对扬子地块西缘康滇裂谷北段的丹巴变质玄武岩进行了系统的岩石学、元素-Nd同位素地球化学研究,结果表明该岩石为碱性玄武岩,样品相对富MgO、富TiO2,Mg#值介于0.51~0.59之间.稀土总量较高,轻重稀土分馏较明显,Th、Nb、Ta、Zr、Hf和LREE等不相容元素富集,Y和HREE明显亏损,地球化学特征与洋岛玄武岩(OIB)类似.岩浆形成于板内裂谷环境,起源于类似OIB的地幔源区,并在上升过程中受到了大陆岩石圈地幔(SCLM)物质不同程度的混染,同时还可能有少量下地壳物质的混染.样品在岩石化学上表现出地幔柱岩浆作用的痕迹,很可能与导致Rodinia超级大陆裂解的新元古代地幔柱事件有关.  相似文献

惠民凹陷渐新世玄武岩地球化学特征及大地构造意义   总被引:8,自引:6,他引:2  
采用主量、微量元素和Sr-Nd同位素地球化学研究手段和大地构造分析方法,旨在阐明惠民凹陷渐新世玄武岩地球化学特征和揭示渤海湾盆地形成的地球动力学背景。研究认为:渐新世沙河街组三段玄武岩为碱性橄榄玄武岩;呈轻稀土富集型分布模式,无Eu异常,稀土总量较低(∑REE=109.4~146.8μg/g);大离子亲石元素富集,蛛网图显示负斜率较大的右倾曲线,并有不同程度的Nb-Ta和Sr元素富集、以及Ti和Y元素的轻度亏损,含量较低的不相容元素基本上呈平滑分布;Sr-Nd同位素组成较为均一,玄武岩岩浆主要来自亏损软流圈地幔,同时存在轻微的岩石圈地幔混染作用。综合分析区域地质和地球物理研究成果认为,包括惠民凹陷在内的渤海湾盆地是地幔上隆而造成岩石圈伸展减薄的产物,是太平洋板块向欧亚板块之下俯冲形成的陆内扩张盆地。  相似文献

苏鲁造山带五莲地区岩浆岩元素和同位素地球化学研究   总被引:6,自引:5,他引:6  
对苏鲁造山带五莲地区新元古代和中生代岩浆岩分别进行了主量元素、微量元素、Sr-Nd同位素和氧同位素研究。结果表明,新元古代花岗岩具有显著的LREE富集,高场强元素Nb、Ta、P和Ti负异常。εNd(t)为-12.6--6.9,可能与古元古代老地壳物质再循环有关。锆石δ18O值为-1.02-7.60‰,变化范围较大,近半数样品明显低于典型地幔锆石δ18O 值。新元古代辉长岩具有板内裂谷环境的特征,其εNd(t)在1.6-5.3之间,说明其岩浆起源于亏损地幔,但是经受了一定程度的地壳混染作用。唯一一个辉长岩样品的锆石δ18O值与部分花岗岩锆石δ18O值一样,明显高于典型地幔值,可能是基性岩浆在沿裂谷喷发过程中经历了低温热液蚀变,随后又发生破火山口垮塌,导致蚀变玄武岩在岩浆房重熔而形成高δ18O岩浆。中生代花岗岩和闪长岩表现出明显的高场强元素(Nb、Ta、P和Ti)负异常以及显著的LREE富集。εNd(t)值很低(-19.2 --15.3),同样是由古老地壳物质部分熔融形成。其锆石δ18O变化范围为3.19-6.43‰,大多数样品与典型地幔锆石一样。石英与锆石之间大都达到并保存了氧同位素平衡分馏,而其它矿物(如长石、黑云母和角闪石等)与锆石之间由于受到岩浆期后亚固相热液蚀变而大都表现出明显的氧同位素不平衡分馏。元素和氧同位素特征表明,中生代闪长岩可能是基性下地壳脱水部分熔融并经过结晶分异形成的;花岗岩则可能是由中性下地壳的脱水部分熔融形成的。新元古代花岗岩与中生代花岗岩在微量元素配分模型和Sr-Nd同位素组成上具有十分相似的特征,因此未经历强烈热液蚀变的新元古代花岗质侵入岩可能是中生代花岗岩的原岩。但这些新元古代岩浆岩的锆石δ18O变化范围较大,与中生代岩浆岩相比在流体活动性元素含量上也存在差别,这可能是由于新元古代岩浆岩侵位深度比中生代岩浆岩源区所处深度相对较浅所致。现有的研究结果表明,新元古代岩浆岩的形成与约740-760Ma的Rodinia超大陆裂解有关的裂谷岩浆活动有关,新生地壳物质作为热源启动了热液蚀变,并局部形成了低δ18O岩浆。而中生代岩浆岩则是俯冲陆壳在加厚造山带背景下的部分熔融产物,岩浆源区物质由于所处深度较大没有受到明显的高温大气降水热液蚀变。  相似文献

