华中高压－超高压变质富铝岩石的温压条件研究及其地质意义

华中高压－超高压变质富铝岩石为陆壳岩石经变质而成，其典型的岩石类型为蓝晶石黄玉石英岩。矿物温压计估算其ｐ－Ｔ条件为Ｔ＝７００℃，ｐ＝１．２ＧＰａ；高温高压实验结果表明，蓝晶石＋黄玉组合在Ｔ＝１０００～１２００℃，Ｐ＝３．１～３．７７ＧＰａ范围内可以稳定存在，是高压－超高压变质作用产物。在蓝晶石石英岩中发现柯石英及柯石英假象，区域上其它岩石组合也有高压－超高压变质作用的证据。变质富铝岩石为榴辉岩相变质作用产物，从而证明陆壳岩石可以经历＞２．０ＧＰａ的变质压力条件。     

华中高压变质带中蓝晶石黄玉岩的特征及与白片岩的对比

华中高压变质带中的蓝晶石黄玉岩系指一套富含铝质矿物的岩石,其矿物组合为蓝晶石+钠云母士白云母,蓝晶石+黄玉士石英,蓝晶石+蓝刚玉士硬绿泥石,蓝品石+白云母+石英等.化学成分富铝而贫镁。原岩为一套铝质粘土岩—砂岩.形成的温压条件为P=1.0～2.0GPa,T=650～900℃.其成分与典型的白片岩有所不同。故称为“类白片岩”.白片岩类是地壳物质俯冲到地幔深度的指示剂,从而证明华中高压变质带是古陆内板块裂开、碰撞、俯冲的产物。     

华中陆壳高压变质带类白片岩的岩石矿物特征

华中陆壳高_压变质带以蓝片岩-榴辉岩-类白片岩三位一体为特征。类白片岩为一套富含高铝质矿物的岩石类型,分布在中元古界。主要岩石类型为刚玉蓝晶石岩、蓝晶石钠云母片岩,蓝晶石自云石英片岩和蓝晶石黄玉石英岩。变质矿物有蓝晶石、蓝刚玉、黄玉。钠云母、硬绿泥石和白云母等。类白片岩形成的温压条件为P=2000MPa,T=850—900℃,为高压条件下变质的泥质岩石。该类岩石与西德岩石学家Schreyer(1973)命名的典塑白片岩(蓝晶石+滑石)在矿物组合上略有不同,但其地质意义却很一致,都代表高压变质的泥质岩石,可作为地壳物质俯冲到地幔深度的指示剂,故称为类白片岩。     

华中高压—超高压变质富铝岩石的温压条件研究及其地质意义

华中高压－超高压变质富铝岩石为陆壳岩石经变质而成，其典型的岩石类型为蓝晶石黄玉石英石。矿物温压计估算其ｐ－Ｔ条件为Ｔ－７００，ｐ＝１．２ＧＰａ；高温高压实验结果表明，蓝晶石＋黄玉组合在Ｔ＝１０００－１２００℃，ｐ＝３．１－３．７７ＧＰａ范围内可以稳定存在，是高压－超高压变质作用产物。     

超高压变质作用

本文简要概述了近年在西阿尔卑斯、挪威西部、我国中东部及苏联一些地区超高压变质岩石的最新研究成果,指出柯石英及其向石英转变而形成的张裂结构是鉴别这一超高压变质作用的主要标志.指示超高压变质条件的其它矿物及矿物组合的尚有镁十字石、ellenberserite、硬玉十蓝晶石、滑石十蓝晶石和滑石十多硅白云母等,金刚石代表更极端的高压条件.超高压变质作用的边界压力>2.SGPa,温度约700~840C,代表一个近于7℃/km的极低的地热梯度,其退化轨还为压力和温度同时降低.超高压变质岩石严格地产出于陆内造山带,表明它们是在大陆与大陆碰撞过程中由深俯冲作用形成的,其俯冲深度可超过90km,使柯石英得以保存的快速构造抬升可能是连续俯冲一仰冲的结果.     

