Distribution coefficients (K D·Fe ++ –Mg) calculated for orthopyroxene-clinopyroxene pairs from 12 basic granulites of the Quairading district, Western Australia, range from 1.87 for magnesian pyroxenes (Opx Mg value=78.1) to 1.70 for iron-rich varieties (Opx Mg value 37.7). Field and petrographic evidence indicates that these pyroxenes have probably reached equilibrium within a narrow temperature range. In order to account for the observed variation of K D values it is suggested that one (or both) of the pyroxene structures is not the ideal Fe++-Mg solution proposed in the thermodynamic model of the pyroxene equilibrium exchange. After consideration of the geometry of the pyroxene cation sites, the relative bond energies of each site (especially crystal field stabilization energy) and structural ordering a model is proposed to explain the non-ideal behaviour of Fe++-Mg in the pyroxene system. The distribution pattern in low-iron pyroxenes will probably show Fe++ favouring the M 2·Opx site; competing unfavourably with Mg++ for the M 1·Cpxsite; and probably excluded by Mg++ from the M 1·Opxsite. As the iron content of the system increases the M 2·Opxsite will begin to become saturated with Fe++ and this ion will enter the M 1·Opx site. Further increases in the iron content of the system will cause the Fe++-Mg distribution to depend increasingly on the relative attraction of the M 1 sites of both pyroxenes. Of these sites Fe++ should show preference to the more distorted M 1·Cpxsite. The distribution coefficient reflects this swing towards a relative enrichment of Fe++ in the clinopyroxene by decreasing regularly with increasing iron content. It is likely that this downward trend will not become evident until the iron content of the M 2·Opx site reaches saturation. This would explain why the K D values for the magnesian pyroxenes remain practically unchanged until the orthopyroxene Mg value is approximately 60; from here on the iron-rich pyroxenes show a rapid decrease in K D value with increasing iron content.The Ca content of the pyroxenes is also significant since the Quairading pyroxenes show a marked increase in mutual solubility with increasing iron content. Calcium taken into the orthopyroxene structure will enter the M 2 site ahead of Fe++ so that this site will reach Fe++ saturation at a lower iron content than when the orthopyroxene is Ca-free.The application of K D values to the regional study of basic granulites, particularly when establishing relative temperature zones on the basis of K D variation, should only be attempted when pyroxenes which extend over a wide range of Fe-Mg content are available.  相似文献

A series of basaltic compositions and compositions within the simple system CaO-MgO-FeO-Al2O3-SiO2 have been crystallized to garnetclinopyroxene bearing mineral assemblages in the range 24–30 kb pressure, 750°–1,300° C temperature. Microprobe analyses of coexisting garnet and clinopyroxene show that K D(Fe2+/MgG+/Fe2+/MgCpx) for the Fe-Mg exchange reaction between coexisting garnet and clinopyroxene is obviously dependent upon the Ca-content and apparently independent of the Mg/(Mg+Fe) content of the clinopyroxene and garnet. The Ca-effect is believed to be due to a combination of non-ideal Ca-Mg substitutions in the garnet and clinopyroxene. Our data and interpretation reconciles previous inconsistencies in the temperature dependence of K D ? values determined in experimental studies of simple systems, complex basalt, grospydite and garnet peridotite compositions. Previous differences between the effect of pressure upon K Das predicted from simple system theory (Banno, 1970), and that observed in experiments on multicomponent natural rock compositions (Råheim and Green, 1974a) can now be resolved. We have determined K Das a function of P, T, and X Gt Ca (grossular) and derived the empirical relation $$T\left( {^\circ {\text{K}}} \right) = \frac{{3104X_{{\text{Ca}}}^{{\text{Gt}}} + 3030 + 10.86P\left( {{\text{kb}}} \right)}}{{\ln K_{\text{D}} + 1.9034}}$$ . This empirical relationship has been applied to garnet-clinopyroxene bearing rocks from a wide range of geological environments. The geothermometer yields similar estimates for garnet-clinopyroxene equilibration for neighbouring rocks of different composition and different K Dvalues. In addition, temperature estimates using the above relationship are more consistent with independent temperature estimates based on other geothermometers than previous estimates which did not correct for the Ca-effect. An alternative approach to the above empirical geothermometer was attempted using regular solution models to derive Margules parameters for various solid solutions in garnets and clinopyroxenes. The derived Margules parameters are broadly consistent with those determined from binary solution studies, but caution must be exercised in interpreting them in terms of actual thermodynamic properties of the relevant crystalline solid solutions because of the assumptions which necessarily have to be made in this approach.  相似文献

