Geochronology and Geochemistry of the Yangbajain Leucite Porphyry, Tibet: Implication for Timing of N-S Rift
详细信息   
摘要


     The petrology, geochemistry, and U-Pb geochronology of the Yangbajain leucite porphyry cellected from Rongniduo, in the Dangxung-Yangbajain rift graben in southern Tibet were studied. The leucite samples are porphyritic texture, with megacrysts of leucite as large as 4cm to 6cm and other small minerals plagioclase, pyroxene and olivine. They are basaltic-like SiO2 = 52% - 54% , high alkalis K20 Na20 =9. 8% - 12. 3% , potassic rocks, which belongs to tephriphonolite in TAS diagram. The rocks are enriched in light rare earth element [ La/Yb N = 19 -20], with slightly Eu nagetive anormaly SEu =0. 68 -0. 77. They show enrichment in large-ion lithophile dements LILEs, Rb, Th, and U, depleted in high field strength elements HFSEs, Nb, Ta, P, and Ti, and depleted in MgO, and other compatible dements Cr, Co and Ni. This suggests that the rocks are not generated directly from mantle. And the rocks also show depleted in Sr-Nd isotopic, combined with other characteristics that containing olivine and pyroxene and basaltic-like SiOz = 52% -54% , indicating that they did not result from partial melting of mantle directly, but they inherit the characteristics of the depleted mantle sources, and fractional crystallization occurred thereafter. The Yangbajain leucite porphyry and Linzizong volcanic rocks are from different magma sources, magmatic evolutionary relationships do not exist between them. The zircon dating shows the rocks crystallized at the age of 8. 2 - 15.4Ma weighted average age is 10. 9 ± 1.6Ma, which provides a powerful evidence for the timing of the Dangxung-Yangbajain rift graben.
