Abstract

The chemical composition of zircons from lithium-fluorine granite of the Severny pluton in the Chaun region, Chukchi Peninsula, has been studied. The magmatic origin of zircons has been established. Elevated LREE, Li, and Nb contents; moderate enrichment in Hf; and deep Eu anomalies are characteristic of zircons from rare-metal granite. The contents and distribution of chemical elements in studied zircons differ from those of biotite granite. Zircons from lithium-fluorine granite of the Severny pluton also differ from the worldwide analogs in moderate Hf, Y, and REE concentrations and extremely low contents of U, Th, and other incompatible elements.
