本文报道吉隆北喜马拉雅地区马拉山穹窿核部浅色花岗岩的锆石SHRIMP U-Pb和白云母激光40Ar/39 Ar年代学研究.花岗岩U-Pb年龄显示,穹窿核部浅色花岗岩岩浆活动(深熔及侵位)发生于～30Ma至～17Ma,其中最年轻的U-Pb年龄(17Ma)以及花岗岩白云母40Ar/39Ar年龄(17～15Ma)指示了马拉山穹窿的最后岩浆侵位时间及可能的穹窿冷却事件.已有研究表明,北喜马拉雅片麻岩穹窿带(NHGD)与藏南拆离系(STDS)中浅色花岗岩具有相似的最早侵位年龄,即～35 Ma,而STDS下盘U-Pb年龄老于35Ma的浅色花岗岩为增厚地壳重熔成因,表明北喜马拉雅在 ～35Ma地壳构造体制由挤压转为伸展,并暗示在始新世-渐新世转换期可能存在一更广泛意义的地质事件.～35 Ma以前增厚导致中下地壳部分熔融,形成中下地壳渠道流,渠道流活动触发增厚造山楔的垮塌,形成STDS.STDS的伸展减薄引发更大规模浅色花岗岩侵位,花岗岩底辟作用形成了NHGD,本文最年轻U-Pb年龄及40Ar/39Ar年龄(17～15Ma)即代表马拉山的底辟与穹窿作用,之后的构造体制由东西向伸展所取代(始于～13Ma).  相似文献

Metasomatic and Sr-isotopic changes, associated with formation of zoned alteration halos along hydrothermal veins, are documented for a gneiss from the Artenberg quarry near Steinach (Kinzigtal, Schwarzwald, SW Germany). Veins are postorogenic, SW-NE-oriented, and cut straight through metaquartzdioritic Variscan gneiss, where flow of low-temperature fluids (～100–200°C) caused adularia-quartz-sericite-type alteration. Fluid-rock interaction occurred nearly 50 Ma after Variscan metamorphism, as constrained by a Rb–Sr multimineral isochron for unaltered gneiss of 327.1?±?3.1 Ma, and by two independent ages of 279.2?±?3.1 Ma and 274?±?13 Ma, based on Rb–Sr systematics of late-stage quartz from the veins. In a profile from unaltered gneiss towards a vein, alteration-induced mineralogical changes correlate with metasomatic net addition of K, Rb, and Cl to the alteration zone, combined with net loss of Na, Ca, and Sr. Strontium isotopes give a more detailed insight into the fluid-rock interaction process. 87Sr/86Sr ratios in a profile across the alteration zone are incompatible with simple Sr leaching but reflect partial replacement of the rocks’ Sr by fluid-derived Sr, the isotopic composition of which varied with time. Early fluids, with high 87Sr/86Sr ratios compared to unaltered gneiss, evolved into fluids with somewhat lower ratios, and finally reached a second maximum in 87Sr/86Sr ratios. This Sr-isotopic fluid evolution is equally revealed by the mineral sequence of the vein mineralization. It appears that the compositional evolution of the fluids correlates with the sequence of mineral breakdown reactions in the gneissic host rock, and that the Sr-isotopic evolution of the fluids can be fully explained as the result of internal, progressive reaction of fluid with the local rocks. Results also show that the spatial distributions of Sr isotopes in metasomatic alteration zones may reflect the complex evolution of fluid-rock interaction systems, and ultimately constrain the factors controlling both fluid compositions and alteration patterns.  相似文献

