钒钛磁铁矿电炉渣工艺矿物学研究

以攀枝花钒钛磁铁矿电炉渣为研究对象,通过化学分析、X射线衍射及电子探针-能谱等手段对电炉渣的化学组成、矿物组成、矿物嵌布特征、元素分布情况进行了较为系统的研究,结果表明:电炉渣中有94.74%的钛赋存于黑钛石中,镁和铝主要以镁铝尖晶石形式存在,钙和硅主要存在透辉石中,而铁元素在各矿物中分布较为分散。有用矿物黑钛石主要与透辉石呈浸染关系,部分与镁铝尖晶石呈嵌布关系,同时有部分镁和铝以类质同像形式进入到黑钛石中,导致黑钛石中TiO_2含量仅82.04%。研究结果可为钒钛磁铁矿电炉渣的综合利用提供科学依据。     

山东蒙阴金伯利岩中尖晶石族矿物特征及种类划分

山东蒙阴金刚石矿区金伯利岩中的尖晶石族矿物究竟是铬铁矿还是尖晶石一直倍受争议,为了确定山东蒙阴矿区形态复杂的尖晶石族矿物种类,项目组对矿区的尖晶石族矿物进行了系统的采样,利用电子探针对50件尖晶石族矿物MgO、FeO、TiO2、Al2O3、MnO、Cr2O3进行微区化学成分分析,结果显示,山东蒙阴金刚石矿区金伯利岩中尖晶石族矿物A、B端元成分复杂,不存在单纯的铬铁矿或尖晶石矿物种,以化学分子式分类为基础得到的尖晶石族矿物种类主要有:铁镁-铬铁钛、镁铁-铬铁铝钛、铁镁-铬铝铁、镁铁-铬铝铁、铁镁-铬铁钛铝、镁铁-铬铝、铁镁-铬铝7个亚种。山东蒙阴金伯利岩中尖晶石族矿物的主要端元组分为MgAl2O4、MgCr2O4、FeCr2O4,矿物化学成分分析表明,Mg质量分数较高(7.3%~11.8%),其中Fe、Mg离子数比近于1:1,构成富镁的铬铁矿。     

橄榄岩中尖晶石的O同位素继承性与晶体结构转换

应用增量法计算的矿物对O同位素分馏曲线，得到正尖晶石-矿物对O同位素温度高于尖晶石在地幔中的熔点，而用反尖晶石-矿物对计算的O同位素温度低于尖晶石的熔点，较为合理。因此，地幔橄榄岩中镁铝尖晶石的O同位素组成可能继承了其母体反尖晶石特征，即使反结构尖晶石在发生相变作用变成正结构尖晶石时未发生O同位素再平衡。     

Li同位素在斜顽辉石、镁铝榴石及镁铝尖晶石晶格内扩散与分馏的理论计算研究

斜顽辉石、镁铝榴石和镁铝尖晶石作为辉石族、石榴石族以及尖晶石族中的重要端元,是地球上地幔主要组成矿物。Li同位素是重要的地幔地球化学示踪剂,其在橄榄石、辉石和石榴石等地幔矿物中的扩散分馏的性质对理解Li同位素作为地幔地球化学示踪剂非常重要。我们通过经典力场经验势方法,从原子尺度上计算研究了不同温压条件下Li同位素在斜顽辉石、镁铝榴石和镁铝尖晶石晶格中分别通过不同的填隙机制和取代空位机制迁移的活化能和其在不同晶格位上的分馏效应。我们发现Li同位素是通过取代空位机制在斜顽辉石、镁铝榴石和镁铝尖晶石中进行迁移扩散。Li同位素在不同晶格位上的分馏作用计算表明,在三种矿物中重同位素7Li会更多地进入晶格填隙位中,而6Li则相对更多进入Mg位。温度是影响这种分馏作用的一个关键因素,相应的结果可用来解释地幔Li同位素组成特征及冷却条件下的同位素分馏等科学问题。     

