| Abstract/Notes | A unique Li–Na metasomatic rock from Iwagi Islet in Southwest (SW) Japan is an episyenite that contains new Li-rich minerals, including sugilite, katayamalite, murakamiite, and ferro-ferri-holmquistite. We present petrographical, mineralogical, and geochronological data for the protoliths and episyenite. We classified the metasomatic rocks based on the mineral assemblages, from the protolith biotite granite to albitized granite, quartz albitite, hedenbergite albitite, aegirine albitite, sugilite albitite, and katayamalite albitite. The protolith of hedenbergite albitites may have been metasomatic granite that has been subjected to calcic skarnization. Albitites are formed related to fractures and shear zones that focused the fluid flow and metasomatism. Extensive albitization and formation of abundant Li minerals requires involvement of external Li-Na-Cl-rich fluids, which might be related to deep high-temperature Arima-like brines derived from dehydration of the subducted oceanic slab. Formation of the albitites began with quartz dissolution and vug formation, and record interface-coupled dissolution–reprecipitation processes in an open system. The 40Ar/39Ar age of 91.5 ± 0.3 Ma determined for the katayamalite is slightly younger than the protolith zircon U–Pb age of 93.5 ± 1.7 Ma (Turonian), reasonably explaining the timing of Li–Na metasomatism after the petrogenesis of host granites. |
