Abstract:
Abstract Metasomatized mantle wedge peridotites exhumed within high-pressure terranes of continental collision zones provide unique insights into crust-mantle interaction and attendant mass transfer, which are critical to our understanding of terrestrial element cycles. Such peridotites occur in high-grade gneisses of the Ulten Zone in the European Alps and record metasomatism by crustal fluids at 330 Ma and high-pressure conditions (2.0 GPa, 850 °C) that caused a transition from coarse-grained, garnet-bearing to fine-grained, amphibole-rich rocks. We explored the effects of crustal fluids on canonically robust Lu-Hf peridotite isotope signatures in comparison with fluid-sensitive trace elements and Nd-Li isotopes. Notably, we found that a Lu-Hf pseudo-isochron is created by a decrease in bulk-rock 176Lu/177Hf from coarse- to fine-grained peridotite that is demonstrably caused by heavy rare earth element (HREE) loss during fluid-assisted, garnet-consuming, amphibole-forming reactions accompanied by enrichment in fluid-mobile elements and the addition of unradiogenic Nd. Despite close spatial relationships, some peridotite lenses record more intense fluid activity that causes complete garnet breakdown and high field strength element (HFSE) addition along with the addition of crust-derived unradiogenic Hf, as well as distinct chromatographic light REE (LREE) fractionation. We suggest that the observed geochemical and isotopic provinciality between peridotite lenses reflects different positions relative to the crustal fluid source at depth. This interpretation is supported by Li isotopes: inferred proximal peridotites show light δ7Li due to strong kinetic Li isotope fractionation (−4.7–2.0‰) that accompanies Li enrichment, whereas distal peridotites show Li contents and δ7Li similar to those of the depleted mantle (1.0–7.2‰). Thus, Earth's mantle can acquire significant Hf-Nd-Li-isotopic heterogeneity during locally variable ingress of crustal fluids in continental subduction zones.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT:The Lu-Hf and Re-Os isotope systems have been applied sparsely to elucidate the origin of granites, intracrustal processes and the evolution of the continental crust. The presence or absence of garnet as a residual phase during partial melting will strongly influence Lu/Hf partitioning, making the Lu–Hf isotope system exceptionally sensitive to evaluating the role of garnet during intracrustal differentiation processes. Mid-Proterozoic (1·1–1·5Ga ) ‘anorogenic’ granites from the western U.S.A. appear to have anomalously high εHf values, relative to their εNd values, compared with Precambrian orogenic granites from several continents. The Hf-Nd isotope variations for Precambrian orogenic granites are well explained by melting processes that are ultimately tied to garnet-bearing sources in the mantle or crust. Residual, garnet-bearing lower and middle crust will evolve to anomalously high εHf values over time and may be the most likely source for later ‘anorogenic’ magmas. When crustal and mantle rocks are viewed together in terms of Hf and Nd isotope compositions, a remarkable mass balance is apparent for at least the outer silicate earth where Precambrian orogenic continental crust is the balance to the high-εHf depleted mantle, and enriched lithospheric mantle is the balance to the low-εHf depleted mantle.Although the continental crust has been envisioned to have exceptionally high Re/Os ratios and very radiogenic Os isotope compositions, new data obtained on magnetite mineral separates suggest that some parts of the Precambrian continental crust are relatively Os-rich and non-radiogenic. It remains unclear how continental crust may obtain non-radiogenic Os isotope ratios, and these results have important implications for Re-Os isotope evolution models. In contrast, Phanerozoic batholiths and volcanic arcs that are built on young mafic lower crust may have exceptionally radiogenic Os isotope ratios. These results highlight the unique ability of Os isotopes to identify young mafic crustal components in orogenic magmas that are essentially undetectable using other isotope systems such as O, Sr, Nd and Pb.

Abstract:
AbstractDetrital zircons are often used to constrain the maximum sedimentary age of strata and sedimentary provenance. This study aimed at reconstructing the Cryogenian palaeogeography of the Yangtze Domain based on U–Pb ages and Lu–Hf isotopic signatures of detrital zircons from sandstones in the southeastern part of the Yangtze Domain. U–Pb ages of the youngest detrital zircon grains from the Niuguping, Gucheng and Datangpo formations yielded average ages of 712±24 Ma, 679.2±6.2 Ma and 665.1±7.4 Ma, respectively, which are close to the depositional ages of their respective formations. An integrated study of detrital zircon Lu–Hf isotopes and U–Pb ages from three samples revealed six main peak ages in the samples from the Anhua section atc. 680 Ma,c. 780 Ma,c. 820 Ma,c. 940 Ma,c. 2000 Ma andc. 2500 Ma. The characteristics of the U–Pb ages and Hf isotopes indicate a link between the north and southeast margins of the Yangtze Domain as early asc. 680 Ma, and the provenance of the coeval sedimentary sequences in the SE Yangtze Domain was the South Qinling Block on the northern margin of the Yangtze Domain. The provenance analysis on thec. 680 Ma detritus composing upper Neoproterozoic strata in the Yangtze Domain revealed that the detritus was transported southward from South Qinling to the southeast margin of the Yangtze Domain through the Exi Strait, but was hindered by the Jiangnan Orogenic Belt.

