Pegmatite is Macrocrystalline rock and composition of rock
forming minerals is similar to granite. Tourmaline is boron-rich
mineral which is much content in pegmatite. General chemical
formula is XY3Z6Si6B3O27(OH,O,F)4. Tourmaline have useful
information about the environment and conditions of deposition.

And significance of petrogenetic indicator recently has gained
more attention. Besides, variability in its crystal-chemistry
reflects physical and chemical changes during
crystallization.(Henry and Guidotti et al., 1985; Jolliff et al., 1986).
The study area is located in Lichen hills and Outback Nunatak,
North Victoria land, Antarctica. Lichenhills rocks are composed of
granitoids, leucogranites and dolerites. Outback nunatak rocks are
composed of granitic pegmatite and Precambrian schist. So,
Igneous rocks of Outback Nunatak and igneous rock of Lichenhills
are from same Granite habour Intrusive, but origin is little bit
different. Lichen hills' rocks are more close to S-type rather than
Outback nunatak’s. In Outback nunatak’s pegamatie, tourmaline
is well discovered. Due to chemical difference, zoning is well
developed on 001 side of macrocrystalline tourmaline. These
tourmalines belong to schorl-elbaite solid solution and which
indicate that Li, Mg contents is poor, Al, Fe contents is abundant
iii
when tourmaline were formed. Ferrischorl (ferric
oxide)substitution (Fe3+Al-1) from core to rim occur. This
means oxidation state of hydrothermal fluid increase at late period
making rim of tourmaline. This can be done by mixture of
hydrothermal fluid or supergene water which is more oxidizing
fluid or boiling of hydrothermal fluid,

1. Introduction
Pegmatite is Macrocrystalline rock and composition of rock forming
minerals is similar to granite. Particle size of granitic pegmatite is
from 2.5cm to 30cm. These granitic pegmatites have various origins
and can show a similarly varied range of rare-element enrichment(e.
g Li, Cs, Ta, Nb, Rb, Y, REE, Sc, U, Sn, F, b, Be) (T. Scott Ercit et al,,
2005).
Tourmaline is boron-rich mineral which is much content in pegmatite.
General chemical formula is XY3Z6Si6B3O27(OH,O,F)4. These
tourmaline composed of major elements such as Si, Mg, Ca, Fe, Al, Mn
and minor elements such as Li, F, B. Tourmaline have useful
information about the environment and conditions of deposition. And
significance of petrogenetic indicator recently has gained more
attention. Besides, variability in its crystal-chemistry reflects
physical and chemical changes during crystallization (Henry and
Guidotti et al., 1985; Jolliff et al., 1986).
The study area is located in Lichen hills and Outback Nunatak, North
Victoria land, Antarctica. According to study of Zeller and Dreschhoff
(1990), it is reported that radioactivity value in Lichen hills in Victoria
land is very high. For these reason, rock samples of these area are
2
collected at first. But because its weather and ground condition is s
severe, samples are obtained only few from outcrop. The number of
samples is 15 in Lichen hills, 7 in Outback Nunatak. Even though the
number of samples is small, it is worthy to study because the samples
are from Antarctic which isn’t studied much. Granitic pegmatites from
these two area are related Granite Habour Intrusive. But among this
rock samples, tourmalines from Outback Nunatak are observed very
easily contrary to samples from Lichenhills.
So, purpose of this study is ; (1) to know basic information of these
two region’s lithofacies by Microscope observation and major and
minor element analysis. (2) to find out tectonic setting when these
two regions were formed (3) to find out difference of these two
region's environment when Granite habour Intrusive intrude. If
exploration will be done this region, purpose of this study is to provide
basic guideline and base data in these regions. For mineralogical study,
observation using microscope and SEM-EDS is conducted. For
geochemical analysis, major element, minor element, REE contents of
whole rock are analyzed by XRF, ICP-MS. For tourmaline analysis,
EPAM analysis is conducted for each grain from core to rim.

