Concentrations of rare-earth elements (REE), Sc, Fe, Co, Cr, Na and Ir in the bulk sample and mineral separates of the isotopically unique Allende inclusion, EK 1-4-1, were determined by instrumental neutron activation analysis. REE concentrations were also determined by mass-spectrometric isotope dilution for two density separates.The inclusion showed enrichment of light REE over heavy REE with a positive Yb anomaly, thus showing a tendency to resemble group II fine-grained inclusions in REE abundances, although EK 1-4-1 is a coarse-grained inclusion. High Cr concentrations also indicate group II affinity. However, high Ir (6 ppm) and Sc (105 ppm), and low FeO (1.80%), and Co (13.8 ppm) concentrations in the bulk sample and low Na concentrations in mineral separates show group I affinity.Between melilite and pyroxene fractions, the same samples in which mass-fractionated O isotope ratios were observed (Clayton and Mayeda, 1977), REE, Sc, Co and Fe showed distributions which are substantially different from those observed for “ordinary” Allende type B inclusions. These two minerals do not appear to be in equilibrium with respect to trace element distributions.The results indicate that the isotopically unique EK 1-4-1 is also unusual in its elemental abundances and distributions. 相似文献

Spinel peridotite xenoliths from the Atsagin-Dush volcanic centre, SE Mongolia range from fertile lherzolites to clinopyroxene(cpx)-bearing
harzburgites. The cpx-poor peridotites typically contain interstitial fine-grained material and silicate glass and abundant
fluid inclusions in minerals, some have large vesicular melt pockets that apparently formed after primary clinopyroxene and
spinel. No volatile-bearing minerals (amphibole, phlogopite, apatite, carbonate) have been found in any of the xenoliths.
Fifteen peridotite xenoliths have been analysed for major and trace elements; whole-rock Sr isotope compositions and O isotope
composition of all minerals were determined for 13 xenoliths. Trace element composition and Sr-Nd isotope compositions were
also determined in 11 clinopyroxene and melt pocket separates. Regular variations of major and moderately incompatible trace
elements (e.g. heavy-rare-earth elements) in the peridotite series are consistent with its formation as a result of variable
degrees of melt extraction from a fertile lherzolite protolith. The Nd isotope compositions of LREE (light-rare-earth elements)-depleted
clinopyroxenes indicate an old (≥ 1 billion years) depletion event. Clinopyroxene-rich lherzolites are commonly depleted in
LREE and other incompatible trace elements whereas cpx-poor peridotites show metasomatic enrichment that can be related to
the abundance of fine-grained interstitial material, glass and fluid inclusions in minerals. The absence of hydrous minerals,
ubiquitous CO2-rich microinclusions in the enriched samples and negative anomalies of Nb, Hf, Zr, and Ti in primitive mantle-normalized
trace element patterns of whole rocks and clinopyroxenes indicate that carbonate melts may have been responsible for the metasomatic
enrichment. Low Cu and S contents and high δ34S values in whole-rock peridotites could be explained by interaction with oxidized fluids that may have been derived from
subducted oceanic crust. The Sr-Nd isotope compositions of LREE-depleted clinopyroxenes plot either in the MORB (mid-ocean-ridge
basalt) field or to the right of the mantle array, the latter may be due to enrichment in radiogenic Sr. The LREE-enriched
clinopyroxenes and melt pockets plot in the ocean island-basalt field and have Sr-Nd isotope signatures consistent with derivation
from a mixture of the DMM (depleted MORB mantle) and EM (enriched mantle) II sources.

REE abundances in minerals from spinel peridotite xenoliths from West Germany, the south-western U.S. and Mongolia decrease in the order clinopyroxene > orthopyroxene > olivine > spinel. While clinopyroxenes are similar in absolute chondrite-normalized concentrations to those known from other studies, orthopyroxenes and olivines are significantly lower in LREE although comparable in HREE. Spinels are much lower in all REE than any previously reported values and are completely negligible for the REE budget of peridotites.Partition coefficients for most orthopyroxene/clinopyroxene pairs increase systematically from La to Lu. Olivine/clinopyroxene and spinel/clinopyroxene partition coefficients increase from the intermediate rare earth elements to Lu and normally are higher for La compared to Sm.The application of Nagasawa's (1966) elastic lattice model suggests that all heavy but only minor amounts of the light REE substitute into structural positions of orthopyroxene and olivine.Significant differences between orthopyroxene/clinopyroxene partition coefficients for various xenoliths may be assigned to dependences upon equilibration temperature and bulk chemistry.Apart from grain surface contaminations, fluid inclusions which are practically always present in mantle minerals, can highly concentrate light rare earth elements and thus may be responsible for unexpectedly high concentrations of incompatible elements frequently reported for mantle olivines or orthopyroxenes. 相似文献