苏北高压变质带及其与北侧超高压变质带的关系

在苏北超高压变质带以南存在一条与之平行的高压变质带。带内由东南向西北可进一步划分出蓝闪石-黑硬绿泥石带,石榴石-绿帘石带和蓝晶石-黄玉带三个变质亚带。从蓝门石-黑硬绿泥石带到蓝晶石-黄玉带变质温压逐渐升高,其峰期地热梯度为15±3℃/km,属于高压变质相系。北侧超高压变质带的典型矿物组合是石榴石+绿辉石+柯石英+金红石,地热梯度为9±2℃/km。高压变质带峰期变质与北侧超高压带峰期变质的地热梯度明显不同,而与超高压变质体的退变质地热梯度相吻合。结合同位素年代学资料,本文指出本区的高压变质作用与北侧的超高压变质作用不是同时发生,而是与超高压变质体的退变质作用同时发生于中生代的印支期。含柯石英榴辉岩的超高压峰期变质早于印支期,并经两次抬升出露于地表。     

苏鲁地体超高压矿物的三维空间分布

采用激光拉曼技术,配备电子探针和阴极发光测试,确认苏鲁地体大多数花岗质片麻岩,所有类型片麻岩、斜长角闪岩、蓝晶石英岩和大理岩的锆石中均隐藏以柯石英为代表的超高压包体矿物组合。其中花岗质片麻岩典型超高压包体矿物为柯石英±多硅白云母;副片麻岩为柯石英+石榴子石+绿辉石、柯石英±石榴子石+硬玉+多硅白云母+磷灰石、柯石英+多硅白云母±磷灰石;斜长角闪岩为柯石英+石榴子石+绿辉石±金红石;蓝晶石英岩为柯石英+蓝晶石+金红石+磷灰石、柯石英+蓝晶石+多硅白云母+金红石;大理岩为柯石英+透辉石、柯石英+橄榄石。表明苏鲁地体由榴辉岩及其围岩所组成的巨量陆壳物质曾普遍发生深俯冲,并经历了超高压变质作用。锆石的矿物包体分布特征及相应的阴极发光图像研究表明,在同一样品中,锆石的成因特征存在明显差异。有的锆石显示继承性(碎屑)锆石的核(core)、超高压变质的幔(mantle)和退变质的边(rim);有的锆石则具有超高压的核、幔和退变质的边;而有的锆石却记录了深俯冲的核、超高压的幔和退变质的边。标志着苏鲁超高压变质带各类岩石副矿物锆石均具有十分复杂的结晶生长演化历史。因此,在充分研究锆石中矿物包体性质、分布特征以及相应阴极发光图像的基础上,采用SHRIMP离子探针技术,在锆石晶体的不同     

河南大别山区榴辉岩及蓝晶石石英岩中柯石英的发现

团麻断裂以西的河南大别山区榴辉岩及其围岩蓝晶石石英岩中首次发现柯石英。含柯石英榴辉岩的矿物共生组合为石榴石+绿辉石+蓝晶石+多硅白云母+石英(柯石英)+金红石,其形成温压条件为T=610～740℃,P≥2.8 GPa。含柯石英榴辉岩及其围岩同时经历了超高压变质作用,可能由扬子板块向华北板块深俯冲作用形成,俯冲深度可迭90km以上。河南大别山区含柯石英榴辉岩的发现扩大了中国中东部含柯石英榴辉岩带的分布区。     

