A diverse range of crustal xenoliths is hosted in young alkalibasalt lavas and scoria deposits (erupted 35 ka) at thesummit of Huallai. Leucocratic xenoliths, including monzodiorites,diorites and syenogabbros, are distinctive among Hawaiian plutonicrocks in having alkali feldspar, apatite, zircon and biotite,and evolved mineral compositions (e.g. albitic feldspar, clinopyroxeneMg-number 6778). Fine-grained diorites and monzodioritesare plutonic equivalents of mugearite lavas, which are unknownat Huallai. These xenoliths appear to represent melt compositionsfalling along a liquid line of descent leading to trachyteamagma type which erupted from Huallai as a prodigious lava flowand scoria cone at 114 ka. Inferred fractionating assemblages,MELTS modeling, pyroxene geobarometry and whole-rock norms allpoint to formation of the parent rocks of the leucocratic xenolithsat 37 kbar pressure. This depth constraint on xenolithformation, coupled with a demonstrated affinity to hypersthene-normativebasalt and petrologic links between the xenoliths and the trachyte,suggests that the shift from shield to post-shield magmatismat Huallai was accompanied by significant deepening of the activemagma reservoir and a gradual transition from tholeiitic toalkalic magmas. Subsequent differentiation of transitional basaltsby fractional crystallization was apparently both extremeculminatingin >5·5 km3 of trachyteand rapid, at 2·75x 106 m3 magma crystallized/year.

Marbles and metapelites from the Reynolds Range Group (centralAustralia) were regionally metamorphosed at low pressure duringM2 at 1.6 Ga, M2 ranged in grade from greenschist to granulitefacies along the length of the Reynolds Range, and overprinted1.78 Ga granites and their contact aureoles in the ReynoldsRange Group metasediments. At all M2 grades the marbles andmetapelites have highly variable oxygen isotope ratios [marbles:18O(carb) 1420%; metapelites: 18O 614%). Similarly, 1.78 Ga granites have highly variable oxygen isotope ratios(18O 513%), with the lowest values occurring at thegranite margins. In all rock types, the lowest oxygen isotopevalues are consistent with the infiltration of channelled magmaticand/or meteoric fluids. The variable lowering of oxygen isotopevalues resulted from pre-M2 contact metamorphism and fluidrockinteraction around the 1.78 Ga granites. In contrast, mineralassemblages in the marbles define a trend of increasing XCO2with increasing grade from <0.05 (greenschist facies) to0.71.0 (granulite facies). This, together with the lackof regionally systematic resetting of oxygen isotope ratios,implies that there was little fluidrock interaction duringprograde regional metamorphism.

This study reports oxygen isotope ratios determined by laserfluorination of mineral separates (mainly plagioclase) frombasaltic andesitic to rhyolitic composition volcanic rocks eruptedfrom the Lassen Volcanic Center (LVC), northern California.Plagioclase separates from nearly all rocks have 18O values(6·1–8·4) higher than expected for productionof the magmas by partial melting of little evolved basalticlavas erupted in the arc front and back-arc regions of the southernmostCascades during the late Cenozoic. Most LVC magmas must thereforecontain high 18O crustal material. In this regard, the 18O valuesof the volcanic rocks show strong spatial patterns, particularlyfor young rhyodacitic rocks that best represent unmodified partialmelts of the continental crust. Rhyodacitic magmas erupted fromvents located within 3·5 km of the inferred center ofthe LVC have consistently lower 18O values (average 6·3± 0·1) at given SiO2 contents relative to rockserupted from distal vents (>7·0 km; average 7·1± 0.1). Further, magmas erupted from vents situated attransitional distances have intermediate values and span a largerrange (average 6·8 ± 0·2). Basaltic andesiticto andesitic composition rocks show similar spatial variations,although as a group the 18O values of these rocks are more variableand extend to higher values than the rhyodacitic rocks. Thesefeatures are interpreted to reflect assimilation of heterogeneouslower continental crust by mafic magmas, followed by mixingor mingling with silicic magmas formed by partial melting ofinitially high 18O continental crust (9·0) increasinglyhybridized by lower 18O (6·0) mantle-derived basalticmagmas toward the center of the system. Mixing calculationsusing estimated endmember source 18O values imply that LVC magmascontain on a molar oxygen basis approximately 42 to 4% isotopicallyheavy continental crust, with proportions declining in a broadlyregular fashion toward the center of the LVC. Conversely, the18O values of the rhyodacitic rocks suggest that the continentalcrust in the melt generation zones beneath the LVC has beensubstantially modified by intrusion of mantle-derived basalticmagmas, with the degree of hybridization ranging on a molaroxygen basis from approximately 60% at distances up to 12 kmfrom the center of the system to 97% directly beneath the focusregion. These results demonstrate on a relatively small scalethe strong influence that intrusion of mantle-derived maficmagmas can have on modifying the composition of pre-existingcontinental crust in regions of melt production. Given thisresult, similar, but larger-scale, regional trends in magmacompositions may reflect an analogous but more extensive processwherein the continental crust becomes progressively hybridizedbeneath frontal arc localities as a result of protracted intrusionof subduction-related basaltic magmas.

