Abstract

Granitic rocks, from the Eonyang and the northwestern part of Ulsan area, were mainly studied from the petrochemical point of view. From field work, microscopic observation and the result of K-Ar ages, these granitic rocks are divided into six rock types of a, b, c, d, e and e', of which modal composition are given. Type a, c, e and e' are mainly granodiorite, type b is adamellite, and type d is granodiorite, adamellite and others (porphyritic rock, porphyry and felsitic rocks). Bulk chemical analyses of 22 samples of the granitic rocks are given. The petrographical and petrochemical characteristics of these rocks are discussed briefly. In the petrochemical compositions with their characteristic variation trends of several oxides and norm Or-Ab-An triangular diagram, type a, b and c show some similarity to that of San-yo granite of Japan and younger granite of Ogcheon geosynclinal zone, and then, type e and e', to San-in granite of Japan. But, some of granitic rock samples of type d are similar to San-yo granite and the others of type d to San-in granite because this type is composed of porphyritic rock, porphyry and felsitic rocks. According to the result of K-Ar ages (1976, Lee et al.) of rock samples from type a, b and care Cretaceous, on the otherwise, type d, e and e', are Tertiary granitic rocks. Judging from these evidences, granitic rocks in the area are correlated to the Cretaceous and Tertiary granitic rocks in the, southwestern Japan, that is, type a, band c are correlated to San-yo granite, and type d, e and e' to San-in granite.
