超高压变质岩的折返过程是陆陆碰撞边界演化的关键问题。南倾的花凉亭-弥陀剪切带位于南大别低温-超高压变质 带和中大别中温-超高压变质带之间,矿物拉伸线理倾伏向为SE,逆冲和走滑分量大致相等。电子背散射衍射分析表明: 花凉亭-弥陀剪切带大多数样品的石英组构记录了上盘向NW的剪切变形,反映了中大别超高压变质岩向SE的快速折返, 而部分样品的石英具有上盘向SE的剪切指向,与早白垩世花岗岩穹隆发育导致的区域伸展有关。对前人的岩石学和年代学 成果进行总结,发现大别山进变质和超高压变质峰期/退变质的锆石U-Pb年龄从南往北逐渐变新,南大别和中大别在215~ 225 Ma同时经历了高压榴辉岩相退变质作用,在191~195 Ma经历了绿片岩相变质作用。超高压变质岩的白云母和黑云母的 40Ar/39Ar年龄靠近郯庐断裂时偏年轻,可能受到郯庐断裂活动的影响。南大别和中大别变质峰期温压的等值线与花凉亭-弥 陀剪切带的走向斜交,反映了超高压变质岩的斜向折返。因此,南大别低温-超高压变质带在~236 Ma最先开始折返,之后 中大别和北大别依次发生快速折返,具有不同折返速率和折返角度的构造岩片通过韧性剪切带调节相对运动。  相似文献

造山带中发现超高压矿物柯石英和金刚石,被认为与洋壳或陆壳岩片的深俯冲(>100km)有关。但探讨这些岩片是如何俯冲和折返的?却是一个极具挑战的难题。目前,中国境内含榴辉岩的高压超高压(HP/UHP)变质带已经发现11条,此外,世界各地发现的高压超高压变质带还有至少20条。高压超高压变质带,特别是中国众多的HP-UHP变质带,在什么特定的大地构造条件中形成?又是在怎样的构造背景下折返而剥露地表?中国大陆上为什么出现众多规模可观的HP-UHP变质带?为什么出现洋壳(深)俯冲与陆壳(深)俯冲不同类型的HP-UHP带?这是本文试探讨的问题。根据中国境内的11条高压/超高压变质带形成时代和区域构造背景,将其分为4类:Ⅰ.始特提斯(早古生代)高压/超高压变质带,包括(1)柴北缘-南阿尔金超高压变质带,(2)北祁连-北阿尔金高压变质带,(3)东秦岭超高压变质带;Ⅱ.古特提斯高压/超高压变质带,包括(4)大别高压/超高压变质带,(5)苏鲁高压/超高压变质带,(6)西藏羌塘高压变质带;(7)西藏松多(超)高压变质带;Ⅲ.新特提斯高压/超高压变质带,包括(8)雅鲁藏布江东构造结南迦巴瓦(超)高压变质带;Ⅳ.古亚洲域南缘高压/超高压变质带,包括(9)新疆西南天山超高压变质带,(10)甘肃北山高压变质带,和(11)冀北高压变质带。中国高压/超高压变质带形成的大地构造背景有洋壳(深)俯冲和陆壳(深)俯冲两大成因类型,认为前者大都与始-古特提斯洋盆中微陆块之间的汇聚碰撞有关;后者为大陆块之间剪式碰撞和撕裂式岩石圈舌形板片深俯冲的产物。由于中国(邻区)大陆是三大陆块与许多小陆块聚集构成的巨大拼合体,小陆块在特提斯洋盆(特别是始、古特提斯洋盆)中的独特位置,使陆块之间的刚性洋盆岩石圈得以(深)俯冲插入小陆块之下。而大陆块之间特殊部位的碰撞为陆壳(深)俯冲创造条件。研究表明,高压/超高压变质岩石和蛇绿岩、混杂堆积、俯冲增生楔一起构成俯冲/折返杂岩带;认为代表印支造山带山根物质的大别-苏鲁高压/超高压俯冲/折返杂岩带,呈面形推覆岩片的构造样式叠置在扬子陆块之上,提出汇聚陆块边缘深部地幔物质折返的“斜向挤出”和“沿岩石圈板片的多层隧道的多重/分片挤出”的两种模式;认为走滑断裂在高压/超高压变质岩石的快速折返中起重要作用,即阿尔金走滑断裂、郯庐走滑断裂和喀喇昆仑走滑断裂,分别制约了阿尔金和祁连山中的南北两条早古生代高压/超高压变质带、大别-苏鲁印支期超高压变质带和喜马拉雅西构造结的喜山期超高压变质带的快速折返。  相似文献

