Extreme crustal metamorphism during Columbia supercontinent assembly: Evidence from North China Craton 总被引：21，自引：0，他引：21
A vast supracrustal belt of khondalites (granulite facies metapelites) occur along the northern margin of the North China Craton. We report here for the first time spinel + quartz equilibrium assemblage from these rocks in two textural settings: (1) high ZnO (up to 14.47 wt.%) spinel with quartz as inclusions within garnet porphyroblasts defining pressure above 12 kbar and temperature of 900 °C; and (2) low ZnO (down to 1.2 wt.%) spinel in association with quartz in the matrix assemblage formed during peak ultrahigh-temperature conditions (ca. 975 °C and 9 kbar). We present a unique case of decompression where the metamorphic conditions of the rocks traversed mostly through the spinel + quartz (extended) stability field. Monazite grains in textural association with both types of spinel + quartz textures were analysed for age determination, and the data define two age peaks at 1927 ± 11 Ma and 1819 ± 11 Ma. Since the peak thermal regime of the khondalites was close to or exceeded the theoretical closure temperature of Pb in monazite, we infer the 1819 ± 11 Ma age as the timing of ultrahigh-temperature event in this craton. Our data lend support to the idea of ca. 1.9–1.8 Ga E–W collisional orogen at the northern margin of the North China Craton. We correlate the extreme crustal metamorphism with tectonics associated with the assembly of the North China Craton within the Columbia supercontinent. 相似文献

The Xiong'er volcanic belt, covering an area of more than 60,000 km2 along the southern margin of the North China Craton, has long been considered an intra-continental rift zone and recently interpreted as part of a large igneous province formed by a mantle plume that led to the breakup of the Paleo-Mesoproterozoic supercontinent Columbia. However, such interpretations cannot be accommodated by lithology, mineralogy, geochemistry and geochronology of the volcanic rocks in the belt. Lithologically, the Xiong'er volcanic belt is dominated by basaltic andesite and andesite, with minor dacite and rhyolite, different from rock associations related to continental rifts or mantle plumes, which are generally bimodal and dominated by mafic components. However, they are remarkably similar to those rock associations in modern continental margin arcs. In some of the basaltic andesites and andesites, amphibole is a common phenocryst phase, suggesting the involvement of H2O-rich fluids in the petrogenesis of the Xiong'er volcanic rocks. Geochemically, the Xiong'er volcanic rocks fall in the calc-alkaline series, and in most tectono-magmatic discrimination diagrams, the majority of the Xiong'er volcanic rocks show affinities to magmatic arcs. In the primitive mantle normalized trace-element diagrams, the Xiong'er volcanic rocks show enrichments in the LILE and LREE, and negative Nb–Ta–Ti anomalies, similar to arc-related volcanic rocks produced by the hydrous melting of metasomatized mantle wedge. Nd-isotope compositions of the Xiong'er volcanic rocks suggest that 5–15% older crust has been transferred into the upper lithospheric mantle by subduction-related recycling during Archean to Paleoproterozoic time. Available SHRIMP and LA-ICP-MS U–Pb zircon age data indicate that the Xiong'er volcanic rocks erupted intermittently over a protracted interval from 1.78 Ga, through 1.76–1.75 Ga and 1.65 Ga, to 1.45 Ga, though the major phase of the volcanism occurred at 1.78–1.75 Ga. Such multiple and intermittent volcanism is inconsistent with a mantle plume-driven rifting event, but is not uncommon in ancient and existing continental margin arcs. Taken together, the Xiong'er volcanic belt was most likely a Paleo-Mesoproterozoic continental magmatic arc that formed at the southern margin of the North China Craton. Similar Paleo-Mesoproterozoic continental magmatic arcs were also present at the southern and southeastern margins of Laurentia, the southern margin of Baltica, the northwestern margin of Amonzonia, and the southern and eastern margins of the North Australia Craton, which are considered to represent subduction-related episodic outbuilding on the continental margins of the Paleo-Mesoproterozoic supercontinent Columbia. Therefore, in any configuration of the supercontinent Columbia, the southern margin of the North China Craton could not have been connected to any other continental block as proposed in a recent configuration, but must have faced an open ocean whose lithosphere was subducted beneath the southern margin of the North China Craton. 相似文献

