青藏高原西北缘中新世晚期A型花岗岩的特征及意义

    Characteristics of late Miocene A-type granite on the northwestern margin of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and its significance.

    • 摘要: 摘要:在阿克萨依湖幅1∶25万区域地质调查中,于青藏高原西北缘的西昆仑山南坡巴颜喀拉盆地发现了多个小型黑云母二长花岗岩体。对其中规模较大的一个岩体的岩石地球化学研究结果显示,该岩体富集大离子亲石元素和轻稀土元素,亏损高场强元素和重稀土元素,δEu负异常,无Nb的亏损,属壳幔混合的偏铝质A2(PA)型花岗岩。TIMS法单颗粒锆石U-Pb年龄测定获得10.0Ma±0.1Ma的年龄值(MSWD=0.66),表明该岩体为中新世晚期岩浆活动的产物。该岩体可能是中新世晚期青藏高原后造山阶段岩石圈发生拆沉作用形成的,就位于阿尔金巨型走滑断裂系的拉张区域,是阿尔金巨型走滑断裂系强烈活动阶段的反映,对青藏高原地质构造演化和高原隆升的研究可能具有重要意义。

       

      Abstract: Abstract: During 1∶250000 regional geological survey of the Aksay(Aksayqin) Lake Sheet, the authors found several small biotite monzogranite bodies in the Bayan Har basin at the south slope of the West Kunlun Mountains on the northwestern margin of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Geochemical research on one larger rock body of them indicates that it consists of metaluminous A2 (PA)-type granite, enriched in LREE and LILE and depleted in HREE and HFS, with a negative δEu anomaly but no depletion of Nd. TIMS single-zircon U-Pb dating gave an age of 10.0±0.1 Ma (MSWD=0.66) for the rock, indicating that the rock is the product of late Miocene magmatism. It may have formed by lithospheric delamination in the late Miocene post-orogenic stage and magma was emplaced in an extensional zone of the gigantic Altyn Tagh strike-slip fault system, which was the manifestation of the stage of strong activity of the Altyn Tagh strike-slip fault system. This discovery has great significance for the study of the tectonic evolution and uplift of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in this area.
