Huashan, Guposhan and Qitianling are three similar and representative metaluminous A-type tin granites in the western Nanling Range, China. They all have a high oxidization state with magnetite as the dominant Fe–Ti oxide. This study presents an understanding of systematic mineralogy of Sn-bearing minerals (biotite, titanite, magnetite and cassiterite) in the three granites. Biotite has an annite composition and both electron-microprobe and LA-ICP-MS analyses indicate trace amounts of tin in biotite (approximately 100–20 ppm). Chloritization of biotite is accompanied by formation of Sn-rich rutile and cassiterite. Titanite has a long history of crystallization from the early-magmatic stage through the late-magmatic stage to the hydrothermal stage. Owing to its solid-solution relationship with malayaite (CaSnSiO5), titanite always contains tin to various extents. Early-magmatic titanite contains about 0.5 wt.% SnO2, while the late-magmatic titanite is markedly enriched in tin (on average 14.8 and 3.4 SnO2 in titanite from the Qitianling and Huashan granites, respectively). Magnetite grains typically display a trellis structure with ilmenite lamellae, where microinclusions of cassiterite (<1 μm in size) are present. This is likely consistent with features of the “oxy-exsolution” process of Sn-bearing titanomagnetite precursor. Cassiterite may be observed as late-magmatic phase, but most commonly appears as an alteration product of other primary minerals. All tin-bearing minerals in the three granites record a complete process of tin mineralization in granite. The features of tin in primary biotite, titanite and magnetite reflect an initial enrichment during the early stage of magmatic crystallization of the Huashan, Guposhan and Qitianling granites. Association of interstitial Sn-titanite and cassiterite suggests further tin enrichment related to fractional crystallization of granitic magmas. Fluids and alteration of primary minerals play an important role in the leaching, concentration and transportation of Sn during hydrothermal processes, which favors vein-type Sn mineralization. 相似文献

In this paper, we present U–Pb ages and trace element compositions of titanite from the Ruanjiawan W–Cu–Mo skarn deposit in the Daye district, eastern China to constrain the magmatic and hydrothermal history in this deposit and provide a better understanding of the U–Pb geochronology and trace element geochemistry of titanite that have been subjected to post-crystallization hydrothermal alteration. Titanite from the mineralized skarn, the ore-related quartz diorite stock, and a diabase dike intruding this stock were analyzed using laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICPMS). Titanite grains from the quartz diorite and diabase dike typically coexist with hydrothermal minerals such as epidote, sericite, chlorite, pyrite, and calcite, and display irregular or patchy zoning. These grains have low LREE/HREE and high Th/U and Lu/Hf ratios, coupled with negative Eu and positive Ce anomalies. The textural and compositional data indicate that titanite from the quartz diorite has been overprinted by hydrothermal fluids after being crystallized from magmas. Titanite grains from the mineralized skarn are texturally equilibrated with retrograde skarn minerals including actinolite, quartz, calcite, and epidote, demonstrating that these grains were formed directly from hydrothermal fluids responsible for the mineralization. Compared to the varieties from the quartz diorite stock and diabase dike, titanite grains from the mineralized skarn have much lower REE contents and LREE/HREE, Th/U, and Lu/Hf ratios. They have a weighted mean 206Pb/238U age of 142 ± 2 Ma (MSWD = 0.7, 2σ), in agreement with a zircon U–Pb age of 144 ± 1 Ma (MSWD = 0.3, 2σ) of the quartz diorite and thus interpreted as formation age of the Ruanjiawan W–Cu–Mo deposit. Titanite grains from the ore-related quartz diorite have a concordant U–Pb age of 132 ± 2 Ma (MSWD = 0.5, 2σ), which is 10–12 Ma younger than the zircon U–Pb age of the same sample and thus interpreted as the time of a hydrothermal overprint after their crystallization. This hydrothermal overprint was most likely related to the emplacement of the diabase dike that has a zircon U–Pb age of 133 ± 1 Ma and a titanite U–Pb age of 131 ± 2 Ma. The geochronological results thus reveal two hydrothermal events in the Ruanjiawan deposit: an early one forming the Wu–Cu–Mo ores related to the emplacement of the quartz diorite stock and a later one causing alteration of the quartz diorite and its titanite due to emplacement of diabase dike. It is suggested that titanite is much more susceptible to hydrothermal alteration than zircon. Results from this study also highlight the utilization of trace element compositions in discriminating titanite of magmatic and hydrothermal origins, facilitating a more reasonable interpretation of the titanite U–Pb ages. 相似文献

