UHP slices of continental crust are usually involved in multistage exhumation and partial melting, which has obvious influence on the rheological features of the rocks, and thus significantly affect the dynamic behavior of subducted slices. Moreover,partial melting of UHP rocks have significant influence on element mobility and related isotope behavior within continental subduction zones, which is in turn crucial to chemical differentiation of the continental crust and to crust-mantle interaction.Partial melting can occur before, during or after the peak metamorphism of UHP rocks. Post-peak decompression melting has been better constrained by remelting experiments; however, because of multiple stages of decompression, retrogression and deformation, evidence of former melts in UHP rocks is often erased. Field evidence is among the most reliable criteria to infer partial melting. Glass and nanogranitoid inclusions are generally considered conclusive petrographic evidence. The residual assemblages after melt extraction are also significant to indicate partial melting in some cases. Besides field and petrographic evidence, bulk-rock and zircon trace-element geochemical features are also effective tools for recognizing partial melting of UHP rocks. Phase equilibrium modeling is an important petrological tool that is becoming more and more popular in P-T estimation of the evolution of metamorphic rocks; by taking into account the activity model of silicate melt, it can predict when partial melting occurred if the P-T path of a given rock is provided.UHP silicate melt is commonly leucogranitic and peraluminous in composition with high SiO_2,low MgO, FeO, MnO, TiO_2 and CaO, and variable K_2 O and Na_2 O contents. Mineralogy of nanogranites found in UHP rocks mainly consists of plagioclase + K-feldspar + quartz, plagioclase being commonly albite-rich.Tr展开更多

The equilibrated phases and their compositions of the quenched samples were analyzed by using SEM/EPMA (Scanning Electron Microscope/Electron Probe Micro Analysis) and XRD (X Ray Diffraction). The phase equilibrium results include two cases, the two phase coexistence and the three-phase coexistence in the high Al2O3 region with oxygen partial pressure of either 10.13 Pa or 1.01 × 10^-3 Pa. Effects of oxygen partial pressure and temperature on the liquidus along the primary phase fields of CaO · Al2O3 and CaO · 2Al2O3 were nota hle. With the decrease of oxygen partial pressure, the liquid area expands and the liquidus of CaO · Al2O3 and CaO · 2Al2O3 primary fields moves to the Al2O3-FeOx region. On the other hand, the liquid area of CaO Al2O3-FeOx sys tem extends extremely to the high Al2O3 region with the temperature increasing from 1 400 to 1 500℃, especially at lower oxygen partial pressure. The present experiment results are in good agreement with the calculated ones by FactSage.展开更多