本文在讨论中国东部现有构造演化模式基础上,着重从华北与华南地块之间板块尺度的动力学过程剖析秦岭-大别中生代造山带构造演化,以及大别-苏鲁超高压变质地体的形成和折返过程。晚二叠世-中三叠世华南地块向华北地块持续挤压,陆壳大规模俯冲导致超高压变质作用的产生,而华北地块在晚三叠世至早侏罗世发生快速逆时针旋转,使得这一地区上地幔深度的超高压变质地体快速折返至下地壳。由于超高压变质地体侵位后,地壳结构、构造的差异,在南北地块的进一步挤压下,造成中国东部晚侏罗世-早白垩世郯庐断裂带的巨大左行剪切。  相似文献

大别-郯庐-苏鲁造山带复合旋转拼贴作用   总被引:29,自引:0,他引:29  
郯庐断裂带的成生演化与含超高压变质带(UHP)的大别及苏鲁造山带存在较密切的时空关系。郯庐断裂带所在的构造位置应是晚二叠世华北与扬子地块碰撞时的根带。UHP岩石的折返过程可能发生于华北、扬子地块的大角度旋转、拼合过程中。在华北与扬子地块的造山后期或者造山期后的构造变形中所记录的构造形迹经晚中生代以来的中国东部构造变形叠加而逐渐呈现复杂的构造组合,所谓“郯庐断裂带”的走滑平移即其中的一种运动方式。华北与扬子地块碰撞造山作用与陆内变形最终造就了大别—郯庐—苏鲁复合造山带。  相似文献

在大别造山带东端和苏鲁造山带西端,郯庐断裂带存在着同造山期和早白垩世两期左旋走滑韧性剪切带,在张八岭隆起南段迄今为止只发现了早白垩世的走滑剪切带。这些剪切带由若干条小型韧性剪切带组成,带内糜棱岩都具有陡倾的糜棱面理和平缓的矿物拉伸线理。野外构造、显微构造及石英C轴组构皆指示了左旋走滑剪切指向。新生矿物组合和矿物变形行为分析显示大别山东端郯庐早、晚两期剪切带主要形成于中绿片岩相的变质温度环境,张八岭隆起南段剪切带主要形成于高绿片岩相的变质温度环境,苏鲁造山带西端郯庐早、晚两期剪切带则形成于高角闪岩相的变质温度环境。糜棱岩内基质中新生白云母的电子探针分析指示大别山东端和张八岭隆起南段出露的郯庐韧性剪切带形成于低压环境下,而苏鲁造山带西端的郯庐韧性剪切带形成于高压榴辉岩相环境。这些详细的构造研究显示:在华北与华南板块的碰撞造山期郯庐断裂带以左旋走滑构造型式存在,而在早白垩世太平洋构造域中它又再次发生了强烈的左行平移。  相似文献

苏鲁高压—超高压变质带的折返构造及折返机制   总被引:85,自引:8,他引:77  
苏鲁高压—超高压变质带的折返构造是由韧性剪切叠覆构造岩片组成,具NWW-SEE向剪切矢量及SEE向NWW的剪切指向,与折返构造伴随的高压和超高压退变质反应过程与石英从高温—中温—低温的组构模式吻合。150~100Ma期间的伸展事件包含了北界韧性伸展转换性剪切带及莱阳盆地的形成、苏鲁高压—超高压变质带北部花岗岩侵位、折返面理弯曲形成背形构造及伴随的韧—脆性正滑构造。多学科的综合研究表明,240~220Ma扬子板块巨量物质往北深俯冲于北中国板块之下,220~200Ma高压—超高压变质岩石整体快速折返,折返板片中保存的自上而下变质岩石单元序列与剪切叠覆构造岩片的物质组成序列基本一致。提出苏鲁高压—超高压变质折返板片呈上拱的舌形体,变形分解表明苏鲁高压—超高压变质板片是在“挤出”机制下折返及受后期伸展事件的改造。  相似文献

