Pb-Pb Isotopic and X-ray Tomographic Constraints on the Origin of Chondrules

Charles, Christopher 02 August 2013 (has links)
207Pb*/206Pb* chronometry was used to obtain the ages of Ca,Al-rich inclusions (CAIs) and chondrules found in ancient meteorites. Assuming a 238U/235U=137.88, Pb/Pb ages of chondrules in NWA801 (a CR2 meteorite) are 4564.6±1.0 Ma, chondrules in Mokoia (a CV3 chondrite) are 4564.2±1.1Ma, and CAIs in Mokoia are 4567.9±5.4 Ma. The Pb/Pb age of NWA801 chondrules is concordant with 26Al/26Mg ages of CR chondrules. However if a 238U/235U < 137.88 is used, the age for NWA801 chondrules becomes younger by ~1Ma and discordant with 26Al/26Mg ages of CR chondrules. This suggests either a discrepancy with the U compositions or the initial Mg isotopic compositions of NWA801 chondrules. The shapes of NWA801 chondrules, and blebs of FeNi metal in the meteorite matrix, were further studied by 3D X-ray micro-computed tomography (CT). Most chondrules (92%) were ‘armoured’ with one discontinuous layer of FeNi metal. Two layers of FeNi metal (one on the exterior and one concentric through the interior separated by silicate) were rare <8%. Chondrules and matrix blebs occur as oblates, prolate, spheres and triaxial spheroids. It is proposed that the shapes were made free-floating in the nebula likely by flash-melting precursors into molten droplets that were vibrating as harmonic oscillators that ‘froze-in’ their shapes during cooling. Parent-body metamorphism and shock are not likely processes affecting the matrix-bleb and chondrule shapes. Chondrules with ≥2 FeNi metal layers were likely formed by mergers and not by successive deposition and annealing of metal in multiple flash-melting events. Attempts to obtain 207Pb*/206Pb* ages from chondrules and CAIs by thermal extraction (TE)- TIMS were unsuccessful. However LA-ICP-MS was shown to be useful for rapidly determining Pb isotopic trends in meteorites and unknown objects. In particular, it was shown that 137La (T1/2=60ky) should be detectable in recently fallen meteorites using LaF−4 to suppress the 137Ba isobar during tandem accelerator mass spectrometry combined with a novel instrumental technique for isobar separation.

Age, geochemistry, and fluid characteristics of the MAX porphyry Mo deposit, southeast British Columbia

Lawley, Christopher John Michael 11 1900 (has links)
MAX is a porphyry Mo deposit located near Trout Lake village in southeastern British Columbia. Mo mineralization is hosted by variably-altered calc-alkaline granodiorite dikes. Quartz veins have been subdivided into a paragenetic sequence based on vein style and crosscutting relationships. Post-magmatic Pb-Zn-Ag-bearing veins crosscut Mo-bearing veins. Similarities in fluid chemistry from both vein types suggest a genetic link between porphyry Mo mineralization and base-metal veins. Three molybdenite samples were collected from early and late Mo-bearing veins for Re-Os dating to constrain the timing of Mo-mineralizing events within the paragenetic sequence. All three dates overlap within analytical error, and yield a weighted average age of 80.3 ± 0.2 Ma. These dates are in excellent agreement with two 206Pb/238U weighted-average ages of the Trout Lake stock at 80.2 ± 1.0 Ma and 80.9 ± 1.6 Ma, indicating that the magmatic and hydrothermal ore-forming events were coeval and cogenetic.

The timing and source of gold-bearing fluids in the Laverton Greenstone Belt, Yilgarn Craton, with emphasis on the Wallaby gold deposit

Salier, Brock Peter January 2004 (has links)
[Truncated abstract] The Laverton Greenstone Belt (LGB), located in the northeastern part of the Eastern Goldfields Province (EGP) of the Yilgarn Craton, Western Australia, has a total contained gold endowment of over 690t. An important feature of the gold deposits in the LGB is their close spatial association with granitoids, with many gold deposits located adjacent to, or hosted by, granitoids. Recently-proposed genetic models for Archaean orogenic gold deposits have emphasised the role of granitoids in the formation of ore-deposits, but differ significantly in the nature of that role. Some models suggest that the granitoids are a source of ore-fluids and solutes, whereas others suggest that granitoids exert an important structural control on gold mineralisation. Such competing genetic models for gold mineralisation variably propose either a proximal-magmatic or distal-metamorphic, or less commonly distal-magmatic, source for goldbearing fluids, or mixing of fluids from multiple sources. Isotope geochemistry and geochronological studies are used to constrain the source and timing of auriferous fluids at nine gold deposits in the LGB in an attempt to differentiate between conflicting genetic models. To overcome the lack of detailed deposit-scale geological constraints inherent to any regional study, hypotheses generated from regional datasets are tested in a detailed case-study of the Wallaby gold deposit. The Pb-isotope compositions of ore-related sulphides from deposits in the LGB plot along the line representing crustal-Pb in the Norseman-Wiluna Belt of the EGP, with individual deposits clustering with other nearby deposits based on their geographic location. This trend is similar to that recorded in the Kalgoorlie-Norseman region in the southern EGP, and is consistent with a basement Pb reservoir for gold-bearing fluids. As such, data are consistent with a similar fluid source for all gold deposits. The Nd and Sr isotopic composition of goldrelated scheelite in the LGB clusters very tightly. The inferred ore-fluid composition has a slightly positive εNd, similar to ore fluids at other gold deposits in the EGP for which a proximal magmatic source is highly improbable. As such, Sr and Nd data are consistent with a similar fluid source for the gold deposits analysed in the LGB, but cannot unequivocally define that source. The median S, C and O isotopic compositions of ore minerals from all nine different gold deposits studied in the LGB fall in a very narrow range

The tectonic evolution and volcanism of the Lower Wyloo Group, Ashburton Province, with timing implications for giant iron-ore deposits of the Hamersley Province, Western Australia

