Abstract

The emplacement ages, whole-rock geochemistry and Sr-Nd isotopic compositions of granitoid rocks from Cheongju area, South Korea, were investigated for delineating their petrogenetic link to the Jurassic Daebo granitoid rocks. Zircon crystals were collected from the diorite, biotite granite and acidic dyke samples in a single outcrop. Cross-cutting relationships show that the emplacement of diorite was postdated by the intrusion of biotite granite. Both rocks have been subsequently intruded by acidic dyke. The U-Pb isotopic compositions of zircon from the diorite, biotite granite, and acidic dyke were measured using a SHRIMP-II ion microprobe, yielding the crystallization ages of $174{\pm}2Ma$, $170{\pm}2Ma$, and $170{\pm}5Ma$, respectively, with 95% confidence limits ($t{\sigma}$). The emplacement ages are consistent with those determined from the above relative ages. The major and trace element patterns of the rocks are consistent with those of the Jurassic Daebo granitoid rocks, possibly suggesting a subduction-related I-type granite. The geochemical signature is, however, betrayed by the Sr and Nd isotopic compositions of these rocks. The isotopic signatures suggest that the rocks were produced either by the partial melting of lower-crust or by the mantle-derived magma contaminated by the basement rocks during its ascent and/or emplacement. In addition, the inherited ages of zircons of the rocks (ca. 2.1, 1.8, 0.8 and 0.4 Ga) suggest a possible assimilation with crustal rocks from the Gyeonggi massif and Ogcheon metamorphic belt.

청주지역에 분포하는 화강암류 암석에 대한 SHRIMP 저어콘 U-Pb 연대측정, 전암 화학 및 전암 Sr-Nd 동위원소 특성을 살펴보고 이를 대보화강암체의 지구연대학적 및 지화학적 특성과 비교하였다. 청주 화강암체 내부의 섬록암에서 $174{\pm}2Ma$ ($t{\sigma}$), 이를 관입한 흑운모 화강암에서 $170{\pm}2Ma$ ($t{\sigma}$), 그리고 이 두 암 석을 모두 관입하는 산성암맥에서는 $170{\pm}5Ma$ ($t{\sigma}$)의 저어콘 연대가 산출하였다. 각 암석에서 측정한 절대연령은 노두에서 측정한 상대연령과 일치하며, 한반도 중부에 분포하는 대보화강암체에 대한 연대측정결과 (170-175 Ma)와도 부합된다. 청주 화강암체의 주원소 및 미량원소 분석 결과는 한반도 중부에 분포하는 대보화강암류 및 화강섬록암의 분석결과와 잘 일치하며, 섭입대와 관련한 I-type 화강암의 특성을 나타낸다. 하지만, Sr과 Nd 동위원소 조성은 청주 화강암체가 부화된 하부지각물질의 부분용융 산물이거나 지각 물질의 혼염 가능성을 지시한다. 더불어 저어콘의 상속핵 및 포획결정에서 산출되는 2.1, 1.8, 0.8 및 0.4 Ga의 다양한 저어콘 상속핵 연대는 연구지역 주변의 경기육괴와 옥천변성대의 암석들이 동화작용에 의해 혼염 되었을 것으로 판단된다.