2. Geological Setting
North Victoria land in Antarctica is located in end of
TAM(Transantarctic Mountains), side of the Pacific Ocean )(Woo et
al.,2013)(Fig.1). This area has very good condition to study geology
because rocks are exposed very widely in Antarctica. Stratigraphic
sequence of TAM(Transantarctic Mountain) and Vitoria land is
represented that ; metasedimentary rocks and metamorphic rocks of
Precambrian-early Cambrian, shallow and deep-marine siliciclastics
and shallow-marine carbonates, and volcanics of Cambrian-
Ordovician, dolerite, basalts, volcaniclastics and fluvial sandstone of
Devonian-Cenozoic, volcanics and glacial deposits of
Jurassic.(Table.1) Progress of Tectonic setting of
TAM(Transantarctic Mountain) and Victoria island is divided into 3
stages. First, Ross orogeny took place from neo-proterozoic to
early-paleozoic. Terrain of North Victoria land consist of 3
accretionary terrain; Wilson Terrain, Bowers Terrane, Roberton Bay
Terrane. (Capponi et al., 1999a) (Fig.2). Wilson Terrain consist of
metamorphic rocks undergone medium-high metamorphism of
neoproterozoic-early-paleozoic and Granite Harbour Intrusives
which are calc-alkali plutons intruded from Cambrian to Ordovician
4
(Stump el al., 1995). Second stage after Ross orogeny is silent
tectonic period which is from late-Paleozoic to Jurassic. In this
stage, Ross orogenic zone became plain bed rock after it was eroded
in a wide range. On basement rock, Beacon Supergroup consisting of
silicate clastic sediment is piled up. Beacon Supergroup consist of
Taylor Group in Devonian, Victoria Group from late Carboniferous to
early Jurassic, Ferrar Group in mid Jurassic(Fig.3). In North
Victoria land, there is no Taylor Group. In the lowest part of Victoria
Group in North Victoria land, there is diamictite which is glacier
sediment in late Carboniferous. In upper side, there is Takrouna
formation consisting of fluvial deposit in Permian. It mainly consist
of sandstone, coal siltstone, small amount of mudstone. The top part
of Victoria Group is section peak formation in Triassic period, which
consist of medium-coarse grained quartz sandstone(Collinson et al.,
1986). Ferrar Group in North Victoria land consist of pyroclastic
material, kirkpatrick basalt from underneath. It considered to
product of early volcanic activity related with separation of
Gondwanaland(Woo et al., 2013). 7 Samples are selected in Outback
Nunatak, 15 samples are selected in Lichenhills in Wilson tarrane.
Lithofacies of Outback Nunatak's outcrop are composed of
5
GHI(Granit harbor intrusives from ordovician, wsr(rennick schist)
from precambrian mainly, gbs(beacon supergroup:light coloured ,
quartztic to arkosic sandstones, minor quartz conglomerates),
gfd(ferrar supergroup:ferrar dolerite) little from upper paleozoic to
mesozoic. Lithofacies of Lichenhills' outcrop are GHI(Granite
harbour intrusives) from ordovician, gfd(ferrar supergroup : ferrar
dolerite) and gbs(beacon supergroup:light coloured , quartztic to
arkosic sandstones, minor quartz conglomerates) from upper
paleozoic to mesozoic along the sub- beacon erosion surface (Fig.4).
To sum up, in Outback Nunatak there are metamorphic complex in
Wilson Group and Granite Harbour Igneous complex, in Lichen hills,
there are and Granite Harbour Igneous complex and dolerite, basalts,
volcanicclastics in Beacon Supergroup, Ferrar Supergroup mainly.