A suite of dolerite dykes from the Ahlmannryggen region of westernDronning Maud Land (Antarctica) forms part of the much moreextensive Karoo igneous province of southern Africa. The dykecompositions include both low- and high-Ti magma types, includingpicrites and ferropicrites. New 40Ar/39Ar age determinationsfor the Ahlmannryggen intrusions indicate two ages of emplacementat 178 and 190 Ma. Four geochemical groups of dykes have beenidentified in the Ahlmannryggen region based on analyses of60 dykes. The groups are defined on the basis of whole-rockTiO2 and Zr contents, and reinforced by rare earth element (REE),87Sr/86Sr and 143Nd/144Nd isotope data. Group 1 were intrudedat 190 Ma and have low TiO2 and Zr contents and a significantArchaean crustal component, but also evidence of hydrothermalalteration. Group 2 dykes were intruded at 178 Ma; they havelow to moderate TiO2 and Zr contents and are interpreted tobe the result of mixing of melts derived from an isotopicallydepleted source with small melt fractions of an enriched lithosphericmantle source. Group 3 dyke were intruded at 190 Ma and formthe most distinct magma group; these are largely picritic withsuperficially mid-ocean ridge basalt (MORB)-like chemistry (flatREE patterns, 87Sr/86Sri 0·7035, Ndi 9). However, theyhave very high TiO2 (4 wt %) and Zr (500 ppm) contents, whichis not consistent with melting of MORB-source mantle. The Group3 magmas are inferred to be derived by partial melting of astrongly depleted mantle source in the garnet stability field.This group includes several high MgFe dykes (ferropicrites),which are interpreted as high-temperature melts. Some Group3 dykes also show evidence of contamination by continental crust.Group 4 dykes are low-K picrites intruded at 178 Ma; they havevery high TiO2Zr contents and are the most enriched magmagroup of the KarooAntarctic province, with ocean-islandbasalt (OIB)-like chemistry. Dykes of Group 1 and Group 3 aresub-parallel (ENEWSW) and both groups were emplaced at190 Ma in response to the same regional stress field, whichhad changed by 178 Ma, when Group 2 and Group 4 dykes were intrudedalong a dominantly NNESSW strike.

A stable isotope study of 168 plutonic igneous rock and fivewater samples from Transbaikalia, East Asia, has been made,including 318 whole-rock and mineral 18O/16O analyses and 14D/H analyses. This represents the first detailed isotopic studyof the enormous Phanerozoic K-rich (mostly anorogenic) granitoidbelts of this region, which are thousands of kilometers in lengthand span an age range of >250Ma. Of the five main intrusivesuites, emplacement of the youngest (Permo-Triassic) was accompaniedby intense meteoric-hydrothermal activity, locally causing extreme18O depletio (18O feldspar<12). This reflects thevery low 18O of the water involved in these systems, which probablyhad 18O < 20 and D < 150, consistent withthe high paleolatitude of Transbaikalia in the early Mesozoic(80N). Despite local post-emplacement, hydrothermal 18O-depletioneffects near Permo-Triassic and younger plutons, the variationof magmatic isotopic composition in the five intrusive suites,in space and time, can be clearly discerned using the 18O/16Ovariation in phases such as quartz and sphene that are resistantto sub-solidus exchange. A procedure for analyzing 18O/16O insphene using a laser fluorination technique is described: analysisof samples as small as 0.4 mg (including single crystals ofsphene from granitoids) is possible and provides an effectiveway to estimate the magmatic 18O value of plutonic igneous rocks.Most sphene and quartz 18O values vary by 1.02.0% withineach of the five main intrusive suites in Transbaikalia (rangingin age from mid-Paleozoic to Mesozoic), and are uniform bothwithin individual plutons and among plutons of the same suiteseparated by tens or hundreds of kilometers. However, each suitehas a unique range in 18O/16O, indicating that, on a regionalscale, the magmatic 18O values of these granitoids decreasedprogressively in 1% decrements from +10 in the earliest groupto +6 in the youngest. This progression was accompanied by increasesin the concentration of elements such as K and Zr, and decreasesin the concentration of elements such as Sr and Ba. These systematicsrequire large scale deep crustal melting and mixing processesto generate the compositional uniformity of individual plutonsand groups over such wide areas, and also a progressive hybridizationof the crust with alkalic, mantle-derived magmas to generatesyenites and granites with progressively lower 18O values. Thisprocess may be a hallmark of anorogenic granitoid petrogenesisand the intracontinental cratonization process in general, andalso represents an important (though largely cryptic) crustalgrowth mechanism.