橄榄岩中尖晶石的氧同位素继承性与晶体结构转变

根据激光探针分析含尖晶石橄榄石中矿物的氧同位素组成,反应增量法计算矿物对氧同位素分馏曲线,得到正尖晶石－矿物对氧同位素温度高于含尖晶石橄榄岩的相平衡温度,而用反尖晶石－矿物的对计算的氧同位素温度则很接近含尖晶石橄榄岩的相平衡温度,较为合理,因此地幔橄榄岩中镁铝尖晶石的氧同位素组成继承了其母体反尖晶石特征,即与橄榄石,单斜辉石和斜方辉石平衡的是反结构尖晶石,在其发生相变作用变成正结构尖晶石时未发生氧     

金伯利岩中铬的相态及找矿地球化学信息--以华北地台为例

对华北地台金伯利岩地球化学找矿信息提取表明:铬是判别岩体含矿与否的重要指示元素。铬的相态分属尖晶石、镁铝榴石和镁钛铁矿三类矿物族。研究得出,各矿物指示含矿的化学成分标型为:铬尖晶石Cr2O3>53%,Al2O3<11%,MgO<12%,Cr#值大于0 7。镁铝榴石Cr2O3>5%,Al2O3<19%,Cr#值大于0 2。镁钛铁矿Cr2O3>1%,MgO>11%。由于铬尖晶石相对稳定,其化学组成为提取金伯利岩找矿信息的首选对象。     

金刚石中的矿物包裹体

山东、辽宁金伯利岩区金刚石中的矿物包裹体是单晶相及多晶相的。大部分原生矿物包裹体为橄榄石,也有铬尖晶石、镁铝榴石、单斜辉石、斜方辉石、自然铁、针镍矿、柯石英、方解石及石墨。云母为后生包裹体矿物。橄榄石包裹体矿物富含Fo及Cr_2O_3。镁铝榴石矿物包裹体为紫红色,含Cr_2O_3,MgO及镁铬榴石分子高,形成压力为7.5GPa。单斜辉石包裹体矿物为绿色,形成温度和压力分别为:1531℃和4.5GPa。铬尖晶石包裹体矿物含Cr_2O_3及Cr/(Cr+Al)比值高,而含Al_2O_3低。柯石英的SiO_2含量为99.15％。自然铁含有少量的Co,Ni。针镍矿在金刚石中较常见。在橄榄石矿物包裹体内,见有方解石产出,其为同生矿物包裹体。     

造山带陆壳增厚的一个岩石学记录

深部陆壳的生长及壳－幔相互作用是地质学家们关注的一个问题。火成岩及其中的深源包体是研究壳－幔深部作用的一个重要途径。文中以济南辉长岩及基 包体的研究为例,揭示华北陆合地区造山带陆壳增厚的特征。济南辉长岩具造山带火成岩属性。辉长岩中首次发现的尖晶石单辉岩和石榴石单辉岩包体与东部新生代玄武岩中的辉石岩包体不同,其主要矿物为深绿辉石,以及钙铝榴石、钙长石、方解石等一些富钙矿物和镁铁尖晶石等。这些辉石岩包     

新疆洪古勒楞蛇绿岩中铬尖晶石的化学成分变异及其意义

本文应用了洪古勒楞蛇绿岩中铬尖晶石的电子探针分析数据,讨论该蛇绿岩中不同岩石中铬尖晶石化学成分特征,显示出铬尖晶石的成分与寄主岩石有关。基本可将其分为三组:造矿铬尖晶石、堆积岩副矿物铬尖晶石和地幔橄榄岩副矿物铬尖晶石。它们在主要成分和微量成分方面均存在区别,化学成分的相关性也不一样。共生橄榄石-铬尖晶石对的元素分配说明二者基本为平衡矿物。     

