Mineralogical data for xenoliths occurring as inclusions in the fissure erupted alkali basalts and the basanitic tuffs of Anjouan reveal three xenolith suites: 1) the lherzolites, 2) the dunites and wehrlites, 3) the gabbros and syenites. The dunite-wehrlite suite and the gabbro suite are shown to represent high-level cumulate sequences resulting from ankaramitic fractionation of the hy-normative shield-building lavas and cotecictic fractionation of the alkali basalt lavas respectively, whilst the syenitic xenoliths represent evolved high-level intrusions. Mineralogical and rare earth element (REE) data indicate that the most likely origin for the spinel lherzolite xenoliths is by extraction of a basaltic phase from spinel peridotite, leaving a light REE-poor spinel lherzolite residuum. REE models, constructed using model peridotite assemblages, imply that the hy-normative basalt lavas may be derived by partial melting of spinel peridotite at pressures of <20–25 kb leaving a residual lherzolite, and that the alkali basalt and basanite melts are formed by small degrees of melting of a garnet-peridotite source at pressures of >20–25 kb. The spinel lherzolite source for the hy-normative basalts has been accidentally sampled during explosive eruption of the alkali basalt and basanite magmas.  相似文献

Near-liquidus phase relationships of a spinel lherzolite-bearing olivine melilitite from Tasmania were investigated over a P, T range with varying , , and . At 30 kb under MH-buffered conditions, systematic changes of liquidus phases occur with increasing ( = CO2/CO2 +H2O+olivine melilitite). Olivine is the liquidus phase in the presence of H2O alone and is joined by clinopyroxene at low . Increasing eliminates olivine and clinopyroxene becomes the only liquidus phase. Further addition of CO2 brings garnet+orthopyroxene onto the liquidus together with clinopyroxene, which disappears with even higher CO2. The same systematic changes appear to hold at higher and lower pressures also, only that the phase boundaries are shifted to different . The field with olivine- +clinopyroxene becomes stable to higher with lower pressure and approaches most closely the field with garnet+orthopyroxene+clinopyroxene at about 27 kb, 1160 °C, 0.08 and 0.2 (i.e., 6–7% CO2+ 7–8% H2O). Olivine does not coexist with garnet+orthopyroxene+clinopyroxene under these MH-buffered conditions. Lower oxygen fugacities do not increase the stability of olivine to higher and do not change the phase relationships and liquidus temperatures drastically. Thus, it is inferred that olivine melilitite 2927 originates as a 5% melt (inferred from K2 O and P2O5 content) from a pyrolite source at about 27kb, 1160 dg with about 6–7% CO2 and 7–8% H2O dissolved in the melt. The highly undersaturated character of the melt and the inability to find olivine together with garnet and orthopyroxene on the liquidus (in spite of the close approach of the respective liquidus fields) can be explained by reaction relationships of olivine and clinopyroxene with orthopyroxene, garnet and melt in the presence of CO2.  相似文献

The positions of the liquidi and the near-liquidus phases of olivine-melilitite+CO2 have been determined under MH-buffered and furnace-buffered conditions up to 40 kb. It is found that CO2 alone lowers the liquidus compared to dry conditions, yet its influence is minor compared to H2O. The major role of CO2 is to favour the growth of orthopyroxene and garnet over that of olivine at least at high pressures. CO2-contents of glasses from experiments just above the liquidus (MH-buffered) were determined as 5.1 % at 10kb; 7.5 % at 20kb, 9.3 % at 30kb and 10–11 % (estimated) at 40 kb. Experiments on (pyrolite –40 % olivine)+H2O+CO2 show that CO2 occurs under mantle conditions as carbonate under subsolidus conditions and dissolved in a melt above the solidus. At 30kb, the solidus lies between 1,000 ° C and 1,050 ° C for vapour-saturated conditions, at and at .  相似文献