3. Method
Total 22 sample of outcrop rock were collected. 7 samples are
collected in Outback Nunatak, 15 samples are collected in
Lichenhills of Wilson tarrane. For petrography, macroscopy and
microscopy are conducted. Thin-sections are made for
microscope observation. To distinguish which mineral is contained
in sample, microscope observation is conducted. If minerals cannot
be distinguished, SEM-EDS is used for that. SEM-EDS can offer
approximate chemical composition of point of thin sections. By
macroscopy and microscopy, it is found that collected samples are
correspond to rock facies investigated geology setting. For major
and minor element analyses, XRF(x-ray Fluorescence
Spectrometer) and ICP-MS was performed by National Center for
Inter-University Research Facilities (NCIRF) at Seoul National
University (SNU), Seoul. Rocks are smashed to 200 mash powder
for obtaining bulk composition. Shimadzu XRF-1700 X-ray
fluorescence (XRF) spectrometer was used to perform major
elements analysis. SiO2, Al2O3, TiO2, Fe2O3, K2O, Na2O, CaO, MgO,
MnO, and P2O5 concentrated of each sample were obtained. All
elements’ standard is rock-based standard. Trace and rare earth
7
element concentrations of samples will be analyzed by Elan 6100
Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometer (ICP-MS). By
ICP-MS, REE like lanthanoids(La~Lu) and HFHE(High Field
Strength Element)(Ta, Nb, Hf, Zr, U, Th), LILE(Large Ion
Lithophile Elements)(Yb, Ce, Sr, Ba, Rb) are analyzed. From XRF
data, it can be done to classify rock facies. Also relation between
each major element versus SiO2 in each rock are obtained. From
ICP-MS data, it can be obtained about differentiation trend from
Rb-Sr-Ba and relation of each element versus SiO2 and trend of
REE pattern using Cl Chondrite(MaDonough et al., 1995). Among
these rocks, tourmalines in Outback Nunatak rocks are discovered
more than granite of Lichenhills rocks. In this tourmaline, chemical
zoning is discovered well. Because of chemical composition,
chemical zoning exist. To examine this, SEM-BSE(back scattered
image) image is used. To know chemical difference from core to
rim, electrone probe X-ray microanalyzer analysis (EPMA) is
conducted. Electrone probe X-ray microanalyzer analysis(EPMA)
is performed by SHIMADZU 1610 in KBSI(Korea Basic Science
Institute). Condition of analysis is Acc.V : 15kV, B.C(Beam
Current) : 20nA , B.S(Beam Size) : 1㎛. This was used to perform
8
major elements analysis; SiO2, Al2O3, TiO2, Fe2O3 , K2O, Na2O, CaO,
MgO, MnO, and ZnO of each point. Among samples of Outback
Nunatak, I selected 4 samples which are granite pegmatite having
tourmaline and conducted analysis of 3, 3, 2, 6 tourmaline grains in
each samples. From this analysis, tourmalines are classified and
can be found chemical exchange using exchange vector. By
chemical difference from core to rim, environmental condition of
petrogenesis is interpreted.

4. Result and Discussion
4.1 Macroscopy & Microscope observation
Samples from Lichenhills are 15. In case of LH1, LH7, LH8 and
LH15, it looks granitoids, have pink color. Grain size is coarse
grain, 2~5mm. Alkali feldspar and biotite are found very well by
naked eyes (Fig.5). Little alkali feldspar or no quartz were
observed in microscopic analysis (Fig.6). LH1 sample is composed
of mainly orthoclase and biotite, few quartz. Also muscovite is
discovered little. So, this sample can be called two mica granite.
Grain size is 200~800 μm. LH7 sample is composed of quartz,
orthoclase and biotite. Grain size is 400~600 μm. LH15 sample is
composed of mainly quartz and orthoclase and little muscovite.
Grain size is 400~800 μm.
In case of LH2, LH3, LH4 LH5, LH6 and LH14, it looks like
leucogranite which have light color. It can be found that it have little
mafic mineral and composed of mainly coarse quartz, orthoclase.
10
Some samples have very coarse grain of garnet having dark
color(Fig.7). LH2, LH3 samples are composed of mainly quartz,
orthoclase, muscovite and garnet. Garnet is coarse grain from
600~1200 μm. LH4 , LH5 samples are composed of quartz,
orthoclase, plagioclase, muscovite, garnet. Garnet have smaller size
(100~300 μm) rather than LH2, LH3. LH6 sample is composed of
mainly orthoclase, muscovite, coarse grain of quartz and little biotite.
It can be called two mica granite. LH14 is composed of mainly quartz,
orthoclase, little muscovite (Fig.8).
Last group of Lichenhills is rocks having dark color ; LH9, LH10,
LH11, LH12 (Fig.9). In case of LH9, LH10, grain size is fine
relatively. But LH11, LH12 samples have coarse grain. And, quartz
vein is discovered quartz vein in LH10 sample. When these 4
samples are observed by microscope, pyroxene, quartz and biotite
are mainly composed (Fig.10). These samples have directional
nature of biotite which means that these have light metamorphism.
11
Grain size is 100~200 μm In the case of LH11, it is composed
mainly of quartz, pyroxene, orthoclase, biotite and muscovite. Grain
size is 200~800 μm.
In the case of Outback Nunatak samples, in ON1, ON3, ON5, ON7,
granitic pegmatite is discovered(Fig.11). Grain size is
macrocrystalline. In ON1,ON7 sample, there is granite intruded by
granitic pegmatite. Macrocrystalline quartz, tourmaline, muscovite,
alkali feldspar are observed by naked eyes well. . When these 4
samples are observed by microscope, quartz, alkali feldspar,
tourmaline are mainly composed and little muscovite are discovered
(Fig .12).