镁铬质耐火材料的快速分析

镁铬质耐火材料是建材工业上很有发展前途的一种耐火材料,主要由尖晶石类矿物和方镁石按一定比例烧制而成。由于烧制过程中生成了MgO、FeO、Al_2O_3、Cr_2O_3、Fe_2O_3组成的多元固熔体,因而具有耐高温,抗酸碱等性能,分析中分解试样较难。本文试验了试样的最佳分解条件并初探了分解机理。拟定不分离铬,一次取样测定耐火材料中SiO_2,Al_2O_3、Fe_2O_3、TiO_2、MgO、CaO、Cr_2O_3、K_2O、Na_2O的分析流程,用于镁铬质耐火材料分析,分析结果与常规分析方法相吻合。     

西昆仑库地蛇绿岩富Al型豆荚状铬铁矿床成因

西昆仑库地蛇绿岩发育小规模的铬铁矿床,矿体呈豆荚状和层状、似层状,均与纯橄岩紧密伴生。这些纯橄岩主要由橄榄石和副矿物尖晶石组成,与方辉橄榄岩相比,橄榄岩中的橄榄石粒径粗(平均2.5mm),Mg#(88~90)低,这与它们全岩低Mg#(90)值,富Al_2O_3、TiO_2、Cr_2O_3、Fe_2O_3相吻合,与熔融残余成因的纯橄岩明显不同,反映了其很可能是由熔体与方辉橄榄岩反应而成。矿体主要由块状、浸染状及脉状铬铁矿石组成;铬铁矿石中的尖晶石具有低而相对稳定的Cr#(43~56),低于富铬型铬铁矿矿床中的铬铁矿(Cr#60)。块状矿石与纯橄岩呈突变接触,矿石中的尖晶石呈浑圆状,包裹有较多橄榄石、辉石等硅酸盐矿物及角闪石等含水硅酸盐矿物;浸染状铬铁矿石中的尖晶石与橄榄石颗粒构成交织结构,或呈云朵状,沿橄榄石颗粒边界相互连接,矿石的结构构造显示了熔/岩反应成因特征。通过计算分析,我们认为该区富铝型铬铁矿石是由拉斑玄武质熔体与地幔橄榄岩反应而成,由于熔体中含有较高的H_2O,参与反应的熔体可能源于弧后扩张脊环境。     

Chromian spinel mineralogy of the Staré Ransko gabbro-peridotite,Czech Republic,and its implications for sulfide mineralization

Chromian spinels from the Staré Ransko gabbro-peridotite, Czech Republic, display a distinct development trend: from primary Cr-rich spinels towards ferro-ferri (Ti-enriched magnetite) and magnesio-alumina (spinel sensu stricto) spinels. Zoning in the spinels is thought to be the result of a combination of exsolution, postdepositional diffusion and replacement processes. Multiphase, globular silicate inclusions — mainly biotite and amphibole, also orthopyroxene, serpentine and chlorite — are present in euhedral, largely homogeneous chromian spinels which occur in a matrix of poikilitic amphibole. The enclosed minerals have similar compositions to the minerals in the host rock. These silicate inclusions are interpreted as being due to a late magmatic introduction of a hydrous K-Ca-rich melt phase, contaminated by wall-rock interaction, into a semi-solidified olivine (± pyroxenes) cumulate.The composition of the chromian spinel may be used as an indicator for sulfide mineralization conditions (Johan 1979). The data reported in this paper are compatible with Johan's model.     

Chromian spinels in lherzolite inclusions from Itinome-gata,Japan

Spinel, which constitutes from 0.7% to 3% of lherzolite inclusions, occurs as primary anhedral grains (chrome-rich variety) and as a secondary phase as breakdown products of garnet (alumina-rich variety). Although individual primary spinel grains are chemically homogeneous, spinels are characterized by a wide range of Cr/Al ratios and a relatively narrow range of Mg/Fe″ ratios, even in a single lherzolite sample. The chemical variations of spinels are considered to have the following origin: When garnet lherzolite enters the stability field of the spinel peridotite facies as a consequence of slow upward transport, both orthopyroxenes and clinopyroxenes are recrystallized with loss of jadeite and some Tschermak's component to reach equilibrium. A part of the Tschermak's component reacts with olivine to form pyroxene and spinel. This secondary spinel component is alloted to the primary chromian spinel. However, these reactions did not always reach equilibrium with the major constituent minerals in the lherzolites.     

