The Bleikvassli massive sulfide ore deposit is hosted by Proterozoic pelitic, quartzofeldspathic, and amphibolitic rocks of the Uppermost Allochthon of the Scandinavian Caledonides. Staurolite-garnet-biotite and kyanite-staurolite-biotite assemblages indicate that metamorphism reached the kyanite zone of the amphibolite facies. Geothermobarometry was conducted on rocks in and around the deposit using a variety of silicate and sulfide calibrations. Temperature determinations are most reliant on the garnet-biotite exchange reaction, with analyses obtained from 259 garnet rims and adjacent biotite. Results from nine calibrations of the garnet-biotite geothermometer are considered, but compositional limitations of many calibrations involving high Ca and Mn contents in garnet and AlVI and Ti in biotite make many of the coexisting mineral pairs unsuitable. Average temperatures calculated from the two calibrations that most closely address the garnet-biotite compositions observed at Bleikvassli are 584 °C ± 49 °C and 570 °C ± 40 °C. The application of two calibrations of the garnet-staurolite geothermometer on a limited number of samples yields 581 °C ± 2 °C and 589 °C ± 12 °C, assuming a H2O=0.84, based upon calculations of the modal proportions of gaseous species. Pressure determinations are less constrained. Phengite and plagioclase-biotite-garnet-muscovite geobarometers give average pressures of approximately 5.0 kbar and 8.5 ± 1.2 kbar, respectively. Pressures obtained from the sphalerite-hexagonal pyrrhotite-pyrite barometer average 7.7 ± 1.0 kbar. In consideration of these results, the peak metamorphic conditions at the Bleikvassli deposit are estimated to be 580 °C and 8 kbar. Received: 18 June 1997 / Accepted: 14 May 1998  相似文献

High-temperature peridotite massifs occur as lensoid bodies with high-pressure granulites in the southern Bohemian massif. In lower Austria the peridotites comprise garnet lherzolites lacking primary spinel, rare garnet and garnet-spinel harzburgites, and harzburgites containing Cr-rich primary spinel instead of garnet. These phase assemblages suggest initial high-pressure equilibration and are consistent with results from garnet-orthopyroxene geobarometry indicating equilibration at around 3–3.5 GPa. Maximum temperature estimates obtained on core compositions of coexisting minerals from the peridotites are not higher than ca. 1100 °C. In contrast, pyroxene megacryst compositions, garnet exsolution textures in the garnet pyroxenites, and results from geothermometry indicate much higher original equilibration temperatures in most of the pyroxenites (up to 1400 °C). High temperatures, modal zoning, the occasional presence of Mg-rich garnetites and chemical evidence suggest that the pyroxenites are cumulates which crystallized from low-degree melts derived from the sub-lithospheric mantle. Isothermal interpolation of the high temperatures to an upper mantle adiabat suggests that the melts were derived from a minimum depth of 180–200 km. The formation of small garnet II grains and garnet exsolution lamellae in the pyroxenites and pyroxene megacrysts may reflect isobaric cooling of the cumulates from temperatures above 1400 °C to ca. 1100–1200 °C (at 3–3.5 GPa) to approach the ambient lithospheric isotherm. This model differs from other models in which the formation of garnet II was explained by an increase in pressure during cooling in a subduction zone. Isobaric cooling was followed by near-isothermal decompression from 3–3.5 GPa to 1.5–2 GPa at 1000–1200 °C, as indicated by the increase of Al in pyroxenes near garnet. Further cooling in the spinel lherzolite stability field is indicated by spinel exsolution lamellae in pyroxenes from lherzolites. The formation of symplectites and kelyphites indicate sub-millimetre scale re-equilibration during exhumation in the course of the Carboniferous collision in the Bohemian massif. The peridotite massifs represent fragments of normal (non-cratonic) lithospheric mantle from a Paleozoic convergent plate margin. Received: 22 July 1996 / Accepted 28 February 1997  相似文献