Abstract:
The Lu-Hf method has been used in the investigation of geological samples in order to understand processes and sources of magmatic rocks. This paper discusses the reference materials GJ-01, 91.500 and Mud Tank isotopic composition by LA-ICP-MS to investigate how suitable they are for the zircon analysis through this technique. The results show that the three zircons have homogeneous compositions for the proposed objectives. Considering that relatively high Yb contents produce isobaric interference, the results of this work have shown that the Mud Tank is the best reference material, since it has lower values of this element. Thus, the Mud Tank allows to obtain more reliable results due to lower correction requirements. In addition, it should be emphasized that the presented data corroborate the application of Hf isotopes for geological evolution and characterization of magmatic sources. The high abundances of Hf in the zircon grains allow to preserve the isotopic signatures of its crystallization from magmatic sources, allowing to characterize the isotopic signatures of the reservoir (s) that gave origin to that rocks, and in case studies of paleoclimate and paleoceanographic records and/or of sedimentary basins evolution, it allows to identify the origin of the sediments or temporal and spatial changes of the source of sedimentary particles. COMPOSIÇÃO ISOTÓPICA DE Lu, Hf e Yb ANALISADA POR LA-ICP-MS DOS MATERIAIS DE REFERÊNCIA “GJ-01”, “91.500” e “MUD TANK”: APLICAÇÃO DA GEOCRONOLOGIA Lu-Hf EM ZIRCÃO ResumoO método Lu-Hf tem sido utilizado para entender processos de formação e fontes de rochas magmáticas. Este artigo analisa a composição isotópica por LA-ICP-MS dos materiais de referência GJ-01, 91.500 e Mud Tank para investigar quão adequados eles são para a análise de zircônio através desta técnica. Os resultados mostram que os três zircões possuem composições homogêneas podendo ser usados com materiais de referência para as pesquizas referidas. Considerando que teores relativamente altos de Yb produzem interferência isobárica, os resultados deste trabalho mostraram que o Mud Tank é o melhor material de referência, uma vez que possui os menores valores deste elemento. O Mud Tank permite obter resultados mais confiáveis por requerer menor correção dos valores obtidos. Além disso, deve-se ressaltar que os dados apresentados corroboram a aplicação de isótopos de Hf para a evolução geológica e caracterização de fontes magmáticas. As altas abundâncias de Hf nos grãos de zircão permitem preservar as assinaturas isotópicas de sua cristalização a partir de fontes magmáticas, permitindo caracterizar as assinaturas isotópicas do (s) reservatório (s) que deram origem a essas rochas. Têm também utilidade em estudos de paleoclima e paleoceanográficos e/ou da evolução das bacias sedimentares, permitindo identificar a origem dos sedimentos ou mudanças temporais e espaciais da fonte das partículas sedimentares.

Abstract:
Research subject. The isotopic composition (Pb-Pb, Sm-Nd, Rb-Sr, Os/Os, Hf/Hf, 3 He/4 He, etc.) of magmatic complexes and ore-magmatic systems (OMS) of two ore clusters (Kupolsky and Ilirneysky) located in the subpolar Western Chukotka was studied. These ore clusters differ from each other both in their structural position and the age of their magmatic complexes, within which the largest deposits of Au-Ag type are known. Materials and methods. The Pb-Pb, Rb-Sr, SmNd, Re-Os, Lu-Hf, 3 He/4 He, 40Ar/36Ar and sulphur isotopic systems were studied at the VSEGEI centre for isotopic studies (St. Petersburg), as well as at the Institute of Geology, Geochemistry and Ore Deposits (IGEM, Moscow) and the Laboratory of Stable Isotopes of the Far Eastern Geological Institute (FEGI, Vladivostok). Re and Os were measured using an ELEMENT-2 inductively coupled plasma single-collector mass spectrometer. Sulphur isotopic ratios were measured using a Finnigan MAT 253 isotope mass spectrometer. Results and conclusions. On the basis of the isotope-geochemical data obtained, an assumption was made that various deep sources participated in the magma generation, and the differentiated composition of late melts may reflect the melting processes of the crust upper horizons. When comparing the data on the magmatism of the Ilirneysky and Kupolsky ore clusters, a different degree of crustal rock influence on melt generation was revealed. The Kupolsky ore cluster is characterised by a large influence of mantle sources in intraplate magmatism associated with ore formation processes. This is likely to have determined a greater amount of mineralisation in the Kupolsky cluster compared to the Ilirneysky ore cluster.