Pressure-Temperature Path Recorded in the Yangkou Garnet Peridotite, in Su-Lu Ultrahigh-pressure Metamorphic Belt, Eastern China 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Chemical variations along with changes in microstructure ofthe principal constituent minerals make it possible to identifyat least four equilibrium stages in the evolution of the Yangkougarnet peridotite in the Su-Lu ultrahigh-pressure metamorphicbelt, eastern China: Stage Ia primary garnet lherzolitestage represented by coarse-grained (a few millimeters size)porphyroclastic aluminous pyroxenes + chromian spinel ±garnet; Stage IIan ultrahigh-pressure (UHP) stage definedby fine-grained matrix phases (0·10·3 mmsize) of garnet + extremely low-Al orthopyroxene + high-Na clinopyroxene+ chromite; Stage IIIa medium-pressure stage definedby fine-grained mineral aggregates (<0·10·2mm size) mainly composed of aluminous spinel + high-Al orthopyroxenein the matrix; Stage IVan amphibolite- to greenschist-faciesstage defined by poikiloblastic amphibole. Orthopyroxeneclinopyroxenethermometry and an empirical spinel barometer give temperaturesof around 800830°C and pressures of 1·22·9GPa for porphyroclasts of Stage I. Garnetorthopyroxene,garnetclinopyroxene and empirical spinel geothermobarometersgive relatively uniform PT conditions for the matrixgarnetorthopyroxeneclinopyroxenechromiteassemblage of Stage II ( 相似文献

Summary A suite of lithics (ejecta) collected from the latest erupted pyroclastic products of the Alban Hills volcano (Central Italy)
has been studied to determine their mineralogical composition and to investigate their genesis. The ejecta commonly have granular
texture and consist of coarse-grained crystals often associated with a fine- to medium-grained matrix. The mineralogical composition
is variable and consists of both typical igneous minerals and contact metamorphic phases. Garnet, clinopyroxene K-feldspar
are almost ubiquitous, whereas leucite, wollastonite, sodalite-group minerals, phlogopite, nepheline and phillipsite are present
in most of the ejecta; minor and accessory phases include cuspidine, amphibole, pyrrhotite, magnetite, apatite, uranpyrochlore,
sphene, kalsilite, and melilite; anorthite, zircon and fluorine-bearing Ca, Zr silicate phases, larnite, and baryte are found
sporadically. Ca, REE, Th silicophosphates occur in many samples generally disseminated along interstices and fractures of
main minerals. Calcite is present as discrete crystals sometimes enclosed in other minerals, as granules in the fine-grained
matrix and as late microcrystalline veins. It shows high oxygen and low carbon isotope ratios with δ18O = + 17.96 to + 27.19, and δ13C = −4.74 to −19.57.
Clinopyroxene ranges from diopside to compositions strongly enriched with both Ca-Tschermak’s and esseneite components. Feldspars
are generally potassic even though Ba and Sr are found in significant concentrations in some samples. K-feldspars from wollastonite-bearing
ejecta are often rimmed with elongated felty crystals identified by X-ray diffraction analysis as leucite. These feldspars
show a depletion in Si, and enrichment in Al and K from core to rim. Significant compositional variations are also shown by
various other phases such as nepheline, apatite, Ca, REE, Th silicophosphate.
The occurrence of igneous and contact metamorphic minerals, as well as the chemical variations of clinopyroxenes and feldspars
in the investigated ejecta reveal complex genetic processes related to the interaction between potassic magma and wall rocks.
The Ca-rich composition of most phases points to a carbonate nature for the wall rocks. Textural evidence suggests that coarse-grained
rocks formed at the margin of the magma chamber were invaded by a late, volatile rich potassic liquid which crystallized as
a fine-grained matrix and produced disaggregation and reaction of early formed minerals. Fluid phases percolating through
the rocks generated infiltration metasomatism and deposited some uncommon phases rich in Ca, REE, Th, U, which are found along
cracks and at the margins of early crystallized minerals.
Overall, the all spectrum of the minerals found in this study are also typical of carbonatitic rocks. Their presence in the
Alban Hills ejecta demonstrates that their genesis can be related to interaction between ultrapotassic melts and carbonate
wall rocks, in addition to precipitation from carbonatitic melts.

