In the southern Apennin (= northern part of the region dealt with) and the Coasta Chain (= southern part) there are metabasalts wich are classified in the northern part as:
  1. Glaucophane rocks of the albite-lawsonite-glaucophane-subfacies with the assemblage glaucophane + pumpellyite + lawsonite ±albite ±aragonite ±muscovite (7 rock analyses, 8 mineral analyses). These rocks are conceived as relics of an older burial metamorphism.
  2. Rocks with pumpellyite and chlorite or also chlorite alone, that are interpreted as reaction rims between the metastable glaucophane rocks and the country rock (phyllites, quartzites). The assemblages pumpellyite + chlorite and chlorite alone are to be found (2 rock analyses and 2 mineral analyses).
  3. Rocks with lawsonite and/or epidote belong to the same mineral facies as the country rock: a facies similar to the greenschist facies (called “lawsonite-albite-chlorite-subfacies”) which is characterized by the assemblages lawsonite + albite + chlorite ±calcite and also epidote ±lawsonite + albite + chlorite ± muscovite. These types are attributed to a younger dynamo-metamorphism (2 rock analyses).
In the southern part, the metabasalts can be found only as rocks with epidote and/or lawsonite, a metamorphism with more than one event cannot be proved petrologically (3 rock analyses). Equations of the observed mineral reactions are given. The transitions of one facies into another are represented in the pseudo-quaternary system Al2O3-CaO-Na2O · Al2O3-2 Fe2O3 + FeO + MnO + MgO-(H2O). The pressure-temperature conditions are estimated on the basis of published experimental data (300° C and 6–7 kb for the glaucophane rocks; 400° C and about 6 kb for the rocks with lawsonite and/or epidote) and are compared with geologic facts.  相似文献

The Late Ordovician schist of Skookum Gulch, northern California, is one of only a few pre-Mesozoic blueschist localities in North America. Among these, the Skookum Gulch occurrence is noteworthy because it contains lawsonite and has had a relatively simple metamorphic and structural history.Numerous assemblages and a wide variation in the modal proportion of minerals are present due to a spectrum of bulk compositions. This is reflected in the composition of Na-amphibole, which varies from ferro-glaucophane, glaucophane, and crossite (±magnetite) to magnesio-riebeckite (+hematite). Application of the available experiments and empirically calibrated equilibria to the assemblages glaucophane+lawsonite+chlorite+quartz+albite and glaucophane+actinolite+epidote+chlorite+quartz+albite yield estimates of temperature and pressure near T= 275° C and P=7.0 kbar. Estimates of uncertainty are difficult to assess, but are no more than ±100° C and ±3.0 kbar, and are probably considerably smaller. Calcite +quartz+sphene and calcite+quartz+actinolite indicate an extremely H2O-rich fluid (X(CO2)<0.003).The absence of a greenschist facies overprint indicates that the schist of Skookum Gulch was uplifted soon after metamorphism. However, it was not exposed until the recent geologic past, having resided at shallow crustal levels for approximately 400 Ma.  相似文献

A 600 m thick, more than 40 km long slice of eclogite faciesrocks, called the Sug?z? Nappe, occurs in the Alanya area, southernTurkey, sandwiched between two other crystalline nappes whichdo not show HP/LT metamorphism. All three nappcs were affectedby a later Barrovian-type metamorphism and penetrative deformationwhich welded the nappes into a single tectonic unit. The SugOzuNappe consists predominantly of garnet-mica schists with lensesof eclogite and blueschist metabasites. The mineral assemblagein the eclogites, garnet+omphacite+glaucophane+paragonite+quartz+phengite+rutile, is estimated to have formed at 13?5?1?5 kb and510?25?C. The eclogite assemblage is variably overprinted bya later Barrovian metamorphism with the development of barroisite,chlorite, and albite. The extent of the Barrovian overprintwas controlled by the supply of fluid to the rocks. The Barrovian metamorphism increases in grade downwards in thestructural sequence; biotite and garnet isograds are mappedin the lowermost Mahmutlar Nappe, made up mostly of metapelitesand metapsammites. The metapelites in the garnet zone consistof garnet+biotite+chlorite+muscovite+albite+oligoclase+quartz+ilmenite;metamorphic conditions are estimated as 6?5?1?0 kb and 469?13?C. The HP/LT rocks of the Sug?z? Nappe underwent a cooling of about100?C during a dry uplift from a depth of about 48 km to 21km where they were intercalated with the other nappes, and affectedby a Barrovian metamorphism caused by the incoming fluids. Thecase of the Alanya Nappcs illustrates that the Barrovian overprintobserved in many eclogites and blueschists may not be due toincreasing temperature during uplift, but simply due to theintroduction of a fluid phase during part of the uplift P-Tpath.  相似文献