松潘-甘孜地块的丹巴二叠纪玄武岩(大石包组)具有较高的TiO2含量(>2%)和高的Ti/Y比值(平均519),显示LREE富集、HREE亏损的右倾型稀土配分型式((La/Yb)N=4.2~13.6),εNd(t)=-0.33~2.70,具有洋岛玄武岩(OIB)地球化学特征,形成于大陆板内环境。其源区来自原始地幔始于石榴子石稳定区的低程度部分熔融,岩浆上升过程中有来自地壳物质的加入,因而其不相容元素比值如Zr/Nb(4.41~13.09)、La/Nb(1.03~1.80)和Th/La(0.08~0.18)等,以及初始的87Sr/86Sr比值(0.706008~0.707257)均表现出不同程度的富集特征,岩浆演化早期经历了以辉石、橄榄石为主的分离结晶作用。该套玄武岩的元素-同位素地球化学特征和源区性质类似于峨眉山溢流玄武岩的高钛(HT)系列,因此认为其是峨眉山地幔柱活动的产物,属于峨眉山大火成岩省(ELIP)的一部分。松潘-甘孜地块和扬子西缘晚古生代以前地层的可比性以及峨眉山溢流玄武岩的分布特征显示,松潘-甘孜洋盆伴随着扬子克拉通的裂解而打开,并且可能都与峨眉山地幔柱有关,是地幔柱活动的浅部地质响应。  相似文献

在青藏高原腹地,二叠纪火山岩分布于唐古拉山东段,古地理上位于北羌塘盆地东缘。对唐古拉山东段莫云地区中二叠世栖霞期尕笛考组火山岩的主量元素、微量元素和Sr-Nd同位素进行了分析。岩相学和地球化学指标显示二叠纪火山岩为玄武岩,该套岩石低SiO2、MgO、K2O和Mg#值(0.39~0.48),富Na2O、TFeO、TiO2、P2O5含量,富集LREE和高场强元素(Nb、Ta、Zr、Hf、P、Ti),(La/Yb)N=14.89~23.23,(Gd/Yb)N=2.30~3.58,Eu异常不明显(δEu=0.76~0.99),具有明显的Th正异常和K、Sr负异常,显示与板内碱性玄武岩相似的地球化学特征;同位素组成以低(87Sr/86Sr)i(0.7033~0.7039)、高εNd(t)(+4.2,t=271Ma)为特点,反映岩浆源区既有亏损地幔源(DMM)又有富集地幔源(EMⅠ)的双重属性。岩浆起源可能与地幔柱诱导的软流圈上涌导致含石榴子石橄榄岩的岩石圈地幔部分熔融有关。莫云玄武岩形成于板内伸展环境(初始裂谷),具有主动裂谷作用性质。  相似文献

新疆阿尔泰东部新生代玄武岩的地球化学特征与地质意义   总被引:1,自引:4,他引:1  
新疆阿尔泰东部哈拉乔拉出露有新生代玄武岩,K-Ar 法测得玄武岩的年龄在10~20Ma,地球化学分析结果表明哈拉乔拉玄武岩具有高 TiO_2含量、高钾富碱的特点,属于典型的橄榄玄粗岩系列;强烈富集不相容元素和轻稀土元素,显示出源区富集的特点。(~(87)Sr/~(86)Sr)_i 为0.704432~0.704538,(~(143)Nd/~(144)Nd)_i 为0.512641~0.512779,ε_(Nd)(t)为0.29~1.03,其 Sr-Nd 同位素特征和地球化学特征都与洋岛玄武岩(OIB)相似。La/Nb(0.765~0.823)、Nb/U(35.02~52.01)等不相容元素的比值指示了源区中可能存在少量循环地壳物质。综合对比南天山托云等地区新生代玄武岩,中亚地区的地球化学性质相似的新生代火山岩分布零星,空间上与大型断裂相对应,不应是前人地幔柱成因的观点。本文结合中亚地区古生代地壳的演化特点,提出中亚地区的新生代类 OIB 型玄武岩来源于中亚地区已被改造的富集地幔。  相似文献

