摘要

Due to the wide range of elements that make up the apatite lattice, it is increasingly used as a geological indicator. Since the composition of apatite is characterized by a wide range of isomorphic substitutions, it carries information about the composition and nature of the original rocks, as well as about the history of the development of these rocks. Since apatite composition is characterized by a wide range of isomorphic substitutions, it carries information about the composition and nature of the original rocks, as well as the history of development of these rocks. The trace element composition of accessory apatite from deep metamorphosed gneisses of the Nyarta Complex, muscovite-chlorite-albite-quartz schists of the Mankhobey Formation, calcareous-mica schists of the Shchokurya Formation, and low-temperature metamorphites represented by chlorite-muscovite-albite-quartz schists of the Puyva Formation of the subpolar urals was studied. The purpose of this work was to establish the possibility of using the trace element composition of apatite for the separation and correlation of Precambrian metamorphic rocks. The morphological features of apatite, the presence, mineral composition and amount of solid and gas–liquid inclusions, as well as the trace element composition of apatite itself (variations in the content and distribution of individual rare-earth elements, presence or absence of Eu and Сe anomalies) are shown. The results of studies showed that the content of REE, Y, and Sr apatites from high-temperature metamorphic rocks (Nyarta Complex, Mankhobeya, and Shchokurya Formations) differs from the content of these elements in apatites from low-temperature metamorphic rocks of the Puyva Formation. This is confirmed by the previously obtained data on the belonging of metamorphic rocks of the Nyarta Complex of the Mankhobey and Shchokurya Formations to the same structural stage.
