Abstract
In the calc-alkaline rocks of Peru, the rubidium content and the K/Ba, Rb/Sr ratios increase, while the strontium content and the K/Rb, Ba/Rb ratios decrease according to the distance of the trench. It is suggested that theses variations are related to a fractionation of plagioclase and contamination with differential migration of mobile elements. A comparative study between andesites of various localities shows in Peru an enrichment in Rb, Sr and Ba and a disparition of the Rb-Ba correlation; this last observation looks characteristic of continental margin andesites. The shoshonitic rocks differ from the andesites by a high content of Sr and Ba. The genetic relationships between these two kinds of rocks are discussed. It appears that the shoshonites are originated from a different magmatic source.
