Petrogenesis of Hawaiian postshield lavas: Evidence from Nintoku Seamount, Emperor Seamount Chain

Abstract: [1] We report major and trace element and Sr and Nd isotope data for a 283 m thick sequence of postshield lavas drilled during Ocean Drilling Project Leg 197 from Site 1205, Nintoku Seamount, an approximately 56 m.y. old volcano from the Emperor Seamount Chain. At least 25 subaerially erupted lava flow units were sampled, of which all but one are alkali basalts. Clasts of hawaiite and mugearite are present in a conglomerate overlying the basement sequence. Similar rock types characterize the postshield stage o… Show more

“…(b) Zr/Nb versus La/Yb for the LSC lavas and Hawaiian shield, post‐shield and post‐erosional lavas (note that the LSC lavas display some similarity to the Hawaiian post‐shield lavas). Data for Hawaii are from Huang et al [2005], Shafer et al [2005], Yang et al [2003] and Pietruszka and Garcia [1999].…”

“…Intraplate volcanoes built on young, thin oceanic lithosphere close to spreading centers appear to erupt lavas with relatively depleted compositions. For example, the oldest Emperor seamounts were constructed on thin oceanic lithosphere close to a spreading center, and their comparatively depleted incompatible element compositions have been ascribed to either ‘plume‐ridge interaction’ [ Keller et al , 2000] or a ‘lithospheric lid’ effect [ Frey et al , 2005; Huang et al , 2005; Regelous et al , 2003; Shafer et al , 2005]. Osbourn Guyot was built closest to the fossil Osbourn Trough spreading center, and by analogy with the Emperor seamounts, an effect on the composition of lavas of the oldest Louisville seamounts could be expected.…”

“…In particular, the combination of low 87 Sr/ 86 Sr and high 143 Nd/ 144 Nd with high Rb/Sr and low Sm/Nd is a paradox that has been known for some time [e.g., Chen and Frey , 1983], but that remains largely unresolved. To explain the enrichment in trace elements, assimilation models must invoke a source recently enriched (metasomatized) in incompatible trace elements [e.g., Yang et al , 2003; Shafer et al , 2005] or very small degree melts (0.1%–1%) of a depleted source [e.g., Chen and Frey , 1985]. In contrast, other studies attempt to overcome the paradox by arguing that the depleted isotopic signatures are derived from within the plume itself or from entrained deep mantle material [e.g., Frey et al , 2005; Fekiacova et al , 2007].…”

“…Variation of Zr/Nb with primitive mantle‐normalized Nb (for ease of comparison with Figure ) for SO141 samples, and lavas from different eruptive stages of Hawaiian volcanoes, showing that younger, more alkalic lavas have lower Zr/Nb ratios and higher Nb concentrations. Data for Hawaiian shield tholeiites from Koolau [ Huang and Frey , ] and Kilauea [ Pietruszka and Garcia , ], postshield alkalic lavas from Nintoku Seamount [ Shafer et al ., ], and rejuvenated volcanics from Koolau [ Yang et al ., ] shown for comparison. On the basis of this diagram, we have classified basaltic SO141 samples with Zr/Nb > 9 as shield stage lavas, and samples with Zr/Nb < 5 as rejuvenated lavas.…”
