华北东部橄榄岩与岩石圈减薄中的地幔伸展和侵蚀置换作用

对比分析了华北不同时代捕虏体橄榄岩及其南部超高压地质体橄榄岩的矿物化学。具古老难熔岩石圈地幔特征的橄榄岩是古生代金伯利岩捕虏体和早中生代苏鲁变质带地质体的主要岩石类型。具这一性质的橄榄岩也构成了河南鹤壁上新世玄武岩捕虏体的主体部分,并可以在辽宁阜新晚中生代玄武岩中被发现。具饱满岩石圈地幔性质的橄榄岩则是阜新晚中生代火山岩、特别是郯庐断裂带(山旺)及其附近地区(栖霞)中新世玄武岩捕虏体的主要类型。从华北东部已有的捕虏体橄榄岩及地质体橄榄岩所表现出的新生饱满与古老难熔地幔的时、空分布特点,即有些地区捕虏体橄榄岩表现出不同性质地幔共存现象(如阜新、鹤壁)或橄榄石Mg#呈渐变关系看:克拉通岩石圈地幔因扬子板块俯冲所引起的早期(如早中生代)地幔伸展、和晚中生代—渐新世因太平洋俯冲所引起的热扰动的软流圈物质上涌对古老地幔产生强烈的侵蚀作用(引起岩石圈的巨大减薄);中新世以来的软流圈热沉降作用出现新生岩石圈地幔并表现为岩石圈的小幅增厚,从而实现地幔置换过程和华北东部岩石圈的整体减薄过程。岩石圈幔内薄弱带及岩石圈深断裂(如郯庐断裂带)起了软流圈物质侵蚀古老岩石圈地幔的通道作用并导引着深部物质运移和不规则减薄作用等。个别地区(如阜新)强烈的软流圈上涌于晚中生代就已经开始,显示地幔置换作用的强烈不均一性。     

华北地块东部晚中生代至新生代岩石圈不均一减薄与改造模式

本文综合运用不同时代幔源包体平衡温压对比、玄武岩地球化学性质对岩石圈厚度的反演以及不同时代岩石圈地幔地球化学性质的对比的方法，把华北地块东部岩石圈的减薄时间限定在晚中生代至新生代之间。减薄的机制可能是华北东部地区晚白垩世以来大陆岩石圈的拉张作用。由于机械性拉薄和热、机械和化学侵蚀作用，岩石圈厚度最终减薄到70km以下。但古老的岩石圈地幔并没有完全因减薄而消失，残留部分受到了来自软流圈物质的强烈改造，使其Sr、Nd同位素组成类似于软流圈，但Os同位素没有受到明显的改变。改造后的岩石圈地幔成为华北地块东部新生代岩石圈地幔的主体。在时空上，岩石圈的减薄具有不均一的性质。     

中国东部岩石圈减薄时间的制约及构造控制因素探讨

华北地块中生代含幔源包体玄武岩同位素年龄、岩石化学、地球化学及Sr-Nd同位素研究成果表明:119 Ma~110 Ma之间华北地块岩石圈地幔性质由富集型岩石圈地幔转化为亏损的软流圈地幔,岩石圈地幔性质的显著变化,说明中国东部岩石圈减薄的主要时间发生在早白垩世晚期119~100 Ma之间。中生代古太平洋伊泽奈崎大洋板块(Izanagi Plate)向欧亚板块俯冲所导致的拆沉,应是岩石圈减薄的重要控制因素。     