Stable isotope compositions of Ivrea Zone marbles and associatedlithologies are in general heterogeneous. The oxygen isotopecomposition of quartz in pelites ranges from 18O +9 to + 17(SMOW) and does not vary systematically with metamorphic grade.Peridotites retain oxygen isotope signatures close to mantlevalues. Marble calcites vary in isotopic composition from 13C + 2(PDB),180 +24(SMOW)to 13C 6(PDB), 18O + 13 (SMOW).Depletions in 18O and 13C may be explained dominantly by interactionwith fluids derived from within the observed metasedimentarysequence during prograde metamorphism. 18O and 13C show gradients of greater than 5/m across marblemargins and within marbles. The preservation of such isotopicgradients is not consistent with the long-term presence of grain-boundary-scaleinterconnected fluid films in and around marbles. There is ageneral lowering of 18O within individual marble bodies althoughlarge carbon and oxygen isotopic gradients are present. Calcitein marbles may attain oxygen isotope equilibrium, but rarelycarbon isotope equilibrium, with surrounding metapelites. Infiltrationof marbles must involve a component of channelized fluid flow. The general lack of isotopic equilibration within the sequencerequires channelized fluid flow and limited fluid-rock ratios.Large pervasive mantle to crust fluid fluxes are not consistentwith the observations.

Thermal History of the Horoman Peridotite Complex: A Record of Thermal Perturbation in the Lithospheric Mantle 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The ascent history of the Horoman peridotite complex, Hokkaido,northern Japan, is revised on the basis of a detailed studyof large ortho- and clinopyroxene grains 1 cm in size (megacrysts)in the Upper Zone of the complex. The orthopyroxene megacrystsexhibit distinctive M-shaped Al zoning patterns, which werenot observed in porphyroclastic grains less than 5 mm in sizedescribed in previous studies. Moreover, the Al and Ca contentsof the cores of the orthopyroxene megacrysts are lower thanthose of the porphyroclasts. The Upper Zone is inferred to haveresided not only at a higher temperature than previously suggestedbut also at a higher pressure (1070°C, 2·3 GPa) thanthe Lower Zone (950°C, 1·9 GPa), in the garnet stabilityfield, before the ascent of the two zones. The Horoman complexprobably represents a 12 ± 5 km thick section of lithosphericmantle with an 10 ± 8°C/km vertical thermal gradient.The current thickness of the Horoman complex is 3 km, whichis a result of shortening of the lithospheric mantle by 0·25± 0·1 during its ascent. The Upper Zone appearsto have experienced a heating event during its ascent throughthe spinel stability field, with a peak temperature as highas 1200°C. The effect of heating decreases continuouslytowards the base of the complex, and the lowermost part of theLower Zone underwent very minor heating at a pressure higherthan 0·5 GPa. The uplift and associated deformation,as well as heating, was probably driven by the ascent of a hotasthenospheric upper-mantle diapir into the Horoman lithosphere.

The Pikwitonei granulite domain and parts of the Cross Lakesubprovince, located along the northwestern margin of the ArcheanSuperior Province, expose an oblique cross-section through 20km of Archean continental crust. The area has been investigatedusing phase equilibrium and geochronological techniques to derivequantitative pressure-temperature-time paths as a function ofdepth in the crust. Ages from metamorphic minerals indicatethat metamorphism lasted at least from 2744 Ma to 259O Ma, butgrowth of garnet and zircon occurred only during short intervalsat 27442738, 27002687, 26602637, and 26292591Ma. Constraints from experimentally calibrated geobarometersand geothermometers and phase petrology indicate that peakconditions for the last metamorphism, at 2640 Ma, were 575?C/3kbat Utik Lake, 750?C/7kb at Cauchon Lake, 830?C/7?58 kbat Natawahunan Lake, and 9 kb close to the Thompson mobile belt. High-grade metamorphism was associated with intrusion and possiblyunderplating of magmas that had temperatures in excess of 1100?Cand contributed significant amounts of heat that promoted high-grademetamorphism. Mineral textures indicate that during progrademetamorphism, the terrane passed from the andalusite into thesillimanite stability field. After peak metamorphismat 2640 Ma the terrane cooled nearly isobarically at a rateof 12?C/Ma. The observed characteristics of the amphiboliteto granulite terrane are consistent with a model where metamorphismoccurred in a continental magmatic arc setting with a magmaticarc superimposed on older continental crust. Following high-grademetamorphism, the time-integrated uplift rate was <70m/Ma.The crustal cross-section was exposed by late tectonic processesthat were unrelated to the high-grade metamorphism. 相似文献