The forsterite-bearing Type B (FoB) CAI SJ101 consists of three major structural units: (1) light patches of sector-zoned, poikilitic Al-rich clinopyroxene (Cpx) with numerous inclusions of small spinel grains and aggregates and subordinate amounts of Mg-rich melilite (Mel) and anorthite (An) (Sp-Cpx lithology), (2) dark sinuous bands of Al-rich clinopyroxene with large (up to ∼300 × 60 μm) poikilitically enclosed euhedral forsterite (Fo) crystals (Fo-Cpx lithology), and (3) the external Cpx-Sp-An rim overlying the entire inclusion. The two major lithologies are always separated by a transition zone of clinopyroxene poikilitically enclosing both forsterite and spinel. The patches of the Sp-Cpx lithology exhibit significant textural and mineralogical variability that is size-dependent. Small patches typically consist of Cpx and spinel with minor remnants of melilite and/or its alteration products. Large patches contain Mel-An-rich cores with either equigranular-ophitic-subophitic or ‘lacy’ textures reminiscent of those in Types B or C CAIs, respectively. All silicates poikilitically enclose numerous spinel grains of identical habit. Both melilite and anorthite gradually disappear toward the boundary with the Fo-Cpx lithology. Neither the evaporation mantle of Al-rich melilite typical of other FoBs nor the Wark-Lovering rim is present. Secondary minerals include grossular, monticellite, magnetite, and a few grains of wollastonite, andradite, and nepheline.Being a rather typical FoB mineralogically and chemically, texturally SJ101 differs from other FoBs in displaying the nearly complete segregation of forsterite from spinel which occur only in the Fo-Cpx and Sp-Cpx lithologies, respectively. The complex, convoluted internal structure of SJ101 suggests that the coarse-grained Sp-An-Mel-Cpx cores and Fo-Cpx lithology represent the precursor materials of FoBs, proto-CAIs and Fo-rich accretionary rims. While the inferred chemistry and mineralogy of the Fo-rich rims are fairly typical, the high Åk content in SJ101 melilite (78.7-82.3 mol.%) implies that the SJ101 proto-CAIs represent a new type of CAIs that has not been sampled before. This type of CAIs might have formed by remelting of spinel-rich condensates.The Group II REE pattern, slightly negative δ29Si and δ25Mg values, and nearly solar ratios of the major elements in the bulk SJ101 suggest that its precursors, proto-CAIs and Fo-rich rims, could have formed by a non-equilibrium condensation in a closed system of solar composition somewhat depleted in a super-refractory evaporation residue. The proposed formation scenario of SJ101 invokes a non-steady cooling and condensation of the nebular gas interrupted by at least two distinct melting episodes required to account for the igneous textures of the Mel-An-Cpx-rich cores (proto-CAIs) and the Fo-Cpx lithology. 相似文献

INAA of ten coarse-grained, melilite-spinel-bearing inclusions in the Allende meteorite for Ca, Sc, Hf, Ta, W, Os, Ir, Ru, La, Ce, Sm, Eu, Tb, Dy, Yb, Fe, Co, Cr and Au reveals that all of the refractory elements are enriched by a mean factor of 18.6 relative to their concentrations in Cl chondrites, consistent with a high-temperature condensation origin for the inclusions. Os, Ir and Ru were probably incorporated by the inclusions as tiny nuggets of an alloy in which they were dissolved in cosmic proportion to one another. Sc and Hf entered the inclusions in a separate phase, also in cosmic proportion, accompanied by a fraction of the REE. Bulk REE abundances are independent of the major minerals in the inclusions; yet, data from mineral separates suggest that the REE were partitioned between coexisting melilite and pyroxene according to crystal structure controls. A two-stage model is proposed in which the REE first entered the inclusions as trace, refractory condensate phases and then re-distributed themselves between the crystallizing major phases after the inclusions were melted in the nebula. 相似文献

