Paleozoic Tectonic Switch in the North Qinling Orogenic Belt: Constraints from the Paleozoic Granites from the Northern Qinling Migmatite Terrane
Acta Geologica Sinica (English Edition)(2023)
摘要
The variations in source rocks and melting conditions of granites can provide essential clues for the crustal magmatic response in orogenic process. Based on geochronology, whole-rock and mineral chemistry, this paper reveals two different granites in the Northern Qinling migmatite complex, which reveal obvious differences in source region and melting condition. The older granodiorite (402 & PLUSMN; 0.8 Ma) displays typical Na-rich adakite affinity, i.e., high Na2O/K2O (2.04 to 2.64) and Sr/Y (96 to 117) ratios, they have relative evolved isotopic compositions (& epsilon;(Nd)(t) = -0.52 to -0.04; zircon & epsilon;(Hf)(t) = -0.06 to +7.78). The younger leucogranite (371 & PLUSMN; 2 Ma) displays higher SiO2 (72.32 to 73.45 wt%), lower (TFeO + MgO + CaO + TiO2) contents (<2 wt%) and depleted Sr-Nd-Hf isotopic compositions (i.e., & epsilon;(Nd)(t) = +2.6 to +3.0; zircon & epsilon;(Hf)(t) = +5.94 to +14.12), as well as high 10000 x Ga/Al and TFeO/MgO ratios, indicating that they represent highly fractionated I-type granites that derived from melting of juvenile crust. The variations in source rocks and melting condition of the two granites indicating a tectonic switch from compression to extension in 400 to 370 Ma, this switch is later than that in the eastern section of the North Qinling, indicating a scissor collision process between the South Qinling and North China Craton (NCC) in Devonian era.