Magmatic unmixing in spinel from late Precambrian concentrically-zoned mafic–ultramafic intrusions, Eastern Desert, Egypt

Spinel is widespread in the ultramafic core rocks of zoned late Precambrian mafic–ultramafic complexes from the Eastern Desert of Egypt. These complexes; Gabbro Akarem, Genina Gharbia and Abu Hamamid are Precambrian analogues of Alaskan-type complexes, they are not metamorphosed although weakly altered. Each intrusion is composed of a predotite core enveloped by pyroxenites and gabbros at the margin. Silicate mineralogy and chemistry suggest formation by crystal fractionation from a hydrous magma. Relatively high Cr₂O₃ contents are recorded in pyroxenes (up to 1.1 wt.%) and amphiboles (up to 1.4 wt.%) from the three plutons. The chrome spinel crystallized at different stages of melt evolution; as early cumulus inclusions in olivine, inclusions in pyroxenes and amphiboles and late-magmatic intercumulus phase. The intercumulus chrome spinel is homogenous with narrow-range of chemical composition, mainly Fe³⁺-rich spinel. Spinel inclusions in clinopyroxene and amphibole reveal a wide range of Al (27–44 wt.% Al₂O₃) and Mg (6–13 wt.% MgO) contents and are commonly zoned. The different chemistries of those spinels reflect various stages of melt evolution and re-equilibration with the host minerals. The early cumulus chrome spinel reveals a complex unmixing structures and compositions. Three types of unmixed spinels are recognized; crystallographically oriented, irregular and complete separation. Unmixing products are Al-rich (Type I) and Fe³⁺-rich (Type II) spinels with an extensive solid solution between the two end members. The compositions of the unmixed spinels define a miscibility gap with respect to Cr–Al–Fe³⁺, extending from the Fe³⁺–Al join towards the Cr corner. Spinel unmixing occurs in response to cooling and the increase in oxidation state. The chemistry and grain size of the initial spinel and the cooling rate control the type of unmixing and the chemistry of the final products. Causes of spinel unmixing during late-magmatic stage are analogous to those in metamorphosed complexes. The chemistry of the unmixed spinels is completely different from the initial spinel composition and is not useful in petrogenetic interpretations. Spinels from oxidized magmas are likely to re-equilibrate during cooling and are not good tools for genetic considerations.     

Petrography,chemical composition,and Raman spectra of chrome spinel: Constraints on the diamond potential of the No. 30 pipe kimberlite in Wafangdian,North China Craton

Conventional diamond exploration seldom searches directly for diamonds in rock and soil samples. Instead, it focuses on the search for indicator minerals like chrome spinel, which can be used to evaluate diamond potential. Chrome spinels are preserved as pristine minerals in the early Paleozoic (∼465 Ma), hydrothermally altered, Group I No. 30 pipe kimberlite that intruded the Neoproterozoic Qingbaikou strata in Wafangdian, North China Craton (NCC). The characteristics of the chrome spinels were investigated by petrographic observation (BSE imaging), quantitative chemical analysis (EPMA), and Raman spectral analysis. The results show that the chrome spinels are mostly sub-rounded with extremely few grains being subhedral, and these spinels are macrocrystic, more than 500 µm in size. The chrome spinels also have compositional zones: the cores are classified as magnesiochromite as they have distinctly chromium-rich (Cr₂O₃ up to 66.56 wt%) and titanium-poor (TiO₂ < 1 wt%) compositions; and the rims are classified as magnetite as they have chromium-poor and iron-rich composition. In the cores of chrome spinels, compositional variations are controlled by Al³⁺-Cr³⁺ isomorphism, which results in a strong Raman spectra peak (A_1g mode) varying from 690 cm⁻¹ to 702.9 cm⁻¹. In the rims of chrome spinel, compositional variations result in the A_1g peak varying from 660 cm⁻¹ to 672 cm⁻¹. The morphology and chemical compositions indicate that the chrome spinels are mantle xenocrysts. The cores of the spinel are remnants of primary mantle xenocrysts that have been resorbed, and the rims were formed during kimberlite magmatism. The compositions of the cores are used to evaluate the diamond potential of this kimberlite through comparison with the compositions of chrome spinels from the Changmazhuang and No. 50 pipe kimberlites in the NCC. In MgO, Al₂O₃ and TiO₂ versus Cr₂O₃ plots, the chrome spinels from the Changmazhuang and No. 50 pipe kimberlites are mostly located in the diamond stability field. However, only a small proportion of chrome spinels from No. 30 pipe kimberlite have same behavior, which indicates that the diamond potential of the former two kimberlites is greater than that of the No. 30 pipe kimberlite. This is also supported by compositional zones in the spinel grains: there is with an increase in Fe³⁺ in the rims, which suggests that the chrome spinels experienced highly oxidizing conditions. Oxidizing conditions may have been imparted by fluids/melts that have a great influence on diamond destruction. Here, we suggest that chrome spinel compositions can be a useful tool for identifying the target for diamond potential in the North China Craton.

