Abstract:
About twenty small dioritic intrusions around outer Fiskefjord, southern West Greenland, which are undeformed and unmigmatised, mark the final stage in middle Archaean accretion of continental crust, deformation and high-grade metamorphism in the Akia terrane. The diorites were emplaced into hot tonalitic gneisses, some of which were thoroughly retrograded from granulite facies prior to diorite intrusion. The diorites are themselves sporadically retrograded. A conventional zircon U-Pb age of 3017 + 12/-10 Ma has been obtained from one of the diorites. The diorites have SiO2 contents between ea

Two closely associated homodrome rhythms, starting from gabbros or diorites and comprising quartz diorites, granodiorites, adamellites, granites and leucocratic granites, are distinguished in the Magadan series. Both rhythms differ in petrochemical and geochemical features. In addition, granodiorites of rhythm I, composing the major part of the Magadan series rocks, exhibit the presence of ovoid inclusions of diorite and contrasting granite-leucocratic compositions. The inclusions are compositionally similar to diorite and leuco-granite dikes localized in granodiorites, and diorite inclusions

AbstractNumerous calc-alkaline granitoid intrusions in the eastern Kunlun Orogen provide a valuable opportunity to constrain the evolution of the orogen. The age and genesis of these intrusions, however, remain poorly understood. The granitoid intrusions near the Balong region, eastern Kunlun Orogen, consist of granodiorite, diorite and syenogranite. The granodiorite contains crystallized segregations, abundant mafic microgranular enclaves (MMEs) and small quartz diorite stocks. In situ zircon U–Pb dating reveals that the granodiorites and quartz diorites were emplaced between 263 and 241 Ma,

Abstract:
The newly discovered Zaorendao gold deposit is in the Tongren-Xiahe-Hezuo polymetallic district in the westernmost West Qinling orogenic belt. The estimated pre-mining resource is approximately 13.6 t of Au at an average grade of 3.02 g/t. Mineralization is predominantly controlled by NW-trending and EW-trending faults within diorite intrusions and surrounding sedimentary rocks. In the present study, in situ zircon U–Pb geochronology and Lu–Hf isotopic analyses of the ore-hosting diorite at Zaorendao were measured using LA-ICP-MS. The data suggest that the diorite was emplaced at ca. 246.5 ± 1

Abstract:
The Tietonggou pluton is mainly composed of gabbroic diorite and diorite. The petrology, zircon U-Pb age, and geochemistry of the Tietonggou diorite have been studied to determine its petrogenesis and metallogenic significance. The diorite samples have 56–58 wt% SiO2 and 11–14 wt% Al2O3 and are peraluminous and sodic (Na2O/K2O = 1.29–2.07). All the samples are enriched in light rare earth elements (LREEs) and large-ion lithophile elements (LILEs; e.g., Rb, Ba, and Sr) but depleted in heavy rare earth elements (HREEs) and high field strength elements (HFSEs; e.g., Zr, Nb, and Ta), suggesting su
