岩国-柳井地域領家帯の造構変成過程 Tectono-metamorphic processes of the Ryoke belt in the Iwakuni-Yanai district, southwest Japan

Abstract

岩国-柳井地域領家帯は主に低圧型変成岩(領家変成岩類)と花崗岩類(領家及び広島花崗岩類)から構成される。領家花崗岩類は古期花崗岩類と新期花崗岩類に大別され, 前者はシート状であり後者はストック状である。領家変成岩類は四つの鉱物帯(黒雲母帯, 菫青石帯, ザクロ石帯, 珪線石帯)に分けられ, これらと領家古期花崗岩類は三つのナップ(構造的上位から通津ナップ, 大畠ナップ, 柳井ナップ)を形成している。通津ナップど大畠ナップとの間には, 最高変成作用時の温度圧力条件において約3kb, 200℃のギャップがある。また, 柳井ナップは大畠ナップの構造的下位に位置しているが, 柳井ナップは大畠ナップよりも低温低圧の温度圧力条件を示す。このことは最高変成作用時の温度圧力構造が, 後の造構作用によって改変されたものであることを示している。菫青石帯には二つのミグマタイト帯(天ケ岳及び長野ミグマタイト)が存在するが, これらはより深部(約6kb)で形成され, 破砕帯に沿って貫入上昇し, 現在の位置に定置したものである。ミグマタイト中の含コランダムレスタイトの変成作用の解析結果から二つの変成時相(M0, M1)が識別され, M0変成作用は中圧型に対応することが明かとなった。M1変成作用はミグマタイトや領家古期花崗岩類の貫入直後に行なわれ, この変成作用はこれらの貫入岩の接触変成作用である可能性が高いパイルナップ構造の形成はM1変成作用後で, 領家新期及び広島花崗岩類の貫入前である。

The Ryoke belt in the Iwakuni-Yanai districtis composed of low P/T type metamorphic rocks (Ryoke metamorphic rocks) and granitic rocks (Ryoke and Hiroshima granites). The Ryoke granites are divided into the older and younger granites. The older granites exhibit a sheet-like occurrence, whereas the younger granites occur as stocks. The Ryoke metamorphic rocks are divided into four metamorphic zones (the biotite, cordierite, garnet, and sillimanite zones) and these are as three nappes; the Tsuzu nappe of the biotite and cordierite zones, the Obatake nappe of the garnet zone, and the Yanai nappe of the sillimanite zone in descending order of structural level. The grade of metamorphism increases from the biotite zone, through the cordierite and sillimanite zones, to the garnet zone, indicating that the order of structural level does not agree with the order of metamorphic grade. There are the great gap (ca. 200℃-3 kb) of metamorphic conditions between the cordierite zone and the garnet zone and inversion between the garnet zone and the sillimanite zone. The analyses of tectono-metamorphic processes clarify that the rocks of this district were metamorphosed through two phases (M0 and M1). In the cordierite zone there are two wide migmatite zones, the Tengatake and Nagano migmatites. The analysis of metamorphism of their restites indicates that the migmatites are composed of a mixture of granite and metamorphic rocks, which intruded along great fracture zones from the depth of ca. 6kb. The metamorphism (M0) of the earlier phase printed on the restites is nearly the medium P/T type. The peak metamorphism (M1) of the cordierite zone rocks occurred under ca. 3kb just after and/or during the intrusion of the migmatites and the Ryoke older granites, suggesting that the M1 metamorphism is a contact metamorphism by these intrusives. The formation of the nappes resulted in the ceasing of the M1 metamorphism. It was followed by intrusion of the Ryoke younger granites and the Hiroshima granites.