Muller, Stefan G. January 2006 (has links)
[Truncated abstract] Banded iron formations of the ~27702405 Ma Hamersley Province of Western Australia were locally upgraded to high-grade hematite ore during the Early Palaeoproterozoic by a combination of hypogene and supergene processes after the initial rise of atmospheric oxygen. Ore genesis was associated with the stratigraphic break between Lower and Upper Wyloo Groups of the Ashburton Province, and has been variously linked to the Ophthalmian orogeny, late-orogenic extensional collapse, and anorogenic continental extension. Small spot PbPb dating of in situ baddeleyite by SHRIMP (sensitive highresolution ion-microprobe) has resolved the ages of two key suites of mafic intrusions constraining for the first time the tectonic evolution of the Ashburton Province and the age and setting of iron-ore formation. Mafic sills dated at 2208 ± 10 Ma were folded during the Ophthalmian orogeny and then cut by the unconformity at the base of the Lower Wyloo Group. A mafic dyke swarm that intrudes the Lower Wyloo Group and has close genetic relationship to iron ore is 2008 ± 16 Ma, slightly younger than a new syneruptive 2031 ± 6 Ma zircon age for the Lower Wyloo Group. These new ages constrain the Ophthalmian orogeny to the period <2210 to >2030 Ma, before Lower Wyloo Group extension, sedimentation, and flood-basalt volcanism. The ~2010 Ma dykes present a new maximum age for iron-ore genesis and deposition of the Upper Wyloo Group, thereby linking ore genesis to a ~21002000 Ma period of continental extension similarly recorded by Palaeoproterozoic terrains worldwide well after the initial oxidation of the atmosphere at ~2320 Ma. The Lower Wyloo Group contains, in ascending order, the fluvial to shallow-marine Beasley River Quartzite, the predominantly subaqueously emplaced Cheela Springs flood basalt and the Wooly Dolomite, a shelf-ramp carbonate succession. Field observations point to high subsidence of the sequence, rather than the mainly subaerial to shallow marine depositional environment-interpretation described by earlier workers. Abundant hydro-volcanic breccias, including hyaloclastite, peperite and fluidal-clast breccia all indicate quench-fragmentation processes caused by interaction of lava with water, and support the mainly subaqueous emplacement of the flood basalt which is also indicated by interlayered BIF-like chert/mudstones and below-wave-base turbiditic mass-flows.

Comparação entre o Complexo Juiz de fora e a Unidade Granulítica Ponte de Zinco: geocronologia U-Pb em zircão (LA-ICPMS), geoquímica isotópica e composição das fontes geradoras / The comparison between the Juiz de Fora Complex and the Ponte de Zinco Granulite Unit: U-Pb geeochronology (LA-ICPMS), isotopic geochemistry and isotopic composition of the generating sources

