  • Crustal material subducted to mantle depths inevitably interacted with the mantle wedge at the slab-mantle interface. This may generate a variety of ultramafic metasomatites that served as the mantle source of mafic igneous rocks in collisional orogens. Therefore, mafic igneous rocks in collisional orogens are the important target to study the recycling of subdcuted crustal materials and its associated crust-mantle interaction. In order to decipher the mechanism and processes of the recycling of subducted continental crustal materials, a combined study of element and isotope geochemistry was performed for post-collisional andesitic volcanics from the Dabie orogen, China. SIMS zircon U-Pb ages for these volcanic rocks are 124±3 to 130±2 Ma, indicating that they formed at Early Cretaceous. In addition, the relict zircons have Middle Neoproterozoic and Triassic U-Pb ages, respectively, corresponding to the ages of protolith formation and ultrahigh-pressure metamorphism (UHP) for UHP metaigenous rocks in the Dabie-Sulu orogenic belt. They have island-arc basalts (IAB)-like trace-element patterns, enriched Sr-Nd-Hf isotope compositions, and variable zircon δ18O values mostly different from the normal mantle. These element and isotope features indicate that the post-collisional andesitic volcanics are the products of partial melting of metasomatically enriched orogenic lithospheric mantle. During the Triassic subduction of the South China block (SCB) beneath the North China block (NCB), the overlying NCB lithospheric mantle wedge peridotite was metasomatized by felsic melts originated from the subdcuted SCB continental crust, the melt-peridotite reaction in the continental subduction channel generated fertile and enriched metasomatites of mafic composition. Partial melting of such metasomatites in the Early Cretaceous gave rise to these andesitic volcanics. Therefore, the mantle sources for post-collisional mafic igneous rocks in collisional orogens would be generated by the slab-mantle interaction in continental subduction channel, and the lithochemical and geochemical composition of these mafic rocks is dictated by the proportion of felsic melts incorporating into the mantle wedge.
