Full textThe knowledge of pressure - temperature - time paths in metamorphic rocks is necessary to the understanding of orogenic belts evolution. U-Pb method is commonly used for dating metamorphic events, but the link between metamorphic conditions and ages obtained on zircon is not straightforward. Oxygen isotopes are proposed in this study for likening zircon to garnet growth in metamorphic rocks of the Aegean domain. The study of four samples from Naxos island showed that this correlation is possible if (i) isotopic equilibrium of oxygen is reached between garnet and zircon during their formation and (ii) garnet and zircon remained in closed system for oxygen and lead after their formation. This method permitted to date the beginning of the exhumation of metamorphic rocks from Naxos between 40 and 60 Ma, and the beginning of the retrograde path between 13 and 19 Ma. The preferential formation of zircon between 40 and 60 Ma in rocks localised in schist rich zones indicate that pressure and fluid circulation are the parameters that triggered zircon formation during the metamorphism

Full textThis thesis represents an outcome of detailed field, microstructural, petrological and geochemical studies on two large Variscan migmatitic terranes, Gföhl Unit of the Moldanubian Zone in Bohemian Massif and Vosges Mts. In France. Obtained data are used to constrain the origin of the migmatitic rocks and for better understanding of the melt transport in the crust. We introduce a new possible model of melt infiltration from external source to explain the variations in the migmatite appearance and “reactive porous melt flow” for the melt movement on a crustal scale. In this concept melt passes pervasively along grain boundaries through the whole rock volume and changes macroscopic and microscopic appearance of the rock. We suggest that the individual migmatite types represent different degrees of equilibration between the host rock and migrating melt. It should be emphasized, that all these processes occur along a retrograde path during exhumation of the Gföhl Unit

