Their variable incompatible element abundances and radiogenic isotopic ratios reflect recycling of subducted oceanic or continental crustal material into their source reservoirs. However, whole-rock geochemical and Sr-Nd isotopic data do not well constrain the nature of this recycled crustal material because of complex petrogenetic processes, i.e., crustal assimilation, fractional crystallization, magma mixing, and post-magmatic alteration. Here we present an integrated study of in situ Hf-O isotopes in zircons from two Triassic alkaline complexes in the northeastern Sino-Korean craton, i.e., the Hekanzi and Saima alkaline complexes. The Hekanzi alkaline rocks have zircon εHf(t) values of −2.5 to +0.6 and sub-normal mantle δ18O (+3.8‰ to +5.4‰), indicating a component of high-temperature altered oceanic crust involved in their mantle source prior to magma generation. In contrast, the Saima alkaline rocks have extremely negative zircon εHf(t) (−11 to −14) and elevated δ18O (+7.1‰ to +8.4‰) values, suggesting continental crust recycled into their mantle source prior to magma generation. Our results show that the combined zircon Hf and O isotopes are powerful tracers to distinguish recycled continental crust from recycled oceanic crust and, importantly, provide compelling evidence for recycled continental crust in the sources of alkaline rocks.