This contribution seeks to provide a summary of radiometric dating techniques that are currently applicable to Phanerozoic sedimentary deposits and therefore relevant to paleontologists. First we overview the assumptions necessary for radiometric dating and introduce isochrons and concordia diagrams as methods for calculating ages and evaluating isotope systematics. We then focus on the four most promising systems: U-Pb dating of carbonates, Re-Os dating of black shales, and U-Pb and Lu-Hf dating of phosphates. We review expected geochemical behavior of daughter and parent isotopes in the context of both marine and terrestrial depositional environments. A critical evaluation of previously published ages and potential directions for future work are provided.

Abstract:
Abstract Coupled zircon U-Pb age, trace-element, and Lu-Hf isotope analyses from central Sierra Nevada (eastern California, USA) metavolcanic strata reveal the expression of three Mesozoic arc flare-ups in the volcanic record over ∼150 m.y. of magmatic activity. Zircon εHf(i) values vary up to 20 epsilon units within individual samples and coeval sample populations but show no clear links with other geochemical indices, requiring both mixing and fractionation for arc magma genesis. Zircon compositions show repeated temporal trends across flare-ups: Hf isotopes spanning evolved to juvenile values converge to more juvenile compositions, middle rare earth element (MREE) depletion and heavy REE slopes increase during flare-up main phases, and highly variable U/Yb values converge to low values as flare-ups conclude. Despite pervasive contamination, juvenile source magmas dominate magmas erupted throughout the entirety of high-magma-addition episodes. Arc flare-ups thus represent ∼30 m.y. of increased mantle magma input that represents significant continental crust formation in Cordilleran arcs.

Abstract:
AbstractThe Neoproterozoic Hedmark Basin in the Caledonides of South Norway was formed at the western margin of the continent Baltica by rifting 750–600 Ma ago. The margin was destroyed in the Caledonian Orogeny and sedimentary basins translated eastwards. This study uses provenance analysis to map the crustal architecture of the pre-Caledonian SW Baltican margin. Conglomerate clasts and sandstones were sampled from submarine fan, alluvial fan and terrestrial glacigenic sedimentary rocks. Samples were analysed for U–Pb isotopes and clast samples additionally for Lu–Hf isotopes. The clasts are mainly granitesc. 960 Ma and 1680 Ma old, coeval with the Sveconorwegian Orogeny and formation of the Palaeoproterozoic Transscandinavian Igneous Belt (TIB). Mesoproterozoic (Sveconorwegian) ages are abundant in the western part of the basin, whereas Palaeoproterozoic ages are common in the east. Lu–Hf isotopes support crustally contaminated source for all clasts linking them to Fennoscandia. Detrital zircon ages of the sandstones can be matched with those from the granitic clasts except for ages within the range 1200–1500 Ma. These ages are typically found in the present-day Telemark, SW Norway. The sandstones and conglomerate clasts in the western part of the Hedmark Basin were sourced from the Sveconorwegian domain in the present SW Norway or its continuation to the present-day NW. The conglomerate clasts in the eastern part of the Hedmark Basin were sourced mainly from the TIB domain or its northwesterly continuation. The Hedmark Basin was initiated within the boundary of two domains in the basement: the TIB and the Sveconorwegian domains.