Iron isotope variations in spinel peridotite xenoliths from North China Craton: implications for mantle metasomatism 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1

Iron isotopes, together with mineral elemental compositions of spinel peridotite xenoliths and clinopyroxenites from Hannuoba and Hebi Cenozoic alkaline basalts, were analyzed to investigate iron isotopic features of the lithospheric mantle beneath the North China Craton. The results show that the Hannuoba spinel peridotite xenoliths have small but distinguishable Fe isotopic variations. Overall variations in δ57Fe are in a range of ?0.25 to 0.14‰ for olivine, ?0.17 to 0.17‰ for orthopyroxene, ?0.21 to 0.27‰ for clinopyroxene, and ?0.16 to 0.26‰ for spinel, respectively. Clinopyroxene has the heaviest iron isotopic ratio and olivine the lightest within individual sample. No clear linear relationships between the mineral pairs on “δ-δ” plot suggest that iron isotopes of mineral separates analyzed have been affected largely by some open system processes. The broadly negative correlations between mineral iron isotopes and metasomatic indexes such as spinel Cr#, (La/Yb)N ratios of clinopyroxenes suggest that iron isotopic variations in different minerals and peridotites were probably produced by mantle metasomatism. The Hebi phlogopite-bearing lherzolite, which is significantly modified by metasomatic events, appears to be much heavier isotopically than clinopyroxene-poor lherzolite. This study further confirms previous conclusions that the lithospheric mantle has distinguishable and heterogeneous iron isotopic variations at the xenoliths scale. Mantle metasomatism is the most likely cause for the iron isotope variations in mantle peridotites. 相似文献

Peridotite xenoliths found in Cenozoic alkali basalts of northern Victoria Land, Antarctica, vary from fertile spinel-lherzolite
to harzburgite. They often contain glass-bearing pockets formed after primary pyroxenes and spinel. Few samples are composite
and consist of depleted spinel lherzolite crosscut by amphibole veins and/or lherzolite in contact with poikilitic wehrlite.
Peridotite xenoliths are characterized by negative Al2O3–Mg# and TiO2–Mg# covariations of clino- and orthopyroxenes, low to intermediate HREE concentrations in clinopyroxene, negative Cr–Al trend
in spinel, suggesting variable degrees of partial melting. Metasomatic overprint is evidenced by trace element enrichment
in clinopyroxene and sporadic increase of Ti–Fetot. Preferential Nb, Zr, Sr enrichments in clinopyroxene associated with high Ti–Fetot contents constrain the metasomatic agent to be an alkaline basic melt. In composite xenoliths, clinopyroxene REE contents
increase next to the veins suggesting metasomatic diffusion of incompatible element. Oxygen isotope data indicate disequilibrium
conditions among clinopyroxene, olivine and orthopyroxene. The highest δ18O values are observed in minerals of the amphibole-bearing xenolith. The δ18Ocpx correlations with clinopyroxene modal abundance and geochemical parameters (e.g. Mg# and Cr#) suggest a possible influence
of partial melting on oxygen isotope composition. Thermobarometric estimates define a geotherm of 80°C/GPa for the refractory
lithosphere of NVL, in a pressure range between 1 and 2.5 GPa. Clinopyroxene microlites of melt pockets provide P–T data close
to the anhydrous peridotite solidus and confirm that they originated from heating and decompression during transport in the
host magma. All these geothermometric data constrain the mantle potential temperature to values of 1250–1350°C, consistent
with the occurrence of mantle decompressional melting in a transtensive tectonic regime for the Ross Sea region. 相似文献