ON2, ON4 is dark colored metamorphic rock. It is difficult to
distinguish minerals by naked eyes. Cleavage and foliation is well
developed in rock(Fig.13). When these 4 samples are observed by
microscope, this rocks are mainly composed of quartz, muscovite,
biotite and directional nature is discovered (Fig.14). Compared with
12
geological setting of Outback Nunatak, these rocks are considered
to Precambrian schist.
4.2 Chemical composition
4.2.1 Major Element analysis
For geochemistry of rocks, collected rocks are divided to 4 groups
by sampling area and rock type. Because pegmatites among samples
have many macrocrystalline grains, rocks are smashed and grinded
as big as possible for average chemical composition. With XRF data,
norm analysis is conducted(table 1). Because it is impossible to
calculate content on account of volatile composition, tourmaline and
muscovite isn't calculated, so quartz is calculated little bit high. It is
found that Outback Nunatak granitoids are more felsic than Lichen
hills's granitoids . From collected CIWP norm mineral assemblage,
13
rocks are classified using Strekeisen classification(1979)(Fig.15).
Lichenhills igneous rocks are plotted mainly in monzo granite and
Outback Nunatak igneous rocks are plotted mainly in granodiorite.
But Outback Nunatak looks leucogranite by naked eyes and
micoroscope. This difference is from CIPW norm error. This data
means Lichenhills rocks have more alkali elements than Outback
Nunatak's. Monzo granite calls biotite granite which is identified
Lichenhills's have more biotite in thin sections. According to Or-
An-Ab triangular diagram , Lichen hills igneous rocks are plotted
between granite and quartz monzonite, and Outback Nunatak
igneous rocks are plotted mainly in between granite and trondhjemite.
(Fig.16). Although there is little quartz and albite when these are
observed by microscope, in this diagram these are calculated
somewhat. Because these mineral assemblage are calculated with
chemical data, there may be error compared to actual mineral
assemblage. But it is certain that igneous rocks of Outback nunatak
14
have more quartz and plagioclse than igneous rocks of Lichenhills.
Outback Nunatak's point is sided to albite than Lichen hills's point
meaning they have more content of sodium.
In study of White & Chappel(1992), if Na2O contents are under
3.2 %, Al2O3/Na2O+K2O+CaO is over 1.5, rocks are belonged to S-
type. Igneous rocks of Lichenhills have fewer contents of Na2O and
more contents of Al2O3/Na2O+K2O+CaO than Outback Nunatak's. So,
igneous rocks of Lichenhills are more close to S-type(Fig.17).
Also, in ACF diagram(Hine et al., 1987; Fig.18), Outback Nunatak's
points are plotted around A point rather than Lichenhills's so it is
uncertain that rocks are whether S-type or I type. In AF'K diagram
(Fig.19), rocks are belonged to between pelitic and granites. If rocks
are S type, points are sided into pelitic. Lichen hills'rocks are plotted
almost in pelitic area, but Outback's aren't plotted in pelitic area. So,
Igneous rocks of Outback Nunatak and igneous rock of Lichenhills
are from same Granite habour Intrusive , but origin is little bit
15
different.
4.2.1 Whole rock analysis of trace element & rare earth element
analyses
Trace and rare earth element concentrations of samples will be
analyzed by Elan 6100 Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass
Spectrometer (ICP-MS). The result are shown in table 2.
Rb-Sr-Ba diagram (Biste, 1974) show trend of differentiation.
Rocks of Lichen hills differentiation is normal and shows dispersion
(Fig.20). This means Lichen hills rocks are affected from remelting
and partial melting. And igneous rocks of Outback Nunatak have
strongly differentiated.
Nb-Y tectonic setting diagram is shown. (Pearce et al., 1984;
Fig.21)All samples are plotted in volcanic-arc grantes(VAG) plus
16
syn-collisional granites (sys COLG) area. In Ta-Yb tectonic setting
diagram(Fig.22), almost point are plotted in syn-COLG and others
are plotted in VAG. Rb-Y+Nb, Rb-Y+Ta are shown (Fig.23).
These diagram indicate that rocks are originated from Syn-COLG.
Rare earth elements are classified to 2 groups: Lichen hills granitic
pegmatite, Outback nunatak pegmatite. REE contents is normalized
with Cl Chondrite(Nakamura, 1974). (Fig.24).