Jefferson Lima Fernandes André 18 July 2014 (has links)
Fundação Carlos Chagas Filho de Amparo a Pesquisa do Estado do Rio de Janeiro / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / A comparação entre o Complexo Juiz de Fora e a Unidade Granulítica Ponte de Zinco (Mangaratiba - RJ) revelou que existem diferenças significativas entre essas unidades. Na Unidade Granulítica Ponte de Zinco, são encontrados ortogranulitos de composição granítica e granodiorítica, que representam o embasamento da Unidade, denominada aqui de Ortogranulitos Ribeirão das Lajes. Dois outros litotipos ortoderivados também foram encontrados: (i) um ortognaisse com granada (MAN-JEF-03a), sendo que a granada ocorre de forma subordinada; (ii) ortognaisse leucocrático (MAN-JEF-04), com características miloníticas. Além dessas, rochas metassedimentares também afloram na Unidade Granulítica Ponte de Zinco. Foi interpretado que um ortogranulito (MAN-JEF-01a) de alto-K, com composição monzogranítica, cristalizou em ca. 2653 37 Ma (U-Pb em zircão por LA-ICPMS), afetado por um evento no Neoproterozóico, que gerou os minerais máficos hidratados, observados na análise petrográfica e como mostram as borda de sobrecrescimento em zircão. Sua idade modelo de Nd de 2,7 Ga e seu &#949;Nd positivo de +2,1, apontam para uma gênese mantélica, tendo assimilado rochas crustais, pois são encontrados grãos de zircão herdados de aproximadamente 2996 17 Ma e 3343 3.8 Ma. Os dados de litogeoquímica e sua razão 87Sr/86 Sr(t) (0,70529), são compatíveis com uma geração em um arco continental. O ortognaisses com granada do ponto MAN-JEF-03 possui composição granodiorítica. A idade de cristalização interpretada pela análise geocronológica U-Pb em zircão (LA-ICPMS), foi ca. 2117 15 Ma. Esse litotipo foi metamorfizado no Neoproterozóico, sendo a idade obtida pelo intercepto inferior de 631 40 Ma. Seus dados isotópicos apontam para uma rocha juvenil gerada a partir do manto (TDM &#8776; de 2,1 Ga e &#949;Nd = +3,4). Sua alta razão 87Sr/86 Sr(t) (0,710 ) juntamente com os grãos de zircão herdados (2,6 Ga) e a presença de enclaves, indicam assimilação de rochas crustais. O ortognaisse leucocrático (MAN-JEF-04) classificado como alto-K, possui composição monzogranítica, idade 2132 9,4 Ma U-Pb em zircão (LA-ICPMS). Um único grão relíquiar de ortopiroxênio encontrado em lâmina, , indica que a rocha já foi submetida a metamorfismo de fácies granulito, porém esse evento não deixou registro nos grãos analisados. O retrometamorfismo pode ter ocorrido em dois momentos, 647 11 Ma e 595 38 Ma, calculados através da concordia age, em sobrecrescimentos homogêneos e, pelo intercepto inferior, respectivamente. Sua baixa razão 87Sr/86 Sr(t) (&#8776; 0,703) associada com &#949;Nd positivo (+2,3) e sua idade modelo de aproximadamente 2,1 Ga, revelam que a rocha foi formada por um material mantélico juvenil. Já as análises geocronológicas em U-Pb em zircão (LA-ICPMS) na região de Juiz de Fora (MG), revelaram a existência de dois litotipos Arqueanos: um ortogranulito granodiorítico (MB-JEF-01b), de baixo-K com idade de 2849 11 Ma e com herança de 2975 10 Ma. Seu &#949;Nd positivo (+5,9) aponta para uma gênese a partir do manto depletado, já sua alta razão 87Sr/86Sr(t) (&#8776;0,709) indica contaminação de Rb de fontes externas, talvez causada pela assimilação da crosta, como revelam os zircões herdados e/ou fluidos retrometamorficos. Outro litotipo é uma rocha gabróica do tipo E-MORB, cuja idade foi calculada em 2691 14 Ma, com retrometamorfismo ocorrido no intervalo de 604 67 Ma, obtida pelo intercepto inferior. Seu &#949;Nd igual a +3,4 e sua razão 87Sr/86 Sr(t) (&#8776;0,701) mostram extração a partir do manto depletado. Novos dados isotópicos do CJF na região de Três Rios (RJ) e Juiz de Fora (MG), sugerem que os ortogranulitos calcioalcalinos podem representar grupos distintos. Rochas com &#949;Nd positivos são consequentemente associadas ao manto depletado, porém rochas com &#949;Nd negativos devem ter sido geradas por fusão crustal, que podem ser fusão de crosta inferior, devido a razão 87Sr/86 Sr(t) (0,70514) encontrada no amostra MB-JEF-02a (ortogranulito de alto-K) ou tendo a crosta contribuição nas gênese dessas rochas. Os ortogranulitos básicos possuem &#949;Nd positivos com baixas razões 87Sr/86 Sr(t) , o que indica extração a partir do manto depletado, porém sua razões La/YbN e La/NbN maiores que 1, revelam alguma contribuição de uma fonte enriquecida, assim também mostram suas razões Pb/Pb, que são maiores do que as razões calculadas para evolução de Pb na Terra. Essas interpretações ainda podem ser estendidas para um ortoanfibolito da série alcalina, encontrado na região de Três Rios (RJ). / The comparison between the Juiz de Fora Complex JFC and the Ponte de Zinco Granulite Unit, (Mangaratiba RJ) has shown that there are some significant differences between those two units. At the Ponte de Zinco Granulite Unit, one can find ortogranulites with a granitic and granodioritic composition, this is embasement of the area, call here as Ribeirão das Lajes Ortogranulites. Two other ortoderived litotypes have also been found: (i) a orthogneiss with garnet, (MAN-JEF-03a), being that the garnet exists in a subordinated form; (ii) leucocratic orthogneiss, (MAN-JEF-04), with mylonitic characteristics. In addition to the latter, Metasedimentary rocks also spring up in the Unit. It has been interpreted that an organulite (MAN-JEF-01a) of a high-K, with a monzogranitic composition, has crystallized into ca. of 2653 37 Ma (U-Pb into zircon by LA-ICPMS), affected by a Neoproterozoic event generated biotite, hornblende and overgrowth rims on zircon grains. Its model age of Nd of 2,7 Ga and its positive &#949;Nd of + 2,1, indicates a genesis from the depleted mantle, having assimilated of the crust, as zircon grains have been found of approximately 2996 17 Ma and 3343 3.8 Ma. The data of litogeochemistry and its ratio 87Sr/86Sr(t) (0,70529), are compatible with a generation in a continental arc. The orthogneiss with garnet (MAN-JEF-03a) has a granodioritic composition. Its crystallizing age, as interpreted by geocronological analysis U-Pb on zircon (LA-ICPMS), was ca. of 2117 15 Ma. This litotype has been metamorphized on the Neoproterozoic, with an age of 631 40 Ma being obtained at the lower intercept. Its isotopic data indicates a young rock generated from the mantle (TDM = de 2,1 Ga e &#949;Nd = +3,4), its high ratio 87Sr/86Sr(t) (0,710), together with the inherited zircon grains (2,6 Ga) and the presence of an enclave, indicate the assimilation of crusty rocks. The leucocratic orthogneiss, (MAN-JEF-04) classified as high-K, possesses a monzogranitic composition, age 2132 9,4 Ma U-Pb on zircon (LA-ICPMS). One single grain of orthopyroxene found on lamina, which has been practically consumed by retrometamorphism, which might have happened in two moments, 647 18 Ma and 595 38 Ma, calculated through the age concordia, on homogeneous overgrowth and, by the lower intercept, respectively. Its low ratio 87Sr/86Sr(t) (0,0703) associated to the positive &#949;Nd (+2,3) and its model age of approximately 2,1 Ga, reveal that the rock was formed by a young mantle material. Now the geochronological analysis in U-Pb on zircon (LA- ICPMS) in the Juiz de Fora (MG) region, revealed the existence of two litotypes (Arqueanos): one ortogranulite granodioritic (MB-EF-01b), of low-K with an age of 2849 11 Ma and a heritage of 2975 10 Ma. Its e Nd positive (+5,9) indicates a genesis from the depleted mantle, but its high ratio 87Sr/86Sr(t) (0,709) indicates contamination of Rb from external sources, maybe caused by the crust assimilation, as the inherited zircons reveal and/or the retrometamorfic fluids. One other lipotype is a gabbroic of the type E-MORB, its age has been calculated in 2691 14 Ma, with a retrometamorphism that occurred in the interval of 604 67 Ma, obtained by the lower intercept. Its &#949;Nd equal to +3,4 and its ratio 87Sr/86Sr(t) (0,701) show the extraction from the depleted mantle. New isotopic data of CJF in the Três Rios (RJ) and Juiz de Fora (MG) regions, suggest that the calcium-alkaline ortogranulites may represent distinctive groups. There are rocks with positive &#949;Nd, which are associated to the depleted mantle, however rocks with negative &#949;Nd must have been generated by crustal fusion, which can be the fusion of the lower crust, due to the ratio 87Sr/86Sr(t) (0,70514) found in the sample MB-JEF-02a (ortogranulite of high-K) or mixture between the mantle and the crust. The basic ortogranulites possess positive &#949;Nd with low ratio 87Sr/86Sr(t), which indicates the extraction from the depleted mantle, nevertheless its ratio La/YbN and La/NbN higher than 1, reveal some contribution from an enriched source, as well as its ratio Pb/Pb, which is bigger than the ones calculated for the evolvement of Pb on Earth. These interpretations can still be extended to an alkaline metabasic, found in the Três Rios (RJ) region.

