英文摘要 | Slab breakoff can explain the postcollisional igneous and metamorphic events in many collisional orogens and triggers the transition from initial continental collision to deep subduction. However, the relationship between the deep-seated geometry of slab breakoff and shallow tectono-magmatic events remains unclear. In this study, we report new geochronological, geochemical, and Hf isotope data for granitic rocks from the Qiangtang block. Three granitic samples yielded zircon U-Pb ages of 226-214 Ma and mostly gave negative zircon epsilon Hf(t) values of -20.1 to +0.57. These granitoids are K -rich, calc-alkaline, magnesian, and metaluminous to weakly peraluminous. We propose that the granites were generated by partial melting of compositionally heterogeneous lower crust in the Southern Qiangtang block. Our new data, along with previously published data for igneous and metamorphic rocks in the Qiangtang block, suggest that the Longmu Co-Shuanghu suture zone represents a remnant of the closure of the Paleo-Tethys Ocean, and that the Late Triassic tectono-magmatic evolution was controlled by slab breakoff after continental collision. The contrasting magmatic and metamorphic ages show that the two stages of tectono-magmatic activity in the Late Triassic were due to a change in the subduction angle of the continental lithosphere from steep (225-215 Ma) to shallow (215-205 Ma) during slab breakoff. Furthermore, we infer that slab breakoff of the oceanic lithosphere caused extensive crustal melting and reworking and initiated far -field subduction. Our results provide new insights into the slab breakoff processes that control the geometry of subducting continental lithosphere and related postcollisional magmatic and metamorphic events in collision zones. |
