Research Abstract |
Phase relations in the systems cummingtonite(Mg_<50>)-actinolite(Mg_<50>)- plagioclase (An_0,An_<20>,An_<40>)-quartz-water have been studied within the melting range 675-850゚C under water pressures of 1 and 2 kbar and oxygen fugacities of the FMQ buffer. The experiments were performed in standard 'cold seal' pressure vessels (Koatsu-Kagaku MR01-10). In the system cummingtonite-actinolite-plagioclase(An_0)-quartz, cummingtonite (Cum) coexists with Ca-amphibole, liquid and vapor. Cummingtonite is separated from Ca-amphibole by a wide miscability gap. At 725゚C cummingtonite is present is present for bulk system compositions with up to 4.1 wt % CaO, and Ca-content in cummingtonite increases systematically with increasing bulk Ca content. The cummingtonite stability field is shifted toward the actinolite-rich end member. As compared to Ca-amphibole and cummingtonite synthesized at 5 kbar, they have the lower Na content at 1 kbar. In the system cummingtonite-actinolite-plagioclase(An_<20> or An_<40>)-quartz, cummingtonite (Cum) is always accompanied by actinolite or actinolitic hornblende. The phase relations are otherwise similar to those in the system with An_0 but Ca-amphiboles stability progressively increases with more calcic plagioclase component, so that the respective stability fields are shifted toward the cummingtonite-rich end member. In these systems(An_<20> or An_<40>) the stability field of cummingtonite at 1 kbar is similar to that at 5 kbar. As compared to cummingtonite synthesized at 5 kbar, it has the lower glaucophane content at 1 kbar. Chemical compositions of amphiboles in the three systems reflect their high temperature of equilibration relative to metamorphic conditions, with either single-phase amphiboles lying within accepted "miscability gaps" or coexisting compositions showing extensive mutual solid solution.
