This is an article in the field of earth sciences. Magmatic rocks of the Gondwana Belt are one of the most popular problems in basic geological research on the Xizang-Qinghai Plateau. In this paper, we analyze the physical origin and regional tectonic properties of the Gachatai granite using LA-ICP-MS zircon U-Pb dating method, combined with the geochemical characteristics of the rocks and various graphical methods. The rocks are characterized by high alkali (average Na2O+K2O content of 6.26%), potassium (K2O/Na2O=1.03), low TiO2 (average 0.50%) and quasi-aluminous (aluminum saturation index A/CNK=0.933~1.033, average 0.991) high potassium-calcium-alkaline rock system. Rare earth elements show negative anomalies at Eu, which is the Eu-deficient type, and Ce has weak negative anomalies; trace elements show enrichment of large ion-parental elements Rb, Th, Nd, La and K; high field strength elements Nb, Ba, U, Ta, Ce, Sm and Ti are deficient; reflecting the mixed crust-mantle type of magma origin and the presence of subduction oceanic crustal melting. The zircon LA-ICP-MS U-Pb isotopic age is (345.3±1.8) Ma, and its formation age is Early Carboniferous. The analysis of the regional geological data suggests that this magmatic event is a product of the formation of the northern part of the eastern Gondwana continent after the breakup of the Rodinia supercontinent. The project points go to I-type granite, the discriminant diagrams indicate it’s formed from continental island arc, going through time before plate collision to co-collisional orogenic movement, which indicates a long period time of magmatic evolution; the rock geochemical characteristics show the environment of magmatic evolution changed from the start of island arc(primary island arc)-development(early stage island arc)-maturement(full-grown island arc). |
