We have studied the chemical zoning of plagioclase phenocrysts from the slow-spreading Mid-Atlantic Ridge and the intermediate-spreading
rate Costa Rica Rift to obtain the time scales of magmatic processes beneath these ridges. The anorthite content, Mg, and
Sr in plagioclase phenocrysts from the Mid-Atlantic Ridge can be interpreted as recording initial crystallisation from a primitive
magma (~11 wt% MgO) in an open system. This was followed by crystal accumulation in a mush zone and later entrainment of crystals
into the erupted magma. The initial magma crystallised plagioclase more anorthitic than those in equilibrium with any erupted
basalt. Evidence that the crystals accumulated in a mush zone comes from both: (1) plagioclase rims that were in equilibrium
with a Sr-poor melt requiring extreme differentiation; and (2) different crystals found in the same thin section having different
histories. Diffusion modelling shows that crystal residence times in the mush were <140 years, whereas the interval between
mush disaggregation and eruption was ≤1.5 years. Zoning of anorthite content and Mg in plagioclase phenocrysts from the Costa
Rica Rift show that they partially or completely equilibrated with a MgO-rich melt (>11 wt%). Partial equilibration in some
crystals can be modelled as starting <1 year prior to eruption but for others longer times are required for complete equilibration.
This variety of times is most readily explained if the mixing occurred in a mush zone. None of the plagioclase phenocrysts
from the Costa Rica Rift that we studied have Mg contents in equilibrium with their host basalt even at their rims, requiring
mixing into a much more evolved magma within days of eruption. In combination these observations suggest that at both intermediate-
and slow-spreading ridges: (1) the chemical environment to which crystals are exposed changes on annual to decadal time scales;
(2) plagioclase crystals record the existence of melts unlike those erupted; and (3) disaggregation of crystal mush zones
appears to precede eruption, providing an efficient mechanism by which evolved interstitial melt can be mixed into erupted
basalts. 相似文献

In order to shed light on upper crustal differentiation of mantle-derived basaltic magmas in a subduction zone setting, we
have determined the mineral chemistry and oxygen and hydrogen isotope composition of individual cumulus minerals in plutonic
blocks from St. Vincent, Lesser Antilles. Plutonic rock types display great variation in mineralogy, from olivine–gabbros
to troctolites and hornblendites, with a corresponding variety of cumulate textures. Mineral compositions differ from those
in erupted basaltic lavas from St. Vincent and in published high-pressure (4–10 kb) experimental run products of a St. Vincent
high-Mg basalt in having higher An plagioclase coexisting with lower Fo olivine. The oxygen isotope compositions (δ18O) of cumulus olivine (4.89–5.18‰), plagioclase (5.84–6.28‰), clinopyroxene (5.17–5.47‰) and hornblende (5.48–5.61‰) and hydrogen
isotope composition of hornblende (δD = −35.5 to −49.9‰) are all consistent with closed system magmatic differentiation of
a mantle-derived basaltic melt. We employed a number of modelling exercises to constrain the origin of the chemical and isotopic
compositions reported. δ18OOlivine is up to 0.2‰ higher than modelled values for closed system fractional crystallisation of a primary melt. We attribute this
to isotopic disequilibria between cumulus minerals crystallising at different temperatures, with equilibration retarded by
slow oxygen diffusion in olivine during prolonged crustal storage. We used melt inclusion and plagioclase compositions to
determine parental magmatic water contents (water saturated, 4.6 ± 0.5 wt% H2O) and crystallisation pressures (173 ± 50 MPa). Applying these values to previously reported basaltic and basaltic andesite
lava compositions, we can reproduce the cumulus plagioclase and olivine compositions and their associated trend. We conclude
that differentiation of primitive hydrous basalts on St. Vincent involves crystallisation of olivine and Cr-rich spinel at
depth within the crust, lowering MgO and Cr2O3 and raising Al2O3 and CaO of residual melt due to suppression of plagioclase. Low density, hydrous basaltic and basaltic andesite melts then
ascend rapidly through the crust, stalling at shallow depth upon water saturation where crystallisation of the chemically
distinct cumulus phases observed in this study can occur. Deposited crystals armour the shallow magma chamber where oxygen
isotope equilibration between minerals is slowly approached, before remobilisation and entrainment by later injections of
magma. 相似文献

