Abstract

Major and trace elements, and Sr, Nd, isotopic composition analysis have been carried out on the Miocene basalt (Huangsongpu basalt, 20 Ma) 25 km to northeast from the Mt. Baekdu. The basalt has Na2O+K2O=3.5~4.7 wt.%, and MgO=9.9~11.1 wt.%, containing Mg-rich olivine (Mg#=75~86), clinopyroxene (Mg#=72~85) and Ca-rich plagioclase micro-phenocrysts. These data suggest that the basalt belongs to the alkaline magma series with a primitive nature, crystallized at a near-liquidus. The basalt is also characterized by high Cr (394~479 ppm) and Ni (389~519 ppm) contents, Nb-Ta enrichment anomalies and OIB-like trace elements patterns, displaying identical signatures to those of typical intraplate magmas. The rare earth element (REE) patterns of the basalt and high (Gd/Yb)sample/(Gd/Yb)PM ratio (=2.8~3.5) suggest the parental magma was derived from relatively low-degree (3~5%) partial melting of garnet peridotite. The 143Nd/144Nd and 87Sr/86Sr composition of the basalt are higher than those of BSE. The high 87Sr/86Sr (= ~0.7058) ratio of the basalt indicates a contribution of recycled ancient oceanic crust or continental crust on the Pacific slab suggesting that the Huangsongpu basalt was generated from metasomatized mantle.

백두산 북동쪽으로 약 25 km 떨어져있는 지역의 마이오세 현무암(황송푸 현무암, 20 Ma)에 대한 주성분원소와 미량원소, Sr-Nd 동위원소 조성에 대한 연구가 수행되었다. 황송푸 현무암은 비현정질 암석으로 Na2O+K2O=3.5~4.7 wt.%, MgO=9.9~11.1 wt.%을 보인다. Mg 성분이 풍부한 감람석(Mg#=75~86)과 단사휘석(Mg#=72~85), Ca성분이 풍부한 사장석 미반정을 함유하고 있다. 이 현무암은 경희토류원소 부화가 나타나는 해양도현무암과 유사한 미량원소 패턴을 보이고, 높은 Cr(394~479 ppm)과 Ni(389~519 ppm) 성분, Nb-Ta 부화 이상치, Rb과 Ba을 포함하는 LILE가 부화되어 있는 특징을 보인다. 이러한 조직과 주성분원소/미량원소조성 데이터는 황송푸 현무암이 알칼리 마그마 계열에 속하는 원시적인 마그마임을 나타낸다. 황송푸 마그마는 상승하는 도중에 분별결정작용, 지각오염, 마그마혼합과 같은 분화작용을 거의 경험하지 않은 액상선 환경에서 고화된 암석으로 이는 황송푸 현무암이 부분용융이 일어났던 맨틀에서의 특성을 지니고 있음을 반영한다. 황송푸 현무암의 높은 (Gd/Yb)sample/(Gd/Yb)PM 비율(2.8~3.5)은 황송푸 현무암이 판내부 환경에서 형성된 마그마로써 석류석이 존재하는 맨틀에서 페리도타이트의 낮은 부분용융(3~5%)으로 형성되었다. BSE보다 모두 높은 143Nd/144Nd와 87Sr/86Sr 성분을 보이는 황송푸 현무암은 이 지역 아래 부화된 맨틀영역이 존재한다는 것을 의미한다. 황송포 현무암은 과거(ancient)의 태평양판 섭입대에 의해 공급되어 재활용된 해양지각 혹은 대륙지각으로 교대작용을 경험한 맨틀에서 부분용융에 의해 형성되었다.