Overall, Lichen hills rocks have more REE than Outback Nunakta
rocks. Lichen hills rocks LREE contents have a number of times to
hundreds of times than HREE contents. On the contrary, Outback
nunakta's HREE are little bit higher than LREE. Generally, this is
fixed by partition coefficient between melt and mineral. When
mineral crystallize from melt, LREE goes rich in melt. In the Lichen
hills pattern(Fig.24), LREE are much more enriched than HREE,
displays positive Eu anomalies. On the other contrary, Outback
nunatak samples don’t display tendency like this. Negative Eu
17
anomalies in Lichen hills rocks means plagioclase fractional
crystallization happens much.
Primitive mantle Normalized spider diagram are shown.(Fig.25).
Elements are arranged in the order incompatibility. In these two
diagram, incompatible elements are more enriched than compatible
element. But Outback Nunatka's have little compatible elements.
Lichen hill's shows Ba, Sr anomaly which is related Eu anomaly. It
means plagioclase fractional crystallization happens much. Also it
shows Nb anomaly. It is related with mixture of crust material.
Outback nunatak's shows Zr anomaly.
4.3 Morphology of the examined tourmaline
Igneous rocks of Outback Nunatak and igneous rock or Lichenhills
are from Granite Habour Intrusive. But there is difference between
these two region' rock. Outback Nunatak's rocks are more pegmatic
18
and have tourmaline. Tourmaline is discovered in granitic pegmatite
well. Because it is partial samples, it is difficult to know overall
country rock's situation. On naked eyes, when grain size is big,
crystalline shape is well discovered and show acicular structure.
Tourmaline grain size in ON3, ON5 samples is 1~3cm, other grain
size is similar from 2~5mm. On naked eyes, color of center is dark
green, rim is brown to black. Zoning is well developed on 001 side of
macrocrystallin tourmaline, from core to rim color is getting dark,
some have 1 boundary, others have 2~3 boundary. Grain of ON1 is
too small to observe these things on naked eyes but grain of ON3, 5,
7 are well discovered on naked eyes. Oscillatory fine scale zoning is
also observed. These chemical zoning is well observed in
microscope image. (Fig.26). In microscope, color of core is light blue
to green and color of rim is light brown or olive green. Samples cut
to C-axis vertically show zoning well such as ON1-1, ON1-2, ON5,
ON7 samples. Boundary due to chemical difference show well. ON1
19
samples shows 2 boundaries. But samples of ON3 are show subtle
boundary. It is considered that they are not cut to C-axis vertically.
To know chemical difference, BSE images are taken. (Fig.27). In the
case of ON1 samples, zoning is identified, and ON7 samples are well
observed. On contrary it is difficult to find zoning in ON3, ON5
samples.
4.4 Tourmaline geochemistry
Tourmaline is boron silicate mineral have complex chemical
composition because of various element replacement. General
chemical formula is written in many paper, (Henry et al., 1985; jolliff
et al., 1986; London manning et al., 1995), in this paper chemical
formula of tourmaline is used as XY3Z6Si6B3O27(OH,O,F)4. X site is
polyhedral and mainly composed of Na, also various amount of Ca, K,
Mg. Y site is octahedral site and mainly composed of Mg, Fe2+, Fe3+,
Mn, Cr, Li. Z site is octahedral site and mainly composed of Al. Like
20
this, on each X,Y and Z site, element replacement of cation is broad,
change of chemical composition is very big. So it is general to
indicate tourmaline's chemical composition using end member.(Henry
et al 1985., Jolliff et al 1986, London et al 1995) (Fig.28). Almost
natural tourmalines are solid solution of schorl-dravite or schorl-
elbaite. But there is no solid solution between dravite and elbaite.
(Deer et al. 1962). By Benard et al. (1985) expecially, schorl-
dravite solid solution have typical characteristic of peralumonous
granitic rocks. Boron in magma stage influence correlation with felsic
magma. (Chorlton and Martin., 1987)
When express element replacement of cation, it is general to
express it by exchange vector. EPMA analysis is conducted that
tourmaline cut to C-axis vertically (ON1, ON3, ON5, ON 7). The
number of grains is 14, and total point analysed is 32 (Table3). The
number of cation of analyzed data is calculated by 24.5 oxygen
normalized. Content of SiO2 is 35~38Wt%, has similar range and
content of Al2O3 is 34~36%, show small range. Ratio of Fe/(Fe+Mg)
is 0.75~0.95, has wide range, and ratio of Na/(Na+Ca) is 0.90~0.97,
have relatively high value and narrow range. Result of EPMA
analysis are plotted in Al-Fe-Mg triangular diagram.(Fig.29.)
