西天山乌孙山地区大哈拉军山组火山岩LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb年龄及其构造环境

西天山乌孙山地区大哈拉军山组由玄武岩、安山岩、英安岩、流纹岩及相应的火山碎屑岩组成,安山岩和流纹岩分布最广。LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb定年结果表明,火山活动喷发的安山岩与安山质晶屑凝灰熔岩分别形成于353.9Ma±6.5Ma和356.3Ma±4.4Ma,属于早石炭世早期。通过区域对比,西天山大哈拉军山组的火山岩浆作用显示从伊犁中天山板块南北缘向伊犁盆地内部逐渐变年轻的特点,且火山岩喷发时代差别不大(约40Ma)。岩石地球化学研究表明,火山岩属钙碱性系列,富集轻稀土元素,相对亏损重稀土元素。中性火山岩富集大离子亲石元素(如Cs、Rb、Th、U),而相对亏损高场强元素,具有明显的Nb、Ta、Ti负异常,显示出岛弧火山岩的特征;酸性火山岩相对富集Rb、Th、U、Ta等元素,具有明显的Ba、Sr、P、Eu、Ti等元素的负异常。综合伊犁-中天山板块南缘的构造演化特征,认为大哈拉军山组形成于活动大陆边缘环境,产在板块俯冲-碰撞的最后阶段。     

祁连造山带东段中寒武世深沟组中-基性火山岩锆石U-Pb年龄、地球化学特征及构造环境

拉脊山构造带南东端磨沟地区出露一套变安山岩夹片理化变玄武岩组合,其原岩分别为亚碱性拉斑系列安山岩和玄武岩。研究表明,变安山岩锆石U-Pb年龄为503.1±6.6Ma,形成于中寒武世。玄武岩稀土元素总量为93.40×10~(-6)～135.39×10~(-6),(La/Yb)_N值为2.76～3.64,δEu为0.87～1.00,微量元素蛛网图具有不相容元素富集特征,没有明显的Nb、Ta负异常,与板内火山岩特征相似。安山岩稀土元素总量低于玄武岩,而微量元素蛛网图具有富集大离子亲石元素Cs、Rb、Ba等,亏损高场强元素Nb、Ta、Ti等特征。岩石成因研究表明,玄武岩没有经历显著的地壳混染,为软流圈地幔石榴子石+尖晶石二辉橄榄岩低程度部分熔融的产物,而安山岩为地壳部分熔融的产物。构造环境判别表明,深沟组火山岩形成于大陆裂谷环境,表明祁连地块中部的拉脊山构造带南东端可能没有发育成熟的洋盆系统,随后在南祁连洋早古生代俯冲消减过程中以裂谷型岩石圈碎片的方式构造侵位于中祁连地块南缘。     

西天山乌孙山地区大哈拉军山组火山岩LA—ICP—MS锆石U—Pb年龄及其构造环境

西天山乌孙山地区大哈拉军山组由玄武岩、安山岩、英安岩、流纹岩及相应的火山碎屑岩组成,安山岩和流纹岩分布最广。LA—IcP—Ms锆石U-Pb定年结果表明,火山活动喷发的安山岩与安山质晶屑凝灰熔岩分别形成于353．9Ma_6．5Ma和3563Ma±4．4Ma．属于早石炭世早期。通过区域对比,西天山大哈拉军山组的火山岩浆作用显示从伊犁中天山板块南北缘向伊犁盆地内部逐渐变年轻的特点,且火山岩喷发时代差别不大（约40Ma）。岩石地球化学研究表明,火山岩属钙碱性系列,富集轻稀土元素,相对亏损重稀土元素。中性火山岩富集大离子亲石元素（如Cs、Rb、Th、U）,而相对亏损高场强元素,具有明显的Nb、Ta、Ti负异常,显示出岛弧火山岩的特征;酸性火山岩相对富集Rb、Th、u、Ta等元素,具有明显的Ba、sr、P、Eu、Ti等元素的负异常。综合伊犁一中天山板块南缘的构造演化特征,认为大哈拉军山组形成于活动大陆边缘环境,产在板块俯冲一碰撞的最后阶段。     

