 Ma. Two detrital zircon populations of 1.9 and 1.6 Ga indicate
Early-Middle Proterozoic material in the former setting of the basement. The initial eNd values range from –0.1 to –3.4 and mean crustal residence ages of 1.0–1.4 Ga are consistent with involvement of Early-Middle
Proterozoic crust, and a subordinate juvenile component probably originating from subduction-related melting of the mantle.
The orthogneisses have fractionated REE patterns and slightly higher K2O/Na2O ratios than typical low-K tonalite–trondhjemite–granite suites. The chemical data are interpreted as evidence for melting
of amphibolite and contributions from evolved crust. The emplacement of the orthogneisses was superceded by a high-temperature
metamorphic event at ∼480 Ma which we interpret as a result of lithospheric thinning in a marginal basin behind a Cambrian
magmatic arc.

From basalt to dacite: origin and evolution of the calc-alkaline series of Salina, Aeolian Arc, Italy 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
The island of Salina comprises one of the most distinct calc-alkaline series of the Aeolian arc (Italy), in which calc-alkaline,
high-K calc-alkaline, shoshonitic and leucite-shoshonitic magma series are developed. Detailed petrological, geochemical and
isotopic (Sr, Nd, Pb, O) data are reported for a stratigraphically well-established sequence of lavas and pyroclastic rocks
from the Middle Pleistocene volcanic cycle (430–127 ka) of Salina, which is characterized by an early period of basaltic volcanism
(Corvo; Capo; Rivi; Fossa delle Felci, group 1) and a sequence of basaltic andesites, and andesites and dacites in the final
stages of activity (Fossa delle Felci, groups 2–8). Major and trace element compositional trends, rare earth element (REE)
abundances and mineralogy reveal the importance of crystal fractionation of plagioclase + clinopyroxene + olivine/ orthopyroxene ± titanomagnetite ± amphibole ± apatite
in generating the more evolved magma types from parental basaltic magmas, and plagioclase accumulation in producing the high
Al2O3 contents of some of the more evolved basalts. Sr isotope ratios range from 0.70410 to 0.70463 throughout the suite and show
a well-defined negative correlation with 143Nd/144Nd (0.51275–0.51279). Pb isotope compositions are distinctly radiogenic with relatively large variations in 206Pb/204Pb (19.30–19.66), fairly constant 207Pb/204Pb (15.68–15.76) and minor variations in 208Pb/204Pb ratios (39.15–39.51). Whole-rock δ18O values range from +6.4 to +8.5‰ and correlate positively with Sr isotope ratios. Overall, the isotopic variations are correlated
with the degree of differentiation of the rocks, indicating that only small degrees of crustal assimilation are overprinting
the dominant evolution by crystal–liquid fractionation (AFC-type processes). The radiogenic and oxygen isotope composition
of the Salina basalts suggests derivation from primary magmas from a depleted mantle source contaminated by slab-derived fluids
and subducted sediments with an isotopic signature of typical upper continental crust. These magmas then evolved further to
andesitic and dacitic compositions through the prevailing process of low-pressure fractional crystallization in a shallow
magma reservoir, accompanied by minor assimilation of crustal lithologies similar to those of the Calabrian lower crust.

The Barite Hill gold deposit, at the southwestern end of the Carolina slate belt in the southeastern United States, is one
of four gold deposits in the region that have a combined yield of 110 metric tons of gold over the past 10 years. At Barite
Hill, production has dominantly come from oxidized ores. Sulfur isotope data from hypogene portions of the Barite Hill gold
deposit vary systematically with pyrite–barite associations and provide insights into both the pre-metamorphic Late Proterozoic
hydrothermal and the Paleozoic regional metamorphic histories of the deposit. The δ34S values of massive barite cluster tightly between 25.0 and 28.0‰, which closely match the published values for Late Proterozoic
seawater and thus support a seafloor hydrothermal origin. The δ34S values of massive sulfide range from 1.0 to 5.3‰ and fall within the range of values observed for modern and ancient seafloor
hydrothermal sulfide deposits. In contrast, δ34S values for finer-grained, intergrown pyrite (5.1–6.8‰) and barite (21.0–23.9‰) are higher and lower than their massive counterparts,
respectively. Calculated sulfur isotope temperatures for the latter barite–pyrite pairs (Δ=15.9–17.1‰) range from 332–355 °C
and probably reflect post-depositional equilibration at greenschist-facies regional metamorphic conditions. Thus, pyrite and
barite occurring separately from one another provide pre-metamorphic information about the hydrothermal origin of the deposit,
whereas pyrite and barite occurring together equilibrated to record the metamorphic conditions. Preliminary fluid inclusion
data from sphalerite are consistent with a modified seawater source for the mineralizing fluids, but data from quartz and
barite may reflect later metamorphic and (or) more recent meteoric water input. Lead isotope values from pyrites range for
206Pb/204Pb from 18.005–18.294, for 207Pb/204Pb from 15.567–15.645, and for 208Pb/204Pb from 37.555–38.015. The data indicate derivation of the ore leads from the country rocks, which themselves show evidence
for contributions from relatively unradiogenic, mantle-like lead, and more evolved or crustal lead. Geological relationships,
and stable and radiogenic isotopic data, suggest that the Barite Hill gold deposit formed on the Late Proterozoic seafloor
through exhalative hydrothermal processes similar to those that were responsible for the massive sulfide deposits of the Kuroko
district, Japan. On the basis of similarities with other gold-rich massive sulfide deposits and modern seafloor hydrothermal
systems, the gold at Barite Hill was probably introduced as an integral part of the formation of the massive sulfide deposit.