Primary ore-forming minerals retain geochemical signatures of magmatic crystallization information and can reveal the petrochemical conditions prevalent at the time of their formation. The Baogutu deposit is a typical reduced porphyry Cu deposit. Amphibole and biotite Fe3+/ΣFe ratios, minerals (feldspar, biotite, amphibole, zircon and apatite), in situ elemental and apatite Nd isotopic compositions were determined by Mössbauer spectroscopy, electron probe microanalysis, and laser ablation multiple-collection inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, respectively, to investigate the magma oxidation state, petrogenesis, source features, and to constrain the carbon species at magmatic stages for the intrusive phases. The results show that the primary plagioclase and amphibole in the mineralized diorite to granodiorite porphyry and post ore hornblende diorite porphyry are distinct (An26-55 versus An60-69; Mg-hornblende versus tschermakite). In particular, the amphibole shows distinct major and trace element compositions with light rare earth element enrichments and negative Eu anomalies in Mg-hornblende and light rare earth element depletions and no Eu anomalies in tschermakite. All the analyzed biotites are primary igneous phases with a biotite phenocryst profile showing significant variations of Zn, Cr, Sc and Sr from core to rim. These results may indicate the occurrence of mixing between two distinct magmas during mineral formation. Titanium in zircon and Si1 in amphibole thermometries indicate that magma crystallized at >900 °C and continued to ∼650 °C. In situ apatite Nd isotope (εNd(t) = 5.6–7.6, TDM2 = 620–460 Ma), indicate absence of significant reduced sedimentary contamination and the source of juvenile lower crust. Slightly decreasing Fe3+/ΣFe ratios from biotite and amphibole to whole rock indicate decreasing oxygen fugacity during magma crystallization. Recalculated biotite compositions according to Fe3+/ΣFe ratios indicate fO2 values of less than Ni-NiO buffer (NNO) which show slightly lower values than that estimated according to zircon/melt distribution coefficients Ce anomalies (∼ΔNNO + 0.6). These values are consistent with the features of reduced porphyry Cu deposits. Crystallization of other mineral phases significantly affects the reliability of oxybarometer of zircon/melt distribution coefficients Eu anomalies and Mn contents in apatite. This oxidation state suggests that only CO2 was present at the magmatic stage, and implies that CH4 formed during CO2 reduction occurring later hydrothermal alteration. The alteration of primary amphibole to actinolite released Ti, Al, Fe, Mn, Na and K to the fluid with later precipitation of titanite, albite and minor ilmenite and magnetite during actinolite alteration. 相似文献

Compositional variation (results of electron microprobe analyses and mass-spectrometry analyses) of columbite-group minerals (CGM) from fully differentiated albite–spodumene pegmatites at Kolmozero in the Kola Peninsula is evaluated. Concentric zoning, typical of rare-metal pegmatites, was not observed in the Kolmozero pegmatites. Columbite-group minerals occur in all main parageneses of the pegmatites and form four generations, reflecting the sequence of pegmatite formation. These minerals demonstrate wide variations in the content of major and trace elements. The composition of CGM ranges from columbite-(Fe) to tantalite-(Mn). Fractionation trends were observed in Mn/(Mn + Fe) versus Ta/(Ta + Nb) diagrams and trace-element abundances plotted versus XTa and XMn. The early CGM paragenesis is characterized by homogeneous, oscillatory and progressive oscillatory zoning and corresponds to a primary magmatic type. Late-generation CGM show patchy irregular internal textures replacing earlier regular patterns of zoning. The irregular zoning points to metasomatic replacement processes. For the first time, it is shown that distributions of rare earth elements (REE) in CGM reflect the evolution of a pegmatite-forming system. At Kolmozero, the main trend of REE variation from early to late generations of CGM involves decreasing total REE contents due to a decrease in heavy REE and Y, decreasing negative Eu anomaly and decreasing magnitude of M-shape tetrad effect between Gd and Ho. These changes are accompanied by gradual flattening of the “bird-like” patterns of chondrite-normalized REE distribution. All these features are typical for late differentiates of granitic volatile-rich magma. Late metasomatic tantalite-(Mn) is characterized by sharp changes in its REE distribution pattern: decreasing total REE contents, changing shape of the REE distribution pattern, the absence of Eu anomaly and tetrad effects, and the appearance of a negative Ce anomaly. The textural characteristics and mineral chemistry of CGM indicate that the pegmatite-forming system underwent several stages of evolution. The earliest magmatic stage can be divided into two sub-stages, involving direct crystallization and collective recrystallization, respectively, and was succeeded by a late hydrothermal–metasomatic post-magmatic stage. Variations in chemical composition among the different generations of CGM are explained by the interplay of several processes: fractional crystallization; competitive crystallization of main rock-forming (feldspar, muscovite, spodumene) and accessory (triphylyte–lithiophilite, spessartine, fluorapatite, zircon, microlite) minerals; and evolution of the mineral-forming environment from a melt to a hydrothermal–metasomatic fluid. 相似文献

