Magmatic Association

The Devonian magmatic association of the Eastern Azov region, which is part of the Pripyat-Dnieper-Donetsk rift zone, was studied. The association includes gabbroids, peridotites, pyroxenites, and lamprophyre dikes of the Pokrovo-Kireevsky massif (PKM) and picrites, picrobasalts and basalts of the Anton-Taramskaya suite (ATS). The clinopyroxenes of different generations from the micaceous PCM gabbro and the alkaline ATS picrite were studied. It was obtained the information on the mantle source composition and the evolution of melts, who determined the close spatial-temporal location of kimberlites, basites, ultramafic rocks, including alkaline ones, in the Eastern Azov region. Clinopyroxenes from micaceous gabbro are composed of Cpx1 (Mg# = 0.870.88) or Сpx2 (Mg# = 0.800.81) cores and Cpx3 external zones (Mg# = 0.700.76). Clinopyroxenes in alkaline picrite are composed of Сpx2 cores (Mg # = 0.800.84) and external Cpx3 zones (Mg# = 0.710.78). The multielement spectra of clinopyroxenes are generally dome-shaped in nature, with enrichment with LREE, depletion of Ba, Nb, TREE, Zr-Hf negative anomaly, a negative Sr-anomaly appears in Cpx2 and Cpx3 also. The resulting compositions of the model melt for Сpx2 from the micaceous gabbro are very close to the composition of this gabbro, and the compositions of the model melt for Cpx2 from the alkaline picrite coincide with those of this picrite. The high Mg# value and concentrations of Cr in Cpx1 cores indicate that the earliest weakly differentiated composition close to the primary could serve as the equilibrium melt. The presence in the Cpx1 geochemical spectra of a negative Zr-Hf anomaly at ZrPM HfРМ may be evidence of the origin of melts that once contained these clinopyroxenes, due to the melting of metasomatized, possibly carbonated garnet-contained peridotites. Probably, the Cpx1 cores are relics of phenocrysts crystallized from the earliest melt during the formation of the PCM and the ATS. An important feature of the Eastern Azov rocks is a very high content of Ti (up to 7.3 wt.% TiO2) in the high-Mg (Mg# = 0.480.65) and deep (CaO/Al2O3 0.8) melts, which formed picrobasalts and lamprophyres. The geochemical features of the early Cpx1 cores compared with the geochemistry of clinopyroxenes from ilmenite-containing mantle metasomatites are consistent with the assumption that carbonated ilmenite-containing peridotites, possibly also phlogopite-containing (PIC), are the source of ultrahigh-Ti primary melts for the Eastern Azov lamprophyres.

Magmatic Association

We report a spatially and temporally linked arc magmatic association of 2.55−2.50 Ga mid-ocean ridge basalt (MORB)-affinity gabbros, arc-affinity basalts, high-Mg basalts/basaltic andesites (HMBA), Nb-enriched basalts (NEB), and a tonalite-trondhjemite-granodiorite (TTG)-like granodiorite from the Dengfeng greenstone belt (DFGB), North China Craton. These are identical to arc magmatic rock suites from hot subduction in the present plate mosaic, and resemble suites formed during subduction initiation. Laser ablation−inductively coupled plasma−mass spectrometry zircon U-Pb dating indicates that gabbros and granodiorites intruded at ca. 2.55 Ga and the HMBAs formed at ca. 2.50 Ga, indicating a long duration of subduction zone magmatic activity of at least 50 m.y. in the DFGB. The gabbros are characterized by flat light-rare earth element (LREE) patterns without negative Nb and Zr anomalies, showing a MORB-like geochemical affinity. Combined with previously reported normal-MORB-type basalts, we suggest that they may represent magmatic products during intraoceanic subduction initiation where their mantle source was slightly metasomatized by subduction-derived fluids during the initiation stage. The arc-affinity basalts are characterized by slightly enriched LREE patterns with negative Nb and Zr anomalies. The HMBAs have higher contents of MgO, Ni, and Cr and display more fractionated rare earth element (REE) patterns and large negative Nb and Zr anomalies than the arc-affinity basalts. The NEBs are characterized by high absolute contents of Nb (9.9−14 ppm) and high ratios of Nb/Laprimitive mantle (pm) (0.40−0.46) and Nb/Thpm (0.44−0.54), and moderately fractionated REE and minor negative Nb anomalies with no Zr anomalies. One granodiorite sample is characterized by a highly fractionated REE pattern and negative Nb and Zr anomalies. Geochemical modeling suggests that the association of the normal arc-affinity basalt (NAB)-HMBA-NEB can be interpreted to be generated by hybridization of mantle wedge peridotites by slab-derived TTG-like melts. Positive values of whole-rock εNd (t) and zircon εHf (t) of the 2.55−2.50 Ga magmatic associations are consistent with a long-term depleted mantle source for the mafic assemblage. The 2.55−2.50 Ga magmatic association from MORB-affinity gabbros and basalts to arc-affinity NAB-HMBA-NEB may record a continuous Neoarchean geodynamic process from intraoceanic subduction initiation to mature arc magmatism. The NAB-HMBA-NEB association with regional sanukitoids and high-Al TTGs indicates that hot subduction may have played an important role in the production of arc-related magmatism during the Archean.

AbstractTrentino Porphyry is an igneous rock composed of rhyolitic–rhyodacitic ignimbrites. It belongs to the Athesian Volcanic Group, a widespread calc-alkaline magmatic association of Lower Permian age (280–270 Ma) occurring in the Trentino-Alto Adige region, north Italy. Extraction and processing are currently carried out in Trento Province, particularly in the region of Cembra Valley and its surroundings. Initially introduced for road setts throughout Trentino and Südtirol, Trentino Porphyry has progressively become one of the most important materials for paving and facing in Europe and all over the world, where it is appreciated and renowned for its durability. It has successively acquired an unquestionable versatility of application, thanks to a rare mix of mineralogy and textural and structural features, combined with excellent technical properties. Given the role played by this stone in almost any aspect of the area – cultural, architectural, production and social – it is proposed for candidacy as a Global Heritage Stone Resource.
