    Abstract:

    The composition of Machangjing alkali-rich porphyry was analyzed and the data obtained are reported in this paper. The results show that the porphyry has characteristics of potassium-high calc-alkali series or shoshonite series, with SiO2 being 61.56%~71.63%, averaging 67.30%(≥56%); Al2O3 13.38%~17.18%, averaging 15.44% (≥15%); K2O 3.36%~8.92%, averaging 5.35%; K2O+Na2O 7.75%~11.55%, averaging 9.08%; K2O/Na2O 0.65~4.00, averaging 1.49; and MgO 0.40%~4.59%, averaging 1.11%. The R1-R2 diagram suggests that the porphyritic magma was formed during the late orogeny and the s yn-collision. Geochemically, the porphyry is relatively depleted in such HFSE as Nb, Ta, Ti and rich in Sr(337×10-6~718×10-6), with Y being 6.2×10-6~15.8×10-6 (≤18×10-6) and Yb being 0.20×10-6~1.63×10-6 (≤1.9×10-6). The REE have experienced strong differentiation and are thus markedly enriched in LREE. LREE/HREE ratios vary from 8.02~24.01, Sr/Y from 40.5~57.4, averaging 48.2(>40 ), La/Yb from 17.5to 105.8, averaging 43.4(>20), Sc from 2.5×10-6 to 2.5×10-6 (<10×10-6), andδEu from 0.81 to 1.38. All these data indicate that the alkali-rich porphyry is geochemically characterized by adakite and belongs to C-type potassic adakite. The Machangjing porphyry is a kind of adakite and geochemically and envoirnmentally similar to the Yulong porphyry within the same ore-forming belt, which is somewhat of significance to geological prospecting.
