独居石是一种常用的地质年代计,但其内部结构复杂,常具有不同成分分区,只有足够小的激光束斑才能获得地质意义明确的U-Th-Pb年龄。本文在优化ICP-MS参数、匹配两路载气流量(Ar和He)的基础上,设计了两组激光剥蚀条件实验,获得适用于小束斑独居石U-Th-Pb定年的激光剥蚀参数(16μm,3 J/cm~2,5 Hz)和(10μm,3 J/cm2,4 Hz)。在此条件下分别测定标准样品44069和未知样品15SLS-01,获得标准样品44069的~(208)Pb/~(232)Th和~(206)Pb/~(238)U值的单点测试精度小于3%,其U-Th-Pb年龄结果与前人测得SHRIMP U-Pb年龄和TIMS U-Pb年龄一致;未知样品15SLS-01的208Pb/232Th值的单点测试精度小于3%,~(206)Pb/~(238)U值的单点测试精度介于3%~8%,多点测试~(206)Pb-~(238)U和~(208)Pb-~(232)Th的加权平均年龄在误差范围内一致,其中208Pb-232Th年龄更具代表性。本研究表明在16μm和10μm激光束斑下,利用LA-ICP-MS能够实现独居石U-Th-Pb年龄的测定,极大地提高了独居石此种微区定年方法的空间分辨率。  相似文献

LA-ICP-MS独居石U-Th-Pb测年方法研究   总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1  
相比LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb测年,独居石在一些年轻地质体或流体作用下的矿物定年中更具优势,具有很好的应用前景。然而,大多数独居石Th含量较高(可达7%),包裹体较多,另外随着独居石定年标样不断消耗,存量越来越少,也限制了独居石U-Th-Pb同位素测年的发展与应用。前人利用LA-ICP-MS探究合适的独居石U-Th-Pb测年实验条件,主要是改变激光器的参数,而未对ICP-MS的参数进行系统研究。本文通过改变激光器参数(束斑直径和激光频率)和ICP-MS参数(~(232)Th驻留时间),分别在束斑直径为24μm、16μm和10μm,激光频率为3Hz、4Hz和5Hz,~(232)Th驻留时间为10ms、6ms、3ms和1ms的条件下进行U-Th-Pb测年。最后以独居石RW-1为标样,对独居石样品Bananeira进行校正,期望得到独居石U-Th-Pb测年的最佳条件。结果表明:束斑直径为16μm,~(232)Th驻留时间为3ms或1ms,能量密度为4J/cm~2,激光频率为5Hz,载气He流速为0.35L/min,载气Ar流速为0.95L/min的实验条件下适合独居石测年,这两种条件下Bananeira的~(207)Pb/~(235)U加权平均年龄分别为510.7±8.6Ma(MSWD=0.87)、513.8±5.7Ma(MSWD=0.38,推荐值507.7±1.3Ma),误差在0.59%和1.20%左右;~(208)Pb/~(232)Th加权平均年龄分别为496.9±8.6Ma(MSWD=0.596)、499.8±5.6Ma(MSWD=0.37,推荐值497.6±1.6Ma),误差在0.14%和0.44%左右。并利用此条件对黄山花岗岩(HS-1)进行独居石U-Th-Pb测年,其~(207)Pb/~(235)U加权平均值在128.3±2.4Ma(MSWD=0.73),与本次测定该岩体的锆石年龄数据(127.0±2.1Ma, MSWD=0.93)在误差范围内一致,验证了本实验建立的独居石U-Th-Pb定年方法可靠。  相似文献