Geochemistry of South African On- and Off-craton, Group I and Group II Kimberlites: Petrogenesis and Source Region Evolution 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Bulk-rock geochemical compositions of hypabyssal kimberlites,emplaced through the Archaean Kaapvaal craton and ProterozoicNamaquaNatal belt, are used to estimate close-to-primarymagma compositions of Group I kimberlites (Mg-number = 0·820·87;2228 wt % MgO; 2130 wt % SiO2; 1017 wt% CaO; 0·21·7 wt % K2O) and Group II kimberlites(Mg-number = 0·860·89; 2329 wt %MgO; 2836 wt % SiO2; 813 wt % CaO; 1·64·6wt % K2O). Group I kimberlites are distinguished from GroupII by their lower Ba/Nb (<12), Th/Nb (<1·1) andLa/Nb (<1·1) but higher Ce/Pb (>22) ratios. Thedistinct rare earth element patterns of the two types of kimberlitesindicate a more highly metasomatized source for Group II kimberlites,with more residual clinopyroxene and less residual garnet. Thesimilarity of Sr and Nd isotope ratios and diagnostic traceelement ratios (Ce/Pb, Nb/U, La/Nb, Ba/Nb, Th/Nb) of Group Ikimberlites to ocean island basalts (OIB), but more refractoryMg-numbers and Ni contents, are consistent with derivation ofGroup I kimberlites from subcontinental lithospheric mantle(SCLM) that has been enriched by OIB-like melts or fluids. Sourceenrichment ages and plate reconstructions support a direct associationof these melts or fluids with Mesozoic upwelling beneath southernAfrica of a mantle plume(s), at present located beneath thesouthern South Atlantic Ocean. In contrast, the geochemicalcharacteristics of both on- and off-craton Group II kimberlitesshow strong similarity to calc-alkaline magmas, particularlyin their Nb and Ta depletion and Pb enrichment. It is suggestedthat Group II kimberlites are derived from both Archaean andProterozoic lithospheric mantle source regions metasomatizedby melts or fluids associated with ancient subduction events,unrelated to mantle plume upwelling. The upwelling of mantleplumes beneath southern Africa during the Mesozoic, at the timeof Gondwana break-up, may have acted as a heat source for partialmelting of the SCLM and the generation of both Group I and GroupII kimberlite magmas.

Mount Galunggung is a historically active volcano in southwesternJava that has erupted four times in the last two centuries.During the most recent event, which occurred during a 9monthinterval in 1982 83, some 305 106 m3 of mediumK,calcalkaline magma was erupted. This eruption was unusualbecause of its duration, the diversity of eruption dynamicsand products, and the range of lava compositions produced. Thecomposition of juvenile material changed gradually during thecourse of the eruption from initial plagioclase (An6075)and twopyrozene bearing andesites with 58% SiO2 to finalplagioclase (An8590), diopside, and olivine (Fo8590)bearing primitive magnesium basalts with 47% SiO2 Mineralogicaland compositional relationships indicate a magmatic evolutioninvolving differentitation of highMg parental melt. Theeruptive volumes of 35 106 m3 andesite, 120 106 m3 maficandesite, and 150 106 m3 basalt are consistent with the ideathat the 1982 83 eruption progressively tapped and draineda magma chamber that had become chemically stratified throughextensive crystal fractionation. Separates of plagioclase and pyroxene have 18O( SMO W) rangesof + 5. 6 to + 6.0 and + 5.3 to + 5.6, respectively, with 18Oplagpxvalues of + 0.4 to + 0.6o, indicating internal Oisotopeequiliburium at temperature of 1100850 C. The magenesianbasalts have magmatic 18O/ 16O ratios similar to those of midoceanridge basalt, and the Oisotope ratios of compositionallyevolved derivative melts show no evidence for contaminationof the galunggung magmas by 18Orich crust during differentiation.Andesites and transitional mafic and sites have a more variableOisotope character, with laves and phenocrysts havingboth higher and lower 18O values than observed in the parentalmagnesium basalts. These features are interpreted to reflectintramagma chamber processes affecting the upper portions ofthe differentiating Galunggung magma body before the 198283eruption. 相似文献