Constraining magnitudes of mechanical and thermo-mechanical parameters of rocks and shear zones are the important goals in structural geology and tectonics (Talbot in J Struct Geol 21:949–957, 1999). Such parameters aid dynamic scaling of analogue tectonic models (Ramberg in Gravity, deformation and the Earth’s crust in theory, experiments and geological applications, 2nd edn. Academic Press, London, 1981), which are useful to unravel tectonics in further details (Schultz-Ela and Walsh in J Struct Geol 24:247–275, 2002). The channel flow extrusion of the Higher Himalayan Shear Zone (HHSZ, = Higher Himalaya) can be explained by a top-to-S/SW simple shear (i.e. the D2 deformation) in combination with a pressure gradient induced flow against gravity. Presuming its Newtonian incompressible rheology with parallel inclined boundaries, the viscosity (μ) of this shear zone along a part of the Himalayan chain through India, Nepal and Bhutan is estimated to vary widely between ~1016 and 1023 Pa s, and its Prandtl number (P r ) within ~1021–1028. The estimates utilized ranges of known thickness (6–58 km) of the HHSZ, that of its top subzone of ductile shear of normal shear sense (STDSU: 0.35–9.4 km), total rate of slip of its two boundaries (0.7–131 mm year?1), pressure gradient (0.02–6 kb km?1), density (2.2–3.1 g cm?3) and thermal diffusivity (0.5 × 10?6–2.1 × 10?6 m s?2) along the orogenic trend. Considering most of the parameters specifically for the Sutlej section (India), the calculated viscosity (μ) and the Prandtl number (P r ) of the HHSZ are deduced to be μ: ~1017–1023 Pa s and P r  ~ 1022–1028. The upper limits of the estimated viscosity ranges are broadly in conformity with a strong Tibetan mid-crust from where a part of the HHSZ rocks extruded. On the other hand, their complete ranges match with those for its constituent main rock types and partly with those for the superstructure and the infrastructure. The estimated mechanical and thermo-mechanical parameters of the HHSZ will help to build dynamically scaled analogue models for the Himalayan deformation of the D2–phase.  相似文献

辽东半岛东北部宽甸地区出露大面积南辽河群变质表壳岩系,本文通过对其中黑云石英片岩、含电气石浅粒岩和花岗质片麻岩进行精确的锆石LA-ICP-MSU-Pb定年及微区痕量元素分析,并结合锆石阴极发光(CL)图像研究来制约其原岩形成时代和变质时代,进而探讨胶-辽-吉活动带的大地构造属性。Cl图像显示锆石可以分为三类,第一类无核边结构,呈灰黑色均质特征;第二类发育核边结构,核部不发育或具弱生长环带,第三类锆石整体或者核部发育明显生长环带或具条痕状吸收特点,而后两类多数发育灰色均质边,与第一类特征一致。微区痕量元素分析结果显示,灰色均质锆石或边部具有高U(731.2×10-6～1383×10-6)、低Th(51.09～85.15×10-6)和Th/U(0.06～0.07)等特征,为变质成因;第二类锆石核部具有较高Th(97.68～219.7×10-6)和Th/U(0.21～0.27),为岩浆成因;第三类具有高Th(249.6×10-6～469.4×10-6)和Th/U(0.60～0.74),为岩浆成因。定年结果显示,所有测点均位于谐和线上或附近,三类锆石207Pb/206Pb年龄分别介于1878～1903Ma,2011～2043Ma和2082～3285Ma,前两者峰期年龄分别为1885Ma和2035Ma,表明该区南辽河群的原岩形成于～2035Ma之后,而峰期变质作用应发生在～1885Ma,其沉积作用应发生于2035～1885Ma之间;第三类锆石年龄区域上与古元古代辽吉花岗岩、火山岩及古老结晶基底年龄相吻合,暗示它们为南辽河群提供重要物源。结合前人有关辽吉花岗岩及区域构造变形、变质作用等资料,本文研究认为辽东半岛东北部宽甸地区南辽河群应形成于伸展的构造环境。  相似文献

