英文摘要 | The Jiaodong Peninsula, China, is one of the largest gold provinces in the world. During a short time interval in the Early Cretaceous, over 5000 t of gold were accumulated there. The mechanisms controlling the focused Au deposition and the origins of massive amounts of auriferous fluids are still controversial. Quartz-sulfide lode mineralization (Linglong-type) and disseminated/stockwork mineralization (Jiaojia-type) are the two major mineralization styles in the Jiaodong Peninsula. Herein, we conducted in situ textural, elemental and oxygen isotopic analyses using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), laser ablation-inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) and secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) on quartz from different hydrothermal stages and depths for three representative Linglong-type (Linglong deposit) and Jiaojia-type (Xiadian and Jiangjiayao deposits) gold deposits in the northwestern Jiaodong Peninsula, with the aim to constrain the ore-forming processes. The LA-ICP-MS analysis of individual fluid inclusions was also conducted to unravel the origin of the auriferous fluids. The results show that from the pre-mineralization to the ore-forming stages in the Linglong-type mineralization, the homogenization temperatures and salinities of fluid inclusions and the delta O-18(quartz) values change slightly, but the Al concentrations of quartz decrease continuously. Combined with the coexistence of CO2- and H2O-rich fluid inclusion endmembers, these trends indicate the increase of pH induced by CO2 degassing (fluid-fluid unmixing), which led to focused Au deposition. The quartz grains from the Jiaojia-type mineralization typically show a homogeneous texture with well-correlated lithophile elements (e.g., K, Al and Rb), which are distinct from those of the Linglong-type that are characterized by oscillatory zoning with much higher Al concentrations and delta O-18(quartz) values. These phenomena indicate that enhanced fluid-rock interaction occurred in the Jiaojia-type mineralization. In addition, the delta O-18(quartz) values show an increase from deep to shallow depths. In combination with thermodynamic modelling, it suggests decreasing fluid-rock interaction with decreasing depth. The above results corroborate that multiple mechanisms led to the efficient Au deposition in the Jiaodong Peninsula. Fluid-fluid unmixing typically occurred in the Linglong-type mineralization, while fluid-rock interaction was dominant in the Jiaojia-type mineralization. The different mechanisms might render mining challenging due to the changeable locations of favorable Au unloading. The LA-ICP-MS results of fluid inclusions suggest that the ore-forming fluids are metamorphic fluids rather than magmatic-hydrothermal fluids. In combination with the isotopic compositions of ores showing considerable mantle affinities and large-scale mafic underplating occurring beneath the study region, we propose a new genetic model that accounts for the origin of the auriferous fluids. The new model invokes the devolatilization of previously emplaced H2O-and Au-rich amphibole cumulates through amphibolite- to granulite-facies metamorphism in the middle-lower crust. It suggests an alternative way to generate the 'orogenic-like' gold deposits. |
