| Abstract: | This paper presents the results of geochemical, isotopic (Sm-Nd), and geochronological (U-Pb and Ar-Ar) investigations of leucogranites from the Garevka massif in the Transangara segment of the Yenisey Ridge. The most distinctive geochemical characteristics of these A-type granitoids are the enrichment in silica, potassium, iron, and fluorine and a considerable depletion in europium. Using U-Pb zircon geochronology, the age of the Garevka leucogranites was estimated as 752 ± 3 Ma, which allowed us to attribute them to a previously established Neoproterozoic tectonic event related to the collision of the Central Angara terrane and the Siberian craton. The parental melts of the granitoids were probably derived by melting of a mixed source composed of continental crustal rocks of Paleoproterozoic and Mesoproterozoic and (or) Neoproterozoic ages. Based on the obtained petrological, geochemical, and geochronological data, the leucogranites of the Garevka massif were assigned to the Neoproterozoic postcollisional Glushikha complex. |