Paleoproterozoic orogenic pulses associated magmatism and metamorphism provide important constraints on the assembly of Columbia. New zircon UPb ages and whole-rock geochemistry results are reported from the Tarim craton, an externally positioned landmass within the Columbia supercontinent. Two samples of low-grade metagranites collected from borehole samples yielded crystallization ages of 1851 ± 9 Ma and 1850.4 ± 9.1 Ma. High-grade metamorphosed granites yielded discordia with upper intercept ages of 1822 ± 52 Ma and 1843 ± 58 Ma, and amphibolitic rocks yielded a concordant age of 1915 ± 30 Ma from the outcrops in southwestern Tarim. Together with previously published data, we propose the following sequence of events in Tarim. Magmatism in the Tarim craton took place during two narrow time intervals. The first phase of magmatism occurred between 1.96 and 1.90 Ga and was followed by a slightly younger magmatic pulse between 1.86 and 1.80 Ga. The latter intrusive phase was followed immediately by ca. 1.8 Ga metamorphism, which is widespread throughout the Tarim craton. We are unable to discriminate any regional age differences between the northern and southern regions of the Tarim Craton. Elemental and zircon Hf isotopes suggest that the magmatic sources were mainly derived from partial melting of the Paleoproterozoic-Neoarchean reworked crust, while variable mantle-derived magma involved in the earliest 1.96–1.90 Ga igneous rocks. The earliest magmatic phase is geodynamically related to subduction setting, whereas the younger phase (1.86–1.80) formed in a continental collisional setting. This process suggests an orogeny at ca. 1.96–1.90 Ga with the amalgamation between the southern and northern terranes, and a collisional orogeny between 1.86 and 1.80 Ga as Tarim becomes a peripheral part of the Columbia supercontinent. The two stages of orogenic activities argue for the amalgamation of the Tarim craton followed by the assembly of Columbia. 相似文献

Late Paleoproterozoic extension and a paleostress field reconstruction of the North China Craton 总被引：6，自引：0，他引：6
Mafic dyke swarms and aulacogens are major anorogenic extensional events in the Late Paleoproterozoic North China Craton (NCC). The N–NNW mafic dyke swarms are widespread in the NCC, whose ages span between 1.83 and 1.77 Ga. The similar ages and orientations of 1.8 Ga dyke swarms in the NCC demonstrate that the amalgamated NCC experienced widespread extension at this time.Based on the width statistics of dyke swarms on ten survey lines, an average crustal extension ratio of 0.35% was found for the NCC. The small magnitude of overall extension suggests that the mafic dyke swarms were emplaced into the elastic fractures, and indicates that the NCC had become a brittle plate prior to the emplacement of the mafic dyke swarms.Precisely dated mafic dyke swarms, when used as paleostress indicators, can be employed in the paleostress field reconstruction of Precambrian cratons. Two dimensional finite element modeling (2-D FEM) of the NCC, in which the various blocks were assigned densities and elastic constants, shows that north–south compression favors dyke intrusion along generally N–NW lines, and that deviations in dyke trends can be explained by the effects of boundary constraints and the physical properties of the crust. The best fitting model can be considered a plausible representation of the tectonic force acting on the NCC that produces the intraplate stress field that is most consistent with the observed orientation of dyke swarms. The results of modeling of the Late Paleoproterozoic stress field suggest a common tectonic setting for the emplacement of mafic dyke swarms in the Central Orogenic Zone, Western and East Blocks of the NCC. The results also show that the north–south tectonic forces play an important role in determining the paleostress field in the NCC. The widespread extension of the NCC resulted from the north–south tectonic forces which may be related to the break-up of the Late Paleoproterozoic supercontinent. The paleostress field modeling provides a possible approach to consider the supercontinent paleostress reconstruction and to reveal the mechanisms of the supercontinent break-up. 相似文献

桐柏造山带古元古代变质基性岩的锆石U-Pb年龄及其地质意义 总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2
桐柏造山带位于秦岭和大别造山带之间,其北侧对应于北秦岭中高级变质杂岩,南侧对应于大别山高压/超高压变质杂岩.锆石U-Pb定年在一个榴辉岩中获得其原岩侵位年龄和锆石重结晶或生长年龄分别为(1961±23) Ma和(1949±51) Ma,在一个石榴角闪岩(退变榴辉岩？)中获得其变质年龄为(1936±26) Ma,表明这两种基性岩石在二叠-三叠纪高压变质之前经历了古元古代变质作用的影响.由桐柏—大别—苏鲁造山带可利用的年代学资料确定,扬子陆块北缘发育的古元古代构造热事件可分为两幕,第一幕发生在约1.97～1.93 Ga,可能与Columbia超大陆的聚合有关;第二幕发生在约1.85～1.82 Ga,或者代表Columbia超大陆汇聚的继续,或者是陆块边缘增生过程的结果. 相似文献

