阿尔巴尼亚布尔其泽纯橄岩壳非常新鲜,主要由橄榄石、尖晶石和单斜辉石等矿物组成.其中橄榄石存在单斜辉石和铬尖晶石(磁铁矿)共生包裹体现象,包裹体矿物粒度在1~10 μm,有些甚至为纳米级200~500 nm.纯橄岩橄榄石的Fo值为94.7~96.0,铬尖晶石的Cr#为76.5~82.4,远高于蛇绿岩地幔橄榄岩中常见纯橄岩的铬值(Cr#>60).基于前人研究结果,提出这种现象是由于亏损方辉橄榄岩与含钛、铬、铁熔体发生交代作用,从而形成橄榄石的固溶体并存在Ti4+、Al3+、Ca2+、Fe3+,而部分Cr3+进入铬尖晶石结晶.后期由于岩体在抬升过程中降温,橄榄石中混溶的组分析出包裹体形成磁铁矿和铬尖晶石.并且依据铬尖晶石-橄榄石的矿物化学成分,识别出岩体内方辉橄榄岩相对较低的部分熔融程度约为30%~40%,纯橄岩部分熔融程度约为40%,表明不同岩相间其形成背景存在明显差异.因此,认为布尔奇泽蛇绿岩具有多阶段的过程,首先是在洋中脊环境下经历部分熔融作用形成了方辉橄榄岩,后受到俯冲环境(SSZ)的岩石-熔体反应生成更富Mg、Si和Cr等的熔体,致使地幔橄榄岩高度部分熔融,形成此类纯橄岩.   相似文献

地幔橄榄岩捕虏体中石榴石次变边的形成过程对理解地幔的构造演化和转变具有非常重要的意义。兴蒙造山带锡林浩特地区新生代玄武岩携带的石榴石橄榄岩捕虏体中的石榴石普遍发育冠冕状次变边结构。本文通过对石榴石及其次变边进行详细的岩相学和电子探针分析,探讨石榴石次变边的成因及其揭示的岩石圈地幔经历的深部过程。根据次变边矿物组成的不同,将其分为原始的次变边(R1和R2)和交代的次变边(MR1和MR2)。原始的次变边中,新鲜的石榴石由内向外依次被放射状且矿物颗粒较细的R1和粒状且矿物颗粒较粗的R2包围,且R1通常比R2宽。R1主要组成矿物为Opx+Sp+Melt1/Pl±Cpx, R2主要组成矿物为Opx+Sp+Cpx。与R2及橄榄岩捕虏体相比,R1的斜方辉石和单斜辉石具有较高的Al2O3含量和较低Mg#值及SiO2含量。与橄榄岩捕虏体相比,R1和R2中的尖晶石均具有较低的Cr#值和较高的Mg#值。R1的斜长石为钙长石,熔体成分与斜长石相比具有偏高的MgO和FeO含量。计算...  相似文献

西藏北部班公湖MOR型蛇绿岩主要由角砾状的地幔橄榄岩和玄武岩组成,其中地幔橄榄岩主要是低Cr#尖晶石相含单斜辉石(Cpx)方辉橄榄岩和少量不含Cpx的方辉橄榄岩,玄武岩具有MORB地球化学特点。岩石地球化学特征和二元混合模拟计算表明,含Cpx方辉橄榄岩是由较为亏损的方辉橄榄岩与玄武质熔体发生反应再富集形成的,玄武质熔体和方辉橄榄岩的混合比例为1∶9至1∶4。9个含Cpx方辉橄榄岩样品(含5个重复测试样)的Re和Os含量分别为0.19×10-9~1.49×10-9和2.91×10-9~5.40×10-9,187Re/188Os变化范围为0.169±0.009(2σ)~1.833±0.183(2σ),187Os/188Os变化范围相对较小,介于0.121 13±0.000 44~0.128 53±0.000 36(2σ)之间。含Cpx方辉橄榄岩的Re-Os参考等时线年龄为254±28 Ma。由于不同比例熔体的加入造成橄榄岩具有不同的Re/Os比值,因而不同含Cpx方辉橄榄岩样品具有不同187Os/188Os比值。样品的Re含量与烧失量中的H2O没有相关性,说明蛇纹石化对样品Re-Os体系的影响可以忽略,Re-Os同位素体系在低温地质作用下能够保持相对封闭。参考等时线年龄可能代表亏损方辉橄榄岩与玄武质熔体发生反应的时间,即含Cpx方辉橄榄岩的形成年龄,它表明在该时期特提斯洋经历了一次构造热事件。这一构造岩浆热事件的时间与早期定义的班公湖-怒江特提斯洋的裂解时间晚二叠世至早三叠世较为一致,推测本文MOR型蛇绿岩地幔橄榄岩的Re-Os同位素年龄可能代表班公湖-怒江特提斯洋开始裂解的时间。  相似文献