湘赣地区中生代镁铁质岩浆作用与岩石圈伸展

综合分析了华南内部中生代 (178～ 80Ma)镁铁质岩石的年代学和元素同位素地球化学特征。研究表明区内主要发育 4期镁铁质岩浆活动 :2 2 0Ma± ,175Ma± ,12 0～ 15 0Ma ,80～ 90Ma ,其中 2 2 0Ma仅在道县发育辉长岩包体。地球化学上区内 175Ma左右的宁远太阳山和赣中项家碱性玄武岩和 80～ 90Ma的镁铁质岩石主要表现为Hawaii OIB玄武岩的元素同位素地球化学特征 ,而175Ma的其他镁铁质岩石表现为岩石圈地幔属性。 12 0～ 15 0Ma的镁铁质岩石则介于岩石圈地幔端员与软流圈地幔端员之间。时、空上表现为以郴州—临武断裂为界 ,西侧自 170Ma左右的EMI型为主向 80～ 90Ma的OIB型为主迁移演化 ,而东侧则自老而新自EMII型 (175Ma)为主演变为以OIB型 (80～ 90Ma)为主。上述资料暗示区内至少存在 4期强烈的岩石圈减薄作用 ,软流圈物质上涌和岩石圈伸展减薄是华南中生代岩浆作用形成的主要机制。但 2 2 0Ma左右的伸展减薄范围局限 ,而较大规模的岩石圈伸展减薄和软流圈上涌始于 178Ma ,其形成可能与华南印支造山作用的后造山 (或后碰撞 )拉张裂解地球动力学背景有关。同时也暗示郴州—临武断裂可能是界定中生代EMI型扬子岩石圈和EMII型华夏岩石圈地幔的重要边界。     

郯庐断裂带巢湖—庐江段晚中生代火山岩的锆石U-Pb年代学

采用LA-ICP-MS方法对郯庐断裂带巢湖—庐江段的晚中生代火山岩进行了锆石U-Pb年代学研究。由6个样品获得的该处火山喷发时间在距今125~93Ma,为早白垩世晚期至晚白垩世初期,经历了32Ma的喷发历史。与附近的庐枞盆地、北大别造山带及北淮阳地区相比,该地火山喷发具有较晚的结束时间,说明岩石圈减薄具有相对强烈的程度和较长的持续时间。93Ma是已知的华北克拉通残留富集岩石圈地幔最晚的岩浆岩年代学记录。锆石的饱和温度计算、岩浆中较低的MgO含量和Mg^#值均不支持岩浆由拆沉的下地壳部分熔融形成,岩浆活动的可能成因是壳幔相互作用,岩浆源区具有由幔源向壳源再过渡到幔源的时间演化顺序。这暗示断裂带下强烈的软流圈上涌引起岩石圈地幔的熔融(距今125Ma),随后岩石圈持续的减薄作用导致其内部热流升高,出现了以流纹岩为代表的地热异常背景下地壳源区的部分熔融(距今120Ma),而最终岩石圈强烈减薄背景下的软流圈物质参与岩浆过程可能是晚期幔源岩浆(距今93Ma)的成因。     

中国东部岩石圈减薄研究中的几个问题

中国东部岩石圈减薄是近 10年来国内外研究的热门课题 ,但关于岩石圈减薄的具体时间、机制及其构造控制因素 ,多有争论。根据目前的研究资料 ,文中对上述问题进行了全面的讨论。初步认为该岩石圈减薄发生在晚中生代 ,且在 12 0～ 130Ma的早白垩世达到高潮。综合分析认为 ,岩石圈的减薄与东侧太平洋板块的俯冲有关 ,即大洋板块的俯冲作用导致岩石圈加厚 ,进而发生岩石圈拆沉。Os同位素资料显示 ,由地幔橄榄岩包体所反映的新生代岩石圈地幔具有年轻性质 ,与古生代时的岩石圈地幔截然不同。因此笔者认为 ,中国东部现今的岩石圈地幔并不是减薄后的残留 ,它表明中生代时 ,岩石圈地幔和部分下地壳一起通过拆沉作用而沉入软流圈地幔 ,由此而导致软流圈地幔与地壳的直接接触。幔源岩浆的底侵及软流圈对地壳的直接加热作用 ,使上覆地壳发生大规模的岩浆和成矿作用 ,并导致中国东部中生代时期伸展构造的广泛发育。     

中国东部壳-幔、岩石圈-软流圈之间的相互作用带：特征及转换时限

中国东部中—新生代,下部岩石圈存在壳与幔、岩石圈与软流圈两个相互作用带,它们是重要的岩浆源区,在层圈相互作用中,热和物质的交换及其动力学过程是引起中、新生代岩石圈内部层圈间的厚度调整、岩石圈不均匀减薄以及区域构造-岩浆-成矿作用的重要机理。大陆内部的壳-幔作用有3种类型:地幔来源的底侵熔体与下地壳的作用;下地壳拆沉进入弱化(weakening)了的岩石圈地幔二者发生的作用以及陆-陆碰撞深俯冲带的壳-幔相互作用。它们形成的火山岩组合有一定的差别,但源区都含有地壳组分。岩石圈-软流圈的作用带也是重要的岩浆源区,源区是以软流圈地幔为主,基本不含地壳组分。东部岩石圈的减薄时间大体与出现大规模软流圈来源的玄武岩喷发的时间一致,也与上述两类层圈作用转换的时间一致,大约在100Ma以后。     