Experiments have been conducted in a peralkaline Ti-KNCMASH system representative of MARID-type bulk compositions to delimit the stability field of K-richterite in a Ti-rich hydrous mantle assemblage, to assess the compositional variation of amphibole and coexisting phases as a function of P and T, and to characterise the composition of partial melts derived from the hydrous assemblage. K-richterite is stable in experiments from 0.5 to 8.0 GPa coexisting with phlogopite, clinopyroxene and a Ti-phase (titanite, rutile or rutile + perovskite). At 8.0 GPa, garnet appears as an additional phase. The upper T stability limit of K-richterite is 1200–1250 °C at 4.0 GPa and 1300–1400 °C at 8.0 GPa. In the presence of phlogopite, K-richterite shows a systematic increase in K with increasing P to 1.03 pfu (per formula unit) at 8.0 GPa/1100 °C. In the absence of phlogopite, K-richterite attains a maximum of 1.14 K pfu at 8.0 GPa/1200 °C. Titanium in both amphibole and mica decreases continuously towards high P with a nearly constant partitioning while Ti in clinopyroxene remains more or less constant. In all experiments below 6.0 GPa ΣSi + Al in K-richterite is less than 8.0 when normalised to 23 oxygens+stoichiometric OH. Rutiles in the Ti-KNCMASH system are characterised by minor Al and Mg contents that show a systematic variation in concentration with P(T) and the coexisting assemblage. Partial melts produced in the Ti-KNCMASH system are extremely peralkaline [(K2O+Na2O)/Al2O3 = 1.7–3.7], Si-poor (40–45 wt% SiO2), and Ti-rich (5.6–9.2 wt% TiO2) and are very similar to certain Ti-rich lamproite glasses. At 4.0 GPa, the solidus is thought to coincide with the K-richterite-out reaction, the first melt is saturated in a phlogopite-rutile-lherzolite assemblage. Both phlogopite and rutile disappear ca. 150 °C above the solidus. At 8.0 GPa, the solidus must be located at T≤1400 °C. At this temperature, a melt is in equilibrium with a garnet- rutile-lherzolite assemblage. As opposed to 4.0 GPa, phlogopite does not buffer the melt composition at 8.0 GPa. The experimental results suggest that partial melting of MARID-type assemblages at pressures ≥4.0 GPa can generate Si-poor and partly ultrapotassic melts similar in composition to that of olivine lamproites.

Summary Retrograde eclogites and serpentinites from the Hochgr?ssen massif, Styria, are parts of the Speik complex in the Austroalpine basement nappes of the Eastern Alps. They are in tectonic contact with pre-Alpine gneisses, amphibolites, and Permo-Triassic quartz phyllites (Rannach Series). The eclogites are derived from ocean-floor basalts with affinities to mid-ocean ridge and back-arc basin basalts. Fresh eclogites are rare and contain omphacite with a maximum of 39 mol% jadeite content, garnet (Py15–19) and amphibole. Retrograde eclogites consist of amphibole and symplectites of Na-poor clinopyroxene (5–8 mol% Jd) + albite ± amphibole. Amphiboles are classified as edenite, pargasite, tschermakite, magnesiohornblende and actinolite. In relatively fresh eclogite, edenite is a common amphibole and texturally coexists with omphacite and garnet. An average temperature of 700 °C was obtained for eclogite facies metamorphism using garnet-pyroxene thermometry. A minimum pressure of 1.5 GPa is indicated by the maximum jadeite content in omphacite. Thermobarometric calculations using the TWEEQ program for amphibole in textural equilibrium with omphacite and garnet give pressures of 1.8–2.2 GPa at 700 °C. The equilibrium assemblage of Na-poor clinopyroxene, albite, amphibole and zoisite in the symplectites gives a pressure of about 0.6–0.8 GPa at 590–640 °C. 40Ar/39Ar radiometric dating of edenitic amphibole in textural equilibrium with omphacite gave a plateau age of 397.3 ± 7.8 Ma, and probably indicates retrograde cooling through the closure temperature for amphibole (∼500 °C). The age of the high-pressure metamorphism thus must be pre-Variscan and points to one of the earliest metamorphic events in the Austroalpine nappes known to date.