西藏普兰蛇绿岩以出露面积约600km2的特大型地幔橄榄岩体而引人注目。我们在普兰岩体的东段,完成了一条近垂直走向并穿过岩体的长约10km的地质剖面,其目的是探讨地幔橄榄岩体岩相的变化及其成因。研究表明,岩体主体为方辉橄榄岩,分布于岩体内部,二辉橄榄岩呈条带状,分布于岩体边部,方辉橄榄岩和二辉橄榄岩出露面积之比约为4∶1。剖面显示,二辉橄榄岩向方辉橄榄岩岩相渐变,Ol和Sp含量增加,Opx和Cpx减少,橄榄石Fo值和NiO含量也呈逐渐增加的特征。斜方辉石主要为顽火辉石(En=85~90),Mg#值变化于88~92之间,Al2O3含量0.89%~5.16%。单斜辉石包括顽透辉石和透辉石,以低铝(Al2O3=1.16%~6.02%),高镁(Mg#值为90~94)为特征。二辉橄榄岩的铬尖晶石Cr#值在19~32之间,低于方辉橄榄岩的Cr#值(25~72),两者之间呈连续变化。另一方面,方辉橄榄岩的各矿物百分含量、成分特征及部分熔融程度在岩体东部变化较大。结合前人成果,认为岩体中部分方辉橄榄岩不仅仅为单一的地幔残余,而可能经历了后期流体/熔体交代作用。依据尖晶石-橄榄石/单斜辉石矿物化学成分,估算出二辉橄榄岩是地幔源区经历约5%~12%部分熔融作用形成,而方辉橄榄岩则最终经历了约12%~32%部分熔融作用。研究结果表明,从二辉橄榄岩到方辉橄榄岩的演变,起因于部分熔融的差别,没有证据表明是受构造背景变化制约,因此,简单地用铬尖晶石等矿物成分的变化判断地幔橄榄岩的产出构造背景的方法值得商榷。  相似文献

尖晶石是地幔橄榄岩中一种非常重要的矿物,虽然含量很低,却可以作为其寄主岩石——地幔橄榄岩——的成因指示剂.普兰岩体东部铬尖晶石分布广泛,几乎在所有岩石类型中都有出现.通过矿物学特征的研究,认为尖晶石可分为两类,一类较自形,颜色较深;另一类多呈不规则状和蠕虫状,颜色较浅.根据其化学特征,又可分为富铬型的尖晶石(Cr#>60)和富铝型的尖晶石(Cr#<60),富铬型尖晶石主要出现在纯橄岩、蛇纹岩和辉石岩中,富铝型尖晶石主要出现在二辉橄榄岩中.其中,方辉橄榄岩中的尖晶石形态、化学成分变化比较大,说明它经历了较为复杂的形成和变化过程.通过对尖晶石矿物学和化学特征的综合研究,认为该区尖晶石具有深海橄榄岩和上部俯冲板片(SSZ)构造环境橄榄岩特征,普兰岩体可能先后经历了MOR和SSZ两种构造环境.  相似文献

