Abstract
Late Mesozoic granitoids in the Dalat Zone are widely accepted to be formed in two main stages of magmatism corresponding to Paleo-Pacific subduction and post-orogenic regimes. This study focuses on the transitional phase (ca. 20 Ma interval) between these two stages with representatives of the Deoca granitoids and Ankroet granite in the southern Dalat Zone, mainly along the coastal line from Vung Tau to Binh Thuan. The Deoca rock suite comprises coarse- to medium-grained granites, fine-grained granophyric granite, and dyke phases while the Ankroet suite mainly comprises medium- to fine-grained granite. Although the whole-rock chemical characteristics of these two rock suites to some extent overlap each other with the peraluminous and calc-alkaline signatures and the similarities in element abundance yet exhibit distinction. Rocks of the Deoca suite are characterized by typical arc-like affinities with strong positive anomalies of Rb, Th, U, Pb, and Nd, and negative anomalies of Ba, Nb, Sr, P, Eu, and Ti. The Ankroet granite is especially more depleted in Sr, P, Eu, and Ti and enriched in Rb, Th, U, Ta, and Pb in comparison with the Deoca rock suite and can be categorized as “within-plate” granite formed in the following extensional stage. Zircon U–Pb geochronology of the two rock suites distinguishes two magmatic stages, 93.6 ± 1.3 Ma for the Deoca rocks and 73.3 ± 1.8 Ma for the Ankroet rocks. Zircon Hf isotopic compositions indicate the similarities in source materials of these two rock suites, but they might have been influenced by different geodynamics and magma differentiation processes. Zircon Hf isotopic compositions of the studied rocks are compared to those from the adjacent area (Cambodia, Datlat-Kratie Belt) and suggest that Carboniferous-Permian magmas generating inherited zircons in Cambodia are most likely the source materials of Late Mesozoic plutonic rocks in the Dalat Zone/Cambodia (Dalat-Kratie Belt). This study highlights the distinction of these two rock suites by new observations on zircon morphology and composition. Although they are both enriched in heavy REE relative to light REE, enriched in Ce and depleted in Eu and typical for magmatic zircons, samples of the Ankroet suite tend to be more enriched in REEs compared to those of the Deoca suite, except Eu with strong Eu anomaly. This may indicate the higher involvement of hydrothermal processes on Ankroet granite that is supported by common CL-dark rims of zircon.
