Neoproterozoic crustal growth at the margin of the East Gondwana continent – age and isotopic constraints from the easternmost inliers of Oman     

《International Geology Review》2012,54(16):2046-2064

ABSTRACT

The Jebel Ja’alan and Qalhat inliers of Oman represent the easternmost exposures in the Arabian peninsula of the Neoproterozoic basement associated with the East African Orogen (EAO) and the assembly of East and West Gondwana. These inliers expose tonalitic gneisses and metasediments intruded by granodiorites and granites of the Ja’alan batholith. Zircons from the gneisses yield U–Pb SIMS ages of ca. 900–880 Ma, which are interpreted as crystallization ages. These represent the oldest magmatic events associated with the closure of the Mozambique Ocean reported to date. Zircon of this age is also the dominant component in the metasediments. The Ja’alan batholith yields ages of ca. 840–825 Ma. Nd isotopes indicate that both the gneisses and the batholith range from juvenile to slightly more evolved, with ε_Nd(t) of +6 to +1.5 interpreted to reflect variable contamination by older, evolved continental material; this is also indicated by >900 Ma detrital zircon from the metasediments. The Nd data also contrast with the uniformly juvenile signature of younger, ca. 840 Ma, rocks of the Marbat region of southern Oman that lie structurally to the west. The Ja’alan and Qalhat inliers thus document eastward increasing age and continental influence, consistent with the progressive development of arc rocks onto the western margin of East Gondwana, although the location and nature of the eastern continental block remain elusive.  相似文献   

Provenance of detrital zircons in the Late Triassic Sichuan foreland basin: constraints on the evolution of the Qinling Orogen and Longmen Shan thrust-fold belt in central China     

《International Geology Review》2012,54(14):1806-1824

In this article, we present in situ U–Pb and Lu–Hf isotope data for Upper Triassic detritus in the Sichuan region of northwestern South China, which was a foreland basin during the Late Triassic. The aim is to determine the provenance of sediments in the foreland basin and to constrain the evolution of the surrounding mountain belts. U–Pb age data for the Late Triassic detrital zircons generally show populations at 2.4–2.6 Ga, 1.7–1.9 Ga, 710–860 Ma, 410–460 Ma, and 210–300 Ma. By fitting the zircon data into the tectonic, sedimentologic, and palaeographic framework, we propose that the north Yangtze Block and South Qinling–Dabie Orogen were the important source areas of sediments in the northern part of the foreland basin, whereas the Longmen Shan thrust-fold belt was the main source region for detritus in other parts of the foreland basin. The South Qinling–Dabie Orogen could also have served as a physical barrier to block most detritus shed from the southern North China Block into the foreland basin during the sedimentation of the Xujiahe Formation. Our results also reveal that part of the flysch from the eastern margin of the Songpan–Ganzi region had been displaced into the Longmen Shan thrust-fold belt before the deposition of the foreland basin sediments. In addition, the Lu-Hf data indicate that Phanerozoic igneous rocks in central China show insignificant formation of the juvenile crust.  相似文献

Detrital zircon U?Pb ages,Hf isotopes and tectonic implications for Palaeozoic sedimentary rocks from the Xing‐Meng orogenic belt,middle‐east part of inner Mongolia,China     

Dapeng Li  Yuelong Chen  Zhong Wang  Kejun Hou  Changzheng Liu 《Geological Journal》2011,46(1):63-81

The Xing‐Meng Orogenic Belt is the eastern extension of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt that marks the boundary between the North China Block and the Siberian Block. Studies of zircon U Pb ages and Hf isotopic compositions show that four clastic sedimentary rock samples from different parts of the regional stratigraphic sequence were deposited at different ages, none earlier than Mid‐ or Early Silurian. Two sedimentary rocks were deposited during or after the Early Permian. Almost all zircons are of igneous origin. In Silurian and Devonian sediments, zircons show several modal age peaks, and in Permian sediments, zircons show a unimodal age peak. Based on the zircon age distribution of sedimentary rocks versus known ages from exposed rocks of the potential source regions, most of the zircons were derived from the Xing‐Meng Orogen itself. A few came from the South Mongolian microcontinent or the Siberia Block, but none came from the North China Block. The zircons of a biotite‐plagioclase paragneiss in Xilinhot have similar provenance to the sediments and were deposited during or after the Middle Devonian. Similarities between zircon age spectra and events in underlying rocks of sedimentary origin show that the sediments lie at their deposition site north of the Solonker suture zone because north‐dipping subduction and elevation blocked deposition of material from farther afield. Hf isotope compositions show the crustal accretion stages of the provenance areas during the Meso‐ to Neoarchaean, Palaeoproterozoic and Early and Late Palaeozoic. A two‐component mixing calculation based on Hf isotopes shows the large scale of the crustal accretion event of the region. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献   

