| dc.description | The “Lomagundi-Jatuli event” corresponds to the most important δ13C positive anomaly (≥5‰) globally reported in Palaeoproterozoic marine carbonates (between ∼2.30 and 2.06 Ga). In the Tandilia System (Argentina), Río de la Plata Craton, this event was recorded in the basement marble of the San Miguel area. The calcite-diopside marble, hosted by biotite gneiss and intruded by 2.12 Ga garnet-leucogranite, was metamorphosed in amphibolite facies during the Transamazonian Cycle.
PAAS-normalised rare-earth elements (REE) and Y for the carbonate rocks are HREE-enriched and display positive Eu and Y anomalies, typical of primary precipitates from a mixed hydrothermal-marine environment carbonate. Additionally, a truly negative Ce anomaly for all the samples indicates that the depositional environment was oxidising.
Positive δ13C values ranging from +5.90 to +4.30‰ (V-PDB), and δ18O from +17.45 to +13.84‰ (V-SMOW) were determined in this marble, both gradually decreasing towards the contact with the leucogranites. These values indicate that devolatilization reactions took place during the crystallisation of a wollastonite-vesuvianite-grossular-diopside skarn generated by the leucogranite intrusions into the marble. δ18O values obtained from diopside and calcite crystals, in the marble sectors furthest from the contacts with leucogranite, allowed a 663–623 °C formation temperature to be calculated, considering oxygen in a calcite-diopside geothermometric pair. These temperatures are consistent with the metamorphic degree (amphibolite facies) reached in this portion of the basement.
Although the San Miguel marble shows petrographic and mineralogical evidence of regional and contact metamorphism, important geochemical and isotopic characteristics, together with its estimated Palaeoproterozoic age, indicate that the marble protolith was a marine carbonate deposited during the “Lomagundi-Jatuli event”. | |
