Baguio, in the Central Cordillera of Northern Luzon, is a district that displays porphyry copper and epithermal gold mineralization, associated with Early Miocene–Pliocene–Quaternary calc‐alkaline and adakitic intrusions. Systematic sampling, K‐Ar dating, major and trace elements, and Sr, Nd, Pb isotopic analyses of fresh magmatic rocks indicate three magmatic pulses: an Early Miocene phase (21.2–18.7 Ma), a Middle–Late Miocene phase (15.3–8 Ma) and finally a Pliocene–Quaternary event (3–1 Ma). The first phase emplaced evolved calc‐alkaline magmas, essentially within the Agno Batholith complex, and is thought to be related to the westward‐dipping subduction of the West Philippine Basin. After a quiescence period during which the Kennon limestone was deposited, magmatic activity resumed at 15.3 Ma, in connection with the start of the subduction of the South China Sea along the Manila Trench. It emplaced first petrogenetically related and relatively unradiogenic low‐K calc‐alkaline lavas and intermediate adakites. Temporal geochemical patterns observed from 15.3 to 1 Ma include progressive enrichment in K and other large ion lithophile elements, increase in radiogenic Sr and Pb and corresponding decrease in radiogenic Nd. These features are thought to reflect the progressive addition to the Luzon arc mantle wedge of incompatible elements largely inherited from South China Sea sediments. The origin of the long quiescence period, from 8 to 3 Ma, remains problematic. It might represent a local consequence of the docking of the Zambales ophiolitic terrane to Northern Luzon. Then, magmatic activity resumed at 3 Ma, emplacing chemically diversified rocks ranging from low K to high K and including a large proportion of adakites, especially during the Quaternary (dacitic plugs). The authors tentatively relate this diversity to the development of a slab tear linked with the subduction of the fossil South China Sea ridge beneath the Baguio area.  相似文献   

四川梭罗沟大型金矿区新生代碱性煌斑岩脉地球化学特征及其地质意义     

张文林  曹华文  杨志民  席孝义  刘文武  彭仕冕  郑硌 《矿物岩石地球化学通报》2015,34(1):110-119

木里梭罗沟大型金矿是目前四川省内探明金属量最大的金矿床,但对其研究程度较低,尤其是矿区东部大量出露的数条煌斑岩脉从未做过详细的地球化学研究。对煌斑岩脉的研究可以从地球动力学角度揭示区域构造演化,有助于对矿床成因的认识。本文选取10个煌斑岩样品,采用X荧光光谱和等离子体质谱,以及黑云母K-Ar年代学的分析测试。结果显示,其SiO2含量为42.7%~46.9%,K2O/Na2O值为1.16,黑云母K-Ar年龄为26.7~26.4Ma,说明其为形成于古近纪晚期渐新世的碱性煌斑岩。其ΣREE较高(平均708×10-6),LREE/HREE值为14.6~16.5,具弱的负Eu、Ce异常。其大离子亲石元素和轻稀土元素相对富集;高场强元素和重稀土元素亏损,且Ta、Nb和Ti具有"TNT"负异常。从而推断梭罗沟煌斑岩形成于晚碰撞与后碰撞转换时期的板内构造环境,可能起源于残留洋壳板片对地幔楔的交代富集作用,其母岩浆为石榴子石二辉橄榄岩地幔源区低程度部分熔融的产物。  相似文献

大兴安岭中部哈拉哈河-绰尔河第四纪火山区分布有34座火山,这些火山总体呈北东向带状分布,火山岩分布面积约400 km2,岩性主要为碱性橄榄玄武岩.根据火山地质特征,结合火山岩K-Ar测年结果,哈拉哈河-绰尔河第四纪火山可进一步划分为早、中、晚更新世和全新世4期.早更新世火山岩,由于被后期火山岩覆盖,主要分布于火山区周边和出露在河谷中.中更新世火山活动最强,不论火山数量(27座)还是熔岩流规模都超过该区第四纪火山的一半以上.晚更新世时期火山活动趋弱,火山活动范围缩小,只局限于小范围区域.全新世火山活动又进入新的高峰期,强爆破式喷发和规模宏大的熔岩流,以及保存完好的熔岩流地貌是全新世火山之特点.  相似文献   

