Abstract
The Cretaceous volcanic rocks in the study area represented by andesitic rocks occupy eastern part of the Kyeongsan Caldera. The volcanic rocks comprise andesite I, andesitic tuff, andesite II, and andesitic tuff breccia in their stratigraphic succession, and andesitic porphyry. Andesite I is distinguished from andesite II in their color, texture, phenocryst mineralogy and petrochemisty. In outcrops, andesite I is compact and dark-green, and andesite II is brick red in color and porphyritic in texture. In their phenocryst mineralogy, andesite I contains olivine phenocryst in addition to plagioclase and pyroxene which occur in both of andesites. Compared to andesite II, andesite I is higher in $SiO_2$ and $K_2O$ contents and lower in CaO, MgO, MnO, $TiO_2,\;Fe_2O_3$, and $P_2O_5$. Major elements petrochemistry shows that magma series of the volcanic rocks spread widely from calc-alkaline to alkaline series. On the other hand, immobile trace elements petrochemistry shows that the magma series is calc-alkaline without exception, suggesting that the volcanics has experienced more or less alkali enrichment after their eruption. Trace element diagrams for discrimination of tectonic setting show that the volcanics of the study area might be originated from calc-alkaline continental volcanic arc.
