Transitional basalts from the eastern Australian tertiary province     

D. C. Green 《Bulletin of Volcanology》1969,33(3):930-941

Study of Tertiary volcanic rocks from Mt. Tamborine in S. E. Queensland, Australia, suggests that some basalts from the large Tweed vent are intermediate in character between true tholeiites and well documented alkaline basalts of the Australian Tertiary province. Geochemical evidence and comparison with synthetic systems suggests that the transitional lavas are derived by continuous fractional crystallization during the ascent of a parent magma produced by substantial partial melting of the upper mantle at moderate depths and pressures. Alkaline basalts that underlie the transitional basalts are the result of relatively rapid, intermittent extrusion of magma generated by a smaller degree of partial melting of the upper mantle. This interpretation resolves the difficulties posed by an apparent inversion of the usual stratigraphic relationship of tholeiites capped by alkali basalts, and is in accord with recent seismic studies of the continental margin of eastern Australia.  相似文献

Tracy N. Tingle  Harry W. Green Jr.  Thomas E. Young  Ted A. Koczynski 《Pure and Applied Geophysics》1993,141(2-4):523-543

New and improved techniques and apparatus for testing the mechanical properties of materials at high presures and temperatures are described. These include an improved Griggs-type deformation apparatus designed to operate to 5 GPa and associated servo-controlled hydraulic drive and electronics, the design of hydrostatic (molten alkali halide mixtures) pressure assemblies to measure flow stresses as low as a few MPa, the characterization of temperature gradients and friction in such assemblies, measurement of the melting curve of an alkali halide mixture used as a confining pressure medium, and the measurement of acoustic emissions.  相似文献

Experimental evidence for the role of accessory phases in magma genesis   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

T. H. Green 《Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research》1981,10(4):405-422

Recent experimental studies have established petrogenetic models based on melting processes involving major phases. The possible residual character of trace-element-enriched accessory phases is not considered for temperatures well above the solidus in these models. In contrast, geochemists, applying trace element data to independently test the experimentally-based models, have concluded that residual (or fractionating) accessory phases may have an essential role in controlling the trace element (especially REE) distributions in magmas.Some recent experimental work provides data on the stability of potentially significant accessories such as sphene, rutile, apatite, zoisite and mica in basaltic compositions at elevated P and T. Sphene is stable to 1000°C with 60% melting of a hydrous tholeiite at 15 kbar. At higher pressure, rutile is the only Ti-rich accessory phase, and is present to at least 1000°C and high degrees of melting. Published REE data on sphene and rutile suggest that these phases may be important in controlling REE distribution in some magmas. For example, island are high-Mg, low-Ca-Ti tholeiites with low REE abundances and U-shaped patterns (Hickey and Frey, 1979) may reflect the role of sphene. In addition to rutile, similar close-packed Ti-rich accessory phases such as priderite, perovskite, crichtonite and loveringite may occur in mantle-derived magmas. These phases readily accommodate the REE but their possible role needs experimental confirmation.Apatite is recorded in hawaiite (1.16% P₂O_s) with 2% H₂O added at 5–6 kbar and 1050°C within 30°C of the liquidus, but at present no other experimental data are available on its high P, T stability, although thermodynamic calculations indicate that F may increase its stability markedly. Apatite is well known in high-pressure inclusions and as a phenocryst phase in rocks of the alkaline and calc-alkaline series.Ilmenite is known as a near-liquidus phase in some mafic magmas at 5–10 kbar, but its stability decreases to near-solidus at 25–30 kbar. Zoisite occurs in hydrous mafic compositions at mantle pressures, but it is confined to temperatures < 780°C. Finally, mica has a wide temperature range of stability at mantle pressures, especially in potassic magmas, and phlogopitic mica is stable to 1040°C at 20–25 kbar in a hydrous, K-rich “tholeiite” (1.6% K₂O).  相似文献   