Geochemical data from melt inclusions in olivine phenocrysts in a picritic basalt from the Siqueiros Transform Fault on the northern East Pacific Rise provide insights into the petrogenesis of mid-ocean ridge basalts (MORB). The fresh lava contains ~10% of olivine phenocrysts (Fo89.3-91.2) and rare, small (<1 mm) plagioclase phenocrysts with subhedral to irregular shapes with a range of compositions (An80-90, An57-63). Melt inclusions in olivine phenocrysts are glassy, generally rounded in shape and vary in size from a few to ~200 µm. Although most of the inclusions have compositions that are generally consistent with being representative of parental melts for the pillow-rim glasses, several inclusions are clearly different. One inclusion, which contains a euhedral grain of high-Al, low-Ti spinel, has a composition unlike any melt inclusions previously described from primitive phenocrysts in MORB. It has a very high Al2O3 (~20 wt%), very low TiO2 (~0.04 wt%) and Na2O (~1 wt%) contents, and a very high CaO/Na2O value (~14). The glass inclusion is strongly depleted in all incompatible elements (La =0.052 ppm; Yb =0.34; La/Sm(n) ~0.27), but it has large positive Sr and Eu anomalies (Sr/Sr* ~30; Eu/Eu* ~3) and a negative Zr anomaly. It also has low S (0.015 wt%) and relatively high Cl (180 ppm). We suggest that this unusual composition is a consequence of olivine trapping plagioclase in a hot, strongly plagioclase-undersaturated magma and subsequent reaction between plagioclase and the host olivine producing melt and residual spinel. Two other melt inclusions in a different olivine phenocryst have compositions that are generally intermediate between 'normal' inclusions and the aluminous inclusion, but have even higher CaO and Sr contents. They are also depleted in incompatible elements, but to a lesser degree than the aluminous inclusion, and have smaller Sr and Eu anomalies. Similar inclusions have also been described in high-Fo olivine phenocrysts from Iceland and northern Mid-Atlantic Ridge. We suggest that the compositions of these inclusions represent assimilation of gabbroic material into the hot primitive magma. The localised nature of this assimilation is consistent with it occurring within a crystal mush zone where the porosity is high as primitive magmas pass through earlier formed gabbroic 'cumulates'. In such an environment the contaminants are expected to have quite diverse compositions. Although the interaction of primitive melts with gabbroic material may not affect the compositions of erupted MORB melts on a large scale, this process may be important in some MORB suites and should be accounted for in petrogenetic models. Another important implication is that the observed variability in melt inclusion compositions in primitive MORB phenocrysts need not always to reflect processes occurring in the mantle. In particular, inferences on fractional melting processes based on geochemistry of ultra-depleted melt inclusions may not always be valid. 相似文献

The fidelity of melt inclusions as records of melt composition 总被引:5,自引:5,他引:0

A series of experiments created melt inclusions in plagioclase and pyroxene crystals grown from a basaltic melt at 1,150°C,
1.0 GPa to investigate diffusive fractionation during melt inclusion formation; additionally, P diffusion in a basaltic melt
was measured at 1.0 GPa. Melt inclusions and melts within a few 100 microns of plagioclase–melt interfaces were analyzed for
comparison with melt compositions far from the crystals. Melt inclusions and melt compositions in the boundary layer close
to the crystal–melt interface were similar, but both differ significantly in incompatible element concentrations from melt
found greater than approximately 200 microns away from the crystals. The compositional profiles of S, Cl, P, Fe, and Al in
the boundary layers were successfully reproduced by a two-step model of rapid crystal growth followed by diffusive relaxation
toward equilibrium after termination of crystal growth. Applying this model to investigate possible incompatible element enrichment
in natural melt inclusions demonstrated that at growth rates high enough to create the conditions for melt inclusion formation,
∼10−9–10−8 m s−1, the concentration of water in the boundary layer near the crystal was similar to that of the bulk melt because of its high
diffusion coefficient, but sulfur, with a diffusivity similar to major elements and CO2, was somewhat enriched in the boundary layer melt, and phosphorus, with its low diffusion coefficient similar to other high-field
strength elements and rare earth elements, was significantly enriched. Thus, the concentrations of sulfur and phosphorus in
melt inclusions may over-estimate their values in the bulk melt, and other elements with similar diffusion coefficients may
also be enriched in melt inclusions relative to the bulk melt.

Hydrous partial melting in the sheeted dike complex at fast spreading ridges: experimental and natural observations 总被引:5,自引:1,他引:4
Lydéric France Juergen Koepke Benoit Ildefonse Sarah B. Cichy Fabien Deschamps 《Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology》2010,160(5):683-704
In ophiolites and in present-day oceanic crust formed at fast spreading ridges, oceanic plagiogranites are commonly observed
at, or close to the base of the sheeted dike complex. They can be produced either by differentiation of mafic melts, or by
hydrous partial melting of the hydrothermally altered sheeted dikes. In addition, the hydrothermally altered base of the sheeted
dike complex, which is often infiltrated by plagiogranitic veins, is usually recrystallized into granoblastic dikes that are
commonly interpreted as a result of prograde granulitic metamorphism. To test the anatectic origin of oceanic plagiogranites,
we performed melting experiments on a natural hydrothermally altered dike, under conditions that match those prevailing at
the base of the sheeted dike complex. All generated melts are water saturated, transitional between tholeiitic and calc-alkaline,
and match the compositions of oceanic plagiogranites observed close to the base of the sheeted dike complex. Newly crystallized
clinopyroxene and plagioclase have compositions that are characteristic of the same minerals in granoblastic dikes. Published
silicic melt compositions obtained in classical MORB fractionation experiments also broadly match the compositions of oceanic
plagiogranites; however, the compositions of the coexisting experimental minerals significantly deviate from those of the
granoblastic dikes. Our results demonstrate that hydrous partial melting is a likely common process in the root zone of the
sheeted dike complex, starting at temperatures exceeding 850°C. The newly formed melt can either crystallize to form oceanic
plagiogranites or may be recycled within the melt lens resulting in hybridized and contaminated MORB melts. It represents
the main MORB crustal contamination process. The residue after the partial melting event is represented by the granoblastic
dikes. Our results support a model with a dynamic melt lens that has the potential to trigger hydrous partial melting reactions
in the previously hydrothermally altered sheeted dikes. A new thermometer using the Al content of clinopyroxene is also elaborated. 相似文献