Summary Supra-solidus phase relations at temperatures and pressures ranging from 800 to 1700 °C and 2 to 6.4 GPa have been determined experimentally for three silica-rich lamproites: hyalo-leucite phlogopite lamproite (Oscar, West Kimberley); sanidine richterite lamproite (Cancarix, Murcia-Almeria); and phlogopite transitional madupitic lamproite (Middle Table Mountain, Wyoming). All samples have extended melting intervals (500–600 °C). Bulk composition has a significant control on the nature of the initial liquidus phases, with orthopyroxene occurring at low pressures (<4 GPa) in the relatively calcium-poor Oscar and Cancarix lamproites. At higher pressure (>6 GPa) orthopyroxene is replaced by garnet plus clinopyroxene as near-liquidus phases in the Oscar lamproite and by orthopyroxene plus clinopyroxene in the Cancarix sample. Clinopyroxene is a near-liquidus phase at all pressures in the Middle Table Mountain lamproite. Near-solidus phase assemblages at high pressure (>5 GPa) are: clinopyroxene + phlogopite + coesite + rutile + garnet (Oscar); clinopyroxene + garnet + coesite + K–Ti-silicate (Cancarix); clinopyroxene + phlogopite + apatite + K–Ti-silicate (Middle Table Mountain). In all compositions olivine is never found as a liquidus phase at any of the temperatures or pressures studied here. The phase relationships are interpreted to suggest that silica-rich lamproites cannot be derived by the partial melting of lherzolitic sources. Their genesis is considered to involve high degrees of partial melting of ancient metasomatic veins within a harzburgitic-lherzolitic lithospheric substrate mantle. The veins are considered in their mineralogy to be similar to the experimentally-observed, high pressure, near-solidus phase assemblages. The composition of silica-rich primary lamproite magmas differs between cratons as a consequence of differing mineralogical modes of the source veins and different relative contributions from the veins and wall-rocks to the partial melts.

Experiments with peridotite minerals in simple (MgO–Al2O3–SiO2,CaO–MgO–SiO2 and CaO–MgO–Al2O3–SiO2)and natural systems were conducted at 1300–1500°Cand 6–10 GPa using a multi-anvil apparatus. The experimentsin simple systems demonstrated consistency with previous lowerpressure experiments in belt and piston–cylinder set-ups.The analysis of spatial variations in pyroxene compositionswithin experimental samples was used to demonstrate that pressureand temperature variations within the samples were less than0·4 GPa and 50°C. Olivine capsules were used in natural-systemexperiments with two mineral mixtures: SC1 (olivine + high-Alorthopyroxene + high-Al clinopyroxene + spinel) and J4 (olivine+ low-Al orthopyroxene + low-Al clinopyroxene + garnet). Theexperiments produced olivine + orthopyroxene + garnet ±clinopyroxene assemblages, occasionally with magnesite and carbonate-richmelt. Equilibrium compositions were derived by the analysisof grain rims and evaluation of mineral zoning. They were comparedwith our previous experiments with the same starting mixturesat 2·8–6·0 GPa and the results from simplesystems. The compositions of minerals from experiments withnatural mixtures show smooth pressure and temperature dependencesup to a pressure of 8 GPa. The experiments at 9 and 10 GPa producedandradite-rich garnets and pyroxene compositions deviating fromthe trends defined by the lower pressure experiments (e.g. higherAl in orthopyroxene and Ca in clinopyroxene). This discrepancyis attributed to a higher degree of oxidation in the high-pressureexperiments and an orthopyroxene–high-P clinopyroxenephase transition at 9 GPa. Based on new and previous resultsin simple and natural systems, a new version of the Al-in-orthopyroxenebarometer is presented. The new barometer adequately reproducesexperimental pressures up to 8 GPa. KEY WORDS: garnet; mineral equilibrium; multi-anvil apparatus; orthopyroxene; geobarometry  相似文献

Partial melting experiments on a San Carlos peridotite were done in a Walker type multi-anvil press at pressures from 5 to 12.5 GPa. Experiments were done in the presence of a COH-fluid and at oxygen fugacity controlled by the Fe–FeO buffer. Olivine, clinopyroxene, garnet and orthopyroxene are stable in all but the highest temperature 10 GPa experiments where olivine and garnet coexist, and the highest temperature 5 GPa experiments where olivine is the single crystalline phase. The solidus at 5 GPa was found to be at approximately 1,200°C and the liquidus was estimated to be at 1,325°C, which is ∼500°C lower than has been reported for dry melting of peridotite. The aluminum concentration of the melts decreases with increasing melt fraction and decreases also with increasing pressure. At 5 GPa the melts have a CaO/Al2O3-ratio of 0.85–1.0, which is similar to that of undepleted komatiites; major element concentrations are also identical to those of undepleted komatiites such as the Munro komatiites. At 10 and 12.5 GPa the partial melts have CaO/Al2O3-ratios above 1.5 and major element composition almost identical to aluminum depleted komatiites such as the Barberton komatiites. We therefore conclude that in the presence of a reducing COH-fluid both aluminum-depleted and -undepleted komatiites could have formed at temperatures much lower than generally accepted.  相似文献

