    Abstract:

    Objectives: Based on Petrology study and method of zircon LA-ICP-MS ages and geochemistry of Intrusive Rocks in Qitaidaban Area,to dicuss the age of the Paleo-Tethys closure and to explore It’s direction subduction. Methods:Zircon trace element analysis by the Northwest University of State Key Laboratory of Continental Dynamics completed,this instrument was the United States Agilent Company produced Agilent7500atype quadrupole mass spectrometer and Germany Microlascompany’s Geolas200Mtype laser ablation system.Calculating rhe zircon age used the standard ziecon 91500 as the external standard,elemental content used NISTSRM610 as an external standard,29Si was calibrated as an internal standard element.Data acquisition and processing used GLITTER,And used the Andersen to test the data for ordinary Pb correction,Ages calculation and concatenation drawing used ISOPLOT. Main quantity elements,rare earth elements,trace elements are completed by Industry Analysis test center of No.203 Researth Institute of Nuclear.Main quantity elements and Trace elements ( such as P, Ba, V, Cr, Rb, Sr, Zr, Sc) was analyzed by XRF method (FeO was analyzed by volumetric method),this instrument was an Axios Xray spectrometer manufactured in the Netherlands; all rare earth and trace elements such as Co, Ni, Nb, Hf, Ta, Th, U by ICPMS analysis,This instrument was an XSERIES2type ICPMS manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific. Results: The intrusive rocks of Qitaidaban area were composed of tonalite, quartz diorite and granodiorite. LAICPMS zircon UPb LA ages results show that their were 2147±2 Ma、2113±33 Ma and 2106±28 Ma,their belongs to Late Triassic. Geochemmical analysis shows that:SiO2=5896%~6752%,Al2O3= 1637%~1479%,CaO=341%~525%,MgO=147%~342%, K2O + Na2O )=436% ~64%,They belong to calcalkaline series. ∑ REE = 10127× 10-6~27104 × 10-6,REE fractionation is obvious ( LaN / YbN average was 1069 ),Which whith Eu is obviously abnormal.LILE(Rb, K and Th)are quite enrichment,but relative loss Ba;Strong loss of high field strength elements( HFSE) such as Nb, Zr, Hf, Sr, P, Ti. Conclusions: Analysis of the intrusive rocks in the study area,results show that they are formed in the continental margin arc environment of Non Itype granite,the material derived from the crust source for amphibolite facies basalt, involved in a small amount of mantle material.According to the genetic types of the intrusives and combined with the regional tectonic environment evolution.in the Late Triassic,the southern margin of the PaleoTethys occurred continuously underthrust from NE to SW, began to ocean—continent transition. At the same time,the intrusives was produced under such mechanism.