祁连山玉石沟橄榄岩岩浆作用的记录和铬铁矿的成因   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
祁连山玉石沟蛇绿岩型铬铁矿是典型的高铬型铬铁矿床。通过对玉石沟铬铁矿和橄榄岩围岩进行原位定距离采样研究表明:全岩高的MgO和低的SiO2含量指示这些蛇纹石化橄榄岩不是简单的部分熔融残余,而是经历了后期的熔体再富集作用。玉石沟近矿橄榄岩尖晶石(Cr#65)和铬铁矿尖晶石的矿物包裹体化学特征反映矿体和围岩形成于俯冲带上覆岩石圈地幔。距离矿体由近及远,赋矿围岩尖晶石化学成分(Cr#=43.9~77.2,TiO2=0.06%~0.34%)无规律变化。这说明高铬型铬铁矿体成矿所需铬并非来源于围岩,而是与玻安质熔体渗滤有关。尖晶石含水矿物包裹体仅赋存在玉石沟铬铁矿尖晶石与硅酸盐矿物接触部位附近可能揭示了玉石沟铬铁矿体的成因:成矿铬尖晶石在上侵的含水熔体与周围方辉橄榄岩的反应过程中形成聚集。  相似文献

普兰蛇绿岩位于雅鲁藏布江缝合带西段,其中地幔橄榄岩由方辉橄榄岩、含单斜辉石方辉橄榄岩以及少量二辉橄榄岩及纯橄岩组成。尖晶石是地幔橄榄岩中常见的副矿物,可以作为重要的岩石学成因指示剂。在野外地质调查基础上,通过岩相观察、电子探针、尖晶石成分面分析、电子背反射衍射分析,可将普兰地幔橄榄岩铬尖晶石分为三类:第一类铬尖晶石呈自形,粒径较小(<100μm),或包裹于斜方辉石中,或杂乱分布于橄榄石和辉石之间,具有高Cr^#(>0.6)、低Mg^#(0.43~0.57)的特征,为部分熔融+玻安质熔体交代成因;第二类铬尖晶石呈半自形-他形,粒径较大(>100μm),常含有橄榄石、辉石包裹体,具有中Cr^#(0.17~0.42)、高Mg^#(0.63~0.77)的特点,主要受部分熔融作用影响;第三类铬尖晶石呈他形蠕虫状与辉石交生在一起构成后成合晶结构,粒径变化较大,具有低Cr#(0.17~0.28)、高Mg^#(0.67~0.77)的特点。EBSD分析结果显示尖晶石、辉石的结晶学优选方位(CPO)较为相似,表明为同一矿物分解而来,单斜辉石与大陆岩石圈地幔捕掳体中石榴子石的稀土元素对比表明构成后成合晶结构的辉石和铬尖晶石为具有大陆岩石圈地幔属性的高压石榴子石退变分解而成。综合分析表明:普兰蛇绿岩的地幔橄榄岩体在从石榴子石相深度上升过程中发生了石榴子石退变、岩石部分熔融及熔体渗透作用,岩体经历了威尔逊旋回初期的大陆裂谷阶段,主体经历了中-低程度的部分熔融,类似大洋中脊环境,局部受到了富硅、富镁玻安质熔体的影响。  相似文献

西昆仑库地蛇绿岩发育小规模的铬铁矿床,矿体呈豆荚状和层状、似层状,均与纯橄岩紧密伴生。这些纯橄岩主要由橄榄石和副矿物尖晶石组成,与方辉橄榄岩相比,橄榄岩中的橄榄石粒径粗(平均2.5mm),Mg#(88~90)低,这与它们全岩低Mg#(90)值,富Al_2O_3、TiO_2、Cr_2O_3、Fe_2O_3相吻合,与熔融残余成因的纯橄岩明显不同,反映了其很可能是由熔体与方辉橄榄岩反应而成。矿体主要由块状、浸染状及脉状铬铁矿石组成;铬铁矿石中的尖晶石具有低而相对稳定的Cr#(43~56),低于富铬型铬铁矿矿床中的铬铁矿(Cr#60)。块状矿石与纯橄岩呈突变接触,矿石中的尖晶石呈浑圆状,包裹有较多橄榄石、辉石等硅酸盐矿物及角闪石等含水硅酸盐矿物;浸染状铬铁矿石中的尖晶石与橄榄石颗粒构成交织结构,或呈云朵状,沿橄榄石颗粒边界相互连接,矿石的结构构造显示了熔/岩反应成因特征。通过计算分析,我们认为该区富铝型铬铁矿石是由拉斑玄武质熔体与地幔橄榄岩反应而成,由于熔体中含有较高的H_2O,参与反应的熔体可能源于弧后扩张脊环境。  相似文献

