摘要

Carbonatites host some of the largest and highest grade rare earth element (REE) deposits but the composition and source of their REE-mineralising fluids remains enigmatic. Using C, O and Sr-87/Sr-86 isotope data together with major and trace element compositions for the REE-rich Kangankunde carbonatite (Malawi), we show that the commonly observed, dark brown, Fe-rich carbonatite that hosts REE minerals in many carbonatites is decoupled from the REE mineral assemblage. REE-rich ferroan dolomite carbonatites, containing 8-15 wt% -REE2O3, comprise assemblages of monazite-(Ce), strontianite and baryte forming hexagonal pseudomorphs after probable burbankite. The Sr-87/Sr-86 values (0.70302-0.70307) affirm a carbonatitic origin for these pseudomorph-forming fluids. Carbon and oxygen isotope ratios of strontianite, representing the REE mineral assemblage, indicate equilibrium between these assemblages and a carbonatite-derived, deuteric fluid between 250 and 400 degrees C (delta O-18 + 3 to + 5 parts per thousand(VSMOW) and delta C-13 -3.5 to -3.2 parts per thousand(VPDB)). In contrast, dolomite in the same samples has similar delta C-13 values but much higher delta O-18, corresponding to increasing degrees of exchange with low-temperature fluids (< 125 degrees C), causing exsolution of Fe oxides resulting in the dark colour of these rocks. REE-rich quartz rocks, which occur outside of the intrusion, have similar delta O-18 and Sr-87/Sr-86 to those of the main complex, indicating both are carbonatite-derived and, locally, REE mineralisation can extend up to 1.5 km away from the intrusion. Early, REE-poor apatite-bearing dolomite carbonatite (beforsite: delta O-18 + 7.7 to + 10.3 parts per thousand and delta C-13 -5.2 to -6.0 parts per thousand; Sr-87/Sr-86 0.70296-0.70298) is not directly linked with the REE mineralisation.
