| Abstract | The Siberian flood basalts (SFB) make up one of the world’s largest known magmatic province and cover a vast area of the northern Siberian platform. The northeastern flank of the SFB province is occupied by the Maymecha-Kotuy ultramafic-alkaline complex consisting of enormous volumes of alkaline lavas, numerous dikes, and the Guli massif comprising many smaller alkaline plutons. The genetic relationship between SFB and the Maymecha-Kotuy complex continues to be a matter of considerable debate. Despite the fact that the rocks of both blocks have almost the same age, close to the Permian-Triassic boundary, there are still major uncertainties in the relative succession of emplacement and the source material for each lithology present. On the basis of previous petrological, geochemical, and isotopic results, this study attempted to put tighter limits on possible relationships between SFB and alkaline rocks.A U-Pb whole-rock age of 250 ± 9 Ma was obtained for the Guli rocks, which is consistent with known dates for the SFB. The Guli rocks have Pb isotopic compositions that lie in the lower part of the OIB field, whereas the dunites and carbonatites plot outside OIB toward the MORB array, suggesting a more depleted source than that for SFB. The combined Pb, Sr, and Nd isotope systematics for SFB and Guli alkaline rocks allow identification of several distinct source components. One component is a major contributor to many Guli rocks and has low $^{87}$Sr/$^{86}$Sr ratios (0.7031 to 0.7038), high ɛ$_{Nd}$ values (+5.35 to + 3.97), and a relatively unradiogenic Pb composition ($^{206}$Pb/$^{204}$Pb = 17.88−18.31; $^{207}$Pb/$^{204}$Pb = 15.38−15.46, and $^{208}$Pb/$^{204}$Pb = 37.33−37.70), which is attributed to a depleted mantle source (MORB-type). The second component, which represents the major portion of SFB, displays fairly homogeneous chemistry and isotope compositions with $^{87}$Sr/$^{86}$Sr of 0.7046–0.7052, ɛ$_{Nd}$ from 0 to + 2.5, and mean Pb isotopic characteristics of $^{206}$Pb/$^{204}$Pb = 18.3, $^{207}$Pb/$^{204}$Pb = 15.5, and $^{208}$Pb/$^{204}$Pb = 38.0. This component, a major contributor to SFB, is presumably a relatively primitive lower-mantle plume with near-chondritic signatures. Minor contamination with upper and lower crust is invoked as the third and fourth components to explain the isotopic characteristics of some of SFB and high-silica Guli rocks. Finally, the metasomatic event associated with the Siberian superplume activity contributed as the fifth component and caused the unusual enrichment in REE and related elements in some of SFB and Guli rocks. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