高Ti玄武岩成因是峨眉山大火成岩省(ELIP)研究的热点问题。由于高Ti玄武岩地球化学特征在空间上存在差异,其岩石成因尚未达成共识。本文系统收集了峨眉山大火成岩省中高Ti玄武岩地球化学数据以及锆石ID-TIMS U-Pb测年结果,并进行统一处理分析与模拟。研究结果显示,峨眉山大火成岩省形成于约259~258 Ma,高Ti玄武岩在大火成岩省全区均有出露。自西向东,岩石年龄无明显变化规律,厚度逐渐变薄。高Ti玄武岩起源于具有富集地幔特征的地幔柱源区,几乎没有遭受地壳混染,经历了低程度部分熔融作用并可能混入了少量岩石圈地幔物质,发生了以单斜辉石为主的分离结晶作用。峨眉山大火成岩省深部存在一个非对称式的地幔柱,自西向东,高Ti玄武质岩浆起源深度变浅、温度降低,熔融深度和压力随之降低,熔融程度相对增大。模拟表明,源区石榴石相和尖晶石相的熔融程度分别为0.5%~2%和5%,石榴石相熔融比例自西向东由90%减小至40%,而尖晶石相熔融比例由10%增大至60%。  相似文献

提要:扬子地块西缘新元古代岩浆岩分布广泛,目前对其成因和构造背景的认识还存在很大争议。本文报道了川西康滇裂谷北段康定—丹巴地区新元古代基性岩墙的岩石学、元素地球化学和Sm-Nd同位素特征,探讨其岩石成因、岩浆源区性质和岩浆熔融深度。结果表明岩石样品属拉斑系列,形成于板内裂谷环境,岩浆在上升侵位过程中受到了初生岛弧地壳物质不同程度的混染。岩浆起源于亏损地幔源区,是尖晶石地幔橄榄岩部分熔融的产物,很可能与导致Rodinia超级大陆裂解的新元古代地幔柱事件有关。  相似文献

桂西地区位于扬子地块西南缘,越北地块以北。桂西巴马等地出露层状—似层状基性岩(辉绿岩和玄武岩),该地区的基性岩成因对于理解该区构造—岩浆作用具有十分重要的意义。对桂西巴马基性岩进行了岩石学和地球化学研究,对其岩石成因和岩浆源区特征进行了讨论。研究表明,桂西巴马基性岩属于碱性玄武质岩,相对富集轻稀土元素和Nb、Ti等微量元素,与峨眉山大火成岩省高Ti玄武岩相似,说明其与峨眉山地幔柱具有相关性。然而,对比峨眉山高Ti玄武岩,巴马基性岩表现出更高的Ti/Y值。不相容元素比值特征表明,桂西巴马基性岩岩浆演化呈现更高的Nb/Y值等演化趋势。结合Dy/Dy?与Dy/Yb、Ti/Y的协变关系,对桂西基性岩与峨眉山玄武岩岩浆源区中稀土元素的分异特征进行判别,揭示出桂西巴马基性岩和峨眉山高Ti玄武岩具有同源性。然而,巴马基性岩地幔熔融程度更低,可能是峨眉山大火成岩省外带的地幔柱岩浆作用延伸的结果,代表了峨眉山地幔柱高Ti玄武岩母岩浆的特征。  相似文献

华南板块西南缘、越北地块以北桂西那坡县城以西及西南一带发育一套晚二叠世基性岩,由层状、似层状次火山岩相辉绿岩、辉绿玢岩及球状岩组成。根据岩石地球化学特征,那坡基性岩可划分为高Ti(TiO_22.8%和Ti/Y500)和低Ti两部分。高Ti基性岩为碱性玄武岩,而低Ti基性岩为拉斑玄武岩。与低Ti基性岩相比,高Ti基性岩整体具有相对较低的SiO_2、MgO和较高的FeO_t、P_2O_5,轻、重稀土分馏明显,富集大离子亲石元素(LILE)和高场强元素(HFSE),显示出似OIB地球化学特征,与峨眉山高Ti玄武岩具高度亲缘性;低Ti基性岩具有相对较高的SiO_2、MgO和较低的FeO_t、P_2O_5,稀土配分曲线较平坦,富集LILE,严重亏损HFSE(Nb、Ta),与岛弧玄武岩地球化学特征类似。从微量元素比值及相关图解对岩浆源区和构造环境判别,那坡高Ti基性岩来自富集OIB地幔源区,而低Ti基性岩兼具OIB和岛弧岩浆源区的过渡特征。结合岩石地球化学特征及区域地质背景,认为那坡高Ti基性岩可能为峨眉山地幔柱岩浆作用的产物,低Ti基性岩为古特提斯俯冲与峨眉山地幔柱共同作用的产物,揭示了那坡地区晚二叠世同时受到峨眉山地幔柱和古特提斯俯冲相互作用的影响。  相似文献