Litogeoquímica, geocronologia (U-Pb) e geoquímica isotópica (Sr-Nd) dos granitoides do Domínio Cambuci (Faixa Ribeira) na região limítrofe dos Estados do Rio de Janeiro e Espírito Santo / Litogeochemistry, geochonology (U-Pb) and isotope geochemistry (Sr-Nd) of granitoids in Cambuci Domain (Ribeira Belt) between Rio de Janeiro and Espírito Santo states

Rodson de Abreu Marques 09 March 2015 (has links)
Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico / Os granitoides do Domínio Cambuci, na região limítrofe entre os estados do Rio de Janeiro e Espírito Santo, foram separados em quatro principais grupos: (1) Complexo Serra da Bolívia (CSB) - Ortogranulitos e Ortognaisses Heterogêneos; Ortognaisse Cinza Foliado; e charnockitos da Região de Monte Verde (2) Leucogranitos/leucocharnockitos gnaissificados da Suíte São João do Paraíso (SSJP) (3) Granito Cinza Foliado (4) Leucogranito isotrópico. O CSB é caracterizado pelo magmatismo de caráter calcioalcalino do tipo I, oriundo em ambiente de arco vulcânico (Suíte Monte Verde) e retrabalhamento crustal (ortogranulitos leucocráticos). O Ortogranulito esverdeado fino, é considerado no presente estudo como rocha do embasamento para o Terreno Oriental, cristalizada durante o paleoproterozoico - Riaciano (2184,3 21 Ma) e recristalizada durante o evento metamórfico Brasiliano no neoproterozoico - Edicariano (607,2 1,5 Ma), cuja idade TDM é de 2936 Ma. O Ortogranulito leucocrático médio cristalizou-se no neoproterozoico Edicariano (entre 592 e 609 Ma) e idade TDM ca. 2100 Ma, ao qual apresenta registro de herança no paleoproterozoico. A Suíte Monte Verde caracteriza-se por um magmatismo calcioalcalino e a Suíte Córrego Fortaleza, por um magmatismo calcioalcalino de alto K, ambas com assinatura de arco magmático. Registram dois pulsos magmáticos, em no Neoproterozoico - Edicarano: um em 592 2 Ma, idade do charnoenderbito, com idade TDM 1797 Ma, e outro em 571,2 1,8 Ma (injeção de um charnockitoide). Para todas as rochas do CSB são registradas feições protomiloníticas, miloníticas e localmente ultramiloníticas. Os dados geoquímicos indicam que os granitoides da SSJP são da série calcioalcalina de alto K, gerados no Neoproterozoico (idades que variam desde 610,3 4,7 Ma até, 592,2 1,3 Ma. As idades TDM revelam valores discrepantes para duas amostras: 1918 Ma e 2415 Ma, sugerindo que tenham sido geradas de diferentes fontes. O Granito Cinza Foliado é da Série Shoshonítica, metaluminoso do tipo I e, de ambiência tectônica de granitos intraplaca. Entretanto, poderiam ter sido fomados em ambiente de arco cordilheirano, havendo contaminação de outras fontes crustais. Fato este pode ser confirmado pelas as idades TDM calculadas &#8776; 1429 1446 Ma. O Leucogranito isotrópico ocorre em forma de diques de direção NW, possui textura maciça e é inequigranular. Dados geoquímicos revelam que são granitoides metaluminosos do tipo I da série shoshonítica, e, de acordo com a ambiência tectônica, são granitos intraplaca. O Leucogranito Isotrópico representa o magmatismo pós-colisional ao qual ocorreu entre 80 a 90 Ma de anos após o término do evento colisional na região central da Faixa Ribeira. O Leucogranito Issotrópico cristalizou-se no cambriano (512,3 3,3 Ma e 508,6 2,2 Ma) e com idades TDM ca. 1900 / The granitoids of Cambuci Domain, situated between Rio de Janeiro and Espírito Santo states, were divided into four main groups: (1) Serra Bolivia Complex (CSB) - Heterogeneous Orthogranulites and Orthogneisses; Grey Fine grained Orthogneiss; and charnockites of Monte Verde Region (2) leucogranites / leucocharnockites gness of the São João do Paraíso Suite (SSJP) (3) Grey Foliated Granite (4) Isotropic Leucogranite. The CSB is characterized by type I calc character of magmatism, generate in volcanic arc environment (Monte Verde Suite) and crustal reworking (Leucocratic ortogranulites). The Fine grained Greenish, is considered in this research as the embasement rock for the Oriental Terrain, crystallized during the Paleoproterozoic - Riacian (2184.3 21 Ma) and recrystallized during in the metamorphic event in the Neoproterozoic - Edicarian (607.2 1.5 Ma), whose TDM age is 2936 Ma. The Medium grained Leucocratic Ortogranulite was crystallized in the Neoproterozoic - Edicarian (between 592 and 609 Ma) and its TDM age is ca. 2100 Ma, which features heritage record in the Paleoproterozoic. The Monte Verde Suite is characterized by a magmatism calcialcalin and the Córrego Fortaleza Suite, magmatism calc-alkaline high K, both show magmatic arc signature. Records two magmatic pulses in a sample (JP-RM-08A) in the Neoproterozoic - Edicaran: the first one in 592 2 Ma, and TDM age 1797 Ma, and the second one in 571.2 1.8 Ma (injecting a charnockitoids). For all CSB rocks, protomylonítics, Mylonitic and locally ultramilonítics features were portrayed. Geochemical data show these SSJP granitoids are the calc-alkaline series of high-K, crystallyzed in Neoproterozoic (ranging from 610.3 4.7 Ma to 592.2 1.3 Ma). TDM ages show outliers in two samples: 1918 Ma and 2415 Ma, suggesting that have been generated from different sources. The Gray Foliated Granite belongs to the shoshonitic series, type I and metaluminous and are intraplate granites. However, could have been formed into arc cordilheirano, with crustal contamination of other sources. This fact would be confirmed by the TDM ages calculated &#8776; 1429 - 1446 Ma. The Isotropic Leucogranite occurs in the form of dykes, NW direction, has massive texture and is inequigranular. Geochemical data show these granitoids are metaluminous the type I shoshonitic series. They are intraplate granites. The Isotropic Leucogranite represents the post-collisional magmatism which took place between 80 and 90 Ma years after the collisional event in central sector of Ribeira Belt. It is crystallized in the Cambrian (512.3 3.3 Ma e 508.6 2.2 Ma) and TDM ages, ca. 1900 Ma