The Talasea Peninsula is composed of a chain of Quaternary volcanoes whose lavas range from basalt to rhyolite. The peninsula is situated in an orogenic environment and the lavas, while essentially calc-alkaline, show some differences from other orogenic suites on the Pacific rim. The most distinctive feature of the Talasea series is absolute iron enrichment in some lavas. Mineralogically, the andesites are characterized by phenocrysts of plagioclase, orthopyroxene, clinopyroxene and titanomagnetite, while the basalts lack titanomagnetite phenocrysts but contain olivine. The acid rocks have a mineralogy similar to that of the andesites, but also contain quartz, amphibole, biotite and ilmenite. The compositions of coexisting titanomagnetite and ilmenite in the acid lavas indicate equilibration temperatures in the range 920° to 860° C and oxygen fugacities ( ) above those of the fayalitemagnetite-quartz buffer assemblage. The mineralogical evidence supports the hypothesis of a crystal fractionation origin for this series and there is a possibility that the was more or less constant during the early stages of its evolution. The iron enriched lavas may be an offshoot from the main line of descent, resulting from near-surface fractionation, with the dominance of plagioclase in the crystal residuum producing an iron-rich liquid.  相似文献

Iron chlorites with compositions intermediate between the two end-members daphnite (Fe5Al2Si3O10(OH)8) and pseudothuringite (Fe4Al4Si2O10(OH)8) were synthesized from mixtures of reagent chemicals. The polymorph with a 7 Å basal spacing initially crystallized from these mixtures at 300 °C and 2 kb after two weeks. Conversion to a 14 Å chlorite required a further 6 weeks at 550 °C. Shorter conversion times were required at higher water pressures. The products contained up to 20% impurities.The maximum equilibrium decomposition temperature for iron chlorite, approximately 550 °C at 2kb, is at an between assemblages (1) and (2) listed below. Synthetic iron chlorite will break down by various reactions with variable P, T, and fugacity of oxygen. For the composition FeAlSi = 523, the sequence of high temperature breakdown products with increasing traversing the magnetite field for P total = =2kb is: (1) corierite+ fayalite+hercynite; (2) cordierite+fay alite+magnetite; (3) cordierite+magnetite+quartz; (4) magnetite+mullite+quartz. Almandine should replace cordierite in assemblages (1) and (2) but it did not nucleate. The significance of the relationship between iron cordierite and almandine in this system is discussed.At water pressures from 4 to 8.5 kb and at the nickel-bunsite buffer, iron chlorite+quartz break down to iron gedrite+magnetite with temperature 550 to 640 °C along the curve. At temperatures 50 °C greater and along a parallel curve, almandine replaces iron gedrite. For on this buffer curve, almandine is unstable below approximately 4 kb for temperatures to approximately 750 °C.  相似文献

The mineralogy and petrology of volcanic and plutonic rocks from the island of Grenada are described. The volcanic rocks include basanitoids, alkalic and subalkalic basalts, andesites and dacites. Phenocryst phases in the basanitoids and basalts are olivine (Fo90–71), zoned calcic augite, spinel ranging from ferrian pleonaste through chromite to titaniferous magnetite, and plagioclase. Some of the basalts contain pargasitic amphibole. Andesites and dacites generally contain hypersthene and augite, and one pigeonite-hypersthene-augite-bearing andesite was found. Apatite commonly occurs as a phenocryst in the andesites and dacites and quartz is present in some dacites as well as being a possible xenocryst in both alkalic and subalkalic basalts. Plutonic cumulates found as ejected fragments in tuffs and ashes are composed of variable proportions of olivine, magnetite, calcic augite, amphibole and plagioclase. One peridotitic (ol-cpx-opx) fragment was found but spinel or garnet peridotitis are absent. Despite the alkalic nature of the association, calcalkalic characteristics such as calcic plagioclase, restricted Feenrichment in coexisting pyroxenes and generally low TiO2 content relative to oceanic suites are present in Grenada. Estimates of conditions of equilibration of the basanitoids with potential upper mantle materials using the results of high-pressure experiments are compared with estimates from thermodynamic data. Equating and basanitoid with hypothetical garnet peridotite assemblages gives a pressure and temperature of equilibration in the region of 35–38 kbar and 1550–1625 ° K. Experimental results are not supportive of these estimates.  相似文献