Full textL’évolution progressive des conditions thermiques enregistrées dans les roches métamorphiques suggère que la géodynamique globale est passée d’un régime archéen peu mobile à la tectonique des plaques moderne telle que nous la connaissons. La présence de styles tectonométamorphiques contrastés au Paléoprotérozoïque implique que cette période est clé et transitoire, mais le moment de l’initiation de la transition, sa durée et son expression géologique sont encore largement débattus. Un des éléments de réponse se trouve dans la croûte moyenne à inférieure qui joue un rôle primordial lors de la collision continentale en stabilisant la masse orogénique en réponse au raccourcissement. La quantification du métamorphisme des séquences supracrustales de cet âge sert alors de base à la compréhension des processus accrétionnaires qui s’opèrent au cœur des orogènes en particulier d’âge paléoprotérozoïque, et permet à la fois de discuter du comportement des géochronomètres lors d’épisodes d’anatexie prolongés et d’investiguer la nature des terranes granulitiques. Une approche pétrochronologique quantitative est appliquée sur des séquences supracrustales de l’Orogène Trans-Hudson (OTH), combinant des observations de terrain, de la pétrographie optique, de la microcartographie élémentaire SEM-MLA et microXRF, de la géochimie des éléments majeurs et traces EPMA et LA-ICP-MS, de la modélisation d’équilibres de phases, et de la géochronologie Lu-Hf sur grenat et U-Pb sur zircon, monazite et rutile. Les résultats permettent de définir des chemins Pression-Température-temps-Chimie-Déformation (P-T-t-X-D) et de quantifier le métamorphisme prograde et rétrograde, l’initiation, la durée et les conditions d’épisodes de fusion partielle, ainsi que les taux d’enfouissement et d’exhumation. Finalement, nos résultats permettent d’estimer l’initiation de la collision continentale par un enregistrement métamorphique direct et s’insèrent dans la. Cette thèse s’intéresse au matériel de croûte moyenne provenant du sud-est de la Province du Churchill (SEPC), une branche de l’OTH coincée entre les cratons du Supérieur et Nord Atlantique qui affleure au Québec et au Labrador, Canada. Un échantillonnage ciblé le long d’un transect est-ouest permet de retracer l’histoire tectonométamorphique de la province, principalement affectée par l’épisode orogénique trans-husonien entre ~1900 et 1800 Ma. L’empreinte métamorphique de l’OTH est diachrone d’un bord à l’autre du SEPC, et principalement enregistrée dans les deux ceintures orogéniques du Nouveau Québec et des Torngat. On estime l’âge de la collision continentale à ~1885 Ma dans l’Orogène des Torngat et argumente que la marge occidentale du craton Nord Atlantique n’a pas été remobilisée durant cet épisode. Le collage des domaines de Kuujjuaq et de George, deux blocs crustaux du centre de la province, est daté à ~1836 Ma. La collision continentale dans l’ONQ est estimée autour de 1800 Ma et associée au développement d’une discontinuité tectonométamorphique entre la plaque supérieure de l’Orogène du Nouveau Québec (Domaine de Kuujjuaq) et son propre bassin d’avant-pays (Zone Rachel-Laporte) en réponse au raccourcissement. Une exception métamorphique est enregistrée dans le Complexe de Mistinibi, un des blocs lithotectoniques paléoprotérozoïques du SEPC, où l’épisode granulitique est daté autour de ~2100 Ma. On avancedes arguments pétrochronologiques datant le métamorphisme prograde à ~2150 Ma suivi d’une longue histoire suprasolidus (~55-70 Ma) entre 2140 et 2070 Ma. Nous interprétons que ce domaine a agi comme un bloc restitique rigide placé en position super-crustale lors de l’évènement majeur hudsonien, ce qui a permis de préserver son histoire métamorphique et empêché une remobilisation subséquente. Dans l’ensemble, ce modèle diachrone de collisions et collages crustaux successifs est en accord avec un régime accrétionnaire à collisionnel en contexte modérément chaud. Le SEPC expose alors des caractéristiques communes à des régimes tectoniques archéens et à la tectonique des plaques moderne.
The secular changes of thermal conditions recorded by metamorphic rocks suggest that the Earth’s geodynamic regime transitioned froman Archean stagnant lid toward the modern global plate tectonic regime. The occurrence of contrasting tectonometamorphic styles during the Paleoproterozoic Era imply that this time period was a pivotal point but the timing, duration and geological expression of this geodynamic transition are still debated. Some of the answers occur in the middle-to-lower crustal rock record which plays a major role during collision as it accommodates the shortening and stabilizes the whole orogenic structure. Thus, themetamorphic record of supracrustal sequences constitutes a direct window on the accretionary processes that occur in the core of Paleoproterozoic orogens and the nature of granulitic terranes. We apply a systematic integrated petrochronology approach that combines field work; optical petrography; SEM-MLA and micro XRF mapping; EPMA and LA-ICP-MS major and trace element chemistry; phase equilibria modeling; and Lu-Hf garnet and U-Pb zircon, monazite, rutile geochronology on supracrustal sequences from the Paleoproterozoic Trans-Hudson Orogen (THO). The results are integrated interm of quantitative PressureTemperature-time-chemistry-Deformation (P-T-t-X-D) paths that enable to asses prograde and retrograde metamorphic conditions, on set, duration and conditions of anatexis, burial and exhumation rates, and to discuss the behaviour of geochronometers during long-lived anatexis episodes. Our results also provide a robust framework to date the continental collision initiation by direct prograde metamorphic record. This thesis investigates mid-crustal material from the Southeastern Churchill Province (SECP), a branch of the THO squeezed between the Superior and North Atlantic cratons that outcrops in Québec and Labrador, Canada. A systematic sampling along a west-to-east transect of the SECP serves as the basis for deciphering its tectonometamorphic history, mainly related to the THOepisode at ~1900-1800 Ma. The THOmetamorphic imprint is diachronous from one side of the SECP to the other, and principally recorded in the New Quebec (NQO) and Torngat (TO) orogenic belts bounding the province. We argue that continental collision in the TO was initiated at c. 1885 Ma and that the occidental margin of the North Atlantic Cratonwas not remobilized during this event. We date the collage and amalgamation of the Kuujjuaq and George River domains, two lithotectonic blocks in the centre of the province, at 1836 Ma. We estimate the continental collision in the NQO at 1800 Ma and highlight the presence of a tectonometamorphic discontinuity between the upper plate of the NQO (Kuujjuaq Domain) and its own foreland basin (Rachel-Laporte Zone) that developed as a response to the horizontal shortening. A metamorphic exception is recorded in one of the Paleoproterozoic lithotectonic blocks, the Mistinibi-Raude Domain, whose granulitic episode is estimated around ~2.1 Ga. We provide petrochronologic arguments for subsolidus prograde metamorphism at ~2150 Ma, and a long-lived mid-crustal partial melting history from 2140 to 2070 Ma (~55-70 Myr). We interpret that this domain has acted as a rigid restitic block in a superstructural position during the 1.9-1.8 Ga THO, which has prevented its remobilization and any loss of its early metamorphic record. This diachronic model of successive collisions and crustal amalgamations agrees with an accretionary to collisionnal tectonic regime in a moderate thermal environment. The SECP exposes metamorphic and architectural features from Archean and modern plate tectonic regimes.