地壳岩石在地幔深度内的变质作用:变泥质岩石中的高压矿物和矿物组合

变质相的范围,经典的概念是在大陆莫霍面的深度内,其压力在10～12kb,并可延至30kb。即使是明显的地壳来源的岩石,例如,泥质变质岩。根据新近发现的阿尔卑斯和地中海地区的高压变泥质岩和MgO-Al_2O_3-SiO_2-H_2O、K_2O-MgO-Al_2O_3-SiO_2-H_2O系的高压实验研究,提出了一种新的观点:即地质变质作用新领域内特别重要的指示矿物是Mg—Fe纤锰柱石(Carpholite)、富Mg硬绿泥石(Mg—chloritoid)、镁铝榴石、柯石英、多硅白云母和ellenbergrite;主要的矿物组合是滑石+蓝晶石,滑石+硬绿泥石,滑石+镁铁榴石,滑石+多硅白云母,硬玉+石英,和硬玉+蓝晶石。由于在西部阿尔卑斯的Dofa Maira地块惊奇的出现了镁铝榴石—柯石英岩石,这对新概念的形成起了主要作用。它相当于白片岩(滑石—蓝晶石岩石)是极高压的岩石。它反映了陆壳板块的俯冲作用深度至少为90km。这种岩石遭受了蓝片岩相的退化变质作用,蓝闪石交代了镁铝榴石。在大陆与大陆碰撞期间,假如俯冲角度很大,那么陆壳的俯冲深度可以非常深。然而,利用地球动力学的原理仍不能较好的解释这种岩石返回到地表的机制。尤其重要的是早期造山阶段,碰撞带内达到地热平衡之前地壳俯冲的岩石就返回到较浅部位,以及当构造运移期间与冷却有关而发生减压时,非常高压的矿物能保留下来是可能的。如果不是这种情况,偶然上升到陆壳较浅部位,将导致高压岩石麻粒岩相和角闪岩相的矿物重新达到平衡,详细的显微电子探针工作是必要的。它可以探测正常的高级变质岩中高压条件的信息。     

中国大陆科学钻探主孔0～4500米变质岩石锆石中保存的超高压矿物包体

中国大陆科学钻探主孔0-4500米的岩心主要由榴辉岩、斜长角闪岩、副片麻岩、正片麻岩以及少量的超基性岩所组成。岩相学研究结果表明,榴辉岩的围岩普遍经历了强烈角闪岩相退变质作用的改造,峰期超高压变质的矿物组合已完全被后期退变质过程中角闪岩相矿物组合所替代。采用激光拉曼技术,配备电子探针和阴极发光测试,发现主孔224件岩心中有121件(包括榴辉岩、斜长角闪岩、副片麻岩和正片麻岩)样品的锆石中普遍隐藏以柯石英为代表的超高压矿物包体,且不同岩石类型锆石中所保存的超高压矿物包体组合存在明显差异。(含多硅白云母)金红石石英榴辉岩锆石中保存的典型超高压包体矿物组合为柯石英 石榴石、柯石英 石榴石 绿辉石 金红石和柯石英 多硅白云母 磷灰石。黑云绿帘斜长角闪岩锆石中保存的超高压矿物组合为柯石英 石榴石 绿辉石、柯石英 石榴石 多硅白云母和柯石英 绿辉石 金红石,与榴辉岩所保存的超高压矿物组合十分相似,表明该类斜长角闪岩是由超高压榴辉岩在构造折返过程中退变质而成。在副片麻岩类岩石,如石榴绿帘黑云二长片麻岩锆石中,代表性的超高压包体矿物组合为柯石英 多硅白云母和柯石英 石榴石等;而在石榴黑云角闪钠长片麻岩锆石中,则保存柯石英 硬玉 石榴石 磷灰石、柯石英 硬玉 多硅白云母 磷灰石和柯石英 石榴石 磷灰石等超高压矿物包体。在正片麻岩锆石中,标志性的超高压矿物包体为柯石英、柯石英 多硅白云母、柯石英 蓝晶石 磷灰石和柯石英 蓝晶石 榍石等。此外,在南苏鲁东海至临沭一带的地表露头以及一系列卫星孔岩心的锆石中,也普遍发现以柯石英为代表的标志性超高压矿物包体,表明在南苏鲁地区由榴辉岩及其围岩的原岩所组成的巨量陆壳物质(方圆>5000km2,厚度超过4.5km)曾整体发生深俯冲,并经历了超高压变质作用。该项研究对于重塑苏鲁-大别超高压变质带俯冲-折返的动力学模式有着重要的科学意义。     

The terrestrial fauna of the Late Triassic Pant-y-ffynnon Quarry fissures,South Wales,UK and a new species of Clevosaurus (Lepidosauria: Rhynchocephalia)