海南岛陆缘扩张带蓬莱地区新生代玄武岩中捕获大量尖晶石二辉橄榄岩和方辉橄榄岩幔源包体。激光剥蚀等离子体质谱(LA-ICP-MS)分析结果表明,蓬莱地幔橄榄岩含有三种不同地球化学特征的单斜辉石(Cpx):(1)a类单斜辉石Mg~#=92.3~93.4,来自富集Cpx的二辉橄榄岩,具有极低的LREE和不相容元素含量,HREE平坦,Th、U、La、Sr正异常,经历了7%~10%的尖晶石相部分熔融,仅受到极低程度强不相容元素(Th、U、La、Sr)初期富集交代作用;(2)b类单斜辉石Mg~#=89.9~90.3,来自较富集Cpx的二辉橄榄岩,具有中等的LREE和LILE含量,HREE平坦,微量元素蛛网图上显示Th、U正异常,Rb、Ba、Nb、Ta、Sr、Ti负异常,经历4%~5%的尖晶石相部分熔融,可能受到了含LREE和Th、U等不相容元素的硅酸盐熔体交代;(3)c类单斜辉石Mg~#=91.4~92.8,来自贫Cpx的二辉橄榄岩和方辉橄榄岩,具有富集的LREE和LILE含量,HREE弱分异,微量元素蛛网图上显示Th、U正异常及强烈的Nb、Ta、Ti负异常,经历了8%~20%的尖晶石相部分熔融,其交代熔体可能是来自源区有石榴子石残留的碳酸盐熔体。全岩主、微量元素及模拟计算结果表明,这些幔源包体的主量元素主要受部分熔融程度影响,并且方辉橄榄岩经历的部分熔融程度大于二辉橄榄岩。地幔橄榄岩的Sr-Nd同位素组成表明该区具有MORB-OIB型亏损地幔特征。此外,蓬莱部分地幔橄榄岩包体显示正斜率的HREE分异特征((Gd/Yb)_N=0.4~0.7),暗示该区地幔经历了源自石榴子石稳定区的变压熔融,总体熔融程度为18%以上,指示了较高的地幔潜能温度。综合前人对海南岛新生代玄武岩最新研究成果,我们认为海南地幔柱可能为该区软流圈地幔置换古老岩石圈地幔提供了热源,导致了区域岩石圈地幔的破坏,从而引起包括地幔柱本身、软流圈和富集岩石圈的熔融。岩石圈地幔性质的改变和不均一性可能是海南岛陆缘扩张带新生代岩石圈减薄的主要动力学机制。  相似文献

Subduction zone geochemistry   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Crustal recycling at convergent plate boundaries is essential to mantle heterogeneity.However,crustal signatures in the mantle source of basaltic rocks above subduction zones were primarily incorporated in the form of liquid rather than solid phases.The physicochemical property of liquid phases is determined by the dehydration behavior of crustal rocks at the slab-mantle interface in subduction channels.Because of the significant fractionation in incompatible trace elements but the full inheritance in radiogenic isotopes relative to their crustal sources,the production of liquid phases is crucial to the geochemical transfer from the subducting crust into the mantle.In this process,the stability of specific minerals in subducting crustal rocks exerts a primary control on the enrichment of given trace elements in the liquid phases.For this reason,geochemically enriched oceanic basalts can be categorized into two types in terms of their trace element distribution patterns in the primitive mantle-normalized diagram.One is island arc basalts(IAB),showing enrichment in LILE,Pb and LREE but depletion in HFSE such as Nb and Ta relative to HREE,The other is ocean island basalts(OIB),exhibiting enrichment in LILE and LREE,enrichment or non-depletion in HFSE but depletion in Pb relative to HREE.In either types,these basalts show the enhanced enrichment of LILE and LREE with increasing their incompatibility relative to normal mid-ocean ridge basalts(MORB).The thermal regime of subduction zones can be categorized into two stages in both time and space,The first stage is characterized by compressional tectonism at low thermal gradients.As a consequence,metamorphic dehydration of the subducting crust prevails at forearc to subarc depths due to the breakdown of hydrous minerals such as mica and amphibole in the stability field of garnet and rutile,resulting in the liberation of aqueous solutions with the trace element composition that is considerably enriched in LILE,Pb and LREE but depleted in HFSE and HREE relative to normal MORB.This provides the crustal signature for the mantle sources of IAB.The second stage is indicated by extensional tectonism at high thermal gradients,leading to the partial melting of metamorphically dehydrated crustal rocks at subarc to postarc depths.This involves not only the breakdown of hydrous minerals such as amphibole,phengite and allanite in the stability field of garnet but also the dissolution of rutile into hydrous melts.As such,the hydrous melts can acquire the trace element composition that is significantly enriched in LILE,HFSE and LREE but depleted in Pb and HREE relative to normal MORB,providing the crustal signature for the mantle sources of OIB.In either case,these liquid phases would metasomatize the overlying mantle wedge peridotite at different depths,generating ultramafic metasomatites such as serpentinized and chloritized peridotites,and olivine-poor pyroxenites and hornblendites.As a consequence,the crustal signatures are transferred by the liquid phases from the subducting slab into the mantle.  相似文献