The partitioning of Ni between olivine and garnet in two multi-component compositions was studied as a function of temperature and pressure in a 6–8 type multi-anvil apparatus. Weighted least squares regression of the experimental results for both compositions give a temperature dependence for Ni partitioning between olivine (Ol) and garnet (Gt) of the form: T=–10210(±114)/[lnD Gt/Ol Ni –3.59(±67)] where DGt/Ol/Ni=Ni content of Gt/Ni content of olivine (by weight) and Tis in Kelvin. The pressure effect on Ni exchange between olivine and garnet is estimated to be 0.13 J/bar, and should therefore have a negligible effect on the geothermometer, as is demonstrated in the experiments. The experimentally derived Ni in Gt geothermometer is in agreement with an extant empirical version between 1100 to 900°C, but the two thermometers produce significantly different results outside of this temperature range.  相似文献

A precise olivine-augite Mg-Fe-exchange geothermometer   总被引：4，自引：1，他引：4  
 Olivine and augite that were experimentally equilibrated in the temperature interval 1175–1080°C at 1 bar in natural basaltic and andesitic bulk compositions are used to calibrate an Mg-Fe2+ cation-exchange geothermometer. Within its temperature interval of experimental calibration, and over a broad range in olivine Mg/Fe ratio, the geothermometer has a standard error of ±6°C. In compositionally simpler synthetic systems, the same calibration retrieves appropriate experimental temperatures up to at least 1250°C. In application to intermediate and felsic volcanic rocks erupted at ∼1080 –800°C (below the range of experimental calibration), calculated olivine-augite temperatures are in good agreement with Fe-Ti oxide thermometry in the same samples. These results encourage confidence in the olivine-augite geothermometer over at least the 800–1250°C interval at low pressures. Sparse experimental data up to 1250°C at higher pressures for olivine + augite in the assemblage olivine + plagioclase + augite ± pigeonite or orthopyroxene suggest that the low-pressure calibration recovers experimental temperatures without systematic bias to pressures of 10 kbar. Examples illustrate applications to determining igneous equilibration temperatures in holocrystalline extrusive and intrusive rocks, and to estimating intratelluric H2O content dissolved in magmas.

Summary Mantle-derived xenoliths from Baarley in the Quaternary West Eifel volcanic field contain six distinct varieties of glass in veins, selvages and pools. 1) Silica-undersaturated glass rich in zoned clinopyroxene microlites that forms jackets around and veins within the xenoliths. This glass is compositionally similar to groundmass glass in the host basanite. 2) Silica-undersaturated alkaline glass that contains microlites of Cr-diopside, olivine and spinel associated with amphibole in peridotites. This glass locally contains corroded primary spinel and phlogopite. 3) Silica-undersaturated glass associated with diopside, spinel ± olivine and rh?nite microlites in partly to completely broken down amphibole grains in clinopyroxenites. 4) Silica-undersaturated to silica-saturated, potassic glass in microlite-rich fringes around phlogopite grains in peridotite. 5) Silica-undersaturated potassic glass in glimmerite xenoliths. 6) Silica-rich glass around partly dissolved orthopyroxene crystals in peridotites. Geothermometry of orthopyroxene–clinopyroxene pairs (P = 1.5 GPa) gives temperatures of ∼ 850 °C for unveined xenoliths to 950–1020 °C for veined xenoliths. Clinopyroxene – melt thermobarometry shows that Cr-diopside – type 2 glass pairs in harzburgite formed at 1.4 to 1.1 GPa and ∼ 1250 °C whereas Cr-diopside – type 2 glass pairs in wehrlite formed at 0.9 to 0.7 GPa and 1120–1200 °C. This bimodal distribution in pressure and temperature suggests that harzburgite xenoliths may have been entrained at greater depth than wehrlite xenoliths. Glass in the Baarley xenoliths has three different origins: infiltration of an early host melt different in composition from the erupted host basanite; partial melting of amphibole; reaction of either of these melts with xenolith minerals. The composition of type 1 glass suggests that jackets are accumulations of relatively evolved host magma. Mass balance modelling of the type 2 glass and its microlites indicates that it results from breakdown of disseminated amphibole and reaction of the melt with the surrounding xenolith minerals. Type 3 glass in clinopyroxenite xenoliths is the result of breakdown of amphibole at low pressure. Type 4 and 5 glass formed by reaction between phlogopite and type 2 melt or jacket melt. Type 6 glass associated with orthopyroxene is due to the incongruent dissolution of orthopyroxene by any of the above mentioned melts. Compositional gradients in xenolith olivine adjacent to type 2 glass pools and jacket glass can be modelled as Fe–Mg interdiffusion profiles that indicate melt – olivine contact times between 0.5 and 58 days. Together with the clinopyroxene – melt thermobarometry calculations these data suggest that the glass (melt) formed over a short time due to decompression melting of amphibole and infiltration of evolved host melt. None of the glass in these xenoliths can be directly related to metasomatism or any other process that occurred insitu in the mantle.