本文报道了安徽洪镇地区董岭群片麻岩中高精度的独居石SIMS U-Th-Pb定年结果,以~(207)Pb含量为基准对普通Pb进行校正后得到~(206)Pb/~(238)U的加权平均年龄为128.4±0.7 Ma(MSWD=1.6),~(208)Pb/~(232)Th年龄的加权平均值为128.6±0.4 Ma(MSWD=1.4)。作者认为独居石的SIMS U-Th-Pb年龄(128.4±0.7 Ma)代表了董岭群片麻岩的前进变质年龄。综合区域地质资料,提出董岭群片麻岩为新元古代沉积物在中生代经岩浆热动力接触变质的产物。这一发现不仅否定了前人提出的董岭群为前寒武纪区域变质地体的观点,而且否定了这一地区的"洪镇变质核杂岩",对进一步研究中国东部零星出露的中高级片麻岩的大地构造属性和构造演化具有借鉴意义。  相似文献

使用交换树脂TRU Spec同时分离REE、U、Th、Pb及其他的元素,然后用阴离子交换树脂纯化Pb并用萃淋树脂分离纯化Sm和Nd,Sm、Nd、U和Pb的定量测定借助同位素稀释法,Th的定量测定则用ICP-MS分析,Nd和Pb同位素组成分析用质谱法(TIMS),从而实现独居石U-Th-Pb-Sm-Nd联合定年。用这种方法可以在同一样品上,同时得到U-Th-Pb和Sm-Nd同位素年龄记录。白云鄂博矿床白云石型稀土矿石中12个单颗粒独居石的U-Th-Pb-Sm-Nd同位素联合定年给出Sm-Nd等时线年龄为1008±320 Ma,其中8个独居石的Th-Pb等时线年龄为1231±200 Ma,此二年龄在误差范围内相似。在同一组独居石样品上得到一致的Th-Pb与Sm-Nd的中元古年龄,表明白云鄂博在中元古代的稀土成矿作用是可能的。本文独居石的Th-Pb 和Sm-Nd年龄与以前报道的独居石加里东期Th-Pb年龄差别很大,此问题尚需进一步研究。  相似文献

海南石碌铁矿独居石的成因类型、化学定年及地质意义   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
海南石碌铁矿是我国最大的富赤铁矿矿床,同时伴生有钴、铜等多金属矿产。轴向北西-南东向的复式向斜是石碌铁、钴铜矿体的主要控矿构造,富铁矿和钴铜矿的形成与该褶皱变形及伴随的韧性剪切和高温塑性流动有着密切的关系。为获得该构造变形的年代学信息和证实构造变形对成矿物质的富集影响,本文开展了石碌铁矿近矿围岩—石碌群第六层透辉石透闪石岩中独居石的显微结构观察和电子探针化学Th-U-Pb定年(CHIME法)。显微结构观察发现独居石往往沿岩石面理定向分布,且具典型的球冠结构,表现为围绕独居石核部向外依次出现磷灰石、褐帘石、绿帘石同心环。电子探针分析结果表明这些独居石为Ce-La-Nd磷酸盐[(Ce,La,Nd,Th)PO4],具富钍独居石端元组分。ThO 2含量范围(0.78%~4.61%)、稀土特征以及独居石的产出特征均暗示了其为同构造变质成因。电子探针CHIME化学定年结果表明独居石的年龄变化范围为614~397Ma,并具有两个峰值年龄:即主峰值ca.455Ma和次峰值ca.564Ma。低的ThO 2(0.78%~1.65%),PbO(0.02%~0.04%)和CaO(0.50%~0.97%)含量,以及高的Th/U比值(23.06~53.11)暗示了构成ca.564Ma的独居石是早期剪切变形事件的产物。而在随后剪切变形过程中独居石在低角闪岩相变质条件下以及碱性变质流体诱导下发生了溶解-再沉淀,形成了具ca.455Ma年龄的补丁状成分区。该过程引起了U-Pb体系的局部重置,形成的独居石具有变化较大的ThO 2(0.92%~4.61%)、PbO(0.01%~0.08%)和CaO(0.28%~1.58%)含量范围以及Th/U值(24.83~52.86)。在剪切变形之后,早期变质成因的独居石在绿片岩相退变质作用过程中及富Ca、Fe、Si、Al流体参与的条件下,经不平衡反应形成了磷灰石-褐帘石-绿帘石球冠物,反应机制以独居石和球冠矿物间的元素扩散动力学为主。该反应暗示了REE、Y、Th等元素发生了迁移,并可能引起边部独居石的部分Pb丢失。结合华南的构造演化,年龄谱主峰值455Ma代表了与华南加里东造山运动有关的区域变质和动力变质作用事件年龄,是加里东运动在海南岛的响应;次峰值年龄564Ma对应着冈瓦纳泛非事件,暗示了华南在晚新元古代-早古生代与冈瓦纳大陆具有亲缘性,华南加里东运动引起陆内造山过程可能与冈瓦纳大陆的聚合碰撞事件有关。因此,晚新元古代-早古生代造山事件对海南岛构造演化历史具重要影响。此外,该构造运动使石碌群发生褶皱变形,伴随产生的变质流体使铁、钴铜成矿元素进一步活化和富集,对石碌铁、钴铜矿的富集有着重要影响。  相似文献