吉林双辽地区古近纪玄武岩中一方辉橄榄岩包体记录了上地幔交代作用的信息。原生斜方辉石被交代成因的单斜辉石和橄榄石所围绕,或形成反应边结构,或斜方辉石残留在次生单斜辉石中。这些反应结构仅出现在尖晶石的周围。电子探针分析表明次生单斜辉石具有高Mg#、Cr#和CaO/Al2O3比值,次生橄榄石高Mg#、CaO和Cr2O3,被交代的尖晶石边部高Cr#、CaO。由于交代作用并未影响橄榄岩体系的Mg#,而且熔体-岩石反应结构指示Opx(斜方辉石) Sp(尖晶石) 熔体(Ⅰ)→Cpx(单斜辉石) Ol(橄榄石) 熔体(Ⅱ),结合实验以及文献资料,认为双辽地区的岩石圈地幔受到了硅酸盐熔体的交代。这种交代导致橄榄岩中斜方辉石逐渐减少,单斜辉石和橄榄石逐渐增加,从而使方辉橄榄岩渐变成易剥橄榄岩。这种交代现象可能发生在软流圈-岩石圈接触带上的熔-岩反应区,暗示了在古近纪双辽地区岩石圈减薄和软流圈上涌导致的软流圈-岩石圈的相互作用仍在继续。  相似文献

内蒙古阿巴嘎旗新生代玄武岩中超镁铁岩包体的特征   总被引:2,自引:4,他引:2  
内蒙古东部阿巴嘎旗及其以北地区第四纪更新世钠质碱性火山岩中发现的超镁铁岩包体,主要为尖晶石二辉橄榄岩、方辉橄榄岩、纯橄榄岩、橄榄二辉岩、尖晶石单斜辉石岩和单斜辉石巨晶以及辉长岩、花岗闪长岩、石英长石片麻岩等壳源包体。超镁铁岩包体和巨晶的岩相学特征显示它们不是寄主玄武岩岩浆分离结晶堆积体;其主要元素、稀土元素特征与阿尔卑斯型橄榄岩相似,其组成接近于原始地幔岩值;同位素地球化学特征表明它们与寄主岩-玄武岩浆不是同源的;尖晶石二辉橄榄岩包体形成的平衡温度和压力范围分别为1056.9℃~1103.1℃,压力为1.50~1.84GPa,形成相当深度为49.5~60.72km。辉石岩包体形成温度为887.1℃~958.6℃,压力为1.25~1.4GPa,形成相当深度为41.25~46.2km。寄主玄武岩形成温度1390℃~1450℃,压力1.75~2.20GPa,形成相当深度为60~70km。可以认为,研究区在新生代发生了软流圈地幔上涌,导致岩石圈减薄以及地壳的拉张,大量岩浆物质沿构造通道溢出地表。其中超镁铁岩包体与寄主玄武岩浆之间没有熔体与残余物这种成因联系,它们是寄主玄武岩浆在上升过程中捕获的岩石圈地幔碎块。  相似文献

ABSTRACT

We investigated lherzolitic peridotites in the Cretaceous Purang ophiolite along the Yarlung Zhangbo suture zone (YZSZ) in SW Tibet to constrain their mantle–melt evolution history. Coarse-grained Purang lherzolites contain orthopyroxene (Opx) and olivine (Ol) porphyroclasts with embayments filled by small olivine (Ol) neoblasts. Both clinopyroxene (Cpx) and Opx display exsolution textures represented by lamellae structures. Opx exsolution (Opx1) in clinopyroxene (Cpx1) is made of enstatite, whose compositions (Al2O3 = 3.85–4.90 wt%, CaO = <3.77 wt%, Cr2O3 = 0.85–3.82 wt%) are characteristic of abyssal peridotites. Host clinopyroxenes (Cpx1) have higher Mg#s and Na2O, with lower TiO2 and Al2O3 contents than Cpx2 exsolution lamellae in Opx, and show variable LREE patterns. Pyroxene compositions of the lherzolites indicate 10–15% partial melting of a fertile mantle protolith. P–T estimates (1.3–2.3 GPa, 745–1067°C) and the trace element chemistry of pyroxenes with exsolution textures suggest crystallization depths of ~75 km in the upper mantle, where the original pyroxenes became decomposed, forming exsolved structures. Further upwelling of lherzolites into shallow depths in the mantle resulted in crystal–plastic deformation of the exsolved pyroxenes. Combined with the occurrence of microdiamond and ultrahigh-pressure (UHP) mineral inclusions in chromites of the Purang peridotites, the pyroxene exsolution textures reported here confirm a multi-stage partial melting history of the Purang lherzolites and at least three discrete stages of P-T conditions in the course of their upwelling through the mantle during their intra-oceanic evolution.  相似文献