Calibrations are presented for an independent set of four equilibria between end-members of garnet, hornblende, plagioclase and quartz. Thermodynamic data from a large internally-consistent thermodynamic dataset are used to determine the ΔG° of the equilibria. Then, with the known mixing properties of garnet and plagioclase, the non-ideal mixing in amphibole is derived from a set of 74 natural garnet–amphibole–plagioclase–quartz assemblages crystallised in the range 4–13 kbar and 500–800 °C. The advantage of using known thermodynamic data to calculate ΔG° is that correlated variations of composition with temperature and pressure are not manifested in fictive derived entropies and volumes, but are accounted for with non-ideal mixing terms. The amphibole is modelled using a set of ten independent end-members whose mixing parameters are in good agreement with the small amount of data available in the literature. The equilibria used to calibrate the amphibole non-ideal mixing reproduce pressures and temperatures with average absolute deviations of 1.1 kbar and 35 °C using an average pressure–temperature approach, and 0.8 kbar with an average pressure approach. The mixing data provide not only a basis for thermobarometry involving additional phases, but also for calculation of phase diagrams in complex amphibole-bearing systems.

Summary An experimental study on the phase relationships of three potassium-rich ultramafic rocks from the Damodar Valley, Gondawana basins, has been performed under upper mantle P–T conditions (1.0–2.5 GPa, 700–1200 °C). The Mohanpur lamproite and Satyanarayanpur minette, both from the Raniganj basins, have been investigated with the addition of 15 wt% H2O. No water was added in the experiments done on an olivine minette from the Jarangdih coal mine, Bokaro Basin, which originally contains 15 wt% CO2 and 2.86 wt% H2O. In all cases, olivine is the liquidus phase followed by phlogopite. The subsolidus assemblage for the three rocks is a phlogopite-bearing harzburgite, associated with apatite, Mg-ilmenite and carbonates for the Jarangdih rock; apatite, chromian spinel and carbonates and priderite (only between 1.0 and 1.2 GPa) in the case of the Mohanpur lamproite, and finally apatite, chromian spinel, rutile, and carbonate in the Satyanarayanpur sample. Although orthopyroxene is absent in the natural potassium-rich ultramafic rocks, its presence in the run products of the Jarangdih rock is possibly related to a reaction between olivine and a CO2-bearing fluid phase. The presence of orthopyroxene in the run products of Mohanpur and Satyanarayanpur rocks may be due to a reaction between K-feldspar, olivine and a vapour phase to produce phlogopite and orthopyroxene. On the basis of present experimental investigation and isotopic studies made by previous investigators, it has been suggested that these K-rich rocks have crystallized from melts derived by vein-plus-wall-rock melting of a phlogopite-bearing harzburgite source rock.

