  • Mafic granulite xenoliths are found in precambrian porphyroblastic gneiss of the Mt. Jiri area, SW Sobaegsan massif, Korea. The xenoliths are rounded to ellipsoidal in shape, 50-100 cm in length and coarse-grained with granoblastic and foliated texture. The xenoliths consist of orthopyroxene, garnet, biotite, plagioclase, quartz, ilmenite and secondary orthoamphibole. Orthopyroxene is mostly resorbed and rimmed by coronitic orthoamphiboles. Garnets occur as porphyblasts and are zoned with higher pyrope content in cores than in rims. Geothermo-barometry results yield conditions of about $800-850^{\circ}C$, 6 kb and $500^{\circ}C$, 4 kb for early and retrograde stages of equilibration, respectively. According to available geochronological data, it is suggested that the granulite facies metamorphism occurred prior to 2.1-1.9Ga and that the area was superimposed by the high-grade (over $600-700^{\circ}C$) metamorphism between 1.9-1.7Ga, followed by cooling during uplift.

  • The basal metamorphic complex of the central Sobaegsan Massif consists of pelitic & psammitic paragneisses, various kinds of granitic gneisses and lesser amounts of amphibolite. The granitic gneisses could be clearly distinguished from the pelitic and psammitic paragneisses on the basis of major-element geochemistry. A number of geochemical plots reveals that granitic gneisses were derived from calc - alkaline igneous rocks.

  • Granite gneiss, pophyroblastic gneiss and leucocratic gneiss are widely distributed in the Seungju-Suncheon area, the southwestern part of the Sobacksan Massif, Korea. These orthogneisses show intrusive relationships in outcrops of the study area. This study focuses on the geochemical properties and the tectonic environments for the original rocks of these orthogneisses. The pophyroblastic gneiss is plotted in diorite and granodiorite domain, and granite gneiss and leucocratic gneiss are plotted in both of granodiorite and granite domains on lUGS silica-alkali diagram. Geochemical properies of major elements suggest that these rocks are sub-alkali rock series, and were formed from S-type magma which generated in syn-collision tectonic environment. Discrimination diagrams using HFS elements suggest that original rocks of the three orthogneisses were granitoid of calc-alkali rock series, and were formed in syn-collision environment.

  • Pb isotope composition is analyzed from the rock chips of marbles intercalated between gneisses of Muju area and it shows very large variation ($^{206}Pb/^{204}Pb$=23.74~4142, $^{207}Pb/^{204}Pb$=16.32~18.43, $^{208}Pb/^{204}Pb$=36.42~39.75). The data points form well defined positive relationship on $^{206}Pb/^{204}Pb$ vs $^{207}Pb/^{204}Pb$ plot, which corresponds to $1.99{\pm}0.10$($2{\sigma}$) Ga. This age is very similar to the formation ages of the granitic gneisses from Buncheon and Cheondongri (Tanyang), and suggests that the fairly large volume of Sobaeksan Massif suffered regional metamorphism at this time. It is suggested that the most parts of Korean peninsula including Kyeonggi and Sobaeksan Massifs were very close each other and experienced a regional metamorphism together about 2.0 Ga ago from the fact that galenas from whole Korean Peninsula except Kyeongsang Basin and metamorphic rocks from Kyeonggi Massif also reveal a similar slope corresponding 2.0 Ga on Pb-Pb isotope plot.

  • To clarify the geological structure of North Sobaegsan Massif in the Sangunmyeon area, Bonghwagun, Korea, where the Yecheon Shear Zone passes and the NE-SW and E-W trending structural lineaments are developed, the rock-structures of its main constituent rocks(Precambrian Won-nam Formation and Mesozoic Hornblende Granite) were examined. In this area, the geological structure was formed at least by four phases of deformation after the formation of gneissosity or schistosity of the Wonnam Formation: one deformation before D2 ductile shearing related to the for-mation of the Yecheon Shear Zone and two deformations after that. The NE-SW and E-W trending structural lineaments were formed by a giant open or gentle type of F4 fold, and their trends before D4 deformation are interpreted to be parallel to the orientation(ENE-WSW trend) of folded surface in the F4 hinge zone. The structural features of Dl-D3 deformations and their relative occurrence times are as follows. Dl deformation is formative period of the boudin structures and ENE-WSW trending isoclinal folds with sub-horizontal hinge lines and steeply inclined axial surfaces. D2 deformation is that of the mylonite foliation, stretching lineation and Z-shaped asymmetric folds related to top-to-the ENE dextral strike-slip shearing on the distinct foliations of Wonnam Formation(after intrusion of Mesozoic Hornblende Granite). D3 deformation is that of the ENE trending S-shaped asymmetric folds with sub-horizontal hinge lines and axial surfaces related to normal-slip shearing on the distinct foliations. It is expected that the result will be contributed to as valuable data for interpreting the tectonic evolution of the North Sobaegsan Massif and the Northeast Ogcheon Belt whose tectonic lineaments are changed from NE-SW to E-W trends at the Sindong-Bonghwa line.
