碎屑锆石U-Pb定年在准噶尔盆地南缘物源研究中的应用

伊连哈比尔尕山山前断褶带是准噶尔南缘前陆盆地和北天山造山带的重要结合部位,从该区采集了4件中生界中的砂岩样品,用LA-ICP-MS方法对其中的250个锆石颗粒进行了U-Pb年龄测定.根据锆石的矿物学特征、CL图像特点以及碎屑锆石年龄分布特征,结合古水流条件的约束,对其沉积物源和构造环境进行了分析.结果表明,锆石形成年龄的范围在170~2 886 Ma间.最年轻的碎屑锆石年龄是(170±1)Ma,说明这套地层不老于中侏罗世;最古老锆石的年龄峰值为2 200~2 900 Ma和1 000~1 600 Ma,源区应为天山在燕山期造山后已有古老基岩的剥露区;290~310 Ma和400~410 Ma的锆石,物源可能包括两部分:伊山为主和部分来自南部的中天山地区;碎屑锆石中出现170~200 Ma的年龄峰值,表明晚侏罗世北天山及盆地南缘发生了较明显的隆升和剥蚀作用,判断其物源为天山北坡.     

西秦岭光头山花岗岩锆石U-Pb年代学及其地质意义

光头山花岗岩体出露于勉略缝合带北侧, 主要由英云闪长岩和二长花岗岩组成。英云闪长岩表现为片麻状构造, 局部英云闪长岩糜棱岩化形成花岗质糜棱岩。而二长花岗岩在糜棱岩带形成之后侵位, 含有少量的石榴石,弱的片麻状到块状构造。LA-ICPMS 锆石原位U-Pb同位素定年结果表明, 光头山岩体为两个阶段侵位, 糜棱岩化英云闪长岩( 样品GT18-01)的侵位结晶年龄是221±6Ma, 而二长花岗岩(样品GT11-01)的结晶年龄是199±4Ma,代表了晚期二长花岗岩形成的时代。结合区域构造背景和前人研究的地球化学特征, 早期的英云闪长岩可能在勉略洋盆闭合前的岛弧发育阶段侵位, 代表了洋壳俯冲的弧岩浆活动的产物。然后扬子地台与秦岭微陆块拼合, 形成勉略缝合带。约199Ma秦岭主造山期同碰撞岩浆活动形成了晚期(石榴石)二长花岗岩。因此, 勉略洋盆闭合和勉略缝合带形成时期大约为221～199Ma 。     

秦岭西坝花岗岩LA-ICP-MS 锆石 U-Pb 年代学及其地质意义

西坝花岗岩位于南秦岭构造带陕西境内, 主要由花岗闪长岩、二长花岗岩和英云闪长岩组成。LA-ICP-MS 锆石U-Pb 原位同位素定年结果表明, 西坝岩体侵位于印支期, 由二长花岗岩样品(XB01-2)得到了219±1 Ma的年龄, 花岗闪长岩样品(XB06-1) 给出的年龄是218±1 Ma, 二者在误差范围内一致, 约218Ma代表了西坝花岗岩体的成岩时代。西坝岩体的年龄结合区域构造背景以及前人研究的地球化学特征, 说明它可能是秦岭主造山期岩浆活动的产物。     

Geochronology and geochemistry of the Fangcheng Neoproterozoic alkali-syenites in East Qinling orogen and its geodynamic implications