40 Ar/39Ar–mica and 207Pb/206Pb–zircon dates are presented and combined with existing P–T data and the sedimentary record. These data indicate that the
RCC was faulted into three segments which underwent different exhumation histories during the Late Carboniferous/Early Permian.
The eastern segment shows 40Ar/39Ar–biotite data of336 ±4 and 323±3 Ma. Furthermore, it is intruded by the Thuringian Hauptgranite dated at 337±4 Ma by the
207Pb/206Pb single zircon method. At approximately 300 Ma rocks of the eastern segment were finally exposed and, subsequently, subsided
as part of the Oberhof pull-apart basin, filled by Late Carboniferous/Early Permian molasse sediments and volcanic rocks (296–285 Ma;
Goll 1996). A similar Late Carboniferous evolution is inferred for the western segment, since it is also overlain by Upper
Carboniferous volcanic rocks. In contrast to the eastern and western segments, distinctly younger intrusion and cooling ages
were recorded for the central segment of the RCC (40Ar/39Ar muscovite: 311±3 Ma; 40Ar/39Ar biotite: 293–288±3 Ma) that was intruded by the Trusetal Granite, the Ruhla Granite and Brotterode Diorite (207Pb/206Pb single zircon: 298±2, 295±3, 289±4 Ma, respectively). These young data are unique in the MGCR and testify that plutonic
activity and cooling of basement rocks took place simultaneously with basin formation and volcanism in the eastern and western
segments. Overlying Upper Permian (Zechstein) and Triassic sediments indicate final exposure of the central segment by approximately
260 Ma, as a part of the Ruhla-Schleusingen Horst. Combination of these results with P–T data from the contact aureole of
the Trusetal granite indicate that the central segment was unroofed by at least 8.5 km during the Late Carboniferous. The
Late Carboniferous/Early Permian horst-basin formation, documented in the RCC, is due to dextral transtensional movements
along the NW-trending Franconian fault system. It may have been enhanced by mantle upwelling widespread in Central Europe
during the Early Permian that also caused intensive magmatism in the Thuringian Forest region.

Neodymium and lead isotope and elemental data are presented for the Sebago batholith (293±2 Ma), the largest exposed granite
in New England. The batholith is lithologically homogeneous, yet internally heterogeneous with respect to rare earth elements
(REE) and Nd isotopic composition. Two-mica granites in the southern/central portion of the batholith (group 1) are characterized
by REE patterns with uniform shapes [CeN/YbN (chondrite normalized) = 9.4–19 and Eu/Eu* (Eu anomaly) = 0.27–0.42] and ɛ
Nd(t) = −3.1 to −2.1. Peripheral two-mica granites (group 2), spatially associated with stromatic and schlieric migmatites,
have a wider range of total REE contents and patterns with variable shapes (CeN/YbN = 6.1–67, Eu/Eu* = 0.20–0.46) and ɛ
Nd(t) = −5.6 to −2.8. The heterogeneous REE character of the group 2 granites records the effects of magmatic differentiation
that involved monazite. Coarse-grained leucogranites and aplites have kinked REE patterns and low total REE, but have Nd isotope
systematics similar to group 2 granites with ɛ
Nd(t) = −5.5 to −4.7. Rare biotite granites have steep REE patterns (CeN/YbN = 51–61, Eu/Eu* = 0.32–0.84) and ɛ
Nd(t) = −4.6 to −3.8. The two-mica granites have a restricted range in initial Pb isotopic composition (206Pb/204Pb = 18.41–18.75; 207Pb/204Pb = 15.60–15.68; 208Pb/204Pb = 38.21–38.55), requiring and old, high U/Pb (but not Th/U) source component. The Nd isotope data are consistent with magma
derivation from two sources: Avalon-like crust (ɛ
Nd>−3), and Central Maine Belt metasedimentary rocks (ɛ
Nd<−4), without material input from the mantle. The variations in isotope systematics and REE patterns are inconsistent with
models of disequilibrium melting which involved monazite.