21
According to this diagram, core and rim part are plotted in Li-poor
granitoids and their associated pegmatite. These tourmaline is close
to schorl, between schorl-elbaite, and have environment of poor Mg,
rich Fe, poor Ca. Also, according to Ca-Fe-Mg triangular diagram
(Henty and Guitotti., 1985), core and rim part are plotted in Li-poor
granitoids and their associated pegmatite and aplites (Fig.30). In this
diagram, it is identify that these are close to schorl of schorl-dravite
solid solution. It is thought that this is affluence from parent rock
having more rich Fe content than Mg content. As I said, zoning is
discovered in tourmaline, zoltan & shout(1984) indicated that reason
of this is in rapid growth, dispersion rate of certain didn’t catch up
crystalline rate. Lofgen(1980) in melt of igneous rock, if rapid
decrease of volatile and rapid change of temperature, zoning is
repeated.
ON 1, 3, 5 have lower Fe/(Fe+Mg) and Na/(Na+Ca) content in rim
than in core generally. ON 7 have little bit higher Fe/(Fe+Mg) and
Na/(Na+Ca) content in rim than in core. These means ON 1, 3, 5
grow toward in environment having little Fe, more Ca and ON 7 is
vice versa.
These three samples show chemical zoning. Figure.31 shows core

to rim compositional scans of four tourmaline grains that are cut
perpendicular to their c-axis from differnt types of samples. All
grains have similar variation trends showing relative minor changes
in their Al and Si contents with normally Al > Si. Changes in Na and
Ca contents are also small with Na > Ca. These two element have
tendency of increase to rim. But large inverse changes between Fe
and Mg exist for all tourmalines, which may indicate that the fluids
responsible for tourmaline growth had varying Fe/Mg ratios during
the hydrothermal processes.
In substitution vector (Fig.32) Fe-Mg content in Y is maximum 3
p.f.u(per formula unit). But It shows that contents of core and rim
are under 3 p.f.u line. This means that Al substitute in Y. Plotted
points in left side means this tourmaline close to schorl between
schorl and elbaite solid solution.
If Al entered in Y , another site (i.e., in the X site) have deficiency of
alkali element or hydrogen because of charge balances.(Fig.33). In
fig.33 points of core and rim are plotted near alkali-deficiency
substitution vector [{[X]AlNa}{(Fe,Mg)}-1] and hydrogen-
deficiency substitution vector [[{Z]O}{[Y]OH}-1]. It indicated
that Al contents is abundant when tourmaline were formed. This is
23
appear in tourmaline formed from hydrothermal fluid originated from
magma. (London and Manning, 1995)
During ferrischorl substitution occur from core to rim (Fig.34.), Al
substitute into Fe, {Ca(Fe,Mg)}{NaAl}-1 and opposite of
([X]Al)(Na(Fe,Mg))-1 are occur. This means that chemical
composition of hydrothermal fluid change into environment having
rich-Fe contents. From core to rim, opposite of alkali-deficiency
substitution vector occur, which means Al comes out and alkali
contents come into tourmaline. It can be found that in table3.
Ferrischorl (ferric oxide)substitution Fe3+Al-1 means oxidation
state of hydrothermal fluid increase at late period making rim of
tourmaline. This can be done by mixture of hydrothermal fluid and
supergene water which is more oxidizing fluid or boiling of
hydrothermal fluid, (Jolliff et al 1986; London and Manning , 1995).
In fig.34 Al contents is abundant in the first place. When rim are
made, Al contents decrease little bit, but Al contents is rich still. And
value of Fe/(Fe+Mg) contents is also high. Left side means Al deficit
and right side means Al surplus in Z site. Ferrischorl (ferric
oxide)substitution Fe3+Al-1 occur in Z site.

5. Conclusion
Among three terrain in Northern Victoria land, Antarctica, Lichen
hills and Outback Nunatak rocks have Granite Habour Intrusive
intruded in Ross Orogeny. By petrography, Lichen hills samples are
devided into Granite Habour Intrusive and Ferrar dolerite. Outback
Nunatak samples are devided into Granite Habour Intrusive and
Precambrian schist. Although these two area's lithography have
Granite Habour Intrusive, there are characteristic differences.
