摘要

Lateral variations in the amount of trapped intercumulus liquid in the Main Zone of the eastern Bushveld Complex are constrained by new Sr-isotopic, whole-rock and mineralogical data from three profiles that are separated laterally by ca.100 km and represent thicknesses of 551-1,127 m of Main Zone gabbronorites below the Pyroxenite Marker. An analysis of the An-contents (100 X Ca/(Ca + Na)) of plagioclase cores within the Thornhill (north), Roossenekal and Stoffberg (south) profiles show similar systematic, up-section variations from An_(66) to An_(59). In contrast, both the An-contents of bulk plagioclase separates and the Mg-numbers (100 X Mg/(Mg + Fe_T)) of orthopyroxenes show pronounced lateral variations from Thornhill (An_(67-61); Mg#_(67-61)), through Roossenekal (An_(64-58); Mg#_(64-55)) to Stoffberg (An_(59-55); Mg#_(59-50)). These mineralogical variations are interpreted to be the result of reaction between cumulus minerals and an increasing amount of trapped liquid from north to south. Modelling of the trapped liquid shift of orthopyroxene compositions suggests that the amount of trapped liquid in the cumulates increased from near 0 percent at Thornhill, through 10-30 percent at Roossenekal to 30-45 percent at Stoffberg. A two- to eightfold southward increase in whole-rock concentrations of P, Ti, Y, Zr and Ba is consistent with the trapped liquid model. However, the 14-fold increase in Rb from Thornhill to Stoffberg is too great to be accounted for by trapped liquid alone, but can be explained by local assimilation of partial melts of the country rock. Constant initial ~(87)Sr/~(86)Sr isotopic ratios of Main Zone plagioclase separates (0.7081-0.7085) in all the three profiles do not preclude assimilation of adjacent basaltic to rhyolitic country rock with initial ratios between 0.6924-0.7096. The southward increase in the amount of trapped liquid is ascribed to an increased cooling rate by enhanced heat loss and partial assimilation of country rock xenoliths in the distal cumulate sequence at Stoffberg.
