摘要

Three types of xenoliths were collected from a 80 m high vertical section of the Sasfell tuff-cone on Heimaey, Iceland. These types are: alkali basaltic (Type Ⅰ), sedimentary (Type Ⅱ) and cpx-bearing basalts (Type Ⅲ). They are distinct in hand specimen, thin section and geochemistry. Near the base of the eruptive succession only juvenile material and Type Ⅰ xenoliths are present. The middle section has Type Ⅱ xenoliths in addition to Type Ⅰ. Xenoliths of Type Ⅲ first appear in the uppermost xenolith-rich horizons, where they are found together with all other types. Juvenile Sasfell clasts are present in various amounts throughout the investigated section. A downward migration of explosion foci during the eruption is established based on the distribution of the different types of xenoliths in the tuff-cone (i.e. the appearance of Type Ⅰ-Type Ⅱ-Type Ⅲ xenoliths with increasing stratigraphic height) in combination with the observed relations in basement stratigraphy beneath Heimaey. In the beginning of the eruption a combination of high eruption rate and abundant seawater resulted in shallow-seated explosions depositing only juvenile material and Type Ⅰ xenoliths. The downward migration of explosion foci is suggested to be the result of lowered influx of seawater (due to the formation of a cone that reached 50-75 m a.s.l.) in combination with lowered eruption rate. As the basement stratigraphy beneath Heimaey is well documented by a 1565 m deep drill-hole, the depth of the explosions can be constrained to vary between less than 170 m in the beginning of the eruption and exceeding 820 m in the final phases. This is much deeper than previously reported for any Surtseyan tuff-cone forming eruption and consistent with the downward penetration of a diatreme.
