Ophiolites in the Variscan suture of NW Iberia II: Geochemistry and classification

Abstract

[EN] The lithological and geochemical features of most of the NW Iberia ophiolites show they are not common MOR types. They instead formed in SSZ setting or during the opening of pull-apart type ephemeral basins. Perhaps the only exception is the Bazar Ophiolite, which has a more representative oceanic composition that seems to reflect a Cambrian accretion zone of peri-Gondwanan oceanic material below a magmatic arc system. Together with the Vila de Cruces Ophiolite, also generated during Cambrian times in relation to the opening of a back-arc basin, both reflect somewhat the earliest stages of the opening of the Rheic Ocean, the largest Paleozoic ocean generated in the periGondwanan setting. The Devonian ophiolites (Careón, Purrido and Moeche ophiolites) represent the remnants of an oceanic lithosphere generated in an ephemeral basin, probably a pull-apart type, developed during dextral convergence. This basin probably opened at c. 400-390 Ma, apparently after a first interaction between the continental margins of Gondwana and Laurussia. The two ophiolitic belts in Galicia preserve evidence for the complex tectonothermal events that occurred during the assembly of Pangea. This collision was not simple, but occurred in at least two distinct events separated by the opening of pull-apart basins.

[ES] Las características litológicas y geoquímicas de las ofiolitas del NW de Iberia indican que no representan tipos MOR comunes. Por el contrario, se formaron en contextos de tipo SSZ o durante la apertura de cuencas efímeras de tipo pull-apart. Quizás la única excepción es la Ofiolita de Bazar, que tiene una composición oceánica más típica y su evolución parece reflejar la acreción Cámbrica de litosfera oceánica peri-Gondwánica bajo un arco magmático. Junto con la ofiolita de Vila de Cruces, también generada durante el Cámbrico en relación con la apertura de una cuenca de back-arc, ambas reflejan de alguna manera los estadios iniciales de la apertura del Océano Rheico. Las ofiolitas del Devónico (ofiolitas de Careón, Purrido y Moeche) representan los restos de litosfera oceánica generada en una cuenca efímera, probablemente de tipo pull-apart, desarrollada durante convergencia dextra. Esta cuenca se formó a c. 490-390 Ma, después de un primer episodio de interacción entre los márgenes continentales de Gondwana y Laurussia. Los dos cinturones de ofiolitas de Galicia preservan evidencias de los eventos tectonotermales iniciales del ensamblado de Pangea. La colisión no fue simple y tuvo lugar al menos durante dos episodios diferenciados, separados por la apertura de cuencas de pull-apart.
