Popis: Nd, Sr and O isotopic study on the spilite-keratophyre sequence in Xiqiu shows that its ?Nd values are in the range of 4.02–5.26, and its ? sr values, +1.4-2.6. According to the points of these data in the ? Nd-T, ? Sr-T and ? Nd-? Sr diagrams, the spilite-keratophyre is interpreted as being slightly contaminated by crustal materials. Its δ18O values are 3.9-5.0%0. The depletion of 18O in the rocks resulted from the influence of seawater hydro thermal alteration during or soon after the rock formation. Based on the isotopic characteristics and available geochemical data, it is believed that the spilite-keratophyre was formed in the well-developed island- arc environment during the Late Proterozoic subduction of the palaeo- Pacific plate beneath the southeastern margin of the Yangtze massif.
