Abstract
This dataset article contains petrographic and mineral-glass chemical data of igneous rock clasts from Early Oligocene Aveto-Petrignacola Formation (APF; Northern Italy). Methods for obtaining the dataset include optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and electron probe microanalysis. The APF volcanic rocks are basalts, basaltic andesites, andesites, dacites and rhyolites. Rare gabbroic cumulate nodules complete the dataset. Basalts are porphyritic, with calcic plagioclase (An72–92Ab7–27Or0–1), ferroan enstatite (En59–68Fs29–37Wo3–4) and augite (En38–39Fs18–20Wo41–44) phenocrysts, in a hypocrystalline groundmass made up of bytownite (An71–85Ab14–28Or1), augite (En37–38Fs19Wo43–44), ferroan enstatite (En62–68Fs30–35Wo1–4) and rare pigeonite (En46–50Fs37–42Wo7–17). The basaltic andesites are porphyritic to glomeroporphyritic with phenocrysts of zoned plagioclase (An44–67Ab32–55Or1), orthopyroxene, Mg-rich augite (En38–42Fs15–17Wo43–45), rare pargasite to edenite amphibole (Mg# 69–59) and very rare biotite in a hypocrystalline to holohyaline groundmass. Andesites are highly porphyritic with phenocrysts of plagioclase (An47–79Ab20–52Or0–1), pargasite to magnesio-hornblende (Mg# 72–67), Mg-rich augite (En43–46Fs12–17Wo41–43), subordinate ferroan enstatite (En68–74Fs23–29Wo3–4), biotite (Mg# 53) and Ti-magnetite (Usp29–41). Dacites (massive lavas and ignimbrites) are porphyritic, with phenocrysts and phenoclasts of plagioclase (An33–79Ab20–62Or0–4), calcic amphibole (Ti-pargasite, Mg-hornblende and edenite; Mg# 81–46), biotite (Mg# 67–56), very rare Mg-rich augite (En41–42Fs16–18Wo40–43) and resorbed quartz in hypohyaline to holohyaline groundmass with a dense mat of anhedral quartz, labradorite-andesine (An36–66Ab33–61Or1–4) and rare anorthoclase (An22Ab66Or12). Rhyolitic compositions have been found both as volcanic clasts (massive lava and ignimbrites) with andesine to oligoclase phenoclasts (An25–38Ab61–71Or1–4), quartz, biotite (Mg# 55–53) and Ti-magnetite (Usp18–77), and as interstitial glasses (residual melt drops) in other APF volcanic rocks. The cumulate nodules are olivine-gabbro and amphibole-gabbro/gabbronorite with a mineral paragenesis dominated by plagioclase (An41–73Ab26–57Or1–3), olivine (Fo68–72), Mg-rich augite to ferroan diopside (En41–45Fs12–15Wo42–45; Mg# 79–74), ferroan enstatite (En65–74Fs24–33Wo2–3; Mg# 76–68), magnetite (Usp15–28) and titanian pargasite (Mg# 67–65). The main cumulus phases are plagioclase, olivine and pyroxene, while intercumulus/postcumulus phases are titanian pargasite and magnetite. The dataset can be used to compare petrographic features and chemical compositions of calc-alkaline rocks emplaced in other subduction-related settings. Above all, it can represent a useful contribution in solving the problem linked to the identification of a hidden Early-Oligocene source of the thick volcaniclastic APF succession in the Alpine-Apennine belt geodynamic evolution.

1. Data description
This data article contains petrographic and mineral-glass chemical data of igneous rock clasts from the Aveto-Petrignacola Formation, Northern Italy (Fig. 1) [1,2]. The Aveto-Petrignacola Formation (hereafter APF) is one of the most interesting clastic deposits of Italy, representing one of the few scattered remnants of the volcanic activity that developed during Tertiary time in the Northern Apennine [[2], [3]–4]. Although a recent work has highlighted the geochemical characteristics and the origin of the APF volcanites [4], the Early Oligocene magmatism remains a puzzle in the geodynamic evolution of the Alps-Apennine fold-and-thrust systems [[5], [6], [7]–8]. In this dataset, igneous rock clasts of the APF are characterized by optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and electron probe microanalysis. Petrographic features are shown in microphotographs of Fig. 2a, Fig. 2b, while chemical compositions of mineral phases and glass are reported in Table 1, Table 2 (see Supplementary Tables 1–6) and illustrated in Figs. 3–6.