Lichen hills granitoids are two-mica granite and leucogranite. But
Outback Nunatak granitoids are pegmatic granite and have well-
developed tourmaline. In progress of tourmaline formation, boron
contents are critical factor. By judging litography, it is possible that
precambrian schist is source of boron.
By chemical analysis, Lichen hills rocks show characteristics of S-
type granite. Their Na2O contents is under 3.2% and
Al2O3/Na2O+K2O+CaO is over 1.5. But Outback Nunatak rocks Na2O
contents is over 3.2%. And it is uncertain that it is S-type granite
rather than Lichen hills rocks. By Loiselle and Wones(1979), A-
type granitoid is introduced. Outback nunatak rocks characteristics
are correspond to this ; high SiO2 contents(over 73.81%), high Na
25
contents, low Cr contents, low LILE/HFSE , high Fe/Mg , Zr high.
Judging by these things, whereas Lichen hills Granite Habour
Intrusive are made in brisk period of Ross orogeny, Outback
Nunatak Granite Habour Intrusive intrude in late period of Ross
orogeny; Stable caton rift zone . To guess its environment of last
stage of hydrothermal fluid, tourmalines in Outback Nunatak are
investigated. These fluids have Al-rich, Fe-rich, Mg -poor state at
first, and during crystalliztion progress, Fe contents increase, Al
contents decrese. These means mixture of hydrothermal fluid and
supergene water which is more oxidizing fluid or boiling of
hydrothermal fluid. (London and Manning , 1995). Another reason
why tourmaline exist in only Outback Nunatk's is that Outback
Nunatk's have high-Fe-Mg value. If Fe-Mg value is high, even
though late stage of differentiation, there are much Fe-Mg contents
to make tourmaline. That is, because Outback Nunatak rocks contain
precambrian schist, there is possibility that tourmaline are made by
Fe-Mg contents supplied by schist. In short, granitic pegmatite in
Outback Nunatak are made by intrude of hydrothermal fluid
originated late stage magma.
Although there is no ore mineral discovered, because tourmaline
26
study suggest that Outback Nunatak's formation enviroment having
rich Al, Fe. It is good indicator to find out ore originated from
Igneous.

남극 북빅토리아 랜드, 라이켄 힐즈,
아웃백 누나탁 지역의 화강암질
페그마타이트의 광물학적 지구화학적 연구
페그마타이트는 화강암과 유사한 조성을 가진 거정질 암석이다.
이러한 페그마타이트에는 붕소 함유량이 높은 전기석이 다량
함유되어 있다. 전기석의 일반적인 화학식은
XY3Z6Si6B3O27(OH,O,F)4와 같다. 이러한 전기석은 퇴적 및 암석
형성 당시 환경에 대한 정보를 제공해준다. 그렇기 때문에
암석발생학적 지시자로서 증요성을 가지고 있다. 또한, 결정 내 화학
조성의 변화는 전기석 결정 생성 당시의 물리적, 화학적 변화를
내포한다. 이번 연구 지역은 남극 북빅토리아 랜드 내 위치한
라이켄힐즈, 아웃백누나탁 지역이다. 라이켄힐즈 지역의 암상은
화강암질 암석과, 우백질 화강암, 조립현무암으로 구성되어 있다.
아웃백누나탁 지역의 경우에는 화강암질 페그마타이트와 선캠브리아
편암으로 구성된다. 두 지역의 암상은 같은 Granite Hobour
Intrusive 이지만 세부적 기원에 있어 차이점을 보인다. 라이켄힐즈

지역의 암석의 경우 좀 더 S-type에 가까운 모습을 보인다. 또한,
아웃백누나탁 페그마타이트에서는 전기석이 잘 관찰된다. 거정질의
전기석에는 001면으로 화학적 누대구조가 잘 발달되어 있다. 이러한
전기석은 화학 분석시 스코올-엘바이트 고용체에 속하며 Li, Mg
양이 부족하고 Al, Fe가 풍부한 환경에서 형성되었음을 지시한다.
중심에서 가장자리로 갈수록 페리스코올 치환이 일어나게 되는데
이는 전기석의 가장자리 형성 시기에 열수의 유입으로 인한 산화
상태의 증가나 높은 산화 상태를 가진 지상수의 혼합 혹은 열수의
끓음을 암시한다.