Flow laws for high-temperature creep of olivine, plagioclase, and diabase are used to place constraints on the rheology of partially molten lower oceanic crust. This analysis is motivated by the observation of olivine lattice preferred orientations and subgrain microstructures in oceanic gabbros that lack evidence for dislocation creep in coexisting plagioclase and pyroxene. Extrapolation of experimental flow laws indicates that at temperatures above 1100°C and stresses less than 10 MPa, olivine may be the weakest phase in rocks with gabbroic composition. By accounting for variations in the melt fraction (0–10%) and grain size of partially molten plagioclase aggregates we can constrain the rheological conditions where olivine deforms by dislocation creep while plagioclase deforms by diffusion creep. Calculated effective viscosities range from 1015 to 1019 Pa s; based on observations of the geometry of the partially molten zone beneath the East Pacific Rise and the microstructural and experimental constraints we favor a value of ∼1018 Pa s. This value approaches estimates for the viscosity of the upper mantle beneath ridge axes, but is significantly higher than previously suggested for the partially molten lower crust. Such high viscosities are inconsistent with ridge evolution models that require large amounts of lower crustal flow to accommodate melt redistribution. However, the results are compatible with recent models that favor local magma replenishment from the mantle at closely spaced intervals along the spreading center axis in a 2D, ‘sheet-like’ fashion. 相似文献

The Rotoiti (~120 km3) and Earthquake Flat (~10 km3) eruptions occurred in close succession from the Okataina Volcanic Centre at ~50 ka. While accessory mineral geochronology
points to long periods of crystallization prior to eruption (104–105 years) and separate thermal histories for the magmas, little was known about the rates and processes of the final melt production
and eruption. Crystal zoning patterns in plagioclase and quartz reveal the thermal and compositional history of the magmatic
system leading up to the eruption. The dominant modal phase, plagioclase, displays considerable within-crystal zonation: An37–74, ~40–227 ppm MgO, 45–227 ppm TiO2, 416–910 ppm Sr and 168–1164 ppm Ba. Resorption horizons in the crystals are marked by sharp increases (10–30%) in Sr, MgO
and XAn that reflect changes in melt composition and are consistent with open system processes. Melt inclusions display further evidence
for open system behaviour, some are depleted in Sr and Ba relative to accompanying matrix glass not consistent with crystallization
of modal assemblage. MI also display a wide range in XH2O that is consistent with volatile fluxing. Quartz CL images reveal zoning that is truncated by resorption, and accompanied
by abrupt increases in Ti concentration (30–80 ppm) that reflect temperature increases ~50–110°C. Diffusion across these resorption
horizons is restricted to zones of <20 μm, suggesting most crystallization within the magma occurred in <2000 years. These
episodes are brief compared to the longevity (104–105 year) of the crystal mush zones. All textural and compositional features observed within the quartz and plagioclase crystals
are best explained by periodic mafic intrusions repeatedly melting parts of a crystal-rich zone and recharging the system
with silicic melt. These periodic influxes of silicic melt would have accumulated to form the large volume of magma that fed
the caldera-forming Rotoiti eruption. 相似文献

The Red Hills peridotite in the Dun Mountain ophiolite of SouthIsland, New Zealand, is assumed to have been produced in a paleo-mid-oceanridge tectonic setting. The peridotite is composed mostly ofharzburgite and dunite, which represent residual mantle andthe Moho transition zone (MTZ), respectively. Dunite channelswithin harzburgite blocks of various scales represent the MTZcomponent. Plagioclase- and clinopyroxene-bearing dunites occursporadically within common dunites. These dunites representproducts of meltwall-rock interaction. Chondrite-normalizedrare earth element (REE) patterns of MTZ clinopyroxenes showa wide compositional range. Clinopyroxenes in plagioclase dunitesare extremely depleted in light REE (LREE) ([Lu/La]N >100),and are comparable with clinopyroxenes in abyssal peridotitesfrom normal mid-ocean ridges. Interstitial clinopyroxenes inthe common dunite have flatter patterns ([Lu/La]N 2) comparablewith those for dunite in the Oman ophiolite. Clinopyroxenesin the lower part of the residual mantle harzburgites are evenmore strongly depleted in LREE ([Lu/La]N = 1001000) thanare mid-ocean ridge peridotites, and rival the most depletedabyssal clinopyroxenes reported from the Bouvet hotspot. Incontrast, those in the uppermost residual mantle harzburgiteand harzburgite blocks in the MTZ are less LREE depleted ([Lu/La]N= 10100), and are similar to those in plagioclase dunite.Clinopyroxenes in the clinopyroxene dunite in the MTZ are similarto those reported from mid-ocean ridge basalt (MORB) cumulates,and clinopyroxenes in the gabbroic rocks have compositions similarto those reported from MORB. Strong LREE and middle REE (MREE)depletion in clinopyroxenes in the harzburgite suggests thatthe harzburgites are residues of two-stage fractional melting,which operated initially in the garnet field, and subsequentlycontinued in the spinel lherzolite field. The early stage meltingproduced the depleted harzburgite. The later stage melting wasresponsible for the gabbroic rocks and dunite. Strongly LREEMREE-depletedclinopyroxene in the lower harzburgite and HREE-enriched clinopyroxenein the upper harzburgite and plagioclase dunite were formedby later reactive melt migration occurring in the harzburgite.

