摘要 | The Gansha Obo deposit is a recently discovered rare earth element (REE) deposit in northwestern China, with REE2O3 reserves of 0.6 Mt at 1.39-1.65 wt%. It is hosted in the Early Cretaceous Gansha Obo alkaline-carbonatite igneous complex. In this study, we present a detailed investigation of the carbonate mineral assemblage in the economic carbonatite veins in the Gansha Obo REE deposit, including the mineral textures, geochemical compositions, and U-Pb ages. The mineral textures and compositions show that bastna center dot site is the primary ore mineral, while parisite and synchysite are both secondary. In situ U-Pb dating of bastna center dot site and synchysite yielded ages of 141.8 +/- 4.3 Ma (n = 41; MSWD = 0.53) and 53.3 +/- 4.4 Ma (n = 85; MSWD = 1.7), respectively. This significant interval of ages cannot be explained by continuous magmatic-hydrothermal activity. The bastna center dot site U-Pb age reflects the timing of REE mineralization in the deposit. In contrast, the synchysite U-Pb age records a later tectono-thermal event that might have been related to Eocene collision between the Indian and Eurasian plates. Our results show that REE carbonate U-Pb dating is a powerful tool for understanding the precipitation of REE minerals and, potentially, for identifying regional tectono-thermal events. |