Tectonics and surface effects of the supercontinent Columbia 总被引：10，自引：2，他引：8
Assembly of the supercontinent Columbia at about 1.85–1.90 Ga coincided with several events that affected the entire earth. The oldest worldwide network of orogenic belts formed at the same time. Although some granite–granodiorite (GG) suites had formed earlier, the GG suites became common in the 1.8–1.9 Ga orogenic belts. These suites succeeded the older tonalite–trondhjemite–granodiorite (TTG) suites, which were not produced after 1.8 Ga. Changes on the earth's surface at 1.8–1.9 Ga include rapid increase in the concentration of oxygen in the atmosphere and oceans and probably the evolution of eukaryotes. All of these surface changes occurred as Columbia accreted, and the assembly of Columbia may have contributed to the drastic changes in the earth's surface environment as well as to the evolution of primitive life forms. 相似文献

桂北地区南华系沉积物源分析——来自碎屑锆石U-Pb年龄的证据 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
江南造山带西南部是扬子克拉通新元古代地层发育较完整的地区之一。其中,桂北地区的南华系地层自下而上依次为:长安组、富禄组、大塘坡组和黎家坡组,沉积厚度从几十米到几千米不等,总体趋势是西厚东薄。本文对长安组、富禄组、黎家坡组的5个样品进行了碎屑锆石LA-ICP-MS U-Pb年龄测试。其中长安组碎屑锆石U-Pb年龄存在一个峰值,峰值区间为724~972Ma之间,最年轻的年龄加权平均值为746±5Ma(n=19),指示南华系长安组沉积年龄可能介于746~780Ma之间;富禄组碎屑锆石U-Pb年龄有三个峰值,主峰为705~936Ma,两个次峰分别为1823~2163Ma和2241~2673Ma之间;黎家坡组下部121109-3样品的碎屑锆石主峰值为1966~2118Ma,两个次峰为724~921Ma和2221~2688Ma;中部121109-4样品碎屑锆石主峰值为1813~2192Ma,两个次峰为748~944Ma和2296~2726Ma;上部121109-5样品碎屑锆石主峰值为1984~2193Ma,两个次峰为653~1007Ma和2215~2675Ma。桂北地区南华系长安组、富禄组、黎家坡组5个样品的年龄峰值区间相近,但主峰和次峰有明显的区别,反映了三个组沉积地层主要物源可能来自不同的地区,并经历了不同的沉积环境。碎屑锆石年龄分布特征反映了在653~1007Ma之间扬子克拉通东南缘、江南造山带西南部的桂北地区有强烈的岩浆活动,可能与Rodinia超大陆的聚合和裂解事件有关,而1792~2261Ma的岩浆活动则与Columbia超大陆的聚合和裂解事件相对应,2298~2500Ma碎屑锆石年龄可能暗示在扬子克拉通南缘存在古元古代基底,少量大于2500Ma的锆石年龄表明在扬子克拉通南缘还存在太古宙基底物质。5个样品均缺少1100~1300Ma格林威尔造山时期的记录,说明江南造山带并非处在Rodinia超级大陆的中心。总之,扬子克拉通南缘及江南造山带西南部至少经历了三期强烈的构造-岩浆热事件,这三期事件在桂北地区的南华系沉积地层中均有非常清楚的记录。 相似文献