独居石[(LREE, Th)PO4]在各类地质样品中广泛存在且具有Th含量高和普通铅低的成分特征,可作为U(Th)-Pb定年的合适矿物。本文利用中国地质大学(北京)元素地球化学实验室的激光等离子体质谱仪(LA-ICP-MS),建立了以独居石(44069)为外标的LA-ICP-MS独居石U(Th)-Pb年龄测定方法,通过对捷克南部Bohemian Massif麻粒岩地块长英质伟晶岩(脉)中独居石的对比测定,讨论了不同检测条件(积分时间、激光剥蚀取样方式(点剥蚀和线扫描)、激光束斑直径(25μm和12μm)、数据处理软件参数)对独居石U-Th-Pb同位素体系质量分馏的影响。同位素比值和年龄结果对比表明,25μm点垂直取样和25μm线扫描取样的分析精度最优;Th-Pb同位素体系的质量分馏略高于U-Pb同位素体系,但误差明显小于锆石,提出独居石的208Pb/232Th年龄与206Pb/238U年龄结果误差范围一致,可作为含高U锆石地质体定年的新途径。对东昆仑清水泉麻粒岩带变质岩中独居石...  相似文献

小秦岭地区是我国最重要的金矿产区之一, 目前对该区金矿床成矿作用存在两种不同的观点, 即与秦岭造山带造山作用有关的早中生代成矿和与中国东部构造体制大转折有关的晚中生代成矿.在矿床地质研究的基础上, 利用激光剥蚀ICP-MS方法对小秦岭矿集区北矿带秦南金矿床的热液独居石进行了U-Th-Pb定年, 获得了高精度的年龄数据, 为北矿带金矿床成矿时代和成矿构造背景提供了新的制约.岩相学研究表明, 所研究的独居石具有完好的晶形, 与载金矿物黄铁矿和石英的结构关系表明它们近于同时形成.13个独居石颗粒的U-Th-Pb同位素组成在206Pb/238U-207Pb/235U和206Pb/238U-208Pb/232Th图解上均位于谐和线上或其附近, 其206Pb/238U和208Pb/233Th加权平均年龄分别为120.9±0.9 Ma(MSWD=1.0)和122.6±1.9 Ma(MSWD=2.6), 在误差范围内完全一致.本次定年结果与小秦岭南矿带众多典型金矿床的Re-Os年龄和40Ar/39Ar年龄一致, 表明独居石的U-Th-Pb同位素体系自矿物形成后一直处于封闭体系, 其U-Pb和U-Th-Pb年龄可以解释为秦南金矿床的成矿时代, 从而表明秦南金矿床形成于燕山期.对已有可靠年龄数据的统计分析表明, 小秦岭地区绝大多数金矿床形成于早白垩世, 证明该区金成矿作用集中发生于晚中生代, 可能与华北克拉通岩石圈减薄作用有关.   相似文献