Representa uma unidade essencialmente siliciclástica formada por camadas de metaparaconglomerado quartzoso oligomítico matriz suportado, seguido por muscovita metarenito, quartzito com estratos plano-paralelos, quartzo-muscovita xisto e filito laminado cinza-esverdeados. Estas rochas mantém contato por discordância erosiva e tectônica com rochas do embasamento, sendo comum zonas de cisalhamentos de baixo mergulho lançarem as supracrustais sobre os granitoides do embasamento. Três fases deformacionais afetaram essas rochas, todos de caráter compressivo; A primeira (F1) causou o dobramento (D1) e transposição parcial do acamamento sedimentar (S0), adotando a mesma orientação da foliação S1. Estas dobras (D1) são apertadas, isoclinais a recumbentes, de eixo preferencialmente N-S sub-horizontal. Gerou também foliação plano-axial (S1) de atitude 97/44. Observa-se paragênese marcada pela coexistência de muscovita, biotita, sericita e clorita, indicando metamorfismo da fácies xisto verde, zona da biotita. As deformações subsequentes originaram duas clivagens de crenulação, a última incipiente; todavia, estas rochas ainda guardam registro de estruturas sedimentares, como estratificação e laminação plano-paralela e cruzadas tabular e acanalada. Análises Ar-Ar em muscovitas indicam fechamento do sistema Ar em 1.3 Ga, referente à primeira deformação (F1) imposta. Datações U-Pb LA-MP-ICP-MS em zircões detríticos indicam forte contribuição dos granitoides estaterianos-orosirianos e dos gnaisses do embasamento, além de idade máxima de sedimentação em 1.7 Ga. Estas rochas já tiveram diversas denominações e posições estratigráficas, todavia, feições de campo e estratigráficas, bem como análises estruturais e deformacionais aqui relatadas indicam unidade distinta, ainda não descrita no Brasil / The Campanario sequence is located in the Rio Apa Terrain, south of the Amazonian Craton, municipality of Porto Murtinho (MS). Is an essentially siliciclastic unit formed by layers of quartzitc metaparaconglomerate matrix supported, followed by muscovite metarenite, quartzite with parallel beds, quartz-muscovite schist and gray-green laminate phyllite. This rock maintains contact by erosive and tectonic disagreement with basement rocks, with common areas of low shear diving launch the supracrustal above the granitic basement. Three deformational phases affected these rocks, all of compressive character; the first (F1) caused the folding (D1) and partial transposition of the sedimentary layering (S0), adopting the same orientation of the foliation S1. These folds (D1) are tight, the isoclinal recumbent, preferably N-S sub-horizontal axis. Also generated foliation axial-plane (S1) attitude 97/44. It is observed paragenesis marked by the coexistence of muscovite, biotite, sericite and chlorite, indicating greenschist facies metamorphism, on biotite zone. Subsequent cleavage deformations originated two crenulation, the last incipient; however, these rocks still keep record of sedimentary structures such as stratification and a parallel lamination and cross-tabular and slotted. Ar-Ar analyzes indicate muscovites lock Air system at 1.3 Ga on the first deformation (F1). U-Pb dating LA-MP-ICP-MS in detrital zircons indicate strong contribution of estaterian-orosirian granitoids and gneisses of the basement, and maximum sedimentation age of 1.7 Ga. These rocks had different names and stratigraphic positions, however, field features, stratigraphic and structural/deformation analyzes reported here indicate distinct unit, not yet described in Brazil

Âge, durée et enregistrement du métamorphisme de haute pression dans le massif Central / Timing, duration and record of high-pressure metamorphism in the French massif Central

Lotout, Caroline 24 November 2017 (has links)
Les processus de subduction sont une étape clé de la formation des orogènes et induisent un métamorphisme de haute pression, localisé dans les faciès des schistes bleus et éclogites. Caractériser la durée et l’intensité de ce métamorphisme est ainsi une étape cruciale puisque amenant des contraintes quantitatives sur la géodynamique d’un orogène. Par une étude pétrologique et géochronologique, cette thèse a ainsi pour objectif de préciser les conditions et durées du métamorphisme de haute pression dans le sud du Massif Central Français (chaîne Varisque), à travers l’étude des massifs de Najac, de la Montagne Noire et du Lévézou. Cette thèse associe ainsi une géochronologie multiméthodes (U-Pb sur zircon, rutile et apatite, Lu-Hf et Sm-Nd sur grenat, 40Ar-39Ar sur biotite et muscovite) à des analyses pétrologiques impliquant des modélisations numériques d’équilibres de phases (Theriak-Domino et THERMOCALC). L’étude d’une éclogite du massif de Najac a ainsi permis de déterminer des conditions de 15 à 20 kbar et 560 à 630°C pour le métamorphisme de haute pression. Le début du faciès éclogite y est daté à ~383 Ma, tandis que le pic du métamorphisme éclogitique est atteint à 375.7 ± 1.2 Ma. La datation des éclogites de la Montagne Noire n’a pas permis de préciser un âge solide de l’évènement de haute pression. Néanmoins, les conditions de pression et température du faciès éclogite y sont estimées à ~ 21 kbar et ~ 750°C. L’étude des massifs de Najac et de la Montagne Noire a mis en évidence de potentiels découplages entre les systèmes de terres rares et le système isotopique U-Pb. Les protolithes des terrains éclogitiques du massif du Lévézou, tant mafiques que felsiques, se sont mis en place à ca. 470 Ma. Le métamorphisme éclogitique affectant les roches mafiques est estimé à 21-23 kbar pour 680- 800°C et atteint à ~358 Ma. L’exhumation, bien caractérisée, y est rapide : les terrains éclogitiques atteignent 8-9.5 kbar et ~600°C à ~352 Ma, impliquant une exhumation très rapide, suivie d’un refroidissement de plus de 50°C/Ma. Les granites du massif du Lévézou présentent des pseudomorphoses de cordiérite à disthène-grenat-muscovite-quartz, développées lors du métamorphisme de haute pression et équilibrées à ca. 15-17 kbar et ~670°C. La déformation majeure observée dans ces granites peut s’accompagner de fusion localisée, et semble se produire en différentes étapes, depuis ~352 Ma à ~340 Ma. Replacées dans un contexte général, ces données s’inscrivent pleinement dans les gammes d’âges de la haute pression décrites pour la chaîne varisque et permettent de reconsidérer la tectonique du Massif Central. / Subduction is one of the key stages of the mountain building processes. It leads to the development of high-pressure (HP) metamorphism in the rocks that typically equilibrate in the blueschist or eclogite-facies conditions. Dating the HP metamorphism and estimating its intensity is therefore a major challenge when reconstructing geodynamics through time. Through a petrological and geochronological study, this PhD dissertation aims to better constrain conditions, durations and timings of HP metamorphism in the southern French Massif Central (European Variscan Belt). The massifs of Najac, Montagne Noire and Lévézou were investigated by a multi-method geochronological approach (zircon, rutile and apatite U-Pb dating, garnet Lu-Hf and Sm-Nd dating, biotite and muscovite 40Ar-39Ar dating) associated with a petrological analysis including numerical modelling of phase equilibria (Theriak-Domino and THERMOCALC). The Najac eclogites reached 560-630 °C at 15-20 kbar and the prograde part of the highpressure metamorphic event lasted for ~ 7 Myr starting at ~ 383 and peaking at ~ 376 Ma. Eclogites hosted in sillimanite-bearing migmatites in the Montagne Noire dome (French Massif Central) reached c. 750°C, 21 kbar before significant decompression at high temperatures. However, none of the obtained geochronological dates could be associated with the HP event. The study of the Najac massif and the Montagne Noire Dome highlight potential decoupling between the REE and the U-Pb isotopic systems. The emplacement of the protoliths of felsic and mafic HP rocks in the Lévézou Massif was estimated at ca. 470 Ma. HP metamorphism peaked at 21-23 kbar and 680-800°C at ~358 Ma. The subsequent fast exhumation reached 8-9.5 kbar and ~600°C at ~352 Ma, highlighting a very fast exhumation followed by a cooling rate of 50°C/Ma. Granites from the Lévézou massif display kyanite-garnet-muscovite-quartz pseudomorphs after cordierite that equilibrated at ca. 15-17 kbar and ~670°C. The major deformation in these granites is associated with the exhumation stage, locally accompanied by partial melting, and seems to occur in different episodes, from ~352 Ma to ~340 Ma. On a larger scale, these results are fully in line with the HP ages described in the Variscan Belt and allow to reconsider the tectonics in the French Massif Central.

