The metamorphosed volcanic-sedimentary sequences of the Wudang Group belong to an important rock unit of the basement in the South Qinling block.Formation ages and geochemical features of the Wudang Group can provide essential information for understanding of the tectonic evolution of the Qinling orogenic belt.In this study,we report whole-rock Sm-Nd and zircon Lu-Hf isotopic composition of sedimentary rocks in the upper part and volcanic rocks in the lower part of the Wudang Group,and provide discussion on petrogenesis of the volcanic rocks and source characteristics of the sedimentary rocks.Zircon grains from the Wudang sedimentary rocks give initiale_(Hf) values ranging from-30 to+10,corresponding to model age values(t_(DM2)) between about 1.0Ga and 3.2Ga,initiale_(Nd) values of whole-rocks vary from-4.0 to-6.0.The sedimentary sources originated from basement rocks of a Yangtze-affinity and volcanic rocks of the lower part of the Wudang Group.Initiale_(Hf) values of zircon grains from the volcanic rocks vary from-35 to+15,corresponding to t_(DM2) values of about 0.8Ga to 3.5Ga,but clustering around 1.5~1.8Ga and 2.2~2.4Ga. Initiale_(Nd) values of two quartz-keratophyre samples of volcanic rock are-9.2 and-10.7,different from the reported values for the Wudang basaltic-andesitic rocks exposed in Hubei Province,where most of the volcanic rocks have positivee_(Nd) values.Therefore, different origins can be proposed for different volcanic rock types of the Wudang Group.Those volcanic rocks characterized by low initiale_(Nd) ande_(Hf) values originated mainly from re-melting crustal material,while others have a broad range of initiale_(Hf) values(-35 to+15) or positive initiale_(Nd) values,which indicate significant contribution of mantle material or juvenile crustal rocks together with old crustal rocks to the magma(s) of the Wudang volcanic rocks.Evidence of Nd-Hf isotopic compositions and detrital zircon age patterns of the Wudang Group suggests that the South Qinling terrane of Yangtze-affinity probably underwent multi-stage history of crustal accretion and reworking during the Proterozoic time.