Ce travail de thèse présente des analyses isotopiques Lu-Hf par MC-ICP-MS combinées de zircons ignés et de roches totales d'une importante collection de granitoïdes archéens appartenant à la suite des Tonalite-Trondhjémite-Granodiorite (TTG) afin d'apporter un regard nouveau sur la croissance de la croûte continentale et tout particulièrement dans le début de l'histoire de la Terre. Nos données indiquent un bon accord général entre les zircons ignés, mesurés par ablation-laser et par solution, avec leurs roche-hôtes. Nous démontrons que le rapport Lu/Hf intégré dans le temps de la source mantellique des TTG est près de la valeur chondritique et n'a pas significativement changée au cours des 4 derniers milliards d'années. Par conséquent, les continents se sont formés à partir d'un matériel primitif non fractionné extrait du manteau profond par l'intermédiaire de panaches qui après fusion partielle ont laissés un résidu appauvri dans le manteau supérieur. Les cristaux de zircon extraits des TTG ont des compositions isotopiques en Hf cohérentes au sein d'une même population alors que le système U-Pb, dans les mêmes grains, est souvent perturbé résultant ainsi en l'obtention de valeurs d'εHf initial erronées. Ce problème est endémique aux cristaux de zircon détritiques archéens et en accord avec des résultats expérimentaux sur la mobilité préférentielle de l'Hf en fonction de celle de l'U et du Pb au sein du zircon. Nous suggérons que ce problème biaise l'enregistrement détritique archéen en faveur de valeurs d'εHf initial négatives qui contrastent avec les valeurs obtenues pour les TTG mais peuvent être expliquées par l'utilisation d'âges 207Pb/206Pb non-magmatiques. Si l'on considère les cristaux de zircon de Jack Hills au vu de ces résultats, la source des continents serait restée inchangée depuis 4,3 Ga.

As sub-bacias Rincón Blanco e Cerro Puntudo são depocentros pertencente à parte norte da Bacia de Cuyo, que está exposta em um terreno alóctone da Pre- Cordilheira, Andes Centrais, Argentina. Este terreno é descrito como parte do Supercontinente Laurentia, que foi adicionado ao protomargin Gondwana durante o Oroviciano. A bacia, que é um rifte Triássico, foi preenchida predominantemente de sedimentos clásticos e material vulcânico, vulcanclástico e piroclástico em ambiente continental, e é composta de vários meio-grabens assimétricos conectados por zonas de acomodação. Análises isotópicas de UPb e Lu-Hf em zircão foram realizadas nas unidades do embasamento, rochas vulcanoclásticas rochas e tufos de ambas as sub-bacias triássicas. O embasamento, representado por rochas vulcânicas andesíticas, foi datado em 269,9 ± 2,9 Ma com idades modelo de Hf de 1,34 a 1,60 bilhões de anos (Ga). As rochas vulcanoclásticas são compostas por zircões com idades de 238 a 1433 milhões de anos (Ma), com moda principal no Permiano-Triássico e Esteniano (1,0 a 1,2 Ga). Riolito e tufos triássicos formaram-se entre 246 e 230 Ma e têm idades modelo Hf variando de 1,02 a 1,50 Ga. Assim, as rochas vulcanoclásticas presentes apresentam dominantemente idades mesoproterozóicas, as quais são correlacionados ao Evento Grenviliano. Alguns grãos de zircão mostram idades modelo Hf paleoproterozóicas, que são interpretadas como sugestiva proveniência do Supercontinente Gondwana. A presença de idades mesoproterozoica dominante sugere que o magmatismo ácido associado a Bacia do Cuyo e o próprio Terreno Alóctono Cuyano tenha um embasamente Grenviliano.
The sub-basins Rincón Blanco and Cerro Puntudo are depocenter belonging to the northern part of the Cuyo Basin, exposed in an allochthonous terrane of Laurentia that was added to the Gondwana protomargin and now exposed in the Precordillera Argentina. The rift basin was filled predominantly of pyroclastic and continental clastic sediments, and is composed of many asymmetric grabens half-linked by accommodation zones. U-Pb and Lu-Hf zircon isotope analyses were carried out in the basement units and volcanoclastic rocks and tuffs of both Triassic sub-basins. Basement rocks were dated at 269.9±2.9 Ma with Hf model ages 1.34 to 1.60 Ga. The volcanoclastic rocks contain zircons crystallized from 238 Ma to 1433 Ma with main peak at Permian-Triassic and Stenian (1.0 to 1.2 Ga). The Triassic rhyolite and tuffs formed between 246 and 230 Ma and have Hf model ages ranging from 1.02 to 1.50 Ga. Indeed, the volcanoclastic rocks present dominant Mesoproterozoic ages, mostly correlated to the Grenvillian. Some zircon grains show Hf Paleoproterozoic model ages which are interpreted to be part of Gondwana cratonic areas. The presence of dominant Mesoproteorzoic favored the hypotheses of a Grevillian basement for the related acid magmatism of the Cuyo Basin and allocthonous Cuyan Terrane.

