Zircon U–Pb and Lu–Hf systematics of the major terranes of the Western Superior Craton,Canada: Mantle-crust interaction and mechanism(s) of craton formation     

《Gondwana Research》2020

Paleo-to Neoarchean granitoid gneisses (ca. 3.30 to 2.49 Ga) are well preserved in the Western Superior Craton. Protoliths of these gneisses are mainly I-type granitoids characterized by high Sr/Y and La/Yb ratios and low Mg#, consistent with Archean tonalite-trondhjemite-granodiorites. Zircons from granitoid gneisses commonly contain three growth phases: inherited cores (zircon I), magmatic rims (zircon II) and outer rims that have undergone Pb-loss (zircon III). The 3.12 Ga to 2.86 Ga zircon I represent early crustal material, that was captured in younger zircons; zircon II preserve crustal re-working and younger crustal additions that are constrained between 2.85 to 2.72 and 2.69 to 2.65 Ga.Zircon II contains both positive and negative εHf(t) values (−6.3 to +8.1), with both depleted-mantle and older crustal signatures. Half of the magmatic rims (II) are characterized by depleted mantle signatures with positive εHf(t) values representing juvenile crust-forming events, whereas the other half are characterized by recycled crustal signatures with negative εHf(t) values. εHf(t) results show that the North Caribou and the Island Lake terranes and the northern Uchi domain are isotopically more enriched than the southern Uchi, English River, Wabigoon and Winnipeg River terranes, suggesting the northern Uchi margin represents a major terrane boundary.Based on mass balance calculations, large volumes of juvenile material at circa 3.0 Ga mixed with smaller amounts of older crust. The vast majority of the granites were derived from a source with about 50% mantle material during the peak crust formation events after 2.8 Ga. The decline in the volume of felsic magmatism in the later Archean is coeval with a reduced supply of both heat and material from depleted mantle sources. Combined with previously published geochemical, geochronological and isotopic data, this suggests an evolution in felsic magma sources consistent with crustal thickening.  相似文献

内蒙古大青山地区是典型的早前寒武纪造山带根部岩石出露区,大量下地壳高级变质-深熔岩石中保留了丰富的流变构造样式,是开展部分熔融岩石流变行为研究的天然实验室。本文对内蒙古大青山地区雪海沟和大庙-忽鸡沟构造带内变形岩石开展了宏观、微观构造解析、EBSD组构以及锆石U-Pb年代学研究,并结合前人研究成果,考查了不同构造层次、不同熔融程度岩石的流变特征及其与造山过程的耦合关系。研究结果表明,雪海沟至大庙-忽鸡沟地区体现了造山带地壳结构层次由深至浅的特点。深部构造层次（雪海沟）高级深熔条件下,宏观上以各种形式的浅色脉体参与岩石流变,深熔熔体夹矿物颗粒流形成网状的断续条带状构造。微观上斜长石受扩散蠕变、颗粒边界滑移和颗粒流动影响,一般没有明显的晶内变形组构,CPO（晶格优选方位）发育不明显。在中深部构造层次（大庙-忽鸡沟）深熔作用相对较弱,宏观上形成平行片麻理的较规则条纹/条带构造。微观上斜长石发生位错蠕变,CPO发育明显。此外,角闪石在不同构造层次下均表现出位错蠕变特征,结晶优选方向受深熔作用影响不大。上述变形样式和机制,体现了造山带根部高级变质-深熔岩石在固-液两相介质中,发生水平层状粘-塑性流动变形特点。随后深熔岩石的塑性流动变形伴随加厚地壳的伸展减薄-隆升过程而逐渐硬化并遭受剥露。  相似文献   

Geochronology,petrogenesis and tectonic implications of the Zhongchuan granitic pluton in the Western Qinling metallogenic belt,China

The Zhongchuan district is an important component of the metallogenic belt in the Western Qinling. The Zhongchuan granite pluton occurring in the centre of the Zhongchuan metallogenic area has been poorly constrained, though the Triassic granite in Western Qinling has been well documented. In‐situ zircon U–Pb ages, Hf isotopic compositions and whole‐rock geochemical data are presented for host granite and mafic microgranular enclaves (MMES) from the Zhongchuan pluton, in order to constrain its sources, petrogenesis and tectonic setting of the pluton. The distribution of major, trace and rare earth elements apparently reflect exchange between the MMES and the host granitic rocks mainly due to interactions between coeval felsic host magma and mafic magma. The zircon U–Pb age of host granite (231.6 ± 1.5 to 235.8 ± 2.3 Ma) has overlapping uncertainty with that of the MMES (236.6 ± 1.3 Ma), establishing that the mafic and felsic magmas were coeval. The Hf isotopic composition of the MMES (ε_Hf(t) = −13.4 to 4.0) is distinct from the host granite (ε_Hf(t) = −15.7 to 0.0), indicating that both enriched subcontinental lithosphere mantle (SCLM) and crustal sources contributed to their origin. The zircons have two‐stage Hf model ages of 1064 to 1798 Ma for the host granite and 858 to 1747 Ma for the MMES. This suggests that the granitic pluton was likely derived from partial melting of a Late Mesoproterozoic crust, with subsequent interaction with the SCLM‐derived mafic magmas in tectonic affinity to the South China Block.

U and Th Contents and Th/U Ratios of Zircon in Felsic and Mafic Magmatic Rocks: Improved Zircon-Melt Distribution Coefficients     

WANG Xiang  Williams L. GRIFFIN  CHEN Jie  HUANG Pinyun  LI Xiang 《《地质学报》英文版》2011,85(1):164-174

High-precision data on U and Th contents and Th/U ratios of zircon obtained using secondary ion mass spectrometry analysis have been collected from the literature. Zircon in the granitic rocks has median values of 350 ppm U, 140 ppm Th, and Th/U=0.52; the recommended zircon-melt partition coefficients are 81 for DU and 8.2 for DTh. In zircon from mafic and intermediate rocks, the median values are 270 ppm U, 170 ppm Th, and Th/U=0.81, and the recommended zircon-melt partition coefficients are 169 for DU and 59 for DTh. The U and Th contents and Th/U ratios of magmatic zircon are low when zircon crystallizes in equilibrium with the melt. Increasing magma temperature should promote higher Th contents relative to U contents, resulting in higher Th/U ratios for zircon in mafic to intermediate rocks than in granitic rocks. However, when zircon crystallizes in disequilibrium with the melt, U and Th are more easily able to enter the zircon lattice, and their contents and Th/U ratios depend mainly on the degree of disequilibrium. The behavior of U and Th in magmatic zircon can be used as a geochemical indicator to determine the origins and crystallization environments of magmatic zircon.  相似文献