Finding of Neoproterozoic syenites at Fangcheng in the northern Qinling region of the East Qinling orogen provides an important constraint on timing of tectonic transformation to extensional regime. The alkaline pluton consists mainly of nepheline syenite, aegirine syenite, and alkali-feldspar syenite. The syenites are of intermediate （SiO2 = 54%-62%）, rich in alkali （K2O＋Na2O = 12%-15%）, aluminum （Al2O3= 16.81%-23.26%） and large ion lithophile elements （LILE）, without any obvious Nb, Ta, Zr, and Hf anomalies. The Fangcheng syenites are geochemically characterized by relative enrichment of LREE, minor differentiation of HREE, significant negative Eu anomalies （Eu = 0.13-0.23）, less negative εNd（t） values of -1.37 to-3.90, young Nd model ages of 1364 to 1569 Ma, and high zircon saturation temperatures of 915 to 1044℃. The syenitic magmas probably originated from small proportion melting of upper mantle in an extensional regime of intraplate-anorogenic tectonic setting, and have been slightly contaminated by crustal materials during ascending and/or emplacement. LA-ICP-MS zircon U-Pb dating yields ages of 844.3±1.6 Ma （MSWD=0.86）, suggesting that the Fangcheng alkaline syenites formed in the early Neoproterozoic. They are the oldest Neoproterozoic alkaline rocks ever recognized in the Qinling orogen as well as in South China. This implies that the tectonic regime of the Qinling region would have transformed from post-collisional stretch to intraplate-anorogenic extension no later than 844 Ma.     

新疆西准噶尔萨尔托海地区英安岩锆石U-Pb年龄及其对达拉布特蛇绿岩侵位时限的约束

新疆西准噶尔达拉布特蛇绿岩在其北东段萨尔托海地区被下石炭统火山岩-沉积岩不整合覆盖。对这套沉积-火山岩系中的英安岩进行 LA-ICP-MS 锆石 U-Pb 定年, 获得 ²⁰⁶Pb/²³⁸U 加权平均年龄为 349±2 Ma(早石炭世杜内期)。英安岩REE 分配型式具有轻稀土富集、重稀土相对平坦、Eu 负异常明显的特点。微量元素原始地幔标准化图解中, 所有样品的标准化丰度都随着元素不相容性的增加而增大。与经典的弧英安岩以及埃达克火山岩相比, 太勒古拉组英安岩 Sr 含量平均值为 195 μg/g, Sr/Y 平均值为 5.2, La/Yb 平均值为4.6, 远小于经典的弧英安岩和埃达克岩。结合太勒古拉组变形、变质微弱的特点, 认为早石炭世英安岩形成于板内裂谷环境, 且在早石炭世之前达拉布特蛇绿岩已经就位。     

Multistage evolution of continental collision orogen: A case study for western Dabie orogen

The foramtion and evolution of collisional orogen is a prominent feature along convergent plate margins, and is generally a complex process. This article presents an integrated study of zircon genesis, U-Pb age and Lu-Hf isotope composition as well as geological characteristics for the western Dabie orogen to constrain its multi-stage evolution history. The results suggest that the formation of oceanic crust in the Huwan area was constrained at ca. 400--430 Ma, which was slightly later than the collision of the northern Qinling with the North China Block. It formed in a marginal basin in the northern margin of the Yangtze Block. The peak metamorphism of eclogite in the Huwan area occurred at ca. 310 Ma, and the timing of the initial exhumation of oceanic eclogite was about 270 Ma. The high to ultrahigh pressure （HP-UHP） metamorphic rocks in the Xinxian and the Hong＇an metamorphic zones have the same ages and natures as those of the HP-UHP metamorphic rocks in the other Dabie-Sulu terrains, and also have experienced multi-stage exhumation, and thus can be taken as a coherent part of the Dabie-Sulu orogen. Therefore, the Qinling-Dabie-Sulu orogen is a typical multi-stage continental collision orogen, with an amalgamation process extending more than 200 Ma.     

Paleoproterozoic reworking of ancient crust in the Cathaysia Block, South China: Evidence from zircon trace elements, U-Pb and Lu-Hf isotopes

A combined study of zircon LA-ICP-MS U-Pb dating, trace elements and Hf isotope was carried out for gneissic granite from the Sanzhishu area in Jingning, SW Zhejiang Province. Nearly all the zircons separated from the granite exhibited oscillatory zoning and high Th/U ratios (>0.1). The REE profile showed a pronounced positive Ce anomaly, negative Eu anomaly and an enrichment of HREE, which are typical characteristics of magmatic zircon. Thirteen concordant or nearly concordant analytical data yielded a weighted mean ²⁰⁷Pb/²⁰⁶Pb age of 1860±13 Ma (MSWD=0.084), representing the formation age of the granite. The magmatic zircons had negative εHf(t) values of −15.6 to −10.0 and two-stage Hf model ages of 3.1 to 3.4 Ga, indicating that the granites were formed by reworking of ancient crust. The major- and trace-element data indicate that the gneissic granites are metaluminous high-K calc-alkaline rocks and exhibit the same geochemical characteristics as aluminous A-type granites, implying the emplacement of the granite in a post-orogenic extensional tectonic setting. We conclude that the Paleoproterozoic crustal reworking event in the Cathaysia Block of South China marked the transition from assembly to break-up of the Columbia supercontinent.