The authors have studied the geology, geochemistry, petrology and mineralogy of the rare earth elements (REE) occurring in the Western Keivy peralkaline granite massif (Kola Peninsula, NW Russia) aged 2674 ± 6 Ma. The massif hosts Zr- and REE-rich areas with economic potential (e.g. the Yumperuaiv and Large Pedestal Zr-REE deposits), where 25% of ΣREE are represented by heavy REE (HREE). The main REE minerals are: chevkinite-(Ce), britholite-(Y) and products of their metamict decay, bastnäsite-(Ce), allanite-(Ce), fergusonite-(Y), monazite-(Ce), and others. The areas contain also significant quantities of zircon reaching potentially economic levels. We have discovered that behavior of REE and Zr is controlled by alkalinity of melt/solution, which, in turn, is controlled by crystallization of alkaline pyroxenes (predominantly aegirine) and amphiboles (predominantly arfvedsonite) at a late magmatic stage. Crystallization of mafic minerals leads to a sharp increase of K2O content and decrease of SiO2 content that cause a decrease of melt viscosity and REE and Zr solubility in the liquid. Therefore, REE and zirconium immediately precipitate as zircon and REE-minerals. There are numerous pod- and lens-like granitic pegmatites within the massif. Pegmatites in the REE-rich areas are also enriched in REE, but HREE prevails over light REE (LREE), about 88% of REE sum. 相似文献

The Beiya gold–polymetallic deposit, located in the middle of the Jinshajiang–Ailaoshan alkaline porphyry metallogenic belt, is one of the largest gold deposits in China. The mineralization mainly occurs in skarn along the intrusive contacts between the alkaline porphyries and Middle Triassic limestone. In this paper, we present U–Pb age as well as major and trace element geochemistry of titanite from the Beiya deposit, and distinguish the titanite into a magmatic- and a hydrothermal suite. Our study indicates that the titanite from the ore-related porphyry and from the mineralized skarn is texturally and geochemically very different. The euhedral, envelope-shaped titanite from the ore-related porphyry has lower FeO, F, HFSEs, Nb/Ta and Lu/Hf, together with higher TiO2 and Th/U than the subhedral titanite from the mineralized skarn. The titanite from the porphyry also displays higher LREE/HREE and more subtle negative Eu anomaly than its mineralized skarn counterpart. This suggests a magmatic- and a hydrothermal origin for, respectively, the titanite from the ore-related porphyry and from the mineralized skarn. In-situ magmatic titanite U–Pb dating has yielded an Eocene age of 36.0 ± 5.9 Ma, consistent with the porphyry zircon U–Pb age (36.07 ± 0.43 Ma) obtained in previous studies. Hydrothermal titanite has yielded a weighted average 206Pb/238U age of 33.1 ± 1.0 Ma (MSWD = 2.0), which represents the age of the retrograde skarn alteration and the maximum age for the gold mineralization. Together with the previous molybdenite Re–Os age, we have further constrained the Beiya gold–polymetallic metallogeny to 33.1–34.1 Ma. The mineralization age is slightly younger than the porphyry emplacement, indicating that the Beiya metallogeny was likely to be a post-magmatic hydrothermal product of the Himalayan orogenic event. The REE characteristics of hydrothermal titanite also reveal that the ore forming fluids may have been derived from a highly oxidized magma. 相似文献

The sources and formation conditions of unconventional Zr–Nb–REE mineralisation (REE = rare earth elements) presently found in increasing number worldwide are still poorly constrained. One particular problem is the specific role of magmatic and hydrothermal processes active in various geological settings. Investigation of Zr–Nb–REE mineralisation at Khalzan Buregte and Tsakhir, Western Mongolia, enables to evaluate magmatic processes preceding economic mineralisation and, in a second step, to compare similar ore-forming processes developing in host rocks of contrasting rock composition (low- vs. high-silica rocks). The genesis of the Zr–Nb–REE mineralisation is re-assessed using field observations, whole rock analysis (chemical composition, quantitative modal analysis by X-ray diffraction) and by the application of various transmitted light and electron microscopic techniques. Coarse-grained intrusive bodies, dikes and volcanic rocks of alkaline, silica-saturated composition were found to be contemporarily emplaced at subvolcanic to volcanic levels forming four alkaline massifs within the Khalzan Buregte area. The whole rock composition of weakly altered magmatic rocks ranges from syenite to quartz monzonite and alkaline granite (alkali feldspar syenite to alkali feldspar granite according to their modal composition). Magmatic and at least two subsequent hydrothermal processes contributed significantly to the formation of economic concentrations of high field strength elements (HFSE) such as Zr, Hf, Nb, Ta, REE and Y in the Khalzan Buregte deposit and in the nearby Tsakhir prospect. Mixing of magma from at least three sources and the formation of potassium feldspar cumulates resulted in local enrichment of Zr, Nb and light rare earth elements (LREE) in the rocks up to sub-economic levels. There was no significant increase in Y and heavy rare earth elements (HREE) during magmatism.Multistage metasomatic alteration resulted in a pronounced chemical and mineralogical heterogeneity of associated alteration assemblages. The main hosts of Zr and Hf in the ores are zircon and other zirconium silicates (gittinsite, catapleiite-(Ca) and elpidite). The rare metals Nb and Ta are mainly contained in various types of pyrochlore (Khalzan Buregte) and, to a lesser extent, in fergusonite and other minerals (Tsakhir). A large variety of REE- and Y-bearing minerals have been identified, including oxides, fluorocarbonates and silicates. Early hydrothermal alteration by silica- and carbonate-rich fluids yielded extreme concentrations of Zr, Nb and LREE. Later alteration resulted in enrichment of Y and HREE. In the latter case, fluids were very rich in fluorine. Our preliminary genetic model assumes a carbonatite-related fluid system responsible for the early alteration that occurred late during or postdating the intrusion/extrusion of the silica-saturated magmas. A “Li-F granite-type” fluid system was active during the late alteration. The interplay of all these processes resulted in the formation of a complex, economic Zr–Nb–REE mineralisation at Khalzan Buregte. 相似文献