The compositions of metamorphic pyroxenes from blueschists in northern New Caledonia are investigated. Aegerine-augite occurs in siliceous metasediments and aegerine in some low-grade sodic basic schists. Calcic metamorphic pyroxene (omphacite and chloromelanite) appears first in metabasalts in higher grades of the lawsonite zone and is widespread in metamorphosed igneous rocks and quartzofeldspathic gneisses of the epidote zone. Omphacites in basic rocks have higher Mg∶Fe ratios and are less jadeitic than omphacites from adjacent interbedded quartzofeldspathic gneisses. With increasing metamorphic grade pyroxenes become more jadeitic and diopsidic at the expense of their acmite component. Elemental partitioning between coexisting pyroxenes, garnets and amphiboles from in situ regional metamorphic rocks is generally regular, suggesting equilibrium crystallization. Omphacite appears to be a stable phase within blueschist facies over a temperature range of at least 350° to 550° C. The “eclogitic” assemblage almandine-omphacite is stable within the earth's crust in metamorphosed sediments and igneous rocks over a temperature range of 400° to at least 550° C. No estimate of absolute pressures involved in metamorphism in the Ouégoa district can yet be made.  相似文献

In the Sesia Zone of the Western Alps, Italy, early Alpine blueschist to eclogite facies metamorphism of rocks of quartzofeldspathic composition has produced the same high-pressure assemblage of; quartz, Na-pyroxene, Na-amphibole, paragonite, phengite, zoisite, garnet, magnetite, sphene and Fe-sulphide (=the QFS assemblage) over an area (> 150 km2. Relative gradients in pressure and temperature over this region are reflected in the variations in mineral chemistries of the individual phases of the quartzofeldspathic assemblage through continuous reactions. Mineralogical discontinuities do not occur in the QFS assemblage of this region. Increases in the Jadeite content of the pyroxenes (X Jd 0.48 to X Jd 0.93) and in the glaucophane content of the amphiboles (X Gl 0.89 to X Gl 0.96) occur from the southwest to the northeast of the region studied. Analysis of coexisting garnets and pyroxenes indicate that the compositional variation of amphiboles and pyroxenes is associated with a decrease in the grossular component of the coexisting garnet. Zoned pyroxenes and garnets, together with the regional trends in mineral chemistries suggest that the evolution of the QFS assemblage with increasing pressure may be modelled by pressure-sensitive continuous reactions in which amphibole, zoisite and the more jadeitic pyroxene constitute the high-pressure assemblage. Chemographic constraints permit the positioning in pressure/temperature space of the compositional isopleths of those model continuous reactions involving these phases which meet the textural and chemical criteria observed in the natural assemblages. The low dP/dT slope (–20 bars/° C) of these isopleths causes the continuous reactions to be useful for geobarometric calculations at pressures above the absolute breakdown of albite to jadeite plus quartz. In addition the pseudobinary loops for the other continuous reactions which are potentially useful geobarometers and involve either the NaAlCa–1Mg–1 exchange or the MgCa–1 exchange are calculated. Comparison of mineral chemistries with the isopleths yields a relative barometric scheme for the localities studied. With these barometric observations, it is possible to show that the P-T path which the Sesia body travelled towards the final recorded state was one of increasing pressure. Other blueschist and eclogite occurrences from Syros and Sifnos which contain rocks of quartzofeldspathic composition are also examined.  相似文献

The separate distributions for MgSiO3 and FeSiO3 in coexisting pyroxenes from the Skaergaard and Bushveld intrusions and charnockites, which were introduced in an earlier communication, indicate directly that significant amounts of both Fe2+ and Mg were present in the M(2) site of the Ca-rich pyroxene at the temperature of final intercrystalline equilibration. The calculated Fe2+ M(2) site occupancy in the Ca-rich pyroxene increases markedly with decrease in total MgSiO3 content but the corresponding Mg site occupancy appears largely independent of MgSiO3. The mean value of the distribution constant for intracrystalline exchange in the Ca-rich pyroxene decreases, away from unity, with decreasing temperature of equilibration. Occupancy of Mg and Fe2+ in the M (2) site of the Ca-rich pyroxene effectively compensates for the expected variation in K D with composition resulting from intracrystalline partition in Ca-poor pyroxene, and this largely accounts for the difference in K D between igneous and metamorphic pyroxenes. The variation of the augite limb of the pyroxene solvus within the pyroxene quadrilateral is developed as a possible geothermometer.  相似文献