U/Pb SHRIMP ages of nine Variscan leucocratic orthogneisses from the central Tauern Window (Austria) reveal three distinct pulses of magmatism in Early Carboniferous (Visean), Late Carboniferous (Stephanian) and Early Permian, each involving granitoid intrusions and a contemporaneous opening of volcano-sedimentary basins. A similar relationship has been reported for the Carboniferous parts of the basement of the Alps further to the west, e.g. the “External massifs” in Switzerland. After the intrusion of subduction-related, volcanic-arc granitoids (374?±?10?Ma; Zwölferkogel gneiss), collisional intrusive-granitic, anatectic and extrusive-rhyolitic/dacitic rocks were produced over a short interval at ca. 340?Ma (Augengneiss of Felbertauern: 340?±?4?Ma, Hochweißenfeld gneiss: 342?± 5?Ma, Falkenbachlappen gneiss: 343?±?6?Ma). This Early Carboniferous magmatism, which produced relatively small volumes of melt, can be attributed to the amalgamation of the Gondwana-derived “Tauern Window” terrane with Laurussia–Avalonia. Probably due to the oblique nature of the collision, transtensional phenomena (i.e. volcano-sedimentary troughs and high-level intrusives) and transpressional regimes (i.e. regional metamorphism and stacked nappes with anatexis next to thrust planes) evolved contemporaneously. The magmas are mainly of the high-K I-type and may have been generated during a short phase of decompressional melting of lithospheric mantle and lower crustal sources. In the Late Carboniferous, a second pulse of magmatism occurred, producing batholiths of calc-alkaline I-type granitoids (e.g. Venediger tonalite: 296?±?4?Ma) and minor coeval bodies of felsic and intermediate volcanics (Heuschartenkopf gneiss: 299?±?4?Ma, Peitingalm gneiss: 300?±?5?Ma). Prior to this magmatism, several kilometres of upper crust must have been eroded, because volcano-sedimentary sequences hosting the Heu- schartenkopf and Peitingalm gneisses rest unconformably on 340-Ma-old granitoids. The youngest (Permian) period of magma generation contains the intrusion of the S-type Granatspitz Central Gneiss at 271?±?4?Ma and the extrusion of the rhyolitic Schönbachwald gneiss protolith at 279?±?9?Ma. These magmatic rocks may have been associated with local extension along continental wrench zones through the Variscan orogenic crust or with a Permian rifting event. The Permian and the above-mentioned Late Carboniferous volcano-sedimentary sequences were probably deposited in intra-continental graben structures, which survived post-Variscan uplift and Alpine compressional tectonics.  相似文献

Abstract

The Orlica-?nie?nik dome comprises large orthogneiss bodies interbedded with amphiblite-grade metasediments and minor metavolcanics. New U-Pb and Pb-Pb SHRIMP zircon ages for two major gneiss units of the dome, the ?nie?nik and Giera?tów gneiss, yielded similar ages of ca. 500 Ma. This is interpreted to reflect the magmatic crystallization age from the same or similar igneous precursors, in agreement with the geochemical characteristics of these rocks. Some zircon cores in both gneisses, interpreted to be inherited xenocrysts, have ages of ca. 530–540 Ma, and, additionally, of ca. 565 Ma and 2.6 Ga in the ?nie?nik gneiss. Igneous grains in both gneiss types have high-U rims, which are dark under cathodoluminescence. They are much better developed in the Giera?tow gneiss and they yield a well-defined weighted mean U-Pb age of 342 ± 6 Ma. These high-U rims are interpreted to have grown close to the peak of HT metamorphism which is responsible for the migmatitic texture of the Giera?tow gneiss. The Visean HT-LP metamorphism in the Orlica-?nie?nik dome is interpreted as a result of rapid uplift and decompression due to overthrusting of high grade rocks over the Moravo-Silesian nappe pile. Our data support geodynamic models that ascribe a predominant influence in the tectonic evolution of the West Sudetes to the Variscan oro- genic events. This is suggested by the inheritance of zircon xenocrysts from the Cadomian basement and by the Late Cambrian- Early Ordovician magmatic event, both typical of the Armorican terrane assemblage, as well as by the Early Carboniferous age of the metamorphism. © 2000 Éditions scientifiques et médicales Elsevier SAS  相似文献

