Abstract

New data on osmiumisotopic compositions of four seafloor massive sulfide samples from the TAG hydrothermal field has been got,the 187Os/186Os ratios of massive sulfide samples vary from2.305 to 7.879,with a mean of 5.986,these ratios are bet ween that of modern seawater and upper oceanic crust,and this range of Os isotopic compositions is likely the result of mixing of seawater with upper oceanic crust,maybe about 56 % of osmium in the massive sulfides is from the seawater,and 44 % is fromt he upper oceanic crust. The mixing of seawater with hydrothermal fluid have an obvious effect on the Os concentration and isotope composition of massive sulfi de during the seafloor hydrothermal activity.
