Systematical analyses of data from GEOROC and PetDB database show that large amount of Cenozoic andesites occurred in the various oceanic environments such as mid-oceanic ridge,plume-related island and oceanic arc.In this study,we employed the geochemical data of 351 mid-ocean ridge andesites(MORA),2 539 plume-related andesites(PRA)and 3 488 oceanic arc andesites(OAA)from the database to discuss the relationship between andesite tectonic settings and their geochemical features,thereby making an attempt to construct tectonic discrimination diagrams.Based on the data-driven pattern,all available elements were employed to derive logratios for the possible coordinates,and the overlap-rate calculation was adopted to evaluate the discrimination effect of more than 330 000 prospec-tive diagrams.Finally,four tectonic discrimination diagrams have been successfully established to identi-fy MORA,PRA and OAA,which can be utilized to identify the original settings of andesite with an age range from Cenozoic to Archean a certain extent.Of these diagrams,PRA is mainly distinguished by high LREE/HREE ratio due to enriched mantle source.Whereas,OAA is mainly characterized by high LILE/HFSE ratio,which reveals that fluids derived from subducted slab play an important role in form-ing oceanic arc andesites.Consequently,the petrogenesis of andesites is closely related to their tectonic settings.However,it should be noted that those andesites formed in both continental and oceanic environ-ments cannot be effectively distinguished using these diagrams.We strongly recommend integrating the discrimination diagrams result with other geological information to reach a comprehensive interpreta-tion of evolution history with those ancient andesites.This paper presents a case study which suggests that data-driven method is a powerful tool for solving geological problems in this'big data'era.
