This paper presents integrated field, petrology, geochemistry and geochronology evidence of the ancient oceanic fragments. The magma crystallizing age of the tonalite in the Shangyi complex is 2512±19 Ma and the geochemical characteristics suggest that the Nbenriched basalts may be related to crustal contamination and formed in the intra-oceanic arc of the supra subduction zone setting.展开更多

Here we report a suite of-1.71 Ga Nb-enriched meta-gabbro lenses in the eastern Quanji Massif, within the Tarim Craton in NW China. The meta-gabbroic rocks have Nb contents of 11.5-16.4 ppm with Nb/La ratios varying from 0.84 to 1.02((Nb/La)_N = 0.81-0.98) and Nb/U ratios from 38.0 to 47.2. They show low SiO_2(45.1-48.5 wt.%) and MgO(5.96-6.81 wt.%) and Mg#(Mg# = Mg/(Mg + Fe) = 43.5-47.7), high FeO^t(13.0-15.7 wt.%) and moderate Ti02(1.70-2.51 wt.%).with tholeiitic affinities. These rocks possess low fractionated REE patterns without obvious Eu anomalies(Eu/Eu~* = 0.87-1.02). Their primitive mantle-normalized elements patterns display significant Zr-Hf troughs, positive Nb anomalies, weak negative Ti and P anomalies, and high contents of Rb and Ba,resembling Nb-enriched basalts generated in arc-related tectonic settings. Their arc-like geochemical signatures together with whole rock εNd(t) values of 0.4-2.1 and corresponding old T_(DM)(2.22-2.37 Ga)as well as(^(143)Nd/^(144)Nd)_t and(^(87)Sr/^(86)Sr)t(t = 1712 Ma) values of 0.5104-0.5105 and 0.7030-0.7058,respectively, suggest that their precursor magma originated from mantle wedge peridotite metasomatised by subduction-derived melts. The results from our study reveal subduction along the eastern periphery of the Tarim Craton and marginal outgrowth continuing to ~1.7 Ga within the Columbia supercontinent.展开更多

The adakites, which consist of calc-alkaline dacites and rhyolites, are characterized by strong depletion of heavy rare earth elements (HREEs) (e.g., Yb) and Y, high Sr contents and Sr/Y ratios, either with no Eu anomalies or obvious positive Eu anomalies, apparent positive Sr anomalies, and depleted Nb and Ti. The Alataw adakites are very geochemically similar to the adakites that were presumably derived from partial melting of subducting oceanic crust. The rhyolitic adakite in the Alataw Mountains shows low MgO contents of 0.35% and Mg# values of about 17. However, the dacitic adakite shows high MgO contents of 2.67% to 3.32% and Mg# values of 53 to 58, suggesting that the adakite was possibly contaminated by mantle peridotite. On the other hand, the NEABs are characterized by Na-rich (Na2O/K2O > 2.0), high P2O5 and TiO2 contents, positive to weakly negative Nb anomalies, and non-negative Ti anomalies, suggesting that the NEABs were probably derived from partial melting of mantle peridotite that interacted with slab melt under high geothermal gradient. The Alataw adakites were probably derived from partial melting of oceanic crust on the southern margin of the Junggar plate that was subducted beneath the Bole block in the Carboniferous. The Alataw adakites-NE- ABs association implies that the partial melting of the subducting oceanic crust and the succedent interactions between the slab melt and peridotite in the mantle wedge possibly took place under the Bole arc in Carboniferous. On the southern margin of the Junggar plate, the Carboniferous subduction of oceanic crust (basin) was possibly extensive in the late Paleozoic era. In the Alataw area, high geothermal gradient possibly occurred in Carboniferous, and partial melting of subducting oceanic crust was a probable mechanism of Carboniferous regional crust growth.展开更多