Experimental data combined with data from natural rocks have been used to calibrate a geothermometer based on the distribution of Fe2+ and Mg between coexisting garnets and phengites. The pressure effect on the K D -value appears to be considerable. The calculated thermometer is expressed as $$T(K) = \frac{{3685 + 77.1P(kb)}}{{InK_D + 3.52}}.$$ The use of this \(K_{D_{(FeO/MgO)} }^{ga + ph}\) geothermometer on eclogites with low Fe2O3 content, gives P-T values which are in good accordance with those obtained by other methods. The problems that arise when Fe3+ is present in larger amounts, are discussed.  相似文献

Multiple regression analysis on an extended dataset has been performed to refine the relationship between temperature, pressure, composition and the Fe–Mg distribution between garnet and clinopyroxene. In addition to a significant dependence between the distribution coefficient KD and X GrtCa and X GrtMg#, as shown by the experimental data, the effect of X GrtMn has also been incorporated using data from natural Mn‐rich garnet–clinopyroxene pairs. Multiple regression of data (n=360) covering a large span in pressure, temperature and composition from 27 experimental datasets, combined with 49 natural high‐Mn granulites from Ruby Range, Montana, USA, and Karnataka, India, yields the P–T –compositional relationship (r2=0.98): where KD=(Fe2+/Mg)Grt/(Fe2+/Mg)Cpx, X GrtCa=Ca/(Ca+Mn+Fe2++Mg) in garnet, X GrtMn= Mn/(Ca+Mn+Fe2++Mg) in garnet, and X GrtMg#=Mg/(Mg+Fe2+) in garnet. The Fe2+–Mg equilibrium between garnet and clinopyroxene does not seem to be affected by variations in the sodic content of the co‐existing clinopyroxene in the range X CpxNa=0–0.51. Comparisons between the new and former calibrations of the garnet–clinopyroxene Fe2+–Mg geothermometer clearly demonstrate how the various parameters in each case affect the calculated temperatures. Application of the new expression gives reasonable results for natural garnet–clinopyroxene pairs from various rock types and settings, and should be preferred to previous formulations. Using the new calibration to the self‐consistent dataset of Pattison & Newton (Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology, 1989, 101, 87–103) suggests a systematic deviation with regard to both temperature and composition between their dataset and the datasets used in the present calibration.  相似文献

Kinetic rates of Fe2+-Mg disordering in three orthopyroxenes (mean value of XFe = Fe2+/(Fe2++Mg) = 0.175,0.482,0.770 respectively) have been determined employing heating experiments and single crystal X-ray structural refinements. Disordering rate constants \((\vec K)\) (550800° C) for two pyroxenes are given by: ln \((\vec K)\) = 27.107(±5.177)?32062(±783)T?1(XFe = 0.175) ln \((\vec K)\) = 16.142(±0.057)?18227(±423)T?1(XFe = 0.770) The distribution coefficients KD (representing a steady state of disordering FeM2 + MgM1 ? FeM1 + MgM2) are given by: ln KD = 5.016(±0.223)-7033(±1473) T?1(XFe = 0.175) ln KD = 1.988(±0.122)-3809(±913)T?1(XFe = 0.770) These distribution coefficients provide the constraint of the disordering reaction on the value of the equilibrium constant for Fe2+-Mg order-disorder. Until the low temperature dependence of KD is well constrained, the calculation of cooling rates of pyroxenes and host rocks cannot be done reliably.  相似文献

