Komatiite, characterized by high MgO content and low H₂O concentration, is crucial to understanding the Archean magma processes and crust–mantle differentiation. Although well preserved in most cratons, Archean komatiites are scarce in the North China Craton (NCC). The Sujiagou komatiites, as the most typical Archean komatiites in China, were exposed in the Luxi terrane, but their geochronology and petrogenesis types remain controversial. In this study, our new Re–Os data indicate the Sujiagou komatiites originated before 2.90 Ga. The felsic zircons discovered in the komatiites, coupled with Nb–Th–La simulation, suggest ∼ 2 % crustal contamination of the komatiites. Thus, the least-altered, spinifex- and massive-texture samples that underwent unconspicuous crustal contamination were selected as proximate proxies for the primary magma composition. The Al/Ti ratios of the Sujiagou komatiites are comparable to or slightly exceed those of chondrite, suggesting they were aluminium-undepleted komatiites and formed at ∼ 8 GPa. The primitive mantle-normalized rare earth element (REE) patterns show depleted light REE and flat heavy REE, suggesting approximately 50 % partial melting based on REE simulation. Additionally, the komatiites exhibit slightly depleted Os isotope ratios, with an average γ_Os(t) value of -0.3, indicating the magma source is comparable to or slightly depleted to chondrite. Simulation of the relevant Nb/Zr and La/Sm_PM ratios further suggests the mantle source became slightly depleted due to ca. 1 % melt extraction. Furthermore, the Mg isotopic composition of the Sujiagou komatiites (δ²⁶Mg = -0.23 ± 0.03 ‰) is consistent with that of the primitive mantle, indicating the absence of recycled carbonate material in the mantle source. Both Re–Os and Mg isotopes reveal limited involvement of crustal or carbonate material in the mantle source, implying the absence of oceanic slab subduction in the Luxi terrane during this time. The formation of the Sujiagou komatiites can be attributed to a hot mantle plume, resulting from high potential and eruption temperature. The identification of felsic zircons in the Sujiagou komatiites indicates the presence of an ancient continental nucleus in the Luxi terrane. Combined with the spatially adjacent terrigenous clastic sedimentary rocks, we suggest that the Sujiagou komatiites erupted most likely in a continental margin of the old terrane.