The Southern Vanoise is localized in the internal part of the Western Alps, in the Briançonnais zone. In Vanoise the following units can be distinguished (Fig. 1): a pre-hercynian basement (micaschists, glaucophanites, basic rocks), a permian cover (micaschists) and a mesozoic-paleocene cover (carbonate rocks). This area has been affected by the alpine metamorphic event characterized here by high and intermediate pressure facies. The rocks paragenesis are often unbalanced.The paleozoic rocks (Table 1) contain mainly: quartz, albite, paragonite, phengite, blue amphibole, chlorite, green biotite, garnet (Table 2). These minerals were analysed by an electron microprobe (Tables 3, 4 and 5). Mineral composition is highly variable: glaucophane is zoned (Table 5), white micas are more or less substituted with phengite (3.22O3/FeO + MgO)<0.53] whereas the Al rich chlorites [(Al2O3/FeO + MgO)>0.6] are associated with the less substituted white micas (Si=3.2) (Tables 3 and 4). The phengites with a Si content 3.2 occur in rocks where the retromorphic evolution is the most pronounced and penetrative. A metamorphic evolution is characterized by the disappearance of glaucophane which corresponds to the appearance of Al rich chlorite and to the decrease of phengitic substitution.The samples analysis are plotted in the tetraedric diagram: K2O-Al2O3-Na2O, Al2O3-FeO, MgO, on which a special mathematical treatment was applied. This method calculates the location of rocks composition in the four minerals space. This location is internal when the per cent amounts of all four relevant minerals are positive, if any of them is negative, the point is external (Tables 6–9).In Southern Vanoise micaschists, 2 subfacies are successively present (Fig. 3):Subfacies I: glaucophane-chlorite-phengite (Si4+ 3.5)-paragonite. Then subfacies II: chlorite-albite-phengite (Si4+ 3.2)-paragonite.In basic rocks is found essentially: Subfacies III: glaucophane-garnet-phengite-paragonite or IV: glaucophane-garnet-phengite-albite. Then subfacies V: green biotite-chlorite-albite-paragonite.The assemblages I and II proceed through reaction: 2 glaucophane +1 paragonite+2 H2O4.2 albite + 1 chlorite.The assemblage V appears with reactions: 1.8 glaucophane +2 phengite0.4 chlorite+2 green biotite + 3.6 albite +0.4 H2O or 2 glaucophane +2 phengite +0.5 garnet+ 6 H2O2 green biotite +1 chlorite+4 albiteThese reactions are controlled by hydratation: the composition variation of phengite and associated chlorite during the metamorphic evolution determines the stability of some minerals (particularly the glaucophane in Na2O poor rocks).In same rocks the results of mathematical treatment is not consistent with the data (Tables 2, 6–9). This discrepancy corresponds to a desequilibrium between chlorite and phengite.These results imply a continuous metamorphic evolution between two stages (Fig. 6): a first stage (1) at 8 kb, 350 ° C; a second stage (2) at 2 to 3 kb, 400–450 ° C.  相似文献

Abstract The mid-Tertiary blueschists, eclogites and eclogitic gneisses of northern New Caledonia are the products of four phases of regional metamorphism and deformation (D1–D4). Omphacite, lawsonite and Mn-rich garnet isogradic surfaces were developed during the second deformation (D2) under prograde pressure and temperature conditions. Subsequent deformations (D3–D4) folded these D2 isogradic surfaces. However, within the P-retrograde, T-prograde metamorphic environment of the D4 phase, omphacite altered to albite and chlorite; as a result, a late-stage sub-horizontal isogradic surface developed for omphacite-out where this mineral preserved as relics within syn-D4 albite porphyroblasts. Other minerals that crystallized for the first time (epidote) or had rim additions (almandine phengite) during D4, also form nearly horizontal isogradic surfaces. Porphyroblastic garnet and albite contain inclusion trails, which allow their microstructural development and crystallization of the matrix to be traced from D2 to D4. Late syn-D4 the temperature increased markedly in association with an extensive exothermic decarbonation, even though the rocks were in a state of pressure retrogression. This caused considerable neocrystallization, recrystallization and growth of mattix and porphyroblasts such that, although S2 foliation crenulated by D3 and D4 is readily observable, almost all signs of stored strain due to D3 and D4 have been removed, and the deeper schists and eclogitic gneisses superficially appear to have undergone a drastic annealing recrystallization, post-dating deformation.  相似文献

