南召县老庄透辉石–透闪石矿是河南省唯一的透辉石–透闪石矿床。矿区位于区域性栾川–明港大断裂的北侧，大地构造位置处于华北陆块南缘。矿区有2个透辉石–透闪石矿体，呈似层状赋存于青白口系栾川群南泥湖组上段中，矿体形态简单。围岩蚀变为透闪石化和透辉石化，次为钾长石化和金云母化等。矿石自然类型主要为金云母透辉石透闪石矽卡岩型、金云母透闪石透辉石矽卡岩型和金云母透闪石矽卡岩型。矿物成分主要为透闪石和透辉石，次为钾长石和金云母，方解石少量。矿石化学成分主要为SiO₂、CaO、MgO和Al₂O₃，其次是FeO、K₂O、Na₂O和CO₂等。透闪石+透辉石(Tl+Di)品位较高、较稳定，矿床平均品位(Tl+Di)为68.25%。透辉石–透闪石原矿代替硅灰石用于生产釉面砖。初步试验表明，制品性能稳定，节能效果明显。矿床属矽卡岩型矿床，成矿时代为早白垩世。矿床形成受早白垩世竹园石英正长斑岩体与南泥湖组上段中的白云石大理岩及层间破碎带的多重控制。矽卡岩期为主成矿期，干矽卡岩阶段形成...     

浙江漓渚矽卡岩型铁矿床的矿物学特征与成因

浙江漓渚铁矿床系钦杭成矿带东段一典型矽卡岩型矿床,矿体呈透镜状、似层状、不规则状等,产于广山复式花岗岩体外接触带的南华系、震旦系、寒武系和奥陶系层间的矽卡岩中。矿区发育透辉石、石榴子石、铁浅闪石、金云母、绿泥石、榍石等矽卡岩矿物,金属矿物主要包括磁铁矿、黄铁矿、方铅矿、闪锌矿、辉钼矿等。作者利用电子探针技术对漓渚铁矿床中的矽卡岩矿物进行了系统分析,结果表明:漓渚铁矿床矽卡岩演化经历了矽卡岩期和热液蚀变期,其中,矽卡岩期包括辉石-石榴子石阶段、磁铁矿阶段和角闪石-金云母阶段;热液蚀变期包括石英-硫化物阶段和石英-碳酸盐阶段。辉石以透辉石为主,有向钙铁辉石演化的趋势,即Mg+2→Fe+2演化;石榴子石由钙铝榴石向钙铁榴石转变,显示Al+3→Fe+3演化,这些矿物学特征反映了矽卡岩早期的成矿流体中Fe逐渐增加,且氧逸度f(O2)逐渐升高。铁浅闪石具有富Na、K的特征,且铁浅闪石、金云母和榍石等富F以及矽卡岩萤石化现象,反映成矿流体呈碱性、具有富F的特征,有利于Fe的迁移、富集、成矿。漓渚铁矿床的形成与区内广山-柵溪岩体的岩浆活动有关,Fe可能来源于多期岩浆热液。     

小寺沟斑岩钼铜矿床流体包裹体研究

小寺沟斑岩钼铜矿床赋存于小寺沟上杖子岩体北东接触带内.该岩体具有侧向分带,与矿化有关的是黑云母花岗斑岩和花岗闪长斑岩.在北东接触带内,从岩体向围岩(雾迷山组白云岩)方向,热液蚀变可分为:钾长石-(黑云母)蚀变带;石英-绢云母蚀变带;粘土化带和蛇纹石蚀变带.钼矿主要产在石英-绢云母化带,铜矿主要产在蛇纹石蚀变带内.在蚀变矿化地段生成的大量流体包裹体,是研究热液性质、成矿条件的证据.通过对与蚀变、矿化有成因联系的各种矿脉中流体包裹体的研究,可以阐明成矿热液的变化特征.     

