High-resolution, stratigraphically ordered samples of the Udo tuff cone and lava shield offshore of Jeju Island, South Korea, show complex geochemical variation in the basaltic magmas that fed the eruption sequence. The eruption began explosively, producing phreatomagmatic deposits with relatively evolved alkali magma. The magma became more primitive over the course of the eruption, but the last magma to be explosively erupted had shifted back to a relatively evolved composition. A separate sub-alkali magma batch was subsequently effusively erupted to form a lava shield. Absence of weathering and only minor reworking between the tuff and overlying lava implies that there was no significant time break between the eruptions of the two magma batches. Modelling of the alkali magma suggests that it was generated from a parent melt in garnet peridotite at c. 3 to 3.5 GPa and underwent mainly clinopyroxene + olivine ± spinel fractionation at c. 1.5 to 2 GPa. The sub-alkali magma was, by contrast, generated from a chemically different peridotite with residual garnet at c. 2.5 GPa and evolved through olivine fractionation at a shallower level compared to its alkali contemporary. The continuous chemostratigraphic trend in the tuff cone, from relatively evolved to primitive and back to evolved, is interpreted to have resulted from a magma batch having risen through a single dyke and erupted the batch’s head, core and margins, respectively. The alkali magma acted as a path-opener for the sub-alkali magma. The occurrence of the two distinct batches suggests that different magmatic systems in the Jeju Island Volcanic Field have interacted throughout its history. The polymagmatic nature of this monogenetic eruption has important implications for hazard forecasting and for our understanding of basaltic field volcanism.  相似文献   

A revision of the age of the hen-dy-capel ooidal ironstone (ordovician), llanengan,N. Wales     

T. P. Young 《Geological Journal》1991,26(4):317-327

Pendent didymograptid graptolites are described from mudstones immediately overlying the Hen-dy-capel ironstone (St. Tudwal's Peninsula, Lly̌n, North Wales). The graptolites indicate a Llanvirn age for these beds, implying a Llanvirn or Arenig age for the ironstone, in contrast with the previous interpretation of a gracilis Biozone age. The redating of the ironstone horizon suggests that the Pen-y-gaer mudstones may be at the base of the local Nant Ffrancon Formation, rather than being equivalent to the lower Caradoc Tyddyn Dicwm beds above the Tremadog ironstone as widely supposed. The ironstones at Trefor, Betws Garmon, and Llandegai, which have been correlated with the Hen-dy-capel ironstone on the basis of acritarch assemblages, may also have a similar age. A reinterpretation of the age of these localities as Llanvirn would remove the stratigraphic problems introduced by their previously suggested early gracilis Biozone age. The Hen-dy-capel ironstone forms one of a large number of ironstones recorded from close to the Arenig-Llanvirn boundary in N. Wales, and elsewhere at high southern palaeolatitudes.  相似文献   

An interpretation of some magnetic data off the west coast of Ireland     

D. G. G. Young  R. J. Bailey 《Geological Journal》1974,9(2):137-146

A total field magnetic anomaly contour map of the continental margin west of Ireland is described by reference to geological structure previously established by seismic reflection profiling. The western Irish Mainland Shelf, Porcupine Seabight Trough and Porcupine Ridge were previously defined as major north-south elements in the structure of the margin. Each is readily distinguished on the magnetic anomaly contour map. To the north these features terminate against, or merge with, the east-west Slyne Ridge. A pronounced change in the magnetic anomaly pattern at about 53°N suggests that the southern limit of this Ridge coincides with a major geological discontinuity extending from near the coast of Ireland to the continental slope, some 320 km to the west. The magnetic anomaly contour map gives general support to the idea that the Slyne Ridge and Porcupine Ridge represent submerged blocks of marginal continental crust, and that the Porcupine Seabight Trough is founded upon crust significantly different in character.  相似文献