Thermal aureoles surrounding intrusions of the Nain complex, Labrador, contain many unique or unusual mineral assemblages in aluminous gneisses and granulites, ironstones, and ultramafic rocks. Some of the limiting assemblages are (in addition to feldspars±pyrrhotite±ilmenite±graphite ±biotite±magnetite): Ga-Ol-Hy-Sp, Ga-Cd-Hy-Sp, Ga-Hy-Ol-Qz, Cd-Hy-Os-Qz, Ga-Cd-Sp-Si, Cd-Sp-Co-Si, Ga-Ol-Hy-Sp, Ga-Cd-Hy-Sp, Hy-Ol-Qz-Aug, and Ol-Hy-Sp(±Chl±Ca-amph±Aug). On the basis of some of these assemblages are (in addition to feldspars±pyrrhotite±ilmenite±graphite from 3.7–6.6 kbar and temperatures from 645–915 ° C. The paucity of hydrous phases, the preponderance of Ksp-Plag-Qz or even Cd-Ksp-Qz without evidence of a melt at these temperatures, the stable occurrence of osumilite, and the common presence of graphite suggest that was extremely low. The presence of graphite-pyrrhotite, the compositions of ilmenites, the compositions of coexisting Fe-Ti oxides, and other mineralogical data indicate the was relatively low and, despite the wide range in bulk compositions and rock types, may have followed an approximately buffered trend. It is possible that the magmas of the Nain complex may have acted as an external buffer for the aureole rocks. The unique nature of these mineral assemblages appears to be a function of the extremely low .  相似文献

Near-liquidus melting experiments were performed on a high-K latite at fO2's ranging from iron-wustite-graphite (IWG) to nickel-nickel oxide (NNO) in the presence of a C-O-H fluid phase. Clinopyroxene is a liquidus phase under all conditions. At IWG , the liquidus at 10 kb is about 1,150° C but is depressed to 1,025° C at NNO and . Phlogopite and apatite are near-liquidus phases, with apatite crystallizing first at pressures below 10 kb. Phlogopite is a liquidus phase only at NNO and high . Under all conditions the high-K latites show a large crystallization interval with phlogopite becoming the dominant crystalline phase with decreasing temperature. Increasing fO2 affects phlogopite crystallization but the liquidus temperature is essentially a function of . The chemical compositions of the near-liquidus phases support formation of the high-K latites under oxidizing conditions (NNO or higher) and high . It is concluded from the temperature of the H2O-saturated liquidus at 10 kb, the groundmass: crystal ratio and presence of chilled latite margins around some xenoliths that the Camp Creek high-K latite magma passed thru the lower crust at temperatures of 1,000° C or more.  相似文献

Two metamorphic isograds cut across graphitic schist near Pecos Baldy, New Mexico. The southern isograd marks the first coexistence of staurolite with biotite, whereas the northern isograd marks the first coexistence of andalusite with biotite. The isograds do not record changes in temperature or pressure. Instead, they record a regional gradient in the composition of the metamorphic fluid phase. Ortega Quartzite, which contains primary hematite, lies immediately north of the graphitic schist. Mineral compositions within the schist change gradually toward the quartzite, reflecting gradients in and . The chemical potential gradients, locally as high as 72 cal/m in and 9 cal/m in , controlled the positions of the two mapped isograds. The staurolite-biotite isograd records where fell below 0.80, at near 10–23 bars; the andalusite-biotite isograd records where fell below 0.25, at near 10–22 bars. Dehydration and oxidation were coupled by graphite-fluid equilibrium.The chemical potential gradients apparently formed during metamorphism, as graphite in schist reacted with hematite in quartzite. Local oxidation of graphite formed CO2 which triggered dehydration reactions along the schistquartzite contact. This process created a C-O-H fluid which infiltrated into overlying rocks. Upward infiltration, local fluid-rock equilibration and additional infiltration proceeded until the composition of the infiltrating fluid evolved to that in equilibrium with the infiltrated rock. This point occurs very close to the staurolite-biotite isograd. Pelitic rocks structurally above this isograd show no petrographic evidence of infiltration, even though calculations indicate that volumetric fluid/rock ratios may have exceeded 15 and thin, rare calc-silicate beds show extensive K-metasomatism and quartz veining.  相似文献

