Abstract
The field, petrological-mineralogical, geochemical and geochronological data
of the metamorphic sole rocks recorded beneath the Fruska Gora, Povlen
(Tejici), Stolovi and Banjska ophiolites in the Western Vardar Zone (WVZ) and
beneath the Zlatibor, Bistrica, Sjenicki Ozren and Brezovica ophiolites in
the Dinaridic ophiolite belt (DOB) in Serbia are compared. The focus has been
made on metabasic rocks formed in contact with the oceanic crust members:
cumulate gabbro and basalts of SSZ-type with E-MORB and OIB-signature and
more evolved tholeiitic basalts of MOR-affinity. Amphibole, the major phase
formed from the mafic sole components, depending on pressure-temperature
conditions exhibits compositional variations. According to mineral
assemblages, estimated P-T conditions and ages, the potential P-T paths are
given: high pressure - low temperature blueschist facies assemblage (7-9 kbar
and ~400°C and <300-350°C and 4-8 kbar), recorded only in the metamorphic
sole at the Fruska Gora (WVZ); high pressure - high temperature amphibolite
to granulite facies (8-10 kbar and >700-850°C), recorded in both domains, the
WVZ (Banjska) and the DOB (Bistrica, Sjenicki Ozren, Brezovica) and medium
pressure - medium temperature amphibolite facies assemblages (~3.5-7 kbar and
>350-650°C) recognized in the WZV (Tejici, Devovici) and the DOB (Zlatibor).
The peak metamorphic conditions point to depths of the oceanic lithosphere
detachment and its initial cooling at 10-30 km, but the ages and tectonic
setting of ophiolites remain poorly constrained. The summarized data may be
used as an important key in geodynamic evolution of the Mesozoic Tethyan
ophiolites. [Projekat Ministarstva nauke Republike Srbije, br. 176019 and br.