华北克拉通古元古代末-新元古代地质事件——来自北京西山地区寒武系和侏罗系碎屑锆石LA-ICP-MSU-Pb年代学的证据 总被引：15，自引：10，他引：5
华北克拉通是否同华南克拉通一样保存有与Rodinia超大陆聚合和裂解有关的年龄记录是理解华北克拉通元古宙构造演化的重要科学问题.本文对位于华北克拉通燕辽裂陷槽的北京西山地区的寒武系和侏罗系碎屑岩进行锆石LA-ICP-MS U-Pb年代学研究,目的是通过碎屑锆石年龄揭示华北克拉通前寒武纪尤其是古元古代末-新元古代重要地质事件.定年结果显示,北京西山寒武系徐庄组的钙质细砂岩中碎屑锆石年龄峰值主要集中在～1.38Ga和～1.14Ga.此外,还有～ 1.56Ga、～912Ma、～814Ma、～740Ma、～630Ma和～507Ma的年龄组.侏罗系窑坡组长石质岩屑细砂岩和粉砂质泥岩中碎屑锆石年龄峰值主要集中在～2.5Ga、1.88～1.8Ga、～1.74Ga、～1.6Ga和186Ma.此外,还有～2.77Ga、～2.0Ga、～1.2Ga、～488Ma、～256Ma和～233 Ma的年龄组.这三个岩石具有较低的成分和结构成熟度,指示较近的物源区,其碎屑物质可能大部分来自华北克拉通内部和北缘,因此其碎屑锆石的年龄组可记录华北克拉通前寒武纪重要地质事件.～2.77Ga、～2.5Ga、2.1～ 2.0Ga和1.88～1.8Ga的年龄组分别对应华北克拉通早前寒武纪发生地壳生长、克拉通化、裂谷和造山等重要地质事件;～ 1.74Ga、～ 1.6Ga、～ 1.56Ga、～1.38Ga、～912Ma和～814Ma的年龄组记录了华北克拉通最终克拉通化后开始的古元古代末-新元古代的多期裂谷事件.与1.3～ 1.0Ga、～740Ma和～630Ma的年龄组相对应的岩石在华北克拉通出现甚少,而该时期的岩浆岩和变质岩在华南克拉通广泛发育,且可能与Rodinia超大陆汇聚和裂解的不同阶段相对应.华北克拉通显生宙碎屑岩中碎屑锆石保存的古元古代末-新元古代地质事件的记录对探讨华北克拉通在元古宙的地质演化及华北克拉通与华南克拉通的关系可提供重要的依据. 相似文献

Reliable paleomagnetic poles were calculated for 1.80–1.78 and 1.76–1.75 Ga as a result of the detailed paleomagnetic studies of the Late Paleoproterozoic igneous complexes and the North Ladoga region and Onega structure of the East European craton. According to the new paleomagnetic data, the final assembly of the Superior and Fennoscandia cratons in structure of the Paleoproterozoic Nuna/Columbia supercontinent began at 1.80–1.78 Ga and led to the formation of the Hudsonland megacontinent. Comparison of the coeval poles of 1.76–1.75 Ga of Fennoscandia and Volga–Sarmatia allows reconstruction of the oblique collision among these segments of the East European craton and substantiation of the final assembly at ~1.70 Ga. 相似文献

Geochronology of detrital zircons and their overgrowths combined with whole-rock geochemical and Sm–Nd isotopic data can be used to distinguish different stages of sediment recycling and metamorphism during multiphase orogenic evolution. This approach is applied to the Paleoproterozoic sedimentary rocks of the Tampere and Pirkanmaa belts (southern Finland) in the center of the composite Svecofennian orogen.The lower part of the Tampere belt succession and bulk of the Pirkanmaa belt are characterized by turbidites whereas the upper part of the Tampere belt succession is dominated by 1.90–1.89 Ga mature arc-type volcanic rocks. Detrital zircon geochronology indicates that the Tampere and Pirkanmaa belts have a coeval 1.92–1.89 Ga depositional and tectonic history. Ages of pre-depositional zircon overgrowths vary from 1.91 Ga to 2.0 Ga with clusters at 1.92 Ga and 1.98 Ga. Within the Pirkanmaa belt, post-depositional zircon overgrowths indicate metamorphic culmination at c. 1885 Ma in the Vammala Ni-zone and at c. 1875 Ma in the northern part.The lower conglomerates and graywackes in the Tampere belt and their equivalents in the Pirkanmaa belt are rich both in Neoarchean and Paleoproterozoic grains, the latter ranging in age from 1.9 to 2.1 Ga. Compared to these, a sample from the Vammala Ni-zone has an exotic provenance with at least c. 1.90 Ga, 2.04–2.15 Ga, 2.38–2.48 Ga and 2.57–2.63 Ga components.A sedimentary recycling and tectonic model for the central Fennoscandia is proposed, in which the Paleoproterozoic Keitele + Bergslagen continent was formed during an unnamed orogeny at 1.98–1.97 Ga. The Archean Norrbotten microcontinent was attached to the continent at 1.97–1.93 Ga. Upper Kaleva turbidites, derived from the Lapland-Kola orogen in the north, were deposited before 1.92 Ga on a passive margin of the Archean Karelia craton. The Karelia craton collided with the Keitele + Bergslagen + Norrbotten continent at c. 1.92 Ga forming the Lapland-Savo orogen. Subsequent evolution led to rifting and break-up of the latter continent into two microcontinents in the hinterland. At 1.92–1.91 Ga the rift was developed into a subsiding passive margin of the Keitele microcontinent with voluminous turbidite deposition, now seen as graywackes in the Tampere, Pirkanmaa and Pohjanmaa (western Finland) belts. The turbidite material was derived from the rising Lapland-Savo orogen and included recycled Upper Kaleva, recycled (sandstones) and first-cycle 2.03–1.97 Ga detritus from Keitele, 1.93–1.92 Ga Savo arc material, as well as detritus from the Archean craton and its cover deposits. The collision between Karelia and Keitele caused a subduction reversal and the onset of Tampere arc volcanism at 1.90 Ga. Arc-derived materials started to deposit and were mixed with older sedimentary rocks, and trench-parallel distal turbidites from exotic source were being deposited in the accretionary wedge. 相似文献