Abstract Two blueschist belts in the North Qilian Mountains occur in Middle Cambrian and Lower Ordovician strata and strike N30–35°W for about 500 km along the Caledonian fold belt on the south-west margin of the Sino-Korean plate. The styles of metamorphism and deformation are quite different in the two belts. The Middle Cambrian to Ordovician rocks in the high-grade belt are mainly blueschists and C-type eclogites in which six phases of lower and upper crustal deformation have been recognized. The rocks contain glaucophane, phengite, epidote, clinozoisite, chlorite, garnet, stilpnomelane, piedmontite, albite, titanite and quartz. The estimated P–T conditions of eclogites are 340 ± 10°C, 8 ± 1 kbar and, of blueschist, >380°C, 6–7 kbar. The Ordovician rocks in the low-grade belt are characterized by ductile to brittle deformation in the middle to upper crust. The low-grade blueschists contain glaucophane, lawsonite, pumpellyite, aragonite, albite and chlorite. The estimated P–T conditions are 150–250°C and 4–7 kbar.
K–Ar and 39Ar/40Ar geochronology on glaucophane and phengite from the high-grade blueschist belt suggest two stages of metamorphism at 460–440 and 400–380 Ma, which may represent the times of subduction and orogeny. The subduction metamorphism of the northern low-grade blueschist belt took place approximately at the end of the Ordovician.  相似文献

In this study, we have deduced the thermal history of the subducting Neotethys from its eastern margin, using a suite of partially hydrated metabasalts from a segment of the Nagaland Ophiolite Complex (NOC), India. Located along the eastern extension of the Indus‐Tsangpo suture zone (ITSZ), the N–S‐trending NOC lies between the Indian and Burmese plates. The metabasalts, encased within a serpentinitic mélange, preserve a tectonically disturbed metamorphic sequence, which from west to east is greenschist (GS), pumpellyite–diopside (PD) and blueschist (BS) facies. Metabasalts in all the three metamorphic facies record prograde metamorphic overprints directly on primary igneous textures and igneous augite. In the BS facies unit, the metabasalts interbedded with marble show centimetre‐ to metre‐scale interlayering of lawsonite blueschist (LBS) and epidote blueschist (EBS). Prograde HP/LT metamorphism stabilized lawsonite + omphacite (XJd = 0.50–0.56 to 0.26–0.37) + jadeite (XJd = 0.67–0.79) + augite + ferroglaucophane + high‐Si phengite (Si = 3.6–3.65 atoms per formula unit, a.p.f.u.) + chlorite + titanite + quartz in LBS and lawsonite + glaucophane/ferroglaucophane ± epidote ± omphacite (XJd = 0.34) + chlorite + phengite (Si = 3.5 a.p.f.u.) + titanite + quartz in EBS at the metamorphic peak. Retrograde alteration, which was pervasive in the EBS, produced a sequence of mineral assemblages from omphacite and lawsonite‐absent, epidote + glaucophane/ferroglaucophane + chlorite + phengite + titanite + quartz through albite + chlorite + glaucophane to lawsonite + albite + high‐Si phengite (Si = 3.6–3.7 a.p.f.u.) + glaucophane + epidote + quartz. In the PD facies metabasalts, the peak mineral assemblage, pumpellyite + chlorite + titanite + phengitic white mica (Si = 3.4–3.5 a.p.f.u.) + diopside appeared in the basaltic groundmass from reacting titaniferous augite and low‐Si phengite, with prehnite additionally producing pumpellyite in early vein domains. In the GS facies metabasalts, incomplete hydration of augite produced albite + epidote + actinolite + chlorite + titanite + phengite + augite mineral assemblage. Based on calculated TM(H2O), T–M(O2) (where M represents oxide mol.%) and PT pseudosections, peak PT conditions of LBS are estimated at ~11.5 kbar and ~340 °C, EBS at ~10 kbar, 325 °C and PD facies at ~6 kbar, 335 °C. Reconstructed metamorphic reaction pathways integrated with the results of PT pseudosection modelling define a near‐complete, hairpin, clockwise PT loop for the BS and a prograde PT path with a steep dP/dT for the PD facies rocks. Apparent low thermal gradient of 8 °C km?1 corresponding to a maximum burial depth of 40 km and the hairpin PT trajectory together suggest a cold and mature stage of an intra‐oceanic subduction zone setting for the Nagaland blueschists. The metamorphic constraints established above when combined with petrological findings from the ophiolitic massifs along the whole ITSZ suggest that intra‐oceanic subduction systems within the Neotethys between India and the Lhasa terrane/the Karakoram microcontinent were also active towards east between Indian and Burmese plates.  相似文献

