CHANGING MODELS OF ARC MAGMATISM
1960-70’s Arc magmas
largely derived from
subducted oceanic crust
and sediment
1980-90’s Arc magmas
largely derived from
mantle wedge
1990’s- 2000’s both
contribute, but wedge is
dominant source

PETROGENESIS OF ISLAND ARC MAGMAS
THERMAL MODEL FOR SUBDUCTION
Variables affecting isotherms
in subduction zones:
• Rate of subduction
• Age of the subduction
zone
• Age of the subducting
slab
• Flow in the mantle wedge
• Frictional/shear heating
along the Wadati-Benioff
zone
Other factors:
 dip of the slab
 endothermic
metamorphic reactions
 metamorphic fluid flow
Isotherms will be higher when:
• convergence is slower
• slab is younger (nearer to ridge)
• arc is younger
Winter (2010) Figure 16-15. Cross section of a subduction zone showing isotherms (red-after
Furukawa, 1993, J. Geophys. Res., 98, 8309-8319) and mantle flow lines (yellow- after Tatsumi and
Eggins, 1995, Subduction Zone Magmatism. Blackwell. Oxford).
POTENTIAL SOURCES OF ARC MAGMAS
Only Viable Sources
1. Crustal portion of the
subducted slab
Altered
oceanic crust
(hydrated by circulating
seawater, and metamorphosed
in large part to greenschist
facies)
Subducted
oceanic and
forearc sediments
Seawater
trapped in pore
spaces
2. Mantle wedge between slab
and arc crust
3. Arc crust
4.Lithospheric mantle of
subducting plate
5. Asthenosphere beneath slab

CONTINENTAL ARCS VS ISLAND ARCS
AFFECTS OF THICK DIFFERENTIATED
CONTINENTAL CRUST




Thick sialic crust contrasts
greatly with mantle-derived
partial melts may produce more
pronounced effects of
contamination
Low density of crust may retard
ascent causing stagnation of
magmas and more potential for
differentiation
Low melting point of crust allows
for partial melting and crustallyderived melts
Subcontinental lithosphere may
be more compositionally diverse
that suboceanic lithosphere,
especially if crust is old
TYPES OF CONTINENTAL ARCS

more common where
Continental crust is older

Granite
The Problem: Even very efficient fractional
crystallization will create only 5-10% felsic magma
A FEW BROAD GENERALIZATIONS ABOUT GRANITES
1) Most granitoids of significant volume occur in
areas where the continental crust has been
thickened by orogeny, either continental arc
subduction or collision of sialic masses. Many
granites, however, may post-date the
thickening event by tens of millions of years.
2) Because the crust is solid in its normal state,
some thermal disturbance is required to form
granitoids
3) Most workers are of the opinion that the
majority of granitoids are derived by crustal
anatexis, but that the mantle may also be
involved. The mantle contribution may range
from that of a source of heat for crustal
anatexis, or it may be the source of material
as well
