Evolution of melts and fluids as a reflection of the crust and mantle formation by the example of the Middle Denieper mega-block of the Ukrainian Shield. Archean
© O.V. Usenko, 2016
The scheme of geodynamic process during the production of granite-greenstone area (GGA) of the Midd1e Dnieper mega-block
(MDMB) of the Ukrainian Shield has been presented. It reflects the change of the lithosphere thickness during activation lasted
from 3.2 to 2.8 Ga ago. Composition of fluids accompanied melts differentiation within the mantle and crust has also been described.
Special features of chemical and mineral composition of the greenstone rocks structures of the Middle Dnieper mega-block are wide
development of magnesia silicates and high content of iron. Peculiarities of composition of superposed alterations reflect the
activity of oxidized fluids carbonate, aqueous and silicate ones. These special features are inherent to all GSS of the Archean
without any exc1usion and practically are never repeated later. It is possib1e to explain this fact by high oxidation potential at the
depths of more than 100 km and water and chloride ions activity at higher levels. Granitoids and ferruginous rocks are formed during
integrated geodynamic process with volcanogenic rocks of the greenstone rocks structures.
Key words: Archean, granite-greenstone areas, greenstone structures, geodynamic process, granitization, fluid, comatyite, tonalite, the Ukrainian Shield.