Based on published data, we reappraise the classification of high-Ti and low-Ti basalt from the Emeishan large igneous province (ELIP) and the correlations between basalts and mafic–ultramafic intrusions. Because of the lack of clear spatial and temporal variations of different types of basalts, we suggest that the basalts in the ELIP cannot be classified into high-Ti and low-Ti groups, by TiO2 contents and/or Ti/Y ratios. The distinctive characteristics of these high-Ti and low-Ti lavas probably result largely from the different fractionating assemblages. Whether or not fractional crystallization of the Fe–Ti oxides occurred probably is the key factor that controls the Ti abundances and Ti/Y ratios in the residual melts, e.g., lavas, although the nature of the mantle sources, variable degrees of partial melting of mantle and crustal contamination also influence the geochemical signatures of the lavas. Therefore, neither Ti abundance nor Ti/Y ratios in basalts can reflect the nature of their mantle source. Moreover, the different types of mafic–ultramafic intrusions in the ELIP cannot simply be attributed to be genetically related special types of basalts, either high-Ti or low-Ti basalts. It is likely that they are merely the cumulus phases, i.e. chamber or conduit of the basaltic lavas. Hence, caution should be exercised in the use of high-Ti or low-Ti basalts as prospecting vectors for ore deposits in the region. Potential implications are proposed that both the Fe–V–Ti oxide and Cu–Ni–(PGE) sulfide mineralization in the ELIP intrusions is largely due to the variable differentiation and crustal contamination during magmatic processes.  相似文献

Previously published platinum group element (PGE) and rare earth element data (REE) from a sample suite of the Palaeogene flood basalts of the East Greenland rifted margin are used to approximate primary magma compositions by numerical models of mantle melting. Both high-Ti and low-Ti basalts are found intercalated in the coastal section “the Sortebre Profile” in central East Greenland, and the apparent lack of mixing between the two series indicates coexistence of two geographically separated melting regions and plumbing systems during continental breakup above the Palaeogene Iceland plume. The lavas show little or no sign of crustal contamination and the limited variation in La/Sm and Cu/Pd ratios can be interpreted to reflect mantle source composition and melting processes. Numerical modelling indicate that the low-Ti series formed by F~20% melting in a columnar melting regime from a slightly depleted upper mantle source with a relatively normal S-content (~180 ppm S). In contrast, the high-Ti series formed by much lower degrees of melting (F~6%) in a spreading-related, triangular melting regime from a relatively S-poor (~100 ppm S) source. The low-Ti suite was S-undersaturated at the stage of melt segregation from a shallow mantle source due to the high degree of melting. In contrast, the high-Ti suite probably formed from a S-poor source where some low degree melt batches were S-saturated at the stage of deep segregation in distal parts of the triangular melting regime. This suite shows a geochemical high pressure garnet-signature and adiabatic decompression could therefore have played a role in keeping the mantle-derived S in solution before Fe-enrichment related to fractional crystallisation also increased the S-capacity of these melts.

