The Tengchong volcano field(TVF),situated at the southeastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau,holds cru-cial information regarding Cenozoic volcanic activities and geotectonic evolution of the SE Tibet.To pro-vide new constraints on petrogenesis and evolution of the Tengchong volcanism,here we conducted copper(Cu)elemental and isotopic analyses on a suite of samples that document the evolution from basalts to andesites in the TVF.The basalts are Cu-depleted(29.7-36.9 ppm)and have higher δ65Cu val-ues(0.19‰-0.40‰,mean=0.31‰±0.05‰;n=11)than those of mid-ocean ridge basalts(MORBs,~0.09‰)and the mantle(~0.06‰)as well as the majority of island arc lavas.Along with the low Cu/Zr ratios,these characteristics are interpreted to reflect the fractionation of isotopically light sulfides in the S-saturated systems during magma ascent,rather than source heterogeneity induced by recycled materials and redox reactions.Compared with the basalts,the andesites have slightly lower Cu contents(14.4-29.4 ppm)and lighter Cu isotopic compositions(mean=-0.14‰±0.06‰;n=13).These differ-ences cannot be attributed to progressive sulfide fractionation of basaltic magmas but require the assim-ilation of lower crustal materials with low δ65Cu values during evolution of the andesitic magmas.Our results collectively suggest that Cu isotopes can provide valuable insights into magma origin and evolution.