The Miyun area of Beijing is located in the northern part of the North China Craton(NCC)and includes a variety of Archean granitoids and metamorphic rocks.Magmatic domains in zircon from a tonalite reveal Early Neoarchean(2752±7 Ma) ages show a small range in ε_(Hf)(t) from 3.1 to 7.4and t_(DM1)(Hf) from 2742 to 2823 Ma,similar to their U-Pb ages,indicating derivation from a depleted mantle source only a short time prior to crystallization.SHRIMP zircon ages of granite,gneiss,amphibolite and hornblendite in the Miyun area reveal restricted emplacement ages from 2594 to2496 Ma.They also record metamorphic events at ca.2.50 Ga,2.44 Ga and 1.82 Ga,showing a similar evolutionary history to the widely distributed Late Neoarchean rocks in the NCC.Positive ε_(Hf)(t) values of 1.5 to 5.9,with model ages younger than 3.0 Ga for magmatic zircon domains from these Late Neoarchean intrusive rocks indicate that they are predominantly derived from juvenile crustal sources and suggest that significant crustal growth occurred in the northern NCC during the Neoarchean.Late Paleoproterozoic metamorphism developed widely in the NCC,not only in the Trans-North China Orogen,but also in areas of Eastern and Western Blocks,which suggest that the late Paleoproterozoic was the assembly of different micro-continents,which resulted in the final consolidation to form the NCC,and related to the development of the Paleo-Mesoproterozoic Columbia or Nuna supercontinent. 相似文献

A Late Archean foreland fold and thrust belt in the North China Craton: Implications for early collisional tectonics 总被引：10，自引：0，他引：10
The Archean North China craton is divided into the Western and Eastern blocks along the Central Orogenic belt. A 1600 km long Archean foreland basin and thrust belt fringes the eastern side of the Central Orogenic belt. Rocks in the orogen form tectonically-stacked east-vergent fold and thrust sheets including foreland basin sediments, 2.50 Ga ophiolitic mélange, and an island arc complex. Foreland basin sediments overlie a passive margin sequence, and include a 2.50 Ga deep-water turbidite sequence that grades upward and westward into shallow-water molasse, now disposed in structurally imbricated east-verging thrusts and asymmetric folds that gradually migrated craton-ward with deformation, uplift, and erosion of the orogen. There is a strong linked relationship of the formation of the foreland basin to collision of the east and west blocks of the North China craton along the Central Orogenic belt at 2.50 Ga. The Qinglong foreland basin and Central Orogenic belt of the North China craton represents one of the best-preserved Archean orogen-to-craton transitions in the world. Its classic internal to external zonation, and flexural response to loading, demonstrate that convergent tectonics in the Archean were broadly similar to Phanerozoic convergent margin processes. 相似文献