郯庐断裂带热年代学信息及其与大别造山带折返的关系   总被引:23,自引:2,他引:21  
大别山东缘早期郯庐韧性剪切带内的 T28- 12和 T28- 13白云母的 (181.4± 0.5) Ma和 (181.6± 0.8) Ma的 40Ar/39Ar坪年龄指示了郯庐早期左旋剪切的冷却时间为 181 Ma,这些年代学数据指示了郯庐同造山期左旋走滑热事件的存在.起源于华北、华南板块陆-陆碰撞过程中的这期断裂平移活动,发生在高压-超高压带主体部分折返至中地壳后的早侏罗世,推测其活动形式表现为造山带折返过程中高压-超高压带向 SE的斜向折返中形成的转换断层.郯庐晚期韧性剪切带内糜棱岩中白云母、黑云母的 40Ar/39Ar年龄,指示了 139 Ma前(早白垩世)发生的又一次左旋走滑冷却事件.在这期断裂带左行平移的同时,大别造山带东段出现了大规模的岩浆侵入及穹状隆升.剪切带糜棱岩中斜长石 40Ar/39Ar年龄指示剪切带在晚白垩世存在一期快速冷却事件,此次快速冷却事件的时间为 97~ 92 Ma.磷灰石裂变径迹研究成果揭示了 45~ 58 Ma前郯庐断裂带的一次快速冷却事件.这两次快速冷却事件分别对应于断裂带晚白垩世、古近纪两次伸展活动,并控制发育了断裂带东侧的潜山断陷盆地.而钾长石和磷灰石所在地记录的冷却时间显示,造山带内部的抬升都相应早于东缘的郯庐断裂带,反映造山带晚白垩世-古近纪的隆升并不受该断裂带伸展控制,而应是岩石圈拆沉的结果.  相似文献

苏鲁高压-超高压变质地体南缘高压与超高压变质带接触关系的确定对该地区构造格局的建立具有重要的意义。研究表明苏鲁高压-超高压变质地体南缘高压变质带内的锦屏群底部含砾岩层不整合覆盖于超高压变质带南部的朐山花岗片麻岩之上,含砾岩层中的砾石虽然经历了后期的塑性变形改造,但其地质特征仍展示出地层下部层位沉积砾石特有的性质。此外,同位素年代学研究揭示出朐山花岗片麻岩与锦屏群变质岩的原岩分别形成于859Ma和814Ma。这些都说明锦屏群变质岩与下伏朐山花岗片麻岩原岩之间的接触关系为角度不整合。在后期的构造运动过程中它们一起经历了高压-超高压变质变形作用,折返过程中锦屏群变质岩向北西西方向逆冲,形成叠加于不整合接触面的韧性剪切带。  相似文献

自中三叠世扬子与华北板块发生碰撞—深俯冲作用以来,大别造山带南界上的襄樊—广济断裂带主要经历过两次变形事件: 1)早期变形事件发生在中三叠世末—晚三叠世初的造山带折返阶段,表现为造山带南边界上的韧性剪切带。这期北西—南东走向的剪切带向南西陡倾,发育北西—南东向的矿物拉伸线理,主要为右行走滑的运动性质,属于造山带斜向折返的侧边界走滑剪切带。造山带折返过程中将前陆褶断带北缘原先东西向褶皱改造为北西—南东走向。2)晚期变形事件发生在晚侏罗世,表现为脆性逆冲断层,使得前陆褶断带向北东逆冲在造山带南缘之上,同时在前陆上形成了一系列的逆冲断层。该断裂带的晚期逆冲活动与郯庐断裂带左行平移同时发生,代表了滨太平洋构造活动的开始。  相似文献

