在压力为1.0GPa、温度为400~1 073K条件下,用交流阻抗谱法研究了采自山东泰山的黑云斜长片麻岩平行及垂直面理方向的电导率。在实验温度范围内,黑云斜长片麻岩实验样品电导率的对数值为-6.0~0.5S/m,满足Arrhenius方程。电导率在平行面理方向比垂直面理方向高出约1个数量级。平行面理方向样品电导率分别在第3轮升、降温过程中的881~1 040K之间出现1个明显的电导率突变过程,这可能与黑云母的脱水有关。在低温段,垂直及平行面理方向样品的活化焓分别为0.43和0.49eV,在高温段则分别为3.40和1.53eV。将该实验电导率结果与华东地区大地电磁结果进行对比发现,在中下地壳范围内,该实验结果部分位于大地电磁结果范围内,说明黑云斜长片麻岩可能是组成这一地区中下地壳的候选岩石之一。     

高温高压下麻粒岩电导率研究

麻粒岩是下地壳的重要组成物质,模拟其在下地壳温压条件下的电导率对于认识下地壳的电导率分布具有十分重要的意义.本文用交流法在1 GPa下,373~1002 K范围内研究了麻粒岩样品的复阻抗,并且对测量结果进行了阻抗谱分析.研究结果表明,复阻抗对频率具有依赖性,且随温度的升高,复阻抗的实部、虚部均变小.在实验给出的温度范围内,电导率结果符合Arrhenius关系式.当温度在373~663 K范围内时,实验所获得的激化焓为0.31 eV,表明样品的电导率由低能带杂质离子所控制;当温度在673~1002 K范围内时,激化焓为0.67 eV,此时可能为小极化子导电.将所得电导率结果与西南峨边-马边地区以及华北应县―商河地区的大地电磁结果进行了对比,发现在所模拟的下地壳温压范围内,实验室测得的电导率位于野外MT数据范围内.     

青藏高原南部花岗岩电导率研究及地球物理应用

青藏高原地壳不同区域电导率存在着较大的差异,而花岗岩是青藏高原地壳的主要组成岩石,通过高温高压下研究花岗岩的电导率对于认识青藏高原电性结构的差异具有重要的意义.本研究在1.0GPa压力下,通过实验测量了西藏亚东地区白云母花岗岩577~996K温度范围内以及拉萨地区黑云母花岗岩587~1382K温度范围内的电导率,结果发现含白云母花岗岩低温(577~919K)下的活化焓为0.92eV,高温(919~996K)下的活化焓为2.16eV;而黑云母花岗岩在低温(587~990K)下的活化焓为0.48eV,在高温(990~1382K)下的活化焓为2.06eV.两种花岗岩不同温度段活化焓的变化可能与花岗岩中的白云母和黑云母脱水有关.将花岗岩样品实测电导率与采样点附近的野外观测结果相比较,发现二者在电导率数值及变化趋势上比较接近,预示着这两个地区上地壳导电性可能与花岗岩关系密切.通过有效介质模型及HS边界模型计算了白云母花岗岩和黑云母花岗岩混合模型的电导率,并与青藏高原南部地壳的电导率进行了比较,结果显示大地电磁电导率结果大部分位于岩石混合模型电导率结果范围内,青藏高原南部地壳电性结构特征能用花岗岩来解释,其底部大范围的高导现象可能与花岗岩中含水矿物的脱水有关.

运用Brey等人和Bertrand等人矿物温压计, 计算了甘肃西秦岭新生代钾霞橄黄长岩中石榴石二辉橄榄岩和石榴石二辉岩包体的平衡温压条件. 计算结果表明, 石榴石二辉橄榄岩和石榴石二辉岩的稳定温度、压力范围分别为1172~1266℃, 2.9~3.6 GPa和1169 ~1248℃, 2.8~3.2 GPa. 两类包体稳定的压力范围均达到或超出尖晶石相橄榄岩稳定的压力条件(2.0~3.0 GPa), 进入石榴石相橄榄岩的稳定区. 包体的平衡温度达到或超过大洋地温线, 并与实验确定的造山作用后岩石圈伸展条件下钾霞橄黄长岩浆的起源温度一致. 因此, 西秦岭新生代地幔的热状态具有发生钾霞橄黄长岩岩浆作用的条件. 包体的岩石矿物学研究及温压计算显示, 石榴石二辉岩与石榴石二辉橄榄岩同为本区地幔的组成, 因此都可能成为钾霞橄黄长岩的源区岩石.     

