Abstract/NotesThis paper reports the results from an investigation on the geochemistry and petrogenesis of the Aptian Li-F granites from the Omchikandya, Burgali, and Arga Ynnakh Khaya ore fields in the northern Verkhoyansk–Kolyma orogenic belt in eastern Russia. Li-F microcline–albite granites intrude the Late Jurassic to Early Cretaceous syn-collisional granitoids. According to their geochemical composition, they are close to A-type granites and can be subdivided into low-P and high-P varieties, differing in their geochemistry and genesis. The low-P microcline–albite granites (Omchikandya massif) intrude syn-collisional biotite granites. It is assumed that the formation of their parent melt occurred at deep levels in the same magma chamber that produced biotite granites. The high-P granites (Verkhne–Burgali ethmolith and Kester harpolith) are supposed to have been derived from melts originated from a high-grade metamorphosed lower crustal protolith under the influence of deep-seated fluid flows related to diapirs of alkaline-ultrabasic or alkaline-basic composition. It is supposed that their formation was related to post-collisional extension during the early stages of the evolution of the Aptian–Late Cretaceous Indigirka belt of crust extension. All studied Li-F granites are enriched with rare metals and have associated Li deposits with accompanying Sn, W, Ta, and Nb mineralization. In the low-P Li-F Omchikandya massif, mineralization tends to occur within greisenized granites and greisens in their apical parts. In the high-P granite massifs, mineralization is found throughout their volume, and, therefore, the Verkhne–Burgali ethmolith and Kester harpolith can be considered as large ore bodies. There is a direct dependence of the content and reserves of Li2O on the content of P2O5. Minimum Li2O reserves are established in low-P Li-F microcline–albite granites of the Polyarnoe deposit of the Omchikandya ore field, whereas in the high-P granites of the Verkhne–Burgali and Kester deposits, the Li2O reserves are significantly higher.