The Dabieshan is divided into three tectonic domains. The Southern Dabieshan is a stack of allochtons, from top to bottom: (i) unmetamorphosed Cambrian–Early Triassic series unconformably covered by Jurassic sandstone; (ii) weakly metamorphosed Proterozoic slate; (iii) HP rocks mostly retrogressed into greenschist facies; (iv) UHP allochton; (v) UHP-free gneisses. These units exhibit a NW–SE lineation and top-to-the-NW shearing reworked by S-verging folds. The Central Dabieshan is a migmatitic dome superimposed on UHP metamorphism and bounded by a detachement fault responsible for the exhumation of the UHP unit during its retrogression into amphibolite facies. In the Northern Dabieshan, early foliation and N–S trending compressional lineation are deformed by N-verging folds coeval to the syn-exhumation ductile structures of the Central Dabieshan. A geodynamic model involving coeval thrusting and normal faulting is discussed.  相似文献

The present constitution and architecture of the Dabieshan orogenic belt is the combined result of Triassic subduction collision, extensional tectonics postdating the HP and UHP metamorphism, and thermo-tectonic evolution in Mesozoic-Cenozoic time. In addition to Yanshanian and post-Yan-shanian magmatic intrusion, volcanic eruption, and basin deposition, lithotectonic constituents of the Dabie orogenic belt consist mainly of a core complex (CC) unit, an UHP unit, an HP unit, an epidote-blueschist (EBS) unit, and a sedimentary cover (SC) unit. Minor mafic-ultramafic plutons were intruded into or preserved within the CC, UHP, HP, or EBS units. Slices of UHP, HP, and EBS units are progressively sandwiched between the underlying core complex and the overlying sedimentary cover. The distribution of lithotectonic units is controlled by an extensional tectonic framework, which postdates the collisional event. The tectonic pattern of the Dabieshan orogenic belt as a whole is characterized by a general doming, with the development of multi-layered detachment zones.

The study of partial melting associated with decompressive retrogression in the UHP unit during exhumation of the eclogites provides us with a better understanding of the relationship between eclogites and the surrounding country rock (socalled UHP gneisses), and the foliated garnet-bearing granites (the non-HP country rocks). It supports the “in situ” interpretation. Anatexis occurred under conditions of amphibolite-facies metamorphism at lower to middle crustal levels. This partial melting associated with decompression is one of the most important physico-chemical processes that postdate the collisional event in the Dabieshan. It signaled the evolution of the deformation regime from compression to extension, and reflected thinning of the continental crust and rapid uplift of UHP metamorphic rocks to middle to lower crustal levels by regional-scale extension.  相似文献

大悟杂岩位于大别山西段,主体为花岗质片麻岩。为了限定其形成与变形过程,本文综合运用锆石U-Pb法和白云母~(40) Ar/~(39) Ar法进行年代学研究。锆石U-Pb LA-ICP-MS法对这些花岗质片麻岩定年结果显示:锆石的Th/U值为0.79~4.29,属于典型的岩浆锆石特征;206Pb/238 U的加权平均年龄为(810±63)Ma(n=12,MSWD=0.021),代表这些花岗质片麻岩的形成时代。大悟杂岩核部花岗质片麻岩的白云母坪年龄为(210.5±1.4)Ma,相应的等时线年龄为(211.6±2.5)Ma。这些新的研究结果支持以下两点认识:大悟杂岩中的花岗质片麻岩形成于新元古代,而不是白垩纪;这些前寒武纪岩石的构造抬升过程发生在三叠纪晚期(211 Ma)。由于西大别晚三叠世构造与高压—超高压变质岩的出露过程有关,因此,大悟杂岩的变形与高压—超高压变质岩的抬升之间的关系就成为一个耐人寻味的科学问题。同时,由于大悟杂岩中的多数构造面理和线理形成于区域高压—超高压变质作用之后,据此推断西大别三叠纪晚期的变形发生在造山晚期-后造山背景下,伴随着地壳和岩石圈的大规模伸展与减薄。  相似文献