The Vergenoeg fluorite deposit in the Bushveld Complex in South Africa is hosted by a volcanic pipe-like body. The distribution characteristics, composition and formation conditions of high-field-strength element (HFSE)-rich minerals in different lithological units of the deposit were investigated by optical and cathodoluminescence microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray fluorescence, inductively-coupled plasma mass-spectrometry and electron-probe microanalysis. The Vergenoeg host rocks comprise a diverse silica-undersaturated assemblage of fayalite–magnetite–fluorite with variably subordinate apatite and mineral phases enriched in rare-earth elements (REEs). The Sm–Nd isotope systematics of the fluorite from the various lithological units of the pipe support the model that the HFSE budget of the Vergenoeg pipe was likely derived from a Lebowa-type granitic magma. Isotopically, there is no evidence for other REE sources. Formation of the pipe, including development of the fluorite mineralization, occurred within the same time frame as the emplacement of other magmatic rock units of the Bushveld Complex (Sm–Nd isochron age for fluorite separates: 2040 ± 46 Ma). Hydrothermal alteration is manifested in strongly disturbed Rb–Sr isotope systematics of the Vergenoeg deposit, but did not affect its HFSE and REE budget. Whole-rock chondrite-normalized REE + Y distribution patterns of two types were observed: (i) flat patterns characteristic of magnetite–fluorite unit, gossan, metallurgical-grade fluorite (“metspar”) plugs and siderite lenses, and (ii) U-shaped patterns showing enrichment towards the heaviest REE (Tm–Lu) observed in the fayalite-rich units. Common HFSE minerals are complex Nb-rich oxides (samarskite, fergusonite), REE phosphates and fluorocarbonates. Additionally, fluocerite and REE silicates, whose identification requires further work, were found. Most of the HFSE-rich minerals are spatially associated with Fe-rich phases (e.g., pyrite, magnetite, greenalite and hematite). To a smaller extent, they are found finely disseminated or healing micro-fractures in fluorite. The whole-rock REE + Y distribution patterns of the individual lithological units are mainly controlled by the distribution of Yb-rich and Y-rich xenotime in these rocks. The common occurrence of bastnäsite-(Ce) in the gossan, “metspar” plugs and especially in the rhyolitic carapace at the pipe–wall-rock contact, controls the REE + Y distribution patterns of these rocks. HFSE minerals in the Vergenoeg pipe rocks have formed in several stages. Samarskite and coarse fluorapatite belong to the primary mineral assemblage. Fergusonite and Yb-rich xenotime formed during high- to moderate-temperature hydrothermal activity. Significant remobilization of the HFSE from the early-crystallized minerals (breakdown of fluorapatite and possibly allanite with release of REE + Y) and subsequent partial redistribution of these elements into near surface rocks are inferred. The late-stage assemblages are characterized by the presence of fine-grained REE fluorocarbonates, monazite-(Ce), monazite-(La) and xenotime-(Y). 相似文献