Published experimental data including garnet and clinopyroxene as run products were used to develop a new formulation of the garnet–clinopyroxene geothermometer based on 333 garnet–clinopyroxene pairs. Only experiments with graphite capsules were selected because of difficulty in estimating the Fe3+ content of clinopyroxene. For the calibration, a published subregular‐solution model was adopted to express the non‐ideality of garnet. The magnitude of the Fe–Mg excess interaction parameter for clinopyroxene (WFeMgCpx), and differences in enthalpy and entropy of the Fe–Mg exchange reaction were regressed from the accumulated experimental data set. As a result, a markedly negative value was obtained for the Fe–Mg excess interaction parameter of clinopyroxene (WFeMgCpx = ? 3843 J mol?1). The pressure correction is simply treated as linear, and the difference in volume of the Fe–Mg exchange reaction was calculated from a published thermodynamic data set and fixed to be ?120.72 (J kbar?1 mol?1). The regressed and obtained thermometer formulation is as follows: where T = temperature, P = pressure (kbar), A = 0.5 Xgrs (Xprp ? Xalm ? Xsps), B = 0.5 Xgrs (Xprp ? Xalm + Xsps), C = 0.5 (Xgrs + Xsps) (Xprp ? Xalm), Xprp = Mg/(Fe2+ + Mn + Mg + Ca)Grt, Xalm = Fe/(Fe2+ + Mn + Mg + Ca)Grt, Xsps = Mn/(Fe2+ + Mn + Mg + Ca)Grt, Xgrs = Ca/(Fe2+ + Mn + Mg + Ca)Grt, XMgCpx = Mg/(Al + Fetotal + Mg)Cpx, XFeCpx = Fe2+/(Al + Fetotal + Mg)Cpx, KD = (Fe2+/Mg)Grt/(Fe2+/Mg)Cpx, Grt = garnet, Cpx = clinopyroxene. A test of this new formulation to the accumulated data gave results that are concordant with the experimental temperatures over the whole range of the experimental temperatures (800–1820 °C), with a standard deviation (1 sigma) of 74 °C. Previous formulations of the thermometer are inconsistent with the accumulated data set; they underestimate temperatures by about 100 °C at >1300 °C and overestimate by 100–200 °C at <1300 °C. In addition, they tend to overestimate temperatures for high‐Ca garnet (Xgrs ≈ 0.30–0.50). This new formulation has been tested against previous formulations of the thermometer by application to natural eclogites. This gave temperatures some 20–100 °C lower than previous formulations.  相似文献

The Fe-Mg-Ca-distribution was investigated in synthesis experiments and with the mineral assemblage orthopyroxene+clinopyroxene+quartz. The phase compositions were identified by X-ray diffraction and, where possible, by electron microprobe. The attainment of equilibrium in the run products was signalled by the compositions from control runs (different solutions) becoming closely similar, by recycling runs, by the attainment of equilibrium from different directions (depending on the composition of starting phases), and by special kinetic experiments.The study produced the following results: (1) the Ca content of the clinopyroxenes decreases with increasing Fe (mol%) from 48.4 at X Cpx Fe =5 to 39.8 at X Cpx Fe =45 (800° C); from 47.6 at X Cpx Fe = 10 to 41.7 at X Cpx Fe =45 (750° C); increasing temperature expands the stability field of the less calcic clinopyroxenes. (2) The Ca content of orthopyroxenes increases slightly with Fe content from 1.8 at X Opx Fe =20.5 to 3.2 at X Opx Fe =75; the temperature effect on the Ca content under the T, P conditions of the experiment was not large. (3) Fe and Mg distribution between the coexisting ortho-and clinopyroxenes is largely temperature-dependent, particularly in the compositional range X Opx Fe =15–75 mol%; as T increases, Fe redistributes from the rhombic to monoclinic mineral.Preliminary estimates of rock formation temperatures using the obtained data show that most of the known two-pyroxene geothermometers overstate the actual values by 50–150° C.  相似文献

Ferric iron in mantle-derived garnets   总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4  
The oxidation state of a mantle assemblage may be defined by heterogeneous reactions between oxygen and iron-bearing minerals. In spinel lherzolites, the presence of Fe3+ in spinel allows use of the assemblage olivine-orthopyroxene-spinel to define f O 2 at fixed T and P. As a first step towards establishing an analogous reaction for garnet lherzolites, garnets from mantle-derived xenoliths from South Africa and the USSR have been analyzed with 57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy at 298 and 77K to determine Fe3+/Fe2+ and the coordination state of iron. Garnets from South African alkremites (pyrope+Mg-spinel) and eclogites, as well as garnet-spinel and low-temperature garnet lherzolites from both South Afica and the USSR, have Fe3+/Fe<0.07. In contrast, garnets from high-temperature garnet lherzolites from within the Kaapvaal craton of South Africa have Fe3+/Fe>0.10. Ferric iron is octahedrally coordinated, and ferrous iron is present in the dodecahedral site in all samples. The occurrence of significant Fe3+ in these garnets necessitates caution in the use of geothermometers and geobarometers that are applied to mantle samples. For example, the presence of 12% of the Fe as Fe3+ in garnets can increase temperatures calculated from existing Fe/Mg geothermometers by>200°C. The concomitant increase in pressures calculated from geobarometers that use the Al content in orthopyroxene coexisting with garnet are 10–15 kbar. Results of calculations based on heterogeneous equilibria between garnet, olivine, and pyroxene are consistent with the derivation of the peridotite samples from source regions that are relatively oxidized, between the f O 2 of the FMQ (quartz-fayalite-magnetite) buffer and that of the WM buffer. No samples yield values of f O 2 as reduced as IW (iron-wüstite buffer).  相似文献