南秦岭勉略构造带中堂沟火山岩地球化学特征及其地质意义

通过对分布于勉略构造带中段三岔子西侧中堂沟地区的火山岩进行详实的野外地质剖面调查,发现其为一套绿片岩相浅变质火山岩,岩石组合以变安山岩为主,含有少量的变玄武岩和变英安岩,主体为钙碱性系列。岩石地球化学研究表明3类岩石均具有轻稀土富集型稀土配分曲线,并显示弱的Eu负异常;微量元素方面,岩石普遍富集大离子亲石元素Cs、Rb、Ba,亏损高场强元素Nb、Ta,相对亏损P、Ti,不活动微量元素Zr、Hf、Tb、Y等既无明显的相对亏损也无显著的相对富集。在La-La/Nb、Nb-Nb/Th和La/Yb-Sc/Ni等环境判别图解中,变玄武岩和变安山岩样品点均落在岛弧火山岩范围内,并结合其岩石组合特征指示该套火山岩应形成于大陆边缘弧(活动陆缘)环境。其中变玄武岩和变安山岩岩浆起源于楔形地幔的部分熔融,且有陆壳物质的参与;变英安岩的形成则与壳源物质的部分熔融有关。     

内蒙古苏尼特右旗温都尔庙地区早石炭世火山岩的发现及其构造意义

内蒙古苏尼特右旗温都尔庙地区发现一套以片理化安山岩和蚀变流纹岩为主的火山岩,其中测得安山岩的锆石SHRIMP年龄为333±4Ma。岩石可分为玄武岩-安山岩类和英安岩-流纹岩类,其中玄武岩-安山岩类火山岩Si O2含量47.40%~62.75%,Mg#值介于17.2~25.6,属于拉斑系列;稀土总量较低,总体趋势近水平,轻重稀土分馏不明显,Eu异常不明显(δEu=1.22~1.46);岩石经历了强片理化和蚀变作用,大离子亲石元素(LILEs)容易发生活动运移,变化较大,但总体呈富集状态,Ta、Nb和Ti明显亏损,类似岛弧火山岩,其原始岩浆应起源于受俯冲板片脱水熔融交代的地幔楔。英安岩-流纹岩类火山岩Si O2含量63.50%~79.80%,相对富集大离子亲石元素,亏损高场强元素(如Nb、Ta、Ti)及Sr、P元素,类似活动大陆边缘火山岩,其原始岩浆应源于地壳物质的部分熔融。综上所述,笔者认为早石炭世期间,华北板块北缘处于古亚洲洋的俯冲作用下,古亚洲洋的闭合时间应晚于早石炭世。     

新疆阿尔泰南缘达拉乌兹双峰式火山岩年龄及岩石成因

阿尔泰南缘达拉乌兹一带出露了一套玄武岩和流纹岩频繁互层的双峰式火山岩组合。该套双峰式火山岩发生了绿片岩相变质作用,其基性端元——变质玄武岩和酸性端元——变质流纹岩具明显的变余斑状结构。利用LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb法获得流纹岩的喷发年龄365.6±1.6Ma和捕获的锆石年龄413.5±2.0Ma。变质玄武岩富TiO2、碱(富钠)(Na2O/K2O=4.43～19.33)和FeOT,贫MgO和CaO,轻微富集LILE和LREE,具弱的Nb、Ta和Ti的负异常,具有高于正常弧火山岩但低于OIB的HFSE元素(Nb、Ta、Zr、Hf)的含量,Eu负异常不明显。流纹岩具有高SiO2和全碱,具有低的TiO2、极低的MgO和FeOT,呈现明显的Ti、P、Sr、Ba负异常,Th、U、Pb的正异常,HFSE元素(Zr、Hf)和LREE略富集但Nb、Ta亏损的特征,并显示Eu的明显负异常(δEu=0.21～0.41)。它们均具有相似于N-MORB的较低的Pb同位素组成。玄武岩与流纹岩来自两个不同的岩浆房,玄武岩为受俯冲物质加入的亏损软流圈地幔部分熔融后并发生结晶分异作用的结果,流纹岩为新生的地壳物质受幔源岩浆加热熔融并与之混合后演化的产物。结合阿尔泰南缘地区的构造演化特征,推测该双峰式火山岩俯冲作用引起的局部拉张作用的产物。     

