Abstract

The study area is located in the western part of the Precambrian stock type of Sancheong anorthosite complex, the Jirisan province of the Yeongnam massif, in the southern part of the Korean Peninsula. We perform a detailed field geological investigation on the Sancheong anorthosite complex, and report the characteristics of lithofacies, occurrences, foliations, and research formation process and its mechanism of the Sancheong anorthosite complex. The Sancheong anorthosite complex is classified into massive and foliation types of Sancheong anorthosite (SA), Fe-Ti ore body (FTO), and mafic granulite (MG). Foliations are developed in the Sancheong anorthosite complex except the massif type of SA. The foliation type of SA, FTO, MG foliations are magmatic foliations which were formed in a not fully congealed state of SA from a result of the flow of FTO and MG melts and the kinematic interaction of SA blocks, and were continuously produced in the comagmatic differentiation. The Sancheong anorthosite complex is formed as the following sequence: the massive type of SA (a primary fractional crystallization of parental magmas under high pressure)${\rightarrow}$ the foliation type of SA [a secondary fractional crystallization of the plagioclase-rich crystal mushes (anorthositic magmas) primarily differentiated from parental magmas under low pressure]${\rightarrow}$the FTO (an injection by filter pressing of the residual mafic magmas in the last differentiation stage of anorthositic magmas into the not fully congealed SA)${\rightarrow}$the MG (a solidification of the finally residual mafic magmas). It indicates that the massive and foliation types of SA, the FTO, and the MG were not formed from the intrusion and differentiation of magmas which were different from each other in genesis and age but from the multiple fractionation and polybaric crystallization of the coeval and cogenetic magma.

연구지역은 영남육괴 지리산지구에 분포하는 선캠브리아기 암주상 산청 회장암복합체 (이하, 회장암체)의 서부에 위치한다. 본 논문은 산청 회장암체에 대한 노두별 상세한 야외지질조사를 통하여 산청 회장암체의 암상, 엽리, 산상의 특징을 조사하고, 산청 회장암체의 형성과정과 그 메커니즘을 연구하였다. 산청 회장암체는 괴상형과 엽상형 산청 회장암 (이하, SA), 철-티탄 광체 (이하, FTO), 고철질 백립암 (이하, MG)으로 구분된다. 괴상형 SA를 제외한 산청 회장암체에는 엽리가 발달한다. 엽상형 SA, FTO, MG의 엽리는 SA가 완전히 고결되지 않은 물리적 상태에서 FTO 및 MG 용융체의 유동과 SA 블록들 사이의 상호운동의 결과로 형성된 마그마 엽리이며, 이들은 동원 마그마의 분화작용을 통해 연속적으로 형성되었다. 산청 회장암체는 괴상형 SA (고압 하에서 모 마그마의 1차 분별정출작용)${\rightarrow}$ 엽상형 SA [저압 하에서 모 마그마로부터 1차적으로 분화된 사장석-풍부 결정-용융 혼합체 (회장암질 마그마)의 2차 분별정출작용]${\rightarrow}$ FTO (회장암질 마그마의 2차 분별정출작용의 최종 분화단계에 잔류된 고철질 마그마의 압착여과작용에 의해 완전히 고화되지 않은 SA로 주입)${\rightarrow}$ MG (최종 잔류된 고철질 마그마의 고화작용) 순으로 형성되었다. 이는 산청 회장암체를 구성하는 괴상형과 엽상형 SA, FTO, MG는 성인과 시대를 달리하는 서로 다른 마그마의 분화 및 관입 산물이 아니라 동일시대의 동일기원 마그마로서 다단계 분별정출작용과 다중압력 결정화작용을 통해 형성되었음을 의미한다.