短波红外光谱技术在矽卡岩型矿床中的应用——以鄂东南铜绿山铜铁金矿床为例

铜绿山铜铁金矿床是长江中下游铜铁多金属成矿带最重要的矽卡岩型矿床之一,矿床的形成与铜绿山石英闪长岩株体密切相关,矿体主要沿北北东向断裂产于石英闪长岩与大理岩/白云质大理岩的接触带,形成钙-镁复合型矽卡岩铜多金属矿化。围岩蚀变由致矿岩体到接触-蚀变矿化中心为:绢云母-绿泥石-钾化带、高岭石-绿泥石-弱矽卡岩化带、皂石-绿泥石-强矽卡岩化带。蚀变矿化期次可分为岩浆-热液期和表生期,其中,岩浆-热液期可分为矽卡岩阶段、退化蚀变阶段、氧化物阶段、硫化物阶段和碳酸盐阶段。绿泥石是钻孔岩芯中出现最多且分布最为广泛的蚀变矿物之一。经短波红外光谱(SWIR)研究发现,从蚀变矿化中心到外围,绿泥石出现由铁绿泥石/铁镁绿泥石逐渐转变为镁绿泥石,且绿泥石Fe-OH特征吸收峰位值(Pos2250)显示出从高值变为低值的趋势。结合其他蚀变矿物的空间分布特征,文章提出绿泥石的高Fe-OH特征吸收峰位值(Pos22502253 nm)与金云母、蛇纹石、绿帘石、皂石和高岭石的大量出现,对指示铜绿山矽卡岩型矿床的矿化中心具有一定的作用。     

青海双朋西金铜矿床成矿模式研究

双朋西金铜矿床位于西秦岭同仁-泽库成矿带,矿体呈透镜状、似层状产于印支期花岗闪长岩与石炭—二叠纪甘家组碳酸盐岩的外接触带矽卡岩中,是典型的矽卡岩型金铜矿床。矿石金属矿物以磁黄铁矿、黄铁矿、黄铜矿和褐铁矿为主;脉石矿物以石英、方解石、透闪石和透辉石为主。成矿作用经历了矽卡岩期、石英-硫化物期和表生作用期。稳定同位素研究表明:δD为-56‰～-49‰,δ18O为+9.2‰～+9.4‰,成矿流体为岩浆水,δ34S为+5.1‰～+6.6‰,显示S主要来源于深部岩浆。δ13C为-8.9‰～-8.4‰,代表δ13C主要来源于深部岩浆。依据矿床地质特征,结合同位素地球化学特征,初步建立了双朋西矽卡岩型金铜矿成矿模式,对该地区找矿评价工作具有一定的借鉴意义。

四川道孚县佐莫那协铁矿床地质特征及控矿因素

佐莫纳协铁矿产于炉霍-道孚构造带葛卡花岗闪长岩与结晶灰岩接触带。矿区出露3条矽卡岩带和3个铁矿体,矿体均赋存于花岗闪长岩体与结晶灰岩接触交代形成的矽卡岩带中,矿体形态、产状的变化与矽卡岩体具有一致性。研究认为碳酸盐岩地层、花岗闪长岩的侵入、北西向鲜水河断层的多次活动及其后期走滑剪切作用形成的北东向断层是区内矽卡岩型铁矿形成的重要控制因素。根据成矿条件分析及磁异常显示,矿区深部及外围尚有矽卡型铁矿找矿潜力。     

安徽铜陵冬瓜山大型铜矿:海底喷流-沉积与矽卡岩化叠加复合成矿过程

冬瓜山铜矿是长江中下游成矿带铜陵矿集区内的一个大型铜矿。该矿床被惯称为矽卡岩型矿床,但具明显的层控特征。主矿体呈层状、似层状,赋存于上石炭统碳酸盐建造与下伏上泥盆统砂岩建造的接触带附近,主要由一系列层控块状含铜硫化物透镜体、含铜矽卡岩透镜体、磁铁矿矿囊以及层状含铜黄铁矿-蛇纹石矿席组成。主矿体的底部为根植于上泥盆统砂岩建造内的层控脉状-网脉状矿,下部为层状含铜黄铁矿+蛇纹石矿席,主体为块状含铜硫化物透镜体与上覆硬石膏层构成的三个硫化物-硫酸盐韵律单元。该双层结构特征总体类似于VMS和SEDEX型矿床,但矿石结构构造表明,这些硫化物-硫酸盐沉积均不同程度地遭受了后期热液-变质作用叠加改造。层控含铜矽卡岩通常发育于块状含铜硫化物透镜体之上,小型磁铁矿矿体或矿囊通常围绕陡倾的闪长岩株零星分布。这两类矿化均与燕山期岩浆活动(约137Ma)和石英二长闪长岩株侵位密切相关。矿区可见两种蚀变作用:石英-绢云母蚀变与矽卡岩蚀变。前者在下盘砂岩中形成似整合蚀变带,包裹层控网脉状矿,其成因可解释为晚石炭世热液流体在海底之下砂岩透水层内发生侧向迁移、弥散排泄及金属卸载;后者由燕山期石英二长闪长岩侵位引起,形成两类矽卡岩,其中,镁质...     