The Fuscaldo assemblages show that in metabasites suitable for the production of glaucophane at higher pressures, amphibole poor(er) in Gl-molecule + albite + Al-rich chlorite is formed at lower pressure. Blue amphibole formed together with albite, chlorite and a Ca-silicate appears to have a fixed content of the Gl-molecule and of Ca2+, apart from the Fe2+/ R2+ ratio, which varies with host rock chemistry. The constant Gl-content indicates attainment of equilibrium, and is a function of T and especially P, so it may be used as a geobarometer. Glaucophane generally forms at the cost of albite+chlorite. In a P-T diagram the reaction is probably situated somewhat below the reaction albitejadeite+quartz, and has a smaller slope than the latter. The concomitant high-pressure character of glaucophane justifies reintroduction of Eskola's glaucophane-schist facies, of which glaucophane is critical.  相似文献

The high-pressure schist terranes of New Caledonia and Sanbagawa were developed along the oceanic sides of sialic forelands by tectonic burial metamorphism. The parent rocks were chemically similar, as volcanic-sedimentary trough or trench sequences, and metamorphic temperatures in both belts were 250° to 600° C. From phase equilibria curves, total pressures were higher for New Caledonia (6–15 kb) than for Sanbagawa (5–11 kb) and the estimated thermal gradients were 7–10° C/km and 15° C/km respectively.PT paths identify the higher pressure in New Caledonia (P differences 2 kb at 300° C and 4 kb at 550° C) with consequent contrast in progressive regional metamorphic zonation for pelites in the two areas: lawsonite-epidote-omphacite (New Caledonia) and chlorite-garnet-biotite (Sanbagawa). In New Caledonia the Na-amphibole is dominantly glaucophane and Na-pyroxenes associated with quartz are Jadeite (Jd95–100) and omphacite; in Sanbagawa the amphibole is crossite or riebeckite and the pyroxene is omphacite (Jd50). For both areas, garnet rims show increase in pyrope content with advancing grade, but Sanbagawa garnets are richer in almandine. Progressive assemblages within the two belts can be equated by such reactions as:New Caledonia Sanbagawa glaucophane+paragonite+H2Oalbite+chlorite+quartz glaucophane+epidote+H2Oalbite+chlorite+actinolite and the lower pressure Japanese associations appear as retrogressive phases in the New Caledonia epidote and omphacite zones.The contrasts inPT gradient, regional zonation and mineralogy are believed due to differences in the tectonic control of metamorphic burial: for New Caledonia, rapid obduction of an upper sialic plate over an inert oceanic plate and sedimentary trough; and for Sanbagawa, slower subduction of trench sediments beneath a relatively immobile upper plate.  相似文献

