摘要(Abstract):
近年来,鲁西地区拉伸系土门群中报道了大量与Rodinia大陆汇聚时间相一致的碎屑锆石,而与Rodinia大陆裂解相关的碎屑锆石非常少见。为此本文对鲁西地区寒武系底部李官组进行了LA-ICP-MS碎屑锆石U-Pb同位素测年。测试结果显示李官组碎屑锆石以古元古代碎屑锆石为主体,新元古代碎屑锆石次之,含三个峰值,分别为~756 Ma、~1872 Ma、~2532 Ma。依据地层接触关系以及化石特征,李官组被限定为都匀阶(~514—509 Ma)早期或稍早时期沉积,并可与辽南地区大林子组和淮北地区猴家山组下部进行对比,均为华北克拉通在寒武纪海侵初期最早沉积的一套碎屑岩地层。除~756Ma年龄峰值外,李官组碎屑锆石的年龄均可在华北克拉通找到对应的岩浆事件。依据李官组沉积时间、多数碎屑锆石对应的岩浆事件以及最新的古地理模型,华北克拉通很可能是李官组碎屑锆石的源区。~756 Ma碎屑锆石与Rodinia大陆裂解的时间一致,被解释为与裂解相关的岩浆活动在鲁西地区的记录。
