Abstract: | Hydrogen and oxygen isotope studies were carried out on mineral separates from high to ultrahigh pressure metamorphic rocks
at Huangzhen and Shuanghe in the eastern Dabie Mountains, East China. The δ18O values of eclogites cover a wide range of −5‰ to+9‰, but the δD values of micas fall within a narrow range of −85% to −70‰.
Both equilibrium and disequilibrium oxygen isotope fractionations were observed between quartz and the other minerals, with
reversed fractionations between omphacite and garnet in some eclogite samples. The δ18 O values of −5‰ to −1‰ for some of the eclogites represent the oxygen isotope compositions of their protoliths which underwent
meteoric water-rock interaction prior to plate subduction. The preservation of oxygen isotope heterogeneity in the eclogites
implies a channelized flow of fluids during progressive metamorphism caused by rapid subduction. Retrograde metamorphism has
caused oxygen and hydrogen isotope disequilibria between some of the minerals, but the fluid for retrograde reactions was
internally buffered in the stable isotope compositions.