Abstract The Hercynian granitic basement which forms the Tenda Massif in NE Corsica represents part of the leading edge of the European Plate during middle-to-late Cretaceous (Eoalpine) high P metamorphism. The metamorphism of this basement, induced by the overthrusting of a blueschist facies (schistes lustrés) nappe, was confined to a major ductile shear zone (c. 1000m thick) within which deformation increases upwards towards the overlying nappe. Metamorphism within the basement mostly records lower blueschist facies conditions (crossite + epidote) except near the base of the shear zone where the greenschist facies assemblage albite + actinolitic amphibole has developed instead of crossite. Study of the primary mafic phase breakdown reactions within hornblende granodiorite reveals the following metamorphic zonation. Zone 1: biotite to chlorite. Towards zone 2: biotite to phengite. Zone 2: Hornblende to actinolitic Ca-amphibole + albite + sphene, and biotite to actinolitic Ca-amphibole + albite + phengite + Ti-ore + epidote. Zone 3: Hornblende to crossite + low Ti-biotite + phengite + sphene, and biotite to crossite + low Ti-biotite + phengite + Ti-ore + sphene ± epidote. P-T conditions at the base of the shear zone are estimated to have been 390-490°C at 600-900 M Pa (6-9kbar) and the Corsican basement is therefore deduced to have been buried to 20-30 km during metamorphism. This relatively shallow metamorphism contrasts with some other areas in the Western Alps where the Eoalpine event apparently buried the European continental crust to depths of 80 km or more. As there is no evidence for a long history of blueschist facies metamorphism prior to the involvement of the European continent, it is deduced that the Eoalpine blueschists were produced during the collision of the Insubric plate with Europe, rather than during Tethyan intraoceanic subduction. Coherent blueschist terrains such as the schistes lustres probably record buovant feature collision and obduction tectonics rather than any preceding oceanic subduction.  相似文献

The Tia Granodiorite, a Hillgrove Suite pluton in the southern New England Fold Belt, intruded complexly deformed metasediment and metabasite belonging to the Tia Complex, which at the time of intrusion had already been affected by two deformation events at low‐T moderate‐P metamorphic conditions and two overprinting deformation events at high‐T low‐P metamorphic conditions. Emplacement took place during D5 thrusting associated with limited uplift as low‐P amphibolite facies metamorphism prevailed. Large‐scale warping during D6 was followed by a second penetrative thrusting event (D7) that caused further uplift and was initiated under lower amphibolite facies conditions.

The granodiorite has been dated at ~ 300 Ma using magmatic zircon, an age which is thought to approximate the emplacement age and thus D5. Biotite grains associated with D7 uplift yield a Rb/Sr age of 264±1.3 Ma. D5 and D7 appear to have formed during one extended high‐T metamorphic event because intervening retrogression is lacking in spite of extensive hydrous fluxing, as indicated by numerous syn‐D6 quartz veins. This thermal event coincided with the opening of the extensional Permian basins.  相似文献

Dacitic to rhyolitic volcanic rocks of the Spruce Lake nappe experienced two phases of alkali-metasomatism as a result of fluids channelling along shear zones. The shear zones formed during a progressive, thrust-related deformation associated with underplating and incorporation of the volcanic rocks into the Brunswick subduction complex of northern New Brunswick. The fluids mainly represent chemically and isotopically modified seawater released by dewatering of the associated underthrusted shaly sedimentary rocks. Both phases of metasomatism weakened the felsic rocks, leading to strain localisation. Albitisation of felsic volcanic rocks as a result of Na-metasomatism during underthrusting facilitated formation of mylonites near peak high-pressure metamorphism (330–370°C, 600–800 MPa). The mylonites are preferentially preserved in the roof-thrust shear zone of the Spruce Lake nappe. Core-mantle structures, bulging and crystallographically preferred orientations indicate that albite behaved more ductilely than K-feldspar. The ductility of albite at these low temperatures is interpreted as a function of abundant intragranular fluids. Phengite-rich phyllonites formed after peak high–pressure metamorphism during uplift by out-of-sequence thrusting. These phyllonites are generally characterised by a slight gain in K and loss of Na and are best developed in the basal shear zones of the Spruce Lake nappe.  相似文献

