Zircon ages and Hf isotopic compositions of Permian and Triassic A-type granites from central Inner Mongolia and their significance for late Palaeozoic and early Mesozoic evolution of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt
INTERNATIONAL GEOLOGY REVIEW(2016)
摘要
This work presents zircon ages and Hf-in-zircon isotopic data for Permian and Triassic A-type granitoids and reviews the evolution of central Inner Mongolia, China, during the early Permian and Late Triassic. SHRIMP U-Pb dating of zircons of peralkaline granites yielded Pb-206/U-238 ages of 294 +/- 4Ma and 293 +/- 9Ma that reflect the time of Permian magmatism. Zircon ages were also obtained for Late Triassic granites (226 +/- 4Ma, 224 +/- 4Ma). Our results, in combination with published zircon ages and geochemical data, document distinct magmatic episodes in central Inner Mongolia. The Permian peralkaline granites show typical geochemical features of A-type granites, which also have highly positive zircon epsilon(Hf(t)) values (+4.9 - +17.1), indicating a significant contribution of an isotopically depleted source, likely formed from mantle-derived magmas. Late Triassic A-type granitoids, however, in central Inner Mongolia show large variations and mostly positive in zircon epsilon(Hf(t)) values (-1.3 - +13.5), suggesting derivation from a mixture of crust and mantle or metasomatized lithospheric mantle with crustal contamination. The geochemical characteristics of the Permian peralkaline granites and Late Triassic A-type granitoids are consistent with a post-collisional setting and were likely related to asthenosphere upwelling during the evolution of the Northern Block and Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB).