Full textThe Rif in northern Morocco and the Betic Cordilleras in southern Spain represent the western termination of the Alpine Mediterranean orogen. New structural and metamorphic data collected in the internal zones of the Rif and the Betic Cordilleras (Alboran Domain) allow us to draw a common tectonic framework for the exhumation of the Sebtide-Alpujarride Complex characterized by a roughly N-S direction of extension. P-T estimates in the high-pressure low-temperature (HP-LT) units of this complex show that this deformation is associated with nearly isothermal decompression, which probably took place between 29 and 20 Ma. In the lowermost levels of this complex, ductile thinning is coeval with high-temperature low-pressure (HT-LP) condition and a strong thermal event is recorded in the whole crustal sequence during the Miocene. New data from the external Rif show that the Temsamane units have recorded medium-pressure low-temperature with a minimum age of 23-20 Ma. The exhumation of these units is characterized by top-to-the-WSW senses of shear and is probably clustered between 17 and 8 Ma. These new data allow proposing an evolution scheme for the betico-rifan arc, first characterized by the subduction towards the north of the African plate probably during the Eocene. Then, the Alpujárride and Sebtide units were exhumed during the Oligocene and the Early Miocene with a roughly N-S direction of extension. During the Miocene, the exhumation is characterised by an E-W direction showing that the subduction regime probably change during that period

Full textMetamorphic soles are m to ~500 m thick tectonic slices welded beneath most large-scale ophiolites (usually ≤ 20 km thick). They typically show a steep inverted metamorphic structure where the pressure (P) and temperature (T) conditions of crystallization increase upward, from the base of the sole (500±100ºC at 0.5±0.2 GPa) to the contact with the overlying peridotite (800±100ºC at 1.0±0.2 GPa). Soles are interpreted as a result of heat transfer from the incipient mantle wedge toward the nascent slab during the first My of intra-oceanic subduction. Metamorphic soles are therefore direct witnesses of petrological processes during early subduction. Their mineralogical assemblage and deformation pattern provide major constraints on the evolution of the thermal structure, on the migration of fluids and on the effective rheology along the nascent slab interface. We present a detailed petrological, (micro-)structural and experimental study, with refined P–T estimates obtained with pseudosection modelling and EBSD measurements, on the garnet-bearing and garnet-free (natural and synthetized) amphibolite. We suggest a new tectonic–petrological model for the formation of metamorphic soles below ophiolites, which involves the stacking of several homogeneous slivers (without any T gradient) of oceanic crust to form the present-day structure of the sole. These successive thrusts are the result of rheological contrasts between the slab material and the peridotites of the upper plate as the plate interface progressively cools. This model outlines the thermal and mechanical complexity of the early subduction dynamics, and highlights the need for more refined numerical modelling studies

Full textFluid circulation in metamorphic core complex (MCC) were studied in the Apennines Alps (North Italy) and the Shuswap MCC (Canada). The MCC geological structure is characterized by an upper unit juxtaposed with a lower metamorphic unit along a low-angle detachment. The aim of the fluid inclusion study was to determine the nature and pathways of fluids during the late evolution of MCC. Results show the presence of several fluid reservoirs and mixing processes when reservoirs are connected: (i) aqueous-carbonic fluids, with dominant CO2 ± (CH4, N2), and rarely H2S, from a deep origin, typical of fluid-rock interactions in metamorphic formations. (ii) several aqueous fluids, of meteoric or deeper origin, and with variable salinity owing to various degree of interaction with the host rocks. Reconstitution of pressure-temperature conditions during fluid inclusions trapping enables to determine the P-T-x pathway of the different lithotectonic units in late stages of MCC evolution

Full textThe present geometry of the Eastern Tibetan plateau, made of the Songpan Ganze terrane and the Longmen Shan range, is probably due to a rheological contrast between the Yangtze craton to the East, and the Songpan Ganze, which bump into the craton margin in response to the India-Asia collision. We reconstituted the geodynamic evolution of the area from Neoproterozoic times to present to evaluate how the different orogenic cycles influence the thermal, mineralogical and chemical structures observed today. Studies of the crystalline massifs of the western margin of the Yangtze craton and of the San Dao Qiao ophiolite show that during the Neoproterozoïc times, the craton margin was a subduction zone with opening of marginal basin due to mantle plumes. Petrologic and structural studies of the Danba metamorphic complex allow determining that during the Indosinian orogeny (200-180 Ma), exhumation mechanism of the deep structural level of the complex is an extrusion along a ductile thrust. Plutons position relative to sutures zones in the Tibetan plateau lead to a model of double slab roll-back under the Songpan Ganze at the end of the Indosinian orogeny which explain the diversity of the granites. The double slab roll-back and the difference in deformation between the Songpan Ganze and the Yangtze craton lead to a slab tear along the craton margin. The complete delamination of the lithospheric mantle under the Songpan Ganze terrane can explain the present juxtaposition of a thick crust and thin mantle lithosphere against a cratonized one

