dc.description.abstract | Experimental studies of the element distribution between carbonatite melts and hydrous fluids are hampered by the fact that neither the fluid nor the melt can be isochemically quenched in conventional high-pressure vessels. In order to overcome this problem, we used a double-capsule technique to separate immiscible fluid and melt phases during and after the runs. The inner platinum capsules were charged with carbonate mixtures (CaCO3, MgCO3 and Na2CO3) and placed inside the outer capsules charged with distilled water and diamond powder. The latter was used as an inert trap for solids precipitating from the fluid on quenching. Carbonate melt and hydrous fluid equilibrated through a small hole left in the upper end of the inner capsule. The runs were performed in rapid-quench cold-seal pressure vessels at 0.1–0.2 GPa and 700–900 °C in the two-phase (fluid + melt) stability region. Both quenched melt and quenched fluid were dissolved in dilute HCl and analysed by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy. The results show that under all conditions investigated, fluid/melt partition coefficients for Ca and Mg are similar and several times smaller than those for Na. At 0.1 GPa and a water/carbonatite ratio of 1 (by weight), the partition coefficients are DNa = 0.35 ± 0.02, DCa = 0.09 ± 0.02, and DMg = 0.13 ± 0.01. Between 700 and 900 °C, the effect of temperature on partitioning is negligible. However, DNa increases significantly with decreasing water/carbonatite ratio in the system. Our data show that the release of a hydrous fluid enriched in sodium and simultaneous crystallisation of calcite can transform an alkaline, vapour-saturated carbonatite melt into a body of pure calcite surrounded by zones of sodium metasomatism. Thus, it is quite possible that carbonate magmas with substantial amounts of alkalies were common parental liquids of plutonic carbonatites. | |