Deformed and metamorphic ultramafic to mafic rocks emplaced into the Archaean Sargur supracrustal series (>3.0 Ga) in Karnataka, southern India, represent layered igneous bodies. The terrane has been affected by several episodes of deformation and metamorphism in the time span from 3.4 to 2.5 Ga ago.During the regional metamorphism about 2.5 Ga ago the igneous bodies re-equilibrated partly or completely at conditions of the upper amphibolite to granulite facies. The development of sagvandites with enstatite + magnesite and anthophyllite + magnesite-bearing assemblages, and of mafic garnet—pyroxene charnockites indicates the presence of CO2-rich intergranular fluids (XCO2 ? 0.5) in these rocks during metamorphism.The physical conditions of metamorphism have been estimated by applying methods of geothermobarometry to the recrystallized ultramafic assemblages with olivine, pyroxenes and spinel and to the charnockitic assemblages with garnet, pyroxenes, plagioclase and quartz. A best temperature estimate of 700 ± 30°C was derived with the geothermometers of Evans and Frost (Ol—Spi), Fabriès (Ol—Spi), Wells (Opx—Cpx), Powell (Opx—Cpx), Ellis and Green (Gra—Cpx), Lal and Raith (Gra—Opx), and Danckwerth and Newton (Al2O3-content in opx). A mean pressure estimate of 8.6 ± 0.8 kbar has been obtained with the models of Perkins and Newton (Gar—Opx/Cpx—Plag—Qtz). The PT data indicate a minimum crustal thickness of about 35 km at c. 2.5 Ga in this part of the South Indian Archaean craton.  相似文献

A new type of podiform chromitite was found at Wadi Hilti in the northern Oman ophiolite. It is within a late-intrusive dunite body, possibly derived from olivine-rich crystal mush, between the sheeted dike complex and upper gabbro. This chromitite forms small (<30 cm in thickness) pods with irregular to lenticular shapes. Neither layering nor graded bedding is observed within the pods. The chromitite is in the upper crust, by far shallower in ophiolite stratigraphy than the other podiform chromitites that have ever been found in the Moho transition zone to the upper mantle. It is distributed along a small felsic to gabbroic melt pool within the dunite body, which was formed by melting of gabbroic blocks captured by the mush. Chromian spinel was precipitated due to mixing of two kinds of melt, a basaltic interstitial melt from the mush and an evolved, possibly felsic, melt formed by the melting of gabbro blocks. The podiform chromitite reported here is strikingly similar in petrography and spinel chemistry to the stratiform chromitite from layered intrusions. The former contains plagioclase and clinopyroxene as matrix silicates instead of olivine as well as includes euhedral and fine spinel with solid mineral inclusions. Chromian spinel of the upper crustal podiform chromitite from Oman has relatively low content of (Cr2O3 + Al2O3), the Cr/(Cr + Al) atomic ratio of around 0.6, and the relatively high TiO2 content ranging from 1 to 3 wt%. We conclude that assimilation of relatively Si-rich materials (crustal rocks or mantle orthopyroxene) by olivine-spinel saturated melts can explain the genesis of any type of chromitite.Editorial responsibility: V.