The equilibrium crystallization sequence at 1 atmosphere in air of a melt corresponding in composition to the average composition of Type B Ca-Al-rich inclusions from the Allende meteorite is: spinel (1550°C) → melilite (1400°C; Åk22) → anorthite (1260°C) → Ti-Al-rich clinopyroxene (1230°C; “Ti-fassaite”). The melilite becomes increasingly åkermanitic with decreasing temperature. The pyroxene is similar in composition to fassaites from Type B inclusions. Preliminary results suggest that the crystallization sequence is similar at oxygen fugacities near the iron-wüstite buffer.The results of these experiments have been integrated with available phase equilibrium data in the system CaO-MgO-Al2O3-SiO2TiO2 and a phase diagram for predicting the crystallization sequences of liquids with compositions of coarse-grained Ca-Al-rich inclusions has been developed.Available bulk compositions of coarse-grained inclusions form a well-defined trend in terms of major elements, extending from Type A and Bl inclusions near the spinel-melilite join to more pyroxene-rich Type B2 inclusions. The trend deviates from the expected sequence of solid condensates from a nebular gas at P = 10?3 atm if pure diopside is assumed to be the clinopyroxene that condenses. The Type A-B1 end of the trend is similar in composition to calculated equilibrium condensates at 1202–1227°C and the trend as a whole parallels the sequence of condensates expected from diopside condensation at ~ 1170°C. The trend is consistent to first order with the condensation of solid Ti-rich fassaite in place of pure diopside at higher temperatures than those at which pure diopside is predicted to condense. Partially molten condensates may be likely in this case or if the nebular pressure is higher than 10?3 atm. 相似文献

A rare earth element-rich carbonatite dyke at Bayan Obo, Inner Mongolia, North China 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
Summary ?A carbonatite dyke, extremely enriched in rare earth elements (REE), is reported from Bayan Obo, Inner Mongolia, North China.
The REE content in the dyke varies from 1 wt% to up to 20 wt%. The light REEs are enriched and highly fractionated relative
to the heavy REEs, and there is no Eu anomaly. Although carbon isotope δ13C (PDB) values of the carbonatites (−7.3 to −4.7‰) are within the range of normal mantle (−5±2‰), oxygen isotope δ18O (SMOW) (11.9 to 17.7‰) ratios apparently are higher than those of the mantle (5.7±1.0‰), indicating varying degrees of exchange
with hydrothermal fluids during or after magmatic crystallization. The carbonatite is the result of partial melting followed
by fractional crystallization. Primary carbonatite melt was formed by less than 1% partial melting of enriched mantle, leaving
a garnet-bearing residue. The melt then rose to a crustal magma chamber and underwent fractional crystallization, producing
further REE enrichment. The REE and trace element distribution patterns of the carbonatites are similar to those of fine-grained
dolomite marble, the ore-host rock of the Bayan Obo REE–Nb–Fe giant mineral deposit. This fact may indicate a petrogenetic
link between the dykes described here and the Bayan Obo mineral deposit.

Optical microscopy, secondary electron microscopy and analytical electron microscopy were used to characterize crystallographic
orientation relationships between oriented mineral inclusions and clinopyroxene (Cpx) host from the Hujialing garnet clinopyroxenite
within the Sulu ultrahigh-pressure (UHP) terrane, eastern China. One garnet clinopyroxenite sample (2HJ-2C) and one megacrystic
garnet-bearing garnet clinopyroxenite (RZ-11D) were studied. Porphyroblastic clinopyroxene from sample 2HJ-2C contains oriented
inclusions of ilmenite (Ilm), spinel (Spl), magnetite and garnet, whereas clinopyroxene inclusions within megacrystic garnet
from sample RZ-11D contain oriented inclusions of ilmenite and amphibole. Specific crystallographic relationships were observed
between ilmenite/spinel plates and host clinopyroxene in sample 2HJ-2C and between ilmenite plates and host clinopyroxene
in sample RZ-11D, i.e. [1[`1]00 1\bar{1}00 ]Ilm//[0[`1]0 0\bar{1}0 ]Cpx (0001)Ilm//(100)Cpx; and [110]Spl//[0[`1]0 0\bar{1}0 ]Cpx ([`1]11 \bar{1}11 )Spl//(100)Cpx. These inclusions are suggested to be primary precipitates via solid-state exsolutions. Most of the needle-like magnetite/spinel
inclusions generally occur at the rims or along fractures of clinopyroxene within sample 2HJ-2C. Despite the epitaxial relation
with host clinopyroxene, these magnetite/spinel needles would have resulted from fluid/melt infiltrations. Non-epitaxial garnet
lamellae in clinopyroxene of sample 2HJ-2C were formed via fluid infiltration-deposition primarily along (010) and subordinately
along (100) partings. Epitaxial amphibole plates (with a thickness <1 μm) and lamellae (with a thickness = 1–10 μm) in host
clinopyroxene of sample RZ-11D were probably results of hydration processes, although amphibole plates could otherwise be
interpreted as exsolution products. Temporal relations between mineral inclusions in each sample can be established, and a
semi-quantitative P–T path for this garnet clinopyroxenite body was derived accordingly. The present results show that the
Hujialing garnet clinopyroxenite may not have subducted to mantle depths as deep as 250 km during UHP metamorphism as suggested
by previous studies. This study demonstrates that the crystallographic and temporal/spatial relationships between aligned
inclusions and host minerals are essential to a correct genetic interpretation of metamorphic rocks. 相似文献

