AbstractAbstract
[en] Prismatic zircons and rounded and anhedral sphenes in gneissic and granitic rocks make linear array in 206Pb/204Pb-238U/204Pb, 207Pb/204Pb-235U/204Pb, 208Pb/204Pb-232Th/204Pb, 207Pb/204Pb-206Pb/204Pb, and modified (206Pb/238U)-(207Pb/235U) isochron diagrams. The average initial Pb isotopic compositions determined on these isochrons are 206Pb/204Pb = 16.93 +- 0.88, 207Pb/204Pb = 15.71 +- 0.15, and 208Pb/204Pb = 39.60 +- 0.87. The ages calculated from the slopes of these isochrons are from 239 +- 3 m.y. to 228 +- 3 m.y. which signify and early stage of metamorphism probably related to granite activity. The multi-stage evolution calculation (up to five stages) of the lead isotopic compositions based on Pb and Sr isotope data supports the idea that the ultimate source materials of granitic rocks are basic volcano-sedimentary materials. The remelting of once formed crystal materials is also a possible mechanism to produce granitic rocks. (J.P.N.)
