The aim is to constrain the petrogenesis and tectonic evolution of these rocks. Field and petrographic observations distinguish the studied rocks into two varieties: leucogranitic gneisses referred as type 1 and augen gneisses referred as type 2. Zircon U-Pb dating of type 1 yields a weighted mean age of ∼460 Ma while type 2 yields an age of ∼480 Ma, indicating that both types were emplaced during the early Paleozoic. Geochemically both types are strongly peraluminous, high-K calc-alkaline, and show high normative corundum, indicating an S-type granite magma source derived from the anataxis of heterogeneous supracrustal metasedimentary rocks. The highly negative εHf(t) values (−29.5 ∼ −8.8) further confirm types 1 and 2 rocks were derived from crustal material without a significant contribution from the mantle. Type 1 rocks are characterized by the presence of tourmaline, high Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>/TiO<sub>2</sub> (67.3–84.2)<sub>,</sub> and low CaO/Na<sub>2</sub>O (0.25–0.37) ratios, suggesting their formation through the partial melting of boron-rich metapelites under moderate temperatures (avg. 763 °C, based on Ti-in-zircon thermometry). In contrast, type 2 rocks lack tourmaline, show higher CaO/Na<sub>2</sub>O ratios (0.60–0.70), lower Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>/ TiO<sub>2</sub> ratios (19.3–23.9), and are likely formed from hydration-driven partial melting of metagraywacke at an average temperature of ∼704 °C. The geochemical and isotopic data in this paper, and their comparison with coeval rocks from the Himalaya and other regions, suggest that magma of the studied Paleozoic granites originated from heterogenous metasedimentary sources, likely deposited in a back-arc basin followed by the subduction of the Proto-Tethyan Oceanic lithosphere, followed by slab roll-back and break-off. Such a tectonic setting possibly triggered mafic magmatic underplating and induced partial melting of the back-arc assemblages. Both rock types contain occasionally inherited zircon cores that yield ages of ∼2065 to ∼773 Ma, indicating remnants of earlier crustal growth events. Additionally, a few zircon grains with ages of ca. 53 and 25 Ma could be linked with the Cenozoic India-Asia collision-related magmatism, metamorphism, and post-collision anataxis.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":18070,"journal":{"name":"Lithos","volume":"502 ","pages":"Article 108008"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-02-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143519643","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The late Mesozoic granitic magmatism in intra-continental setting within the Qinling Orogenic Belt (QOB) in central China generated numerous Mo-fertile porphyries (total proven Mo resource of 8.43 Mt) together with barren granites. However, the factors controlling porphyry Mo mineralization potential remain equivocal. Here we present whole-rock geochemistry, zircon U-Pb-Hf and trace elements, and apatite compositions from the Shijiawan monzogranite porphyry, biotite granodiorite porphyry, and mineralized K-feldspar granite porphyry. In conjunction with the data from coeval fertile and barren granitoids in the QOB, we evaluate the key factors including the magma source, water content, oxygen fugacity, and volatiles for the porphyry Mo mineralization. The porphyries of the Shijiawan deposit show emplacement ages of 139–136 Ma and I-type granite affinity, with Sr<img>Nd and Hf isotopes mixing models suggesting a crust-mantle mixed source and involving ∼24 % mantle-derived materials. The mineralized K-feldspar granite porphyries show a higher contribution of mantle-derived materials as indicated by more depleted Hf isotopes and higher REE contents in apatite than those of barren phases. Their higher whole rock La/Yb (39–56) and V/Sc (5.9–12.5), apatite ΣLREE contents, and lower zircon saturation temperatures (average T<sub>Zr</sub> = 776 °C) also suggest higher water content (&gt;6 wt%) than barren porphyries. In the QOB, the Late Jurassic to Early Cretaceous Mo-fertile porphyries and barren granites have similar crust-mantle mixed sources, but the porphyries with larger Mo tonnage have higher mantle contribution and higher magma water content leading to efficient fluid exsolution, as recorded by the extremely low Cl content of apatite crystallized in residual melt. The relatively high fluorine (F) content and occurrence of fluorite indicate that F can effectively promote Mo mineralization. In addition, both fertile porphyries and barren granites show consistently high oxygen fugacity (ΔFMQ = 0–2, Ce<sup>4+</sup>/Ce<sup>3+</sup> &gt; 100) and S content (&gt; 715 ppm). The higher mantle contribution, magma water content, and F are probably the key controlling factors for porphyry Mo mineralization in this region.

This sequence is composed of metasedimentary and intercalated metabasic rocks, which contain detrital zircons and xenocrysts with U-Pb ages of 2812–540 Ma (<em>n</em> = 159). Among them, several zircons yield three discordia curves with lower intercepts of 547 Ma (<em>n</em> = 8), 543 Ma (<em>n</em> = 19) and 548 Ma (<em>n</em> = 16). Besides, the youngest concordant zircons show magmatic affinity, and have a weighted mean age of 544.5 Ma (<em>n</em> = 11). These age data are coeval with ca. 545 Ma arc magmatism in the Northern Gondwana, and we assign a Late Neoproterozoic age of ca. 544.5–538.8 Ma for the Liwu Group protoliths.