西天山特克斯县北乌孙山大哈拉军山组火山岩地球化学特征及构造意义

对西天山特克斯西北乌孙山中部地区出露的火山岩进行了地球化学研究,结果表明玄武岩、安山岩均为拉斑质火山岩,LREE较富集[(La/Yb)N介于3.44~11.36之间],具有弱的Eu负异常(δEu=0.79~1.13),安山岩与流纹岩明显富集强不相容元素(如Cs、Rb、Ba、Th、U)和LREE。玄武岩与中酸性岩样品具有轻微的差异,但所有样品具有较明显的Nb、Ta、Ti负异常,并且除了活动性较强的元素(Cs、Rb、Ba)外,其余微量元素均接近于下地壳的含量,(Th/Nb)N介于2.02~8.12之间,(Nb/La)N介于0.40~0.45之间,远远小于1,La/Ba值低(0.01~0.07),Ba/Nb值高(90~410);Zr/Nb值平均为16.48,最为接近原始地幔(15.71)的比值;而Ta/Nb、Hf/Ta、Th/Yb值平均为0.10、3.77、0.64,较为接近上地壳(0.10、3.50、0.48)的比值,Zr含量大于90×10-6,Zr/Y值在4左右,显示了板内玄武岩的特征。结合区域上地质特征,认为该地区在石炭纪时碰撞结束进入碰撞后伸展阶段,局部具有裂谷化特征。样品的Nb、Ta、Ti负异常应为地壳混染引起,火山岩的形成环境为碰撞后伸展的构造环境。     

东准噶尔老爷庙地区早石炭世黑山头组火山岩地质、地球化学特征及构造环境分析

东准噶尔东部老爷庙地区黑山头组火山岩由玄武岩(少)+安山岩+英安岩+流纹岩组成,属高钾钙碱性-钾玄岩系列,流纹岩LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb加权平均年龄为(330.7±7.4)Ma。富集大粒子亲石元素Rb,K,Ba,Th,亏损Nb,Ta,P,Ti,弱负Eu异常,稀土分布型式及微量元素特征与安第斯型相似,形成于活动大陆边缘,岩浆来源于俯冲板片部分熔融改造后的富集地幔楔。表明卡拉麦里洋在早石炭世仍向北俯冲消减。     

藏北望牲山火山岩地球化学研究及其构造意义

望牲山火山岩位于金沙江缝合带内,为一套基性—中性火山岩组合,由亚碱性玄武岩、玄武安山岩、安山岩组成。这些火山岩具有Sr、(K)、Rb、Ba、Th富集和Nb、Ta、Ti亏损特征,Nb／Th—Nb、La／Nb—La和Th—Nb—Hf非活动性微量元素组合显示出岛弧火山岩的地球化学特征,是金沙江海槽在晚三叠世期间洋壳俯冲及裂陷的岩浆作用产物。它可能是金沙江缝合带在羌塘盆地北部出露的重要岩石学证据。     

浙西开化地区新元古代(~800 Ma)洋陆俯冲:来自活动陆缘弧火山岩序列组合的制约

浙西开化地区处于江南造山带东段,沿下庄-树范断裂北西侧发育一套浅变质的玄武岩-安山岩-英安岩-流纹岩组合.地球化学分析结果显示,玄武岩、安山岩和英安岩、流纹岩表现为连续演化的岩浆序列,岩石多富集Ba、K、Rb,亏损Sr等大离子亲石元素,富集Pb,亏损P、Ti、Ta、Nb等高场强元素.玄武岩Nb含量介于11.8×10-6~15.2×10-6,Nb/Ta=15.36~18.10,Nb/U=8.90~19.32,具有富Nb特点;安山岩MgO含量为5.31%~8.56%,Mg#值为56.89~68.83,FeOT/MgO介于0.82~1.36,显示高Mg特征;英安岩和流纹岩Ga/Al比值高,且FeOT/MgO多介于5.66~18.50,锆石饱和温度为837~920℃,表现出A型酸性火山岩特征.锆石U-Pb定年结果表明,玄武岩、安山岩和流纹岩的成岩年龄分别为800.5±9.2 Ma、799.3±7.1 Ma和798.3±6.2 Ma,均系新元古代（~800 Ma）构造岩浆活动的产物.富Nb玄武岩和高Mg安山岩组合为活动陆缘弧的典型代表,而英安岩和流纹岩则可能形成于俯冲机制下的拉张环境,进一步表明新元古代（~800 Ma）左右,古华南洋北西向扬子陆块的俯冲仍在继续.      

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.