Lava solidification is controlled by two mechanisms: external cooling and gas exsolution, the latter inducing crystallization due to increasing liquidus temperature. The andesite lava dome of the Soufriere Hills Volcano, Montserrat, is an extrusion dominated by crystallization caused by gas exsolution where cooling is unimportant in controlling emplacement. In the magma chamber the magma has an estimated viscosity of 7 × 106 Pa s. During ascent, gas exsolution caused the magma to extrude in a highly crystalline state, with only 5–15% residual melt, viscosities in the range 1013–1014 Pa s and mechanical strength > 1 MPa. Deformation can be heterogeneous with extrusion along shear zones. Rheological stiffening in the upper conduit also causes large overpressures, shallow seismicity, and cyclic patterns of dome extrusion. Gas-rich porphyritic andesites tend to be the least mobile kind of lava, because transition from magma into hot crystalline material was reached during ascent.  相似文献

The Khor Arbaat basin is the main source of potable water supply for the more than 750,000 inhabitants of Port Sudan, eastern Sudan. The variation in hydraulic conductivity and storage capacity is due to the heterogeneity of the sediments, which range from clay and silt to gravely sand and boulders. The water table rises during the summer and winter rainy seasons; it reaches its lowest level in the dry season. The storage capacity of the Khor Arbaat aquifer is estimated to be 21.75?×?106 m3. The annual recharge through the infiltration of flood water is about 1.93?×?106 m3. The groundwater recharge, calculated as underground inflow at the ‘upper gate’, is 1.33?×?105 m3/year. The total annual groundwater recharge is 2.06?×?106 m3. The annual discharge through underground outflow at the ‘lower gate’ (through which groundwater flows onto the coastal plain) is 3.29?×?105 m3/year. Groundwater discharge due to pumping from Khor Arbaat basin is 4.38?×?106 m3/year on average. The total annual groundwater discharge is about 4.7?×?106 m3. A deficit of 2.6?×?106 m3/year is calculated. Although the total annual discharge is twice the estimated annual recharge, additional groundwater flow from the fractured basement probably balances the annual groundwater budget since no decline is observed in the piezometric levels.  相似文献

A number of gneiss-cored domes and antiforms are exposed along the regional strike-slip Najd fault system in the Arabian Shield and the eastern desert of Egypt. The mode of origin is still controversial, although plausible comparisons with modern metamorphic core complexes were made in some well-studied areas. The Kirsh dome is located within the major Ar Rika shear zone and consists of a core of orthogneiss/migmatite and an envelope of paragneisses with locally abundant kyanite-bearing quartzites. The dome is surrounded by the low-grade metasediments of the Murdama Group and is bound from the south by a low-angle dip-slip fault. Beyond the southern strand of the Ar Rika Fault is the Kibdi Basin which hosts unmetamorphosed sediments belonging to the Jibalah Group; this group occupies scattered pull-apart basins closely associated with releasing bends along the Najd fault system. Little dating has been done on the gneiss domes of the Arabian Shield; however, recent dates from similar structures in the eastern desert and Sinai range from 580 to 620?Ma. A similar, albeit younger 40Ar/39Ar age of 557?±?15?Ma was obtained from a biotite paragneiss south of Jabal Kirsh; this age difference probably represent the time interval it took the Kirsh rocks to cool below the biotite closure temperature and would place a lower age limit for the dome. The Kirsh dome occupies an extensional zone between left-stepping faults; movement within this zone might have caused enough decompression to trigger fluid-absent melting in the middle crust especially as the rocks cross the biotite dehydration solidus. Diapiric ascent aided by strike-slip dilatancy pumping led to the emplacement of the Kirsh rocks in their present position within the Murdama Group metasediments.  相似文献

