asthenosphere lithosphere interaction triggered by a slab window during ridge subduction trace element and sr nd hf os isotopic evidence from late carboniferous tholeiites in the western junggar area nw china
Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2012Co-Authors: Gongjian Tang, Derek A Wyman, Qiang Wang, Zhenhua Zhao, Weidong SunAbstract:Abstract Tholeiites occur in a variety of geological settings, e.g., mid-ocean ridge, back-arc basin, ocean island, island arc and intra-continent, and their geochemical and isotopic characteristics vary according to the corresponding geodynamic environments. Here we investigated the HATU tholeiitic basalts and basaltic andesites of the western Junggar region, Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB). LA-ICPMS zircon U–Pb analyses indicate that the HATU tholeiites were generated in the Late Carboniferous (~ 315 Ma). All the studied rock samples are characterized by flat rare earth elements pattern on chondrite-normalized plot, and negligible Nb, Ta and Ti anomalies on mid-ocean-ridge basalt normalized plots. They are also characterized by moderate positive eNd(t) (+ 5.25 to + 5.94), eHf(t) (+ 13.24 to + 14.89), highly radiogenic Os isotope compositions (187Os/188Os315Ma = 0.1338–0.3547), and relatively low (87Sr/86Sr)i ratios (0.7044 to 0.7048). Taking into account their geological characteristics, the occurrence of nearby ophiolites and the types of contemporaneous magmatic rocks found in the western Junggar region, we propose that the HATU basalts were generated by slab window-related processes following a spreading ridge subduction beneath the Keramay intra-oceanic island arc. During this process, deep and enriched asthenospheric mantle rose to the edge of the subducted oceanic lithosphere, its melts infiltrating the subducted oceanic lithosphere and reacting with peridotites. Therefore, the HATU tholeiites are interpreted as a result of melting of a mixed mantle source consisting of subducted depleted oceanic lithosphere and a deep, enriched upwelling asthenospheric mantle. Incongruent dynamic melting modeling of trace element compositions indicates that the HATU basalts could have been derived from large degrees of melting (~ 10%) of such a mixed mantle source. This newly recognized mechanism is a natural consequence of the diversity of contemporaneous potential mantle sources available in slab window settings.
