The Hidra Massif (Rogaland complex, S.W. Norway) is a massif-type anorthositic-charnockitic body. It consists of undeformed anorthosites and leuconorites, grading into fine-grained jotunites at the contact with the granulite facies gneisses of the metamorphic envelope. A stockwork of charnockitic dykes cross-cuts the massif. The Pb isotopic compositions of the anorthosites and leuconorites are comparable or slightly less radiogenic than those of the jotunites ( 206 Pb / 204 Pb from 18.079 to 19.307,( 207 Pb / 204 Pb from 15.568 to 15.657 and 208 Pb / 204 Pb from 37.617 to 38.493). These values are compatible with an upper mantle origin for the parental magma of jotunitic composition and for the plagioclasic cumulates, but show the incorporation of lower crustal material (U-depleted and thus less radiogenic). The charnockitic dykes have significantly less radiogenic Pb isotopic compositions ( 206 Pb / 204 Pb from 17.472 to 19.171, 207 Pb / 204 Pb from 15.489 to 15.620and 208 Pb / 204 Pb from 36.991 to 40.922) which can be explained by a larger proportion of lower crustal contamination material. The contaminant could be the granulite facies gneisses of the metamorphic envelope. This interpretation is compatible with the K-Rb relationships of these rocks and with the O and Sr isotopic geochemistry. The proportion of contaminating lead in the charnockitic dykes can be estimated at 55 ± 15% considering the border facies jotunite as the uncontaminated parental magma and the least radiogenic gneiss of the metamorphic envelope as the contaminant.
