Abstract:

The West Kunlun region is located in the northwest margin of the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau. Due to the subduction and collision of the Indian plate, this region has many post-collisional potassic volcanic areas of different sizes. Scholars have conducted many volcanic geology and petro-geochemistry work in the West Kunlun volcanic area, mainly focusing on the origin of deep magmas and plate dynamics. However, the magmatic processes of these potassic volcanic rocks are still unclear. To reveal the magmatic processes in the West Kunlun region and understand the mechanism of volcanic eruption, we analyzed the whole-rock major elements, structure and compositions of the phenocrysts, the crystal size distribution(CSD), and magma crystallization temperature and pressure conditions of the Pulu and Kangxiwa volcanic rocks. The results show that the magma sources of the two volcanic regions are close and their trace element characteristics are similar. Still, their rock types and mineral compositions are significantly different. The Pulu volcanic rocks are mainly trachyandesite and basaltic trachyandesite. The phenocrysts are composed of plagioclase, olivine, clinopyroxene and a small amount of orthopyroxene. The Kangxiwa volcanic rocks are mainly phonotephrite, consisting of clinopyroxene, biotite, and a small amount of olivine and plagioclase. The erosion and zonation of plagioclase, olivine and clinopyroxene were observed under a microscope. There are Nb-Ta and Ti negative anomalies in the two regions, with relative enrichment of large ion lithophile elements(LILF)and light rare earth elements(LREE), indicating that the magma source area has the characteristics of island arc magma, which is related to plate subduction. Based on the analysis of previous Sr-Nd datas, we suggest that the magmas from these two volcanic areas originated from enriched sources.

According to the erosion characteristics, zonal composition data, and the concave CSD pattern, we suggest that the magma in Pulu mixed with acidic magma, whereas the magma in Kangxiwa may only mix with the internal magma, resulting in a large amount of melt erosion of phenocrysts. In Pulu volcanic rocks, the retention time of the smaller size(<5mm)crystal is 190-332a, and that of crystallographic size(>5mm)is 339-860a. The CSD curves of clinopyroxene phenocrysts in Kangxiwa phonotephrites kink at the size of 1.5mm. In Kangxiwa volcanic rocks, the residence time of smaller crystallographic size(<1.5mm)is 5.8-6.4a, and that of larger crystallographic size(>1.5mm)is 9.6-21.2a. The CSD curves of the volcanic rocks from Pulu and Kangxiwa volcanic regions are concave upward, indicating that magma mixing may have occurred both in the two volcanic regions. The An values of the core and the rim of the normal zoning plagioclases and the For value of the normal zoning olivines in the Pulu volcanic rocks vary widely, and the feldspars with low An values at the rim are out of balance with the melt. This indicates that the magma of the Pulu volcanic group mixed with the acidic magma. The Mg# of the normal zoning clinopyroxenes in the Kangxiwa volcanic rocks has a narrow range, and they are all in balance with the melt. The crystallization pressure at the rim was low, and the decompression caused a large number of resorbed phenocrysts to melt. This indicates that the mixing of phenocrysts with different degrees of melting and erosion may result in upward concave CSD curves of clinopyroxenes in the Kangxiwa volcanic rocks, so the Kangxiwa volcanic rocks may only have internal magma mixing.

The mineral-melt equilibrium thermometers show that the equilibrium temperature and pressure of the Pulu volcanic rocks are 1 035-1 218℃, 5.1-9.9kbar, respectively, and the corresponding depth is 19.4~37.3km. The equilibrium temperature of Kangxiwa volcanic rocks is 1 154-1 282℃, the equilibrium pressure is 1.2-11.6kbar, and the corresponding depth is 4.3~43.7km. The variation range of equilibrium pressure in the Kangxiwa region is large, which may be related to the deep fault zone. In this study, by quantitatively studying the magmatic processes of post-collisional potassic volcanic rocks in the West Kunlun region, we provide CSD calculations of the volcanic rocks, reveal the migration and evolution processes of magmas in the crustal magma reservoir, and provide important information for the volcanic activities in the northwest margin of the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau and its surrounding regions.

摘要:

西昆仑处于青藏高原西北缘, 该地区岩浆活动强烈, 形成了多个大小、 规模不等的碰撞后钾质火山岩群, 但这些钾质火山岩的岩浆作用过程依然不清晰。 为了研究西昆仑地区的岩浆作用过程, 文中选取了该区域的普鲁和康西瓦火山群作为研究对象, 对其火山岩进行了全岩主量元素含量、 斑晶结构和成分分析, 以及晶体大小分布(CSD)和岩浆结晶温压条件研究。 结果表明, 尽管两地的岩浆具有相似的源区, 但这2个火山群的岩石类型和矿物组成存在显著差异。 普鲁火山岩为一套粗安岩和玄武粗安岩的组合, 斑晶由斜长石、 橄榄石、 单斜辉石和少量斜方辉石构成; 康西瓦火山岩主要为响岩质碱玄岩, 斑晶矿物为单斜辉石、 黑云母和少量橄榄石及斜长石。 结合斑晶结构、 环带成分和CSD曲线形态分析认为, 普鲁火山岩经历了不同演化程度的岩浆混合; 而康西瓦火山岩仅发生了岩浆自混, 且减压造成了斑晶的大量熔蚀。 矿物-熔体平衡温压计计算表明, 普鲁火山岩的平衡温度为1 036~1 218℃, 平衡压力为5.1~9.9kbar, 对应的深度为19.4~37.3km; 康西瓦火山岩的平衡温度为1 154~1 282℃, 平衡压力为1.2~11.6kbar, 对应深度为4.3~43.7km。 康西瓦地区的平衡压力变化范围较大, 可能与所处的断裂带有关。 文中定量化研究了西昆仑地区的后碰撞钾质火山岩的岩浆作用过程, 补充了以往对该区域火山岩中斑晶CSD的研究, 揭示了岩浆在地壳岩浆储库内的运移和演化过程, 为青藏高原西北缘及其周边地区的火山活动研究提供了重要信息。