The APF basalts are porphyritic, locally glomeroporphyritic, often seriate, with PI (Porphyritic Index = area of phenocrysts over the total area of the thin section x 100) up to 25%. The phenocrysts consist of plagioclase, pyroxene and Fe-Ti oxides set in a hypocrystalline, rarely holohyaline, intersertal to pilotaxitic groundmass. The plagioclase phenocrysts are particularly Ca-rich (An72–92Ab7–27Or0–1, form clear, euhedral crystals and are unzoned or slightly normally zoned, and groundmass grains are only slightly less calcic, with bytownitic composition (An71–85Ab14–28Or1). Pyroxene phenocrysts are both ferroan enstatite (En59–68Fs29–37Wo3–4; Mg# 61–70) and magnesium-rich augite (En38–39Fs18–20Wo41–44; Mg# 70–71), whereas the groundmass pyroxenes are augite (En37–38Fs19Wo43–44; Mg# 68–69), ferroan enstatite (En62–69Fs30–35Wo1–4); Mg# 65–70) and rare pigeonite (En46–50Fs37–42Wo7–17; Mg# 55–60). Fe-Ti oxides belong to the rhombohedral phase group (Ilm93–99) and spinel group (Usp35–57).
The APF basaltic andesites are porphyritic to glomeroporphyritic (PI ∼30–40%) and resemble basalts in their mineralogy. Phenocrysts of plagioclase, orthopyroxene, clinopyroxene, opaques and very rare amphibole and biotite are set in a hypocrystalline to holohyaline groundmass. Plagioclase is zoned (An44–67Ab32–55Or1) and exhibits various textures, including clear euhedral grains, subhedral crystals in glomeroporphyritic aggregates, but also occurs as sieved laths with complex zoning patterns. Clinopyroxene is magnesium-rich augite (En38–42Fs15–17Wo43–45; Mg# 72–79), amphibole ranges from pargasite to edenite (Mg# = 59–69) and the main opaque minerals are Ti-magnetite (Usp16–45) and ilmenite (Ilm92–94). Early formed orthopyroxene crystals are often overgrown by an augitic clinopyroxene rim.
The APF andesites are porphyritic (PI ∼20–50%), with phenocrysts of plagioclase, amphibole, clinopyroxene, subordinate orthopyroxene, rare biotite and Fe-Ti oxides. The groundmass is hypocrystalline to holohyaline and consists of fine, anhedral patches of feldspar, two pyroxenes and cryptocrystalline material. Plagioclase phenocrysts are less calcic than those in basalts and basaltic andesites (An47–79Ab20–52Or0–1) and can be clumped, broken, rounded or euhedral, equant to slightly elongated. Very elongated plagioclase laths are found in the groundmass only, where it shows a labradoritic composition (An53–61Ab38–46Or1–2). Variable disequilibrium with host melt(s) is represented by spongy zones in the core, on the rim, or in between. Spongy cores may be either more or less anorthitic than surrounding clear rims. Plagioclase generally exhibits oscillatory and reverse zoning. Clinopyroxene is a magnesium-rich augite (En43–46Fs12–17Wo41–43; Mg# 77–81), with phenocrysts stubby to equant habit, euhedral to subhedral shape, showing only slight zoning. Groundmass augite is more Si-rich and Ti-poor than phenocrysts. Orthopyroxene is ferroan enstatite (En68–74Fs23–29Wo3–4; Mg# 70–77) showing a slight Ca increase in the groundmass crystals. Amphibole ranges in composition from pargasite to magnesio-hornblende (Mg# 67–72) and is rimmed by, or sometimes partly converted to, fine-grained aggregates of opaque minerals. Biotite is rare (Mg# ∼53) and is often partially or completely transformed to chlorite and/or opaque minerals. Fe-Ti oxides are Ti-magnetite (Usp29–41) occurring as microphenocrysts and as inclusions in pyroxenes.
The APF dacites have PI ranging from ∼20 to ∼40% with phenocrysts (phenoclasts in the ignimbrite facies) of plagioclase (An33–79Ab20–62Or0–4), calcic amphibole (titanian pargasite, magnesio-hornblende and edenite, Mg# 46–81), biotite (Mg# 56–67), very rare Mg-rich augite (En41–42Fs16–18Wo40–43; Mg# 71–72) and resorbed quartz; ferroan enstatite (En66–68Fs29–32Wo3–4; Mg# ∼70) occurs as phenocrysts in some trachytic types. Groundmass is hypohyaline to holohyaline, maily consisting of anhedral quartz, labradorite to andesine plagioclase (An36–66Ab33–61Or1–4) and rare anorthoclase (An22Ab66Or12), occasionally with micro-spherulitic textures. Ti-magnetite (Usp10–29) and ilmenitess (Ilm67–95) occur as inclusions in mafic phenocrysts and in the groundmass. Dacitic ignimbrites are characterised by the predominance of vesiculated juvenile material, indicating a pyroclastic flow origin.
The most evolved APF rocks are massive lava and ignimbrites with ∼30–40 vol.% andesine to oligoclase phenocrysts and phenoclasts (An25–38Ab61–72Or1–4), quartz, biotite (Mg# 53–55), and Ti-magnetite (Usp18–77). Ignimbrites generally show eutaxitic textures, with phenoclasts and lithic fragments embedded in a tuffaceous to devitrified groundmass. Pseudo-fluidal patterns are given by iso-oriented biotites and ribbons of opaque microcrystals. Several rhyolitic compositions have been also found as interstitial glasses (residual melt drops) in basalts, basaltic andesites and dacites (Fig. 6).