Full textThe understanding of the processes and scenarios of the inversion of extensional systems, and more specifically of hyper-extended margins, in collision thrust belts is a major issue. The intracontinental belt of the Pyrenees is an example of inversion of hyper-extended margins, associated with a HT-LP metamorphism and then integrated within the orogenic wedge. The first part of this study is focused on the distribution of the HT-LP metamorphism associated with rifting and the exhumation of lithospheric mantle. A new set of TRSCM data allows the recognition of the geometry of the IMZ, characterized with temperature ranging from 400 to 630°C and shows the absence of a regional gradient at this scale. This study then shows significant temperature gaps across major faults and distinguishes lateral temperature gradients at the scale of the different basins constituting the IMZ, especially in the westernmost part of the belt, in the Nappe des Marbres Basin. This part of the study moreover shows the importance of a salt tectonics prior to the HT-LP metamorphism. The second part shows the existence of three main tectonics phases during the Pyrenean orogeny and the role played by the Late Triassic evaporites as a decollement level in the generalized allochthony of the IMZ. A left-lateral component along the main faults within and along the boundaries of the North Pyrenean Zone (ZNP) is also shown. The interpretation of these observations is that the IMZ and ZNP form a single tectonic unit, decoupled from the Variscan basement by the decollement in the Late Triassic deposits and displaced above shallow-dipping thrust faults inherited from the rifting episode, during the first stages of the convergence. Deformation mode is then thin-skinned and becomes thick-skinned when the two paleomargins collide, with the development of major steeper faults linked with the exhumation of basement blocks (North Pyrenean Massifs) that dissected the IMZ

Full textWestern Anatolia that represents the eastward lateral continuation of the Aegean domain is composed of several tectono-metamorphic units showing occurrences of high-pressure/low-temperature (HP-LT) rocks. While some of these metamorphic rocks are vestiges of the Pan-African or Cimmerian orogenies, others are the result of the more recent Alpine orogenesis. In southwest Turkey, the Menderes Massif occupies an extensive area tectonically overlain by nappe units of the Izmir-Ankara Suture Zone in the north, the Afyon Zone in the east, and the Lycian Nappes in the south. In the present study, investigations in the metasediments of the Lycian Nappes and underlying southern Menderes Massif revealed widespread occurrences of Fe-Mg-carpholite-bearing rocks. This discovery leads to the very first consideration that both nappe complexes recorded HP-LT metamorphic conditions during the Alpine orogenesis. P-T conditions for the HP metamorphic peak are about 10-12 kbar/400ʿC in the Lycian Nappes, and 12-14 kbar/470- 500ʿC in the southern Menderes Massif, documenting a burial of at least 30 km during subduction and nappe stacking. Ductile deformation analysis in concert with multi-equilibrium thermobarometric calculations reveals that metasediments from the Lycian Nappes recorded distinct exhumation patterns after a common HP metamorphic peak. The rocks located far from the contact separating the Lycian Nappes and the Menderes Massif, where HP parageneses are well preserved, retained a single HP cooling path associated with top-to-the-NNE shearing related to the Akçakaya shear zone. This zone of strain localization is an intra-nappe contact that was active in the early stages of exhumation of HP rocks, within the stability field of Fe-Mg-carpholite. The rocks located close to the contact with the Menderes Massif, where HP parageneses are completely retrogressed into chlorite and mica, recorded warmer exhumation paths associated with top-to-the-E intense shearing. This deformation occurred after the southward emplacement of Lycian Nappes, and is contemporaneous with the reactivation of the 'Lycian Nappes-Menderes Massif contact as a major shear zone (the Gerit shear zone) that allowed late exhumation of HP parageneses under warmer conditions. .

