Abstract | The large Mo isotopic fractionations between diferent geological reservoirs make this isotopic system a potentially useful tool for constraining the origins of magmatism. However, the efect of magmatic diferentiation on Mo isotopes is still controversial. In this study, we obtained Mo isotope data for the Panzhihua gabbroic intrusion (i.e., including mineral separates of clinopyroxene, plagioclase, magnetite, and ilmenite). The whole-rock samples and mineral separates exhibit large Mo isotopic fractionations with delta Mo-98/95 values as follows: magnetite (-0.73 parts per thousand to -0.32 parts per thousand ) < clinopyroxene (-0.32 parts per thousand to -0.10 parts per thousand ) < ilmenite (0.06 parts per thousand to 0.36 parts per thousand ) < plagioclase (0.33 parts per thousand to 0.83 parts per thousand ). Iron-Ti oxides have Mo contents that are one order of magnitude higher than those of clinopyroxene and plagioclase. Mass balance calculations based on Mo isotopes and contents are consistent with an accumulated origin for the Panzhihua intrusion. Rayleigh fractionation modeling shows that the removal of magnetite and ilmenite results in significant Mo isotopic fractionation in the residual magma. Due to the low Mo contents of clinopyroxene and plagioclase, Mo isotopes are not significantly fractionated by the removal of these minerals. Therefore, our study highlights that fractionation of Fe-Ti oxides can cause considerable Mo isotopic fractionation; consequently, caution is needed when using Mo isotopes to infer magma origins. |
