英文摘要 | The metasedimentary rocks of the Sefwi and Lawra volcanic belts in Ghana respectively were analysed for their major and trace elements and Sr-Nd isotopic compositions to constrain the provenance, palaeo-weathering conditions, and tectonic setting of the rocks. Geochemical characteristics of the metasedimentary rocks show low to moderate chemical weathering in their source regions and the rocks are interpreted to have been derived from mixture of mafic and felsic rock components. The LREE show much enrichment in relation to the HREE (La-N/Lu-N, 4.67-11.66). The epsilon(Nd) (2.1 Ga) values of -0.12 to +3.72 strongly suggest that the source of the sedimentary rocks was derived from a depleted mantle source and that they were most likely produced in an almost entirely oceanic environment with minor influence from the continental crust. The Nd model ages ranging from +2.05 to 2.41 Ga suggest possible contributions of a pre-Birimian crustal material (or Archaean?) in the source material of the volcanic rocks. The rock types that contributed as detritus to the Birimian metasedimentary rocks were mainly pyroclastics and basalts, and their REE patterns suggest that the contribution to the phyllites can be modelled after 20% basalt, 13% andesite, and 67% dacite. Similarly, the schists can be modelled as a mixture of 16% basalt, 34% andesite, and 50% dacite. The Nd isotopic modeling implies that the bulk of the sedimentary detritus was supplied by the Palaeoproterozoic volcanic arc with contributions of less than 10% from the pre-Birimian crust (Archaean?). |
