    扬子西南缘中元古代构造演化和古地理重建:来自通安组五段碎屑沉积岩的指示

    Reconstruction of Mesoproterozoic tectonic evolution and paleogeography in the southwestern Yangtze Block: evidence from the clastic sedimentary rocks of the Fifth Member of the Tongan Formation

    • 摘要: 文章以扬子陆块西南缘中元古代中期通安组5段碎屑沉积岩为研究对象,通过全岩主微量元素地球化学分析,并结合已有的锆石U-Pb年代学资料,系统开展了物源特征与沉积构造背景的综合研究,旨在通过对全球同期地层物源的对比分析,探讨该时期扬子陆块与其他块体的构造亲缘性,并约束其在Columbia超大陆中的古地理位置。结果表明:通安组5段沉积物的主要物源为中酸性火成岩;该套地层形成于活动大陆边缘环境,记录了区域构造环境从聚合向碰撞转变的演化历程;锆石U-Pb年龄谱显示,中元古代中期扬子陆块西南缘与劳伦大陆西部、澳大利亚南部及东南极洲具有明显的亲缘关系,而其北缘则与劳伦大陆西部和西伯利亚南部具有密切的大地构造联系。上述证据支持了扬子陆块在Columbia超大陆中与这些陆块相邻的观点,为重建其古地理位置提供了新资料。

       

      Abstract: This study focuses on the detrital rocks of the Fifth Member of Mid-Mesoproterozoic Tongan Formation (TA-5) in the southwestern marginal Yangtze Block. Through whole-rock major and trace element analysis with existing zircon U-Pb age data combined, we conducted a comprehensive study to clarify the provenance characteristics, define the sedimentary tectonic setting, and furthermore reconstruct the paleogeographic position of the Yangtze Block during this period. Results reveal that the TA-5 sediments were primarily sourced from intermediate to felsic igneous rocks and deposited in an active continental margin setting, recording a regional tectonic transition from convergence to collision. Comparison of zircon ages reveals that the southwestern marginal Yangtze Block during the Mid-Mesoproterozoic has a significant affinity with the western Laurentia, southern Australia and East Antarctica, while its northern margin is closely related to the western Laurentia and southern Siberia. These findings support the adjacency of the Yangtze Block to the aforementioned blocks in the Columbia supercontinent, providing new evidence for reconstructing the paleogeographic position of the Yangtze Block in the supercontinent.