Highly siderophile element concentrations (HSE: Re and platinum-group elements (PGE)) are presented for gabbros, gabbroic eclogites and basaltic eclogites from the high-pressure Zermatt-Saas ophiolite terrain, Switzerland. Rhenium and PGE (Os, Ir, Ru, Rh, Pt, Pd) abundances in gabbro- and eclogite-hosted sulphides, and Re-Os isotopes and elemental concentrations in silicate phases are also reported. This work, therefore, provides whole rock and mineral-scale insights into the PGE budget of gabbroic oceanic crust and the effects of subduction metamorphism on gabbroic and basaltic crust.Chondrite-normalised PGE patterns for the gabbros are similar to published mid-ocean ridge basalts (MORB), but show less inter-element fractionation. Mean Pt and Pd contents of 360 and 530 pg/g, respectively, are broadly comparable to MORB, but gabbros have somewhat higher abundances of Os, Ir and Ru (mean: 64, 57 and 108 pg/g). Transformation to eclogite has not significantly changed the concentrations of the PGE, except Pd which is severely depleted in gabbroic eclogites relative to gabbros (∼75% loss). In contrast, basaltic eclogites display significant depletion of Pt (?60%), Pd (>85%) and Re (50-60%) compared with published MORB, while Os, Ir and Ru abundances are broadly comparable. Thus, these data suggest that only Pt, Pd and Re, and not Os, Ir and Ru, may be significantly fluxed into the mantle wedge from mafic oceanic crust. Re-Os model ages for gabbroic and gabbroic eclogite minerals are close to age estimates for igneous crystallisation and high-pressure metamorphism, respectively, hence the HSE budgets can be related to both igneous and metamorphic behaviour. The gabbroic budget of Os, Ir, Ru and Pd (but not Pt) is dominated by sulphide, which typically hosts >90% of the Os, whereas silicates account for most of the Re (with up to 75% in plagioclase alone). Sulphides in gabbroic eclogites tend to host a smaller proportion of the total Os (10-90%) while silicates are important hosts, probably reflecting Os inheritance from precursor phases. Garnet contains very high Re concentrations and may account for >50% of Re in some samples. The depletion of Pd in gabbroic eclogites appears linked, at least in part, to the loss of Ni-rich sulphide.Both basaltic and gabbroic oceanic crust have elevated Pt/Os ratios, but Pt/Re ratios are not sufficiently high to generate the coupled 186Os-187Os enrichments observed in some mantle melts, even without Pt loss from basaltic crust. However, the apparent mobility of Pt and Re in slab fluids provides an alternative mechanism for the generation of Pt- and Re-rich mantle material, recently proposed as a potential source of 187Os-186Os enrichment. 相似文献

Tectonic exposures of upper plutonics (>800 m) that are part of a contiguous section of young East Pacific Rise (EPR) crust
at the Hess Deep Rift provide the first regional-scale constraints on hydrothermal processes in the upper plutonic crust formed
at a fast-spreading ridge. Submersible-collected samples recovered over a 4-km-wide region show that the sheeted dike complex
is largely underlain by a 150- to 200-m-thick gabbro unit, followed by a more primitive gabbronorite unit. Gabbroic samples
are variably altered by pervasive fluid flow along fracture networks to amphibole-dominated assemblages. The gabbroic rocks
are significantly less altered (average 11% hydrous phases) than the overlying sheeted dike complex (average 24%), and the
percentage of hydrous alteration diminishes with depth. Incipient, pervasive fluid flow occurred at amphibolite facies conditions
(average 720°C), with slightly higher temperatures in the lower 500 m of the section. The extent of subsequent lower-temperature
alteration is generally low and regionally variable. The gabbroic samples are slightly elevated in 87Sr/86Sr relative to fresh rock values (0.7024) and less enriched than the overlying sheeted dike complex. 87Sr/86Sr for the pervasively altered gabbroic samples ranges from 0.70244 to 0.70273 (mean 0.70257), tonalites is 0.7038, and pyroxene
hornfels ranges from 0.70259 to 0.70271. 87Sr/86Sr does not vary with depth, and there is a strong positive correlation with the percentage of hydrous phases. Strontium contents
of igneous and hydrothermal minerals, combined with bulk rock 87Sr/86Sr, indicate that Sr-isotopic exchange is largely controlled by the uptake of fluid 87Sr/86Sr in hydrous minerals and does not require Sr gain or loss. The minimum, time-integrated fluid–rock ratio for the sheeted
dike complex and upper plutonics is 0.55–0.66, and the fluid flux calculated by mass balance is ~2.1 to 2.5 × 106 kg m−2, 30–60% higher than fluid fluxes calculated in the same manner for sheeted dike complexes on their own at Hess and Pito Deeps,
and Ocean Drilling Program Hole 504B. Alteration patterns within the upper plutonics evolved in response to axial magma chamber
(AMC) dynamics at the EPR, such that magma replenishment led to assimilation and thermal metamorphism of the country rock,
and the position of the hydrothermal root-zone tracked the vertical migration of the AMC. The freshness of the lowermost gabbroic
rocks suggests that pervasive fluid flow does not lead to significant fluid and heat fluxes at and near fast-spreading ridges. 相似文献