The ophiolitic peridotites in the Wadi Arais area, south Eastern Desert of Egypt, represent a part of Neoproterozoic ophiolites of the Arabian-Nubian Shield (ANS). We found relics of fresh dunites enveloped by serpentinites that show abundances of bastite after orthopyroxene, reflecting harzburgite protoliths. The bulk-rock chemistry confirmed the harzburgites as the main protoliths. The primary mantle minerals such as orthopyroxene, olivine and chromian spinel in Arais serpentinites are still preserved. The orthopyroxene has high Mg# [=Mg/(Mg + Fe2+)], ~0.923 on average. It shows intra-grain chemical homogeneity and contains, on average, 2.28 wt.% A12O3, 0.88 wt.% Cr2O3 and 0.53 wt.% CaO, similar to primary orthopyroxenes in modern forearc peridotites. The olivine in harzburgites has lower Fo (93?94.5) than that in dunites (Fo94.3?Fo95.9). The Arais olivine is similar in NiO (0.47 wt.% on average) and MnO (0.08 wt.% on average) contents to the mantle olivine in primary peridotites. This olivine is high in Fo content, similar to Mg-rich olivines in ANS ophiolitic harzburgites, because of its residual origin. The chromian spinel, found in harzburgites, shows wide ranges of Cr#s [=Cr/(Cr + Al)], 0.46?0.81 and Mg#s, 0.34?0.67. The chromian spinel in dunites shows an intra-grain chemical homogeneity with high Cr#s (0.82?0.86). The chromian spinels in Arais peridotites are low in TiO2, 0.05 wt.% and YFe [= Fe3+/(Cr + Al + Fe3+)], ~0.06 on average. They are similar in chemistry to spinels in forearc peridotites. Their compositions associated with olivine’s Fo suggest that the harzburgites are refractory residues after high-degree partial melting (mainly ~25?30 % partial melting) and dunites are more depleted, similar to highly refractory peridotites recovered from forearcs. This is in accordance with the partial melting (>20 % melt) obtained by the whole-rock Al2O3 composition. The Arais peridotites have been possibly formed in a sub-arc setting (mantle wedge), where high degrees of partial melting were available during subduction and closing of the Mozambique Ocean, and emplaced in a forearc basin. Their equilibrium temperature based on olivine?spinel thermometry ranges from 650 to 780 °C, and their oxygen fugacity is high (Δlog ?O2?=?2.3 to 2.8), which is characteristic of mantle-wedge peridotites. The Arais peridotites are affected by secondary processes forming microinclusions inside the dunitic olivine, abundances of carbonates and talc flakes in serpentinites. These microinclusions have been formed by reaction between trapped fluids and host olivine in a closed system. Lizardite and chrysotile, based on Raman analyses, are the main serpentine minerals with lesser antigorite, indicating that serpentines were possibly formed under retrograde metamorphism during exhumation and near the surface at low T (<400 °C).  相似文献

东波超镁铁岩体产在雅鲁藏布江缝合带的西段,与周边白垩纪沉积岩地层和火山岩以断层接触.航磁资料显示该岩体约400km2规模,地表出露连续,地下有一定延深.超镁铁岩体由亏损的地幔橄榄岩组成,主要有高镁的方辉橄榄岩、纯橄岩和少量二辉橄榄岩.方辉橄榄岩和二辉橄榄岩中橄榄石和斜方辉石属高镁型,分别为Fo=89.5~91.5和Mg#=90~91.5.但二辉橄榄岩中的Al2O3和CaO含量明显高于方辉橄榄岩.方辉橄榄岩中单斜辉石Mg#=92~95,二辉橄榄岩的Mg#=92~93,两者的值也重叠.二辉橄榄岩中的Al2O3和CaO含量要明显高于方辉橄榄岩.这些均为阿尔卑斯型地幔橄榄岩的典型特征.纯橄岩中的橄榄石Fo=92~93.2,其斜方辉石和单斜辉石的Mg#=~93,但Al2O3和CaO的含量比方辉橄榄岩和二辉橄榄岩的低.三种岩石的成分变化规律,反映了地幔部分熔融程度的差异.二辉橄榄岩铬尖晶石的Cr#值20~30,反映为典型深海橄榄岩特征,指示MOR环境.与其不同的是,方辉橄榄岩的铬尖晶石的Cr#=20~75,指示MOR和SSZ两者兼有环境.岩石的原始地幔标准化的REE和微量元素蛛网图模式支持了上述的认识.东波地幔橄榄岩中的岩石学特征与产有大型铬铁矿床的罗布莎地幔橄榄岩可对比,岩体中已多处发现块状铬铁矿石,其铬铁矿的Cr2O3含量56%~59%,表明东波是寻找铬铁矿大矿和富矿甚具前景的一个超镁铁岩体.  相似文献

