Abstract
Ankroet granite from the Dalat zone (DZ), Vietnam, is commonly the main petrographic composition of granite and biotite granite, coinciding with the Ankroet complex. The primary rock-forming minerals of the Ankroet granite include plagioclase (30–35%), quartz (30–35%), K-feldspar (25–30%), and biotite (5–7%). Geochemically, they are metaluminous with an average A/CNK value of 0.95–1.04, high SiO2 (73.68–74.14), and low Na2O/K2O < 1. Petrographical and geochemical characteristics of Ankroet granites are classified as A-type granite generated from post-orogenic magmas. Zircons selected from these rocks are characterized by prismatic shape, oscillatory zoning, no luminescent rim, and a high ratio Th/U (0.75–1.78) that are indications of the magmatic origin. We report the first LA-ICP-MS 206Pb/238U zircon ages of 87.9 Ma for the Ankroet granite in the DZ in southern Vietnam. This age value is temporally consistent with Late Cretaceous magmatism previously reported in the DZ. Together with other Late Mesozoic magmatic complexes along the DZ, the Ankroet granites are a representative of magmatism linked to post-orogenic magmas beneath the Indochina block during the Late Cretaceous.
期刊介绍:
Doklady Earth Sciences is a journal that publishes new research in Earth science of great significance. Initially the journal was a forum of the Russian Academy of Science and published only best contributions from Russia. Now the journal welcomes submissions from any country in the English or Russian language. Every manuscript must be recommended by Russian or foreign members of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