斜长石、辉石混合模型的电导率有限元数值计算研究

以岩石实验中矿物的几何形态及空间分布为建模依据,以实验条件及单矿物电导率的测量结果为约束条件,用有限元数值方法模拟了不同微观结构的斜长石、辉石混合物在施加电压后电势及电流的分布情况,并计算了混合模型在不同温度条件下的电导率.研究结果显示,数值模型网格数及矿物颗粒数的选取对电导率计算结果的精度有较大影响,在体导电情况下,模型电导率因矿物比例含量和排列结构而异.当斜长石及辉石随机分布时,随着辉石含量的增加,混合模型电导率在不同温度下均有所增加,且温度越高,增加幅度越大,电导率的有限元模拟计算结果接近于有效介质渗透理论模型,且位于并、串联模型之间以及HS模型的上、下边界范围内;在斜长石及辉石含量一定的情况下,各矿物的排列分布对电导率计算结果也有一定的影响,当矿物颗粒大小接近且分布均匀时,模型中电势沿电流传导方向变化较为均匀,模拟计算得出的电导率相对较高,当矿物颗粒大小差别较大及分布不均匀时,电势分布受到一定的扰动,电导率计算结果也较低.将混合模型电导率有限元计算结果与辉长岩、辉绿岩及玄武岩实验测量结果进行比较,显示这3种岩石样品电导率与温度变化关系的斜率均与混合模型计算结果的斜率相接近,表明这些岩石在所选温度段导电机制与斜长石、辉石混合模型相似,用斜长石、辉石混合模型的电导率研究玄武岩、辉长岩及辉绿岩的导电性具有适用性.将混合模型有限元计算结果与玄武岩、辉长岩、辉绿岩覆盖区地壳大地电磁实测结果对比,发现大地电磁电导率结果位于混合模型计算结果范围内,用斜长石、辉石混合模型模拟玄武岩、辉长岩等岩石地壳具有一定的可行性.     

Laboratory Electrical Conductivity Measurement of Mantle Minerals

Electrical conductivity structures of the Earth’s mantle estimated from the magnetotelluric and geomagnetic deep sounding methods generally show increase of conductivity from 10⁻⁴–10⁻² to 10⁰ S/m with increasing depth to the top of the lower mantle. Although conductivity does not vary significantly in the lower mantle, the possible existence of a highly conductive layer has been proposed at the base of the lower mantle from geophysical modeling. The electrical properties of mantle rocks are controlled by thermodynamic parameters such as pressure, temperature and chemistry of the main constituent minerals. Laboratory electrical conductivity measurements of mantle minerals have been conducted under high pressure and high temperature conditions using solid medium high-pressure apparatus. To distinguish several charge transport mechanisms in mantle minerals, it is necessary to measure the electrical conductivity in a wider temperature range. Although the correspondence of data has not been yet established between each laboratory, an outline tendency of electrical conductivity of the mantle minerals is almost the same. Most of mineral phases forming the Earth’s mantle exhibit semiconductive behavior. Dominant conduction mechanism is small polaron conduction (electron hole hopping between ferrous and ferric iron), if these minerals contain iron. The phase transition olivine to high-pressure phases enhances the conductivity due to structural changes. As a result, electrical conductivity increases in order of olivine, wadsleyite and ringwoodite along the adiabat geotherm. The phase transition to post-spinel at the 660 km discontinuity further can enhance the conductivity. In the lower mantle, the conductivity once might decrease in the middle of the lower mantle due to the iron spin transition and then abruptly increase at the condition of the D″ layer. The impurities in the mantle minerals strongly control the formation, number and mobility of charge carriers. Hydrogen in nominally anhydrous minerals such as olivine and high-pressure polymorphs can enhance the conductivity by the proton conduction. However, proton conduction has lower activation enthalpy compared with small polaron conduction, a contribution of proton conduction becomes smaller at high temperatures, corresponding to the mantle condition. Rather high iron content in mantle minerals largely enhances the conductivity of the mantle. This review focuses on a compilation of fairly new advances in experimental laboratory work together with their explanation.     