Mineral-scale Sr-isotope constraints on magma evolution and chamber dynamics in the Rum layered intrusion,Scotland 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Sr isotopic zoning within single plagioclase crystals from rocks from Unit 9 of the Rum layered intrusion is used to infer events during crystal growth in a magma undergoing contamination. The 87Sr/86Sr diversity among minerals and between cores and rims of plagioclase crystals increases as the boundary between unit 9 and the overlying Unit 10 peridotite is approached. Models of near-solidus interaction of the cumulate with a fluid or melt, or large scale textural re-equilibration, cannot easily account for the systematic differences in 87Sr/86Sr between small crystals and the rims of larger crystals.We propose a simple interpretation in which crystal growth is concentrated along the cool margins of the reservoir. Crystals are subsequently advected to a site of accumulation at the base of the reservoir, probably by episodic plume-like dense downwellings allowing mixing of isotopically zoned and unzoned crystals.If the core-rim isotope variations are inherited from primary magmatic growth, then the small distances over which they are now preserved (1–2 mm) place constraints on the minimum cooling rate of the intrusion. Although the length scale of diffusive equilibration is influenced by a number of poorly-constrained variables (starting temperature, feldspar composition, temperature-time path) cooling was clearly very rapid with cooling to effective closure (~1,000 °C) within a few thousand years.Editorial responsibility: I.

Certain petrological features of oceanic volcanic and plutonic rocks are not completely consistent with previously proposed models of crystal fractionation or magma mixing. For example, Sr is often higher in the differentiated basalts of a suite of aphyric rocks than in the relatively primitive basalts even though the differentiated basalts have apparently been produced by crystallization of large amounts of plagioclase with olivine and clinopyroxene. Additionally, oceanic basalts and gabbroic rocks often contain plagioclase crystals in excess of the appropriate cotectic proportions. Certain differentiated oceanic basaltic glasses and aphyric rocks crystallize plagioclase as the liquidus mineral, which would seem inconsistent with the strongly cotectic nature of the olivine + plagioclase + liquid surface.It is proposed here that plagioclase in mid-ocean ridge magma chambers separates from the basaltic liquid that it crystallizes in at a slower rate than does co-crystallizing olivine or pyroxene. Magma mixing in which a portion of the plagioclase remains suspended in the liquid during crystallization results in much more complex liquid lines of descent in mixed magmas and appears to resolve the apparent discrepancies noted above. 相似文献

The petrology of five phenocryst-poor (2–5%) andesites and dacites, all of which were erupted from different short-lived,
monogenetic vents, is compared to that of phenocryst-rich (10–25%) andesites erupted from the adjacent stratovolcano, Volcán
Tequila, in the Mexican arc. Despite differences in phenocryst abundances, these magmas have comparable phase assemblages
(plagioclase + orthopyroxene + titanomagnetite + ilmenite + apatite ± augite ± hornblende), and similarly wide variations
in phenocryst compositions, coupled to complex zoning patterns. For the phenocryst-poor lavas, equilibrium pairs of two Fe–Ti
oxides lead to a narrow range of calculated temperatures for each sample that range from 934 (±24) to 1,073 (±6)°C and oxygen
fugacities that range from +0.1 to +0.7 log units relative to the Ni–NiO buffer. Application of the plagioclase-liquid hygrometer
to each sample at these calculated temperatures leads to maximum melt water concentrations of 4.6–3.1 wt% during plagioclase
crystallization, indicating that the magmas were fluid saturated at depths ≥6.4–4.5 km. There is a wide, continuous range
in the composition of plagioclase (≤44 mol% An) and orthopyroxene (≤16% Mg#) phenocrysts in each sample, which is consistent
with a loss of dissolved water (≤2.8 wt%) from the melt phase during degassing as the magmas ascended rapidly to the surface.
Evidence is presented that shows the effect of dissolved water is to reduce the activity of MgO relative to FeO in the melt
phase, which indicates that degassing will also affect the Mg# of pyroxene phenocrysts, with higher melt water concentrations
favoring Fe-rich pyroxene. Both plagioclase and orthopyroxene commonly display diffusion-limited growth textures (e.g., skeletal
and hopper crystals, large interior melt hollows, and swallow tails), which are consistent with large undercoolings produced
by degassing-induced crystallization. Therefore, degassing is proposed as a possible cause for the phenocryst compositional
diversity documented in the phenocryst-poor andesite and dacite lavas erupted from peripheral vents, including the coexistence
of normally zoned plagioclase and reversely zoned orthopyroxene. Degassing-induced crystallization may also explain some of
the phenocryst complexity in crystal-rich andesites erupted from large stratovolcanoes, including Volcán Tequila. 相似文献