Metamorphic K-Feldspar in Low-grade Metasediments from the Ogcheon Metamorphic Belt in South Korea     

Sung Won Kim  Tetsumaru Itaya  Hironobu Hyodo  Takaaki Matsuda 《Gondwana Research》2002,5(4):849-855

Metamorphic K-feldspar was found in the low-grade pelitic rocks from the Ogcheon metamorphic belt in South Korea. It occurs as extremely fine-grained crystals (5-15 mm in width and 15-25 mm in length) closely associated with fine-grained muscovite and biotite. Their micro structural relations by X-ray mapping analyses using an electron-probe microanalyzer strongly suggest that K-feldspar has grown directly from the matrix phases as a stable phase coexisting with muscovite and biotite during the Ogcheon metamorphism. The phengite component in muscovite indicates about 4.2 kbar at 400°C, suggesting intermediate P/T type of metamorphism. Muscovite separates of two size fractions, 2-4 and 4-8 mm, give K-Ar ages of 153.4±3.3 and 156.7±3.4 Ma, respectively. The biotite separate is 156.5±3.3 Ma in age. Coarse-grained biotite crystal (ca. 0.5 mm) often occurs and it was analyzed by ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar method using a laser probe step heating technique. It gives a plateau age of 158.2±0.5 Ma that is the same as the K-Ar muscovite and biotite ages. These data, including the previous works, suggest that intermediate P/T type of Ogcheon metamorphic belt exhumed in Middle Jurassic with the dextral strike-slip fault movement.  相似文献

The Monts de Lacaune belong to the south-eastern (external) part of the French Massif Central. They constitute the lowermost unit in the Albigeois Nappe Pile, which is juxtaposed to the S against the gneiss dome (“Zone Axiale”) of the Montagne Noire. The Monts de Lacaune are composed of Cambrian to Silurian sediments, which show very low-grade metamorphic conditions. A multi-method investigation of phyllosilicates (illite and chlorite crystallinity, b cell dimension, K-Ar dating of fine fractions and electron microprobe analysis) permits to distinguish three metamorphic events: M1 (acquired during early folding and nappe stacking, 342-333 Ma), M2 (caused by the rise of the hot Zone Axiale) and M3 (probably caused by post-Variscan intrusions, Permian). The age range obtained for the nappe stacking is intermediate between deformation ages dated in the northern part of the Albigeois Nappe Pile and in the Southern Palaeozoic Nappes (southern Montagne Noire). This conforms to the classical concept of S-ward propagating tectonic accretion in the French Massif Central with a rate of shortening of c. 1.5 cm/year.  相似文献   

K-Ar Geochronology of Mesozoic Mafic Dikes in Shandong Province, Eastern China: Implications for Crustal Extension   总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3

Based on K-Ar isotope analyses, Mesozoic mafic (and alkali ultramafic) dikes from western and eastern Shandong Province, China, are dated at 88.2±1.70 Ma to 169.5±3.7 Ma with the majority of ages ranging from 90 Ma to 140 Ma. The emplacement of the dikes suggests a major Yanshanian (Cretaceous) crustal extension in Shandong province. Together with other available age data, this study suggests four periods of crustal extension at about 80 Ma, 100 Ma, 120 Ma and 140 Ma, respectively. Besides the effect of collapse of the Yanshanian orogenic belt on the emplacement of the mafic dikes in Shandong in the Cretaceous, the mantle plume and the extensive left-lateral advection and extension of the Tanlu fault also have controlled the crustal extension and the emplacement of the mafic dikes in eastern Shandong and western Shandong, respectively.  相似文献

