Consideraciones petrogenéticas sobre el plutón de Cardeña-Virgen de La Cabeza (batolito de Los Pedroches, España) a la luz de los datos experimentales

Abstract

The Cardena-Virgen de La Cabeza pluton is an high-K peraluminous granitoid wich forms a part ot the Los Pedroches batholith (Central Iberian Zone). Taking account the chemical features of its major elements and comparing with some experimental melts, we conclude that its origin is comparable with mantle-crustal interaction processes. This aspect seems to be confirmed by the petrologic features of the pluton, its isotopic filiation, and also by the geodynamic enviroment where is emplaced
