Variations in basaltic geochemistry along a propagating rift of the late Ordovician marginal basin of the West Norwegian Caledonides 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The late Ordovician Solund-Stavfjord ophiolite complex in the western Norwegian Caledonides records a multi stage seafloor spreading history of an Iapetus marginal basin and contains three structural domains with distinctive tectonomagmatic evolutionary paths. The NNE-trending Domain 1 consisting of high-level gabbro, sheeted dykes and extrusive rocks is interpreted to represent fossil oceanic crust developed along a spreading centre that propagated northwards into pre-existing oceanic crust in the marginal basin. Dyke swarms at the head of this inferred propagating rift range from primitive, high-MgO basalts to highly fractionated quartz-diorites. Southwards along-strike of Domain 1, the abundance of primitive basalts decreases and the proportion of FeTi-basalts increases to become predominant furthest behind the tip of the propagating rift. This geochemical evolution is comparable to that of the basalts of modern propagating rifts at the East Pacific Rise and the Galapagos spreading ridge. We suggest that the chemical variations of the metabasalts reflect changes in magma supply rates and in the increasing size of magma chamber(s) along-strike of the spreading centres. 相似文献

日喀则蛇绿岩研究中的几个问题 总被引:6,自引:4,他引:2
日喀则蛇绿岩是中国最著名的蛇绿岩,但是,许多问题存在争论,许多现象没有搞清楚。文中讨论了日喀则蛇绿岩中一些重要的现象以及对目前发现的许多矛盾如何考虑的问题。例如,(1)日喀则蛇绿岩中是否存在席状岩墙群?是否存在席状岩床群?本文认为,席状岩墙群应当是存在的,因为有不对称冷凝边出现。而席状岩床群可能是有问题的,岩床作为侵入体可以出现在许多地方,但是,蛇绿岩中不可能出现席状岩床群,尤其还把它作为蛇绿岩岩石组合的一个单元。笔者认为,所谓的席状岩床群可能是席状岩流群,它不是一个独立的单元,是玄武岩单元下部的成员。(2)日喀则蛇绿岩是否统统是蛇绿岩是一个需要考虑的问题,雅鲁藏布江东西两段出现的岩石组合及其产出背景与日喀则地区的蛇绿岩明显不同,其中有些可能未必是蛇绿岩。(3)自1972年彭罗斯会议以来,蛇绿岩研究发展到现在,可能已经进入了一个关键时期。文中回顾了蛇绿岩的定义及其构造意义,指出1972年彭罗斯会议关于蛇绿岩的定义仍然是适用的。蛇绿岩可以概括为洋壳+地幔,这个洋壳来自板块扩张脊,是年轻的;这个地幔是大洋岩石圈地幔,也可能保留有古老岩石圈地幔的印记。蛇绿岩产于板块扩张脊,这是蛇绿岩构造含义的唯一解,蛇绿岩不存在多解性。(4)日喀则蛇绿岩的许多基本观点主要是法国学者提出来的,如关于岩床群的见解,慢速扩张的见解等。但是,上述见解是否都是对的是需要思考的。日喀则蛇绿岩具有得天独厚的条件,我们应当很好利用这个条件,努力把我们的研究做好,为全球蛇绿岩研究贡献我们的一份力量。 相似文献

The SW Antalya Complex is an assemblage of Mesozoic carbonate platform, margin and ophiolitic rocks which record the formation and tectonic emplacement of a small Mesozoic ocean basin. The late Cretaceous ophiolitic rocks are located at two localities, namely the relatively intact Tekirova ophiolite to the east of Kemer zone and the dismembered Gödene ophiolite to the west of Kemer zone. The Tekirova (Antalya) ophiolite comprises harzburgitic tectonites, ultramafic to mafic cumulates, isotropic gabbros and sheeted dikes. Numerous isolated dikes, ranging in thickness from 5 cm to 10 m, intruded the crustal rocks at different structural levels. The isotropic gabbros are represented by gabbro, diorite and quartz diorite rocks with granular to ophitic–subophitic textures. The isolated dikes are characterized by dolerite, diabase and microdiorite with ophitic, intersertal and microgranular textures. These rocks exhibit tholeiitic to alkaline compositions. New geochemical data presented in this paper from the isolated dikes and isotropic gabbros suggest that there are three main types of parental basic magmas that form the oceanic crustal rocks of the Tekirova (Antalya) ophiolite. These are (1) IAT series which can be referred to the Group I isolated dikes and isotropic gabbros; (2) low-Ti boninitic series characterized by the Group II isolated dike and isotropic gabbros; and (3) OIB-type including the Group III isotropic gabbros. The geochemical evidence suggests that the crustal rocks of the Tekirova (Antalya) ophiolite were generated from a progressive source depletion from island arc tholeiites (IAT) to boninites. Therefore, a fore-arc tectonic setting seems likely for the generation of the crustal rocks from the Tekirova (Antalya) ophiolite in the southern branch of Neotethys during the Late Cretaceous. The OIB-type alkaline isotropic gabbros are thought to have resulted from either (1) a late-stage magmatic activity fed by melts that originated within an asthenospheric window due to slab break-off or (2) subduction of a ridge system which generated OIB source across the asthenospheric window that has been no influence of fluids from the subducted slab into the overlying mantle wedge, shortly before the emplacement of the Tekirova (Antalya) ophiolite onto the Tauride platform. 相似文献

