...David M. Cox; Carol D. Frost; Kevin R. Chamberlain Abstract The Kennedy dike swarm of the central and northern Laramie Mountains is the most extensive Precambrian dike swarm of the Wyoming province. The dikes occupy from 15 to 20% of a 100-km-wide exposure of Archean basement, and include diabasic...

Initial Nd and Sr isotopic compositions of Kennedy dike swarm samples compared to isotopic compositions of potential source materials at 2.01 Ga. The Nd isotopic compositions of the dikes are consistent with derivation from a depleted mantle source contaminated with 1–2% of felsic Archean crust. Data from Table 3; depleted mantle and Archean compositions given in Table 4.

Interpretation of the Kennedy dike swarm in southeastern Wyoming as part of an early passive margin-failed arm rift system, after a model for continental mafic dike swarms proposed by Fahrig (1987). According to this model, a complementary set of passive margin dikes and a failed arm dike swarm were formed on the continent that rifted away from the Wyoming province at 2.01 Ga. This continental block and dikes have yet to be identified, although the Lac de Gras dike swarm in the Slave province is nearly the same age as the Kennedy dike swarm.

Plot of Pb isotopic compositions of feldspar and whole rocks from the Kennedy dike swarm. Fields of potential source rocks are also shown, including contemporary mantle, based upon the model evolution of Zartman and Doe (1981), and Archean rocks exposed to the north in the Laramie Mountains (Verts et al., 1996; Bell, 1998; Chamberlain and Bowring, in press). Feldspar Pb isotopic compositions from other regions of the Wyoming province are shown for reference: eastern Beartooth Mountains (EBT) from Wooden and Mueller (1988), Wind River Mountains (WR) from Frost et al. (1998). Typical 238U/204Pb values (μ) for upper crust range from 8 to 12. The Pb isotopic composition of Archean crust in the Laramie Mountains at 2.01 Ga is variable; mixtures of model mantle and a range of compositions of Archean crust are indicated by the shaded triangle. The feldspar analyses from the Kennedy dike swarm lie within or near this triangle, present-day whole rock values lie to the right due to production of radiogenic Pb by U decay between 2.01 Ga and the present. The elevated 207Pb/204Pb ratios of feldspars and whole rocks from the Kennedy dike swarm are interpreted to indicate incorporation of Archean crust into a mantle-derived parental magma.

A, U-Pb concordia diagrams for the Kennedy diabase; B, periodotite; and C, plagioclase porphyry; together with D, a concordia diagram showing data for samples with baddeleyite rimmed with metamorphic zircon. The data are interpreted to indicate that the Kennedy dike swarm was emplaced at 2.01 Ga, and that metamorphic zircon and sphene grew during regional metamorphism and deformation associated with the Medicine Bow orogeny at 1.76 Ga. The U-Pb system in apatite was also reset during regional metamorphism (this study; Chamberlain and Bowring, in press).

Sketch map of Precambrian rocks exposed in southeastern Wyoming, modified from Chamberlain (1998). Basement north of the Cheyenne belt is the Archean Wyoming province, south is the Proterozoic Colorado province. The Kennedy dike swarm intrudes Archean basement in the Laramie Mountains north of the suture between the Archean and Proterozoic provinces. This suture is exposed in the Medicine Bow Mountains and Sierra Madre as a series of shear zones, but in the Laramie Mountains its trace has been obliterated by emplacement of 1.43-Ga intrusions. WY = Wyoming province, SP = Superior province.
