Thermal history of the Siberian Traps Large Igneous Province revealed by new thermochronology data from intrusions

We present results of apatite fission-track analysis of seven intrusions located within the Permian-Triassic Siberian Traps Large Igneous Province (LIP): (1) alkaline-ultramafic central type plutons of Odikhincha, Yessey and Magan, (2) intrusions of Norilsk-1 and Kontay, (3) Padunsky sill, and (4) Kotuy dike. Additionally, we also present a set of new geochmnological data for some of studied intrusions: (a) LA-ICPMS U-Pb apatite ages of the Odikhincha pluton (266 +/- 29 Ma) and the Padunsky sill (241 +/- 12); (b) Rb-Sr ages from the Odikhincha (258.0 +/- 0.6 Ma), Magan (242.8 +/- 6.8 Ma) and Yessey (243.1 +/- 2.7 Ma) plutons; and (c) Ar-40/Ar-39 mica ages from the Odikhincha (264.3 +/- 3.0 Ma) and Magan (254.7 +/- 3.1 Ma) plutons. Most of these intrusions, probably with the exception of the Odikhincha, were emplaced during the most voluminous phase of the Siberian Traps magmatism ca. 252-251 Ma, but their AFT ages are distributed from 207 +/- 17 to 173 +/- 13 Ma and much younger than Late Permian to Early Triassic isotopic ages from these and other Siberian Traps LIP intrusions. Available AFT, U-Pb, Rb-Sr and Ar-40/Ar-39 data and time-temperature modeling has allowed us to create the first model of the post-Paleozoic tectono-thermal history of the Siberian Traps. After their emplacement ca. 251 Ma the studied rocks underwent a later phase of rapid cooling to below 120-60 degrees C during the time interval similar to 207-173 Ma and have remained near the surface until present. We propose this later cooling event is linked to exhumation associated with coeval Late Triassic-Early Jurassic large-scale uplift of the Siberian platform caused by collisional processes at its periphery. Our new results also indicate that at least a 1-2 km thickness of Siberian Traps lavas have been removed by erosion in the north of the Siberian platform since eruption, implying the total volume of the Permian-Triassic lavas was much greater than that currently preserved today.
