Experimental Study of REEs, Ba, and Sr Interphase Partitioning in Fluid-Magmatic Silicate Systems at T= 1250℃ and P = 2 kbar

摘要

The results of study of the alkaline silicate melt-hydrous saline (carbonate, sulfate, and fluoride) fluid system, as well as partitioning of ore metals (Ba, Sr, and REEs) between coexisting phases at T = 1250A degrees C and P = 2 kbar are reported. It is shown that aqueous solutions with the compositions studied cannot be effective concentrators and transporters of ore elements such as REEs, Sr, and Ba. The sulfate melt accumulates Sr and Ba in the alkaline silicate melt-hydrous sulfate fluid system, which provides evidence for the efficiency of sulfate ore extraction of Sr and Ba from the melt. The results obtained support the important oregenerating role of dense saline phases formed upon the development of liquid heterogeneity in fluid-magmatic systems.
