AbstractGem minerals at Lava Plains, northeast Queensland, offer further insights into mantle-crustal gemformation under young basalt fields. Combined mineralogy, U-Pb age determination, oxygen isotope and petrological data on megacrysts and meta-aluminosilicate xenoliths establish a geochemical evolution in sapphire, zircon formation between 5 to 2 Ma. Sapphire megacrysts with magmatic signatures (Fe/Mg ∼100–1000, Ga/Mg 3–18) grew with ∼3 Ma micro-zircons of both mantle (δ18O 4.5–5.6%) and crustal (δ18O 9.5–10.1‰) affinities. Zircon megacrysts (3±1 Ma) show mantle and crustal characteristics, but most grew at crustal temperatures (600–800°C). Xenolith studies suggest hydrous silicate melts and fluids initiated from amphibolized mantle infiltrated into kyanite+sapphire granulitic crust (800°C, 0.7 GPa). This metasomatized the sapphire (Fe/Mg ∼50–120, Ga/Mg ∼3–11), left relict metastable sillimanite-corundum-quartz and produced minerals enriched in high field strength, large ion lithophile and rare earth elements. The gem suite suggests a syenitic parentage before its basaltic transport. Geographical trace-element typing of the sapphire megacrysts against other eastern Australian sapphires suggests a phonolitic involvement.

Influence of sample pretreatment on the analysis of the high contents of rare earth (REE) and high field strength (HFSE) elements in geological samples by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES) and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) was studied. The rocks and rich ores of the Tomtor Nb-REE deposit were explored. Complete dissolution of the geological samples with a high content of “refractory” minerals has been achieved using fusion with a sodium peroxide. The results obtained by ICP-AES and ICP-MS after chemical dissolution are comparable with the results obtained by the XRF-SR without chemical pretreatment

We present systematic U–Pb age data collected by laser ablation multi-collector inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, precise geochemical data, and Nd isotope data for igneous rocks from the southeastern Lesser Xing’an Range (SE LXR). The results indicate that the formation ages as follows: Maojiatun alkaline granite, 207.2 ± 0.84 Ma and 204.6 ± 0.93 Ma; Diorite porphyrite, 164.5 ± 0.97 Ma; and Tieli syenogranite, 186.7 ± 1.50 Ma. The alkaline granite has high silicon, potassium, alkali, and FeOT contents; it is enriched in high field strength elements, Zr, Hf, Th, Rb, and U; is depleted in Ba, Sr, Nb, Ta, P, Ti, etc.; and has high ratios of 10000Ga/Al. It shows an A2-type granite affinity. The Tieli alkali-feldspar granite has high total alkali contents and is enriched in high field strength elements and rare earth elements and depleted in Sr, Ba, Ti, and P, and shows varying degrees of alkalinity. Rocks from SE LXR display similar εNd (t) values with corresponding to Nd model ages of 1095 to 813 Ma. The igneous rocks from the SE LXR are proposed to be derived from melting of the Neoproterozoic lower crust and potential magma mixing with ancient crystalline basement. The formation of the Maojiatun alkaline granite occurred in response to a postorogenic event following the closure of the Paleo-Asian Ocean. However, the SE LXR exhibited an extensional back-arc tectonic setting in the Early Jurassic. The Middle Jurassic diorite porphyrite could be related to the temporary stagnation of the westward subduction of the Paleo-Pacific plate.
