Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Hydrogen isotopic compositions of Archean basalts were determined by TCEA-IRMS technique. The analysis of more than 200 samples from 3.2 Ga Cleaverville Formation showed that dD values of hydrous minerals are clearly correlated with metamorphic grade which reflect ocean-floor metamorphism at that time based on metamorphic mineral assemblages. Also, the dD values are correlated with water content of the basaltic rocks as observed in modern seafloor basalts. These observations all indicate that hydrous minerals in the Cleaverville basalts preserve the isotopic composition of Archean seawater. The estimated dD value of the 3.2 billion-years-old seawater is -21±5‰, indicating deuterium content of Earth's seawater increased through the history of the Earth, potentially owing to hydrogen escape into space. Furthermore, we found igneous amphibole from the most D-depleted sample, suggesting not only Archean seawater but also Archean mantle was depleted in deuterium.
