Ultra-depleted 2.05 Ga komatiites of Finnish Lapland: Products of grainy late accretion or core-mantle interaction?

Résumé

Rhenium-Os, Ptsingle bondOs, Smsingle bondNd, Lusingle bondHf, and Hfsingle bondW isotope data, together with lithophile trace element and highly siderophile element (HSE: Re, Os, Ir, Ru, Pt, and Pd) abundances, are reported for 2.05 Ga Jeesiörova and Kevitsa komatiites from the Central Lapland Greenstone Belt, Fennoscandia, Finland. Both komatiites are closely genetically related, with the Kevitsa dikes having served as feeding magma conduits to the Jeesiörova pillowed and massive lavas. The parental komatiite magma is estimated to have contained ~25 wt% MgO and was, thus, derived from a mantle source at least as hot as those of some of its late Archean counterparts. A suite of Jeesiörova and Kevitsa whole-rock komatiite samples and olivine and chromite separates define an internal Resingle bondOs isochron with an age of 2049 ± 13 Ma and an initial γ187Os = −0.2 ± 0.2 (2SE), indicating long-term chondritic Re/Os in the mantle source. By contrast, Ptsingle bondOs data for a set of Jeesiörova chromite separates define an average initial μ186Os = +29 ± 2 (2SE), indicating a long-term history of suprachondritic Pt/Os in the mantle source. The absolute HSE abundances in the mantle source of the Jeesiörova-Kevitsa komatiite system are estimated to have been 120 ± 5% of the present-day Bulk Silicate Earth (BSE). This is the first komatiite system for which excess HSE in the mantle source, relative to modern BSE, has been documented. The 147Smsingle bond143Nd and 176Lusingle bond176Hf data yield isochron ages and initial ratios of, respectively, 2046 ± 22 Ma with ε143Nd = +3.7 ± 0.3, and 2072 ± 20 Ma with ε176Hf = +8.7 ± 0.4 (2SE), indicating a long-term history of depletions of Nd relative to Sm, and Hf relative to Lu. The measured μ182W = +1.5 ± 3.3 is indistinguishable from the modern mantle value. Despite being strongly depleted in highly incompatible lithophile trace elements, the Th-Nb-La systematics of the komatiites indicate ~1% crustal contamination of the original komatiite magma, assuming the contaminant was similar in composition to the calculated Fennoscandian Tonalite Average (FTA). This level of contamination would have also significantly modified the Nd, Hf, and W isotope compositions of the original komatiitic magma, but not the Os isotope compositions or HSE abundances. The calculated original komatiite magma, corrected for the effects of crustal contamination, would have had initial ε143Nd ~ +4.9, ε176Hf ~ +10.2, and μ182W ~ −10. Our modeling indicates that the initial 186,187Os/188Os isotopic compositions and suprachondritic HSE abundances, coupled with the projected negative μ182W, are best explained by either (1) derivation from a mantle domain characterized by an excess of late accreted, differentiated planetesimal core metal, i.e., “grainy” late accretion, or (2) addition of chemically fractionated terrestrial core metal to the mantle source domain of the komatiites. The presence of these characteristics in the Jeesiörova-Kevitsa komatiite mantle source provides further evidence for the early creation and long-term survival of chemically diverse domains within the mantle.