Margarite is both abundant and widespread throughout a sequence of interstratified amphibolite, hornblendite, and metamorphosed anorthosite from the upper Lyvia River, central Fiordland. These rock types comprise part of a metamorphosed layered intrusion. Assemblages recorded from these rocks are the product of two distinct phases of metamorphism. First generation assemblages typically comprise plagioclase (An84–96), hornblende, kyanite, and minor corundum. Clinozoisite and chlorite occur as late stage breakdown products of plagioclase and hornblende. Margarite developed during the second phase of metamorphism.Within the corundum-bearing rocks replacement of corundum or plagioclase by margarite can be observed directly. On the basis of these observations the following reaction is evident: 1 corundum+1 anorthite+1H2O=1 margarite.In other assemblages the formation of margarite can be attributed to the breakdown of kyanite and clinozoisite according to the reaction: 2 kyanite+2 clinozoisite=1 margarite+3 anorthite.Margarite is found, however, to contain appreciable amounts of paragonite solid-solution (up to 28 mol%) and plagioclase produced (second generation) is not pure anorthite but of intermediate compositions (An46–62). The reaction therefore involves the introduction of both soda and silica. Margarite also crystallized independently of clinozoisite according to a reaction of the general form: 5 pargasite+17 kyanite+19 H2O =8 margarite+4 chlorite+7 plagioclase.Application of available experimental data suggests that the margarite formed between 550 and 720 ° C up to a maximum pressure of 9.5 kb. Whereas the involvement of albite component (second generation plagioclase) will tend to lower the temperatures and pressures necessary for the occurrence of margarite, this effect is partially offset by the significant amounts of paragonite end-member held within the margarite. An independent estimate of the metamorphic conditions in metapelites suggests that the introduction of albite lowers equilibration temperatures by about 2 ° C for every 1% albite.  相似文献

The Early Eocene to Early Oligocene tectonic history of the Menderes Massif involves a major regional Barrovian-type metamorphism (M1, Main Menderes Metamorphism, MMM), present only in the Palaeozoic-Cenozoic metasediments (the so-called “cover” of the massif), which reached upper amphibolite faciès with local anatectic melting at structurally lower levels of the cover rocks and gradually decreased southwards to greenschist facies at structurally higher levels. It is not present in the augen gneisses (the so called “core” of the massif), which are interpreted as a peraluminous granite deformed within a Tertiary extensional shear zone, and lie structurally below the metasediments. A pronounced regional (S1) foliation and approximately N-S trending mineral lineation (L1) associated with first-order folding (F1) were produced during D1 deformation coeval with the MMM. The S1 foliation was later refolded during D2 by approximately WNW-ESE trending F2 folds associated with S2 crenulation cleavage. It is now commonly believed that the MMM is the product of latest Palaeogene collision across Neo-Tethys and the consequent internal imbrication of the Menderes Massif area within a broad zone along the base of the Lycian Nappes during the Early Eocene-Early Oligocene time interval. However, the meso- and micro-structures produced during D1 deformation, the asymmetry and change in the intensity and geometry of the F2 folds towards the Lycian thrust front all indicate an unambiguous non-coaxial deformation and a shear sense of upper levels moving north. This shear sense is incompatible with a long-standing assumption that the Lycian Nappes were transported southwards over the massif causing its metamorphism. It is suggested here that the MMM results from burial related to the initial collision across the Neo-Tethys and Tefenni nappe emplacement, whereas associated D1 deformation and later D2 deformation are probably related to the northward backthrusting of the Lycian nappes.  相似文献

ABSTRACT Paragonite-bearing amphibolites occur interbedded with a garbenschist-micaschist sequence in the Austroalpine Schneeberg Complex, southern Tyrol. The mineral assemblage mainly comprises paragonite + Mg-hornblende/tschermakite + quartz + plagioclase + biotite + ankerite + Ti-phase + garnet ± muscovite. Equilibrium P–T conditions for this assemblage are 550–600°C and 8–10 kbar estimated from garnet–amphibole–plagioclase–ilmenite–rutile and Si contents of phengitic muscovites. In the vicinity of amphibole, paragonite is replaced by symplectitic chlorite + plagioclase + margarite +± biotite assemblages. Muscovite in the vicinity of amphibole reacts to form plagioclase + biotite + margarite symplectites. The reaction of white mica + hornblende is the result of decompression during uplift of the Schneeberg Complex. The breakdown of paragonite + hornblende is a water-consuming reaction and therefore it is controlled by the availability of fluid on the retrogressive P–T path. Paragonite + hornblende is a high-temperature equivalent of the common blueschist-assemblage paragonite + glaucophane in Ca-bearing systems and represents restricted P–T conditions just below omphacite stability in a mafic bulk system. While paragonite + glaucophane breakdown to chlorite + albite marks the blueschist/greenschist transition, the paragonite + hornblende breakdown observed in Schneeberg Complex rocks is indicative of a transition from epidote-amphibolite facies to greenschist facies conditions at a flatter P–T gradient of the metamorphic path compared to subduction-zone environments. Ar/Ar dating of paragonite yields an age of 84.5 ± 1 Ma, corroborating an Eoalpine high-pressure metamorphic event within the Austroalpine unit west of the Tauern Window. Eclogites that occur in the Ötztal Crystalline Basement south of the Schneeberg Complex are thought to be associated with this Eoalpine metamorphic event.  相似文献