Euhedral crystals of ulvöspinel are found in many of the native-iron-bearing xenoliths from the basalt of Bühl near Kassel (West Germany) and Ovifak on Disko Island (West Greenland). The typical assemblage of these xenoliths at both localities is: native Fe, troilite, cohenite, ulvöspinel, ilmenite, olivine, and plagioclase, as well as silicate glass containing droplets of former Fe and troilite melt. The ulvöspinel subsolidus textures and intergrowths also indicate identical cooling histories for the xenoliths in both cases. Ulvöspinel crystallized after the formation of iron, but still above the Fe-FeS eutectic at 988° C. A subsequent strong drop in oxygen fugacity revealed partial breakdown of ulvöspinel according to the reaction .Microprobe analyses of a Bühl xenolith indicate that ulvöspinel contains up to 4.7 w.t.% MnO, while olivine compositions correspond to Fa64–74Fo12–24Te12–15. The entire xenolith contains 1.9 w.t.% MnO. This fact, together with the geological evidence and the occurrence of corroded quartz relicts within some of the xenoliths provides clear evidence for reduction under near-surface conditions in a blast-furnace-like process. The reducing agent was coal from the Tertiary seams cut by the erupting basalt, while the xenolith source material most probably was spherosiderite, which is very common in the coals and would explain the high MnO content. Consequently, the presence of cohenite is not necessarily an indicator of high pressure.The analogies between the Bühl and Ovifak localities and their xenoliths strongly suggest a similar formation through near surface reduction and not derivation from the mantle.  相似文献

Many of the peridotite xenoliths included in the San Quintin (Baja California Norte, Mexico) quaternary alkali-basalts have undergone a very intense shear deformation (deviatoric stresses up to 0.1 GPa), hence a first-order classification into coarse-grained lherzolites and deformed peridotites (porphyroclastic and mosaic textures) has been applied. All of these rocks show a very limited compositional variability in the Mg/(Mg+Fe2+) ratios (olivine: 0.894–0.905±0.005; orthopyroxene: 0.899–0.9105±0.005), and the observed trends in the Cr/(Cr+Al) spinel ratios (from 0.1 to 0.6) can be interpreted as resulting from gradual partial melting followed by homogenization of the bulk phases. A later and less accentuated melting event is also evidenced by internal core-rim variations in the spinels from a few samples and ascribed to the thermal effect of the host lava.Simultaneous application of exchange geothermometers which give the latest equilibrium temperatures (i.e. at the time of eruption: Fe-Mg exchange between olivine and spinel) and of pyroxene transfer thermobarometers yields two distinct behaviours: the porphyroclastic and mosaic peridotites record an event of deformation and recrystallization and were equilibrated at 800°–950° C and P-1 GPa at the time of eruption, but have also retained evidence of higher temperatures (1000°–1050° C) and pressures; the coarsegrained lherzolites, which yield conditions of 1000°–1050° C and P<-2 GPa at the time of eruption, were originally equilibrated at higher temperature and pressure conditions and were subsequently re-equilibrated to 1000°–1050° C by solid-state bulk diffusion, without exsolution.Clinopyroxenite veins provide evidence of magma injection into the host-peridotite, before deformation but after the major melting event.To explain the simultaneous sampling of both groups of peridotites by the San Quintin alkali basalts, we suggest that the ascending magma reached the critical limit for hydraulic fracturing in the coarse-grained lherzolites. At shallower depth, the magma cross-cut an active shear zone, sampling prophyroclastic and mosaic samples of the strained peridotites.Our model is consistent with the regional tectonic context: upwelling of the mantle by isostatic re-equilibration after the end of the subduction processes and subsequent opening of the California Gulf. The only questionable parameter of the model remains the geometry of the shearzone, high or low angle orientation.  相似文献