The western Dabie orogen (also known as the Hong'an block) forms the western part of the Dabie–Sulu HP–UHP belt, central China. Rocks of this orogen have been subjected to pervasive ductile deformation, and include numerous quartz schists and felsic mylonites cropping out in ductile shear zones. Quartz textures in these mylonites contain important clues for understanding the movement sense of late-collisional extrusion and exhumation of high-pressure–ultrahigh-pressure (HP–UHP) rocks from the lower crustal level to the upper crustal level during Middle Triassic and Early Jurassic. The orientation and distribution of quartz crystallographic axes were used to confirm the regional shear sense across the orogen. The asymmetry of c-axis patterns consistently indicates top-to-the-southeast thrusting across the orogen in early structural stages. Later stages of deformation show different senses of movement in northern and southern parts of the orogen, with top-to-the-northwest sinistral shearing recorded in rocks north of the Xinxian HP–UHP eclogite-facies belt, and top-to-the-southeast dextral shearing south of the same unit.Based on our study on quartz c-axis fabrics and marco- to micro-scale structures, simultaneous southeastward shearing within a large part of the orogen and normal faulting north of the Xinxian HP–UHP unit is explained by upward extrusion in early stages of deformation. The extrusion process has been attributed to syn- and late-collisional processes, accounting for some earlier deformation in the western Dabie orogen such as metamorphic sequences around the core of the Xinxian HP–UHP eclogite-facies unit. Much higher pressure of deformation is also indicated in the aligned glaucophane and omphacite from blueschist and eclogite in the field. An orogen-parallel eastward extrusion of the Xinxian HP–UHP eclogite-facies unit, however, occurred diachronously in later stages of deformation. Therefore, a tectonic model combining an early upward extrusion with a later eastward extrusion is presented. Two different stages and types of extrusion for exhumation of HP–UHP rocks are suitable to all of east central China. Geochronological data shows that the first, upward extrusion occurred during Middle Triassic, the second, eastward extrusion occurred during Late Triassic to Early Jurassic. These two extrusions are correlative with two stages of rapid exhumation of the Dabie HP–UHP rocks, respectively. These two-stage late-collisional (Middle Triassic to Early Jurassic) extrusion events bridge the gap between syn-collisional (Early to Middle Triassic) vertical extrusion and post-collisional (Cretaceous) eastward-directed lateral escape and provide vital clues to understanding the more detailed processes of exhumation of HP–UHP rocks.  相似文献

桐柏-大别山区高压变质相的构造配置   总被引:18,自引:3,他引:15  
作为华北和扬子陆块间的碰撞造山带桐柏大别山区以发育高压、超高压变质带为特征,从南到北变质相从低级到高级,代表俯冲带深度不同的变质产物,整体形成高压变质相系列。不过现今各变质相岩石的分布极受后期地壳规模的伸展构造控制,大别杂岩的穹隆作用更使高压变质相带的空间分布复杂化。超高压变质岩今日多呈大小不等的块体嵌布于相对低压的大别杂岩之内,造山带根部物质的热软化,使许多深层地幔物质得以像挤牙膏一样挤出于大别杂岩内。它们之中广泛发育着减压退变质的显微结构,与大别杂岩内一些麻粒岩相表壳岩所保存的减压退变质证迹一样,同是挤出作用和碰撞后隆升的构造证迹。高压相系的发育使南桐柏山和大别山迥然不同于桐商( 商丹) 断裂以北的北秦岭北淮阳变质带。新近发表的同位素年代学(40Ar 39 Ar) 资料:316 ~434 Ma ,已证明北秦岭是古生代变质带,它与桐柏- 大别印支期碰撞造山带差异甚大。这两个变质地温梯度差异甚大的变质地体的拼合,说明华北和扬子陆块碰撞的主缝合带是商丹- 桐商断裂带  相似文献