Pant-y-ffynnon Quarry in South Wales yielded a rich cache of fossils in the early 1950s, including articulated specimens of new species (the small sauropodomorph dinosaur Pantydraco caducus and the crocodylomorph Terrestrisuchus gracilis), but no substantial study of the wider fauna of the Pant-y-ffynnon fissure systems has been published. Here, our overview of existing specimens, a few described but mostly undescribed, as well as freshly processed material, provides a comprehensive picture of the Pant-y-ffynnon palaeo-island of the Late Triassic. This was an island with a relatively impoverished fauna dominated by small clevosaurs (rhynchocephalians), including a new species, Clevosaurus cambrica, described here from a partially articulated specimen and isolated bones. The new species has a dental morphology that is intermediate between the Late Triassic Clevosaurus hudsoni, from Cromhall Quarry to the east, and the younger C. convallis from Pant Quarry to the west, suggesting adaptive radiation of clevosaurs in the palaeo-archipelago. The larger reptiles on the palaeo-island do not exceed 1.5?m in length, including a small carnivorous crocodylomorph, Terrestrisuchus, and a possible example of insular dwarfism in the basal dinosaur Pantydraco.     

Définition d'une limite multicritère ; stratigraphie du passage Campanien–Maastrichtien du site géologique de Tercis (Landes,SW France)Definition of a multi-criteria boundary; stratigraphy of the Campanian–Maastrichtian interval of the geological site at Tercis (Landes,SW France)

Lithostratigraphy, physicochemical stratigraphy, biostratigraphy, and geochronology of the 77–70 Ma old series bracketing the Campanian–Maastrichtian boundary have been investigated by 70 experts. For the first time, direct relationships between macro- and microfossils have been established, as well as direct and indirect relationships between chemo-physical and biostratigraphical tools. A combination of criteria for selecting the boundary level, duration estimates, uncertainties on durations and on the location of biohorizons have been considered; new chronostratigraphic units are proposed. The geological site at Tercis is accepted by the Commission on Stratigraphy as the international reference for the stratigraphy of the studied interval. To cite this article: G.S. Odin, C. R.

The effect of water on accessory phase solubility in subaluminous and peralkaline granitic melts

The solubilities of columbite, tantalite, wolframite, rutile, zircon and hafnon were determined as a function of the water contents in peralkaline and subaluminous granite melts. All experiments were conducted at 1035 °C and 2 kbar and the water contents of the melts ranged from nominally dry to approximately 6 wt.% H₂O. Accessory phase solubilities are not affected by the water content of the peralkaline melt. By contrast, solubilities are affected by the water content of the subaluminous melt, where the solubilities of all the accessory phases examined increase with the water content of the melt, up to 2 wt.% H₂O. At higher water contents, solubilities are nearly constant. It can be concluded that water is not an important control of accessory phase solubility, although the water content will affect diffusivities of components in the melt, thus whether or not accessory phases will be present as restite material. The solubility behaviour in the subaluminous and peralkaline melts supports previous spectroscopic studies, which have observed differences in the coordination of high field strength elements in dry vs. wet subaluminous granitic glasses, but not for peralkaline granitic glasses. Lastly, the fact that wolframite solubility increases with increasing water content in the subaluminous melt suggests that tungsten dissolved as a hexavalent species.     

Late Wuchiapingian (Late Dzhulfian,early Late Permian) limestone olistolites within the Tertiary flysch of Glypia Unit (Mount Parnon,central–eastern Peloponnesus,Greece)

Some olistolites reworked in a Tertiary flysch of Mount Parnon (Peloponnesus, Greece) exhibit a Late Permian assemblage, dominated by Paradunbarula (Shindella) shindensis, Hemigordiopsis cf. luquensis and Colaniella aff. minima. This association corresponds to the Late Wuchiapingian (=Late Dzhulfian), a substage whose algae and foraminifera are generally little known. Contemporaneous limestones crop out in the middle part of the Episkopi Formation in Hydra, but they are rather commonly reworked in Mesozoic and Cainozoic sequences. The palaeobiogeographical affinities shared by the foraminiferal markers of Greece, southeastern Pamir, and southern China, are very strong (up to the specific level), and are congruent with the Pangea B reconstructions.