Chemical Th–U–total Pb (CHIME) dating of monazite by electron probe microanalyzer (EPMA) and proton microprobe (PIXE) was carried out on felsic granulites from Stary Gierałtów, Poland, which represent part of the Orlica-Śnieżnik Dome in the NE Bohemian Massif. Analyzed monazite is characterized by mosaic zoning rather than simple core-to-rim growth, and strontium contents of up to 750ppm. An isochron age of 347 ± 13Ma represents timing of amphibolite-facies metamorphism, in agreement with previously published estimates.  相似文献

After a decade of studies and development, it is now accepted that reliable U–Th–total Pb isochron ages can be calculated for monazite using an electron microprobe at μm scale, either directly on thin sections or on separated grains mounted in polished section. The potential for determining U–Th–Pb chemical ages from other U- and Th-enriched phases has been investigated compared to chemical monazite-dating results for which individual spot-age precisions of 20 to 100 Ma can be achieved from individual spot analyses. Using isochron plots for monazite, the age homogeneity of a given population of data can be assessed and, depending upon the number of analyses (n  50), a precision of 5 to 10 Ma can be obtained. The U content in xenotime widely varies from less than 0.1 wt.% up to 3 wt.%, but Th rarely exceeds 1 wt.%. As a consequence, the amount of radiogenic Pb produced during a given period remains significantly lower for xenotime than for monazite, leading to a lower precision (± 20 Ma) on the mean ages. Xenotime, however, appears to remain as a closed system, but common Pb must be carefully checked. Furthermore, the electron-microprobe technique (EPMA) allows controlling any age discrepancy on xenotime grains as small as 10–20 μm that cannot be dated by other isotopic methods. Such xenotime ages can be useful when studying the monazite–xenotime equilibrium. The electron microprobe is not the most reliable method for dating zircon since U and Th concentrations are generally low and common Pb is not negligible. Nevertheless, the spatial resolution of EPMA coupled with isotope methods allows conclusive in situ studies about radiogenic Pb mobility and metamictization. Thorite does not seem suitable for dating with either isotope methods or EPMA because of continuous radiogenic Pb loss. Conversely, the oxide phases, thorianite and baddeleyite are robust minerals with closed systems. They are rather rare and seem to incorporate negligible common Pb, making EPMA a method of choice for dating them. For thorianite, the precision on the mean age can be similar as that obtained for monazite, or even better, while the precision for baddeleyite cannot be significantly better than 20 to 50 Ma due to the limited amount of U ( 0.1%) and the lack of Th.  相似文献

Although zircon is the most widely used geochronometer to determine the crystallisation ages of granites, it can be unreliable for low-temperature melts because they may not crystallise new zircon. For leucocratic granites U–Pb zircon dates, therefore, may reflect the ages of the source rocks rather than the igneous crystallisation age. In the Proterozoic Capricorn Orogen of Western Australia, leucocratic granites are associated with several pulses of intracontinental magmatism spanning ~800 million years. In several instances, SHRIMP U–Pb zircon dating of these leucocratic granites either yielded ages that were inconclusive (e.g., multiple concordant ages) or incompatible with other geochronological data. To overcome this we used SHRIMP U–Th–Pb monazite geochronology to obtain igneous crystallisation ages that are consistent with the geological and geochronological framework of the orogen. The U–Th–Pb monazite geochronology has resolved the time interval over which two granitic supersuites were emplaced; a Paleoproterozoic supersuite thought to span ~80 million years was emplaced in less than half that time (1688–1659 Ma) and a small Meso- to Neoproterozoic supersuite considered to have been intruded over ~70 million years was instead assembled over ~130 million years and outlasted associated regional metamorphism by ~100 million years. Both findings have consequences for the duration of associated orogenic events and any estimates for magma generation rates. The monazite geochronology has contributed to a more reliable tectonic history for a complex, long-lived orogen. Our results emphasise the benefit of monazite as a geochronometer for leucocratic granites derived by low-temperature crustal melting and are relevant to other orogens worldwide.  相似文献

