    Prolonged magmatism, juvenile nature and tectonic evolution of the Chinese Altai,NW China Evidence from zircon U–Pb and Hf isotopic study of Paleozoic granitoids [查看] KedaCai、MinSun、ChaoYuan、GuochunZhao、WenjiaoXiao、XiaopingLong、FuyuanWu
    Paleozoic granitoid magmatism played an important role in the tectonic evolution of the Chinese Altai,and zircon U–Pb and Hf isotopic compositions have been determined for samples from eleven granitic plutons/batholiths. The Jiadengyu gneissic granitic pluton yielded a zircon U–Pb age of 479 Ma, and thus it does not represent Precambrian basement as suggested previously. Our results and published data demonstrate that voluminous granitoids were continuously emplaced over more than 30% area of the Chinese Altai during the period from 447 Ma to 368 Ma with a climax at ca. 400 Ma. Ages for zircon overgrowth rims demonstrate additional thermal events at ca. 360 and 280 Ma, respectively. Positive eHf(t) values (0 to +9) of normal magmatic zircons suggest that the granitoid magmas were derived from juvenile sources. Xenocrystic zircon cores are 543–421 Ma old and also give positive eHf(t) values (+2.5 to +12), suggesting their origin as early crystallized minerals in the magma chambers or as inherited cores from newly-accreted meterials. The strong magmatism at ca. 400 Ma significantly changed the Hf isotopic composition of the magma source by substantial input of juvenile material in a relatively short period.Geophysical, geological and geochemical data support that ridge subduction was a possible mechanism for the strong magmatism ca. 400 Ma and the above mentioned change of Hf isotopic composition in the magma source.
    Geochronology, petrogenesis and tectonic significance of peraluminous granites from the Chinese Altai, NW China [查看] KedaCai、MinSun、ChaoYuan、GuochunZhao、WenjiaoXiao、XiaopingLong、FuyuanWu
    The Paleozoic granites in the Chinese Altai are important for the study of tectonic evolution and crustal growth in the Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB). Four representative peraluminous granitic intrusions were selected for systematic studies of zircon U–Pb and Hf isotopic compositions and whole-rock geochemical and Nd–Sr isotopic analyses. These rocks have high ASI (Alumina Saturation Index, Al2O3/(CaO+Na2O+K2O)=1.01–1.46 molecular ratios), with 0.6–5.6 wt.% of normative corundum, and are characterized by moderately negative Eu anomalies (Eu/Eu*=0.38–0.98) and strong depletion in Ba, Nb and Sr elements. Our data suggest that these intrusions were emplaced from 419 to 393 Ma, consistent with a period of intensive magmatic activities and high temperaturemetamorphismin the Chinese Altai.While in situ zircon Hf isotopic analyses for these granites give predominantly positive εHf(t) values (+0.8 to+12.8), a few inherited zircons yield negative εHf(t) values from −12.5 to −1.53. The U–Pb age and Hf isotopic data of these inherited zircons are similar to that of the widespread metasediments. In addition, the peraluminous granitic rocks have near-zero or negative εNd(t) values(−3.3 to−0.5) and relatively high initial 87Sr/86Sr ratios (0.7079–0.7266), distinct fromthose of the I-type granites in the study region, but similar to the Early Paleozoic Habahe sediments. These isotopic compositions suggest that the newly accreted metasediments of Habahe Group may be the major source rock of the peraluminous granites. The geochemical compositions indicate that their precursor magmas were derived from a relatively shallow crustal level (P≤5 kbar) and zircon saturation temperatures suggest that these granitic intrusions were emplaced at 672–861 °C. The peraluminous granitic magmas were generated by dehydration melting of newly accreted materials, which were possibly brought to at least middle crustal depth by subduction-related processes in an active margin, and were subsequently molten by strikingly high ambient temperature probably caused by upwelling of the hot asthenosphere associated with ridge subduction in the Paleozoic.
    Geochemical and geochronological study of early Carboniferous volcanic rocks from the West Junggar Petrogenesis and tectonic implications [查看] HongyanGeng、MinSun、ChaoYuan、GuochunZhao、WenjiaoXiao
    A series of early Carboniferous volcanic rocks, i.e., basalt, andesite, and dacite, occur in the West Junggar.Zircon U–Pb isotopic data indicate that these rocks coevally erupted at 331–344 Ma. These volcanic rocks have comparable trace element patterns, characterized by the enrichment of large ion lithophile elements (LILE) and the depletion of high field strength elements (HFSE). Isotopically, they display consistently depleted Sr–Nd isotopic compositions (initial 87Sr/86Sr ratios = 0.7034–0.7054, eNd(t) = 4.2–7.7).These rocks are interpreted to be derived from a slightly metasomatized depleted mantle in a normal subduction environment. In the context of a previously proposed ridge subduction model, this study constrains that ridge subduction, if it indeed occurred, commenced between 331 and 310 Ma in the central West Junggar.
