Orta Anadolu’da eş zamanlı geç Kretase kalkalken ve alkalen magmatizma (Türkiye): Petrojenezde oksijen izotop kısıtlamaları
Orta Anadolu Kristalen Kompleksi içerisinde yeralan farklı türdeki kayaç tipleri geç Kretase magmatizması ile üretilmiştir. Bu kayaçlar üç farklı birime ayırt edilmiştir: (i) kalkalkalen, (ii) yarıalkalen/geçişli, ve (iii) alkalen. Kalkalkalen kayaçlar genelde metalüminüs (I-tip) olup, bileşimleri monzodiyoritden granite kadar değişir. Yarıalkalen/geçişli kayaçlar da metalüminüs (I-tip) olup, bileşimleri monzonitden granite kadar değişir. Alkalen kayaçlar genelde peralkalen (A-tip) olup, bileşimleri feldispatoyidli monzosiyenitden granite kadar değişir. Kompleksdeki tüm kaya oksijen izotop verileri 6.5‰ ve 14.8‰ arasında önemli oranlardaki ?18O değerlerine sahiptir. İlksel 87Sr/86Sr-143Nd/144Nd oranları, ve her iki oran-?18O diyagramları göstermektedir ki intrüzif kayaçlar dalma-batma ile değişikliğe uğramış mantodan türemiş ve ayrıca fraksiyonal kristalleşme ve kabuksal kirlenme geçirmiştir. Kompleks de farklı magmatizmaların başlangıcı için uygun mekanizmalar ya termal sınır tabakasının delaminasyonu ya da dalmakta olan levhanın (kırılıp?) yok edilmesidir (slab breakoff).A wide variety of rock types were produced by the latest Cretaceous magmatism in the Central Anatolian Crystalline Complex. These rocks can be divided into three distinct units: (i) calc-alkaline, (ii) subalkaline/transitional, and (iii) alkaline. The calc-alkaline rocks are mainly metaluminous (I-type) ranging from monzodiorite to granite. The subalkaline/transitional rocks are also metaluminous (I-type) ranging from monzonite to granite. The alkaline rocks are mainly peralkaline (A-type), ranging from feldspathoid-bearing monzosyenite to granite. Whole-rock oxygen isotope data from the complex have a considerable range of δ18O values between 6.5‰ and 14.8‰. Initial 87Sr/86Sr versus 143Nd/144Nd ratios, and both ratios versus δ18O values diagrams show that the intrusive rocks are derived from a subduction-modified mantle and also have experienced fractional crystallisation coupled with crustal assimilation. Delamination of a thermal boundary layer, and/or slab breakoff is the likely mechanisms for the initiation of the diverse magmatism in the complex
Zonation and structure of the Late Caledonian Newry Igneous Complex, Northern Ireland from Tellus geophysical datasets [abstract]
The Late Caledonian Newry Igneous Complex was intruded into the Southern
Uplands-Down-Longford Terrane just after final closure of Iapetus (c. 425 Ma).
Work to date has shown it to be composed of three overlapping, I-type, granodioritic
plutons and an intermediate-ultramafic body. The intrusions are aligned and young
from NE-SW. Petrographical and geochemical studies have shown the NE and SW
plutons to be normally zoned (more basic at margins) and the central pluton reversely
zoned, however to date no mapped internal division of the plutons has been published.
Interpretation of high resolution geophysical imagery, from the Geological Survey of
Northern Ireland Tellus project, has allowed internal zonation and structures not
previously described for the complex to be mapped. Ternary radiometric data show
the central pluton and the south-western part of the NE pluton to be relatively rich in
potassium, compared to the north-eastern area of the NE pluton which is thorium
elevated. Occurring within this thorium elevated zone is the intermediate-ultramafic
body and a similar mass in the vicinity of Kilcoo near Lough Island Reavy, which
show a mixed potassium/thorium signal. Magnetic data reveal striking magnetite
enriched rings inside the central and NE plutons, and also define the intermediateultramafic
bodies. There are also two circular, parallel structures visible on the
magnetic image. The inner defines the outer edge of the magnetic ring of the NE
pluton, while the other, outer structure cuts the country rock and north-eastern part of
NE pluton. Associated with this structure are outlying granodiorite masses such as
that mapped at Ballynafern ~ 6 km NNE of Rathfriland
Laccolithic, as opposed to cauldron subsidence, emplacement of the Eastern Mourne pluton, N. Ireland: evidence from anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility

Laccolithic, as opposed to cauldron subsidence, emplacement of the Eastern Mourne pluton, N. Ireland: evidence from anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility
<p>The structural evolution and emplacement of the Eastern Mourne pluton was investigated using anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility
(AMS) measurements (carried out on 112 oriented block samples) and structural data from the host rocks. From these new data
cauldron subsidence, as the emplacement mechanism, is disputed and evidence for an alternative, laccolithic style model involving
inflation is presented. This includes deflection and uplift of host-rock bedding close to contacts and the magnetic fabric
pattern, which has a gentle dome geometry, even close to contacts. The magnetic lineations usually plunge down-dip near the
external margins but otherwise have a general SSW–NNE trend that diverges northward. This suggests a northward-directed inflow
direction. The model for the emplacement of the Eastern Mourne pluton is a laterally fed laccolith, emplaced south to north.
The eastern margin is interpreted as a faulted contact facilitating the inflation of an asymmetrical ‘breached’ laccolith.