It is also an important period for the formation and evolution of the crust of many terranes (such as the Lhasa and South Qiangtang terranes) in the Tibetan Plateau. As a probe to understand the composition and structure of the crust, igneous rocks play an important role in improving our understanding of continental crustal formation and evolution. In this study, zircon U-Pb dating, zircon Hf isotopes, and the whole-rock geochemistry of Early Jurassic magmatic rocks in the Tangjia-Sumdo area of the Lhasa terrane of the Tibetan Plateau were studied. The results indicate that the compositions are granite (187.4 ± 1 and 196.5 ± 1 Ma), granite porphyry (196.0 ± 1 Ma), granodiorite (196.4 ± 1 Ma), quartz monzonite (188.1 ± 1 Ma), and gabbro (182.8 ± 1 Ma). The intermediate-acidic rocks (197–187 Ma) are all I-type granites and the products of the mixture of crust- and mantle-derived magma. The gabbro (∼183 Ma) is derived from the depleted mantle, which is the product of the partial melting of spinel and garnet lherzolites. Based on the geochemical data of intermediate-acidic magmatic rocks from the Triassic to Jurassic in the Lhasa terrane, the changes in the Sr/Y, (La/Yb) <sub>N</sub>, Dy/Yb, and Sm/Yb values indicate that the crust of the Lhasa terrane thickened in the Late Triassic (240–200 Ma) and thinned in the Jurassic (200–160 Ma). We suggest that in the Late Triassic (240–200 Ma), the Sumdo Paleo-Tethys Ocean closed and the collisional orogeny between the southern and northern Lhasa terrane led to crustal thickening. The intermediate-acidic rocks (197–187 Ma) are the products of the break-off of the Sumdo Paleo-Tethys Ocean Plate. The gabbro (∼183 Ma) is formed by the intrusion and condensation of magma formed by the partial melting of the mantle wedge metasomatized by subducted sediments in an active continental margin, which is the product of the northward subduction of the Neo-Tethys Ocean.

Here, we expand the scope of experimental results on hydrous ultramafic rocks to assemblages rich in Ca-amphibole and apatite, which are found as xenoliths in eastern Australia. Experiments were conducted at 15 kbar on five hydrous ultramafic mineral assemblages; four consisted of equal amounts of Ca-amphibole and apatite, some with minor clinopyroxene and/or phlogopite. A fifth mix consisted of 50 % each of mica and clinopyroxene, but with lower Mg# (Mg/(Mg + Fe)) than in previous experiments. Results show that Ca-amphibole melts rapidly and completely within 50–100 °C of the solidus, producing melts with melilitite-nephelinite compositions similar to the amphibole. Apatite contribution to the melt is minor (P<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub> = 2.1–4.7 wt%) and clinopyroxene crystallises as a peritectic phase. These melts are distinct from those produced from mixtures containing alkali amphibole+phlogopite in having much lower SiO<sub>2</sub> (35–40 wt%) and low K<sub>2</sub>O/Na<sub>2</sub>O, but higher CaO and Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>. Melts of mica clinopyroxenites have intermediate SiO<sub>2</sub> (41–47 wt%) and much higher K/Al.</div><div>Trace element patterns for incompatible elements show that abundances for most elements are much lower than in natural nephelinites and melilitites as long as residual apatite retains elements with high D<sup>ap/melt</sup>, but incompatible trace element abundances approach those of natural rocks if apatite melts out. Hydrous minerals exert strong control on many first-row transition elements (especially Ni and Cr) and may sequester these in the proximal parts of vein systems, removing them efficiently from migrating melts. The melting points of all hydrous ulltramafic rocks, whether rich in phlogopite, Ca-amphibole or K-richterite, are below that of water-undersaturated peridotite. High degrees of melting occur quickly if amphibole is abundant, and so significant amounts of melt may be mobile at temperatures below or close to the solidus of peridotite.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":18070,"journal":{"name":"Lithos","volume":"500 ","pages":"Article 107976"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-02-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143395797","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These Early to Middle Miocene (about 25 to 12 Ma) complexes show marked isotopic differences between mafic rocks from the northern (Sal and Boa Vista) and the southern Maio Island, the latter showing lower <sup>143</sup>Nd/<sup>144</sup>Nd, <sup>206</sup>Pb/<sup>204</sup>Pb, <sup>207</sup>Pb/<sup>204</sup>Pb, and higher <sup>87</sup>Sr/<sup>86</sup>Sr ratios. The main mantle plume composition beneath Cape Verde is here considered to be dominated by the FOZO component. Our data supports previous models suggesting the incorporation to plume components of minor DMM mantle sources in the northern CV island alignment, whereas mixing with the EM1 pole is prevalent on the southern CV islands. These isotopic differences are evident since the early stages of Cape Verde magmatism. The Late Miocene to Holocene time period (7 to 1.7 Ma) is characterized by the irruption of silica-undersaturated and carbonatite magmas with a relatively homogeneous isotopic composition and highly radiogenic Pb signatures (<sup>206</sup>Pb/<sup>204</sup>Pb up to 20.6 in carbonatitic rocks and 20.2 in silicate rocks) throughout most of the Cape Verde archipelago. During this transitional stage, the input of this new HIMU mantle component overprinted the previous mixing of the main FOZO plume component with shallow mantle members (DMM, EM1) of minor contribution.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":18070,"journal":{"name":"Lithos","volume":"498 ","pages":"Article 107975"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-02-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143378750","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
