摘要
The western Kunlun orogen occupies a key position along the tectonic junction between the Pan-Asian and Tethyan domains, reflecting Proto- and Palaeo-Tethys subduction and terrane collision during early Palaeozoic to early Mesozoic time. We present the first detailed zircon UPb chronology, major and trace element, and SrNdOHf isotope geochemistry of the Qiukesu pluton and its microgranular enclaves from this multiple orogenic belt. SHRIMP zircon UPb dating shows that the Qiukesu pluton was emplaced in the early Silurian (ca. 435Ma). It consists of weakly peraluminous high-K calc-alkaline monzogranite and syenogranite, with initial Sr-87/Sr-86 ratios of 0.71310.7229, E-Nd(T) of 4.1 to 5.7, O-18 of 8.010.8 parts per thousand, and E-Hf(T) (in situ zircon) of 4.9. Elemental and isotopic data suggest that the granites formed by partial melting of lower-crustal granulitized metasedimentary-igneous Precambrian basement triggered by underplating of coeval mantle-derived enclave-forming intermediate magmas. Fractional crystallization of these purely crustal melts may explain the more felsic end-member granitic rocks, whereas such crustal melts plus additional input from coeval enclave-forming intermediate magma could account for the less felsic granites. The enclaves are intermediate (SiO2 57.662.2wt.%) with high K2O (1.83.6wt.%). They have initial Sr-87/Sr-86 ratios of 0.71320.7226, E-Nd(T) of 5.0 to 6.0, O-18 of 6.99.9 parts per thousand, and E-Hf(T) (in situ zircon) of 8.1. We interpret the enclave magmas as having been derived by partial melting of subduction-modified mantle in the PT transition zone between the spinel and spinel-garnet stability fields. Our new data suggest that subduction of the Proto-Tethyan oceanic crust was continuous to the early Silurian (ca. 435Ma); the final closure of the Proto-Tethys occurred in the middle Silurian.