西藏冈底斯带东段强母错噶石英二长岩锆石U-Pb年龄、地球化学特征及地质意义

对出露于西藏冈底斯弧背断隆带东段的强母错噶石英二长岩进行了锆石U-Pb年代学和全岩地球化学分析,并据此探讨了该岩体的形成演化过程与成岩时的大地构造背景。测试结果表明,强母错噶石英二长岩中的岩浆锆石U-Pb加权平均年龄为(50.84±0.71) Ma(MSWD=0.51)为始新世早期。石英二长岩ω(SiO_2)=64.34%～64.87%,ω(K_2O)=4.66%～4.76%,ω(Na_2O)=3.38%～3.42%,ω(CaO)=3.65%～3.72%,ω(Al_2O_3)=15.91%～16.08%,全碱含量(K_2O+Na_2O)为8.04%～8.15%,K_2O/Na_2O=1.38～1.41,属于准铝质(A/CNK=0.91～0.93)钾玄岩系列。强母错噶石英二长岩轻稀土元素(LREE)含量为(241.62～441.75)×10~(-6),重稀土元素(HREE)含量为(18.58～20.60)×10~(-6),(LREE/HREE=12.48～21.65),稀土元素配分模式为轻稀土元素强烈富集的右倾型,其(La/Yb)_N为15.38～33.79,具中等负Eu异常(δEu=0.60～0.67)。微量元素显示强母错噶石英二长岩相对富集大离子亲石元素,而Nb、Ta、Ti和P等高场强元素(HFSE)相对亏损,显示出火山弧环境背景下中等分异程度的I型花岗岩特征。强母错噶石英二长岩的形成可能与冈底斯带始新世早期强烈的岩浆作用和新特提斯洋板片断离引发的地壳增厚密切相关,大洋板片断离从而引起软流圈物质上涌,导致下地壳部分熔融并与上涌地幔混合形成壳幔混合岩浆。

In situ U-Pb dating of titanite by LA-ICPMS

Titanite is an ideal mineral for U-Pb isotopic dating because of its relatively high U,Th and Pb contents.Here,we developed a technique for U-Pb dating of titanite using the 193 nm ArF laser-ablation system and Agilent 7500a Q-ICP-MS.Standards of titanite (BLR-1 and OLT-1) and zircon (91500 and GJ-1) were dated using single spot and line raster scan analytical methods.To check the matrix effect,titanite (BLR-1) and zircon (91500) standards were analyzed as the external standards.The weighted mean 206 Pb/238 U ages of OLT-1 titanite are 1015±5 Ma (2,n=24) and 1017±6 Ma (2,n=24) by single spot and line raster scan analyses,respectively,using BLR-1 titanite as the external standard.These ages are consistent with its reference age of about 1014 Ma.However,using 91500 zircon as the external standard,the weighted mean 206 Pb/238 U ages are 917±4 Ma (2,n=24) and 927±5 Ma (2,n=24) for BLR-1 titanite,and 891±4 Ma (2,n=24) and 901±5 Ma (2,n=24) for OLT-1 titanite by single spot and line raster scan analyses,respectively.It is evident that these ages are ～12% younger than their reference values.Our results reveal that significant matrix effect does exist between different kinds of minerals during LA-ICPMS U-Pb age determination,whereas it is insignificant between same minerals.Therefore,same mineral must be used as the external standard for fractionation corrections during in situ LA-ICPMS U-Pb age analysis.In addition,we determined U-Pb ages for titanites from the Early Cretaceous Fangshan pluton,which indicates a rapid cooling history of this pluton.