Full textThe tectonic evolution of the Southern Variscan belt is still poorly understood in comparison with that of the central European Variscan belt. That is mostly due to intense late-Variscan to Alpine re-working, which is particularly pervasive in the axial zone of the Alps. At odds, the Variscan rocks of the external domains of the Alps are little affected by the Alpine re-equilibration. For these reasons, these domains well preserve the Variscan record and are of the greatest importance for constraining the evolution of the Southern Variscan belt.This thesis is focused on the Variscan basement rocks in the Argentera-Mercantour Massif (Helvetic domain), Orobic basement (Southalpine domain), and Maures-Tanneron Massif (southern Alpine foreland). The latter is included as a benchmark for the Variscan belt just outside the Alpine area. The aim of the research is to provide new constrains on the Variscan and Alpine tectonic evolution of the external domains of the Alps, as well as of the Alpine foreland.This study required structural mapping (1:10.000 to 1:100 scale) integrated by microstructural, chemical, and mineral-chemical analyses. Metamorphic conditions that affected the Variscan basements have been estimated in terms of pressure and temperature and constrained in time by relative and absolute ages. By doing so, several stages of the Variscan and Alpine tectonics are here addressed, from early Cambrian to Tertiary times, and discussed in light of the geodynamic and paleogeographic reference models for both the Variscan and Alpine belts. The results refer to four main tectonic stages of Southern Variscan belt, from the subduction of the Variscan Ocean to the Alpine collision

Full textConvergence zones are key objects to the understanding of the lithosphere dynamics. They are the location correspond to places of intense deformation as evidenced by the concentration and magnitude of recorded earthquakes. On a larger scale of time and space, these deformations generally result in nappes stacking whose study offers access to the different structural levels involved in the mountain belt structuration. Precisely characterizing the structuring dynamics of these units as well as the parameters controlling this dynamic is a crucial step that would allow in particular a better quantification of lithospheric dynamics. The aim of this thesis is twofold: (1) clarifying the rheological behavior of rocks in the Pressure-Temperature (P-T) conditions of the eclogitic facies at the subduction interface and (2) characterizing and quantifying the influence of the overriding plate rheology, and more specifically, the role of its crustal part, on the spatio-temporal evolution of convergence zones. For this, I used a multi-disciplinary approach. First, I present a multi-scale analysis combining fieldwork and metamorphic petrology, which allowed me to study the deformation within High Pressure-Low Temperature (HP-LT) rocks at the subduction interface in the Mont-Emilius klippe (Western Alps, Italy). Then, I show the results of a quantitative study combining 3D and 2D thermo-mechanical modeling of convergence zones. The entire set of models allowed me to analyze different parameters influencing the rheological structure of the overriding plate, such as the initial geotherm, the thicknesses of the lithosphere and the crust, and the nature of the involved materials. All the performed models are constrained/compared by/with data from natural examples. The results of the study on deformed rocks within the subduction interface highlight the possible brittle behavior of rocks at pressure and temperature conditions on the order of 2.15-2.40 GPa and 500-550 °C, i.e., in the eclogitic facies. The recording of such a deformation mode is of paramount importance because it challenges the paradigm of subduction interface caracterized by ductile behavior without resistance. The results obtained with the numerical models show that the rheology of the overriding plate, as well as that of only its crustal part, has a first-order influence on the overall dynamics of the convergence zones by modifying the mode of subduction, trench kinematics, the mode of exhumation during collision, the timing for slab break-off and back-arc basin formation, the location and intensity of deformation within the overriding plate. The combination of petrology and numerical modeling methods allowed me to obtain a quantified analysis of the influence of the rheology of the lithospheres involved in convergence zones on the dynamics of these zones. This thesis presents new constraints for our understanding of the mechanical response of the lithosphere at different spatial scales as a function of its rheological structure. The new data presented here reveal the major impact of the lithosphere rheology in convergence zones. This parameter leads us to reconsider our current view of the convergence zones

Full textAs part of the search for new sources of clean and sustainable energy, the mechanisms for the formation of dihydrogen (H2) in intracratonic environments were studied. Natural emissions of H2 have been described in the vicinity of mid-ocean ridges and ophiolite belts. This natural gas production, as documented in the literature, is closely related to the metasomatism of mantle rocks which are rich in mafic minerals, through the serpentinization reaction. In Kansas (USA), intracratonic H2 seepages were revealed in the 80’s by studies of H2-rich wells. Our work is based on a new borehole D#2 (Kansas, USA), and two boreholes previously studied in the 80s, Heins#1 and Scott#1 (Kansas, USA). The D#2 well provides access to a moderately deep aquifer (~ 300 m) loaded with H2. The gas is also composed of N2 and CH4 similarly to the gases issued from ophiolitic contexts. Helium is present in substantial quantities -compared to preceding contexts- in these boreholes. A multidisciplinary gas/water/rock study was carried out to understand the processes generating the production of H2 in this geological setting, to quantify the gas so generated, and to determine the relationship of H2 with other gaseous species. The results of these studies in parallel with the regional geological setting and observed lithology allowed (1) to propose several scenarios to explain the observed associations of gas and (2) to discuss the origin and production process of H2, He and N2