Water distribution across the mantle transition zone and its implications for global material circulation

Various methods for inferring the water distribution in Earth's mantle are reviewed including geochemical and geophysical methods. The geochemical approach using the water contents of basalts shows that the water content in the source regions of ocean island basalt is generally larger than that of the source region of mid-ocean ridge basalt, but the location of the source regions of ocean island basalts is poorly constrained. Geophysical approaches have potential of providing constraints on the spatial distribution of water but their usefulness depends critically on the sensitivity of geophysical observations to water content relative to other factors, in addition to the resolution of geophysical observations. Existing experimental data on the influence of water on seismologically observable properties and on electrical conductivity are reviewed. Frequently used seismological observations such as the anomalies in seismic wave velocities and of the topography on the mantle discontinuities are only weakly sensitive to water content but more sensitive to other factors such as the major element chemistry and temperature for a typical range of water contents. In contrast, electrical conductivity is highly sensitive to water content and only modestly sensitive to other factors such as temperature, oxygen fugacity and major element chemistry. Models of electrical conductivity–depth profiles are constructed where the influence of hydrogen and iron partitioning among coexisting minerals and of the depth variation in oxygen fugacity are incorporated. It is shown (i) that the electrical conductivity varies more than two orders of magnitude for a plausible range of water content in the mantle (~ 10 ppm wt to ~ 1 wt.%) and (ii) that if water content is constant with depth, there will be a drop in electrical conductivity at ~ 410-km. Although the resolution is not as high as seismological observations, geophysically inferred electrical conductivity distributions generally show higher conductivity in the mantle transition zone than the upper mantle, suggesting that the water content in the transition zone is higher than that in the upper mantle with some lateral variations. Implications of inferred water distribution are discussed including the possible partial melting near 410-km and its role in global water circulation.

Electrical conductivities of pyrolitic mantle and MORB materials up to the lowermost mantle conditions

The electrical conductivities of natural pyrolitic mantle and MORB materials were measured at high pressure and temperature covering the entire lower mantle conditions up to 133 GPa and 2650 K. In contrast to the previous laboratory-based models, our data demonstrate that the conductivity of pyrolite does not increase monotonically but varies dramatically with depth in the lower mantle; it drops due to high-spin to low-spin transition of iron in both perovskite and ferropericlase in the mid-lower mantle and increases sharply across the perovskite to post-perovskite phase transition at the D″ layer. We also found that the MORB exhibits much higher conductivity than pyrolite. The depth–conductivity profile measured for pyrolite does not match the geomagnetic field data below about 1500-km depth, possibly suggesting the existence of large quantities of subducted MORB crust in the deep lower mantle. The observations of geomagnetic jerks suggest that the electrical conductivity may be laterally heterogeneous in the lowermost mantle with high anomaly underneath Africa and the Pacific, the same regions as large low shear-wave velocity provinces. Such conductivity and shear-wave speed anomalies are also possibly caused by the deep subduction and accumulation of dense MORB crust above the core–mantle boundary.

含碳结构对龙门山断层带电导率影响的实验探索

碳是影响岩石电导率大小的一个重要因素,可能是造成龙门山断层带电导率异常的重要原因之一.为了研究不同的碳含量、矿物颗粒粒径与碳晶体结构对断层带电导率的影响,在干燥、常温、0.2~300 MPa的压力条件下实验研究了人工模拟断层泥样品(石英粉末与含碳粉末混合的样品,简称模拟样品)和采自映秀-北川断层八角庙剖面的天然断层岩样品(简称天然样品)的电导率.实验结果显示,当模拟样品中的含碳粉末连通时,电导率与碳体积率的关系符合逾渗理论模型;而含碳粉末未连通时,电导率随总孔隙度降低而指数性升高.同时模拟样品的电导率也随石英颗粒粒径的变化而发生改变.相比于模拟样品中的含碳粉末主要分布于石英颗粒支撑的孔隙中,天然样品中的碳则主要以碳膜的形式赋存在颗粒边缘,导致碳体积率相同的条件下,模拟样品的电导率小于天然样品.此外,天然样品的电导率(9×10~(-4)S·m~(-1))也要小于野外大地电磁探测的结果(0.03~0.1 S·m~(-1)).在今后的实验中还需要考虑在动态摩擦条件下对含有完整含碳结构的天然样品进行电导率的实验研究.