An SEM, REE, and mineral Sm-Nd isotope study on olivine-plagioclase coronas in the Vestre Dale gabbro, Norway, was carried out in order to solve the temporal relationships within these coronas. It is demonstrated that in contrast to common models, corona formation is a multistage, late-magmatic process, starting with the formation of orthopyroxene by (partial) dissolution of olivine, followed by the nucleation and rapid outward growth of orthopyroxene+spinel symplectites at its outer margin, and concluded by replacement of this precursory outer shell by calcic amphibole. Isotopic equilibrium between inner shell orthopyroxene and the magmatic assemblage, and the REE contents of orthopyroxene and outer shell amphibole also provide strong arguments for a magmatic origin, with the local availability of fractionated magma acting as a limiting factor. The absence of replacement of intercumulus clinopyroxene by amphibole also favours a late stage magmatic rather than a metamorphic origin for corona amphibole. 相似文献

Inter-mineral Fe isotope variations in mantle-derived rocks and implications for the Fe geochemical cycle 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Iron isotope and major- and minor-element compositions of coexisting olivine, clinopyroxene, and orthopyroxene from eight spinel peridotite mantle xenoliths; olivine, magnetite, amphibole, and biotite from four andesitic volcanic rocks; and garnet and clinopyroxene from seven garnet peridotite and eclogites have been measured to evaluate if inter-mineral Fe isotope fractionation occurs in high-temperature igneous and metamorphic minerals and if isotopic fractionation is related to equilibrium Fe isotope partitioning or a result of open-system behavior. There is no measurable fractionation between silicate minerals and magnetite in andesitic volcanic rocks, nor between olivine and orthopyroxene in spinel peridotite mantle xenoliths. There are some inter-mineral differences (up to 0.2‰ in 56Fe/54Fe) in the Fe isotope composition of coexisting olivine and clinopyroxene in spinel peridotites. The Fe isotope fractionation observed between clinopyroxene and olivine appears to be a result of open-system behavior based on a positive correlation between the Δ56Feclinopyroxene-olivine fractionation and the δ56Fe value of clinopyroxene and olivine. There is also a significant difference in the isotopic compositions of garnet and clinopyroxene in garnet peridotites and eclogites, where the average Δ56Feclinopyroxene-garnet fractionation is +0.32 ± 0.07‰ for six of the seven samples. The one sample that has a lower Δ56Feclinopyroxene-garnet fractionation of 0.08‰ has a low Ca content in garnet, which may reflect some crystal chemical control on Fe isotope fractionation. The Fe isotope variability in mantle-derived minerals is interpreted to reflect subduction of isotopically variable oceanic crust, followed by transport through metasomatic fluids. Isotopic variability in the mantle might also occur during crystal fractionation of basaltic magmas within the mantle if garnet is a liquidus phase. The isotopic variations in the mantle are apparently homogenized during melting processes, producing homogenous Fe isotope compositions during crust formation. 相似文献