Full textThe petrological study of garnet pyroxenites from the orogenic Beni Bousera massif (Rif, Morocco) brings important constraints on the conditions of its uplift. The garnet pyroxenites which contain graphite aggregates formed at asthenospheric levels, as indicated by the preservation of submicrometric diamonds in these aggregates. The original macrodiamonds belonged to the primary paragenesis along with garnet and pyroxenes as indicated by the composition of silicate inclusions now included in the aggregates. The primary silicates record temperatures in the order of 1200°C but could have formed at higher temperature. A first stage of uplift in the asthenosphere probably led to the graphitization of diamond. Further on, within a thinned and hot lithosphere (80-100 km thick), primary clinopyroxene first decomposed into lamellar Cpx and Opx before garnets were further exsolved. The growth of these secondary garnets took place below the blocking temperature of Mg-Fe exchanges between garnet and pyroxenes (ca. 1050°C at 15-20 kbar). Symplectite rims formed around garnet while the massif reached the lower crustal levels composed of kinzigite, at a depth of around 30-40 km. A late heating event led to partial melting of the pyroxenites as evidenced by the presence of silicate films preserved in the graphite aggregates and the occurrence of interstitial amphibole and plagioclase. Previous events of mantle metasomatism are testified by the presence of amphibole and phlogopite in a garnet websterite and in a spinel peridotite

Full textIn the Variscan Pyrenees DM and M magmatic complexes occur in various geological context and crustallevels. In the North Pyrenean the Castillon Massif consists of numerous sills of ultramafic (UM) and mafie (M) rocks intruded within granulitic metasedimentary rocks (leptynites and kinzigites). In the cross section of the Couret du Loup the succession of the different petrographie facies and their relationship can be observed. At the bottom of the cross section occur UM rocks (dunites, harzburgites, orthopyroxenites). They are overlayed by a mafic series. With from the bcttom to the top: norites alternating with type 1 amphibolites; alternations of layers of norites, gabro-norites, gabbros and type 2 amphibolites; type 2 amphibolites are associated with of sapphirine-bearing rocks more frequent in the top of the section. In the Gavarnie-Heas dome located in the Axial Zone of the Central Pyrenees UM and M rocks constitute within the infrasilurian anatectic series bodies metric in size and massifs kilometric in size: Gloriettes, Troumousse and Aguila massifs. The Gloriettes massif consists of norites with enclaves of DM ; the massif of Troumouse mainly consisting of diorites with enclaves of norites and the massif of Aguila consisting of diorites with enclaves of norites and of hornblendites. The comparison between the UM and M rocks occurring in the lower crust (Castillon Massif) and in the middle crust (Gavarnie massifs) shows that they strongly differ with regard to their occurrence type, their petrography and mineralogy, their chemical characteristics and their isotopie signatures. These series can not belong to the same magmatic event. This allows to proposedifferent origin and evolution for the Variscan basic magmatism from the North Pyrenean massifs in one hand and from the domes of the Axial Zone in the other hand. During the Variscan orogeny in the North Pyrenean massif of Castillon UM and M series originating from the partial melting of mantle crystallize within the granulitic crust whereas in the Axial Zone (Gavarnie-Heas dome) a more evolved UM and M series originating from the melting of basic and felsic series prior emplaced in the lower crust crystallize within the anatectised formations. The crystalIization processes of the ultramafic and matie series ended in bath domains during the lower Permian

Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: Anatexis is the first step in granite genesis. Partial melting in the lower crust may produce leucoratic features of unusual chemical compositions, very different from the final products of crustal differentiation. Therefore, the links that exists between some migmatites and crustal-derived granites can be ambiguous. This study is an investigation of the anatectic history of a high-grade terrain: the Southern Marginal Zone of the Limpopo Belt (SMZ), north to the Kaapvaal Craton in South Africa. The work involved an integrated field, metamorphic, geochemical and geochronogical study of the metasedimentary granulites from two separate quarries in the northern zone of the Southern Marginal Zone, the Bandelierkop quarry and the Brakspruit quarry, where Neoarchean high-grade partial melting features can be observed. The project has aimed to address two main issues: (1) to accurately constrain the pressuretemperature conditions and the age of the metamorphic episode in the SMZ, with implication for the geodynamic processes near the end of the Archean, (2) to investigate the fluid-absent partial melting reactions that control formation of K2O-poor leucosomes and to understand the chemical relationships in the system source-leucosome-melt–S-type granite. The P-T-t record retained in the Bandelierkop Formation metapelites, constrained by phase equilibria modelling as well as zircon LA-ICP-MS geochronology, gives an insight into crustal differentiation processes in the lower crust. Rocks in both quarries indicate high-temperature metamorphism episodes with peak conditions of 840-860 oC and 9-11 kbar at c. 2.71 Ga with formation of leucosomes (L1) during the prograde path. Minor leucocratic features (L2) were produced during decompression to 6-7 kbar. The end of the metamorphic event is marked by the granulites/amphibolites facies transition (< 640 oC) at c. 2.68 Ga. The maximum deposit age for the detrital zircons in the metapelites (c. 2.73 Ga) indicates a rapid burial process ( 0.17 cm.y1). Those evidences strongly support that the Southern Marginal Zone contains sediments deposited in an active margin during convergence, and that the metapelites were metamorphosed and partially melted as a consequence of continental collision along the northern margin of the Kaapvaal Craton at c. 2.7 Ga. The leucocratic features generated along this P-T-t path display an unusual chemistry with low K2O and FeO+MgO content and high CaO content. The combination of field observations, chemical mapping and geochemical analyses leads to the conclusion the major part of the leucosomes (L1) crystallized prior to syn-peak of metamorphism concurrent with melt extraction from the source. This study documents the details of leucosomes formation using field observations in the Southern Marginal Zone and numerical modelling. This work demonstrates that the formation of K2O-poor leucosome in the metasedimentary lower crust is controlled by the difference in volume of equilibration and heterogeneities within the migmatites. The partial melting of the source coupled with melt loss and water diffusivity within the melt transfer site is a potential mechanism to explain the chemical link in the sytem residuum– melt–S-type granite.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Anateksis is die eerste stap in granietgenese. Meganismes wat in die onderste kors aan die werk is, is verantwoordelik vir korsdifferensiasie en bepaal die chemiese samestelling van die graniet. Hierdie studie het’n ondersoek behels van die anatektiese geskiedenis van ’n ho egraadse terrein: die suidelike randstreek van die Limpopo-gordel, noord van die Kaapvaal-kraton in Suid-Afrika. Die werk het ’n ge integreerde veld- , metamorfiese, geochemiese en geochronologiese studie van die metasedimentêre granuliete van twee afsonderlike groewe in die noordelike sone van die suidelike randstreek (SRS), die Bandelierkop-groef en die Brakspruit-groef, waar Neoarge iese ho egraadse gedeeltelike smeltkenmerke waargeneem kan word, ingesluit. Die projek was gerig op die ondersoek van twee belangrike kwessies: (1) om die drukâtemperatuurtoestande en die ouderdom van die metamorfiese episode in die SRS akkuraat te beheer, met implikasie vir die geodinamiese prosesse naby die einde van die Arge ikum, en (2) om die reaksies onder gedeeltelik gesmelte toestande wat die vorming van migmatiete beheer, te ondersoek en die chemiese verwantskappe in die stelsel bron - leukosoom - smelt - S-tipe graniet te begryp. Die P-T-t-rekord wat in die Bandelierkop-formasie metapeliete behoue is, ingeperk deur modellering van fase-ekwilibria asook sirkoon LA-ICP-MS-geochronologie, gee insig in korsdifferensiasieprosesse in die onderste kors. Rotse in albei groewe dui op metamorfismeepisodes teen hoë temperature met piektoestande van 840â860 oC en 9â11 kbar teen ongeveer 2.71 Ga met vorming van leukosome (L1) gedurende die progradeerpad. Geringe leukokratiese eienskappe (L2) het tydens dekompressie tot 6â7 kbar ontstaan. Die einde van die metamorfiese voorval word gekenmerk deur die fasiesoorgang van granuliete / amfiboliete (<640 oC) by ongeveer 2.68 Ga. Die maksimum afsettingsouderdom vir die detitrale sirkone in die metapeliete (ongeveer 2.73 Ga) dui op Å snelle begrawingsproses ( 0.17 cm.y1). Daardie bewyse bied sterk ondersteuning daarvoor dat die SRS sedimente bevat wat gedurende konvergensie in Å aktiewe rand afgeset is, en dat die metapeliete gemetamorfoseer en gedeeltelik gesmelt het as gevolg van kontinentbotsing langs die noordelike rand van die Kaapvaal-kraton teen ongeveer 2.7 Ga. Die leukokratiese eienskappe wat langs hierdie P-T-t-pad opgewek word, toon Å ongewone chemiese samestelling met lae K2O en FeO+MgO-inhoud en ho e CaO-inhoud. Die kombinasie van veldwaarnemings, chemiese kartering en geochemiese ontledings lei tot die gevolgtrekking dat die grootste deel van die leukosome (L1) gekristalliseer het voor die syn-piek van metamorfisme tesame met smeltekstraksie van die bron. Hierdie studie het die besonderhede van leukosoomformasie met behulp van veldwaarnemings in die SRS en numeriese modellering opgeteken. Hierdie werk toon aan dat korsdifferensiasie in die metasedimentêre onderste kors deur Å ander volume van ekwilibrasie en heterogeniteite in die migmatiete beheer word. Die gedeeltelike smelting van die bron gepaard met smeltverlies en waterdiffusiwiteit tot in die smeltoordragterrein is ’n potensiele meganisme om die chemiese skakel in die stelsel residuum-smelt-S-tipe graniet te verklaar.

