Mesoarchaean Tiejiashan granite in the Anshan area is the largest and oldest K-rich granite intrusive in the North-China Craton.It is high in K_2O(4.77~5.75%)and low in Na_2O(3.16~3.52%)and shows obvious negative Eu and Ba anomalies (Eu/Eu*=0.40~0.51,Ba/Ba*=0.15~0.26),with t_(DM)(Nd)ande_(Nd)(t)values being 3.42~3.38Ga and -3.61~-2.51. Two granite samples A9837 and A0433 give magmatic zircon ages of 2992±10Ma and 2983±10Ma,respectively.Combined with the zircon age of 2.96Ga determined by Zhong(1984)and Song et al.(1996),the formation time of the majority of the Tiejiashan granite can be restricted between 2.99 and 2.96Ga.The other granite sample(A9825)gives a magmatic zircon age of 2914±4Ma,which is considered to represent the time of anatexis of the Tiejiashan granite after its emplacement.All three samples contain inherited zircons, of which the oldest one is up to 3.76Ga.The magmatic/inherited zircons from samples A9837 and A9825 give the t_(DM)(Hf)ande_(Hf)(t) of 3.48~3.32Ga/3.89~3.47Ga and -7.85~-2.29/-19.5~-6.2,respectively.It is evident that the Tiejiashan granite was derived from ancient continental crust with high maturity,being consistent with the geochemical characteristics of the granite.The supracrustal rocks associated with the Tiejiashan granite are mainly metasedimentary rocks and show similar geochemical features to the Tiejiashan granite.Detrital zircons from three metasedimentary rock samples(A9819,A0435,A0436)are around~3.0Ga in ages (Yin et al.,2006).The detrital zircons from two of the three samples(A0435,A0436)give the t_(DM)(Hf)ande_(Hf)(t)of 3.67~3.30Ga and -9.93~-2.29,respectively.The detrital zircons are very similar in age and Hf isotope composition to the magmatic zircons from the Tiejiashan granite,indicating that the metasedimentary rocks were deposited later than the Tiejiashan granite and so they are not enclaves in the granite,as previously considered(Wan et al.,2002).
