摘要:

Rb-Sr isotopic isochron dating of the volcanic rock samples from the Upper Cretaceous Half Three Point Formation on the King George Island is 71.33±0.3 Ma. Correlative study of εND(T)-147Sm/144Nd, 143Nd/144Nd-87Sr/86Sr, 87Sr/86Sr-Sr and 87Sr/86Sr-K2O/(K2O+Na2O) indicated that the volcanic rocks were chiefly derived from the depleted mantle source and generally were not mixed crust materials. Of the samples 6 were given the mean Sm-Nd model age (TDMNd) of 443.3±20.6 Ma possibly indicating the age of chemical variation event in the magma source of the study area. Features of the trace elements indicated that the rocks from the Half Three Point Formation are of typical eale-alkaline volcanic suite and similar to those from the Tertiary volcanic rocks of the Fildes Peninsula, being the same products of the island-arc volcanic activity.