A workflow is described to estimate specific storage (S s) and hydraulic conductivity (K) from a profile of vibrating wire piezometers embedded into a regional aquitard in Australia. The loading efficiency, compressibility and S s were estimated from pore pressure response to atmospheric pressure changes, and K was estimated from the earliest part of the measurement record following grouting. Results indicate that S s and K were, respectively, 8.8?×?10?6 to 1.2?×?10?5 m?1 and 2?×?10?12 m s?1 for a claystone/siltstone, and 4.3?×?10?6 to 9.6?×?10?6 m?1 and 1?×?10?12 to 5?×?10?12 m s?1 for a thick mudstone. K estimates from the pore pressure response are within one order of magnitude when compared to direct measurement in a laboratory and inverse modelled flux rates determined from natural tracer profiles. Further analysis of the evolution and longevity of the properties of borehole grout (e.g. thermal and chemical effects) may help refine the estimation of formation hydraulic properties using this workflow. However, the convergence of K values illustrates the benefit of multiple lines of evidence to support aquitard characterization. An additional benefit of in situ pore pressure measurement is the generation of long-term data to constrain groundwater flow models, which provides a link between laboratory scale data and the formation scale.  相似文献

The Montagne Noire in the southernmost French Massif Central is made of an ENE‐elongated gneiss dome flanked by Palaeozoic sedimentary rocks. The tectonic evolution of the gneiss dome has generated controversy for more than half a century. As a result, a multitude of models have been proposed that invoke various tectonic regimes and exhumation mechanisms. Most of these models are based on data from the gneiss dome itself. Here, new constraints on the dome evolution are provided based on a combination of very low‐grade petrology, K–Ar geochronology, field mapping and structural analysis of the Palaeozoic western Mont Peyroux and Faugères units, which constitute part of the southern hangingwall of the dome. It is shown that southward‐directed Variscan nappe‐thrusting (D1) and a related medium‐P metamorphism (M1) are only preserved in the area furthest away from the gneiss dome. The regionally dominant pervasive tectono‐metamorphic event D2/M2 largely transposes D1 structures, comprises a higher metamorphic thermal gradient than M1 (transition low‐P and medium‐P metamorphic facies series) and affected the rocks between c. 309 and 300 Ma, post‐dating D1/M1 by more than 20 Ma. D2‐related fabrics are refolded by D3, which in its turn, is followed by dextral‐normal shearing along the basal shear zone of both units at c. 297 Ma. In the western Mont Peyroux and Faugères units, D2/M2 is largely synchronous with shearing along the southern dome margin between c. 311 and 303 Ma, facilitating the emplacement of the gneiss dome into the upper crust. D2/M2 also overlaps in time with granitic magmatism and migmatization in the Zone Axiale between c. 314 and 306 Ma, and a related low‐P/high‐T metamorphism at c. 308 Ma. The shearing that accompanied the exhumation of the dome therefore was synchronous with a peak in temperature expressed by migmatization and intrusion of melts within the dome, and also with the peak of metamorphism in the hangingwall. Both, the intensity of D2 fabrics and the M2 metamorphic grade within the hangingwall, decrease away from the gneiss dome, with grades ranging from the anchizone–epizone boundary to the diagenetic zone. The related zonation of the pre‐D3 metamorphic field gradients paralleled the dome. These observations indicate that D2/M2 is controlled by the exhumation of the Zone Axiale, and suggest a coherent kinematic between the different crustal levels at some time during D2/M2. Based on integration of these findings with regional geological constraints, a two‐stage exhumation of the gneiss dome is proposed: during a first stage between c. 316 and 300 Ma dome emplacement into the upper crust was controlled by dextral shear zones arranged in a pull‐apart‐like geometry. The second stage from 300 Ma onwards was characterized by northeast to northward extension, with exhumation accommodated by north‐dipping detachments and hangingwall basin formation along the northeastern dome margin.  相似文献