Litogeoquímica, geocronologia (U-Pb) e geoquímica isotópica (Sr-Nd) dos granitoides do Domínio Cambuci (Faixa Ribeira) na região limítrofe dos Estados do Rio de Janeiro e Espírito Santo / Litogeochemistry, geochonology (U-Pb) and isotope geochemistry (Sr-Nd) of granitoids in Cambuci Domain (Ribeira Belt) between Rio de Janeiro and Espírito Santo states

Rodson de Abreu Marques 09 March 2015 (has links)
Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico / Os granitoides do Domínio Cambuci, na região limítrofe entre os estados do Rio de Janeiro e Espírito Santo, foram separados em quatro principais grupos: (1) Complexo Serra da Bolívia (CSB) - Ortogranulitos e Ortognaisses Heterogêneos; Ortognaisse Cinza Foliado; e charnockitos da Região de Monte Verde (2) Leucogranitos/leucocharnockitos gnaissificados da Suíte São João do Paraíso (SSJP) (3) Granito Cinza Foliado (4) Leucogranito isotrópico. O CSB é caracterizado pelo magmatismo de caráter calcioalcalino do tipo I, oriundo em ambiente de arco vulcânico (Suíte Monte Verde) e retrabalhamento crustal (ortogranulitos leucocráticos). O Ortogranulito esverdeado fino, é considerado no presente estudo como rocha do embasamento para o Terreno Oriental, cristalizada durante o paleoproterozoico - Riaciano (2184,3 21 Ma) e recristalizada durante o evento metamórfico Brasiliano no neoproterozoico - Edicariano (607,2 1,5 Ma), cuja idade TDM é de 2936 Ma. O Ortogranulito leucocrático médio cristalizou-se no neoproterozoico Edicariano (entre 592 e 609 Ma) e idade TDM ca. 2100 Ma, ao qual apresenta registro de herança no paleoproterozoico. A Suíte Monte Verde caracteriza-se por um magmatismo calcioalcalino e a Suíte Córrego Fortaleza, por um magmatismo calcioalcalino de alto K, ambas com assinatura de arco magmático. Registram dois pulsos magmáticos, em no Neoproterozoico - Edicarano: um em 592 2 Ma, idade do charnoenderbito, com idade TDM 1797 Ma, e outro em 571,2 1,8 Ma (injeção de um charnockitoide). Para todas as rochas do CSB são registradas feições protomiloníticas, miloníticas e localmente ultramiloníticas. Os dados geoquímicos indicam que os granitoides da SSJP são da série calcioalcalina de alto K, gerados no Neoproterozoico (idades que variam desde 610,3 4,7 Ma até, 592,2 1,3 Ma. As idades TDM revelam valores discrepantes para duas amostras: 1918 Ma e 2415 Ma, sugerindo que tenham sido geradas de diferentes fontes. O Granito Cinza Foliado é da Série Shoshonítica, metaluminoso do tipo I e, de ambiência tectônica de granitos intraplaca. Entretanto, poderiam ter sido fomados em ambiente de arco cordilheirano, havendo contaminação de outras fontes crustais. Fato este pode ser confirmado pelas as idades TDM calculadas &#8776; 1429 1446 Ma. O Leucogranito isotrópico ocorre em forma de diques de direção NW, possui textura maciça e é inequigranular. Dados geoquímicos revelam que são granitoides metaluminosos do tipo I da série shoshonítica, e, de acordo com a ambiência tectônica, são granitos intraplaca. O Leucogranito Isotrópico representa o magmatismo pós-colisional ao qual ocorreu entre 80 a 90 Ma de anos após o término do evento colisional na região central da Faixa Ribeira. O Leucogranito Issotrópico cristalizou-se no cambriano (512,3 3,3 Ma e 508,6 2,2 Ma) e com idades TDM ca. 1900 / The granitoids of Cambuci Domain, situated between Rio de Janeiro and Espírito Santo states, were divided into four main groups: (1) Serra Bolivia Complex (CSB) - Heterogeneous Orthogranulites and Orthogneisses; Grey Fine grained Orthogneiss; and charnockites of Monte Verde Region (2) leucogranites / leucocharnockites gness of the São João do Paraíso Suite (SSJP) (3) Grey Foliated Granite (4) Isotropic Leucogranite. The CSB is characterized by type I calc character of magmatism, generate in volcanic arc environment (Monte Verde Suite) and crustal reworking (Leucocratic ortogranulites). The Fine grained Greenish, is considered in this research as the embasement rock for the Oriental Terrain, crystallized during the Paleoproterozoic - Riacian (2184.3 21 Ma) and recrystallized during in the metamorphic event in the Neoproterozoic - Edicarian (607.2 1.5 Ma), whose TDM age is 2936 Ma. The Medium grained Leucocratic Ortogranulite was crystallized in the Neoproterozoic - Edicarian (between 592 and 609 Ma) and its TDM age is ca. 2100 Ma, which features heritage record in the Paleoproterozoic. The Monte Verde Suite is characterized by a magmatism calcialcalin and the Córrego Fortaleza Suite, magmatism calc-alkaline high K, both show magmatic arc signature. Records two magmatic pulses in a sample (JP-RM-08A) in the Neoproterozoic - Edicaran: the first one in 592 2 Ma, and TDM age 1797 Ma, and the second one in 571.2 1.8 Ma (injecting a charnockitoids). For all CSB rocks, protomylonítics, Mylonitic and locally ultramilonítics features were portrayed. Geochemical data show these SSJP granitoids are the calc-alkaline series of high-K, crystallyzed in Neoproterozoic (ranging from 610.3 4.7 Ma to 592.2 1.3 Ma). TDM ages show outliers in two samples: 1918 Ma and 2415 Ma, suggesting that have been generated from different sources. The Gray Foliated Granite belongs to the shoshonitic series, type I and metaluminous and are intraplate granites. However, could have been formed into arc cordilheirano, with crustal contamination of other sources. This fact would be confirmed by the TDM ages calculated &#8776; 1429 - 1446 Ma. The Isotropic Leucogranite occurs in the form of dykes, NW direction, has massive texture and is inequigranular. Geochemical data show these granitoids are metaluminous the type I shoshonitic series. They are intraplate granites. The Isotropic Leucogranite represents the post-collisional magmatism which took place between 80 and 90 Ma years after the collisional event in central sector of Ribeira Belt. It is crystallized in the Cambrian (512.3 3.3 Ma e 508.6 2.2 Ma) and TDM ages, ca. 1900 Ma