Melt-Solid Dihedral Angles of Common Minerals in Natural Rocks 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The meltsolid dihedral angle has been measured in a rangeof igneous rock types, ranging in composition from picrite,through basalt, phonolite, andesite and rhyolite, for the mineralsquartz, leucite, plagioclase, olivine, amphibole and clinopyroxene.Populations of up to 104 true 3-D angles were measured in eachsample using a universal stage mounted on an optical microscope.The median and standard deviation of the angle populations foreach mineral are distinct (plagioclase 25°, with standarddeviation (SD) 11°; clinopyroxene 38°, with SD 14°;olivine 29°, with SD 13°; quartz 18°, with SD 9°;leucite 20°, with SD 11°), with no control by eithermelt composition or degree of approach of the grains to theirequilibrium shapes.

Numerous dykes of ultramafic lamprophyre (aillikite, mela-aillikite,damtjernite) and subordinate dolomite-bearing carbonatite withUPb perovskite emplacement ages of 590555 Ma occurin the vicinity of Aillik Bay, coastal Labrador. The ultramaficlamprophyres principally consist of olivine and phlogopite phenocrystsin a carbonate- or clinopyroxene-dominated groundmass. Ti-richprimary garnet (kimzeyite and Ti-andradite) typically occursat the aillikite type locality and is considered diagnosticfor ultramafic lamprophyrecarbonatite suites. Titanianaluminous phlogopite and clinopyroxene, as well as comparativelyAl-enriched but CrMg-poor spinel (Cr-number < 0.85),are compositionally distinct from analogous minerals in kimberlites,orangeites and olivine lamproites, indicating different magmageneses. The Aillik Bay ultramafic lamprophyres and carbonatiteshave variable but overlapping 87Sr/86Sri ratios (0·703690·70662)and show a narrow range in initial Nd (+0·1 to +1·9)implying that they are related to a common type of parentalmagma with variable isotopic characteristics. Aillikite is closestto this primary magma composition in terms of MgO (1520wt %) and Ni (200574 ppm) content; the abundant groundmasscarbonate has 13CPDB between 5·7 and 5,similar to primary mantle-derived carbonates, and 18OSMOW from9·4 to 11·6. Extensive melting of a garnet peridotitesource region containing carbonate- and phlogopite-rich veinsat 47 GPa triggered by enhanced lithospheric extensioncan account for the volatile-bearing, potassic, incompatibleelement enriched and MgO-rich nature of the proto-aillikitemagma. It is argued that low-degree potassic silicate to carbonatiticmelts from upwelling asthenosphere infiltrated the cold baseof the stretched lithosphere and solidified as veins, therebycrystallizing calcite and phlogopite that were not in equilibriumwith peridotite. Continued Late Neoproterozoic lithosphericthinning, with progressive upwelling of the asthenosphere beneatha developing rift branch in this part of the North Atlanticcraton, caused further veining and successive remelting of veinsplus volatile-fluxed melting of the host fertile garnet peridotite,giving rise to long-lasting hybrid ultramafic lamprophyre magmaproduction in conjunction with the break-up of the Rodinia supercontinent.Proto-aillikite magma reached the surface only after coatingthe uppermost mantle conduits with glimmeritic material, whichcaused minor alkali loss. At intrusion level, carbonate separationfrom this aillikite magma resulted in fractionated dolomite-bearingcarbonatites (13CPDB 3·7 to 2·7)and carbonate-poor mela-aillikite residues. Damtjernites maybe explained by liquid exsolution from alkali-rich proto-aillikitemagma batches that moved through previously reaction-lined conduitsat uppermost mantle depths.