根据采集样品的野外产状,结合前人对天池火山造锥阶段粗面岩时代的研究以及本文给出的新的K-Ar年龄,比较了天池火山北坡和东北坡的造锥粗面岩喷发时代,分析了不同期次喷发的粗面岩的覆盖范围,发现天池火山东北坡粗面岩年龄明显新于北坡粗面岩年龄。天池火山东北坡造锥阶段粗面岩的最老年龄距今0.38Ma,属于中更新世晚期,是第3造锥阶段的喷发物。在东北坡未发现第1造锥和第2造锥阶段的喷发物。新给出的天池火山北侧和东侧2个钻孔资料表明,天池火山造锥粗面岩喷发之前存在距今约2Ma和约1Ma左右的更早期的粗面岩喷发过程。造锥阶段碱流质岩浆喷发持续时间可能在距今0.190～0.0192Ma  相似文献   

Chronological dating and tectonic implications of late Cenozoic volcanic rocks and lacustrine sequence in Oiyug Basin of southern Tibet     

Chen HeHai  Han JingTai  Ding ZhongLi  Sun HuiGuo  Guo ZhengFu 《中国科学D辑(英文版)》2008,51(2):275-283

Reconstruction of uplift history of the Tibetan Plateau is crucial for understanding its environmental impacts. The Oiyug Basin in southern Tibet contains multiple periods of sedimentary sequences and volcanic rocks that span much of the Cenozoic and has great potential for further studying this issue. However, these strata were poorly dated. This paper presents a chronological study of the 145 m thick and horizontally-distributed lacustrine sequence using paleomagnetic method as well as a K-Ar dating of the underlying volcanic rocks. Based on these dating results, a chronostratigraphic framework and the basin-developmental history have been established for the past 15 Ma, during which three tectonic stages are identified. The period of 15-8.1 Ma is characterized by intense volcanic activities involving at least three major eruptions. Subsequently, the basin came into a tectonically quiescent period and a lacustrine sedimentary sequence was developed. Around 2.5 Ma, an N-S fault occurred across the southern margin of the basin, leading to the disappearance of the lake environment and the development of the Oiyug River. The Gyirong basin on northern slope of the Himalayas shows a similar basin developmental history and thus there is a good agreement in tectonic activities between the Himalayan and Gangdise orogenic belts. Therefore, the tectonic evolution stages experienced by the Oiyug Basin during the past 15 Ma could have a regional significance for southern Tibet. The chronological data obtained from this study may provide some constraints for further studies with regard to the tectonic processes and environmental changes in southern Tibetan Plateau.  相似文献   

K-Ar age of Ukra glauconites from the Kutch Basin, India     

S. S. Rathore  B. N. Prabhu  A. R. Vijan  K. C. Vig  K. N. Misra 《Journal of Earth System Science》1999,108(1):49-55

The present paper reports the K-Ar ages determined on glauconitic samples collected from the Ukra Member of the Mesozoic Bhuj Formation in two different sections, one located on the Ghuneri-Ghaduli road near Katesar Mahadeo temple and the other at the base of the Ukra hill in the northwestern part of the Kutch Mainland area. Three glauconite samples viz., Ukra_KT-1, Ukra_KT-4 and Ukra_UH-3 have yielded K-Ar ages of 107.9 ± 3.4 Ma, 105.5 ± 3.3 Ma and 103.5 ± 3.4 Ma, respectively. The sample Ukra_KT-l treated with 0.5N HC1 and analysed in duplicate has yielded a mean age of 104 ± 2.3 Ma while the sample Ukra_KT-4 treated with 0.1N HCl has given an age of 106.5 ± 3.3 Ma. The ages of the treated and untreated glauconites are indistinguishable within 2σ uncertainty with a mean of 105.2 ± 1.3 Ma, which has been interpreted as the depositional age of the Ukra Member of the Mesozoic Bhuj Formation. The study has further indicated that mild acid treatment (up to 0.5N HCl) does not lead to any loss of radiogenic argon in the glauconites and can be helpful in purification of the samples.  相似文献