西藏嘎拉勒夕卡岩型金（铜）矿床地球化学特征与锆石的LA-ICP-MS定年及意义

西藏嘎拉勒金铜矿床40Ar/39Ar同位素年龄及地质意义

西藏嘎拉勒矽卡岩型金(铜)矿床为近几年由西藏自治区第二地质大队发现的具有一定规模和潜力的矿床。本文以嘎拉勒金铜矿床中矽卡岩中金云母为研究对象,通过40Ar/39Ar同位素定年的方法,精确厘定了嘎拉勒矽卡岩型金铜矿床的成矿时代。金云母结晶在石榴子石和透辉石、黄铁矿和黄铜矿形成之间,并与石榴子石、针状透闪石和放射状阳起石密切共生。测试结果表明,嘎拉勒矿区金云母的40Ar/39Ar坪年龄为85.41±0.64 Ma,与相应的等时线年龄85.9±2.4 Ma一致,推测其成矿作用可能与拉萨地块和羌塘地块碰撞后在拉萨地块北侧发生岩石圈拆沉引起地幔物质上涌而诱发的岩浆活动有关。     

鄂东鸡冠嘴矿区成矿岩体锆石SHRIMP U-Pb定年及其意义

鄂东鸡冠嘴铜金(铁)矿床位于阳新岩体西北端,与铜绿山铜金矿床毗邻。矿区成矿岩体主要岩性为石英正长闪长玢岩、石英闪长岩、闪长岩和安山玢岩。其中石英正长闪长玢岩与成矿关系密切。在前人矿床地质特征研究基础上,笔者对成矿岩体进行了锆石SHRIMP U-Pb定年,获得石英正长闪长玢岩和闪长岩的年龄为146±2Ma(95%可信度,MSWD=1.3)和132±4Ma(95%可信度,MSWD=3)。测定结果表明,区内石英正长闪长玢岩和闪长岩分属燕山早期和燕山晚期岩浆活动的产物。鉴于矿体在空间上主要赋存于岩体内外接触带及层间破碎带中,推测成矿作用应略晚于石英正长闪长玢岩(146±2Ma)而早于闪长岩侵位的时间(132±4Ma),这与前人获得长江中下游铜铁金成矿带代表性矿床的辉钼矿Re-Os模式年龄分布在134.7～143Ma的研究结果一致。     

Lithogeochemical,Re–Os and U–Pb Geochronological,Hf–Lu and S–Pb Isotope Data of the Ga'erqiong‐Galale Cu–Au Ore‐Concentrated Area: Evidence for the Late Cretaceous Magmatism and Metallogenic Event in the Bangong‐Nujiang Suture Zone,Northwestern Tibet,China

The Ga'erqiong‐Galale skarn–porphyry copper–gold ore‐concentrated area is located in the western part of the Bangong‐Nujiang suture zone north of the Lhasa Terrane. This paper conducted a systematic study on the magmatism and metallogenic effect in the ore‐concentrated area using techniques of isotopic geochronology, isotopic geochemistry and lithogeochemistry. According to the results, the crystallization age of quartz diorite (ore‐forming mother rock) in the Ga'erqiong deposit is 87.1 ± 0.4 Ma, which is later than the age of granodiorite (ore‐forming mother rock) in the Galale deposit (88.1 ± 1.0 Ma). The crystallization age of granite porphyry (GE granite porphyry) in the Ga'erqiong deposit is 83.2 ± 0.7 Ma, which is later than the age of granite porphyry (GL granite porphyry) in the Galale deposit (84.7 ± 0.8 Ma).The quartz diorite, granodiorite, GE granite porphyry and GL granite porphyry both main shows positive ε_Hf(t) values, suggesting that the magmatic source of the main intrusions in the ore‐concentrated area has the characteristics of mantle source region. The Re–Os isochron age of molybdenite in the Ga'erqiong district is 86.9 ± 0.5 Ma, which is later than the mineralization age of the Galale district (88.6 ± 0.6 Ma). The main intrusive rocks in the ore‐concentrated area have similar lithogeochemical characteristics, for they both show the relative enrichment in large‐ion lithophile elements(LILE: Rb, Ba, K, etc.), more mobile highly incompatible lithophile elements(HILE: U, Th) and relatively depleted in high field strength elements (HFSE: Nb, Ta, Zr, Hf, etc.), and show the characteristics of magmatic arc. The studies on the metal sulfides' S and Pb isotopes and Re content of molybdenite indicate that the metallogenic materials of the deposits in the ore‐concentrated area mainly come from the mantle source with minor crustal source contamination. Based on the regional tectonic evolution process, this paper points out that the Ga'erqiong‐Galale copper–gold ore‐concentrated area is the typical product of the Late Cretaceous magmatism and metallogenic event in the collision stage of the Bangong‐Nujiang suture zone.     

