    Origin of postcollisional magmatic rocks in the Dabie orogen Implications for crust-mantle interaction and crustal architecture [查看] Zi-FuZhaoYong-FeiZhengChun-ShengWeiFu-YuanWu
    Zircon Hf and whole-rock Sr–Nd isotopic compositions were determined for postcollisional mafic–ultramafic and felsic intrusive rocks in the Dabie orogen. The results provide not only insights into the character of their source rocks and the nature of crust–mantle interaction, but also constraints on the crustal architecture of continental collision orogen. SHRIMP zircon U–Pb dating gave concordant ages of 121±6 to 131±2 Ma for the bimodal intrusives. Zircon Hf isotope analyses gave negative εHf(t) values of−26.3±0.6 to−7.0±0.5 for the mafic–ultramafic rocks, with two-stage Hf model ages of 1.62 to 2.83 Ga. Zircons from felsic granitoids also gave negative εHf(t) values of −31.6±0.5 to −16.9±0.9 with two-stage Hf model ages of 2.25 to 3.16 Ga.Both the mafic–ultramafic and felsic rocks have high initial 87Sr/86Sr raios of 0.7065 to 0.7084 and very low εNd(t) values of −21.7 to −11.7 for whole-rock. The crust-like geochemical signatures in the mafic– ultramafic rocks suggest their derivation from partialmelting of an orogenic lithospheric mantle source that is enriched in radiogenic isotopes as well as incompatible trace elements such as LILE and LREE. It would be generated by reaction of the overlying subcontinental lithospheric mantle (SCLM) wedge peridotite with the felsic melt derived from the subducted continental crust during the continental collision. Therefore, these postcollisional mafic–ultramafic rocks record recycling of the subducted continental crust and consequent crust–mantle interaction in the continental subduction zone. The granitoids have Hf model ages as old as Paleoarchean, which cannot be derived from partial melting of surrounding orthogneisses alone, but requires involvement of more ancient Archean crust in their source region. Thus, their source represents a mixture of crustal rocks from Paleoproterozoic and Paleoarchean basement. In combination of the present and previous studies, the Dabie orogen is suggested to have a three-layer crustal structure prior to the postcollisional magmatism: Central Dabie in the upper with dominantly young Hf model ages of late Mesoproterozoic to Neoproterozoic, North Dabie in the middle with dominantly middle Paleoproterozoic Hf model ages, and the source region of the postcollisional granitoids in the lower with Paleoproterozoic to Paleoarchean Hf model ages.
    Zircon U-Pb ages, Hf and O isotopes constrain the crustal architecture of the ultrahigh-pressure Dabie orogen in China [查看] Zi-FuZhaoYong-FeiZhengChun-ShengWeiFu-KunChenXiaomingLiuFu-YuanWu
    The crustal structure of the Dabie orogen was reconstructed by a combined study of U–Pb ages, Hf and O isotope compositions of zircons from granitic gneiss from North Dabie, the largest lithotectonic unit in the orogen. The results were deciphered from metamorphic history to protolith origin with respect to continental subduction and exhumation. Zircon U–Pb dating provides consistent ages of 751±7 Ma for protolith crystallization, and two group ages of 213±4 to 245±17 Ma and 126±4 to 131±36 Ma for regional metamorphism. Majority of zircon Hf isotope analyses displays negative εHf(t) values of −5.1 to −2.9 with crust Hf model ages of 1.84 to 1.99 Ga, indicating protolith origin from reworking of middle Paleoproterozoic crust. The remaining analyses exhibit positive εHf(t) values of 5.3 to 14.5 with mantle Hf model ages of 0.74 to 1.11 Ga, suggesting prompt reworking of Late Mesoproterozoic to Early Neoproterozoic juvenile crust. Zircon O isotope analyses yield δ18O values of −3.26 to 2.79‰, indicating differential involvement of meteoric water in protolith magma by remelting of hydrothermally altered low δ18O rocks. North Dabie shares the same age of Neoproterozoic low δ18O protolith with Central Dabie experiencing the Triassic UHP metamorphism, but it was significantly reworked at Early Cretaceous in association with contemporaneous magma emplacement.The Rodinia breakup at about 750 Ma would lead to not only the reworking of juvenile crust in an active rift zone for bimodal protolith of Central Dabie, but also reworking of ancient crust in an arc-continent collision zone for the North Dabie protolith. The spatial difference in the metamorphic age (Triassic vs. Cretaceous) between the northern and southern parts of North Dabie suggests intra-crustal detachment during the continental subduction. Furthermore, the Dabie orogen would have a three-layer structure prior to the Early Cretaceous magmatism: Central Dabie in the upper, North Dabie in the middle, and the source region of Cretaceous magmas in the lower.
