英文摘要 | The Southern Dabieshan Terrane (SDT) has previously been divided into high-pressure (HP) and ultrahigh-pressure (UHP) terranes, and its regional extent and the tectonic nature of its boundaries are hotly debated topics. In this study, an eclogite-bearing area of 100 km(2) near Taihu is mapped in detail, and divided into Northern, Middle and Southern Zones on the basis of lithological characteristics. The Northern Zone consists of epidote-biotite gneiss and eclogite blocks, the Middle Zone includes granitic gneiss, biotite gneiss, eclogites and amphibolite, and the Southern Zone is composed mainly of garnet-bearing mica schist. The eclogites occur mainly as lens or blocks in the Northern and Middle Zones. The peak P-T conditions for 61 eclogite samples across the area are estimated using the Grt-Cpx Fe2+-Mg thermometers and the Grt-Cpx-Phe barometers. The results indicate three different P-T regions: 2.82-4.09 GPa/759-942 degrees C in the Northern Zone, and 2.00-3.54 GPa/641-839 degrees C in the granitic gneiss and 1.38-2.36 GPa/535-768 degrees C in the biotite gneiss from the Middle Zone. Combined with the spatial distribution of eclogites across the area, the P-T values for eclogites increase continuously from the south to the north, defining a reference 'geotherm' of 5 degrees C km(-1). However, some unreasonable apparent gradients can be established along two south-north profiles across the area, and display a P-T difference between the Northern and Middle zones. On the basis of the average P-T data for eclogites across the area, a gap of at least 0.3 GPa/20 degrees C exists between the Northern and Middle zones. By contrast, the P-T values of eclogites from the Middle zone show a coherent pattern with transitional characteristics from HP in the south to UHP in the north. We suggest that the SDT was a coherent slab during subduction, and was broken up by a major fault during exhumation, which was formed under UHP metamorphic conditions. |