Zircon U–Pb and phlogopite <Superscript>40</Superscript>Ar–<Superscript>39</Superscript>Ar age of the Chengchao and Jinshandian skarn Fe deposits,southeast Hubei Province,Middle–Lower Yangtze River Valley metallogenic belt,China

The Chengchao and Jinshandian deposits in the southeast Hubei Province are the two largest skarn Fe deposits in the Middle–Lower Yangtze River Valley metallogenic belt (MLYRVMB), China. They are characterized by NW-striking orebodies that are developed along the contacts between the Late Mesozoic granitoid and Triassic carbonate and clastic rocks. New sensitive high-resolution ion microprobe and laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry zircon U–Pb dating of the mineralization-related quartz diorite and granite at Chengchao yield ages of 129 ± 2 and 127 ± 2 Ma, respectively, and those at Jinshandian of 127 ± 2 and 133 ± 1 Ma, respectively. These results are interpreted as the crystallization age of these intrusions. Hydrothermal phlogopite samples from the skarn ores at Chengchao and Jinshandian have the plateau ⁴⁰Ar–³⁹Ar ages of 132.6 ± 1.4 and 131.6 ± 1.2 Ma, respectively. These results confirm that both intrusions and associated skarn Fe mineralization were formed contemporaneously in the middle Early Cretaceous time. New zircon U–Pb and phlogopite ⁴⁰Ar–³⁹Ar ages in this study, when combined with available precise geochronological data, demonstrate that there were two discontinuous igneous events, corresponding to two episodes of skarn Fe-bearing mineralization in the southeast Hubei Province: (1) 140–136 Ma diorites and quartz diorites and 141–137 Ma skarn Cu–Fe or Fe–Cu deposits and (2) 133–127 Ma quartz diorites and granites and 133–132 Ma skarn Fe deposits. This scenario is similar to that proposed for the entire MLYRVMB. The intrusions related to skarn Fe deposits show obviously petrological and geochemical differences from those related to skarn Cu–Fe or Fe–Cu deposits. The former are quartz diorite and diorite in petrology and have similar adakitic geochemical signatures and in equilibrium with a garnet-rich residue, whereas the latter are petrologically granite and quartz diorite that are distinguishable from adakitic rocks and in equilibrium with a plagioclase residue. These features indicated that two episodes of magmatism and the formation of skarn Fe-bearing deposits in the southeast Hubei Province, MLYRVMB, might be associated lithosphere thinning induced by asthenosphere upwelling during the Late Mesozoic.     

Evaluation of the Crystallization Conditions for the Calcalkaline Russian Peak Intrusive Complex, Klamath Mountains, Northern California