华北东部中生代晚期-新生代软流圈上涌与岩石圈减薄

现今的地幔是由软流圈地幔(热的,主元素饱满、微量元素亏损的,塑性流变性质的)、古老岩石圈地幔(地幔1,冷的,主元素贫瘠、微量元素富集的,刚性的,以方辉橄榄岩为代表)以及现今的岩石圈地幔(地幔2,主元素饱满、微量元素亏损,以二辉橄榄岩为代表,可能包括多时期形成的)组成。古老岩石圈地幔与地幔2样品的共存、100~4·3Ma在地幔内部持续发生的古老岩石圈与软流圈的相互作用以及上述作用的时空不均一性,都表明了岩石圈减薄是软流圈呈“蘑菇云状”大规模上涌的结果。上述事件发生于100Ma以后。软流圈来源的玄武岩大范围喷发并伴随了岩石圈的强烈拉伸是事件发生的主要标志,岩石圈减薄是一个深部地质过程,不像是突发事件。     

胶莱盆地晚白垩世玄武岩的年代学和地球化学特征及其对华北岩石圈减薄-增生的制约

已有研究认为华北岩石圈减薄的时空不均一是显著的,主要表现在软流圈来源的岩浆最早出现的时间呈现南北差异。本文通过40Ar-39Ar法获得胶莱盆地西官庄拉斑玄武岩的年龄为96±3Ma,属于青山群火山岩的一部分,早于王氏群大西庄碱性玄武岩(73Ma)。两套岩石均缺乏Nb、Ta负异常,分别具有与E-MORB和OIB类似的微量元素配分特征。西官庄拉斑玄武岩((87Sr/86Sr)t=0.7058,εNd(t)=0.37～0.57)和大西庄碱性玄武岩((87Sr/86Sr)t=0.7040,εNd(t)=5.5～5.7)的同位素组成特征均显示软流圈的印记。前者为软流圈熔体与古老富集岩石圈地幔相互反应的产物,而后者是软流圈部分熔融的产物。研究区岩浆的εNd(t)值随年龄的降低而逐渐增大,暗示古老岩石圈减薄过程中软流圈的上涌,说明研究区晚白垩世-早新生代岩石圈仍在经历减薄作用。类似的岩浆演化趋势在辽西和辽东地区也有发现,不过演化的时间分别为120～100Ma和80～60Ma,再次证明华北岩石圈减薄作用的时空不均一性。     

现今塔里木克拉通岩石圈厚度分析及机制探讨

塔里木盆地是青藏高原周边稳定的克拉通陆块,在印度板块与欧亚板块碰撞过程中一直保持稳定,盆地内部没有发生强烈的变形,其地壳热状态也同样保持稳定,地温梯度没有明显的变化,以热力学为基础的岩石圈热学厚度约为250km左右,该厚度是热稳态岩石圈的厚度。而最新的地震热学方法的研究成果表明塔里木盆地的岩石圈厚度仅为150km左右,这表明塔里木盆地岩石圈的热结构可能并不是处于稳态状态,其底部正在或已经发生了减薄。本文利用构造热演化方法对塔里木岩石圈减薄的热演化过程进行了定量分析,探讨了塔里木盆地岩石圈减薄可能的三种机制：印度板块与欧亚板块碰撞后青藏高原岩石圈底部的软流圈较塔里木盆地岩石圈底部的软流圈的温度要高,青藏高原的软流圈地幔向塔里木盆地岩石圈底部侵入形成的热扰动使得塔里木盆地岩石圈底部的温度升高;塔里木岩石圈与其下流动的软流圈的摩擦剪切生热导致其岩石圈地幔底部温度升高,使得岩石圈底部发生热侵蚀,从而使得与软流圈接触的岩石圈地幔不断地加入到软流圈地幔;在塔里木盆地岩石圈的下部,青藏高原的岩石圈在该处发生了拆沉,从而诱发的软流圈地幔对流,上升的软流圈地幔流使得岩石圈地幔的温度升高而熔融,成为软流圈地幔。     

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.