地幔橄榄岩捕掳体中尖晶石筛状边的成因

山东的无棣大山和栖霞方山是两个以霞石岩为主的新生代火山,含有大量的地幔橄榄岩捕掳体,橄榄岩捕掳体中的尖晶石常见黑色反应边。在BSE图像上,这些反应边根据结构的不同又可以进一步分为两种:筛状边和均一边。有时两种反应边在同一颗尖晶石中共存并相互过渡。尖晶石捕掳晶和捕掳体中与寄主岩直接接触的尖晶石常发育均一边;发育筛状边的尖晶石则一般不直接与寄主岩接触,但位于捕掳体的边缘。尖晶石的筛状边呈多孔状,为富Cr尖晶石或铬铁矿。筛状边成分上与核部(Cr_2O_3=7.52%~36.75%,Cr#=7.80~44.20,Mg#=44.70~74.48)区别明显,具有高的Cr_2O_3含量(23.42%~65.96%)、Cr#值(78.97~92.49)以及低的Mg#值(17.22~43.02)。另外,筛状边相对其核部(TiO 2=0.00%~0.53%,MnO=0.04%~0.35%)还显示偏高的TiO 2(0.20%~3.60%)和MnO(0.29%~1.93%)。在筛状边附近存在富Al_2O_3(8.00%~17.57%)和MgO(17.89%~26.02%)的玻璃。尖晶石的均一边无孔洞但多发育裂理,成分上与核部突变,并以富TiO 2(20.90%~6.64%)和FeO T(70.79%~53.92%)为特征,最外部为钛磁铁矿。均一边具有明显的成分分带,表现为由内至外TiO 2、FeO T含量逐渐增高,Al_2O_3(0.04%~16.34%)、Cr_2O_3(0.77%~25.69%)和MgO(0.50%~7.16%)含量逐渐降低。尖晶石的两种反应边与寄主岩密切的空间关系说明其成因与寄主岩浆有关。虽然尖晶石筛状边的Cr#值(79.0~92.5)明显高于核部(7.8~44.2),但是其相对核部偏高的TiO 2和MnO含量,以及显著降低的Mg#值均与单纯的部分熔融趋势不吻合。根据尖晶石两种反应边的结构特征、成分特征和相互的空间关系,我们认为筛状边与均一边是岩浆与尖晶石反应不同阶段的产物。当橄榄岩捕掳体被岩浆捕获后,由于成分上的不均衡两者之间将发生溶解反应。反应过程中,尖晶石中不同元素向熔体迁移的速率区别明显,其中Cr是最难熔的元素也是迁移最慢的元素。在反应的初始阶段,由于易溶组份Al、Mg等元素随熔体迁出,尖晶石发育筛状边,并同时伴随Cr#值的显著升高和Mg#值的显著降低。此时,寄主岩浆中的Ti、Mn等元素也部分扩散进入筛状边中的残留尖晶石。如果熔体足够多,反应得以持续进行,筛状边中的Cr最终也将被熔体带走。在反应产生的混合熔体中金属氧化物最早达到饱和并结晶。随着反应的持续进行,结晶出的矿物将继续生长、变粗,并相互连接,直至孔洞消失形成均一边。同时伴随着矿物的不断结晶,溶解界面上的熔体成分也不断变化,从而使均一边具有明显的成分分带。在橄榄岩捕掳体内部,由于渗进捕掳体中的岩浆有限,渗透岩浆与尖晶石之间的反应多限于早期阶段,反应产物为筛状边。在捕掳体边缘,与寄主岩浆直接接触的尖晶石由于参与反应的岩浆量足够多,因此一般产生反应的终端产物———均一边。     

