Abstract
In this study, laser ablation–multicollector–inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometry (LA–MC–ICP–MS) of apatites and LA–ICP–MS of zircons are used to collect U–Pb geochronological data, Rb–Sr isotope chronology is used to analyze alkaline feldspar and plagioclase, and archival apatite geochemistry data for the exposed Naitoushan basalt and Heishigou dike in the Changbaishan Tianchi volcano (CTV) are accessed to examine the petrogenesis and determine the origin of basaltic magmatism in the CTV. The Naitoushan basalt and Heishigou dike formed at 22.2–18.7 and 0.230–0.218 Ma, respectively. In situ oxides, volatiles, trace element geochemistry and Sr–Nd isotopes of apatite are reported for two samples. Most apatites are in the early crystallization phase and form inclusions in plagioclase that are euhedral or subhedral. They have higher MgO and K2O/Na2O concentrations; lower F and Cl concentrations; Ba, Sr, Nb, Ta, Zr, Hf, K, and Ti depletion; and Th, U, Ce, Pb, P, and Nd enrichment. All apatite samples are enriched in light rare earth elements (REEs) relative to heavy REEs and have relatively homogeneous Th/U, Zr/Hf, La/Sm, and Nd/Tb ratios and Sr–Nd isotopic compositions; thus, their host magmas potentially have the same magmatic origin as oceanic island basalt. The apatite La, Yb, and U contents, Eu/Eu* and La/Yb values, and high REE contents show a weak crystallization sequence in the mafic magma. This study demonstrates that the pre-shield and post-shield mafic magmas in the CTV were likely derived from an enriched mantle source with an I-type signature related to the rollback of the Pacific plate.
期刊介绍:
Mineralogy and Petrology welcomes manuscripts from the classical fields of mineralogy, igneous and metamorphic petrology, geochemistry, crystallography, as well as their applications in academic experimentation and research, materials science and engineering, for technology, industry, environment, or society. The journal strongly promotes cross-fertilization among Earth-scientific and applied materials-oriented disciplines. Purely descriptive manuscripts on regional topics will not be considered.
Mineralogy and Petrology was founded in 1872 by Gustav Tschermak as "Mineralogische und Petrographische Mittheilungen". It is one of Europe''s oldest geoscience journals. Former editors include outstanding names such as Gustav Tschermak, Friedrich Becke, Felix Machatschki, Josef Zemann, and Eugen F. Stumpfl.