Full textTsavorite, a (V, Cr, Mn)-bearing green grossular, is hosted by graphitic gneisses or calc-silicates, often asssociated with dolomitic marbles, and belonging to the Metamorphic Neoproterozoic Mozambique Belt. Tsavorite is found either as nodules or in quartz veins (primary deposits), or in placers (secondary deposits). The mineralogical study of tsavorites suggests a new protocol to certificate their geographical origin, based on the V/Cr ratio, Mn content and delta18O. The study of the Lemshuku and Namalulu deposits in Tanzania has shown that the metamorphism of organic matter-rich and evaporites-rich sedimentary protoliths occurred at P = 7.0 ± 0.4 kbar and T = 677 ± 14°C, at 634 ± 22 Ma (U-Th-Pb dating on monazite). The metamorphic series cooled down at around 500 Ma (40Ar-39Ar dating on muscovite). Two metasomatic stages are linked to the formation of tsavorite : (i) diffusion metasomatism forming nodules at P = 5.0-7.4 kbar and T = 580-691°C; (ii) calcitic infiltration metasomatism forming quartz veins at P = 3.6-4.9 kbar and T = 505-587°C. These last have been dated in situ with Sm-Nd dating at 606 ± 36 Ma. Continental evaporites, deposited in a coastal marine sabkha with (Si, Ca)-bearing sediments, transformed into tsavorite in the case of the nodules, while the molten salts are associated with the formation of the quartz veins. The mineralisations are controlled by lithostratigraphy and structure

Full textExhumation mechanisms of high-pressure low-temperature (HP-LT) metamorphic rocks in subduction zones are complex and actively discussed. The study of fossilized subduction zones allows a better comprehension of these mechanisms, showing that exhumation of HP-LT rocks is mainly accommodated along crustal-scale ductile shear zones. This study aims at constraining the geometry, the kinematic and the timing of the tectonometamorphic history of the HP-LT Cycladic Blueschist Unit (CBU) cropping out in Greece. A main objective is to constrain the timing of strain localization at different scales during exhumation to better understand the mechanical behaviour of subduction zones. Three principal methods of investigation have been used, including i) a structural fieldwork that allows to characterize the geometry, the kinematic and the distribution of deformations, highlighting progressive strain localization during exhumation toward the base of the CBU and along shear zones, ii) a metamorphic petrology study aiming at determining the P-T evolution of the CBU, and iii) ⁴⁰AR/³⁹AR dating used to constrain the timing of the tectonometamorphic evolution of the CBU and the timing of strain localization within kilometre- to millimetre-scale shear zones showing different degrees of retrogression. We observe an obvious correlation between the intensity of finite deformation, the degree of retrogression and youngest mica ages. A major result of this thesis work is that the preservation of eclogite and blueschist-facies rocks does not necessarily imply fast exhumation rates. Our results instead suggest that the exhumation history of the CBU is relatively long, spanning over ca. 30 Ma. Consequently, it appears that the exhumation rate is not the main parameter controlling the degree of retrogression of HP-LT metamorphic rocks in the CBU compared to progressive strain localization during exhumation along a cold retrograde P-T evolution within the subduction channel