The APF volcanic clasts contain medium- to coarse-grained holocrystalline nodules, a feature which is common within calc-alkaline associations [9,10]. Most of the APF nodules display a cumulate texture and are classified as olivine-gabbro and amphibole-gabbro/gabbronorite. The mineral paragenesis is dominated by subhedral to euhedral plagioclase (45–70 vol.%, An41–73Ab26–57Or1–3), subhedral to anhedral olivine (2–20 vol.%, Fo68–72), subhedral Mg-rich augite to ferroan diopside clinopyroxene (5–15 vol.%, En41–45Fs12–15Wo42–45; Mg# 74–79), subhedral ferroan enstatite (2–6 vol.%, En65–74Fs24–33Wo2–3; Mg# 68–76), subhedral to euhedral magnetite (5–15 vol.%) and subhedral titanian pargasite (5–15 vol.%, Mg# 65–67). The main cumulus phase is plagioclase together with olivine and minor clinopyroxene in the olivine-gabbro, while clinopyroxene and orthopyroxene are the main cumulus minerals in the amphibole gabbronorite. Intercumulus/postcumulus phases are titanian pargasite and magnetite (Usp15–28). Plagioclase generally forms elongate and euhedral laths up to 5 mm in length, olivine is typically resorbed and surrounded by symplectite coronas of pyroxene and magnetite. The other mafic phases are present as smaller (∼0.5–1 mm large), anhedral to subhedral crystals. Pyroxene crystals often show reaction rims with amphibole, and apatite is the main accessory phase.
2. Experimental design, materials, and methods
2.1. Study area description
The Early Oligocene APF crops out discontinuously for ∼200 km2 along the northern Apennine belt (Fig. 1) and consists of a volcano-sedimentary sequence, whose thickness varies from ∼150 m in the Parma and Secchia Valleys to ∼1500 m in the Aveto Valley [1,2]. Lithic fragments of volcanic origin are dominant (65–80 vol.%), whereas other lithologies (plutonic, metamorphic and sedimentary rocks) are subordinate and essentially derived from the erosion of a basement and a sedimentary cover [2]. A large number of volcanic samples (∼300) were collected from three key stratigraphic sections (Val d'Aveto, Petrignacola and Campastrino, Fig. 1) for detailed thin section petrographic analysis. From these, a representative set of sixty-five fresh and slightly altered samples was investigated for whole-rock geochemistry [4], while only very fresh igneous rocks (fifty-nine samples) was analysed (and data reported here) for petrography and mineral-glass chemical composition.
2.2. Optical microscopy
Thin section analyses for the modal mineralogy and petrography were performed using a polarizing light optical microscope Nikon Optiphot2-Pol, equipped with AxioScope Digital Camera.
2.3. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM)
In order to verify the semi-quantitative elemental composition and to be sure of acquiring data on unaltered samples, the APF rocks were examined by an Environmental Scanning Electron Microscope (ESEM) FEI Quanta 200 FEG, equipped with an energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDS) for micro-chemical analyses, at the University of Urbino Carlo Bo, Italy. Operating conditions were 30 kV accelerating voltage, 10 mm working distance, 0˚ tilt angle, and variable beam diameter. The ESEM was utilized in low vacuum mode, with a specimen chamber pressure set from 0.8 to 0.9 mbar. The electron beam was defocused, which is associated with a shortened accumulation time (from 100 s down to 10 s) and minimizes volatile migration and loss. The standards used were natural minerals and synthetic phases.
2.4. Electron microprobe (EMP)
After polishing and metallization, sixty-five thin sections were analyzed for mineral and glass chemical composition with a Cameca SX50 electron microprobe at the University of Rome La Sapienza (IGAG laboratory, CNR) and a Cameca Camebax 799 electron microprobe at the Istituto di Geoscienze e Georisorse, CNR, Padua, Italy. The operating conditions are 15 kV and 15 nA using full WDS, with a beam size ranging from ∼2 μm (for opaque minerals) to ∼5 μm (for feldspars, pyroxenes, amphibole and biotite) and ∼10 μm for glass analyses. Errors are ± 2% for major and ± 5% for minor elements. Standards comprise a series of pure elements, simple oxides or simple silicate compositions.
Recalculations of EMP chemical data were performed as follow: for pyroxenes, structural formulae, classification parameters and end-member components were calculated using the software PYROX [11] following the IMA rules [12]; for amphiboles, structural formulae and classification were calculated using the software NEWAMPHCAL [13] following the IMA rules [14]; for micas, structural formulae and classification were calculated using the software MICA+ [15]; for Fe-Ti oxides, structural formulae and ilmenite molecular fractions were calculated using the software ILMAT [16].
