ABSTRACT

Muria volcano is located in the north coast of Central Java, in a northward extending land known as Muria Peninsula. Muria volcano has long been known as an anomaly of volcanoes in Java due to its different features, most conspicuous viewed from its position, compared to the other volcanoes, which is not located in regular pattern of Java’s volcanic arc.

Purposes of this research are identifying characteristic of Muria magma, finding out relationships between characteristic of Muria erupted lavas which is expressed in mineralogy and geochemical to its tectonic setting, the last is proposing petrogenesis of Muria volcano. Methods used in this research are survey method, descriptive method, and laboratory method. Extended by analytical method include petrography analysis and chemical analysis. K-Ware Magma software is used in helping these analyses.

Igneous rocks from Muria volcano have intermediate to ultrabasic character regarding to its silica abundances with molecule weight percentage of SiO2 = 44.25 to 55.42. Respects to silica saturation, these rocks are ranged from silica saturated which consists only saturated minerals, to silica undersaturated which essentially contains minerals such as olivine and feldspathoids i.e.: leucite and nepheline. Magma series of Muria volcano fall into the alkaline magma series shown by molecule weight percentage of Na2O + K2O = 9.24 to 10.1, then its subdivision is ranging from K-series to high-K series. Muria volcano is a typical of transitional volcanism between island arc and intra-continental plate environment regarding to its tectonic setting. Enrichment of lithophile elements (LILE) along with niobium anomaly in spiderdiagram marks an involvement of subduction zone fluid added to the mantle source of magma during partial melting. However, niobium anomaly still is not showing real depletion of niobium whereas it is truly has been slightly enriched from mid-ocean ridge basalt (MORB) value. Slight enrichment of the other high field strength elements (HFSE) marks the existence of magma source rich of incompatible elements i.e.: strontium, rubidium, barium, potassium, thorium, niobium and group of rare earth elements.

Keywords: geochemistry, magma, muria, mineralogy, petrography, tectonic

INTRODUCTION Background

Muria volcano has long been known as an anomaly of volcanoes in Java due to its different features. Indeed, this unusual magma emanation feature should have certain characteristics such as expressed in many igneous provinces with certain tectonic patterns. However, studying a lot of characteristic related to this issue is impossible at one time. Nevertheless, some attempts to provide information regarding to igneous petrogenesis in such from mineralogy and geochemical data are now considered to be more petrogenesis-oriented by many igneous petrologist.

In order to make a more petrogenesis-oriented approach, this research is performed by two way identification which each other are closely related, petrography and chemical analysis. Petrography is preferable in identifying optical features from rock forming minerals and texture which strongly indicate crystallization processes within igneous rocks. Chemical analysis is also desirable as hint at mineral content even though it tells nothing about rock textures. These two way identification are intended to be combined in order to make a comprehensive igneous rock data within the Muria. This combination would really be a help to get the brighter answers in discussing

times from MORB value although the surrounding trace element abundances are higher or have far more richer and still make a trough-look at Nb. But this trough is not as strong as that displayed by purely subduction-related magma.

Wilson (1989) on her book wrote distinguishing feature when reading spiderdiagram patterns of different magma sources:

“Compared to the relatively smooth shapes of the MORB and OIB spiderdiagrams, that of the subduction-related basalt is strongly spiked. …, the positive spikes are mostly a consequence of components added to the mantle source of basalts by subduction zone fluids [p. 21].”

Spiderdiagram pattern is not only rather spiked but also convex. The causes of spiked-convex feature are due to incompatible trace element addition which has been explained above. This transitional pattern indeed marks transitional tectonic environment of Muria volcano from island arc to intra-plate environment; or to OIB according to statement of Wilson (1989). Take a look on real geological setting of Muria volcano, the island arc respects to recent Java Arc, and then the intra-plate environment respects to Sunda plate or southeast part of the great Eurasian plate. The matching of spiderdiagram pattern for Muria volcano to standard pattern used by Pearce (1983) and its designation of tectonic environment might be seen in Figure 4.37 which is placed in the next page.

Petrogenetic Model of Muria Volcano Muria magma has already passed such a complex processes in its genesis involving subduction-modified magma sources at mantle depth and contamination of crustal rocks in the upper level. Explanation for overall petrogenetic of Muria volcano is written below, while the visualization model might be seen in Fig. 10. Assimilation due to contamination of magma by sedimentary rocks is strongly proven by the evidence of remained large xenoliths consist of sedimentary origin rock in Rahtawu cauldron. Igneous rocks from Muria volcano are product of the alkaline magmatism with emphasis on potassic character. The magma