Voluminous low temperature rhyolitic magmas in New Zealand   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
The glassy acid pumices, lavas and ignimbrites of the Pleistocene-Recent Central volcanic region of New Zealand contain iron-titanium oxide microphenocrysts, whose composition has been determined. Thirteen coexisting titanomagnetite-ilmenite pairs (all onephase and homogeneous) give two groups of equilibration temperatures: 735–780° C for amphibole-bearing rhyolites, and 860–890° C for very young non-amphibole-bearing pumices. O18/O16 analyses of coexisting phenocrysts from five amphibole-bearing rhyolites give estimated temperatures in the range 695–860° C, with an average of approximately 780° C.Using Zen's (1971) thermodynamic data on anthophyllite, the fugacity of water has been calculated for two rhyolites with cummingtonite-orthopyroxene-quartz phenocrysts; at 735° C and 745° C, fH2O is 1100 and 1300 bars respectively. These values are consistent with that derived for an analysed phenocryst assemblage of biotite-sanidine-magnetite. As all the investigated rhyolites contain phenocrysts of orthopyroxene and magnetite, it is suggested that the small increase in of the low-temperature amphibole assemblages in comparison to the amphibole-free assemblages is caused by higher silica activity, as quartz phenocrysts are absent in the high-temperature amphibole-free rhyolites.The existence of large-scale rhyolitic magmas, with phenocryst contents ranging from 0–40 %, at temperatures in the lower part of the magmatic range, is interpreted to be consistent with previously suggested models of upper crustal anatexis in New Zealand, in which the breakdown of micas contributed the water necessary for partial melting.Details of the occurrence and chemistry of the cummingtonite phenocrysts are given in the appendix.  相似文献

A substantial range of petrologic rock types has erupted on the accreting plate boundary near 21° N on the East Pacific Rise (EPR). Young olivine basalts have Fo89-86 phenocrysts, low bulk TiO2 (1.1–1.3%), Ba (7–10 ppm), and high Ni contents (>100 ppm). Older plagioclase-olivine-pyroxene (POP) basalts have Fo86-81 phenocrysts, high TiO2 (1.4–1.7%), Ba (9–40 ppm), and low Ni (<100 ppm). The youngest olivine basalts erupt immediately around a segmented axial fissure system. Progressively older, more fractionated POP basalts have spread farther from the same fissure system, producing a stratigraphically-controlled zonal pattern of basalt type distribution around the eruptive fissures. A topographic and morphologic en echelon displacement of the ridge axis fissure of 1.7 km to the NW near 20°54N offsets this zonal distribution pattern. Low pressure crystal fractionation of olivine, plagioclase, and clinopyroxene (251) from an olivine basalt parent would yield POP basalts of the observed Zr, Ti, Y, P and major element chemistry. However very incompatible elements Ba and K are too variably enriched in POP basalts for this model to be viable. Small, variable degrees of mantle partial melting is not a viable model either because of the substantial depletion of Ni which correlates with incompatible element enrichment and because of the precise low pressure cotectic character of POP basalts. The in situ fractionation model of Langmuir (1987) can explain these features. The relative abundance of fractionated lavas, their small-scale areal chemical zonation, the petrochemical correlation between types, and geophysical evidence point to the existence of shallow fractionating magma reservoirs beneath the EPR at 21° N.  相似文献

Ignimbrites from the central North Island consist mainly of glass or its devitrified product (70–95%); their phenocryst mineralogy is varied and includes plag., hyp., ti-mag., ilm., aug., hblende, biot., san., qtz, ol., with accessory apatite, zircon and pyrrhotite. The Fe-Mg minerals can be used to divide the ignimbrites into four groups with hyp.+aug. reflecting high quench temperatures and biot.+hblende +hyp.+aug., low quench temperatures. Oxygen fugacities lie above the QMF buffer curve and even in ignimbrites with low crystal contents the solid phases apparently buffered fO2. Some ignimbrites contain the assemblage actinolite, gedrite, magnetite and hematite, reflecting post-eruption oxidation. The mineralogy also allows estimation of using pyrrhotite and thence , . The assemblage biotite-sanidine can be used to estimate and thence . Water fugacity is calculated in a variety of ways using both biotite and hornblende as well as the combining reaction . It is high and approaches P total in most ignimbrites (~4kb) but is lower in unwelded pumice breccias. Comparison of temperature estimates using mineral geothermometers for the various phenocryst phases suggests that the ignimbrite magmas showed temperature differences of 60–100 °C and pressure differences of several kilobars. Individual magma chambers therefore, would have extended over several kilometres vertically. The chemical potential of water may have been constant through the magma.  相似文献