The Sanjiang Tethyan domain in SE Asia is one of the most important mineral belts in China. Cu, Pb–Zn, Ag, Au and Sn are the most important resources in this domain, while the tungsten mineralization is poorly reported. In this study, we report on mineralogy in recent discovered Damajianshan (DMJS) tungsten (–Cu–As–Mo–Bi) polymetallic deposit in the southern part of Sanjiang Tethyan domain related to Triassic quartz porphyry. Studies have shown that besides common ore minerals, such as native bismuth, bismuthinite, ikunolite, some specific minerals of Pb–Bi- and Pb–Sb-sulphosalts (e.g. izoklakeite, bournonite, cosalite, and boulangerite) have also been found. Based on paragenetic mineral assemblages, fluid inclusions, and thermodynamic studies, the physicochemical conditions were evaluated for the entire metallogenic process. The sulfur fugacity (logfS2) ranges from − 9.7 to − 37 with ore-forming temperatures between 190 °C and 330 °C, and the oxygen fugacity (logfO2) ranges from − 37.5 to − 38.5 when the temperature is 250 °C. The sulfur fugacity and oxygen fugacity show strong fluctuations with broadly negative correlation, indicating that these variations in physicochemical conditions should be responsible for mineral assemblages, and are one of the most significant factors leading to the formation of the DMJS deposit. Our mineralogical studies provide new information for tungsten mineralization and further exploration of tungsten resources in the Sanjiang Tethyan mineralization domain. 相似文献

The Sangan iron skarn deposit is located on the eastern edge of the Sabzevar-Doruneh Magmatic Belt, northeastern Iran. Mineralization occurs at the contact between Eocene igneous rocks and Cretaceous carbonates. The silicate-dominant prograde skarn stage consists of garnet and clinopyroxene, whereas the retrograde stage is dominated by magnetite associated with minor hematite, phlogopite, pyrite, and chalcopyrite. Phase equilibria and mineral chemistry studies reveal that the skarn formed within a temperature range of ∼375° to 580 °C and that the mineralizing fluid evolved from a hot, low oxygen fugacity, alkaline fluid during the silicate-dominant stage to a fluid of relatively lower temperature and higher oxygen fugacity at the magnetite-dominant stage. The δ18O values of magnetite and garnet vary from +3.1 to +7.5‰ and +7.7 to +11.6‰, respectively. The calculated δ18OH2O values of fluid in equilibrium with magnetite and garnet range from +9.8 to +11.1‰ and +10.1 to +14.8‰, respectively. These elevated δ18OH2O values suggest interaction of magmatic water with 18O-enriched carbonates. The high δ34S values (+10.6 to +17.0‰) of pyrite separates from the Sangan iron ore indicate that evaporites had an important role in the evolution of the hydrothermal fluid. Phlogopite separates from the massive ores yield 40Ar/39Ar plateau ages of 41.97 ± 0.2 and 42.47 ± 0.2 Ma, indicating that the skarn formation and associated iron mineralization was related to the oldest episode of magmatism in Sangan at ∼42 Ma. Eocene time marked a peak of magmatic activity and associated skarn in the post-collisional setting in northeastern Iran, whereas Oligo-Miocene magmatic activity and associated skarn in the Urumieh-Dokhtar Magmatic Belt are related to subduction. In addition, skarn mineralization in northeastern and eastern Iran is iron type, but skarn mineralization in the Urumieh-Dokhtar magmatic belt is copper – iron and copper type. 相似文献

The Huanglongpu carbonatite-related Mo ore field is located in the Lesser Qinling Orogenic belt in the southern margin of the North China block. The ore field is composed of six deposits, Yuantou, Wengongling, Dashigou, Shijiawan, Taoyuan and Erdaohe, all of which are genetically related to carbonatite dykes except for the Shijiawan deposit which is associated with a granitic porphyry. The Yuantou carbonatite dykes intruded into Archean gneiss and other carbonatites emplaced into Mesoproterozoic volcanic and sediment rocks. The carbonatites are mainly composed of calcite and variable amounts of quartz and K-feldspar and minor molybdenite. Re–Os dating of molybdenite from the Yuantou carbonatite yields a weighted average age of 225.0 ± 7.6 Ma, consistent with the molybdenite age (221 Ma) from the Dashigou deposit. The rocks are characterized by high heavy REE (HREE) contents and consistent flat REE distribution patterns with La/Ybcn ~ 1. Quartz in the carbonatites from Yuantou and Dashigou deposits shows consistent O isotopes (8.1–10.2‰) similar to the associated calcite (7.2–9.5‰). The quartz and associated K-feldspar contain lower Zr, Hf and higher HREE abundances and negligible Eu anomaly relative to those from the granite porphyry in Shijiawan. Both minerals are primary products in the carbonatitic liquid, and not captured from the wall-rocks or crustal-derived silicate magmas, or a hydrothermal origin. Thus, the Huanglongpu carbonatitic liquids were enriched in Si and Mo, which may be produced by intensely fractional crystallization of non-silicate minerals. 相似文献