Abstract:
Le travail de thèse reporté dans ce manuscrit se focalise sur la reconnaissance ainsi que l'expression des processus de différenciation crustale à l'Archéen. Cet éon représente à lui tout seul 1/3 des temps géologiques, et se caractérise notamment par des lithologies diagnostiques, ainsi que des contextes géodynamiques complexes. La majorité des études sont portées sur l’investigation des phases alumineuses qui permettent de contraindre précisément les événements métamorphiques au-cours d’une géodynamique d’épaississement crustal. Toutefois, ces phases alumineuses représentent rarement plus de 10% des terrains archéens, alors qu’ils sont faits à plus de 75% de gneiss orthodérivés. L'étude qui suit est une caractérisation du complexe de gneiss gris composite de la marge Nord du craton archéen du Kaapvaal en Afrique du Sud. Les résultats produits durant cette investigation ont amené à plusieurs conclusions importantes au regard de la géodynamique archéenne. L'étude isotopique U-Pb/Lu-Hf sur zircon couplée à des analyses pétro-métamorphiques montre que la construction d’un complexe de gneiss gris composite correspond à une géodynamique prolongée dans le temps, accomplie au-travers de processus de différenciations crustales internes à la Zone accrétée, 1.e. le bloc crustal évolue en système thermodynamiquement fermé. Les complexes de gneiss gris ne sont que modérément étudiés toutefois, les informations contenues dans ces lithologies apparaissent complémentaires avec celles obtenues par les études métamorphiques sur les lithologies alumineuses. Il est donc nécessaire d'approfondir ce type d’investigations afin de mieux contraindre les modèles géodynamiques archéens
The PhD work presented in this manuscript focuses on the recognition and the manifestation of Archean crustal differentiation processes. The Archean eon which represents 1/3 of the geological record is featured by both lithologies unrecognized in younger eons and cryptic geodynamics. Most of investigations concentrate on the characterisation of aluminium-rich lithologies that allow an accurate determination of the pressure-temperature evolution underwent by crustal materials during crustal thickening geodynamics. However, aluminium-rich lithologies - mainly represented by metasediments - account for only 10% on average of Archean terranes whereas orthoderived gneisses - which also testify for crustal differentiation processes - form around 75% of these terranes. The following contribution depicts an Archean composite grey gneiss complex located at the northern edge of the Kaapvaal craton is South Africa. Results carried out during this PhD study have major consequences on Archean geodynamics. The zircon U-Pb/Lu-Hf isotope Investigation coupled with strong petro-metamorphic observations show that composite grey gneiss complexes may be built over a protracted time span, achieved through self-refinement of crustal materials, i.e. the crustal block evolved in a thermodynamically closed system. Grey gneiss compiexes are only moderately investigated even though information enclosed in these lithologies is complementary with those from aluminium-rich rocks. Therefore, deeper investigations of these geological objects must be a central scope in order to improve the knowledge of the Archean eon and appears necessary for the building of even more realistic geotectonic models

Abstract:
Southeastern Australia, part of the Phanerozoic Tasmanides, is a unique region where large amounts of granite (~30% of the surface rocks) with a very wide range of compositions (S-, I- and A-types) were intruded in the Ordovician to Triassic. The distinctive Carboniferous granites in the Lachlan Fold Belt (LFB) are transitional in time and space between the major magmatic episodes of the LFB and New England Orogen (NEO). There was a contemporaneous continental-arc developed in the NEO, products of which became the dominant source for the NEO Early Permian S-type granites. The Carboniferous granites in the LFB have characteristic compositions (K, Sr and LILE-enrichment and Y-depletion) similar to the Late Permian I-type granites (and to the S-type granites in part) in the NEO. The in situ microanalyses of zircon (both melt-precipitated and inherited; over 1280 grains analysed from 31 samples) from those granites, using SIMS and LA-MC-ICPMS, show that the Carboniferous magmatism in the LFB was closely related to the tectonic movement of the NEO, and that the granites with similar compositions which transect the two contrasting orogens had similar source compositions. From the isotopic compositions of zircon from the Carboniferous granites in the LFB, it is evident that the granites are distributed in zones of different ages and Hf and O isotopic compositions. The zones are approximately parallel to the NEO boundary. It is likely that tectonic activity related to the NEO triggered the production of the Carboniferous magmas and their source rocks. The new data demonstrate, however, that the Carboniferous granites were not directly related to the contemporaneous arc volcanism in the NEO. The source rocks of the Carboniferous granites in each zone consisted of different mixtures between a mantle-like underplate and relatively mature pre-existing lower crust during the Devonian. The distinctive O isotopic compositions of inherited zircon from the NEO S-type granites demonstrate that the source rock of the granites was a Carboniferous arc-related volcanogenic sedimentary pile which included increased amounts of Devonian volcanogenic sediments with time. The age difference between the inherited and melt-precipitated zircon indicates rapid crustal recycling to produce the peraluminous magmas within 15 Ma of source rock deposition. The I-type Moonbi Supersuite granites were generated from the underplate with a minor crustal contribution. As all the studied NEO granites have remarkably similar initial Hf isotopic compositions, the components comprising most of the NEO, including sediments, are similarly radiogenic, probably due to the geologic processes operating in the young accretionary orogen. Combining all the results of U-Pb dating and Hf and O isotopic analyses of zircon from the Carboniferous granites in the LFB and the Permian I- and S-type granites in the NEO, it is also inferred that the source rocks of the studied granites had similar isotopic compositions. This suggests a potential petrogenetic link between the granites across the two orogens. From a source composition similar to that of the most primitive LCG, three igneous components have evolved in different ways depending on the nature of the crustal materials incorporated into each component.