The Mogan and Fataga formations on the island of Gran Canaria, Canary Islands, represent a sequence of approximately 30 intercalated pyroclastic and lava flows (total volume about 500 km3 dense-rock equivalent) including subalkaline rhyolitic, peralkaline rhyolitic and trachytic pyroclastic flows, nepheline trachyte lavas and a small volume of alkali basaltic lavas and tephra deposits. The eruption of the intermediate to silicic rocks of the Mogan and Fataga formations follows the roughly 4 Ma duration of basaltic shield volcanism. The most common assemblage in the evolved (Mogan and Fataga) rocks is anorthoclase+ edenitic amphibole+ilmenite+magnetite±augite±hypersthene +apatite+pyrrhotite. A few flows also contain plagioclase, biotite, or sphene. Coexisting Fe-Ti oxides yield equilibrium temperatures between 835 and 930° C and log between –11.2 and –12.6. The lowermost pyroclastic flow of the Mogan formation is zoned from a rhyolitic base (848° C) to a basaltic top (931° C). Unit P1 has an oxygen isotope feldspar-magnetite temperature (850° C) very close to its Fe-Ti oxide temperature. One of the youngest Mogan flows is zoned from a comendite (836° C) at the base to a comenditic trachyte (899° C) at the top. The Fataga formation pyroclastic flows show only slight compositional zonation, and one flow has the same Fe-Ti oxide compositions at top and base.Calculations using the reaction 1/3 magnetite+SiO2 (melt)=ferrosilite+1/6 O2 indicate total pressures of 1–4 (±3) kb for six of the Mogan flows and one of the Fataga flows. For four of the pyroclastic flows, equilibria involving tremolite-SiO2-diopside-enstatite-H2O and phlogopite-SiO2-sanidine-enstatite-H2O imply water contents of 0.9 to 2.6 (±0.5) wt% and between 80 and 610 bars, which indicates that magma within the Tejeda reservoir was H2O-undersaturated throughout the entire history of Mogan to Fataga volcanism. The fluorine contents of amphibole, biotite, and apatite, and chlorine contents of apatite reveal thatf HF/ andf HCl/ high compared to most igneous rocks and are consistent with the peralkaline nature of most of the volcanics. Thef HCl estimate for one flow is 10–2 to 10–1 bars andf HF for six of the flows ranges from about 10–1 to 6 bars. Pyrrhotite compositions yield estimates for log between –1 and –3, log between –2 and 1.5, and log between 0.5 and 3, which fall in the range of most intermediate to silicic systems. The lack of a systematic trend with time for magma composition, Fe-Ti oxide temperatures, water contents, phenocryst abundances, and ferromagnesian phase composition indicate that the Tejeda magmatic system was open and kept at nearly the same conditions by the periodic addition of more primitive melts.The intensive thermodynamic parameters estimated from coexisting phenocryst equilibria are used to constrain the eruption dynamics based on solution of the conservation equations for a vapor plus pyroclast mixture. The estimates of magma reservoir temperature, pressure, and water concentration, when combined with a one-dimensional fluid dynamical model of a pyroclastic eruption, imply that the velocities of the ash flows at the vent exit were on the order of 100 to 200 m s–1, and the mass flow rates were about 107 kg s–1 for an assumed vent radius of 10 m.  相似文献

Clinochlore, which is, within the limits of error, the thermally most stable member of the Mg-chlorites, breaks down at = P tot to the assemblage enstatite+forsterite+spinel+H2O along a univariant curve located at 11 kb, 838 ° C; 15kb, 862 ° C; and 18 kb, 880 ° C (±1 kb ±10 ° C). At water pressures above that of an invariant point at 20.3 kb and 894 ° C involving the phases clinochlore, enstatite, forsterite, spinel, pyrope, and hydrous vapor, clinochlore disintegrates to pyrope+forsterite+spinel+H2O. The resulting univariant curve has a steep, negative dP/dT slope of –930 bar/ °C at least up to 35 kb.Thus, given the proper chemical environment, Mg-chlorites have the potential of appearing as stable phases within the earth's upper mantle to maximum depths between about 60 and 100 km depending on the prevailing undisturbed geotherm, and to still greater depths in subduction zones. However, unequivocal criteria for mantle derived Mg-chlorites are difficult to find in ultrabasic rocks.  相似文献