铬尖晶石和石榴石的相变:大陆科学钻探CCSD-PP3孔超镁铁岩超高压变质作用的证据

PP3超镁铁岩主要岩石类型有纯橄岩和石榴石橄榄岩,两者为渐变,主要矿物为橄榄石、铬尖晶石、石榴石、单斜辉石和斜方辉石.铬尖晶石的Cr#[Cr/(Cr+Mg) ×100]从51~89变化,TiO₂和MnO₂值分别低于0.26%和0.46%.铬尖晶石矿物表现为4期次演化的特点,反映了从岩浆期、榴辉岩相、角闪岩相和绿片岩相演化特征.随着超镁铁岩的演化,铬尖晶石表现为Cr#不断增大,而Mg#[Mg×100/(Mg+Fe2+) ]不断减少、氧逸度不断增加的过程.PP3铬尖晶石反映了地幔来源,为大陆岩石圈超镁铁岩特征,后期随折返而演化.从石榴石与铬尖晶石相互转变过程看出,PP3超镁铁岩经历了深度加大的过程,超镁铁岩曾经到达100km以上的岩石圈地幔深处.在绿片岩相-绿片角闪岩相变质过程中,铬尖晶石中Cr、Mg和Al减少,Fe相对增加,产生富Cr尖晶石变质作用样式.晚期剪切变形等次生变化影响了铬尖晶石矿物成分.      

Relationship among O, Mg isotopes and the petrography of two spinel-bearing compound chondrules

The petrological properties, and O and Al-Mg isotopic compositions of two spinel-bearing chondrules from the Allende CV chondrite were investigated using scanning electron microscopy and secondary ion mass spectrometry. A coarse spinel grain in a barred-olivine (BO) chondrule is less enriched in ¹⁶O (Δ¹⁷O ∼ −5‰; Δ¹⁷O = δ¹⁷O - 0.52 δ¹⁸O), whereas smaller spinel grains in a plagioclase-rich chondrule member of a compound chondrule are extremely ¹⁶O-rich (Δ¹⁷O ∼ −17‰) and the spinels have a strongly serrated character. The petrological features and ¹⁶O-enrichments of the spinels in the plagioclase-rich chondrule indicate that spinels originating in coarse-grained Ca-Al-rich Inclusions (CAIs) were incorporated into chondrule precursors and survived the chondrule-forming event. The degree of ¹⁶O-excesses among minerals within each chondrule is correlated to the crystallization sequences. This evidence suggests that the O isotopic variation among minerals may have resulted from incomplete exchange of O isotopes between ¹⁶O-rich chondrule melt and ¹⁶O-poor nebular gas. Aqueous alteration also has changed the O-isotope compositions in the mesostasis. The feldspathic mesostasis in the BO chondrule shows a disturbed Mg-Al isochron indicating that the BO chondrule experienced secondary alteration. While plagioclase in the plagioclase-rich chondrule member of the compound chondrule shows slight ²⁶Mg-excesses corresponding to (²⁶Al/²⁷Al)₀ = [4.6±4.0(2σ)] × 10⁻⁶, nepheline formed by secondary alteration shows no detectable excess. The Al-Mg isotopic system of these chondrules was disturbed by aqueous alteration and thermal metamorphism on the Allende parent body.
