Mineralogical Evidence

Textural and mineralogical features in the high-K calc-alkaline Kozárovice granodiorite (Hercynian Central Bohemian Pluton, Bohemian Massif) and associated small quartz monzonite masses imply that mixing between acid (granodioritic) and basic (monzonitic/monzogabbroic) magmas was locally petrogenetically significant.Net veining, with acicular apatite and numerous lath-shaped plagioclase crystals present in the quartz monzonite, and abundant mafic microgranular enclaves (MME) in the granodiorite, indicate that as the monzonitic magma was injected into the granodioritic magma chamber, it rapidly cooled and was partly disintegrated by the melt already present. Evidence from cathodoluminescence suggests that the two magmas exchanged early-formed plagioclase crystals. In the quartz monzonite, granodiorite-derived crystals were overgrown by narrow calcic zones, followed by broad, normally zoned sodic rims. In the granodiorite, plagioclase crystals with calcic cores overgrown by normally zoned sodic rims are interpreted as xenocrysts from the monzonite. After thermal adjustment, crystallisation of the monzonitic magma ceased relatively slowly, forming quartz and K-feldspar oikocrysts.Although the whole-rock geochemistry of the quartz monzonite and the MME support magma mixing, major- and trace-element based modelling of the host granodiorite has previously indicated an origin dominated by assimilation and fractional crystallisation. Magma mixing therefore seems to represent a local modifying influence rather than the primary petrogenetic process.

Main Variety

The Ilha Anchieta Quartz Monzonite (IAQM) occupies most of the homonymous island in the coast of the state of São Paulo, and is intrusive into foliated rocks of the ~565 Ma Ubatuba Charnockite. The main petrographic variety is a porphyritic biotite-hornblende quartz monzonite with 2-4 cm tabular microcline megacrysts set in a medium-grained groundmass and magmatic foliation. Outcrop-scale structures indicate cumulative processes (modal and grain-size magmatic banding) and interaction with basic magmas (mafic microgranular enclaves). Lithogeochemical data indicates that the main variety is intermediate to acid (S1O2 = 63-67%), alkali-calcic, metaluminous and magnesian (mg# ~30), showing moderate Sr (300-400 ppm) and Ba (~1500 ppm) contents and relatively high HFSE (Nb = 40 ppm; Zr = 550-700 ppm). The older charnockites are more silicic (S1O2 = 71-78%), ferroan(mg# = 12-16), and have very low Sr (13-80 ppm) contents, resulting in Ba/Sr ratios remarkably higher than the IAQM (10 versus 4). LA-MC-ICPMS U-Pb zircon dating of the IAQM yielded 499.7 ± 5.9 Ma. This is the youngest magmatic age identified so far in the crystalline basement of the state of São Paulo, and indicates that the pluton is the southernmost expression of the post-collisional "G5" magmatism in the Ribeira Belt.

<p>Eocene granitoids in NW Anatolia occurred following the continental collision between Sakarya Continent and Tauride-Anatolide Platform and mark the onset of post-collisional magmatism in the region. One of the representative members of the Eocene granitoids, the Tepeldağ pluton crops out as two isolated granitic bodies and is intruded into the Cretaceous blueschist assemblages (Kocasu formation) and ophiolitic rocks within the Izmir-Ankara-Erzincan suture zone (IAESZ). South Tepeldağ pluton (STP) is composed mainly of granodiorite with subordinate quartz diorite, which show transitional contacts. Aplitic dykes crosscut the pluton as well as the country rocks. STP includes a number of mafic microgranular enclaves (MME) of gabbro/diorite composition.</p><p>Geochemically, STP shows distinct I-type affinity with a metaluminous to slightly peraluminous (ASI ≤1.02) nature. The samples are medium-K to high-K calc-alkaline in character. They exhibit depletion in HFSE (Ti, Hf, Zr, Nb and Ta) compared to large ion lithophile elements (Rb, Ba, Th, U, K) and presents negative Nb, P, Ti anomalies. STP displays slight negative Eu anomalies (Eu/Eu* = 0.7–1.2), enrichment in LREE and flat HREE patterns in chondrite-normalized spider diagrams. MELTS modeling (with initial parameters of 1–3 kbar pressure, 2–3% water and QFM-NNO oxygen fugacity buffers) indicate that compositional variations in STP samples can be interpreted as a result of open system processes (assimilation fractional crystallization) rather than a reflection of fractional crystallization in the upper crustal magma chamber. All thermodynamic simulations dictate a crustal assimilation, especially in the late stages of the magmatic process, with a MgO, Na<sub>2</sub>O and Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>-rich assimilant similar to the suture zone (IAESZ) rocks.</p>

AbstractA detailed field study to determine quantitatively the distribution of K-feldspar megacrysts, mafic microgranular enclaves (MME) and metasedimentary xenoliths has been carried out in the Monte Capanne pluton (Elba, Italy) with a view to evaluating the utility of this approach to petrogenetic investigations. Mafic microgranular enclaves are inferred to result from interactions between mafic and felsic magmas, while xenoliths attest to crustal assimilation occurring in the Monte Capanne magma chamber. In particular, we emphasize, based on our field data, that both processes are intimately linked, such that xenolith dissolution during assimilation was triggered by replenishment with hot mafic magma. It is suggested that the previously defined ‘San Piero’ and ‘San Francesco’ facies do not differ substantially, and are thus amalgamated and renamed as the ‘Pomonte’ facies. Results also indicate that the abundance of K-feldspar megacrysts is positively correlated with the volumetric abundance of MME in the Sant’ Andrea facies, which we link to a recharging, mingling and textural coarsening event that occurred at a rather late stage of magma-chamber evolution prior to emplacement. This study demonstrates how petrogenetic processes can be deciphered by detailed field quantitative analyses of granite-forming components, thus complementing geochemical investigations.
