Chemical composition and age of magmatic rocks from the underwater Hokkaido Rise

Geological and geophysical investigations carried out within the Hokkaido Rise showed that intrusives composing outcrops of the crystalline basement on the ocean floor form a continuous series from monzonites and diorite-monzonites to granites with prevalence of granodiorites with stable mineralogical association: biotite - hornblende - K-feldspar. Acidic volcanic rocks are characterized by a similar mineralogical association with almost complete absence of plagioclase-pyroxene species. It seems that the Hokkaido Rise, as well as the marginal oceanic Zenkevich swell as a whole are not primary oceanic structural formations and have undergone a complex and long history of geological development with intense orogenic movements that occurred in Middle Cretaceous and preceded subalkaline basalt outpouring during postorogenic subsidence of the Earth crust.
