Quaternary intraplate magmatism formed several volcanic islands and seamounts,including Dokdo(DD),Ulleungdo(UD),Simheungtack(ST),Anyongbok,and Isabu in the southwest of the East Sea back-arc basin.In this study,we present whole-rock geochemical,zircon U-Pb age,and in situ O-Hf isotope data for the submerged volcanic rocks from DD,UD,and ST to provide new insights into the eruption timing of these volcanoes and constrain the magma evolution processes.All samples used in this study were tra-chytes and exhibited ferroan,alkalic,and metaluminous to weakly peraluminous characteristics.They showed light rare earth element(REE)-enriched patterns with(La/Yb)N ratios of 25.3-31.7 and mostly negative Eu anomalies in a chondrite-normalized REE plot.In addition,they were enriched in large-ion lithophile elements and high field strength elements;they exhibited positive Pb anomalies and strongly negative Ba,Sr,P,and Ti anomalies.The zircons yielded a weighted-mean 206Pb/238U age of 2.61,0.348-0.704,and 2.76-2.94 Ma for the DD,UD,and ST trachytes,respectively.All zircons exhibited lower δ18O values than normal depleted mantle values,regardless of the crystallization age and spatial distribution of volcanoes.The δ18O values showed no correlation with U contents or Th/U ratios,indicating that the low δ18O signatures were of primary magmatic origin.The Hf isotopic compositions of the zircons were relatively heterogeneous but predominately characterized by positive εHf values.Binary O-Hf mixing modeling revealed that low-δ18O rocks with positive εHf values from the UD and ST volcanoes were derived from a hybrid source of recycled juvenile crustal materials with low-δ18O and positive εHf signa-tures and an enriched mantle source with normalδ18O and negative εHf values.The juvenile oceanic crust in the source was likely metasomatized by seawater at high temperatures prior to melting.In contrast,the felsic magma that formed the DD volcanoes may have assimilated with regional basement rocks(Triassic-Jurassic granitoids),resulting in increased δ18O values and decreased εHf values relative to those of the UD and ST volcanoes.Our study highlights the significant contribution of recycled oceanic crust materials to the generation of the Quaternary magmas.