Archean basement gneisses and supracrustal rocks, together with Neoproterozoic (Sinian) metasedimentary rocks (the Penglai Group) occur in the Jiaobei Terrane at the southeastern margin of the North China Craton. SHRIMP U–Pb zircon dating of an Archean TTG gneiss gave an age of 2541 ± 5 Ma, whereas metasedimentary rocks from the Neoproterozoic Penglai Group yielded a range in zircon ages from 2.9 to 1.8 Ga. The zircons can be broadly divided into three age populations, at: 2.0–1.8 Ga, 2.45–2.1 Ga and >2.5 Ga. Detrital zircon grains with ages >2.6 Ga are few in number and there are none with ages <1.8 Ga. These results indicate that most of the detrital material comes from a Paleoproterozoic source, most likely from the Jianshan and Fenzishan groups, with some material coming from Archean gneisses in the Jiaobei Terrane. An age of 1866 ± 4 Ma for amphibolite-facies hornblende–plagioclase gneiss, forming part of a supracrustal sequence within the Archean TTG gneiss, indicates Late Paleoproterozoic metamorphism. Both the Archean gneiss complex and Penglai metasedimentary rocks resemble previously described components of the Jiao-Liao-Ji orogenic belt and suggest that the Jiaobei Terrane has a North China Craton affinity; they also suggest that the time of collision along the Jiao-Liao-Ji Belt was at 1865 Ma. 相似文献

华北克拉通古元古代地质记录及其构造意义 总被引：24，自引：0，他引：24
华北克拉通上存在广泛的古元古代地质记录，尤其是构造岩石组合和同位素年龄资料，显示克拉通上可能存在多条古元古代的汇聚拼合带：如鄂尔多斯地块与华北东部-阴山地块之间的拼合造山带、华北东部地块与狼林地块之间的胶辽造山带以及华北克拉通北缘的安第斯型汇聚边界等。华北克拉通中部地区的古元古代锆百年龄数据统计，显示出2．3～24Ga、20～22Ga和18～1．95Ga三组年龄值，暗示华北克拉通古元古代可能存在两个演化阶段：其中古元古代末期（18～1．95Ga）的造山事件已得到了广泛认可，并认为-9全球Columbia超大陆汇聚事件相关；而2.3～2.4Ga、2.00～2.2Ga所代表的构造热事件的性质和意义尚不明确。我国古元古代末期有关陆块汇聚的构造热事件以及其后的裂解事件群和地层学记录，与新的国际前寒武纪地质年代表建议的古-中元古代界线一致，这将促进我国特别是古-中元古代的前寒武纪研究。 相似文献

We report here U–Pb electron microprobe ages from zircon and monazite associated with corundum- and sapphirine-bearing granulite facies rocks of Lachmanapatti, Sengal, Sakkarakkottai and Mettanganam in the Palghat–Cauvery shear zone system and Ganguvarpatti in the northern Madurai Block of southern India. Mineral assemblages and petrologic characteristics of granulite facies assemblages in all these localities indicate extreme crustal metamorphism under ultrahigh-temperature (UHT) conditions. Zircon cores from Lachmanapatti range from 3200 to 2300 Ma with a peak at 2420 Ma, while those from Mettanganam show 2300 Ma peak. Younger zircons with peak ages of 2100 and 830 Ma are displayed by the UHT granulites of Sengal and Ganguvarpatti, although detrital grains with 2000 Ma ages are also present. The Late Archaean-aged cores are mantled by variable rims of Palaeo- to Mesoproterozoic ages in most cases. Zircon cores from Ganguvarpatti range from 2279 to 749 Ma and are interpreted to reflect multiple age sources. The oldest cores are surrounded by Palaeoproterozoic and Mesoproterozoic rims, and finally mantled by Neoproterozoic overgrowths. In contrast, monazites from these localities define peak ages of between 550 and 520 Ma, with an exception of a peak at 590 Ma for the Lachmanapatti rocks. The outermost rims of monazite grains show spot ages in the range of 510–450 Ma.While the zircon populations in these rocks suggest multiple sources of Archaean and Palaeoproterozoic age, the monazite data are interpreted to date the timing of ultrahigh-temperature metamorphism in southern India as latest Neoproterozoic to Cambrian in both the Palghat–Cauvery shear zone system and the northern Madurai Block. The data illustrate the extent of Neoproterozoic/Cambrian metamorphism as India joined the Gondwana amalgam at the dawn of the Cambrian. 相似文献

