Abstract: | The Kuiqi granite batholith outcrops in the vicinity of Fuzhou City, Fujian Province and constitutes one of the typical alkali
granitic complexes in the “Belt of Miarolitic Granites” extending along the southeast coast of China. The complex is believed
to have been emplaced at higher levels of the crust in a tensional fault environment. Petrographically it is composed mainly
of aegirine-arfvedsonite granites with early biotite granites scattered. Miarolitic structure and granophyric texture are
commonly observed. The Rb-Sr isochron age of the complex is 107.65 m.y. Both petrological and petrochemical studies show that
the Kuiqi granite is of A-type. Data on chemical composition, REE pattern and transition elements reveal that there is a close
genetic connection between granites and associated volcanic rocks. Thus, syntexistype (I-type) granite, A-type granite and
volcanic rocks form a cogenetic “trinity”, in which the A-type granite is usually the latest member of the volcanic-intrusive
series. |
