摘要
Recycling of oceanic crust and sediments into mantle plays an important role in the chemical evolution of the Earth's crust-mantle system. Previous studies established potential dynamic linkages between the plate subduction and Hainan plume generation, so recycled materials have great effects on mantle source of the Hainan basaltic lavas. However, the existence of recycled sediments in the source is still unknown. In this paper, we report, for the first time, the Hf isotope data of the Cenozoic basaltic lavas in Hainan Island, and combine the new Sr, Nd, and Pb isotope data together with the previous data to constrain the composition and age of the recycled materials. Compared with the Mantle Array, εHf values of Hainan lavas are lower relative to given εNd. Moreover, the lavas have the characteristics of Eu/Eu*> 1 and Sr/Sr*> 1, but neither of them has correlation with Al2O3 and MgO, indicating that the positive anomalies of Eu and Sr are the characteristics of the source. These serval lines of evidence suggest that recycled oceanic crust plays a significant role in mantle source. The Ce/Pb ratios of Hainan lavas are positively correlated with εNd and εHf, and Nd/Pb ratios are negatively correlated with 87Sr/86Sr, pointing to the subducted oceanic sediments end member. According to the evolution model of the εHf-εNd and Pb isotopes, we conclude that the recycled oceanic crust and sediments in the source region are relatively young, and its age should be less than 1.0 Ga. The high-density eclogite derived from a mixture of recycled oceanic crust and sediments drives the material to sink into the lower mantle and even as deep as the core-mantle boundary, which then reacts with the ambient peridotite and produces the solid pyroxenite in the rising plume. With Hainan plume rising, the pyroxenite bodies melt continually to generate magma for the Hainan basalts. © 2019, Science Press. All right reserved.