The Neyriz ophiolite along the northeast flank of the Zagros fold-thrust belt in southern Iran is an excellent example of a Late Cretaceous supra-subduction zone (SSZ)-related ophiolite on the north side of the Neotethys. The ophiolite comprises a mantle sequence including lherzolite, harzburgite, diabasic dikes, and cumulate to mylonitic gabbro lenses, and a crustal sequence comprising a sheeted dike complex and pillow lavas associated with pelagic limestone and radiolarite. Mantle harzburgites contain less CaO and Al2O3, are depleted in rare earth elements, and contain spinels that are more Cr-rich than lherzolites. Mineral compositions of peridotites are similar to those of both abyssal and SSZ- peridotites. Neyriz gabbroic rocks show boninitic (SSZ-related) affinities, while crustal rocks are similar to early arc tholeiites. Mineral compositions of gabbroic rocks resemble those of SSZ-related cumulates such as high forsterite olivine, anorthite-rich plagioclase, and high-Mg# clinopyroxene. Initial εNd(t) values range from +7.9 to +9.3 for the Neyriz magmatic rocks. Samples with radiogenic Nd overlap with least radiogenic mid-ocean ridge basalts and with Semail and other Late Cretaceous Tethyan ophiolitic rocks. Initial 87Sr/86Sr ranges from 0.7033 to 0.7044, suggesting modification due to seafloor alteration. Most Neyriz magmatic rocks are characterized by less radiogenic 207Pb/204Pb (near the northern hemisphere reference line), suggesting less involvement of sediments in their mantle source. Our results for Neyriz ophiolite and the similarity to other Iranian Zagros ophiolites support a subduction initiation setting for its generation. 相似文献

Hydrous partial melting in the sheeted dike complex at fast spreading ridges: experimental and natural observations 总被引:5,自引:1,他引:4

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

The Khan-Taishir ophiolitic complex is situated within Early Caledonian structures of Western Mongolia. It consists (from below upward) of strongly differentiated ultramafics (dunites and harzburgites), pyroxenites and gabbro, sheeted dikes, pillow lavas and sediments, including in their uppermost part archaeocyatic limestones of Lower Cambrian age. Geological, petrochemical and geochemical data indicate that the ultramafics are turn off from the overlying ophiolitic sequence. Igneous rocks of the ophiolitic complex, except the ultramafics, were formed by two-stage differentiation of mantle magma of quartz-tholeiitic composition exhausted in potassium and titanium. Pyroxenites and gabbro with an anorthositic trend of differentiation were generated during the first stage, and sheeted dikes and pillow lavas with a quartz trend of differentiation were formed during the second one. Ophiolites of the Khan-Taishir complex petrochemically and geochemically differ strongly from mafic and ultramafic rocks of midoceanic ridges. Together with ophiolites of the Troodos complex (Cyprus) and Macquarie Island (eastern Indian Ocean) they constitute the special type of ophiolite peculiar rather to slip boundaries of lithosphere plates. The other type of ophiolite, including complexes like the Dzolen complex of south Mongolia, contains poorly differentiated ultramafics and does not contain sheeted dikes; while the igneous rocks are very similar to mafic and ultramafic rocks dredged from midoceanic and formed probably in midoceanic ridge environments as well. 相似文献

The Bayan Gol ophiolite fragment is a portion of the North Tianshan Early Carboniferous ophiolite belt. This ophiolite belt represents a geological record of an Early Carboniferous “Red Sea type” ocean basin that was developed on the northern margin of the Tianshan Carboniferous-Permian rift system in northwestern China. The late Early Carboniferous Bayan Gol ophiolite suite was emplaced in an Early Carboniferous rift volcanosedimentary succession of shallow-marine to continental facies (Volcanics Unit). Ophiolitic rocks in the Bayan Gol area comprise ultramafic rocks, gabbros with associated plagiogranite veins, diorite, diabase, pillow basalts and massive lavas. The Early Carboniferous tiffing and the opening process of the North Tianshan ocean basin produced mafic magmas in composition of tholeiite and minor amounts of evolved magmas. Compositions of trace elements and Nd, Sr and Pb isotopes reveal the presence of two distinct mantle sources: (1) the Early Carboniferous rift mafic lavas from the Volcanics Unit were generated by a relatively low degree of partial melting of an asthenospheric OIB-type intraplate source; (2)younger (late Early Carboniferous, -324.8 Ma ago) mafic lavas from the Ophiolite Unit were formed in a relatively depleted MORB-like mantle source, located in the uppermost asthenosphere and then gradually mixed with melts from the asthenospheric OIB-like mantle. A slight interaction between asthenosphere-derived magmas and lithospheric mantle took place during ascent to the surface. Subsequently, the most depleted mafic lavas of the ophiolite assemblage were contaminated by upper-crustal components (seawater or carbonate crust). 相似文献

藏北永珠席状岩墙群的发现--海底扩张的证据 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:2
新发现的永珠席状岩墙群位于西藏北部班公错一怒江缝合带与雅鲁藏布江缝合带之间。永珠席状岩墙群规模之大、结构之完整在国内尚属罕见。岩石由蚀变辉绿岩、辉长岩扣辉绿玢岩岩墙组成,向上与枕状玄武岩呈渐变过渡扣侵入接触关系,发育有单侧或双侧冷凝边,具高CaO、Al2O3、MgO、FeO、Fe2O3,低TiO2、P2O5的特点,为亚碱性系列岩石。微量元素主要显示MORB的特征,部分判别图显示MORB扣岛弧拉斑玄武岩(IAT)的过渡特征,推测可能产于弧后盆地环境。依据上覆放射虫硅质岩的时代扣枕状玄武岩、岩墙群同位素年龄,确定永珠席状岩墙群形成的时间可能为中休罗世-早白垩世。这一发现为中特提斯海时期古海底扩张提供了新的证据。 相似文献
