摘要

Oligocene to Miocene postcollisional porphyry Cu deposits in the Gangdese belt in southern Tibet contain total resources of >20 million metric tons (Mt) Cu and are genetically associated with granodioritic-quartz monzogranitic porphyry intrusions with adakite-like signatures (e.g., Sr/Y >40). The adakite-like magmatic rocks in the southern sub-belt of the eastern Gangdese belt (east of 87° E) range in age from ca. 38 to 18 Ma, whereas those in the northern sub-belt range in age from ca. 21 to 10 Ma. Mineralization ages of the porphyry Cu deposits in the eastern Gangdese belt also show a decreasing trend from south to north, with the deposits in the southern sub-belt being ca. 30 Ma and the deposits in the northern sub-belt, 21 to 13 Ma. Many more of the adakite-like intrusions in the northern part are associated with porphyry copper deposits, compared with those in the southern part. The adakite-like intrusions exhibit high SiO2 (>60 wt %), Al2O3 (mostly >15 wt %), K2O (>2 wt %), and Sr (>300 ppm); low Y ( 80 km) into the lower part (~60–70 km) of the lower crust, together with direct input of fluid liberated from the subducting Indian continental plate, resulted in H2O-added melting of the Tibetan lower crust, generating H2O-rich adakite-like magmas in the eastern Gangdese belt. The adakite-like rocks in the western Gangdese have very similar geochemical compositions to those in the eastern Gangdese, and their generation can also be explained by the melting of subduction-modified mafic lower crust with input of ultrapotassic melt. However, in contrast, colder (5°–8°C/km geotherm) subduction of the Indian continental plate and the opposite younging trend from north to south for the postcollisional adakite-like and ultrapotassic rocks in the western Gangdese belt suggests that the generation of the adakite-like rocks in the west was triggered by a different geodynamic process, which is most likely roll-back and gradual break-off of the northward subducting Indian slab from north to south. We suggest that H2O in the postcollisional ore-related magmas originated from dehydration reactions in the upper parts of the subducting continental plate. Thermal structure of the continental subduction zone and the amount of continental crust subducted to depth seem to be two critical controls on the generation of porphyry Cu deposits in the Tibetan postcollisional setting.