A suite of spinel peridotite xenoliths in Mesozoic basalts of the Tuoyun basin in the Tianshan area of northwest China has a high proportion of amphibole/mica-bearing lherzolites, with high Cpx/Opx ratios (mean 0.74). Many aspects of mineral chemistry in the Tuoyun peridotites are intermediate between those of refractory Archean cratonic mantle and fertile Phanerozoic mantle. These include Ni/Cr and the contents of transition metals and Y in olivine and orthopyroxene and the abundances of elements such as Na, Al, Ti, Y, Sr and LREE in clinopyroxene. The data suggest that the mantle in Tuoyun is moderately depleted in basaltic components relative to both the refractory Archean mantle and the fertile Phanerozoic mantle. The wide variations in the CaO/Al2O3 (0.9–3.5) of whole rocks and LREE/HREE (0.8–14.2) and Ti/Eu (971–5,765) of clinopyroxenes in the Tuoyun peridotites are interpreted as the metasomatism of hydrous carbonatitic and potassic melt or the cumulative effects of mantle metasomatism by different agents (carbonatite and small-volume silicate melts) through time. The Tuoyun mantle shows closer affinity to the type of mantle found beneath the Proterozoic Cathaysia block, and especially to that beneath the East Central Asia Orogenic Belt (ECAOB), than to the mantle beneath the Archean North China Craton. This implies that the Tianshan subcontinental lithospheric mantle may have been generated during the accretion of the ECAOB. The high proportion of fine-grained microstructures, high Cpx/Opx ratio, obvious Ca enrichment and lower overall depletion in the Tuoyun mantle relative to that in other parts of the ECAOB reflect stronger mechanical and chemical modification of the Tuoyun mantle, near the translithospheric Talas-Ferghana strike-slip fault, which played a major role in controlling the strength of the mantle lithosphere and has channeled the upwelling mantle.  相似文献

We present the whole rock and the mineral chemical data for upper mantle peridotites from the San-Jiang region in Yunnan, SW China. These peridotites are a part of a Paleo-Tethyan ophiolite belt occurring along the Jinshajiang and Lancangjiang suture zones. All samples of the Jinshajiang and Lancangjiang ultramafic rocks are completely serpentinized. The Jinshajiang serpentinites are characterized by no relict of olivine and pyroxene, and the Cr# content of spinels is 0.32–0.49. The Lancangjiang serpentinites were collected from two different locations; the northern location which has some relict of Opx(Al2O3 is 0.13–2.2 wt%, TiO 2 is 0.004–0.057 wt% and Mg# content is 0.895–0.933) and the Cr# content of spinel is 0.26-0.55; the southern location, which has some relict of Olivine(Fo = 90–92.5 and NiO = 0.12–0.26 wt%), and spinel Cr# ranging from 0.41 to 0.57. The whole rock geochemical and the mineral chemistry data imply that the Jinshajiang and Lancangjiang serpentinites represent abyssal peridotites residues after ~15–20% partial melting for the Jinshajiang and Lancangjiang serpentinites(south location), and ~11–19% partial melting for the Lancangjiang serpentinites(north location). In addition, the compositional trends of the spinel analyses of the Lancangjiang serpentinites imply that the MORB melt-peridotite interaction process played a significant role during their evolution. These processes are evidenced by an increase in Cr# with an increase in TiO 2, whereas the spinel analyses of the Jinshajiang serpentinites display an increase in Cr# with a decrease in Ti O2, indicating that the Jinshajiang serpentinites were subjected to a simple partial melting process.  相似文献