Multiply-twinned clinoenstatite has been found in andesitic rocks from Chichi-jima and Mukojima in the Bonin Islands.The clinoenstatite occurs as (1) reaction rims around olivine, (2) composite crystals with bronzite, and (3) anhedral phenocrysts rimmed or included by bronzite.The clinoenstatite is chemically characterized by low contents of Ca (less than 0.5 wt.% oxide), Fs (9.2–11.5) and Al (less than 0.6 wt.% oxide) relative to the coexisting bronzite. The partition coefficient, K D op cp =(Mg/Fe2+)cp/(Mg/Fe2+)op between coexisting clinoenstatite and bronzite, ranges from 1.02 to 1.32 (average 1.17). The Fe2+/Mg+Fe2+ ratios of coexisting clinoenstatite and bronzite are different in different rock types, which suggests variable inversion temperatures of protoenstatite to orthopyroxene in boninite.Bronzite phenocrysts in a specimen, ranging from Fs15 to Fs30, coexist with augite phenocrysts, whereas those in the other specimens, ranging from Fs12 to Fs18, do not coexist with augite phenocrysts. These differences in petrographical nature and mineral chemistry among the specimens examined may be due to variations in their quenching stages.The boninite clinoenstatite and bronzite are relatively rich in Ca and Mg, compared with the Papuan and Mariana pyroxenes, which seems to depend upon the rock chemistry.  相似文献

Crystalline primary inclusions in diamonds from the Argyle and Ellendale lamproites have been analyzed for Mn, Ni, Cu, Zn, Ga, Pb, Rb, Sr, Y, Zr, Nb, Ta, Ba and Mo by proton microprobe. Eclogite-suite inclusions dominate at Argyle and occur in equal proportions with peridotite-suite inclusions at Ellendale. Eclogitic phases present include garnet, omphacitic clinopyroxene, coesite, rutile, kyanite and sulfide. Eclogitic clinopyroxenes are commonly rich in K and contain 300–1060 ppm Sr and 3–70 ppm Zr: K/Rb increases with K content up to 1400 at 0.7–1.1% K. Rutiles have high Zr and Nb contents with Zr/Nb=1.5–4 and Nb/Ta 16. Of the peridotite-suite inclusions, olivine commonly contains > 10 ppm Sr and Mo; Cr-pyropes are depleted in Sr, Y and Zr, and enriched in Ni, relative to eclogitic garnets.Eclogite-suite diamonds grew in host rocks that were depleted in Mn, Ni and Cr, and enriched in Sr, Zn, Cu, Ga and Ti, relative to Type I eclogite xenoliths from the Roberts Victor Mine. Crystallization temperatures of the eclogite-suite diamonds, as determined by coexisting garnet and clinopyroxene from single diamonds, range from 1085 to 1575° C. Log K D (C i cpx /C i gnt ) varies linearly with 1/T for Zr, Sr and Ga in most of the same samples. This supports the validity of the temperature estimates; Argyle eclogite-suite diamonds have grown over a T range 400° C. Comparison with data from eclogite xenoliths in kimberlites suggests that K D Sr and K D Zr are mainly T-dependent, while K D Ga may be both temperature-and pressuredependent. K D Ni , K D Cu and K D Zn show no T dependence in these samples.In several cases, significant major-and/or trace-element disequilibrium is observed between different grains of the same mineral, or between pyroxene and garnet, within single diamonds. This implies that these diamonds grew in an open system; inclusions trapped at different stages of growth record changes in major and trace-element composition occurring in the host rock. Diamond growth may have been controlled by a fluid flux which introduced or liberated carbon and modified the composition of the rock. The wide range of equilibration temperatures and the range of composition recorded in the inclusions of single diamonds suggest that a significant time interval was involved in diamond growth.  相似文献

