Geochronological and geochemical study of the Lijiazi mafic granulites from the Daqingshan-Wulashan metamorphic complex, the central Khondalite Belt in the North China Craton

Abstract:
The Lijiazi mafic granulites are predominantly composed of Amp Cpx-Opx granulite, Grt-bearing Amp Cpx-Opx granulite and Bt Amp Cpx-Opx granulite, and have been found as irregular lenses and deformed dykes within the Al-rich gneisses and granitic gneisses in the Daqingshan-Wulashan metamorphic complex. The apparent 207Pb/206Pb ages recorded by the metamorphic zircon domains with the middle-to low-pressure granulite-facies mineral inclusions of Cpx+Amp+Pl, which are consistent to the matrix-type metamorphic assemblages of the mafic granulites, range from 1933±39Ma to 1834±40Ma with a weighted mean age of 1892±7Ma, which are interpreted as the timing of the middle-to low-pressure granulite-facies metamorphism of the mafic granulites. Mobile elements such as the large ion lithophile elements (K, Na, Sr, Rb) of the mafic granulites changed in significant levels, high field strength elements (such as Nb, Zr, Ti) and rare earth elements basically unchanged and keep stable during the metamorphic process. The Lijiazi mafic granulites from the Daqingshan complex belong to tholeiitic-basaltic rock series, with the concentrations of SiO2 at 45.58%~51.40%, and Mg# value mainly ranging from 41 to 54. The composition of the rare earth elements of the mafic granulites is characterized by the flat, (La/Yb)CN=1.30~1.51) with no Eu anomalies (Eu/Eu*=0.93~1.04) on the chondrite-normalized patterns. All samples of the mafic granulites share obvious negative anomaly in Nb, Zr and Ti of the Phanerozoic island arc basalts. According to the geochemical and geochronological data of the Lijiazi mafic granulites, it is suggested that the protolith ages of the Lijiazi mafic granulites is 2450~1930Ma, the protoliths of the mafic granulites are undergone middle-to low-pressure granulite-facies metamorphism at ~1900Ma, the composition of the major and trace elements of the mafic granulites is characterized by the island arc tholeiitic basaltic rocks, and their protoliths may be gabbro or diabase dykes which formed in the island arc of the plate convergence dynamic setting.