Exhumation of the Tutak mantled gneiss dome without significant cooling has taken place in a doubly plunging anticline within the Sanandaj-Sirjan HP-LT metamorphic belt in the Zagros Thrust System of Iran. Reconstruction of structural evolution of the Tutak gneiss dome at the contact between Arabian and Iranian plates by 40Ar/39Ar geochronology exhibits history of the closure of Neo-Tethyan Ocean. There are two granites of different ages in the core of dome; the oldest corresponds to the central Iranian continental crust and was deformed at about 180 Ma. The younger granite was emplaced in the NE–SW transpression system. The timing of strain-related fabrics and exhumation history of the region illustrates the closure of Neo-Tethys and beginning of continent-continent collision at about 77 Ma, as constrained by a well defined plateau 40Ar/39Ar age obtained on biotite. Then, the biotite age corresponds to the second stage of emplacement of the Bendenow granite-gneiss which illustrating repeated orogenic events. Continuing deformation without interruption that by now has been created at about 77 Ma, was largely restricted to the transpression and high proportion of simple shear components relative to the pure shear components along the NE–SW.  相似文献

The electrical conductivity and polarization properties of calcite single crystals with three orientations, namely, a (00.1) plane perpendicular to the crystallographic c axis (10.0) plane parallel to the crystallographic c axis, and a (10.4) cleavage plane, were studied by both complex impedance and thermally stimulated depolarization current (TSDC) measurements. Conductivities for (00.1)-, (10.0)-, and (10.4)-oriented single calcite crystals at 400–600?°C were 1.16?×?10?7?–?1.05?×?10?5, 7.40?×?10?8?–?4.27?×?10?6, and 4.27?×?10?7?–?2.86?×?10?5 Ω?1 m?1, respectively, and the activation energies for conduction were 112, 103, and 101?kJ?mol?1, respectively. The TSDC spectra verified the electrical polarizability of calcite crystals. The activation energy for depolarization, estimated from TSDC spectra, of the (00.1)-, (10.0)-, and (10.4)-oriented calcite substrates were 112, 119, and 114?kJ?mol?1, respectively. Considering the correlation between the processes of conduction and electric polarization, we proposed the mechanisms of conduction and polarization in calcite on the assumption of oxide ion transport.  相似文献

In order to examine the fluxes of methane (CH4) from the Indian estuaries, measurements were carried out by collecting samples from 26 estuaries along the Indian coast during high discharge (wet) and low water discharge (dry) periods. The CH4 concentrations in the estuaries located along the west coast of India were significantly higher (113?±?40 nM) compared to the east coast of India (27?±?6 nM) during wet and dry periods (88?±?15 and 63?±?12 nM, respectively). Supersaturation of CH4 was observed in the Indian estuaries during both periods ((0.18 to 22.3?×?103 %). The concentrations of CH4 showed inverse relation with salinity indicating that freshwater is a significant source. Spatial variations in CH4 saturation were associated with the organic matter load suggesting that its decomposition may be another source in the Indian estuaries. Fluxes of CH4 ranged from 0.01 to 298 μmol m?2 day?1 (mean 13.4?±?5 μmol m?2 day?1) which is ~30 times lower compared to European estuaries (414 μmol m?2 day?1). The annual emission from Indian estuaries, including Pulicat and Adyar, amounted to 0.39?×?1010 g CH4?year?1 with the surface area of 0.027?×?106 km2 which is significantly lower than that in European estuaries (2.7?±?6.8?×?1010 g CH4?year?1 with the surface area of 0.03?×?106 km2). This study suggests that Indian estuaries are a weak source for atmospheric CH4 than European estuaries and such low fluxes were attributed to low residence time of water and low decomposition of organic matter within the estuary. The CH4 fluxes from the Indian estuaries are higher than those from Indian mangroves (0.01?×?1010 g CH4?year?1) but lower than those from Indian inland waters (210?×?1010 g CH4?year?1).  相似文献

