Av. Titov et al., Hybridization in composite basic-rock-leucogranite dikes of the Ust'-Khilok massif (Transbaikalia), GEOL GEOFIZ, 41(12), 2000, pp. 1714-1728
Composite basic-rock-leucogranite dikes of the Ust'-Khilok syenite-granite
massif have been studied. The character of contacts of microgabbros with le
ucogranites suggests coexistence of two magmas with different temperatures
and viscosities. The microgabbros are injected by granite veinlets separati
ng basic rocks into pillow-like Fragments. The substance of these veinlets
is intensely contaminated, but the outer rims of basic-rock globules exhibi
t poor hybridization of granites. Microgabbro bodies are composed of oligoc
lase, hornblende, biotite, K-Na-feldspar, and, less often, late pyroxene. A
ll of these minerals are uncommon to basic rocks. Early magmatic pyroxene a
nd plagioclase occur as relies. Studies of melt inclusions (MI) in minerals
of leucogranites, hybrid rocks, and microgabbros showed regular changes in
their homogenization temperatures. For example, T-hom of MI were estimated
at 670+/-10 degreesC in leucogranite quartz, 710+/-10 degreesC in quartz o
f near-contact leucogranites, and 730+/-10 degreesC in interstitial quartz
of hybrid quartz monzonite. For amphibole from hybrid quartz monzonite Them
Of MI is 755+/-15 degreesC, and for the late pyroxene in microgabbros it i
s 810-850 degreesC. Low crystallization temperatures and specific mineral c
omposition of the microgabbros indicate that they crystallized under the in
teraction with the host acid melt. It is shown that, during hybridization,
fluid components, K, Rb, LREE, Zr, and some other elements were supplied in
to basic magma. Most likely, owing to the injection of the acid melt along
contraction cracks deep into basic-rock bodies, the contacting surface of t
wo magmas increased, and their interaction became more active. The reason f
or weak hybridization of leucogranites near the outer rims of basic-rock gl
obules was, apparently, the differences in the rates at which basic and aci
d substances ascended along the feeder. The acid melt moved through the hea
vier portions of basic substance, thus removing hybridization products. The
substance of granite injections could not renovate during the ascent, whic
h led to strong hybridization of granites in the veinlets, up to formation
of quartz monzonites.
