Abstract:
Late Permian monzogranite of Hanggale is characterized by rich alkali metals, poor MgO, TFeO and CaO, enrichment of LREE, and weak negative Eu anomalies, implying an I-type granite. The depletion of Nb, Sr, P, Ti elements shows that such an arc granite has features of intrusive rocks related to subduction. In the R1-R2 diagram, most of the samples are concentrated along the boundary between the pre-collision granite area and the post-collision granite area. In the Nb-Y diagram, the samples fall into the area of the volcanic arc-syncollisional granite. In the Rb-(Y+Nb)diagram, the samples lie in the area of volcanic arc granite. In the Rb-Hf-Ta diagram, the samples all fall into the arc system. High Th/U ratios in zircon of main rocks show characteristics of magmatic zircons; high total REE, heavy REE enrichment and left-oblique curves in the chondrite-normalized diagram are consistent with general characteristics of magmatic zircon distribution. LA-ICP-MS zircon U-Pb dating shows that its age is 253.5±7.9Ma. The Late Permian monzogranite of Hanggale was a pre-collisional volcanic arc granite, and Hanggale area was a volcanic arc that belonged to active continental margin in Late Permian.