Summary In the Kutná Hora Complex, the Běstvina Formation, which is similar to Gf?hl granulite, contains eclogite that has escaped widespread retrograde recrystallization. The eclogite assemblage, garnet + omphacite + quartz + rutile ± plagioclase, yields an estimate for peak metamorphic conditions of 18–20 kbar and 835–935 °C, which is comparable to that determined from felsic granulite, 14–20 kbar and 900–1000 °C. Garnet in eclogite exhibits both prograde and retrograde compositional zoning, from which constraints on thermal history of the Gf?hl terrane can be derived by diffusion modelling. At 900 °C, a garnet grain of 800–1000 μm radius would homogenize in 7.5–11.7 million years, but the existence of compositional gradients on a length scale of 100–200 μm suggests that the duration of peak metamorphism may have been limited to ∼500,000 years. Diffusion modelling of retrograde zoning in garnet yields a cooling rate of 150–100 °C/m.y. for a radius of 800–1000 μm and initial temperature of 900 °C. The relatively brief duration of high-pressure/high-temperature metamorphism and rapid cooling and exhumation of the Gf?hl terrane may be a consequence of lithospheric delamination during Early Carboniferous collision of Bohemia (Teplá-Barrandia) and Moldanubia (Franke, 2000).  相似文献

Summary A garnet peridotite lens from Monte Duria (Adula nappe, Central Alps, Northern Italy) contains porphyroblastic garnet and pargasitic amphibole and reached peak metamorphic conditions of ∼830 C, ∼2.8 GPa. A first stage of near isothermal decompression to pressures <2.0 GPa is characterised by domains where fine grained spinel, clinopyroxene, orthopyroxene and amphibole form. The newly formed amphibole contains elevated levels of fluid mobile elements such as Rb, Ba and Pb indicating that recrystallization was assisted by infiltration of a crustal-derived fluid. Further decompression and cooling to ∼720 °C, 0.7–1.0 GPa associated with limited fluid influx is documented by the formation of orthopyroxene-spinel-amphibole symplectites around garnet. Zircon separated from this garnet peridotite exhibits two distinct zones. Domain 1 displays polygonal oscillatory zoning and high trace element contents. It contains clinopyroxene and amphibole inclusions with the same composition as the same minerals formed during the spinel peridotite equilibration, indicating that this domain formed under sub-solidus conditions during decompression and influx of crustal fluids. Domain 2 has no zoning and much lower trace element contents. It replaces domain 1 and is likely related to zircon recrystallization during the formation of the symplectites. SHRIMP dating of the two domains yielded ages of 34.2 ± 0.2 and 32.9 ± 0.3 Ma, respectively, indicating fast exhumation of the peridotite within the spinel stability field. We suggest that the Duria garnet peridotite originates from the mantle wedge above the tertiary subduction of the European continental margin and that it was assembled to the country rock gneisses between 34 and 33 Ma.

This report considers experimental studies of the gravitation fractionating of xenocrysts (diamond, garnet, and olivine) in kimberlite magma at 4.0 GPa and 1400°C. The values obtained (0.6–0.7 m/h for 0.3-mm diamond crystals, 0.36 m/h for garnet grains, and 0.6–0.29 m/h for olivine grains) point to a high rate of xenocryst sinking in the ultralow-viscous kimberlite magma (as high as 1 m/h and more, depending on the densities and grain sizes of minerals). A high rate of xenocryst sinking in kimberlite magma results in the impossibility of preservation of heterogeneity in these melts for a sufficiently long time.  相似文献