EPMA U-Th-Pbtotal dating in U- and Th bearing minerals (e.g., monazite, zircon, and xenotime) is a low-cost and reliable technique used for retrieving age information from detrital, diagenetic and low to high-T metamorphic, as well as magmatic rocks. Although, the accuracy on measured ages obtained using EPMA is considered to be poor compared to isotopic ages, the superior spatial resolution, ability to integrate textural and age information by in-situ measurement, lack of sample damage and easier and cheaper data generation in EPMA make chemical dating a very valuable tool to decipher diverse petrological processes.This contribution presents an improved analytical protocol to obtain precise estimates of U, Th and Pb concentrations in xenotime. Results were tested on monazite standard (Moacyr pegmatite, Brazil; TIMS age: 487 ± 1 Ma) as the reference material. The proposed analytical protocol has been successfully applied to achieve an analytical uncertainty of less than 10% in U, Th and Pb measurements in xenotime. The protocol was further used to resolve polygenetic xenotime ages (ca. 1.82, 1.28 and 0.93 Ga) in metapelite samples from the Mangalwar Complex, Northwestern India. Monazites in the same samples were also analyzed and found to preserve the two younger ages (i.e., ca. 1.28 and 1.0 Ga). The obtained ages from the xenotime and monazite very well corroborate with the earlier published ages from the area validating the proposed analytical protocol.  相似文献

This paper outlines the CHIME (chemical Th–U-total Pb isochron method) dating method, which is based on precise electron microprobe analyses of Th, U and Pb in Th- and U-bearing accessory minerals such as monazite, xenotime, zircon and polycrase. The age-mapping technique that is applicable to young monazite and zircon is also described. CHIME dating consists of analyzing multiple spots within homogeneous age domains that show sufficient compositional variation, and then these data are used to construct a “pseudo-isochron” from which an age can be obtained via regression. This method, when coupled with discrimination of possibly concordant age data by chemical criteria such as the (Ca + Si)/(Th + U + Pb + S) ratio for monazite and Ca and S contents for zircon, has the potential advantage of significant precision, and the ability to work with minerals that have a significant initial common Pb component. This technique can identify two or more homogeneous domains that are separated by age gaps smaller than the error on individual spot age analysis. Many features that are insignificant in major element analysis can have major impact in the acquisition of trace element data. Critical factors include the roles of collimator slit, detector gas, background estimation, accelerating voltage, probe current, X-ray interferences and count rate in affecting the accuracy, and a way to apply the Th and U interference correction without pure Th- and U-oxides or synthesized pure ThSiO4. The age-mapping procedure for young monazite and zircon includes acquiring PbMα (or PbMβ) intensity of individual pixels with multiple spectrometers, correcting background with background maps computed from a measured background intensity by the intensity relationships determined in advance of the measurement, calibrating of intensity with standards and calculating of ages from the Th, U and Pb concentrations. This technique provides age maps that show differences in age domains on the order of 20 Ma with in monazite as young as 100 Ma. The effect of sample damage by irradiation of intense and prolonged probe measurement is also described.  相似文献

Monazite is extensively used to date crustal processes and is usually considered to be resistant to diffusive Pb loss. Nevertheless, fluid-assisted recrystallisation is known to be capable of resetting the monazite chronometer. This study focuses on chemical and isotopic disturbances in monazite grains from two microgranite intrusions in the French Central Massif (Charron and Montasset). Petrologic data and oxygen isotopes suggest that both intrusions have interacted with alkali-bearing hydrothermal-magmatic fluids. In the Charron intrusion, regardless of their textural location, monazite grains are sub-euhedral and cover a large domain of compositions. U–Pb chronometers yield a lower intercept age of 297 ± 4 Ma. An inherited component at 320 Ma is responsible for the scattering of the U–Th–Pb ages. The Montasset intrusion was later affected by an additional F-rich crustal fluid with crystallisation of Ca-REE-fluorocarbonates, fluorite, calcite and chloritisation. Pristine monazite is chemically homogeneous and displays 208Pb/232Th and 206Pb/238U concordant ages at 307 ± 2 Ma. By contrast, groundmass monazite shows dissolution-recrystallisation features associated with apatite and thorite precipitation (Th-silicate) and strong chemical reequilibration. 208Pb/232Th ages are disturbed and range between 270 and 690 Ma showing that the Th/Pb ratio is highly fractionated during the interaction with fluids. Apparent U–Pb ages are older due to common Pb incorporation yielding a lower intercept age at 312 ± 10 Ma, the age of the pristine monazite. These results show that F-rich fluids are responsible for Th mobility and incorporation of excess Pb, which thus strongly disturbed the U–Th–Pb chronometers in the monazite.  相似文献