The Mersin ophiolite, represented by approximately 6-km-thick oceanic lithospheric section on the southern flank of the Taurus
calcareous axis, formed in the Mesozoic Neo-Tethyan ocean some time during Late Cretaceous in southern Turkey. The ultramafic
and mafic cumulates having over 3 km thickness consist of dunite ± chromite, wehrlite, clinopyroxenite at the bottom and pass
into gabbroic cumulates in which leucogabbro, olivine-gabbro and anorthosite are seen. Crystallization order is olivine (Fo91−80) ± chromian spinel (Cr# 60-80), clinopyroxene (Mg#95−77), plagioclase (An95.6−91.6) and orthopyroxene (Mg#68−77). Mineral chemistry of ultramafic and mafic cumulates suggest that highly magnesian olivines, clinopyroxenes and absence
of plagioclase in the basal ultramafic cumulates are in good agreement with products of high-pressure crystal fractionation
of primary basaltic melts beneath an island-arc environment. Major, trace element geochemistry of the cumulative rocks also
indicate that Mersin ophiolite was formed in an arc environment. Coexisting Ca-rich plagioclase and Forich olivine in the
gabbroic cumulates show arc cumulate gabbro characteristics. Field relations as well as the geochemical data support that
Mersin ophiolite formed in a supra-subduction zone tectonic setting in the southern branch of the Neo-Tethys in southern Turkey. 相似文献

Decoupled crystallization and eruption histories of the rhyolite magmatic system at Tarawera volcano revealed by zircon ages and growth rates 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:0
We obtained U–Th disequilibrium age data on zircons from each of the four rhyolite eruptions that built Tarawera volcano in
the last 22 ka within the Okataina Volcanic Center (OVC), caldera, New Zealand. Secondary ion mass spectrometry analyses on
unpolished euhedral crystal faces that lack resorption features show that crystal growth variously terminated from near-eruption
age to ~100 ka prior to eruption. Age-depth profiling of crystals reveals long periods of continuous (~34 ka) and discontinuous
growth (~90 ka). Growth hiatuses of up to ~40 ka duration occur, but do not all relate to obvious resorption surfaces. Age
differences up to similar magnitude are found on opposing faces of some crystals suggesting episodes of partial exposure to
melts. These features are best explained by periodic, complete, or partial, sub-solidus storage and/or inclusion in larger
crystal phases, followed by rapid liberation prior to eruption. This is supported by high abundances of U and Th (~500 − >2,000 ppm)
in some zircons consistent with periods of high crystallinity (>70%) in the magmatic system, based on crystal/melt partitioning.
Contemporaneous but contrasting rim-ward trends of these elements within crystals, even in the same lava hand sample, require
synchronous growth in separate melt bodies and little connectivity within the system, but also significant crystal transport
and mixing prior to eruption. Many crystals record continuity of growth through the preceding ~60 ka OVC caldera-collapse
and subsequent eruptions from Tarawera. This demonstrates a decoupling between eruption triggers, such as shallow crustal
extension and mafic intrusion, and the crystallization state of the OVC silicic magmatic system. The data highlights the need
to distinguish between the time for accumulation of eruptible magma and the long-term magma residence time based on the age
of crystals with high closure temperatures, when assessing the potential for catastrophic eruptions. 相似文献