Deformation fabrics in Proterozoic/Cambrian granitic rocks of the Çine nappe, and mid-Triassic granites of the Bozdag nappe constrain aspects of the tectonometamorphic evolution of the Menderes nappes of southwest Turkey. Based on intrusive contacts and structural criteria, the Proterozoic/Cambrian granitic rocks of the Çine nappe are subdivided into older orthogneisses and younger metagranites. The deformation history of the granitic rocks documents two major deformation events. An early, pre-Alpine deformation event (DPA) during amphibolite-facies metamorphism affected only the orthogneisses and produced predominantly top-to-NE shear-sense indicators associated with a NE-trending stretching lineation. The younger metagranites are deformed both by isolated shear zones, and by a major shear zone along the southern boundary of the Çine submassif. We refer to this Alpine deformation event as DA3. DA3 shear zones are associated with a N-trending stretching lineation, which formed during greenschist-facies metamorphism. Kinematic indicators associated with this stretching lineation reveal a top-to-south sense of shear. The greenschist-facies shear zones cut the amphibolite-facies structures in the orthogneisses. 207Pb/206Pb dating of magmatic zircons from a metagranite, which crosscuts orthogneiss containing amphibolite-facies top-to-NE shear-sense indicators, shows that DPA occurred before 547.2ǃ.0 Ma. Such an age is corroborated by the observation that mid-Triassic granites of the Çine and Bozdag nappes lack DPA structures. The younger, top-to-south fabrics formed most likely as a result of top-to-south Alpine nappe stacking during the collision of the Sakarya continent with Anatolia in the Eocene.  相似文献

The north-west Turkish blueschists represent a subducted passive continental margin sequence dominated by metaclastic rocks and marble. The depositional age of the blueschist protoliths are probably Palaeozoic to Mesozoic, while the age of the high-pressure/low-temperature metamorphism is Late Cretaceous. Blueschists are tectonically overlain by a volcanosedimentary sequence made up of accreted oceanic crustal material that locally shows incipient blueschist metamorphism and by spinel peridotite slices. The metaclastic rocks with regional jadeite and glaucophane, which comprise the lower part of the blueschist unit, make up an over 1000-m-thick coherent sequence in the Kocasu region of north-west Turkey. Rare metabasic horizons in the upper parts of the metaclastic sequence with sodic amphibole + Iawsonite but no garnet indicate lawsonite blueschist facies metamorphism. The blueschist metaclastics in the Kocasu region are practically free of calcium and ferric iron and closely approximate the NFMASH system in bulk composition. Two low-variance mineral assemblages (with quartz and phengite) are jadeite + glaucophane + chlorite + paragonite and chloritoid + glaucophane + paragonite. The metaclastics comprise up to several-metres-thick layers of jadeite schist with quartz, phengite and nearly 100 mol% jadeite. Phase relations in the metaclastics show that the chloritoid + glaucophane assemblage, even in Fe2+-rich compositions, is stable in the jadeite stability field. In the NFASH system the above assemblage without the accompanying garnet has a narrow thermal stability field. Mineral equilibria in the metaclastics involving chloritoid, glaucophane, jadeite, paragonite and chlorite indicate metamorphic P-T conditions of 20 ± 2 kbar and 430 ± 30 d? C, yielding geothermal gradients close to 5d? C km-1, one of the lowest geotherms recorded. Blueschists in the Kocasu region, which have been buried to 70 km depth, are tectonically overlain by the volcanosedimentary sequence and by peridotite buried not deeper than 30 km. Phengites from two jadeite schists were dated by Ar/Ar laser probe; they give an age of 88.5 ± 0.5 Ma, interpreted as the age of metamorphism. Blueschists and the overlying peridotite bodies are intruded by 48-53-Ma-old granodiorite bodies that were emplaced at 10 km depth. This suggests that the exhumation of blueschists by underplating of cold continental crust, and normal faulting at the blueschist-peridotite, interface occurred during the Late Cretaceous to Palaeocene (88-53 Ma).  相似文献