This paper presents the results of a detailed mineralogical and micro analytical study of two Ural-Alaskan type intrusions in the Ural Platinum Belt: (1) the dunite-hosted mineralization of the Svetly Bor intrusion, and (2) the chromitite mineralization of the Nizhny Tagil intrusion. Two generations of platinum minerals are typical of both intrusions: magmatic Pt–Fe(Ni) alloys, and post-magmatic Pt(Fe,Ni,Cu) alloys. A trend from ferroan platinum to isoferroplatinum (Pt,Fe → Pt3Fe) is shown for magmatic alloys of the Svetly Bor intrusion. Magmatic alloys of the Nizhny Tagil intrusion are represented by ferroan platinum (with Ni) only, varying in Fe. The magmatic Pt–Fe alloys of both intrusions were depleted in Fe during the evolution of ore-forming systems and crystallized during the entire magmatic process, generally as fine cubic crystals and anhedral grains hosted by dunite at the magmatic stage during and after the crystallization of dunite (platinum–dunite type of the Svetly Bor intrusion). The evolution of mineral paragenesis was accompanied by a temperature drop, as well as increases in fO2 and fS2.Most of the platinum was concentrated in the residual melts together with chromium, and crystallized in the final stage of the magmatic process (platinum–chromite ore of the Nizhny Tagil intrusion). Post-magmatic Pt(Fe,Cu,Ni) alloys formed during the serpentinization of dunite evolved according to a general compositional trend from tetraferroplatinum and ferronickelplatinum to tulameenite and later to Pt–Cu alloy and Pt-oxide (PtFe) → Pt(Fe,Cu,Ni) → Cu3Pt → Pt–O. Platinum-rich mineralization of both intrusions was formed in the late magmatic stage from a melt rich in volatiles, regardless of their location in dunite or chromitites. Most probably, the rock structure (fracture systems) was the determining factor in the migration of PGE-rich residual melts and ore accumulation. 相似文献

The Hercynian late-orogenic granites from the Gerês massif, northern Portugal, underwent intense hydrothermal activity along tectonic structures striking N-S and NE-SW. The first hydrothermal stage is characterized by the albitization of feldspars (primary K-feldspar and plagioclase) followed by the dissolution of magmatic quartz, the chloritization of biotite, and the muscovitization of magmatic biotite and feldspars and occasionally of authigenic albite. Whole-rock geochemistry shows a decrease of SiO2, K2O and Rb and an increase of Na2O, Al2O3 and Sr amounts during the albitization. The second hydrothermal stage is characterized by a mineral assemblage consisting of secondary quartz, albite, chlorite, hematite, apatite, muscovite, epidote, sphene and carbonates, which infilled the cavities produced by the early quartz leaching.Mass balance calculations demonstrate a noticeable element mobilization during the granite alteration. The average ∑REE of the Gerês granite is nearly constant at 154 ppm, but ranges from 91 to 163 ppm in the altered rocks. A relative LREE depletion and a slight HREE enrichment associated with a negative Eu anomaly characterize the feldspathization process of Gerês granite. The average ∑REE of the Carris granite is at 159 ppm but in the altered epidote + chlorite + hematite assemblage it reaches about 201 ppm with a slight HREE increase.Two different fluids were involved in the hydrothermal alteration. A first aqueous fluid (Lw1), with a low to intermediate salinity (<10 wt.% eq. NaCl) circulated along the main structures (N-S, NE-SW and NW-SE), characterized by entrapment temperature lower than 350 °C and maximum pressure of 115 MPa followed by a later colder and more saline fluid (Lw2) under a temperature of 220 °C and a pressure of about 27 MPa.Oxygen isotope data obtained on magmatic quartz indicate δ18Oquartz of + 9.3 and + 11.0‰, pointing to an interaction of magmatic fluids with others of meteoric origin. For the secondary quartz, δ18Owater of +0.5 and +0.7‰ were calculated for a temperature of 250 °C, suggesting a meteoric fluid with a possible seawater signature.The K-Ar data of K-feldspar from the altered rocks confirm an age of 273.6 ± 11.7 Ma, attributed to the first alteration process. Younger K-Ar ages between 155.8 ± 6.7 Ma and 124 ± 5.3 Ma were also obtained in the feldspathized rocks, confirming the late hydrothermal activity.Albitization and quartz dissolution of granitic rocks from the Gerês massif occurred at depths shallower than 5 km, induced by the circulation of fluids along brittle structures, during the orogenic uplift and extensional tectonics which affected the Iberian Massif in the Early Permian. A second major event is attributed to late hydrothermal circulations of aqueous brines until a depth of about 3 km, presumably derived from interaction with sub-surface evaporites throughout Late Jurassic to Early Cretaceous. These late hydrothermal events probably reflect the rifting episodes and the rising of geothermal gradient, associated with the opening of the Atlantic Ocean and Gulf of Biscay, respectively. 相似文献