Petrology of Mafic Plutons Associated with Calc-Alkaline Granitoids, Chilliwack Batholith, North Cascades, Washington 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
Small (<5 km2), lithologically diverse gabbro and dioritestocks make up 2% of the 34 to 2 Ma Chilliwack batholith, andoverlap in age with associated calc-alkaline granitoids. Thesemafic plutons are similar to those in other I-type bath-oliths,and represent basaltic magmas present during batholith formation.Objectives of this study are: (1) to examine the origins ofboth interpluton and intrapluton petrologic diversity, and (2)to compare chemical and Sr-Nd isotopic traits of these gabbroswith those of Cascade are basalts. Mafic rocks in the Chilliwackare divided into a medium-K series (MKS) and a low-K series(LKS). The former contain 0.72.4 wt% K20 and are similarin composition to calc-alkaline basalts and basaltic andesites.Inverse REE modeling supports derivation of the MKS by 927%melting of a garnet-free, LREE-enriched source (La/bN 2). ChilliwackLKS gabbros have chemical characteristics of low-K olivine tho-eiites,including low K2O (0.30.5 wt%) and La/bN (1.73.4),and high CaO (8.811.3 wt%) and Na2O/K2O (622).These traits suggest a source with more clinopyroxene and lowerLa/bN than the MKS source. Differences in Nd(O) between MKSand LKS gabbros suggest that lower Nd/Sm is a long-lived LKSsource characteristic. Lithologic variation within compositeplutons of both series resulted primarily from multiple intrusionof related magmas, in some cases differentiates of a commonparent. Two contrasting examples were studied in detail. AtMt Sefrit, MKS variation (gabbronorite-quartz diorite) is modeledby low-pressure fractionation (ol + plag + cpx), accompaniedby 10% wallrock assimilation. In contrast, chemical and Sr-Ndisotopic variation among LKS gabbro-quartz diorite at CopperLake points to crystallization dominated by clinopyroxene+plagioclaseCr-spinel,indicative of differentiation at pressures 10 kbar, althoughthe assimilant in this case is poorly constrained. Chemicaland isotopic similarities between these mafic plutons and QuaternaryCascade lavas indicate that mafic magmas present during theproduction of Chilli-wack granitoids were low-and medium-K arebasalts.

Staurolite Stability in a Part of the System Fe-Al-Si-O-H 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The following reactions, believed to be analogous to those whichdefine the maximum extent of staurolite-quartz compatibilityat moderate oxygen fugacity in metamorphic rocks, have beendetermined in terms of hydrous fluid pressure and temperature.The O: H composition ratio of the fluid was controlled withthe quartz-fayalite-magnetite (QFM) buffer assemblage. (I) Fe-staurolitequartz almandine+sillimanite+water. (II) Fe-staurolitequartz Fe-cordierite+sillimanite+water. (III) Fe-chloritoid+sillimanite Fe-staurolite+quartz+water. In addition, two reactions which delineate part of the stabilitylimits of Fe-cordierite have been investigated: (IV) Fe-cordierite almandine+sillimanite+quartz. (V) Fe-cordierite hercynite+sillimanite+quartz. The experimental information has been used to predict boundariesto the PT fields of all quartz and QFM-buffered fluid-bearingassemblages involving Fe-staurolite, Fe-cordierite, Fe-chloritoid,almandine, and sillimanite. Using information from this andother studies, three mineral assemblages are recognized whichare stable at similar temperatures but different fluid pressures.In order of decreasing pressure they are: (a) Above 5 kb: staurolite, quartz, kyanite, fluid; (b) Between 1.5 and 8.5 kb (outer limits; in natural rocks thisfield will have a much narrower pressure range) staurolite,quartz, cordierite, fluid. (c) Below 3.5 kb: Fe-cordierite, andalusite, fluid of oxygenfugacity equivalent to the quartz-fayalite-magnetite assemblage. These phase assemblages may be the equivalents of naturallyoccurring mineral facies, but this must be proven in the field.In addition the absence of cordierite from rocks of appropriatecomposition and temperature of formation betokens total pressuresgreater than 35 kb.