1. Introduction The depth of source of Cenozoic basalts and the genesis of mantle xenoliths in eastern China have been widely discussed by many geoscientists. There were basically two main opinions: one was that the relationship of basalts and the peridotite xenoliths are melt and residues (Cong et al, 1982; Liu et al, 1985; Qiu et al, 1986; E et al, 1987; Chi et al, 1988; Deng et al, 1988), and pyroxenite and gabrro enclaves are accumulation of fractional crystallization (Qiu et al, 1986;…  相似文献

Quaternary alkali olivine basalts and nephelinites from the Hoggar area (Southern Algeria) contain numerous lherzolite inclusions. The investigated nodules have been classified into three textural categories: coarse, porphyroclastic and granuloblastic. Microprobe analyses have been carried out on the coexisting phases (olivine, clinopyroxene, orthopyroxene, spinel, pargasite, Al rich glass) from 10 selected samples, with a special attention to pyroxene porphyroclasts which are zoned in Al and Cr. Most of the porphyroclastic xenoliths contain secondary pargasite (or its breakdown products) which is thought to reflect a metasomatic event in mantle conditions. Equilibrium temperatures and pressures have been calculated for the three groups, using the single-pyroxene method: the coarse samples have been equilibrated at higher pressures (20–25 kb) and temperatures (1,000° C–1,100° C) than the granuloblastic samples (about 10 kb and 900° C); with regards to the porphyroclastic xenoliths, the estimated T and P have been related to two stages of crystallization (corresponding to porphyroclasts and neoblasts). Relationships between phase compositions, rock-textures and metasomatism are briefly discussed.  相似文献

The partition of Ni between olivine and monosulfide-oxide liquid has been investigated at 1300–1395° C, =10–8-9–10–6.8, and =10–2.0–10–0.9, over the composition range 20–79 mol. % NiS. The product olivine compositions varied from Fo98 to Fo59 and from 0.06 to 3.11 wt% NiO. The metal/sulfur ratio of the sulfide-oxide liquid increases with increase in , decrease in , and increase in NiS content. The Ni/Fe exchange reaction has been perfectly reversed using natural olivine and pure forsterite as starting materials. The FeO and NiO contents of olivine from runs equilibrated at the same and form isobaric distributions with NiS content, which, to a first approximation, are dependent at constant temperature and total pressure on a variable term, –0.5 log ( / ). The Ni/Fe distribution coefficient (K D3) exhibits only a weak decrease from 35 to 29 with increase in from the IW buffer to close to the FMQ buffer. At values higher than FMQ, the sulfide-oxide liquid has the approximate composition (Ni,Fe)3±xS2K D358. The present K D3 vs O/(S+O) data define a trend which extrapolates to K D320 at 10 wt% oxygen in the sulfide-oxide liquid. The compositions of olivine and Ni-Cu sulfides associated with early-magmatic basic rocks and komatiites are consistent, at 1400° C, with a value of -log ( / ) of about 7.7, which is equivalent to 0.0 wt% oxygen in the hypothesized immiscible sulfide-oxide liquid. Therefore, K D3 would not be reduced significantly from the 30 to 35 range for sulfide-oxide liquids with low oxygen contents.  相似文献

In the Rogers Pass area of British Columbia the almandine garnet isograd results from a reaction of the form: 5.31 ferroan-dolomite+8.75 paragonite+4.80 pyrrhotite+3.57 albite+16.83 quartz+1.97 O2=1.00 garnet+16.44 andesine+1.53 chlorite+2.40 S2+1.90 H2O+10.62 CO2. The coefficients of this reaction are quite sensitive to the Mn content of ferroan-dolomite.Experimental data applied to mineral compositions present at the isograd, permits calculation of two intersecting P, T equilibrium curves. P=29088–39.583 T is obtained for the sub-system paragonite-margarite (solid-solution), plagioclase, quartz, ferroan-dolomite, and P=28.247 T–14126 is obtained for the sub-system epidote, quartz, garnet, plagioclase. These equations yield P=3898 bars and T=638° K (365° C). These values are consistent with the FeS content of sphalerite in the assemblage pyrite, pyrrhotite, sphalerite and with other estimates for the area.At these values of P and T the composition of the fluid phase in equilibrium with graphite in the system C-O-H-S during the formation of garnet is estimated as: bars, bars, bars, bars, bars, bars, bars, bars, , bars, bars.  相似文献