The mid-Jurassic calcalkaline Russian Peak intrusive complex,located in the Klamath Mountains of northern California, consistsof an elliptical peridotite-to-quartz diorite suite intrudedby two plutons of granodiorite. Several techniques were usedto decipher the crystallization conditions for ultramafic rocks,quartz diorite, and granodiorite, including comparison of parageneseswith crystallization experiments, application of geothermometersand barometers, and evaluation of phase equilibria. Contactmetamorphic assemblages, hornblende barometry, and amphibolesubstitution schemes indicate that pressures of intrusion were{small tilde}3 kbar. Plagioclase and pyroxene thermometry indicateintrusion temperatures of {small tilde}1000C for quartz dioriteand 900C for granodiorite. Phase equilibrium analysis for thereaction phlogopite+quartz=K-feldspar+enstatite+H₂O, coupledwith an estimate of the water-saturated quartz diorite solidus,suggests that the solidus of two-pyroxene quartz diorite wasat {small tilde}780C with a mole fraction of water of {smalltilde}0•55. The composition of granodiorite is very similarto that used in several crystallization experiments and indicatesa solidus of 70025C. Estimates of oxygen fugacity, obtainedfrom equilibrium relations of olivine, orthopyroxene, and spinelin ultramafic rocks, magnetite and ilmenite in quartz diorite,and magnetite, K-feldspar, and biotite in quartz diorite andgranodiorite are 2•1–2•5 and 1•0–1•3log units above the quartz-fayalite-magnetite (QFM) buffer forgranodiorite and quartz diorite at their respective solidustemperatures; and 1•0–4•0 log units above QFMfor ultramafic rocks and quartz diorite at subsolidus temperatures.Thus, the quartz diorite magma was hotter, drier, and slightlyreduced relative to the grandiorite magma, differences thatset important constraints on the genesis of the Russian Peakmagmas. These results also indicate that quartz diorite wasundersaturated with respect to H₂O as it reached its solidus,a condition that is consistent with the absence of deutericalteration in this unit. In contrast, granodiorite shows extensivedeuteric alteration and features pegmatites, quartz pods, andradial dikes as might be expected for H₂O-saturated conditions. Although calcalkaline plutonic complexes present serious difficultiesin estimating the intensive parameters of crystallization, judiciousapplication of appropriate methods may result in the successfulevaluation of the conditions of crystallization of such complexes.     

辽东大东沟金矿岩浆岩LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb年龄及岩石地球化学特征

大东沟金矿位于华北克拉通北缘东段。对矿区内的岩浆岩进行了锆石U-Pb年代学和岩石地球化学研究。用LAICP-MS方法,测得花岗闪长岩和石英闪长岩中锆石207Pb/206Pb年龄加权平均值分别为2147±10Ma和140.8±1.2Ma,花岗闪长岩经历了1874±18Ma的后期热液活动事件。元素地球化学测试结果显示,两者均为高钾钙碱性I型花岗岩类。石英闪长岩稀土元素配分模式为明显的右倾模式,具有弱负Eu异常,而花岗闪长岩为平坦的右倾模式,具有明显的正Eu异常,两者呈现轻稀土相对富集的特征。微量元素均富集Rb、Ba、K等大离子亲石元素。石英闪长岩表现为亏损Nb、Ta、Zr、Hf、Ti等高场强元素,而花岗闪长岩表现为Th、Nb、Ta、Ti等高场强元素亏损。结合区域大地构造背景及相关研究认为,花岗闪长岩形成于大陆弧后盆地的构造背景,主要是由约2.2Ca的岩浆底侵加热导致下地壳基性火成岩部分熔融而成;石英闪长岩形成于伊佐奈岐板块向华北板块斜向俯冲的构造背景,具有壳幔混合的特征,为俯冲带流体交代地幔,使其部分熔融,形成基性岩浆与地壳熔融物质混合而成的产物。     

Petrology,geochemistry and fluid inclusion studies of Cu-Au mineralization in paleoproterozoic Salumber-Ghatol belt,Aravalli Supergroup,Rajasthan

The Salumber-Ghatol belt in Rajasthan, India, situated along southern margin of the Aravalli Craton, hosts a cluster of Cu-Au deposits in calcitic and dolomitic marbles that belong to Debari Group of the Paleo-mesoproterozoic Aravalli Supergroup. The Fe-Mn rich dolomitic marble of the Delwara Formation hosts Cu-Au-Fe-oxide mineralization at Ghagri and associated distal K-Fe-Mg rich altered rocks (cryptocrystalline microcline + magnesioriebeckite + magnetite + phlogopite) and proximal feldspathised carbonate rocks (medium grained albite + microcline + dolomite + magnetite). The calcitic marble of Mukandpura Formation hosts Dugocha Cu-Au deposit with development of distal graphitetourmaline-bearing albitites and proximal albite-microcline-magnetite rocks. Calcite and dolomite carbonates of Bhukia region with development of albite-actinolite-bearing alteration assemblages host the largest of the Cu-Au deposits in this belt. The second generation folds and associated ductile-brittle shear zones of the multiply deformed events constitute conduits for the mineralizing fluids at all locations in this belt.
