英文摘要 | The Neoproterozoic Shadli metavolcanics in the Eastern Desert of Egypt have been conventionally categorized as a bimodal island-arc association. The present study deals with Shadli metavolcanics of three areas: Hamama in the central and Darhib and Atshan in the southern Eastern Desert of Egypt. They contain both mafic and felsic compositions and display a bimodal nature. Geochemical classification indicates that the mafic end-members are tholeiitic basalt and basaltic andesite whereas the felsic ones comprise calc-alkaline dacite and rhyolite. Mafic end-members show flat to slightly LREE-depleted patterns comparable to normal MORB produced from a depleted mantle source. Major element data indicates affinity to arc-related non-cumulative mafic rocks. The obvious negative Nb and positive Pb anomalies, the nearly flat REE patterns together with pyroxene chemistry are characteristic of island-arc tholeiitic suite. Accordingly, we suggest that their primary magma was derived from partial melting of a depleted mantle source metasomatized by subduction-related slab fluids/melts. Felsic end-members exhibit magnesian character consistent with a relatively hydrous, oxidizing magma and subduction-related source. Their weakly peraluminous character and calc-alkalic to calcic compositions are characteristics of arcrelated magmas. Moreover, the negative Nb and Ti anomalies suggest an influx of subduction-related slab fluids/melts. Their SiO2 contents are too high to represent magmas directly derived by partial melting of a mantle source. So, the high SiO2 and Al2O3 and the low MgO contents suggest melting crustal source. The high Y/Nb ratios (> 1.2) confirm that they were generated from crustal source. Actually, their Ce/Pb ratios (average of 2.66) are affiliated to those of continental crust and contrast typical mantle values. The weakly peraluminous and sodic nature is a typical feature of I-type magma. Therefore, their magmas were most likely derived by partial melting of thickened low-K mafic lower crust. Several lines of evidence let us speculate a genetic relationship between mafic and felsic end-members and that the felsic rocks were possibly evolved from the mafic melts that derived from metasomatized mantle. These comprise the close proximity and a coeval nature; the subalkaline character with approximately continuous trend; the similarity of trace element patterns; the arc-like signature, and the well fitness of major element data of the felsic rocks with melts derived from low-K mafic lower crust. The general tendency of silica increase with alkalis from mafic to felsic end-members may indicate that the felsic rocks were generated by fractional crystallization processes of the mafic magmas in the area.