Summary The results of microprobe analyses of clinopyroxenes from alkaline melasyenites and layered melagabbros, produced by intra-plate magmatism of Paleocene age at Punta delle Pietre Nere, are here given and discussed.The analysed pyroxenes range from diopsidic to acmite-rich compositions.The first crystallized pyroxenes (diopside) show AlVI contents suggesting shallow depths of crystallization. In addition pyroxenes from melasyenite and those from melagabbro display different Cr contents, Al/Ti and Mg/(Mg+Fe2++Fe3+) ratios confirming their crystallization from melts produced by different parental liquids.Diopsides and salites show an overall trend towards high Al, Ti and Fe3+, suggesting that the crystallization occurred under decreasing SiO2/Al2O3 ratios and under relatively highpH2O–pO2 conditions.Pyroxenes from the Pietre Nere melasyenite show a progressive variation towards acmite rich compositions at Mg/(Mg+Fe2++Fe3+) lower than 0.5; those from the layered melagabbro, instead, show a continuous enrichment in Ca Fe3+ AlSiO6. This different behaviour is due to the co-crystallization, with the latest pyroxenes, of phases with different K/Na and Si/Al ratios.
Kristallisations-Tendenzen der Pyroxene aus Alkali-Subvulkaniten auf Punta delle Pietre Nere (Gargano, Süditalien)
Zusammenfassung Es werden die Ergebnisse der Mikrosonden-Untersuchungen von Klinopyroxenen aus Alkali-Melasyeniten und schichtigen Alkali-Melagabbros, die durch Intra-plate-Magmatismus paläozenen Alters auf Punta delle Pietre Nere entstanden sind, beschrieben und erörtert.Die untersuchten Pyroxene reichen von diopsidischen bis zu Akmit-reichen Zusammensetzungen.Die zuerst kristallisierten Pyroxene (Diopsid) zeigen AlVI-Gehalte, die auf geringe Tiefe des Kristallisationsvorganges hinweisen. Dazu zeigen die Pyroxene aus dem Melasyenit und aus dem Melagabbro unterschiedliche Cr-Gehalte; die Al/Ti- und Mg/(Mg+Fe2++Fe3+)-Verhältnisse bestätigen deren Kristallisation aus Schmelzen, die aus unterschiedlichen Ursprungsmagmen stammen.Die Diopside und Salite zeigen eine einheitliche Tendenz zu hohem Al-, Ti- und Fe3+-Gehalt; dies deutet darauf hin, daß die Kristallisation unter abnehmenden SiO2/Al2O3-Verhältnissen und unter relativ hohenpH2O–pO2-Bedingungen stattfand.Die Pyroxene aus dem Punta delle Pietre Nere-Melasyenit zeigen eine zunehmende Änderung zu Akmit-reichen Zusammensetzungen bei weniger als 0,5 Mg/(Mg+Fe2++Fe3+); die Pyroxene aus dem schichtig differenzierten Melagabbro zeigen dagegen eine allmähliche Zunahme von CaFe3+AlSiO6. Dieses unterschiedliche Verhalten rührt daher, daß Mineralphasen mit unterschiedlichen K/Na- und Si/Al-Verhältnissen zugleich mit den zuletzt gebildeten Pyroxenen kristallisierten.

Solubility experiments were performed at 30 kbars in the system Mg2SiO4-SiO2-H2O, and at 20 and 30 kbars on omphacitic pyroxene-water mixtures. They confirm that the solubility of the forsterite component in aqueous fluids remains rather low (up to 5 wt.%), whereas the solubility of the SiO2 component from solids of appropriate SiO2-rich compositions in the system Mg2SiO4-SiO2-H2O increases with temperature up to some 75% at 1,100° C. At this temperature a simplified harzburgite consisting of forsterite and enstatite coexists with a fluid containing about 35% (MgO+SiO2). Hydrous fluids coexisting with omphacitic clinopyroxenes leach sodium silicate component from the solid leaving less jadeitic pyroxenes behind. Most interestingly, the amount of sodium leached at constant temperature increases with decreasing pressure.Comparison of the results with previous solubility studies in the system K2O-MgO-Al2O3-SiO2-H2O indicates that hydrous fluids in the mantle must be alkaline rather than silicanormative. Alkali metasomatism caused by such fluids would lead to potassium enrichment in deeper portions of the upper mantle and to sodium enrichment at shallower levels, where amphiboles become stable. This K/Na fractionation in the upper mantle may explain the generation of K-rich or of Na-rich magmas through partial melting at different depths.  相似文献