文摘The early Paleozoic tectonic evolution of the Xing'an-Mongolian Orogenic Belt is dominated by two oceanic basins on the northwestern and southeastern sides of the Xing'an Block,i.e.,the Xinlin-Xiguitu Ocean and the Nenjiang Ocean.However,the early development of the Nenjiang Ocean remains unclear.Here,we present zircon U-Pb geochronology and whole-rock elemental and Sr-Nd isotopic data on the gabbros in the Xinglong area together with andesitic tuffs and basalts in the Duobaoshan area.LA-ICP-MS zircon U-Pb dating of gabbros and andesitic tuffs yielded crystallization ages of 443-436 Ma and 452-451 Ma,respectively.The Early Silurian Xinglong gabbros show calc-alkaline and E-MORB affinities but they are enriched in LILEs,and depleted in HFSEs,with relatively low U/Th ratios of 0.18-0.36 andεNd(t)values of-1.6 to+0.5.These geochemical features suggest that the gabbros might originate from a mantle wedge modified by pelagic sediment-derived melts,consistent with a back-arc basin setting.By contrast,the andesitic tuffs are characterized by high MgO(>5 wt.%),Cr(138-200 ppm),and Ni(65-110 ppm)contents,and can be termed as high-Mg andesites.Their low Sr/Y ratios of 15.98-17.15 and U/Th values of 0.24-0.25 and moderate(La/Sm)_n values of 3.07-3.26 are similar to those from the Setouchi Volcanic Belt(SW Japan),and are thought to be derived from partial melting of subducted sediments,and subsequent melt-mantle interaction.The Duobaoshan basalts have high Nb(8.44-10.30 ppm)and TiO2 contents(1.17-1.60 wt.%),typical of Nb-enriched basalts.They are slightly younger than regional adakitic rocks and have positiveεNd(t)values of+5.2 to+5.7 and are interpreted to be generated by partial melting of a depleted mantle source metasomatized by earlier adakitic melts.Synthesized with coeval arc-related igneous rocks from the southeastern Xing'an Block,we propose that the Duobaoshan high-Mg andesitic tuffs and Nbenriched basalts are parts of the Late Ordovician and Silurian Sonid Zuoqi-Duobaoshan arc belt,and they were formed by the nor

文摘Adakites and Nb-enriched arc basaltic rocks (NEABs) are identified to occur within the Carboniferous arc volcanic sequence in the Alataw Mountains, Xinjiang. The adakites, which consist of calc-alkaline dacites and rhyolites, are characterized by strong depletion of heavy rare earth elements (HREEs) (e.g., Yb) and Y, high Sr contents and Sr/Y ratios, either with no Eu anomalies or obvious positive Eu anomalies, apparent positive Sr anomalies, and depleted Nb and Ti. The Alataw adakites are very geochemically similar to the adakites that were presumably derived from partial melting of subducting oceanic crust. The rhyolitic adakite in the Alataw Mountains shows low MgO contents of 0.35% and Mg# values of about 17. However, the dacitic adakite shows high MgO contents of 2.67% to 3.32% and Mg# values of 53 to 58, suggesting that the adakite was possibly contaminated by mantle peridotite. On the other hand, the NEABs are characterized by Na-rich (Na2O/K2O > 2.0), high P2O5 and TiO2 contents, positive to weakly negative Nb anomalies, and non-negative Ti anomalies, suggesting that the NEABs were probably derived from partial melting of mantle peridotite that interacted with slab melt under high geothermal gradient. The Alataw adakites were probably derived from partial melting of oceanic crust on the southern margin of the Junggar plate that was subducted beneath the Bole block in the Carboniferous. The Alataw adakites-NE- ABs association implies that the partial melting of the subducting oceanic crust and the succedent interactions between the slab melt and peridotite in the mantle wedge possibly took place under the Bole arc in Carboniferous. On the southern margin of the Junggar plate, the Carboniferous subduction of oceanic crust (basin) was possibly extensive in the late Paleozoic era. In the Alataw area, high geothermal gradient possibly occurred in Carboniferous, and partial melting of subducting oceanic crust was a probable mechanism of Carboniferous regional crust growth.
文摘黑山头组玄武岩-玄武安山岩组合是西准噶尔早石炭世海相火山-沉积建造的重要组成部分,其与高Mg安山岩及O型adakite共生。此次分析的所有样品均为玄武质岩石,Si O2含量为49.62%~55.68%,平均为52.70%;明显高Ti O2（1.16%~1.99%）,平均为1.56%;显著富Na2O而贫K2O,Na2O为3.17%~6.35%,平均为4.90%,Na2O/K2O为1.19~26.08,绝大多数样品该比值〉4（平均8.93）。样品明显富集Nb、Sr、Zr等,Nb含量均〉7×10-6（7.29×10-6~12.32×10-6,平均为9.48×10-6）;全部样品Sr均〉400×10-6（618×10-6~1107×10-6,平均为825×10-6）;Zr〉158×10-6（159×10-6~217×10-6,平均为182.6×10-6）;Zr/Y比值〉4（6.63~11.09,平均为8.62）。显著高于一般岛弧玄武质岩类。轻稀土明显富集而重稀土亏损显著,且有基本一致的弱正Eu异常。（La/Nb）PM比值〉0.7（1.23~2.26,平均1.94）,（87Sr/86Sr）i=0.7035~0.7039;143Nd/144Nd=0.5128~0.5129;εNd（t）=5.49~7.13。这些地球化学特征与Sajona et al.（1993,1994,1996）确立的富Nb岛弧玄武岩基本一致,而与一般岛弧玄武岩有显著区别。这一发现,为确认西准噶尔早石炭世存在富Nb岛弧玄武岩提供了地球化学佐证,丰富了新疆乃至我国富Nb岛弧玄武岩的产地与层位,也为确认本区早石炭世岛弧构造环境提供了重要依据。