Apatite/liquid partition coefficients for the rare earth elements and strontium     

E. Bruce Watson  Trevor H. Green 《Earth and Planetary Science Letters》1981

Sixteen sets of apatite/liquid partition coefficients (D^ap/liq) for the rare earth elements (REE; La, Sm, Dy, Lu) and six values for Sr were experimentally determined in natural systems ranging from basanite to granite. The apatite + melt (glass) assemblages were obtained from starting glasses artificially enriched in REE, Sr and fluorapatite components; these were run under dry and hydrous conditions of 7.5–20 kbar and 950–1120°C in a solid-media, piston-cylinder apparatus. An SEM-equipped electron microprobe was used for subsequent measurement of REE and Sr concentrations in coexisting apatites and quenched glasses. The resulting partition coefficient patterns resemble previously determined apatite phenocryst/groundmass concentration ratios in the following respects: (1) the rare earth patterns are uniformly concave downward (i.e., the middle REE are more compatible in apatite than the light and heavy REE); (2) D_REE^ap/liq is much higher for silicic melts than for basic ones; and (3) strontium (and therefore Eu²⁺) is less concentrated by apatite than are the trivalent REE. The effects of both temperature and melt composition on D_REE^ap/liq are systematic and pronounced. At 950°C, for example, a change in melt SiO₂ content from 50 to 68 wt.% causes the average REE partition coefficient to increase from ～7 to ～30. A 130°C increase in temperature, on the other hand, results in a two-fold decrease in D_REE^ap/liq. Partitioning of Sr is insenstitive to changes in melt composition and temperature, and neither the Sr nor the REE partition coefficients appear to be affected by variations in pressure or H₂O content of the melt.The experimentally determined partition coefficients can be used not only in trace element modelling, but also to distinguish apatite phenocrysts from xenocrysts in rocks. Reported apatite megacryst/host basalt REE concentration ratios [12], for example, are considerably higher than the equilibrium partition coefficients, which suggest that in this particular case the apatite is actually xenocrystic.A reversal experiment incorporated in our study yielded diffusion profiles of REE in apatite, from which we extracted a REEαCa interdiffusion coefficient of 2–4×10^?14 cm²/s at 1120°C. Extrapolated downward to crustal temperatures, this low value suggests that complete REE equilibrium between felsic partial melts and residual apatite is rarely established.  相似文献   

Correction of pole positions for palaeomagnetic data from the Mesozoic of Australia     

Ronald Green 《Tectonophysics》1977,43(3-4)

Embleton and Schmidt (1977) have published an account of the detailed movement of the palaeomagnetic pole, basing their discussion on recent palaeomagnetic data of Schmidt (1976). The poles used by Embleton and Schmidt (1977) do not accord with the palaeomagnetic data. Schmidt's data appear to need drastic modification, and even if they were correct, the deduced polar wandering trail of Embleton and Schmidt (1977) is of doubtful validity.  相似文献   

The role of sphene as an accessory phase in the high-pressure partial melting of hydrous mafic compositions   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Phillip L. Hellman  Trevor H. Green 《Earth and Planetary Science Letters》1979,42(2):191-201

In a high-pressure experimental study of reactions and possible melt products occurring in the deep continental crust or in subducted oceanic crust, sphene has been identified over a pressure range of 10–18 kbar and to temperatures of 1020°C. Sphene may be a refractory phase with up to 60% partial melting for hydrous mafic compositions. Sphene breaks down at lower pressure than the maximum pressure stability of amphibole in hydrous mafic compositions, and rutile rather than sphene is the important Ti-bearing accessory phase at pressures greater than 16–18 kbar. Sphene and rutile coexist to pressures as low as 14 kbar. This implies that amphibole eclogites containing primary sphene and no rutile have most likely formed at depths less than 45 km.The presence of minor sphene as a residual phase in equilibrium with low-Ti silicic liquids may have a marked effect on the REE distribution in derivative liquids. Thus melts in equilibrium with a garnet and sphene-bearing residuum may have less light-REE-enriched patterns than those predicted when garnet is a residual phase without coexisting sphene. This effect is modelled using REE patterns for sphenes from high-grade metamorphic terrains of western Norway.Both the new REE data and the experimental study have important implications for the genesis of low-Ti magmas formed in continental margins and island arcs.  相似文献