The River Gash Basin is filled by the Quaternary alluvial deposits, unconformably overlying the basement rocks. The alluvial deposits are composed mainly of unconsolidated layers of gravel, sand, silt, and clays. The aquifer is unconfined and is laterally bounded by the impermeable Neogene clays. The methods used in this study include the carry out of pumping tests and the analysis of well inventory data in addition to the river discharge rates and other meteorological data. The average annual discharge of the River Gash is estimated to be 1,056?×?106 m3 at El Gera gage station (upstream) and 587?×?106 m3 at Salam-Alikum gage station (downstream). The annual loss mounts up to 40% of the total discharge. The water loss is attributed to infiltration and evapotranspiration. The present study proofs that the hydraulic conductivity ranges from 36 to 105 m/day, whereas the transmissivity ranges from 328 to 1,677 m2/day. The monitoring of groundwater level measurements indicates that the water table rises during the rainy season by 9 m in the upstream and 6 m in the midstream areas. The storage capacity of the upper and middle parts of the River Gash Basin is calculated as 502?×?106 m3. The groundwater input reach 386.11?×?106 m3/year, while the groundwater output is calculated as 365.98?×?106 m3/year. The estimated difference between the input and output water quantities in the upper and middle parts of the River Gash Basin demonstrates a positive groundwater budget by about 20?×?106 m3/year  相似文献

The Hongtoushan copper–zinc deposit is the only large Archean volcanogenic massive sulfide (VMS) deposit in China. This paper presents new information on the timing of metallogenesis and metamorphism of the deposit, including new cathodoluminescence (CL) images, and Th U?1 and LA–ICP–MS U–Pb dating on zircons of the biotite–plagioclase gneiss and plagioclase–amphibole gneiss that host the deposit. The CL images and Th U?1 ratios indicate that the zircons within the gneiss are of metamorphic origin. LA–ICP–MS dating of the plagioclase–amphibole gneiss yielded the upper intercept ages of 2549 Ma, and the biotite–plagioclase gneiss yielded the upper intercept ages of 2552 Ma and 2550 Ma correspondingly, indicating that the mineralization of the deposit occurred at around 2550 Ma. The rims of zircons within these host rocks yielded younger U–Pb ages at 2529, 2520 and 2515 Ma, identical to the age of felsic intrusive rocks in the study area. This suggests that the Hongtoushan VMS deposit underwent initial metamorphism and deformation at around 2520 Ma by the intrusion of granite magmas.  相似文献

Three meta-igneous bodies from the Yaounde Group have been analyzed for their petrography, geochemistry, and 207Pb/206Pb zircon ages. According to their geochemical patterns, they represent meta-diorites. The meta-plutonites yielded identical zircon ages with a mean of 624?±?2?Ma interpreted as their intrusion age. This age is in agreement with previously published zircon ages of meta-diorites from the Yaounde Group. The meta-diorites derived mainly from crustal rocks with minor contribution from mantle material. The 87Rb/86Sr isochron ages of one meta-diorite sample and three meta-sedimentary host rocks are significantly younger than the obtained intrusion age. Therefore, they are not related to igneous processes. 87Rb/86Sr isochron ages differ from sample to sample (599?±?3, 572?±?4, 554?±?5, 540?±?5?Ma) yielding the oldest Neoproterozoic age (~600?Ma) for a paragneiss sample at a more northern location. The youngest Rb/Sr isochron age (~540?Ma) was obtained for a mica schist sample at a more southern location closer to the border of the Congo Craton. The 87Rb/86Sr whole rock-biotite ages are interpreted as cooling ages related to transpressional processes during exhumation. Therefore, several discrete metamorphic events related to the exhumation of the Yaounde Group were dated. It could be shown by Rb/Sr dating for the first time that these late tectonic processes occurred earlier at more distant northern locations of the Yaounde Group and lasted at least until early Cambrian (~540?Ma) more closely to the border of the Congo Craton.  相似文献