The Jasper Gorge Formation of the Victoria Basin and Jamison Sandstone of the Beetaloo Sub-basin are also thought to be corollaries. These formations are all constrained to being younger than ca. 1.0 Ga by U-Pb detrital zircon studies. However, in all cases, this is suspected to considerably pre-date the timing of deposition. Here, we present new U-Pb and Hf data from seven samples of the Amadeus Basin Heavitree Formation to a) better constrain the age of the Heavitree Formation, b) investigate the spatial variation in provenance of the Heavitree Formation, and, c) compare it with other ‘Supersequence 1’ quartzites from the wider Centralian Superbasin.

This item is only available electronically.
The Ongole Domain, situated in the southern Eastern Ghats Belt, exposes an assemblage of granulite facies metasedimentary and metaigneous rocks that preserve fundamental evidence for the Paleoproterozoic-Mesoproterozoic reconstruction of the supercontinent Nuna. LA-ICP-MS detrital zircon data from metasedimentary rocks constrain the timing of deposition for the sedimentary precursors, to between ca. 1850-1750 Ma. Lu-Hf isotopic data from detrital zircons provide a wide range of εHf values between -18 and +10, and TDM of ca. 3.2- 2.6 Ga. The Mesoarchean to Paleoproterozoic detrital components display geochemical similarities with the Napier Complex, the North Australian Craton and to a lesser extent, the North China Craton. U-Pb zircon and monazite geochronology have identified three episodes of metamorphism in the Ongole Domain; at ca. 1750, 1640 and 1590 Ma. Peak P-T estimates of 900 - 910°C and 9 - 9.2 kbar are calculated for metamorphism associated with collisional orogenesis, between ca. 1640-1590 Ma. Ti-in-zircon thermometry independently constrains the UHT conditions, yielding estimates of 935 ± 55°C. U-Pb geochronology and trace element analysis of zircon grains from metaigneous rocks confirm syn-tectonic magmatism occurred in the Ongole Domain between ca. 1640-1570 Ma. The results provide support for paleogeographic reconstructions that link the southern Eastern Ghats Belt and East Antarctica during the late Paleoproterozoic

Abstract:
The structural lineament mapping of southern India along withgeological, geochronological datasets help in redefining the Precambrian crustal blocks.The newly proposed Kumta and Mercara suture zones welding Archean crustal blocks in western peninsular India offer critical insights into the crustal evolution of Gondwana. The Kumta suturemainly consists of schistose rocks including quartz-phengite, garnet-biotite, chlorite, fuchsite and marble, whereas the Mercara suture contains mylonitic quartzo-feldspathic gneiss, garnet-kyanite-sillimanite gneiss, calc-silicate granulite and metagabbro. Metamorphic pressure-temperature estimations (Kumta suture: 11-18 kbar at 790-550oC; Mercara suture: 13 kbar at 825oC) suggest that, the sediments have undergone subduction to greater depths. The K-Ar age of biotite, phengite and U-Pb dating of zircon yields consistent metamorphic age of 1100-1400 Ma. In situ zircon 176Lu/177Hf isotope analysis shows wide range of εHf (t) values indicating the protolith sediments were derived from Paleo-Neoarchean juvenile crust that mixed with recycled older crust. The Bondla ultramafic-gabbro complex, northwest of the Kumta suture contains basalt, dolerite, gabbro, serpentinite, chromitite, peridotite and chromian spinel chemistry suggests evolution in a supra-subduction zone arc tectonic setting.The Sirsi shelf towards east of the Kumta suture, contains weakly deformed sedimentary rocks (limestone, shale, banded iron formations, greywacke, sandstone and quartzite) unconformable on relatively high-grade ca. 2571 Ma gneisses of the Dharwar craton. The Karwar block to the west is composed of weakly metamorphosedca. 3200 Ma tonalite-trondhjemite-granodiorite (TTG) with enclaves of amphibolite. In situ zircon 176Lu/177Hf isotope analysis and whole-rock 143Nd/144Nd isotopic analysis of TTGs show positive εHf and εNd values indicating ca. 3200 Ma juvenile crust. The Coorg block consists of ca. 3200 Ma charnockite, mafic granulites, hornblende-biotite gneiss, garnet-hornblende gabbro and anorthosite.In situ zircon 176Lu/177Hf isotope analysis indicates source as mixture of juvenile crust and older recycled crustal materials. Synthesis of the above results with published data suggests that Kumta and Mercara suture zones incorporate Paleoarchean to Mesoproterozoic sedimentssubjected to high-pressure metamorphism in the late Mesoproterozoic. Metamorphic P-T estimations of mafic granulite and U-Pb zircon geochronology of pelitic gneisses from Betsimisaraka suture zone, Madagascar suggests the rocks were underwent metamorphism at c. 24 kbar and c. 780°C during Mesoproterozoic suturing of Antongil-Masora blocks with the Antananarivo block.From the integration of above results with the new geophysical results and published data Mesoproterozoic Kumta-Mercara suture is interpreted as eastern extension of the Mesoproterozoic Betsimisaraka suture of Madagascar into western India.