Abstract
- The complex of leucocratic granitoid rocks at Přibyslavice (Fig. 1), composed of muscovite-tourmaline orthogneiss, muscovite granite and several types of pegmatites, is well known for numerous finds of interesting minerals like large almandine crystals (Breiter et al. 2005b), Li-Fe-Mn phosphates (Povondra et al. 1987), nigerite (Čech et al. 1978), columbite and cassiterite (Šrein et al. 2004, Breiter et al. 2006), lepidolite (Šrein et al. 2004) and oxy-schorl (Bačík et al. 2013). Less attention has been paid so far to the petrology of orthogneisses, granite and pegmatites and their genetic relationships. This study aims, based on the chemical composition of quartz and muscovite, to assess possible genetic links among all these rocks of granitoid composition including an associated cassiterite-bearing quartz vein with a B, Ta-rich metasomatic halo. Major elements in micas were analyzed using electron microprobe, and trace elements in both quartz and mica were determined using laser ablation-ICP-MS according to methods described in Breiter et al. (2017, 2020). About 550 spot analyses of quartz and 220 spot analyses of mica allow reliable definition of the typical composition of quartz and mica from all types of studied rocks (Tables 2, 3). Some genetic relationships are visualized in Figs. 2 and 3. The Přibyslavice orthogneiss is geochemically more evolved than petrographically similar orthogneisses through entire Moldanubicum as expressed not only in bulk rock chemical composition but also in trace element composition of quartz (higher Al, Ge and Li contents, Fig. 2) and muscovite (higher Li, Nb, Ta, Sn and W contents, Fig. 3). Pegmatoids at Přibyslavice and nearby Březí, forming small nests in orthogneisses with a gradual mutual transition, are interpreted as in situ anatexites. The direct genetic link between the granite intrusion and the quartz vein with cassiterite and B, Ta-rich metasomatites (tourmaline + Ta-rutile) is supported by the Sn, Nb and Ta enrichment of granite. It is highlighted by the relative distribution of Nb and Ta, with Nb preferentially bonded to muscovite in granite and Ta segregated into a fluid (see e.g. Stepanov et al. 2014). Chemical and mineral similarity between the granites and the orthogneiss suggests a common source lithology located deep below the present surface. During the first melting of the protolith in the late Cambrian (Vrána - Kröner 1995), a boron-rich melt was formed, which extracted most boron from the source and facilitated the origin of tourmaline orthogneiss. The second, Variscan melting of the same or a very similar protolith produced a melt slightly enriched in F and Li. We assume that the Přibyslavice granite represents only a small proportion of this melt, strongly enriched in Sn, W, Nb and Ta due to fractionation. Chemistry and mineralogy of several types of associated pegmatites suggest their relation rather to the granite melt than to the anatexis of the orthogneiss. The difference in their chemical composition including the content of water, F, and Li reflects the timing of separation from the parental magma and the distance of the melt transport upwards. During the transport, internal fractionation culminated in the "Li-pegmatite" by crystallization of its quartz-lepidolite core. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