A detailed petrological and geochemical study of low-temperatureperidotite xenoliths from Kimberley and northern Lesotho ispresented to constrain the processes that led to the magmaphileelement depletion of the Kaapvaal cratonic lithospheric mantleand its subsequent re-enrichment in Si and incompatible traceelements. Whole-rocks and minerals have been characterized forReOs isotope compositions, and major and trace elementconcentrations, and garnet and clinopyroxene for LuHfand SmNd isotope compositions. Most samples are characterizedby Archaean Os model ages, low Al, Fe and Ca contents, highMg/Fe, low Re/Os, very low (< 0·1 x chondrite) heavyrare earth element (HREE) concentrations and a decoupling betweenNd and Hf isotope ratios. These features are most consistentwith initial melting at 3·2 Ga followed by metasomatismby hydrous fluids, which may have also caused additional meltingto produce a harzburgitic residue. The low HREE abundances ofthe peridotites require that extensive melting occurred in thespinel stability field, possibly preceded by some melting inthe presence of garnet. Fractional melting models suggest that30% melting in the spinel field or 20% melting in the garnetfield followed by 20% spinel-facies melting are required toexplain the most melt-depleted samples. Garnet NdHf isotopecharacteristics indicate metasomatic trace element enrichmentduring the Archaean. We therefore suggest a model includingshallow ridge melting, followed by metasomatism of the Kaapvaalupper mantle in subduction zones surrounding cratonic nuclei,probably during amalgamation of smaller pre-existing terranesin the Late Archaean (2·9 Ga). The fluid-metasomatizedresidua have subsequently undergone localized silicate meltinfiltration that led to clinopyroxene ± garnet enrichment.Calculated equilibrium liquids for clinopyroxene and their HfNdisotope compositions suggest that most diopside in the xenolithscrystallized from an infiltrating kimberlite-like melt, eitherduring Group II kimberlite magmatism at 200110 Ma (Kimberley),or shortly prior to eruption of the host kimberlite around 90Ma (northern Lesotho).

Rates of magmatic processes in a cooling magma chamber wereinvestigated for alkali basalt and trachytic andesite lavaserupted sequentially from Rishiri Volcano, northern Japan, bydating of these lavas using 238U230Th radioactive disequilibriumand 14C dating methods, in combination with theoretical analyses.We obtained the eruption age of the basaltic lavas to be 29·3± 0·6 ka by 14C dating of charcoals. The eruptionage of the andesitic lavas was estimated to be 20·2 ±3·1 ka, utilizing a whole-rock isochron formed by UThfractionation as a result of degassing after lava emplacement.Because these two lavas represent a series of magmas producedby assimilation and fractional crystallization in the same magmachamber, the difference of the ages (i.e. 9 kyr) is a timescaleof magmatic evolution. The thermal and chemical evolution ofthe Rishiri magma chamber was modeled using mass and energybalance constraints, as well as quantitative information obtainedfrom petrological and geochemical observations on the lavas.Using the timescale of 9 kyr, the thickness of the magma chamberis estimated to have been about 1·7 km. The model calculationsshow that, in the early stage of the evolution, the magma cooledat a relatively high rate (>0·1°C/year), and thecooling rate decreased with time. Convective heat flux fromthe main magma body exceeded 2 W/m2 when the magma was basaltic,and the intensity diminished exponentially with magmatic evolution.Volume flux of crustal materials to the magma chamber and rateof convective melt exchange (compositional convection) betweenthe main magma and mush melt also decreased with time, from 0·1 m/year to 103 m/year, and from 1 m/yearto 102 m/year, respectively, as the magmas evolved frombasaltic to andesitic compositions. Although the mechanism ofthe cooling (i.e. thermal convection and/or compositional convection)of the main magma could not be constrained uniquely by the model,it is suggested that compositional convection was not effectivein cooling the main magma, and the magma chamber is consideredto have been cooled by thermal convection, in addition to heatconduction.

The Grønnedal-Ika complex is dominated by layered nephelinesyenites which were intruded by a xenolithic syenite and a centralplug of calcite to calcitesiderite carbonatite. Aegirineaugite,alkali feldspar and nepheline are the major mineral phases inthe syenites, along with rare calcite. Temperatures of 680910°Cand silica activities of 0·280·43 weredetermined for the crystallization of the syenites on the basisof mineral equilibria. Oxygen fugacities, estimated using titanomagnetitecompositions, were between 2 and 5 log units above the fayalitemagnetitequartzbuffer during the magmatic stage. Chondrite-normalized REE patternsof magmatic calcite in both carbonatites and syenites are characterizedby REE enrichment (LaCNYbCN = 1070). Calcite fromthe carbonatites has higher Ba (5490 ppm) and lower HREE concentrationsthan calcite from the syenites (54106 ppm Ba). This isconsistent with the behavior of these elements during separationof immiscible silicatecarbonate liquid pairs. Nd(T =1·30 Ga) values of clinopyroxenes from the syenites varybetween +1·8 and +2·8, and Nd(T) values of whole-rockcarbonatites range from +2·4 to +2·8. Calcitefrom the carbonatites has 18O values of 7·8 to 8·6and 13C values of 3·9 to 4·6. 18Ovalues of clinopyroxene separates from the nepheline syenitesrange between 4·2 and 4·9. The average oxygenisotopic composition of the nepheline syenitic melt was calculatedbased on known rockwater and mineralwater isotopefractionation to be 5·7 ± 0·4. Nd and COisotope compositions are typical for mantle-derived rocks anddo not indicate significant crustal assimilation for eithersyenite or carbonatite magmas. The difference in 18O betweencalculated syenitic melts and carbonatites, and the overlapin Nd values between carbonatites and syenites, are consistentwith derivation of the carbonatites from the syenites via liquidimmiscibility.