Single zircon ages from high-grade rocks of the Jianping Complex, Liaoning Province, NE China 总被引：13，自引：0，他引：13
The high-grade rocks of the Jianping Complex in Liaoning Provi nce, NE China, belong to the late Archaean to earliest Proterozoic granulite belt of the North China craton. Single zircon ages obtained by the Pb–Pb evaporation method and SHRIMP analyses document an evolutionary history that began with deposition of a cratonic supracrustal sequence some 2522–2551 Ma ago, followed by intrusion of granitoid rocks beginning at 2522 Ma and reaching a peak at about 2500 Ma. This was followed by high-grade metamorphism, transforming the existing rocks into granulites, charnockites and enderbites some 2485–2490 Ma ago. The intrusion of post-tectonic granites at 2472 Ma is associated with widespread metamorphic retrogression and ends the tectono–metamorphic evolution of this terrain. A similar evolutionary sequence has also been recorded in the granulite belt of Eastern Hebei Province. We speculate that the Jianping Complex was part of an active continental margin in the late Archaean that became involved in continental collision and crustal thickening shortly after its formation. There is a remarkable similarity between the 2500 Ma North China granulite belt and the equally old granulite belt of Southern India, suggesting that the two crustal domains could have been part of the same active plate margin in latest Archaean times. 相似文献

Adakitic intrusive rocks of 430–450 Ma were discovered in the North Qilian orogenic belt, the western section of the Central Orogenic System (COS) in China. These adakitic rocks were lower crust melts rather than slab melts as indicated by their crustal Ce/Pb, Nb/U, Ti/Eu, and Nd/Sm ratios and radiogenically enriched (87Sr/86Sr)i of 0.7053–0.7066 and εNd(t) of − 0.9 to − 1.7. While they are all characterized by low Yb (< 1.1 ppm) and Y (< 11.5 ppm) abundances with high Sr/Y (> 65) and (La/Yb)N (> 13.7) ratios, these adakitic rocks are classified into the low-MgO–Ni–Cr and high-MgO–Ni–Cr groups. The low-MgO samples were derived from partial melting of thickened lower crust, whereas the high-MgO samples were melts from delaminated lower crust, which subsequently interacted with mantle peridotite upon ascent. Adakitic rocks from the adjacent North Qinling orogenic belt also originated from thickened lower crust at 430 Ma. In addition, the North Qilian and North Qinling orogenic belts both consist of lithological assemblages varying from subduction-accretionary complexes at south to central arc assemblages, which include adakitic rocks, then to backarc phases at north. Such a sequence reflects northward subduction of the Qilian and Qinling oceans. In these two orogenic belts, the occurrence of adakitic rocks of common origin and ages together with the similarities in tectonic configurations and lithological assemblages are considered to be the evidence for the continuity between eastern Qilian and western Qinling, forming a > 1000 km Early Paleozoic orogenic belt. In such a tectonic configuration, the Qilian and Qinling oceans that subducted from south possibly represent parts of the large “Proto-Tethyan Ocean”. This inference is supported by the coexistence of Early Paleozoic coral and trilobite specimens from Asia, America and Australia in the North Qilian orogenic belt. Post-400 Ma volcanic rocks occur in the North Qinling orogenic belt but are absent in the North Qilian orogenic belt, indicating that these two orogenic belts underwent distinct evolution history after the closure of the Proto-Tethyan Ocean ( 420 Ma). 相似文献

Late Neoproterozoic extensive rifting in Tarim has been intensely debated regarding an intracontinental or a back-arc environment, which forms a key aspect for elucidating the Precambrian basement architecture and evolution of the Tarim craton. Recently, a deep well called Tarim Geological Survey Well (X1) was drilled from the northwest Tarim basin. Sixty-six samples were collected from the Sugetbrak Formation of the X1 well, including 6 sandstone samples, 29 mudstone samples and 31 basalt samples, for integrated geochemical, geochronological, and Sr–Nd–Hf isotopic analyses. The results indicate that the basalts geochemically show distinct affinity with ocean-island basalts, characterized by enrichments in light rare-earth elements (REEs) and no depletions in Nb and Ta and indicating an intracontinental rifting environment. The presence of 572-Ma zircon in the Sugetbrak basalts reveal the rifting mainly developed in an interval of 541–572 Ma. Geochemical and petrographic data show that the coeval basaltic tuffs or clasts contributed 5–20% to the deposition of the Sugetbrak Formation. The zircon age cluster between 1.8 and 2.0 Ga and abundant Paleoproterozoic detrital zircons with ultrahigh-temperature (UHT) granulate REE signature in the Sugetbrak sandstones indicate a Paleoproterozoic orogenic event occurred in the Tarim craton that could be related to the assembly of the Columbia supercontinent. In contrast, the Neoproterozoic zircons from the Sugetbrak sandstones display positive εHf(t) values, and some have hydrothermal alteration REE signature, indicating Tarim could be a locus for early mantle plume activities that broke the Rodina supercontinent. 相似文献
