Abstract
Las rocas miocenas de la base de la unidad comendítica de Monte Ulmus
(vitrófiro basal negro e ignimbrita rosa) han proporcionado una abundante y
ubicua presencia de xenolitos de rocas carbonáticas pirometamorfizadas. La
paragénesis presente sugiere un episodio progradante y uno retrogradante
(siendo éste producido por el enfriamiento post-emplazamiento de las rocas
piroclásticas) que dan una idea (en especial el retrógrado) de la (rápida) cinética de los procesos de reacción. Los datos de isotopía del Sr confirman, una
vez comparados con los de los principales afloramientos del substrato de la
región del Sulcis, que un protolito cámbrico está implicado en la génesis de
los xenolitos en la parte superior de una cámara magmática
The Miocene pyroclastic rocks at the base of the comenditic Monte Ulmus unit (black vitrophyre and pink ignimbrite) have yielded a ubiquitous and abundant population of xenoliths of pyrometamorphosed calcareous rocks coming from the substrate. The paragenesis suggests a prograde and a retrograde episode (the latter clearly related to the postemplacement cooling of pyroclastic unit), and gives an idea of the (quick) kinetics of reaction processes. The Sr isotope data, by comparison to those of the main carbonatic outcrops of the Sulcis area, confirm that a Cambrian protolith is involved in the genesis of xenoliths at the upper part of a magmatic chamber