A temperature–time path was constructed for high-temperature low-pressure (HT–LP) migmatites of the Bayerische Wald, internal zone of the Variscan belt, Germany. The migmatites are characterised by prograde biotite dehydration melting, peak metamorphic conditions of approximately 850 °C and 0.5–0.7 GPa and retrograde melt crystallisation at 800 °C. The time-calibration of the pressure–temperature path is based on U–Pb dating of single zircon and monazite grains and titanite separates, on 40Ar/39Ar ages obtained by incremental heating experiments on hornblende separates, single grains of biotite and K-feldspar, and on 40Ar/39Ar spot fusion ages of biotite determined in situ from sample sections. Additionally, crude estimates of the duration of peak metamorphism were derived from garnet zoning patterns, suggesting that peak temperatures of 850 °C cannot have prevailed much longer than 2.5 Ma. The temperature–time paths obtained for two areas approximately 30 km apart do not differ from each other considerably. U–Pb zircon ages reflect crystallisation from melt at 850–800 °C at 323 Ma (southeastern area) and 326 Ma (northwestern area). The U–Pb ages of monazite mainly coincide with those from zircon but are complicated by variable degrees of inheritance. The preservation of inherited monazite and the presence of excess 206Pb resulting from the incorporation of excess 230Th in monazite formed during HT–LP metamorphism suggest that monazite ages in the migmatites of the Bayerische Wald reflect crystallisation from melt at 850–800 °C and persistence of older grains at these temperatures during a comparatively short thermal peak. The U–Pb ages of titanite (321 Ma) and 40Ar/39Ar ages of hornblende (322–316 Ma) and biotite (313–309 Ma) reflect cooling through the respective closure temperatures of approximately 700, 570–500 and 345–310 °C published in the literature. Most of the feldspars' ages (305–296 Ma) probably record cooling below 150–300 °C, while two grains most likely have higher closure temperatures. The temperature–time paths are characterised by a short thermal peak, by moderate average cooling rates and by a decrease in cooling rates from 100 °C/my at temperatures between 850–800 and 700 °C to 11–16 °C/my at temperatures down to 345–310 °C. Further cooling to feldspar closure for Ar was probably even slower. The lack of decompressional features, the moderate average cooling rates and the decline of cooling rates with time are not easily reconciled with a model of asthenospheric heating, rapid uplift and extension due to lithospheric delamination as proposed elsewhere. Instead, the high peak temperatures at comparatively shallow crustal levels along with the short thermal peak require external advective heating by hot mafic or ultramafic material.

Pressure–temperature conditions of tourmaline breakdown in a metapelite were determined by high-pressure experiments at 700–900°C and 4–6 GPa. These experiments produced an eclogite–facies assemblage of garnet, clinopyroxene, phengite, coesite, kyanite and rare rutile. The modal proportions of tourmaline clearly decreased between 4.5 and 5 GPa at 700°C, between 4 and 4.5 GPa at 800°C, and between 800 and 850°C at 4 GPa, with tourmaline that survived the higher temperature conditions appearing corroded and thus metastable. Decreases in the modal abundance of tourmaline are accompanied by decreasing modal abundance of coesite, and increasing that of clinopyroxene, garnet and kyanite; the boron content of phengite increases significantly. These changes suggest that, with increasing pressure and temperature, tourmaline reacts with coesite to produce clinopyroxene, garnet, kyanite, and boron-bearing phengite and fluid. Our results suggest that: (1) tourmaline breakdown occurs at lower pressures and temperatures in SiO2-saturated systems than in SiO2-undersaturated systems. (2) In even cold subduction zones, subducting sediments should release boron-rich fluids by tourmaline breakdown before reaching depths of 150 km, and (3) even after tourmaline breakdown, a significant amount of boron partitioned into phengite could be stored in deeply subducted sediments.  相似文献

Cation diffusion rates at 690 ± 30 °C have been calculated by inverse modelling of observed manganese (Mn) zonation profiles in 40 garnets from two kyanite-bearing metapelite samples from the High Himalayan Crystalline Series, Zanskar, northwest India. Knowledge of the initial growth profile of Mn in garnet is a pre-requisite for this technique. Following previous workers we model Mn partitioning into growing garnet in terms of a Rayleigh fractionation process, and demonstrate that the Mngarnet:whole rock partition coefficient is 60–100. Three-dimensional zonation profiles were obtained by successively grinding and polishing ∼1 cm slabs of each sample at 0.1–0.2 mm intervals and analysing the garnets at each stage, thus ensuring that core sections were measured. The diffusion model assumes that garnet has a spherical geometry and behaves as a closed system, and simulates diffusive modification of the hypothetical Mn Rayleigh growth profile for each garnet. The derived measure of the time-integrated diffusion history for each garnet is then combined with radiometric and field-relation constraints for the duration of the Himalayan metamorphic event to calculate cation diffusion rates. The average cation interdiffusion rate calculated for garnets in the two samples examined is (6 ± 3.2) × 10−23 m2s−1. This interdiffusion rate pertains to a temperature of 690 ± 30 °C, which is 0.97 × T PEAK, the peak temperature conditions experienced by the samples estimated using standard thermobarometric techniques. Garnet compositions are Py2–17Alm65–77Gro6–16Sp1–17. These new diffusion data are consistent with, and more precise than, existing high-temperature (>1000 °C) experimentally determined diffusion data, although some uncertainties remain difficult to constrain. Qualitative comparison between diffusively modified Mn growth profiles in garnets from the Scottish Dalradian and the Himalayan garnets suggests that the duration of metamorphism affecting the Dalradian garnets was 10–20 times longer than that endured by the Himalayan garnets.

