We integrate textural and in situ compositional information from plagioclase and clinopyroxene (Cpx) phenocrysts together with groundmass compositions in early Cretaceous andesite dykes within the Sulu belt of China to propose a new petrogenetic model for andesite. Plagioclase phenocrysts are mostly andesine; they are depleted in high field strength elements (HFSE). However, Cpx phenocrysts are either reversely zoned (type I) or homogeneous (type II), with the zoned Cpx divided into subtypes IA and IB. All Cpx has high Mg#, low Na2O and generally low Al2O3, with depletions in HFSE and variably high 87Sr/86Sr ratios, suggesting crystallization above the Moho from magmas derived from enriched lithospheric mantle. The cores of type IA/IB and type II Cpx have normal major‐ and trace‐element compositional variations and similar 87Sr/86Sr ratios to each other and to plagioclase, consistent with fractional crystallization from a common magma (magma 1). The rims of type IA and IB Cpx also have normal major‐ and trace‐element compositional variations, but these are not as evolved as the cores, and the rims have lower 87Sr/86Sr ratios, demonstrating crystallization from an isotopically distinct magma (magma 2). Based on modeled major and rare earth element compositions of magmas inferred to have been in equilibrium with different Cpx (±plagioclase) domains, the measured groundmass compositions can be reproduced by variable mixing between the two magmas. Our study demonstrates for the first time that andesite magma can be made through fractionation and shallow hybridization of magmas derived from variably enriched lithospheric mantle. Plain Language Summary: Andesite is the characteristic volcanic rock that is formed where Earth's tectonic plates are thrust one under another, as occurs along the Andes, the Cordillera of Central and North America, and the western margin of the Pacific Ocean, but how the magmas form remains controversial. In the mantle model, an enriched source is thought to form by reaction between mantle peridotite and metamorphic fluids derived from seafloor sediments and/or altered oceanic lithosphere during under‐thrusting of an ocean plate beneath a continental margin. By contrast, the shallow model proposes that andesite magmas are formed by differentiation of basaltic magmas or mixing of magmas from mantle and crustal sources in the lithosphere of an overriding continental plate. In either case, the composition of the magma may evolve due to crystal fractionation or be modified by crustal assimilation. Here, we use petrographic observations and in situ major‐ and trace‐element, and Sr isotope compositions of plagioclase and clinopyroxene phenocrysts and groundmass in early Cretaceous andesite dykes from the Sulu belt of China, to show for the first time that andesite can be made through fractionation and shallow hybridization of two different magmas derived from variably enriched lithospheric mantle of the underlying continental plate. Key Points: Using compositions of plagioclase/clinopyroxene phenocrysts and the groundmass in andesite we develop a new model of andesite petrogenesisThis model requires polybaric crystallization and hybridization between 2 enriched lithospheric mantle‐derived magmas at crustal depthWe demonstrate that andesite of similar composition to continental crust can be made through mixing magmas derived from the enriched subcontinental lithospheric mantle [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