秦岭印支期构造背景、岩浆活动及成矿作用   总被引：32，自引：3，他引：29       下载免费PDF全文

秦岭造山带以其独特的大地构造位置、复杂的地质演化和丰富的矿产资源而成为地质科学研究的焦点,科学家已经基本清楚了其大地构造格局和地质演化轮廓,共识其在印支期(三叠纪:251～199.6Ma)彻底实现了由海盆向大陆造山带的转变。但是,盆山转变的过程细节、洋盆闭合的时间、三叠纪大地构造属性以及相关的岩浆作用和成矿作用研究薄弱,认识分歧较多。笔者通过综合分析地质、地球物理、地球化学、矿产资源等方面的研究成果,认为三叠纪的秦岭恰似现今地中海,并存着洋陆俯冲和陆陆碰撞,并逐渐由洋陆俯冲转变为陆陆碰撞体制;秦岭古特提斯洋于230～200Ma期间自东向西拉链式缝合,扬子陆块与华北-秦岭联合大陆之间的碰撞造山作用接踵而至;三叠纪的秦岭构造背景并非单一的陆陆碰撞,更非过去认为的造山后或碰撞后。秦岭印支期岩浆作用强烈,形成了埃达克岩、钙碱性花岗岩、高钾钙碱性花岗岩、碱性岩、疑似奥长环斑花岗岩、碳酸岩等多种岩浆岩;它们自勉略缝合带向北显示分带性,依次是:阳山—胭脂坝过铝质S型或改造型花岗岩带、南秦岭高镁埃达克质的钙碱性花岗岩带、北秦岭高钾钙碱性花岗岩带、华北克拉通南缘碱性岩-碳酸岩带;印支期岩浆作用的复杂性、多样性、空间分带性和成分极性等特点无法用陆陆碰撞或碰撞后构造体制来解释,而应是勉略洋板块向北俯冲的结果。秦岭印支期成矿作用长期被忽视,但最近已发现有重要经济价值的印支期矿床类型有碳酸岩脉型、造山型和斑岩型钼矿床,卡林型-类卡林型、造山型和斑岩-爆破角砾岩型金矿床,造山型银多金属矿床,表明在洋陆俯冲向陆陆碰撞转变体制的成矿作用强烈、成矿类型多样,印支期矿床的找矿潜力较大。  相似文献

《地学前缘(英文版)》2020,11(6):2339-2346

A new cerite group mineral species, taipingite-(Ce), ideally (Ce₇³⁺, Ca₂)_Σ9Mg(SiO₄)₃[SiO₃(OH)]₄F₃, has been found in the Taipingzhen rare earth element (REE) deposit in the North Qinling Orogen (NQO), Central China. It forms subhedral grains (up to approximately 100 ​μm ​× ​200 ​μm) commonly intergrown with the REE mineral assemblages and is closely associated with allanite-(Ce), gatelite-(Ce), törnebohmite-(Ce), fluocerite-(Ce), fluocerite-(La), fluorite, bastnäsite-(Ce), parisite-(Ce) and calcite. Taipingite-(Ce) is light red to pinkish brown under a binocular microscope and pale brown to colorless in thin section, and it is translucent to transparent with a grayish-white streak and vitreous luster. This mineral is brittle with conchoidal fracture; has a Mohs hardness value of approximately 5½ and exhibits no cleavage twinning or parting. The calculated density is 4.900(5) g/cm³. Optically, taipingite-(Ce) is uniaxial (+), with ω ​= ​1.808(5), ε ​= ​1.812(7), c ​= ​ε, and a ​= ​b ​= ​ω. Furthermore, this mineral is insoluble in HCl, HNO₃ and H₂SO₄. Electron microprobe analysis demonstrated that the sample was relatively pure, yielding the empirical formula (with calculated H₂O): (Ce_4.02La_1.64Nd_1.49Pr_0.41Sm_0.10Gd_0.02Ho_0.02Tm_0.01Lu_0.02Y_0.03Ca_0.66Mg_0.05Th_0.01–0.51)_Σ9(Mg_0.75Fe_0.25³⁺)_Σ1(SiO₄)₃{[SiO₃(OH)]_3.98[PO₃(OH)]_0.02}_Σ4(F_1.81OH_1.17Cl_0.02)_Σ3. Taipingite-(Ce) is trigonal and exhibits space group symmetry R3c with unit cell parameters a ​= ​10.7246(3) Å, c ​= ​37.9528(14) Å, V ​= ​3780.39(20) ų and Z ​= ​6. The strongest eight lines in the X-ray diffraction pattern are [d in Å(I)(hkl)]: 4.518(50)(202), 3.455(95)(122), 3.297(85)(214), 3.098(35)(300), 2.941(100)(02,10), 2.683(65)(220), 1.945(40)(238) and 1.754(40)(30,18). The crystal structure has been refined to a R₁ factor of 0.025, calculated for the 2312 unique observed reflections (Fo ​≥ ​4σ). The mineral is named after its discovery locality and is characterized as the F-dominant analogue of cerite-(Ce).  相似文献   