Komatiites from the 2 Ga Jeesiörova area in Finnish Laplandhave subchondritic Al2O3/TiO2 ratios like those in Al-depletedkomatiites from Barberton, South Africa. They are distinct inthat their Al abundances are higher than those of the Al-depletedrocks and similar to levels in Al-undepleted komatiites. Moderatelyincompatible elements such as Ti, Zr, Eu, and Gd are enriched.Neither majorite fractionation nor hydrous melting in a supra-subductionzone setting could have produced these komatiites. Their highconcentrations of moderately incompatible elements may haveresulted from contamination of their parental melt through interactionwith metasomatic assemblages in the lithospheric mantle or enrichmentof their mantle source in basaltic melt components. ReOsisotope data for chromite from the Jeesiörova rocks yieldan average initial 187Os/188Os of 0·1131 ± 0·0006(2), Os(I) = 0·1 ± 0·5. These data, coupledwith an initial Nd of +4, indicate that melt parental to thekomatiites interacted minimally with ancient lithospheric mantle.If their mantle source was enriched in a basaltic component,the combined OsNd isotopic data limit the enrichmentprocess to within 200 Myr prior to the formation of the komatiites.Their OsNd isotopic composition is consistent with derivationfrom the contemporaneous convecting upper mantle.

The digital image of airborne radiometric data across SouthAfrica reveals that the largest anomaly, 100 nGy/h, is causedby the granulite-facies rocks of the Namaquan metamorphic complex,whereas most of the country is <60 nGy/h. This observationis consistent with geochemical data that show that the 1900± 100 Ma greenschist-facies Richtersveld Terrane nearNamibia (max. U = 3·4 ppm; Th = 20·1 ppm) andthe adjacent, 1100 ± 100 Ma, amphibolite-facies Aggeneys/SteinkopfTerranes (max. U 10 ppm; Th 52 ppm) are the least enrichedin U, Th and K. In contrast, the lower-T granulite-facies OkiepTerrane near Springbok hosts more enriched granites (max. U 17 ppm; Th 66 ppm) and noritic intrusions (max. U = 14 ppm;Th = 83 ppm). The most enriched rocks are found in the 1030Ma higher-T granulite-facies core of the Namaquan belt and includequartzo-feldspathic gneisses (max. U = 46 ppm; Th = 90 ppm)and charnockites (max. U = 52 ppm; Th = 400 ppm). Our findingscontradict the notion that granulite-facies terrains are characteristicallydepleted in U and Th. In this study we modeled the heat productionin the core of the Namaquan complex, where the granulites havehad a very unusual metamorphic history, and show that ultra-high-T(1000°C, P 10 kbar) metamorphic conditions could have beenachieved by radiogenic heating without invoking external heatsources. However, monazite-rich veins of charnockite and patchesof granulites mark the passage of CO2-dominated melts and fluidsderived from fractionated noritic intrusions.

Metapelitic Migmatites from Brattstrand Bluffs, East Antarctica--Metamorphism, Melting and Exhumation of the Mid Crust 总被引:15,自引:1,他引:14
Metapelitic migmatites at Brattstrand Bluffs, East Antarctica,preserve granulite assemblages and a complex deformational history.Crystallized granitic melt accounts for 25% of exposed rocks,and was produced by biotite dehydration-melting reactions inthe host metapelite. Variable degrees of melt production andextraction resulted in a range of bulk compositions in the residualmetapelite, from quartz-rich migmatites to restitic quartz-absentpelite. Decompressional reaction textures indicate 11 km ofexhumation after peak metamorphism at PT conditions of6 kbar and 860C Decompression occurred during a single cycleof partial melting and melt crystallization at 500 Ma, and wassynchronous with tectonic unroofing of the Brattstrand Bluffsmigmatites along ductile shear zones. Exhumation has been proposedas a cause of dehydration melting in the Himalaya and elsewhere,but melting at Brattstrand Bluffs was ultimately driven by thetectonic perturbation and subsequent thermal relaxation responsiblefor high metamorphic temperatures. Exhumation did not drivemelting reactions, but it is likely that the presence of meltfocused deformation in the migmatites and thus promoted exhumation.