电子探针测年方法应用于晶质铀矿的成因类型探讨   总被引:7,自引:4,他引:3  
电子探针Th-U-Pb测年因其高分辨率与高精度的优势,在独居石、锆石等定年矿物中得到了推广,但在Th、U、Pb含量高的晶质铀矿、沥青铀矿等矿物中则应用较少。本文在铁矿床变质岩绿泥石、阳起石黑云母蚀变岩首次发现U含量高的晶质铀矿,基于此,结合该铁矿床地区的地质背景,利用偏光显微镜与电子探针等分析测试手段,将镜下蚀变现象、年龄计算与其他相关元素分析相结合,重点对晶质铀矿的成矿年龄及成矿规律进行探讨。研究发现:通过镜下观察判断,晶质铀矿的成因类型与澳大利亚著名的变质型铀矿相似,均为古老的变质型,且周围的脉石矿物均为绿泥石,绿泥石皆由黑云母退变质而成,铀矿的赋存位置显示其与黑云母、绿泥石之间有紧密联系,其成矿年龄与黑云母、绿泥石形成年龄息息相关。继而根据电子探针数据计算成矿年龄,判断成矿期次,得出主要成矿期在(1654±17)Ma~(1805±17)Ma,为中元古代中期,且主要成矿期与热液蚀变作用黑云母化有关,后期活化富集时期在(657±17)Ma~(807±17)Ma,为新元古代南华纪时期,此阶段是热液侵入、绿泥石化广泛发育的时期;选取较大颗粒对晶质铀矿的环带年龄进行计算,从年龄分布上证实后期有强烈的流体活动的发生,且主要与绿泥石化相关。另外,对比变质型与沉积型铀矿中Y2O3与UO2含量发现,两者之间存在负相关关系,此关系对判断铀矿成因即是否为变质型或沉积型可能有指示意义,但缺乏大量的数据佐证,需进一步研究。  相似文献

CHIME (chemical Th–U-total Pb isochron method) monazite ages were determined for gneisses and granitoids from the eastern and western parts of the Ryoke belt separated by about 500 km. The monazite ages for the gneisses are concentrated between 102 and 98  Ma, and are interpreted as the time of monazite formation under lower amphibolite facies conditions. The peak metamorphism seems to be contemporaneous with the emplacement of the geologically oldest plutons that are dated at c . 95  Ma in both the eastern and western parts. In the eastern part plutonism continued from c . 95  Ma to c . 68  Ma at intervals of 2–10  Ma, whereas in the western part it ceased at c . 85  Ma. The CHIME monazite ages agree well with the relative age of granitoids derived from intrusive relationships of granitoids in both parts. These lines of evidence are incompatible with a current view that the plutonometamorphism in the Ryoke belt becomes younger towards the east. The CHIME monazite ages, coupled with available data on the depth at which the Ryoke metamorphism took place and the emplacement of individual plutons, show that the western part was eroded more rapidly (about 1.5  mm year−1) than the eastern part (about 0.8  mm year−1) over the time span from 91 to 85  Ma. The denudation rates agree well with those in active orogenic belts like the Alps and Himalayas.  相似文献