The compositions of multiply saturated partial melts are valuablefor the thermodynamic information that they contain, but aredifficult to determine experimentally because they exist onlyover a narrow temperature range at a given pressure. Here wetry a new approach for determining the composition of the partialmelt in equilibrium with olivine, orthopyroxene, clinopyroxeneand spinel (Ol + Opx + Cpx + Sp + Melt) in the system CaO–MgO–Al2O3–SiO2(CMAS) at 1·1 GPa: various amounts of K2O are added tothe system, and the resulting melt compositions and temperatureare extrapolated to zero K2O. The ‘sandwich’ experimentalmethod was used to minimize problems caused by quench modification,and Opx and Cpx were previously synthesized at conditions nearthose of the melting experiments to ensure they had appropriatecompositions. Results were then checked by reversal crystallizationexperiments. The results are in good agreement with previouswork, and establish the anhydrous solidus in CMAS to be at 1320± 10°C at 1·1 GPa. The effect of K2O is todepress the solidus by 5·8°C/wt %, while the meltcomposition becomes increasingly enriched in SiO2, being quartz-normativeabove 4 wt % K2O. Compared with Na2O, K2O has a stronger effectin depressing the solidus and modifying melt compositions. Theisobaric invariant point in the system CMAS–K2O at whichOl + Opx + Cpx + Sp + Melt is joined by sanidine (San) is at1240 ± 10°C. During the course of the study severalother isobaric invariant points were identified and their crystaland melt compositions determined in unreversed experiments:Opx + Cpx + Sp + An + Melt in the system CMAS at 1315 ±10°C; in CMAS–K2O, Opx + Cpx + Sp + An + San + Meltat 1230 ± 10°C and Opx + Sp + An + San + Sapph +Melt at 1230 ± 10°C, where An is anorthite and Sapphis sapphirine. Coexisting San plus An in three experiments helpdefine the An–San solvus at 1230–1250°C.

To elaborate physicochemical models for the origin of crystalline rocks, experimental studies of the field of high-alumina assemblages of the system CaO–MgO–Al2O3–SiO2 were carried out at 10–30 kbar and 1250–1535 °C. We have determined the phase relations between the melt (L) and An, Sp, Cpx, Cor, and Ga, the slope of the rays of the monovariant reactions An + Sp = Cpx + Cor + (Ga) and L = Cpx +Ga + Cor + Sp, the position of the nonvariant point (An, Sp, Cpx, Cor, Ga, L), and the compositions of phases participating in these reactions. Based on a topological analysis of the studied segment of the system CaO–MgO–Al2O3–SiO2, we have substantiated that “eclogitization” must follow the reaction Opx + An + Sp = Cpx + Ga. A fundamental continuous series of eutectic monovariant equilibria was observed: L = Cpx + Opx + Fo + An, L = Cpx + Opx + An + Sp, L = Cpx (+ Ga) + An + Sp, and L = Cpx + Cor (+ Ga) + An. A change in the melt composition in this series of eutectic reactions depending on pressure must reflect the most likely magma genesis trend in nature. Comparision of the composition fields in which the above series of reactions is observed with the composition fields of the rocks of magmatic formations showed that this series is most similar to the alkali-earth series of rocks. The mineralogical compositions of cumulates and phenocrysts found in the effusive and dike varieties of these rocks correspond to unique sets of subsolidus phase associations and individual subsolidus phases crystallizing in this fundamental eutectic series.  相似文献

Experiments have been performed on the system MgO-SiO2-Cr-O at 0-2.88 GPa and 1100-1450℃,focusing on the stability of Cr^2 in olivine(O1),orthopyroxene(Opx) and spinel(Sp) and its partitioning between these phases.Analytical reagent grade chemicals,MgO,SiO2,Cr2O3.and Cr were used to make starting mixtures.Excess Cr(50%) was then added in these mixtures to ensure that the resultant phases were in equilibrium with the metal Cr.Flux of BaO B2O3(%) was added for facilitating experimental equilibrium and crystal growth.Cr was used as capsule material.All phases in the product were identified by X-ray and analyzed by electron microprobe,The contents of CrO in the different phases(O1,Opx and Sp)were calculated according to stoichiometry.The obtained results of calculation indicate that Cr^3 in Ol and Opx is negligible.The experimental results show;(a) with increasing temperature and decreasing pressure,Cr^2 solubility in Ol,Opx and Sp increases;(b) with in creasing temperature,the partitioning coefficient of Mg and Cr^2 between Ol and Opx decreases,that between Opx and Sp increases,and that between Ol and Sp remains almost unchanged;(c) the effect of pressure on all partitioning coefficients is negligible.  相似文献