Comparação entre o Complexo Juiz de fora e a Unidade Granulítica Ponte de Zinco: geocronologia U-Pb em zircão (LA-ICPMS), geoquímica isotópica e composição das fontes geradoras / The comparison between the Juiz de Fora Complex and the Ponte de Zinco Granulite Unit: U-Pb geeochronology (LA-ICPMS), isotopic geochemistry and isotopic composition of the generating sources

Jefferson Lima Fernandes André 18 July 2014 (has links)
Fundação Carlos Chagas Filho de Amparo a Pesquisa do Estado do Rio de Janeiro / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / A comparação entre o Complexo Juiz de Fora e a Unidade Granulítica Ponte de Zinco (Mangaratiba - RJ) revelou que existem diferenças significativas entre essas unidades. Na Unidade Granulítica Ponte de Zinco, são encontrados ortogranulitos de composição granítica e granodiorítica, que representam o embasamento da Unidade, denominada aqui de Ortogranulitos Ribeirão das Lajes. Dois outros litotipos ortoderivados também foram encontrados: (i) um ortognaisse com granada (MAN-JEF-03a), sendo que a granada ocorre de forma subordinada; (ii) ortognaisse leucocrático (MAN-JEF-04), com características miloníticas. Além dessas, rochas metassedimentares também afloram na Unidade Granulítica Ponte de Zinco. Foi interpretado que um ortogranulito (MAN-JEF-01a) de alto-K, com composição monzogranítica, cristalizou em ca. 2653 37 Ma (U-Pb em zircão por LA-ICPMS), afetado por um evento no Neoproterozóico, que gerou os minerais máficos hidratados, observados na análise petrográfica e como mostram as borda de sobrecrescimento em zircão. Sua idade modelo de Nd de 2,7 Ga e seu &#949;Nd positivo de +2,1, apontam para uma gênese mantélica, tendo assimilado rochas crustais, pois são encontrados grãos de zircão herdados de aproximadamente 2996 17 Ma e 3343 3.8 Ma. Os dados de litogeoquímica e sua razão 87Sr/86 Sr(t) (0,70529), são compatíveis com uma geração em um arco continental. O ortognaisses com granada do ponto MAN-JEF-03 possui composição granodiorítica. A idade de cristalização interpretada pela análise geocronológica U-Pb em zircão (LA-ICPMS), foi ca. 2117 15 Ma. Esse litotipo foi metamorfizado no Neoproterozóico, sendo a idade obtida pelo intercepto inferior de 631 40 Ma. Seus dados isotópicos apontam para uma rocha juvenil gerada a partir do manto (TDM &#8776; de 2,1 Ga e &#949;Nd = +3,4). Sua alta razão 87Sr/86 Sr(t) (0,710 ) juntamente com os grãos de zircão herdados (2,6 Ga) e a presença de enclaves, indicam assimilação de rochas crustais. O ortognaisse leucocrático (MAN-JEF-04) classificado como alto-K, possui composição monzogranítica, idade 2132 9,4 Ma U-Pb em zircão (LA-ICPMS). Um único grão relíquiar de ortopiroxênio encontrado em lâmina, , indica que a rocha já foi submetida a metamorfismo de fácies granulito, porém esse evento não deixou registro nos grãos analisados. O retrometamorfismo pode ter ocorrido em dois momentos, 647 11 Ma e 595 38 Ma, calculados através da concordia age, em sobrecrescimentos homogêneos e, pelo intercepto inferior, respectivamente. Sua baixa razão 87Sr/86 Sr(t) (&#8776; 0,703) associada com &#949;Nd positivo (+2,3) e sua idade modelo de aproximadamente 2,1 Ga, revelam que a rocha foi formada por um material mantélico juvenil. Já as análises geocronológicas em U-Pb em zircão (LA-ICPMS) na região de Juiz de Fora (MG), revelaram a existência de dois litotipos Arqueanos: um ortogranulito granodiorítico (MB-JEF-01b), de baixo-K com idade de 2849 11 Ma e com herança de 2975 10 Ma. Seu &#949;Nd positivo (+5,9) aponta para uma gênese a partir do manto depletado, já sua alta razão 87Sr/86Sr(t) (&#8776;0,709) indica contaminação de Rb de fontes externas, talvez causada pela assimilação da crosta, como revelam os zircões herdados e/ou fluidos retrometamorficos. Outro litotipo é uma rocha gabróica do tipo E-MORB, cuja idade foi calculada em 2691 14 Ma, com retrometamorfismo ocorrido no intervalo de 604 67 Ma, obtida pelo intercepto inferior. Seu &#949;Nd igual a +3,4 e sua razão 87Sr/86 Sr(t) (&#8776;0,701) mostram extração a partir do manto depletado. Novos dados isotópicos do CJF na região de Três Rios (RJ) e Juiz de Fora (MG), sugerem que os ortogranulitos calcioalcalinos podem representar grupos distintos. Rochas com &#949;Nd positivos são consequentemente associadas ao manto depletado, porém rochas com &#949;Nd negativos devem ter sido geradas por fusão crustal, que podem ser fusão de crosta inferior, devido a razão 87Sr/86 Sr(t) (0,70514) encontrada no amostra MB-JEF-02a (ortogranulito de alto-K) ou tendo a crosta contribuição nas gênese dessas rochas. Os ortogranulitos básicos possuem &#949;Nd positivos com baixas razões 87Sr/86 Sr(t) , o que