A new 140‐km‐long seismic reflection profile provides a high‐resolution crustal‐scale image of the southern Dabieshan high‐pressure (HP) metamorphic belt and the Yangtze foreland fold‐and‐thrust belt. The seismic image of the stacked section shows that the southern Dabieshan metamorphic terrane and Yangtze foreland belt are separated by a large north‐dipping fault. In the foreland the upper crust is dominated by a series of folds and thrusts formed during the collisional stage in the mid‐Triassic; it was reworked by crustal extension resulting in the formation of a late Jurassic and Cretaceous red‐bed basin. The southern Dabieshan profile shows stacked crustal slabs developed along the margin of the collisional orogenic belt. The Moho reflectors at 10–11 s (~30–33 km) are seismically prominent and segmented by a number of south‐verging thrusts that were probably developed by foreland‐directed thrusting of the deeply subducted continental crust during exhumation. The seismic reflection profile suggests that structures related to the Triassic–Jurassic subduction and exhumation of the Yangtze plate are preserved despite the severe crustal extension superimposed during the late Mesozoic and Cenozoic.  相似文献

In the Dabieshan, the available models for exhumation of ultrahigh-pressure (UHP) rocks are poorly constrained by structural data. A comprehensive structural and kinematic map and a general cross-section of the Dabieshan including its foreland fold belt and the Northern Dabieshan Domain (Foziling and Luzenguang groups) are presented here. South Dabieshan consists from bottom to top of stacked allochtons: (1) an amphibolite facies gneissic unit, devoid of UHP rocks, interpreted here as the relative autochton; (2) an UHP allochton; (3) a HP rock unit (Susong group) mostly retrogressed into greenschist facies micaschists; (4) a weakly metamorphosed Proterozoic slate and sandstone unit; and (5) an unmetamorphosed Cambrian to Early Triassic sedimentary sequence unconformably covered by Jurassic sandstone. All these units exhibit a polyphase ductile deformation characterized by (i) a NW–SE lineation with a top-to-the-NW shearing, and (ii) a southward refolding of early ductile fabrics.

The Central Dabieshan is a 100-km scale migmatitic dome. Newly discovered eclogite xenoliths in a Cretaceous granitoid dated at 102 Ma by the U–Pb method on titanite demonstrate that migmatization post-dates HP–UHP metamorphism. Ductile faults formed in the subsolidus state coeval to migmatization allow us to characterize the structural pattern of doming. Along the dome margins, migmatite is gneissified under post-solidus conditions and mylonitic–ultramylonitic fabrics commonly develop. The north and west boundaries of the Central Dabieshan metamorphics, i.e. the Xiaotian–Mozitan and Macheng faults, are ductile normal faults formed before Late Jurassic–Early Cretaceous. A Cretaceous reworking is recorded by synkinematic plutons.

North of the Xiaotian–Mozitan fault, the North Dabieshan Domain consists of metasediments and orthogneiss (Foziling and Luzenguang groups) metamorphosed under greenschist to amphibolite facies which never experienced UHP metamorphism. A rare N–S-trending lineation with top-to-the-south shearing is dated at 260 Ma by the 40Ar/39Ar method on muscovite. This early structure related to compressional tectonics is reworked by top-to-the-north extensional shear bands.

The main deformation of the Dabieshan consists of a NW–SE-stretching lineation which wraps around the migmatitic dome but exhibits a consistently top-to-the-NW sense of shear. The Central Dabieshan is interpreted as an extensional migmatitic dome bounded by an arched, top-to-the-NW, detachment fault. This structure may account for a part of the UHP rock exhumation. However, the abundance of amphibolite restites in the Central Dabieshan migmatites and the scarcity of eclogites (found only in a few places) argue for an early stage of exhumation and retrogression of UHP rocks before migmatization. This event is coeval to the N–S extensional structures described in the North Dabieshan Domain. Recent radiometric dates suggest that early exhumation and subsequent migmatization occurred in Triassic–Liassic times. The main foliation is deformed by north-verging recumbent folds coeval to the south-verging folds of the South Dabieshan Domain. An intense Cretaceous magmatism accounts for thermal resetting of most of the 40Ar/39Ar dates.

A lithosphere-scale exhumation model, involving continental subduction, synconvergence extension with inversion of southward thrusts into NW-ward normal faults and crustal melting is presented.  相似文献