The Central Eastern Desert (CED) of Egypt, a part of Neoproterozoic Arabian Nubian Shield (ANS), embraces a multiplicity of rare metal bearing granitoids. Gabal El-Ineigi represents one of these granitic plutons and is a good example of the fluorite-bearing rare metal granites in the ANS. It is a composite pluton consisting of a porphyritic syenogranite (SG; normal granite) and coarse- to medium-grained highly evolved alkali-feldspar granite (AFG; fluorite and rare metal bearing granite) intruded into older granodiorite and metagabbro-diorite rocks. The rock-forming minerals are quartz, K-feldspar (Or94-99), plagioclase (An0-6) and biotite (protolithonite-siderophyllite) in both granitic types, with subordinate muscovite (Li-phengite) and fluorite in the AFG. Columbite-(Fe), fergusonite-(Y), rutile, zircon and thorite are the main accessory phases in the AFG while allanite-(Ce) and epidote are exclusively encountered in the SG. Texture and chemistry of minerals, especially fluorite, columbite and fergusonite, support their magmatic origin. Both granitic types are metaluminous to weakly peraluminous (A/CNK = 0.95–1.01) and belong to the post-collisional A2-type granites, indicating melting of underplated mafic lower crust. The late phase AFG has distinctive geochemical features typical of rare metal bearing granites; it is highly fractionated calc-alkaline characterized by high Rb, Nb, Y, U and many other HFSE and HREE contents, and by extremely low Sr and Ba. Moreover, the REE patterns show pronounced negative Eu anomalies (Eu/Eu1 = 0.03 and 0.06) and tetrad effect (TE1,3 = 1.13 and 1.27), implying extensive open system fractionation via fluid–rock interactions that characterize the late magmatic stage differentiation. The SG is remarkably enriched in Sr, Ba and invariably shows a relative enrichment in light rare-earth elements (LREEs). The SG rocks (569 ± 15 Ma) are characterized by relatively low initial 87Sr/86Sr ratios (0.7034–0.7035) that suggest their derivation from the mantle, with little contamination from the older continental crust. By contrast, the AFG has very high 87Rb/86Sr and 87Sr/86Sr ratios that reflect the disturbance of the Rb-Sr isotopic system and may give an indication for the high temperature magma-fluid interaction. The positive εNd(t) values of AFG (+7.40) and SG (+5.17), corresponding to young Nd-TDM2 ages ranging from 707 to 893 Ma, clearly reflect the juvenile crustal nature of Gabal El-Ineigi granitoids and preclude the occurrence of pre-Neoproterozoic continental crust in the ANS. The field relationships, chemical, petrological and isotopic characteristics of El-Ineigi SG and AFG prove that they are genetically not associated to each other and indicate a complex origin involving two compositionally distinct parental magmas that were both modified during magmatic fractionation processes. We argue that the SG was formed by partial melting of a mid-crustal source with subsequent fractional crystallization. In contrast, the AFG was generated by partial melting and fractionation of Nb- and Ta-rich amphibole (or biotite) of the lower crust. The appreciable amounts of fluorine in the magma appears to be responsible for the formation of rare metal element complexes (e.g., Nb, Ta, Sn and REEs), and could account for the rare metal mineralization in the El-Ineigi AFG. 相似文献

Mineralization with ion adsorption rare earth elements (REEs) in the weathering profile of granitoid rocks from Nanling region of Southeast China is an important REE resource, especially for heavy REE (HREE) and Y. However, the Jurassic granites in Zhaibei which host the ion adsorption light REE (LREE) ores are rare. It is of peraluminous and high K calc-alkaline composition, which has similar geochemical features of high K2O + Na2O and Zr + Nb + Ce + Y contents and Ga/Al ratio to A-type granite. Based on the chemical discrimination criteria of Eby [Geology 20 (1992) 641], the Zhaibei granite belongs to A1-type and has similar source to ocean island basalts. The rock is enriched in LREE and contains abundant REE minerals including LREE-phosphates and halides. Minor LREE was also determined in the feldspar and biotite, which shows negligible and negative Eu anomalies, respectively. This indicates that the Zhaibei granite was generated by extreme differentiation of basaltic parent magmas. In contrast, granites associated with ion adsorption HREE ores contain amounts of HREE minerals, and show similar geochemical characteristics with fractionated felsic granites. Note that most Jurassic granitoids in the Nanling region contain no REE minerals and cannot produce REE mineralization. They belong to unfractionated M-, I- and S-type granites. Therefore, accumulation of REE in the weathering profile is controlled by primary REE mineral compositions in the granitoids. Intense fractional crystallization plays a role on REE enrichment in the Nanling granitoid rocks. 相似文献