西天山小哈拉军山富钛磁铁矿辉长岩的岩石成因及其构造环境     

贺鹏丽  黄小龙  杨帆  王雪  李武显 《岩石学报》2020,36(7):2001-2016

天山造山带晚古生代构造争议部分源于对晚古生代岩浆岩的岩石成因及其构造环境认识不足。本文对西天山小哈拉军山辉长岩进行了系统的矿物学、岩石学、地球化学和年代学研究,以探讨其岩石成因、地幔源区特征及其形成的构造背景。锆石U-Pb定年分析结果显示小哈拉军山辉长岩形成于早二叠世早期(295±3Ma)。该辉长岩富含钛磁铁矿(含量高达8vol%以上),并且主要造岩矿物如斜长石、单斜辉石、角闪石均显示出富Fe-Ti的特征,表明其形成于富Fe-Ti的岩浆体系。岩相学特征显示,小哈拉军山辉长岩的斜长石结晶早于单斜辉石和角闪石,由角闪石成分估算的岩浆水含量相对较低,暗示了相对干的初始岩浆体系,并且单斜辉石的Al-Ti含量关系显示出板内岩浆的特征,均表明该辉长岩并非岛弧岩浆产物,应形成于拉张构造环境,因此西天山地区在早二叠世早期已处于碰撞后伸展阶段。另外,该辉长岩的全岩富集大离子亲石元素和轻稀土元素,相对亏损重稀土和高场强元素,全岩εNd(t)略亏损(2.34～3.30),Sr同位素比值变化较大(~(87)Sr/~(86)Sr=0.7045～0.7067),表明岩浆来源于富集的地幔源区,可能与造山带形成之前的俯冲板片组分的交代富集相关。由于西天山地区在早二叠世已处于造山后的伸展阶段,是塔里木大火成岩省范围内地幔柱活动最易于表现的地区,而小哈拉军山辉长岩与相邻的哈拉达拉富V-Ti磁铁矿层状辉长岩具有相似的岩浆源区和矿化特征,并具有密切的时空关系,很可能都为塔里木早二叠世地幔柱活动的产物。  相似文献   

兴蒙造山带西段乌珠新乌苏花岗岩岩石成因和构造背景:地球化学、U-Pb年代学和Sr-Nd-Hf同位素约束

兴蒙造山带的构造演化及古亚洲洋的闭合时限尚存在较大争议,沿缝合带出露的花岗岩的侵位时代和成因对于约束古亚洲洋的演化具有重要意义。乌珠新乌苏花岗岩位于兴蒙造山带西段的索伦缝合带内,其Na_2O+K_2O含量为7.14%～9.36%,Al_2O_3含量为13.18%～13.49%,K_2O/Na_2O为1.10～1.52,属于高钾钙碱性系列岩石。稀土总量富集(174.8×10~(-6)～213.7×10~(-6)),相对富集轻稀土元素,轻重稀土分异中等[(La/Yb)_N=3.68～5.41],Eu负异常明显。乌珠新乌苏花岗岩富集Rb、Th、Hf,亏损Nb、Sr、P、Ti等元素,符合典型高分异A型花岗岩的低Sr、高Yb、Eu负异常的特点,显示后碰撞花岗岩的特征,形成于造山后地壳减薄阶段。乌珠新乌苏花岗岩锆石LA-ICP-MS U-Pb定年显示其~(206)Pb/~(238)U加权平均年龄为279±2.7Ma(MSWD=1.6)和276±1.9Ma(MSWD=0.69)。正的全岩ε_(Nd)(t)值(2.1～2.7)和锆石ε_(Hf)(t)值(7.7～10.2)以及相对年轻的亏损地幔模式年龄(Nd的t_(DM2)为826～874Ma;Hf的t_(DM2)为655～931Ma),表明乌珠新乌苏花岗岩母岩浆可能来源于新元古代新生下地壳的部分熔融。综合花岗岩的地质地球化学、年代学及同位素特征,认为兴蒙造山带西段的乌珠新乌苏地区在早二叠世处于后碰撞的伸展环境。  相似文献

1 Introduction The early Precambrian basement of the North China Craton (NCC) consists mainly of the Eastern Continental Block, the Western Continental Block and the Trans-North China Orogen (TNCO, or “the Central Tectonic Zone”), which formed by continental collision between the Eastern and Western Blocks (Zhao et al., 1998). This evolutionary model has now been widely accepted (Wu and Zhong, 1998; Guan et al., 2002; Guo et al., 2002; Liu et al., 2002a, b; Liu et al., 2004a, b;…  相似文献