indica extração a partir do manto depletado, porém sua razões La/YbN e La/NbN maiores que 1, revelam alguma contribuição de uma fonte enriquecida, assim também mostram suas razões Pb/Pb, que são maiores do que as razões calculadas para evolução de Pb na Terra. Essas interpretações ainda podem ser estendidas para um ortoanfibolito da série alcalina, encontrado na região de Três Rios (RJ). / The comparison between the Juiz de Fora Complex JFC and the Ponte de Zinco Granulite Unit, (Mangaratiba RJ) has shown that there are some significant differences between those two units. At the Ponte de Zinco Granulite Unit, one can find ortogranulites with a granitic and granodioritic composition, this is embasement of the area, call here as Ribeirão das Lajes Ortogranulites. Two other ortoderived litotypes have also been found: (i) a orthogneiss with garnet, (MAN-JEF-03a), being that the garnet exists in a subordinated form; (ii) leucocratic orthogneiss, (MAN-JEF-04), with mylonitic characteristics. In addition to the latter, Metasedimentary rocks also spring up in the Unit. It has been interpreted that an organulite (MAN-JEF-01a) of a high-K, with a monzogranitic composition, has crystallized into ca. of 2653 37 Ma (U-Pb into zircon by LA-ICPMS), affected by a Neoproterozoic event generated biotite, hornblende and overgrowth rims on zircon grains. Its model age of Nd of 2,7 Ga and its positive &#949;Nd of + 2,1, indicates a genesis from the depleted mantle, having assimilated of the crust, as zircon grains have been found of approximately 2996 17 Ma and 3343 3.8 Ma. The data of litogeochemistry and its ratio 87Sr/86Sr(t) (0,70529), are compatible with a generation in a continental arc. The orthogneiss with garnet (MAN-JEF-03a) has a granodioritic composition. Its crystallizing age, as interpreted by geocronological analysis U-Pb on zircon (LA-ICPMS), was ca. of 2117 15 Ma. This litotype has been metamorphized on the Neoproterozoic, with an age of 631 40 Ma being obtained at the lower intercept. Its isotopic data indicates a young rock generated from the mantle (TDM = de 2,1 Ga e &#949;Nd = +3,4), its high ratio 87Sr/86Sr(t) (0,710), together with the inherited zircon grains (2,6 Ga) and the presence of an enclave, indicate the assimilation of crusty rocks. The leucocratic orthogneiss, (MAN-JEF-04) classified as high-K, possesses a monzogranitic composition, age 2132 9,4 Ma U-Pb on zircon (LA-ICPMS). One single grain of orthopyroxene found on lamina, which has been practically consumed by retrometamorphism, which might have happened in two moments, 647 18 Ma and 595 38 Ma, calculated through the age concordia, on homogeneous overgrowth and, by the lower intercept, respectively. Its low ratio 87Sr/86Sr(t) (0,0703) associated to the positive &#949;Nd (+2,3) and its model age of approximately 2,1 Ga, reveal that the rock was formed by a young mantle material. Now the geochronological analysis in U-Pb on zircon (LA- ICPMS) in the Juiz de Fora (MG) region, revealed the existence of two litotypes (Arqueanos): one ortogranulite granodioritic (MB-EF-01b), of low-K with an age of 2849 11 Ma and a heritage of 2975 10 Ma. Its e Nd positive (+5,9) indicates a genesis from the depleted mantle, but its high ratio 87Sr/86Sr(t) (0,709) indicates contamination of Rb from external sources, maybe caused by the crust assimilation, as the inherited zircons reveal and/or the retrometamorfic fluids. One other lipotype is a gabbroic of the type E-MORB, its age has been calculated in 2691 14 Ma, with a retrometamorphism that occurred in the interval of 604 67 Ma, obtained by the lower intercept. Its &#949;Nd equal to +3,4 and its ratio 87Sr/86Sr(t) (0,701) show the extraction from the depleted mantle. New isotopic data of CJF in the Três Rios (RJ) and Juiz de Fora (MG) regions, suggest that the calcium-alkaline ortogranulites may represent distinctive groups. There are rocks with positive &#949;Nd, which are associated to the depleted mantle, however rocks with negative &#949;Nd must have been generated by crustal fusion, which can be the fusion of the lower crust, due to the ratio 87Sr/86Sr(t) (0,70514) found in the sample MB-JEF-02a (ortogranulite of high-K) or mixture between the mantle and the crust. The basic ortogranulites possess positive &#949;Nd with low ratio 87Sr/86Sr(t), which indicates the extraction from the depleted mantle, nevertheless its ratio La/YbN and La/NbN higher than 1, reveal some contribution from an enriched source, as well as its ratio Pb/Pb, which is bigger than the ones calculated for the evolvement of Pb on Earth. These interpretations can still be extended to an alkaline metabasic, found in the Três Rios (RJ) region.