We present new geochemical analyses of minerals and whole rocks for a suite of mafic rocks from the crustal section of the Othris Ophiolite in central Greece. The mafic rocks form three chemically distinct groups. Group 1 is characterized by N-MORB-type basalt and basaltic andesite with Na- and Ti-rich clinopyroxenes. These rocks show mild LREE depletion and no HFSE anomalies, consistent with moderate degrees (~15%) of anhydrous partial melting of depleted mantle followed by 30–50% crystal fractionation. Group 2 is represented by E-MORB-type basalt with clinopyroxenes with higher Ti contents than Group 1 basalts. Group 2 basalts also have higher concentrations of incompatible trace elements with slightly lower HREE contents than Group 1 basalts. These chemical features can be explained by ~10% partial melting of an enriched mantle source. Group 3 includes high MgO cumulates with Na- and Ti-poor clinopyroxene, forsteritic olivine, and Cr-rich spinel. The cumulates show strong depletion of HFSE, low HREE contents, and LREE enrichments. These rocks may have formed by olivine accumulation from boninitic magmas. The petrogenesis of the N-MORB-type basalts and basaltic andesites is in excellent agreement with the melting conditions inferred from the MOR-type peridotites in Othris. The occurrence of both N- and E-MORB-type lavas suggests that the mantle generating the lavas of the Othris Ophiolite must have been heterogeneous on a comparatively fine scale. Furthermore, the inferred parental magmas of the SSZ-type cumulates are broadly complementary to the SSZ-type peridotites found in Othris. These results suggest that the crustal section may be genetically related to the mantle section. In the Othris Ophiolite mafic rocks recording magmatic processes characteristic both of mid-ocean ridges and subduction zones occur within close spatial association. These observations are consistent with the formation of the Othris Ophiolite in the upper plate of a newly created intra-oceanic subduction zone.

This study reports major, trace, rare earth and platinum group element compositions of lava flows from the Vempalle Formation of Cuddapah Basin through an integrated petrological and geochemical approach to address mantle conditions, magma generation processes and tectonic regimes involved in their formation. Six flows have been identified on the basis of morphological features and systematic three-tier arrangement of vesicular-entablature-colonnade zones. Petrographically, the studied flows are porphyritic basalts with plagioclase and clinopyroxene representing dominant phenocrystal phases.Major and trace element characteristics reflect moderate magmatic differentiation and fractional crystallization of tholeiitic magmas. Chondrite-normalized REE patterns corroborate pronounced LREE/HREE fractionation with LREE enrichment over MREE and HREE. Primitive mantle normalized trace element abundances are marked by LILE-LREE enrichment with relative HFSE depletion collectively conforming to intraplate magmatism with contributions from sub-continental lithospheric mantle(SCLM) and extensive melt-crust interaction. PGE compositions of Vempalle lavas attest to early sulphur-saturated nature of magmas with pronounced sulphide fractionation, while PPGE enrichment over IPGE and higher Pd/Ir ratios accord to the role of a metasomatized lithospheric mantle in the genesis of the lava flows. HFSEREE-PGE systematics invoke heterogeneous mantle sources comprising depleted asthenospheric MORB type components combined with plume type melts. HFSE-REE variations account for polybaric melting at variable depths ranging from garnet to spinel lherzolite compositional domains of mantle. Intraplate tectonic setting for the Vempalle flows with P-MORB affinity is further substantiated by(i) their origin from a rising mantle plume trapping depleted asthenospheric MORB mantle during ascent,(ii) interaction between plume-derived melts and SCLM,(iii) their rift-controlled intrabasinal emplacement through Archeane Proterozoic cratonic blocks in a subduction-unrelated ocean-continent transition zone(OCTZ). The present study is significant in light of the evolution of Cuddapah basin in the global tectonic framework in terms of its association with Antarctica, plume incubation, lithospheric melting and thinning, asthenospheric infiltration collectively affecting the rifted margin of eastern Dharwar Craton and serving as precursors to supercontinent disintegration.  相似文献

Based on the temporal-spatial distribution and geochemical characteristics, the Emeishan basalts can be divided into two types: high-P2O-TiO2 basalt (HPT) and low-P2O5-TiO2 basalt (LPT), which differ distinctly in geochemistry: the LPTs are characterized by relatively high abundances of MgO, total FeO and P2O5 and compatible elements (Cr, Ni, Sc), and relatively low contents of moderately compatible elements (V, Y, Yb, Co), LREE and other incompatible elements compared with the HPT. On the diagrams of trace element ratios, they are plotted on an approximately linear mixing line between depleted and enriched mantle sources, suggesting that these two types of basalts resulted from interactions of varying degrees between mantle plume and lithospheric mantle containing such volatile-rich minerals as amphibole and apatite. The source region of the LPT involves a smaller proportion of lithospheric components, while that of the HTP has a larger proportion of lithospheric components. Trachyte is generated by pa  相似文献
