Abstract | The origin of high Ba-Sr magmatic suites with adakitic features has remained controversial, although they provide important clues on the evolution of continental lithosphere. Here, we present petrological, geochemical, zircon U-Pb and Lu-Hf data from an Early Cretaceous volcanic suite of andesitic-dacitic composition in the Laiyuan complex of the central North China Craton, with a view to gain insights on the magma source, petrogenesis, and tectonic implications. The volcanic suite represented by rocks of andesitic-dacitic composition shows enrichment in light rare earth elements (LREE) and large-ion lithophile elements (LILE), and depletion in high-field-strength elements (HFSE) with no obvious Eu anomalies. They also show typical adakitic features such as high Sr/Y and La/Yb ratios, as well as high Ba-Sr concentrations. Zircon U-Pb geochronology indicates that these rocks were formed in Early Cretaceous during 131 to 127 Ma, with epsilon(Hf)(t) values ranging from -23.5 to -19.4, suggesting enriched lithospheric mantle source. The geochemical and isotopic data show that the enriched lithospheric mantle source experienced fluid-related subduction metasomatism. The distinct geochemical features of these identified in our study including high Ba-Sr concentrations and adakitic affinities were not only inherited from their magma source, but are also a result of fractional crystallization during magma evolution including amphibole-dominated fractional crystallization at depth and limited plagioclase removal. The volcanism in the Taihang Mountains occurred under extensional regime triggered by the subduction and rollback of the Paleo-Pacific slab during Late Jurassic to Early Cretaceous and consequent thermal-mechanical erosion of the lithospheric mantle. |