The compositions of coexisting hornblendes and biotites from amphibolite and granulite facies gneisses from the south coast of Western Australia were controlled by host rock composition, paragenesis, metamophic grade, pressure, and oxygen fugacity. The Mg/(Mg + Fe2+) and Mn/Fe2+ ratios in both minerals and possibly the Alvi contents of the hornblendes are related to host rock compositions. Metamorphic grade appears to influence, perhaps only indirectly, the Ti, Mn, and Fe3+ contents of both minerals and possibly the hornblende Ca content. The higher Ti and lower Mn contents of the granulite facies hornblendes and biotites are attributed to their coexistence with pyroxenes, whereas their lower Fe3+/(Fe2+ + Fe3+) ratios are probably due to lower oxygen fugacity in the granulite facies environment. Grade-related colour variations in both minerals were controlled by their Ti/Fe2+ and Fe3+/(Fe2+ + Fe3+ ratios. The relatively low Alvi contents of the hornblendes suggest low- to moderate-pressure metamorphism.Variations in element distribution coefficients are related to variations in mineral compositions rather than metamorphic grade. Thus KD(Aliv ?Si) is related to the Aliv andedenite alkali contents of the hornblendes, KD(Fe2+ ?Mg) to the distributions of Aliv ?Si and Alvi + Ti + Fe3+, KD(Mn) to the Mn contents of both minerals, and KD(Alvi) to the Alvi contents of the biotites.  相似文献

The phase relations of pyroxenes, amphiboles and associated minerals in metamorphic rocks of the Franciscan Complex can be graphically depicted on a ternary diagram which has at its apices the metamorphic clinopyroxene end members, viz NaAl-NaFe3+-Ca(Fe2+, Mg). Phases are plotted by projection from a constant subassemblage of minerals. This analysis allows interpretation of the effects of pressure, temperature, bulk rock composition and fluid composition on stability of minerals within the Franciscan.Pyroxenes in meta-igneous rocks and metagraywackes have a limited compositional range and fall into two groups: the omphacites, with 50±5% diopside +hedenbergite component; and the jadeitic pyroxenes with 10±5% diopside+hedenbergite. Pyroxenes intermediate between these two groups are unstable relative to assemblages containing Na-amphibole+other minerals.Coexisting pyroxenes and amphiboles in eclogites and associated coarse blueschists comprise equilibrium assemblages, and the proportion of pyroxene to amphibole is a function of rock composition. Eclogites are stable at higher temperature than regionally developed fine-grained greenstones and blueschists in the Franciscan, and at higher pressure than amphibolites. X H2O fluid is not an important factor in the stability of Franciscan eclogite relative to amphibolite.  相似文献

Summary The distribution of Fe2+ and Mg between coexisting phengite and chlorite has been examined in a suite of low-grade rocks. The distribution coefficientK D(Mg) is influenced in part by the content of tetrahedral or octahedral Al of either chlorite or phengite and in part byX Mg of phengite. The tie lines for the mineral pairs on a SAF triangular diagram show a subparallel trend.
Elementarverteilung zwischen koexistierenden Phengit und Chlorit aus niedrig metamorphen Gesteinen von der Insel Skiros, Griechenland
Zusammenfassung Es wird untersucht, wie Fe2+ und Mg zwischen koexistierenden Phengit und Chlorit aus einer Folge schwach metamorpher Gesteine verteilt sind. Der VerteilungskoeffizientK D(Mg) wird teils durch den Gehalt an tetraedrischem bzw. oktaedrischem Al in Chlorit oder in Phengit und teils durch dasX Mg vom Phengit beeinflußt. Die Konoden zwischen den Mineralpaaren in einem SAF-Dreieckdiagramm zeigen subparallelen Verlauf.

