英文摘要 | The Cenozoic Himalayan leucogranite-pegmatite belt has been a hotspot for rare metal exploration in recent years. To determine the genesis of the pegmatite in the Himalayan region and its relationship with the Greater Himalayan Crystalline Complex (GHC), the Gyirong pegmatite in southern Tibet was chosen for geochronological and geochemical studies. The dating analyses indicate that the U-Th-Pb ages of zircon, monazite, and xenotime exhibit large variations (38.6-16.1 Ma), with the weighted average value of the four youngest points is 16.5 & PLUSMN; 0.3 Ma, which indicates that the final stage of crystallization of the melt occurred in the Miocene. The age of the muscovite Ar-Ar inverse isochron is 15.2 & PLUSMN; 0.4 Ma, which is slightly later than the intrusion age, showing that a cooling process associated with rapid denudation occurred at 16-15 Ma. The & epsilon;Hf(t) values of the Cenozoic anatectic zircons cluster between -12 and -9 with an average of -11.4. The Gyirong pegmatite shows high contents of Si, Al, and K, a high Al saturation index, and low contents of Na, Ca, Fe, Mn, P, Mg, and Ti. Overall, the Gyirong pegmatite is enriched in Rb, Cs, U, K, Th and Pb and depleted in Nb, Ta, Zr, Ti, Eu, Sr, and Ba. The samples show a high 87Sr/86Sr(16Ma)ratio of ca. 0.762 and a low & epsilon;Nd(16 Ma)value of -16.0. The calculated average initial values of208Pb/204Pb(16 Ma),207Pb/204Pb(16Ma)and 206Pb/204Pb(16Ma) of the whole rock are 39.72, 15.79 and 19.56, respectively. The Sr-Nd-Pb-Hf isotopic characteristics of the Gyirong pegmatite are consistent with those of the GHC. This study concludes that the Gyirong pegmatite represents a typical crustal-derived anatectic pegmatite with low metallogenic potential for rare metals. The Gyirong pegmatite records the long-term metamorphism and partial melting process of the GHC, and reflects the crustal thickening caused by thrust compression at 39-29 Ma and the crustal thinning induced by extensional decompression during 28-15 Ma.& COPY;2023 China Geology Editorial Office. |