series ranged from K-series to high-K series. Mineralogy data has proven alkaline related minerals association within igneous rocks such as leucite, alkali feldspar, plagioclase, olivine, clinopyroxene, hornblende, and biotite. These minerals association express the alkaline magma affinity with some of them are potash-bearing minerals e.g.: feldspathoids, alkali feldspars, and biotite. As the element of K, Na, and Si which is relatively concentrated in the more evolved magma, it also can be related to their behavior of tendency being concentrated in the crustal rocks. These elements are termed lithophile in geochemistry because of their tendency for being concentrated in silicate phase. Crustal rocks which in case of petrogenesis of Muria volcano are the sedimentary rocks which induced assimilation of Muria magma, and now remained as xenoliths. Looking at the position from the main island arc of Java, Muria volcano occurred in the back arc setting where sediments tend to be deposited in large amount. This position of occurrence may explain why Muria magma suffered high contamination and resulting in the alkaline affinity magma. Igneous rocks from Muria volcano also having a set of silica spectrum ranging from ultrabasic to intermediate, which also to be a proof of differentiated magma product. Modification of magma composition results might be explained using Bowen’s reaction series where the last minerals formed in the series proving the more differentiated or evolved magma product. The more differentiated magma is relatively younger than undifferentiated one within period of volcanic activity of Muria volcano. However, to ensure the source of Muria magma origin, this research also focused its concern on trace element. The trace element analysis has resulting in a transitional pattern of magma sources between two different tectonic settings. First is the involvement a subduction-zone in the south of Java which responsible in producing LILE concentrated fluid from remelting of oceanic crust of oceanic plate of Indian plate and subducted sediments from both reworked continental rocks of Sunda plate and oceanic sediments. In reality, oceanic crust in general has trace element composition similar to MORB because it is actually rocks which were

times from MORB value although the

surrounding trace element abundances are higher or have far more richer and still make a trough-look at Nb. But this trough is not as strong as that displayed by purely subduction-related magma.

Wilson (1989) on her book wrote distinguishing feature when reading spiderdiagram patterns of different magma sources:

“Compared to the relatively smooth shapes of the MORB and OIB spiderdiagrams, that of the subduction-related basalt is strongly spiked. …, the positive spikes are mostly a consequence of components added to the mantle source of basalts by subduction zone fluids [p. 21].”

Spiderdiagram pattern is not only rather spiked but also convex. The causes of spiked-convex feature are due to incompatible trace element addition which has been explained above. This transitional pattern indeed marks transitional tectonic environment of Muria volcano from island arc to intra-plate environment; or to OIB according to statement of Wilson (1989). Take a look on real geological setting of Muria volcano, the island arc respects to recent Java Arc, and then the intra-plate environment respects to Sunda plate or southeast part of the great Eurasian plate. The matching of spiderdiagram pattern for Muria volcano to standard pattern used by Pearce (1983) and its designation of tectonic environment might be seen in Figure 4.37 which is placed in the next page.

Petrogenetic Model of Muria Volcano

Muria magma has already passed such a complex processes in its genesis involving subduction-modified magma sources at mantle depth and contamination of crustal rocks in the upper level. Explanation for overall petrogenetic of Muria volcano is written below, while the visualization model might be seen in Fig. 10. Assimilation due to contamination of magma by sedimentary rocks is strongly proven by the evidence of remained large xenoliths consist of sedimentary origin rock in Rahtawu cauldron. Igneous rocks from Muria volcano are product of the alkaline magmatism with emphasis on potassic character. The magma

series ranged from K-series to high-K series. Mineralogy data has proven alkaline related minerals association within igneous rocks such as leucite, alkali feldspar, plagioclase, olivine, clinopyroxene, hornblende, and biotite. These minerals association express the alkaline magma affinity with some of them are potash-bearing minerals e.g.: feldspathoids, alkali feldspars, and biotite. As the element of K, Na, and Si which is relatively concentrated in the more evolved magma, it also can be related to their behavior of tendency being concentrated in the crustal rocks. These elements are termed lithophile in geochemistry because of their tendency for being concentrated in silicate phase. Crustal rocks which in case of petrogenesis of Muria volcano are the sedimentary rocks which induced assimilation of Muria magma, and now remained as xenoliths. Looking at the position from the main island arc of Java, Muria volcano occurred in the back arc setting where sediments tend to be deposited in large amount. This position of occurrence may explain why Muria magma suffered high contamination and resulting in the alkaline affinity magma. Igneous rocks from Muria volcano also having a set of silica spectrum ranging from ultrabasic to intermediate, which also to be a proof of differentiated magma product. Modification of magma composition results might be explained using Bowen’s reaction series where the last minerals formed in the series proving the more differentiated or evolved magma product. The more differentiated magma is relatively younger than undifferentiated one within period of volcanic activity of Muria volcano. However, to ensure the source of Muria magma origin, this research also focused its concern on trace element. The trace element analysis has resulting in a transitional pattern of magma sources between two different tectonic settings. First is the involvement a subduction-zone in the south of Java which responsible in producing LILE concentrated fluid from remelting of oceanic crust of oceanic plate of Indian plate and subducted sediments from both reworked continental rocks of Sunda plate and oceanic sediments. In reality, oceanic crust in general has trace element composition similar to MORB because it is actually rocks which were