Ninety-seven mineral phases consisting of ten chloritoids, fifteen epidotes, sixteen garnets, four sphenes, seven rutiles, seven pyroxenes, thirteen blue amphiboles, two green amphiboles, eleven phengites, two paragonites, a mariposite, seven chlorites, and two specimens of albite were obtained from the metamorphic rocks of Île de Groix, and their chemical, physical, optical and X-ray properties determined. The chloritoids are all optically positive, monoclinic polymorphs with large 2V, moderate refractive indices and characterized by high densities. Their fluorine contents have been used to propose a new upper limit for OHF substitution in the chloritoid structure, suggesting that partial pressure of fluorine might modify the stability of chloritoids from that determined in pure H2O. The epidotes belong to the Al-Fe epidote series and are epidote sensu stricto. The almandine-rich garnets and the chloromelanites are metastable relics in the glaucophane schists. The grossular contents of the calcareous schist garnets are believed to have become depressed under high CO2 pressure and the low Tschermak's contents of the pyroxenes are to be explained by equilibria involving epidote at high and low temperature when the Tschermak's components will break down to epidote group minerals. The sphenes contain appreciable amounts of combined water, fluorine substituting for oxygen and aluminium substituting for silicon and titanium. The presence of H3O+ is suspected in a specimen of blue amphibole. The barroisite has a composition between glaucophane and hornblende. On account of its high Fe3+ content it is believed to have formed under higher P O 2 than the blue amphiboles. The paragonites which occur in the ohloritoid veins are unstable in the potassium-rich aluminous schists. The phengites show a tendency towards sericitic composition due to post-glaucophanisation readjustments under the lower pressure conditions of the greenschist facies. Some of the Fe3+ contents of the chlorites are interpreted as due to oxidation of ferrous iron, e.g. 2 [Fe(OH)2]2FeOOH + H2. The minerals show strong chemical control of the host rock and their Mn contents are directly related to those of the minerals from which they have evolved through retrogression.Chloritoids and epidotes that are not associated with garnets contain higher amounts of manganese; similarly, the two blue amphiboles with the highest FeMg ratios were obtained from rocks in which garnet has not appeared. It is therefore believed that ottrelite and piemontite would be stable only at the lowest subfacies of the greenschist facies. Also, the ironrich amphiboles must have evolved from low-grade iron-aluminium chlorites, since on the appearance of garnet in a schist iron-aluminium chlorites react with quartz to give almandine and Mg-rich chlorites. The Fe2+Mg ratios of the blue amphiboles therefore reflect the grade of the original schist in which the minerals formed.  相似文献

Summary Microprobe analyses and X-ray crystal structure refinement of terrestrial and lunar olivines are compared, in order to investigate the influence of temperature and composition on Mg-Fe2+ distribution between M1 and M2 sites.Quenching and heating experiments show that, for the same composition, a temperature increase causes an increase in the (Fe2+/Mg)M1/(Fe2+/Mg)M2 ratio (KD. Such experiments also demonstrate that the intracrystalline Mg-Fe2+ ordering in Ml and M2 sites is very fast and the calculated KD values therefore depend on cooling rate (C.R.), i.e., high KD values = high CR.. On the other hand, for the same cooling rate and temperature, Fe-rich olivine has a KD value higher than that of Mg-rich olivine, since Fe2+ is preferentially ordered in M1 site. Oxygen fugacity variations (QFI and QFM buffers) do not appreciably influence KD.The closure temperature of Mg-Fe2+ ordering between M1-M2 sites of olivine is probably lower than that estimated for orthopyroxene (c. 550–600°C; Saxena et al., 1989), owing to a lesser degree of non-equivalence between MI and M2 sites. The highest temperature that can be detected by KD values of natural olivines is 700–800 °C.
Einfluß von Temperatur und Zusammensetzung auf die Mg-Fe2+ Verteilung in Olivin
Zusammenfassung Mikrosondenuntersucbungen und Strukturverfeinerungen an terrestrischen und lunaren Olivinen werden verglichen, um den Einfluß von Temperatur und Zusammensetzung auf die Mg-Fe2+ Verteilung in der MI und M2 Position zu untersuchen. Experimentelle Untersuchungen belegen, daß bei gleichbleibender chemischer Zusamensetzung, eine Temperaturzunahme eine Zunahme im KD Verhältnis (Fe2+ /Mg)M1/(Fe2+/M9)M2 bedingt. Diese Experimente zeigen weiters, daß die Ordnung der Mg-Fe2+ Kationen im Gitter in den M 1 und M2 Positionen sehr rasch erfolgt und die berechnete KD Werte daher von der Abkühlungsrate (C.R.) abhängen; z. B. hohe KD-Werte = hohe C. R.Andererseits hat bei gleicher Abkühlungsrate und Temperatur Fe-reicher Olivin einen höheren KD Wert als Mg-reicher Olivin, da Fe2+ bevorzugt in die M1 Position eingebaut wird. änderungen in der Sauerstoff-Fugazität (QFI und QFM Buffer) beeinflussen die KD Werte unwesentlich.Die Schließungstemperaturen für die Mg-Fe2+ Ordnung zwischen der M1 und M2 Position in Olivin sind wahrscheinlich niedriger als die von Orthopyroxen (ca. 550–600°C;Saxena et al., 1989); dies wird mit einem niedrigeren Grad an non-equivalence von Ml und M2 erklärt. Die höchsten Temperaturen, die an Hand der KD-Werte an natürlichen Olivinen bestimmt wurden liegen bei 700–800°C.
