四国中央部大歩危地域に分布する三波川結晶片岩類は,原岩層序に基づき構造的上位から下位に向かい三縄層,小歩危層,川口層に分類されてきた.今回,それぞれの層から火成ジルコンを分離し,LA-ICP-MSを用いてU-Pb年代測定を行った結果,三縄層中のジルコンの多くが1900-1800Maの火成年代を示した.一方,小歩危層・川口層中のジルコンから得られた火成年代は三縄層よりも若く,その中で最も若い年代は,それぞれ92±4Ma,82±11Maであった.両層の堆積年代は更に若く,その年代は,四万十帯北帯の付加年代と一致する.このことから,従来,三波川帯と見なされてきた小歩危層,川口層は,四万十帯北帯であることが明らかになった.したがって,三縄層と小歩危層の層境界は,三波川帯/四万十帯境界にあたる.また,大歩危地域における構造的累重関係は,三波川変成帯が四万十帯の構造的上位に位置することを示している.

The Japanese Islands have grown through the formation of igneous rocks and accretionary prism caused by subduction of oceanic plates. However, the timing of the initiation of the subduction is not well defined. The South Kitakami Belt (SKB) in NE Japan is the best field to solve this problem. Here, basement igneous rocks are covered by successions of Ordovician to Early Cretaceous beds (450-100 Ma). We obtained LA-ICP-MS U-Pb zircon ages from the following localities. Along the Yakushigawa-Valley section in the northeastern part of the SKB, we examined the ages of (1) trondhjemite of the Kagura Complex of basement igneous rocks, (2) felsic tuff of the Koguro Formation conformably covering the Kagura Complex, and (3) Yakushigawa Formation covering the Koguro Formation and lying under the Silurian Odagoe Formation. In the Ohasama area in the northwestern part of the SKB, we examined the age of (4) Nameirizawa Formation, which probably lies below the Silurian Orikabetoge Formation. Moreover, we examined the ages of four samples from the Hikami Granite body in the central part of the SKB. The ages of trondhjemite (08331-5: 466±6 Ma) of the Kagura Complex and felsic tuff (08331-4b: 457±10 Ma) of the Koguro Formation indicate that the subduction of an oceanic plate had already started at 466 Ma, and that the Koguro Formation is the oldest age-known formation of the SKB. The tuffaceous sandstone of the Yakushigawa Formation (08331-3) has detrital zircons with the youngest age cluster of around 425 Ma, and is probably a Silurian formation. The tuffaceous sandstone of the Nameirizawa Formation (08331-9) has detrital zircons with the youngest age cluster of around 430 Ma. The formation is probably a Silurian formation and is correlated with the Yakushigawa Formation. Precise ages of around 412 Ma were obtained from the Hikamiyama body of the Hikami Granitic Rocks (08330-1,-3,-4), clearly suggesting that at least some parts of the body are not pre-Silurian basement.