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Paleocene Lower Wilcox Group sedimentation rates are three times the Cenozoic average for the Gulf of Mexico region and are attributed to Laramide tectonism within the Laramide–Rocky Mountains region. These increased rates likely represent the erosion of easily weathered Phanerozoic strata that blanketed the Laramide-age basement-cored uplifts. Geologic observations and U-Pb geochronology are not sufficient to fully address this hypothesis alone, so we conducted 439 Lu-Hf isotopic analyses on detrital zircons from eight samples from the San Juan Basin and five samples from the Gulf of Mexico Basin. Focusing on the zircons younger than 300 Ma allowed us to make direct comparisons to the eight principal components that comprise the North American Cordilleran magmatic arc: (1) Coast Mountains batholith; (2) North Cascades Range; (3) Idaho batholith; (4) Sierra Nevada batholith; (5) Laramide porphyry copper province; (6) Transverse Ranges; (7) Peninsular Ranges; and (8) Sierra Madre Occidental. The εHf(t) results range from +8.9 to –27.0 for the San Juan Basin samples and from +13.0 to –26.6 for the Gulf of Mexico samples. Using the San Juan Basin samples as a proxy for the eroded Mesozoic cover that was shed from the Laramide uplifts, we show that much of the sediment entering the Gulf of Mexico through the Houston and Mississippi embayments during the late Paleocene was derived from reworked cover from the greater Laramide–Rocky Mountains region. However, the Gulf of Mexico samples also include a distinct juvenile suite (εHf[t] ranging from +13 to +5) of zircons ranging in age from ca. 220 to 55 Ma that we traced to the Coast Mountains batholith in British Columbia, Canada. This transcontinental connection indicates an extension to the headwaters of the previously defined paleo-Mississippi drainage basin from ca. 58 to 56 Ma. Therefore, we propose a through-going fluvial system (referred to here as the “Coast Mountains River”) that was routed from the Coast Mountains batholith to the Gulf of Mexico. This expands the previously defined paleo-Mississippi drainage basin area by an estimated 280,000 km2. Our comprehensive Hf isotopic compilation of the North American Cordilleran magmatic arc also provides a benchmark εHf(t) versus U-Pb age plot, which can be used to determine provenance of detrital zircons (85–50 Ma) at the scale of specific region(s) within the Cordillera based on their εHf(t) values.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Avalonia and Ganderia are composite microcontinental fragments in the northern Appalachian orogen likely derived from Gondwanan sources. Avalonia includes numerous Neoproterozoic magmatic arc sequences that represent protracted and episodic subduction-related magmatism before deposition of an Ediacaran–Ordovician cover sequence of mainly siliciclastic rocks. We characterized the nature of the basement on which these arcs were constructed using zircon grains from arc-related magmatic rocks in Atlantic Canada that were analyzed for their Lu-Hf isotope composition. The majority of zircon grains from Avalonia are characterized by initial 176Hf/177Hf values that are more radiogenic than chondritic uniform reservoir, and calculated crust formation Hf TDM (i.e., depleted mantle) model ages range from 1.2 to 0.8 Ga. These data contrast with those from Ganderia, which show typically positive initial εHf values and Hf TDM model ages that imply magmatism was derived by melting of crustal sources with diverse ages ranging from ca. 1.8 to 1.0 Ga. The positive distribution of initial εHf values along with the pattern of Hf TDM model ages provide a clear record of two distinct subduction systems. Cryogenian–Ediacaran magmatism is interpreted to have resulted from reworking of an evolved Mesoproterozoic crustal component in a long-lived, subduction-dominated accretionary margin along the margin of northern Amazonia. A change in Hf isotope trajectory during the Ediacaran implies a greater contribution of isotopically evolved material consistent with an arc-arc–style collision of Ganderia with Avalonia. The shallow-sloping Hf isotopic pattern for Paleozoic Ganderian magmatism remains continuous for ~200 m.y., consistent with tectonic models of subduction in the Iapetus and Rheic Oceans and episodic accretion of juvenile crustal terranes to Laurentia.