The Mount Athos Peninsula is situated in the south-easternmost part of the Chalkidiki Peninsula in northern Greece. It belongs to the Serbo-Macedonian Massif (SMM), a large basement massif within the Internal Hellenides. The south-eastern part of the Mount Athos peninsula is built by fine-grained banded biotite gneisses and migmatites forming a domal structure. The southern tip of the peninsula, which also comprises Mount Athos itself, is built by limestone, marble and low-grade metamorphic rocks of the Chortiatis Unit. The northern part and the majority of the western shore of the Mount Athos peninsula are composed of highly deformed rocks belonging to a tectonic mélange termed the Athos-Volvi-Suture Zone (AVZ), which separates two major basement units: the Vertiskos Terrane in the west and the Kerdillion Unit in the east. The rock-types in this mélange range from metasediments, marbles and gneisses to amphibolites, eclogites and peridotites. The gneisses are tectonic slivers of the adjacent basement complexes. The mélange zone and the gneisses were intruded by granites (Ierissos, Ouranoupolis and Gregoriou). The Ouranoupolis intrusion obscures the contact between the mélange and the gneisses. The granites are only slightly deformed and therefore postdate the accretionary event that assembled the units and created the mélange. Pb–Pb- and U–Pb-SHRIMP-dating of igneous zircons of the gneisses and granites of the eastern Athos peninsula in conjunction with geochemical and isotopic analyses are used to put Athos into the context of a regional tectonic model. The ages form three clusters: The basement age is indicated by two samples that yielded Permo-Carboniferous U–Pb-ages of 292.6?±?2.9?Ma and 299.4?±?3.5?Ma. The main magmatic event of the granitoids now forming the gneiss dome is dated by Pb–Pb-ages between 140.0?±?2.6?Ma and 155.7?±?5.1?Ma with a mean of 144.7?±?2.4?Ma. A within-error identical age of 146.6?±?2.3?Ma was obtained by the U–Pb-SHRIMP method. This Late Jurassic age is also known from the Kerdillion Unit and the Rhodope Terrane. The rather undeformed granites are interpreted as piercing plutons. The small granite stocks sampled have Late Cretaceous to Early Tertiary ages of 66.8?±?0.8?Ma and 68.0?±?1.0?Ma (U–Pb-SHRIMP)/62.8?±?3.9?Ma (Pb–Pb). The main accretionary event was according to these data in the Late Jurassic since all younger rocks show little or no deformation. The age distribution together with the geochemical and isotopic signature and the lithology indicates that the eastern part of the Mount Athos peninsula is part of a large-scale gneiss dome also building the Kerdillion Unit of the eastern SMM and the Rhodope Massif. This finding extends the area of this dome significantly to the south and indicates that the tectonic boundary between the SMM and the Rhodope Massif lies within the AVZ.  相似文献

The heat capacity of natural chamosite (XFe=0.889) and clinochlore (XFe=0.116) were measured by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The samples were characterised by X-ray diffraction, microprobe analysis and Mössbauer spectroscopy. DSC measurements between 143 and 623?K were made following the procedure of Bosenick et?al. (1996). The fitted data for natural chamosite (CA) in J?mol?1?K?1 give: C p,CA = 1224.3–10.685?×?103?×?T ??0.5???6.4389?× 106?×T ??2?+?8.0279?×?108?×?T ??3 and for the natural clinochlore (CE): C p,CE = 1200.5–10.908?×?103?×T ??0.5?? 5.6941?×?106?×?T ??2?+?7.1166?×?108?×?T ??3. The corrected C p-polynomial for pure end-member chamosite (Fe5Al)[Si3AlO10](OH)8 is C p,CAcor = 1248.3–11.116?× 103?×?T ??0.5???5.1623?×?106?×?T ??2?+?7.1867?×?108×T ??3 and the corrected C p-polynomial for pure end-member clinochlore (Mg5Al)[Si3AlO10](OH)8 is C p,CEcor = 1191.3–10.665?×?103?×?T ??0.5???6.5136?×?106?×?T ??2?+ 7.7206?×?108?×?T ??3. The corrected C p-polynomial for clinochlore is in excellent agreement with that in the internally consistent data sets of Berman (1988) and Holland and Powell (1998). The derived C p-polynomial for chamosite (C p,CAcor) leads to a 4.4% higher heat capacity, at 300?K, compared to that estimated by Holland and Powell (1998) based on a summation method. The corrected C p-polynomial (C p,CAcor) is, however, in excellent agreement with the computed C p-polynomial given by Saccocia and Seyfried (1993), thus supporting the reliability of Berman and Brown's (1985) estimation method of heat capacities.  相似文献
