Deconvolution of high and low-temperature alteration processes along the contact zones of basaltic-dike intrusions in basaltic host rocks of different permeabilities – implications for geothermal exploration
Magmatic intrusions serve as crucial heat sources for geothermal systems, facilitating mass transfer, mineral transformations, and elemental exchange, which result in the formation of contact aureoles. While these processes have been extensively studied in large intrusive complexes in ancient geological formations, understanding of their occurrence in active geothermal systems remains limited. The extreme conditions present in active volcanic systems often obscure the geochemical processes occurring within host rock/intrusion zones. Uncertainties persist regarding whether relatively small dike intrusions (∼0.5 m thick) possess sufficient heat content to induce textural or geochemical changes in the surrounding wall rock, and what implications this may hold for future exploratory drilling projects. The analyses in this study were conducted on two distinct outcrops, each featuring 50-cm thick basaltic intrusions within both high- and low-permeability basaltic host rocks. The low permeability host rock hosts high-temperature mineral phases (>800 °C), such as sanidine + hedenbergite + albite-rich plagioclase in the contact zone, which we interpret to have formed during partial melting. Immobile, incompatible trace elements (such as Zr, Nb and La) retain the signatures of partial melting in both outcrops. We demonstrate that low degree partial melting (F ≈ 3–10 %) results in a compositional shift in the host rock from basalt to dacite and/or trachyandesite. Thermal modelling suggests that these small dikes, along with their partial melts in the contact zone, form over a very short period of time (< 1 day), but can elevate the ambient temperature. This type of events play an important role in the development of active geothermal systems. In theory, these small dikes do not pose a significant risk during geothermal drilling, unless they are too small to be detected during geophysical exploration.
期刊介绍:
Geothermics is an international journal devoted to the research and development of geothermal energy. The International Board of Editors of Geothermics, which comprises specialists in the various aspects of geothermal resources, exploration and development, guarantees the balanced, comprehensive view of scientific and technological developments in this promising energy field.
It promulgates the state of the art and science of geothermal energy, its exploration and exploitation through a regular exchange of information from all parts of the world. The journal publishes articles dealing with the theory, exploration techniques and all aspects of the utilization of geothermal resources. Geothermics serves as the scientific house, or exchange medium, through which the growing community of geothermal specialists can provide and receive information.
