Abstract

The Hadong-Sancheong Proterozoic anorthosite complex occurs in the southwestern region of the Ryongnam massif. The geology of the area mainly consists of metamorphic rocks of the Jirisan metamorphic complex as basement rocks, charnockite, and the Hadong-Sancheong anorthosite, which are intruded by the Mesozoic igneous rocks. Hadong-Sancheong anorthosite complex is divided into the Sancheong anorthosite and the Hadong anorthosite which occur at north-southern and south area of the Jurassic syenite, respectively. The Hadong Fe-Ti-bearing dike-like ore bodies developed intermittently in the Hadong anorthosite with north-south direction and extend about 14 km. The Hadong Fe-Ti-bearing ore bodies consist mainly of magnetite and ilmenite with rutile, titanite, and minor amounts of sulfides(pyrrhotite, pyrite, chalcopyrite and sphalerite). The Hadong Fe-Ti-bearing ore bodies show a paragenetic sequence of magnetite-ilmenite ${\rightarrow}$ magnetite-ilmenite-pyrrhotite ${\rightarrow}$ ilmenite-pyrrhotite-rutile-titanite(and/or pyrite) ${\rightarrow}$ sulfides. Equilibrium thermodynamic interpretation of the mineral paragenesis and assemblages indicate that early Fe-Ti-bearing ore mineralization in the ore bodies occurs at about $700^{\circ}C$ which corresponds to oxygen fugacity of about $10^{-11.8}{\sim}10^{-17.2}$ atm with the decrease tendency of sulfur fugacity to about $10^0$ atm as equilibrium of $Fe_3O_4-FeS$. The change of ore mineral assemblages from Fe-Ti-bearing minerals to sulfides in late ore mineralization of the ore bodies indicates that oxygen fugacity would have slightly decreased to ${\geq}10^{-20.2}$ atm and increased sulfur fugacity to ${\geq}10^0$ atm.

하동-산청 회장암체는 영남육괴의 남서부에 선캠브리아기 지리산 편마암 복합체의 변성암류를 기반암으로 차노카이트(charnockite)와 함께 분포하며, 주변에는 중생대 화성암류가 관입 산출한다. 하동-산청 회장암체는 중생대 쥬라기의 섬장암을 경계로 북서쪽의 산청 회장암체와 남쪽의 하동 회장암체로 구분된다. 광체는 하동 회장암체 내에 남북방향으로 약 14 km의 연장을 보이며 단속적으로 산출되는 하동 함 철-티탄 암맥상 광체이다. 하동 함 철-티탄 암맥상 광체 내에는 함-철 산화광물인 자철석(magnetite) 및 티탄철석(ilmenite) 과 함께 함 티탄 광물들(금홍석(rutile) 과 티타나이트(titanite))과 소량의 황화광물들(자류철석, 황철석, 황동석, 섬아연석 등)이 수반하여 산출된다. 하동 함 철-티탄광체의 광화작용은 초기 자철석-티탄철석의 공생 산출로 시작되어 자철석-티탄철석 ${\rightarrow}$ 자철석-티탄철석-자류철석 ${\rightarrow}$ 티탄철석-자류철석-금홍석-티타니이트(${\pm}$황철석) ${\rightarrow}$ 황화광물의 공생관계를 보이며 진행되었다. 광체 내 공생관계와 및 열역학적 연구를 통하여 확인된 하동 함 철-티탄 광체의 초기 함 철-티탄 광화작용은 약 $10^{-11.8}{\sim}10^{-17.2}$ atm의 산소 분압조건($700^{\circ}C$)에서 $Fe_3O_4-FeS$ 상평형을 이루는 황 분압조건 (약 $10^0$ atm) 까지 황 분압의 증가에 의하여 진행되었으며, 그 후 황화광물의 산출은 산소 분압은 감소(${\geq}10^{-20.2}$ atm)되면서 황 분압이 증가(${\geq}10^0$ atm) 하는 환경에서 진행되었다.