The Songshugang granite, hidden in the Sinian metasedimentary stratum, is a highly evolved rare-element granite in northeastern Jiangxi province, South China. The samples were systematically taken from the CK-102 drill hole at the depth of 171–423 m. Four types of rocks were divided from the bottom upwards: topaz albite granite as the main body, greisen nodules, topaz K-feldspar granite and pegmatite layer. Electron-microprobe study reveals that the rare-element minerals of the Songshugang granite are very different from those of other rare-element granites. Mn# [Mn/(Fe + Mn)] and Ta# [Ta/(Nb + Ta)] of columbite-group minerals and Hf# [Hf/(Zr + Hf)] of zircon are nearly constant within each type of rocks. However, back-scattered electron imaging revealed that Nb–Ta oxides and zircon of the Songshugang granite, especially those of topaz albite granite, topaz K-feldspar granite and greisen, are commonly characterized by a specific two-stage texture on the crystal scale. The early-stage Nb–Ta oxide is simply subhedral-shaped columbite-(Fe) (CGM-I) with low Mn# (0.16–0.37) and Ta# (0.05–0.29). Columbite-(Fe) is penetrated by the later-stage tantalite veinlets (CGM-II) or surrounded by complex Nb–Ta–Sn–W mineral assemblages, including tantalite-(Fe), wodginite (sl), cassiterite, and ferberite. Tantalite has wide range of Mn# values (0.15–0.88) from Fe-dominance to Mn-dominance. Wodginite with Ta>Nb has large variable concentrations of W, Sn and Ti. Cassiterite and ferberite are all enriched in Nb and Ta (Nb2O5 + Ta2O5 up to 20.12 wt.% and 31.42 wt.%, respectively), with high Ta# (>0.5). Similar to Nb–Ta oxides and Nb–Ta–Sn–W mineral assemblages, the early-stage zircon is commonly included by the later-stage zircon with sharply boundary. They have contrasting Hf contents, and HfO2 of the later-stage zircon is up to 28.13 wt.%. Petrographic features indicate that the early-stage of columbite and zircon were formed in magmatic environment. However, the later-stage of rare-element minerals were influenced by fluxes-enriched fluids. Tantalite, together with wodginite, cassiterite, and ferberite implies a Ta-dominant media. An interstitial fluid-rich melt enriched in Ta and flux at the magmatic–hydrothermal transitional stage is currently a favored model for explaining the later-stage of rare-element mineralization. 相似文献

The Ediacaran BISF at Hormuz Island is a newly identified glaciogenic iron-salt deposit in the Tethyan margin of Gondwana. The BISF was formed by synchronous riftogenic A-type submarine felsic volcanism and evaporate deposition. The mineralization occurs in a proximal felsic tuff cone and jaspilitic distal zones and contains 1 million tonne of hematite-rich ore with an average grade of 58% Fe. The ore structure shows cyclicity of macrobandings, mesobandings and microbandings of anhydrite, halite, hematite and chert, which marks a new record in BIFs geohistory. The alteration minerals in the proximal and distal zones are actinolite, ripidolite, epidote, sericite, tourmaline, clinochlore, anhydrite and clay minerals. The occurrence of metamorphosed polygenetic bullet-shape dropstones in BISF attests that there was probably a continuous process of ice melting, episodic submarine volcanism and exhalative hydrothermal banded iron salt formation during the Late Ediacaran time. The non-metamorphosed Neoproterozoic stratigraphy, the presence of genus Collenia, U-Pb dating (558 ± 7 Ma) and the marked negative δ13C excursion in cap carbonates are representative of Late Ediacaran glaciation, which has been identified worldwide. The REE+Y display light REE enrichment, unusually strong Tb-Tm anomaly, a weak positive Y anomaly, but no distinguished Eu and Ce anomalies, reflecting the glaciogenic nature of the BISF. The contents of Zr, Hf, Nb, Ta, Th, La, Ce and Y in BISF, dropstones, halite and cap carbonates are similar to those of the Neoproterozoic glaciogenic BIFs. Also, the Ni/Fe, P/Fe ratios and Fe/Ti – Al/Al + Fe + Mn + Ca + Na + K diagram suggest an exhalative hydrothermal Ediacaran-type BISF. The absence of brecciated magnetite in the ore association and the low contents of copper (9–493 ppm) and gold (<5–8 ppb) are not in favor of the IOCG – Kiruna-type iron oxide ores. The co-paragenesis of hematite with several alteration minerals, in particular actinolite, tourmaline and anhydrite, indicates that the exhalative hydrothermal fluids were generated by the interaction of seawater with the felsic rocks and sediments at about 200–500 °C. The interaction of seawater with felsic magma and sediments led to the formation of Mg-rich alteration minerals, leaching Si, Fe, Mn and other elements and forming the potential ore fluids. It is highlighted that the A-type alkaline submarine felsic volcanism could be considered as an exploration target for BISF. 相似文献