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Southeastern New England is largely composed of Ediacaran granitoid and related volcanic rocks formed during the main phase of arc-related magmatism recorded in West Avalonian lithotectonic assemblages extending through Atlantic Canada to eastern Newfoundland. In situ Lu-Hf analyses presented here for zircons from the Dedham, Milford, and Esmond Granites and from the Lynn-Mattapan volcanic complex show a restricted range of εHf values (+2 to +5) and associated Hf-TDM model ages of 1.3–0.9 Ga, assuming felsic crustal sources. The most evolved granites within this suite lie in a belt north and west of the Boston Basin, whereas upfaulted granites on the south, as well as the slightly younger volcanic units, show more juvenile Hf isotopic compositions. Similar inferences have been drawn from previously published Sm-Nd isotopic signatures for several of the same plutons. Collectively, the isotopic compositions and high-precision U-Pb geochronological constraints now available for southeastern New England differ in important respects from patterns in the Mira terrane of Cape Breton Island or the Newfoundland Avalon zone, but they closely resemble those documented in the Cobequid and Antigonish Highlands of mainland Nova Scotia and New Brunswick’s Caledonia terrane. Particularly significant features are similarities between the younger than 912 Ma Westboro Formation in New England and the younger than 945 Ma Gamble Brook Formation in the Cobequid Highlands, both of which yield detrital zircon age spectra consistent with sources on the Timanide margin of Baltica. This relationship provides the starting point for a recent model in which episodic West Avalonian arc magmatism began along the Tonian margin of Baltica and terminated during diachronous late Ediacaran arc-arc collision with the Ganderian margin of Gondwana.

Abstract:
The Kipawa rare-earth element (REE) deposit is located in the Parautochton zone of the Grenville Province 55 km south of the boundary with the Superior Province. The deposit is part of the Kipawa syenite complex of peralkaline syenites, gneisses, and amphibolites that are intercalated with calc-silicate rocks and marbles overlain by a peralkaline gneissic granite. The REE deposit is principally composed of eudialyte, mosandrite and britholite, and less abundant minerals such as xenotime, monazite or euxenite. The Kipawa Complex outcrops as a series of thin, folded sheet imbricates located between regional metasediments, suggesting a regional tectonic control. Several hypotheses for the origin of the complex have been suggested: crustal contamination of mantle-derived magmas, crustal melting, fluid alteration, metamorphism, and hydrothermal activity. Our objective is to characterize the mineralogical, geochemical, and isotopic composition of the Kipawa complex in order to improve our understanding of the formation and the post-formation processes, and the age of the complex. The complex has been deformed and metamorphosed with evidence of melting-recrystallization textures among REE and Zr rich magmatic and post magmatic minerals. Major and trace element geochemistry obtained by ICP-MS suggest that syenites, granites and monzonite of the complex have within-plate A2 type anorogenic signatures, and our analyses indicate a strong crustal signature based on TIMS whole rock Nd isotopes. We have analyzed zircon grains by SEM, EPMA, ICP-MS and MC-ICP-MS coupled with laser ablation (Lu-Hf). Initial isotopic results also support a strong crustal signature. Taken together, these results suggest that alkaline magmas of the Kipawa complex/deposit could have formed by partial melting of the mantle followed by strong crustal contamination or by melting of metasomatized continental crust. These processes and origins strongly differ compare to most alkaline complexes in the world. Additional TIMS and LA-MC-ICP-MS analyses are planned to investigate whether all lithologies share the same strong crustal signature.