Many of the coarse-grained peridotite inclusions in basanitesfrom Nunivak Island, Alaska, contain amphibole and a smallerfraction also contain phlogopite and apatite. All of these peridotiteshave light REE/heavy REE abundance ratios greater than chondritesand many have abundances of K, Rb, Sr, Ba and light REE whichexceed estimates for primitive mantle. On the basis of mineraltextures and compositions we infer that the clinopyroxene, amphibole,phlogopite and apatite equilibrated with a metasomatic fluid.Isotopic (Sr and Nd) ratios and parent-daughter abundance datafor the coarse-grained peridotites constrain the age of themetasomatism to be less than 200 million years. Associated amphibole pyroxenite inclusions are not metasomatized;these inclusions probably formed as crystal segregates froman alkalic magma. Both pyroxenites and coarse-grained peridotitesare isotopically similar to basalts from Nunivak Island. Usingthese data, we propose a model in which the metasomatized peridotiteswere wallrocks located adjacent to the pyroxenites, and thatmetasomatism of these peridotites was caused by the infiltrationof a residual silicate melt or volatile-rich fluid derived fromthe parental magma of the pyroxenites; i.e. the metasomatismwas a consequence of basaltic magmatism. Furthermore, the parentalmagma of the pyroxenites was probably petrogenetically relatedto the Nunivak volcanism. REE modelling of fluids in equilibriumwith clinopyroxenes from the coarse-grained peridotites is consistentwith this model. 相似文献

Orthopyroxene-rich olivine websterite xenoliths (OWB2) in Palaeogene basanites in East Serbia are mostly composed of tabular low-Al2O3 orthopyroxene (> 70 vol.%, Mg# 85–87) containing tiny Cr spinel inclusions. Orthopyroxene shows a slightly U-shaped primitive mantle-normalized trace element pattern with strong peaks at U and Pb, similar to that of orthopyroxene from normal regional peridotitic mantle. In between the orthopyroxenes are interstitial spaces composed of partially altered olivine (Mg# 85–87), clinopyroxene, Ti-rich spinel, Mg-bearing calcite, K-feldspar, apatite, ilmenite and relicts of a hydrous mineral. Clinopyroxene appears as selvages around orthopyroxene and as coarser euhedral crystals. Trace element patterns of the clinopyroxene selvages resemble those of adjacent orthopyroxene, whereas the coarser ones have flatter and more LREE- and LILE-enriched patterns, similar to that of metasomatic clinopyroxene. The OWB2 xenoliths are interpreted as having formed in two stages. During Stage I orthopyroxene crystallized, along with some spinel, olivine and probably hydrous phase(s). This original OWB2 lithology was a hydrous olivine-bearing orthopyroxenite that crystallised from subduction-related SiO2-saturated, boninite-like magmas. During Stage II the interstitial minerals formed due to infiltration of a low-SiO2, high-CaO and CO2-rich external melt, accompanied by decomposition of original H2O-bearing minerals. The calculated composition of the infiltrating liquid corresponds to a mafic alkaline melt similar to the basanitic host but more enriched in CO2, LREE and LILE. Metasomatism is interpreted in terms of small degree melts related to the Palaeogene mafic alkaline magmatism. 相似文献

Iron isotopes, together with mineral elemental compositions of spinel peridotite xenoliths and clinopyroxenites from Hannuoba
and Hebi Cenozoic alkaline basalts, were analyzed to investigate iron isotopic features of the lithospheric mantle beneath
the North China Craton. The results show that the Hannuoba spinel peridotite xenoliths have small but distinguishable Fe isotopic
variations. Overall variations in δ57Fe are in a range of −0.25 to 0.14‰ for olivine, −0.17 to 0.17‰ for orthopyroxene, −0.21 to 0.27‰ for clinopyroxene, and −0.16
to 0.26‰ for spinel, respectively. Clinopyroxene has the heaviest iron isotopic ratio and olivine the lightest within individual
sample. No clear linear relationships between the mineral pairs on “δ-δ” plot suggest that iron isotopes of mineral separates

isotopes and metasomatic indexes such as spinel Cr#, (La/Yb)N ratios of clinopyroxenes suggest that iron isotopic variations in different minerals and peridotites were probably produced
by mantle metasomatism. The Hebi phlogopite-bearing lherzolite, which is significantly modified by metasomatic events, appears
to be much heavier isotopically than clinopyroxene-poor lherzolite. This study further confirms previous conclusions that
the lithospheric mantle has distinguishable and heterogeneous iron isotopic variations at the xenoliths scale. Mantle metasomatism
is the most likely cause for the iron isotope variations in mantle peridotites. 相似文献
