This study investigates the volcanic rocks in the northern Great Xing'an Range, identifying a suite of late Mesozoic volcanic rocks. Zircon U-Pb dating reveals that these rocks were primarily formed in the Early Cretaceous, potentially triggered by mantle-derived mafic melts inducing partial melting of the lower crust to produce intermediate-felsic magmas.
There are widespread Late Mesozoic volcanic rocks in the Great Xing'an Range, Northeast China. However, the precise age data and tectonic evolution are still controversial. In this paper, a suite of intermediate-felsic volcanic rocks and mafic volcanic rocks have been recognized in the Daheishan of the northern Great Xing'an Range. Zircon U-Pb dating constrains two groups of the crystallization ages at 129 Ma (dacite) and 124-127 Ma (rhyolite, rhyodacite and andesite), respectively. They all have magmatic zircon geochemical characteristics, including systematic positive Ce anomalies, weak negative Eu anomalies, and high Th/U ratios (average 0.84). The intermediate-felsic volcanic rocks show crustal signatures with high K2O (1.91-7.57 wt% and low MgO (0.19-2.78 wt%) contents. The zircon epsilon(Hf)(t) values mostly range from + 4.7 to + 10.2, with dominant two-stage model ages (T-DM2) of 530-878 Ma. Therefore, combined with previous data, the mantle-derived mafic melts may have triggered partial melting of the juvenile lower crust to produce intermediate-felsic magmas, and the source rock is considered to be an amphibolite. In addition, the trace element data of the volcanic rocks display arc-like signatures. The published and our geochronological data indicate that these Late Mesozoic volcanic rocks in the Great Xing'an Range were mainly formed in the Early Cretaceous with a peak range of 124-133 Ma. The large-scale Early Cretaceous volcanic rocks in the Great Xing'an Range were formed in an active continental margin setting related to the subduction of the Paleo-Pacific Ocean.