During its 1800-year-long persistent activity the Stromboli volcano has erupted a highly porphyritic (HP) volatile-poor scoriaceous
magma and a low porphyritic (LP) volatile-rich pumiceous magma. The HP magma is erupted during normal Strombolian explosions
and lava effusions, while the LP one is related to more energetic paroxysms. During the March–April 2003 explosive activity,
Stromboli ejected two typologies of juvenile glassy ashes, namely highly vesicular LP shards and volatile-poor HP shards.
Their textural and in situ chemical characteristics are used to unravel mutual relationships between HP and LP magmas, as
well as magma dynamics within the shallow plumbing system. The mantle-normalized trace element patterns of both ash types
show the typical arc-lava pattern; however, HP glasses possess incompatible element concentrations higher than LP glasses,
along with Sr and Eu negative anomalies. HP shards are generally characterized by higher Li contents (to ~20 ppm) and lower
δ7Li values (+1.2 to −3.8‰) with respect to LP shards (Li contents of 7–14 ppm and δ7Li ranging between +4.6 and +0.9‰). Fractional crystallization models based on major and trace element compositions, combined
with a degassing model based on open-system Rayleigh distillation and on the assumption that melt/fluidDLi > 1, show that abundant (~30%) plagioclase precipitation and variable degrees of degassing can lead the more primitive LP
magma to evolve toward a differentiated (isotopically lighter) HP magma ponding in the upper conduit and undergoing slow continuous
degassing-induced crystallization. This study also evidences that in March 2003 Stromboli volcano poured out a small early
volume of LP magma that traveled slower within the conduit with respect to later and larger volumes of fast ascending LP magma
erupted during the April 5 paroxysm. The different ascent rates and cooling rates of the two LP magma batches (i.e., pre-
and post-paroxysm) resulted in small, but detectable, differences in their chemical signatures. Finally, this study highlights
the high potential of in situ investigations of juvenile glassy ashes in petrologic and geochemical monitoring the volcanic
activity and of Li isotopes as tracers of degassing processes within the shallow plumbing system. 相似文献

Role of the subducted slab,mantle wedge and continental crust in the generation of adakites from the Andean Austral Volcanic Zone 总被引:78,自引:2,他引:78
All six Holocene volcanic centers of the Andean Austral Volcanic Zone (AVZ; 49–54°S) have erupted exclusively adakitic andesites
and dacites characterized by low Yb and Y concentrations and high Sr/Y ratios, suggesting a source with residual garnet, amphibole
and pyroxene, but little or no olivine and plagioclase. Melting of mafic lower crust may be the source for adakites in some
arcs, but such a source is inconsistent with the high Mg# of AVZ adakites. Also, the AVZ occurs in a region of relatively
thin crust (<35 km) within which plagioclase rather than garnet is stable. The source for AVZ adakites is more likely to be
subducted oceanic basalt, recrystallized to garnet-amphibolite or eclogite. Geothermal models indicate that partial melting
of the subducted oceanic crust is probable below the Austral Andes due to the slow subduction rate (2 cm/year) and the young
age (<24 Ma) of the subducted oceanic lithosphere. Geochemical models for AVZ adakites are also consistent with a large material
contribution from subducted oceanic crust (35–90% slab-derived mass), including sediment (up to 4% sediment-derived mass,
representing approximately 15% of all sediment subducted). Variable isotopic and trace-element ratios observed for AVZ adakites,
which span the range reported for adakites world-wide, require multistage models involving melting of different proportions
of subducted basalt and sediment, as well as an important material contribution from both the overlying mantle wedge (10–50%
mass contribution) and continental crust (0–30% mass contribution). Andesites from Cook Island volcano, located in the southernmost
AVZ (54°S) where subduction is more oblique, have MORB-like Sr, Nd, Pb and O isotopic composition and trace-element ratios.
These can be modeled by small degrees (2–4%) of partial melting of eclogitic MORB, yielding a tonalitic parent (intermediate
SiO2, CaO/Na2O>1), followed by limited interaction of this melt with the overlying mantle (≥90% MORB melt, ≤10% mantle), but only very
little (≤1%) or no participation of either subducted sediment or crust. In contrast, models for the magmatic evolution of
Burney (52°S), Reclus (51°S) and northernmost AVZ (49–50°S) andesites and dacites require melting of a mixture of MORB and
subducted sediment, followed by interaction of this melt not only with the overlying mantle, but the crust as well. Crustal
assimilation and fractional crystallization (AFC) processes and the mass contribution from the crust become more significant
northwards in the AVZ as the angle of convergence becomes more orthogonal.

To understand partitioning of hydrogen between hydrous basaltic and andesitic liquids and coexisting clinopyroxene and garnet,
experiments using a mid-ocean ridge basalt (MORB) + 6 wt.% H2O were conducted at 3 GPa and 1,150–1,325°C. These included both isothermal and controlled cooling rate crystallization experiments,
as crystals from the former were too small for ion microprobe (SIMS) analyses. Three runs at lower bulk water content are
also reported. H2O was measured in minerals by SIMS and in glasses by SIMS, Fourier Transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and from oxide
totals of electron microprobe (EMP) analyses. At 3 GPa, the liquidus for MORB with 6 wt.% H2O is between 1,300 and 1,325°C. In the temperature interval investigated, the melt proportion varies from 100 to 45% and the
modes of garnet and clinopyroxene are nearly equal. Liquid composition varies from basaltic to andesitic. The crystallization
experiments starting from above the liquidus failed to nucleate garnets, but those starting from below the liquidus crystallized
both garnet and clinopyroxene. SIMS analyses of glasses with >7 wt.% H2O yield spuriously low concentrations, perhaps owing to hydrogen degassing in the ultra-high vacuum of the ion microprobe
sample chamber. FTIR and EMP analyses show that the glasses have 3.4 to 11.9 wt.% water, whilst SIMS analyses indicate that
clinopyroxenes have 1,340–2,330 ppm and garnets have 98–209 ppm H2O. D
H
cpx−gt is 11 ± 3, D
H
cpx−melt is 0.023 ± 0.005 and D
H
gt−melt is 0.0018 ± 0.0006. Most garnet/melt pairs have low values of D
H
gt−melt, but D
H
gt−melt increases with TiO2 in the garnet. As also found by previous studies, values of D
H
cpx−melt increase with Al2O3 of the crystal. For garnet pyroxenite, estimated values of D
H
pyroxenite−melt decrease from 0.015 at 2.5 GPa to 0.0089 at 5 GPa. Hydration will increase the depth interval between pyroxenite and peridotite
solidi for mantle upwelling beneath ridges or oceanic islands. This is partly because the greater pyroxene/olivine ratio in
pyroxenite will tend to enhance the H2O concentration of pyroxenite, assuming that neighboring pyroxenite and peridotite bodies have similar H2O in their pyroxenes.

