英文摘要 | The Salem Mafic-Ultramafic Complex occurs within the northern part of Cauvery Suture Zone (CSZ), Southern Granulite Terrane (SGT), India. The complex occurs as semicircular to elongated linear body with a thick mantle section and comparatively well-developed crustal section comprising different lithological units, also referred to as the Chalk Hills of Salem. The major rock types in the complex comprise ultramafic cumulates of dunite, peridotite, wherlite, pyroxenite, and hornblendite, mafic and felsic intrusions of gabbros and amphibolites, and quartzo-feldspathic alkaline rocks together with several ultrapotassic dykes. Geochemical studies of amphibolites from this complex indicate tholeiitic parent magma with enrichment of LIL elements (Rb, Ba, Th, and Sr) and are relatively more enriched than N-MORB as compared with arc-related rocks. The enrichment of LIL elements over the HFS elements and with distinct Nb, Ta, and Ti depletion relative to other HFS elements suggest the involvement of subduction-related components in the depleted mantle source and that the magmatism occurred in an oceanic convergent realm. The mineral chemistry of dunite and peridotite shows high content of forsterite (86.9-92.2) in olivine and high Cr# value (80.85-98.73) for spinel. The tectonic discrimination plots of spinel and olivine mineral chemistry together with clinopyroxene chemistry of amphibolites reveal arc signature typical of Alaskan type of complex. The U-Pb zircon analysis of quartz monzonite intrusion within the hornblendite from the complex yielded a weighted mean age of 819 +/- 2.4 Ma, suggesting that the complex formed during the Neoproterozoic and can be correlated to the Alaskan-type complexes described from the Arabian-Nubian Shield. |
