Abstract:Located in the north of Suizhou, syenogranite occurs in diabase as veinlike, and strikes NW—SE direction. SHRIMP UPb dating yields a weighted mean 206Pb/238U age of 648.8±1.9 Ma (MSWD=0.86) for the zircons from syenogranite, indicating that syenogranite belongs to Neoproterozoic. Lithochemical analysis shows that syenogranite is slightly metaluminous and belongs to the highK calcalkaline series. The syenogranite is characterized by high SiO2 (70.67%~75.75%), high alkali (K2O+Na2O=7.28%~8.53%), high FeOT/MgO (FeOT/MgO=26.37~35.50), low CaO (0.60%~1.53%) and MgO (0.07%~0.12%) contents. Chondritenormalized REE patterns of the syenogranite are characterized by weakly HREE depletion with Eu anomalies (δEu=0.33~0.56). The values of 1000Ga/Al and Zr+Nb+Ce+Y range from 2.60 to 3.41 and from 552.48×10-6to 648.87×10-6, respectively. The spider diagram of the trace elements shows the enrichment of largeion lithophile elements (Rb, K, Th, etc), relative enrichment of high field strength elements (Zr, Hf, Nb, Ta), relative depletion of Sr, P and Ti. All these features above suggest that syenogranite belongs to A1type granite. Combined with the regional tectonic evolution, it can be concluded that syenogranite formed in a regional extensional setting. During the Neoproterozoic, the tectonic regime in the QinlingTongbaiDabie area changed from compression to extension, under which the upwelling magma resulted in the formation of the A1type syenogranite.
