The Buya appinite- granite is a typical high Ba-Sr granite ernplaced at the northern West Kunlun orogenic belt along the northwestern margin of the Tibetan Plateau. The granite is dated at ca. 430 Ma using the SHRIMP U-Pb zircon method. It consists of alkaline feldspar granites with coeval appinite enclaves. The granite possesses high SiO2 (69.77-72.69%), K2O (4.44-5.10%) and total alkalinity (K2O+Na2O = 8.80-9.92%), Sr (655-1100 ppm), Ba (1036-1433 ppm) and LREE, and low HREE and HESE contents and insignificant negative Eu anomalies. Consequently, the samples have very high Sr/Y (74-141) and (La/Yb)(N) (37-96) ratios. On the other hand, they have low MgO (or Mg-#), Cr and Ni contents and low radioaertic Nd isotopes (epsilon Ntd(T)= - 8.4 to -10.4). The high Ba-Sr and other geochemical signatures of the granite also appear in the appinite enclaves except that the appinite enclaves have relatively higher abundances in these elements and higher epsilon Nd(T) values (-5.7 to -6.7). Elemental and isotope compositions suggest that the appinites were derived from partial melting of an enriched lithospheric mantle source probably induced by upwelling of the asthenosphere due to the delamination of a subducted slab. The granite was likely derived from partial melting of the mafic lower crust (with residual garnet), associated with involvement of minor LILE-enriched appinitic magma, followed by crystal fractionation of homblende, biotite, apatite and allanite. In combination with previous investigations on the evolution of the Western Kunlun, we suggest that the Buya high Ba-Sr plutons represent the end of an early Paleozoic crust thickening event after a terrane accretion on southern Tarim craton, and the beginning of a post-orogenic collapse phase in the Palcozoic West Kunlun orogenic belt.