The chemical compositions of melt inclusions in a primitive and an evolved basalt recovered from the mid-Atlantic ridge south
of the Kane Fracture Zone (23°–24°N) are determined. The melt inclusions are primitive in composition (0.633–0.747 molar Mg/(Mg+Fe2+), 1.01–0.68 wt% TiO2) and are comparable to other proposed parental magmas except in having higher Al2O3 and lower CaO. The primitive melt inclusion compositions indicate that the most primitive magmas erupted in this region are
not near primary magma compositions. Olivine and plagioclase microphenocrysts are close to exchange equilibrium with their
respective basalt glasses, whose compositions are displaced toward olivine from 1 atm three phase saturation. The most primitive
melt inclusion compositions are close to exchange equilibrium with the anorthitic cores of zoned plagioclases (An78.3-An83.1; the hosts for the melt inclusions in plagioclase) and with olivines more forsteritic (Fo89-Fo91) than the olivine microphenocrysts (the hosts for the melt inclusions in olivine). Xenocrystic olivine analyzed is Fo89 but contains no melt inclusions. These observations indicate that olivines have exchanged components with the melt after
melt inclusion entrapment, whereas plagioclase compositions have remained the same since melt inclusion entrapment. Common
denominator element ratio diagrams and oxide versus oxide variation diagrams show that the melt inclusion compositions, which
represent liquids higher along the liquid line of descent, are related to the glass compositions by the fractionation of olivine,
plagioclase and clinopyroxene (absent from the mincral assemblage), probably occurring at elevated pressures. A model is proposed
whereby clinopyroxene segregates from the melt at elevated pressures (to account for its absence in the erupted lavas that
have the chemical imprint of clinopyroxene fractionation). Zoned plagioclases in the erupted lavas are thought to be survivors
of decompressional melting during magma ascent. Since similar primitive melt inclusions occur in olivine microphenocrysts
and in the cores of zoned plagioclases, any model must account for all phases present. 相似文献

Melt variability in percolated peridotite: an experimental study applied to reactive migration of tholeiitic basalt in the upper mantle 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:0

Melt-rock reaction in the upper mantle is recorded in a variety of ultramafic rocks and is an important process in modifying
melt composition on its way from the source region towards the surface. This experimental study evaluates the compositional
variability of tholeiitic basalts upon reaction with depleted peridotite at uppermost-mantle conditions. Infiltration-reaction
processes are simulated by employing a three-layered set-up: primitive basaltic powder (‘melt layer’) is overlain by a ‘peridotite
layer’ and a layer of vitreous carbon spheres (‘melt trap’). Melt from the melt layer is forced to move through the peridotite
layer into the melt trap. Experiments were conducted at 0.65 and 0.8 GPa in the temperature range 1,170–1,290°C. In this P-T
range, representing conditions encountered in the transition zone (thermal boundary layer) between the asthenosphere and the
lithosphere underneath oceanic spreading centres, the melt is subjected to fractionation, and the peridotite is partially
melting (T
s ~ 1,260°C). The effect of reaction between melt and peridotite on the melt composition was investigated across each experimental
charge. Quenched melts in the peridotite layers display larger compositional variations than melt layer glasses. A difference
between glasses in the melt and peridotite layer becomes more important at decreasing temperature through a combination of
enrichment in incompatible elements in the melt layer and less efficient diffusive equilibration in the melt phase. At 1,290°C,
preferential dissolution of pyroxenes enriches the melt in silica and dilutes it in incompatible elements. Moreover, liquids
become increasingly enriched in Cr2O3 at higher temperatures due to the dissolution of spinel. Silica contents of liquids decrease at 1,260°C, whereas incompatible
elements start to concentrate in the melt due to increasing levels of crystallization. At the lowest temperatures investigated,
increasing alkali contents cause silica to increase as a consequence of reactive fractionation. Pervasive percolation of tholeiitic
basalt through an upper-mantle thermal boundary layer can thus impose a high-Si ‘low-pressure’ signature on MORB. This could
explain opx + plag enrichment in shallow plagioclase peridotites and prolonged formation of olivine gabbros. 相似文献