Metabasites with eclogite facies relics occur in northern Sardinia as massive to strongly foliated lenses or boudins embedded within low- to medium-grade rocks (Anglona) and migmatites (NE Sardinia). U–Pb zircon dating yielded 453 ± 14, 457 ± 2 and 460 ± 5 Ma as the protolith ages; 400 ± 10 and 403 ± 4 Ma have been interpreted as the ages of the HP event and 352 ± 3 and 327 ± 7 Ma as the ages of the main Variscan retrograde events. A pre-eclogite stage is documented by the occurrence of tschermakite, zoisite relics within garnet porphyroblasts (Punta de li Tulchi) and an edenite–andesine inclusion within a relict kyanite porphyroblast (Golfo Aranci). Four main metamorphic stages have been distinguished in the eclogite evolution: (1) eclogite stage, revealed by the occurrence of armoured omphacite relics within garnet porphyroblasts. The Golfo Aranci eclogites also include kyanite, Mg-rich garnet and pargasite; (2) granulite stage, producing orthopyroxene and clinopyroxene–plagioclase symplectites replacing omphacite. At Golfo Aranci, the symplectitic rims around relict kyanite consist of sapphirine, anorthite, corundum and spinel; (3) amphibolite stage, leading to the formation of amphibole–plagioclase kelyphites between garnet porphyroblasts and pyroxene–plagioclase symplectites and to the growth of cummingtonite on orthopyroxene. Tschermakite to Mg-hornblende, plagioclase, cummingtonite, ilmenite, titanite and biotite are coexisting phases; (4) greenschist to sub-greenschist stage, defined by the appearance of actinolite, chlorite, epidote ss, titanite, sericite and prehnite. The following P–T ranges have been estimated for the different stages. Eclogite stage 550–700°C; 1.3–1.7 GPa; granulite stage 650–900°C; 0.8–1.2 GPa, clustering in the range 1.0–1.2 GPa; amphibolite stage 550–740°C; 0.3–0.7 GPa; greenschist stage 300–400°C; 0.2–0.3 GPa. Comparable ranges characterise the other Variscan massifs in Europe; eclogite stage: T = 530–800°C; P from 0.7–1.1 to 1.7 ± 0.3 GPa; granulite stage T = 760–870°C and P from 1.1–1.4 to 7.2–9.9 GPa, clustering around 1.0–1.2 GPa. Whole-rock chemistry: Sardinian eclogites are N- to T-MORB; European ones N- to E-MORB or calc-alkaline.  相似文献

 This paper presents mineralogical and textural data as well as thermobarometric calculations on ultramafic high-pressure rocks from the Variscan basement of the Schwarzwald (F.R.G.). The rocks form small isolated bodies within low-pressure / high-temperature gneisses and migmatites. The results of this study constrain contrasting P-T evolutions for four garnet-bearing ultramafic high-pressure rocks. Two magnesian garnet-spinal peridotites sampled near the southern margin of the Central Schwarzwald Gneiss Complex (CSGC) were equilibrated at 670–740° C and 1.4–1.8 GPa. These P-T conditions are similar to those recorded by eclogites intercalated in the same basement unit. Two garnet websterites sampled from the northern part of the CSGC have comparatively low Mg/(Mg+Fe) and low Cr and Ni abundances and are interpreted as former cumulates. These rocks most probably experienced an initial high-temperature stage within the spinel peridotite stability field, followed by re-equilibration at 740–850° C / 3.2–4.3 GPa and subsequent recrystallization at lower pressures. Further petrologic studies have to reveal whether ultramafic high-pressure rocks of the Schwarzwald can generally be assigned to these two groups which are mainly defined by contrasting peak pressures.
