华南两个成因系列花岗岩及其成矿特征

关于华南花岗岩成因类型的划分问题讨论已久。最早,翁文灏先生在1920年发表的《中国矿产区域论》中,已将和钨锡矿床有关的南岭花岗岩和与铜铁矿床有关的长江中下游的花岗闪长岩划为二类;1935年孟宪民先生在研究香花岭钨锡矿床的论文中,也持同样看法;1936年谢家荣先生在《中国之矿产时代及矿产区域》一文中进而将两类花岗岩命名为香港式和

Distribution of regional metamorphism fades in U.S.S.R.

A detailed classification of regional metamorphic rock facies is presented along with the results of compiling a small scale Map of Metamorphic Facies of U.S.S.R. It is demonstrated that typical metamorphic complexes are associated with certain large structural elements of the crust. The aspects of metamorphism are used in identifying the areas of ancient platforms, two types of mobile belts, and two types of high pressure zones at the junction of major structures of different degrees of stability.—Author     

Geologic factors of distribution of mineral deposits in eastern U.S.S.R.

The Pacific Mobile belt is differentiated into an outer (continental) zone of predominantly Mesozoic folding (Verkhoyansk -Chukotka, Mongolo-Okhotsk, and Sikhote-Alin folded provinces) and an inner oceanic zone of Cenozoic folding, adjacent to mobile provinces of the "island arc" type (Sakhalin, the Kuriles, Kamchatka). These zones are separated by the East-Asian volcanic belt associated with a fault system which cuts off the older Mesozoic Verkhoyansk-Chukotka and Sikhote- Alin structures. Two important mineralization epochs are evident - Sino-Cambrian and late Mesozoic- Cenozoic. The Mesozoic-Cenozoic mineralization epoch exhibits a definite tendency for “rejuvenation” of the mineralization processes, going away from the continent and toward the Pacific trough, from late Jurassic in the eastern Trans-Baykal region and parts of the northeast to Neogene in the province of the Okhotsk geosynclines. An outstanding feature of endogeneous mineralization in this region is the linear arrangement of the ore zones determined by a system of major magma-controlling and other faults.—C. E. Sears     

Some patterns of abyssal structure in the U.S.S.R.

Analysis of blocks and linear sutures in the base of the Russian Platform shows significant variations in their tectonic activities in different stages of the platformal evolution. --AGI Staff.     

Inhomogeneity of mercury in the U.S.G.S. rock standards

Mercury inhomogeneity was found between bottles of the same standard for each of the six U.S.G.S. rock standards tested. Variations between bottles amounted to at least a factor of 2 for four of the six standards. Caution is suggested when using these standards as mercury accuracy checks and as estimators of mercury geochemical abundances or cycles.     

A new occurrence of Permian Seymouriamorphs in the U.S.S.R.

A large number of specimens of Seymouriamorph amphibian, family Discosauriscidae, were collected from the south slopes of the Kuramanskiy Khrebet, Mt. Sarytaypan, 10 km northeast of the settlement of Adrasman, Tadzhik S.S.R. Deposits yielding the fossils consist of about 70 m of effusive sedimentary rocks, the top third being tuffs, tuff sandstones, and tuff breccias, and the remainder being alternating fine-grained sandstones, argillites, and siltstones, of gray, greenish, pink, and black colors. The beds overlie 800 m of tuff lavas and tuff breccias and are overlain by 200 m of-tuff breccias. Fossil leaves are abundant in the lower half of the beds in all lithologic types, but the vertebrates are confined to about 1 m of adjoining layers of fine-grained gray to pink sandstone, and almost black argillite. The fossils consist of complete impressions of skeletons, which will yield much anatomical information. Two genera are represented, the most abundant referrable to the Central European form Discosauriscus. The other is related to the European Leptoverpeton but may be new. These specimens permit correlation of the Sarytaypan deposits with Lower Permian' bedsgqn Czechoslovakia and Germany. Larval forms are by far the most abundant, but the presence of adults affords a reliable comparison of growth stages. New and detailed information of the development of the spinal column will also be forthcoming from further study of the growth stages. Presence of gills in the larvae reaffirms the persistence of an aquatic larval stage in the morphologically reptile-like Seymouriamorpha. — N. Hotton III.     

Socio-economic geography in the U.S.S.R.

A major field of research since the 1920s has been methods and theories of economic regionalization. The territorial-production complex is now recognized as a key developmental tool within the framework of economic-planning regions. Recently, there has been a more marked growth of study into problems of natural-resource development, social progress and change in the U.S.S.R. as well as into the spatial structure of other nations, particularly other socialist countries and non-socialist developing countries.     

Distribution of crinoidal remains in the Upper Cretaceous of the U.S.S.R.

A list of all Upper Cretaceous sea-lilies known from the U.S.S.R. is given. Their stratigraphic and geographic distributions are discussed. Three paleogeographic subprovinces, the south-eastern, the northern and the south-western, can be distinguished in the Mediterranean paleobiogeographic province of the U.S.S.R. based on the development and distribution of the Upper Cretaceous crinoids.     

Development of geological research in U.S.S.R Academy of Sciences and U.S.S.R. Ministry of Geology and Mineral Reserves

On October 12, 1962, a joint session of the Presidium of the U.S.S.R. Academy of Sciences and the Collegium of the U.S.S.R. Ministry of Geology and Mineral Reserves adopted a resolution “On the present state of the geological sciences in the U.S.S.R. Academy of Sciences and the U. S. S. R. Ministry of Geology and Mineral Reserves and their prospects for the future.” Important contributions of Russian geologists are acknowledged, but attention is drawn to many shortcomings. Future goals of geological study and work are given in detail. Twenty-one lines of research to be concentrated on are given, covering all phases of geology, geophysics, and geochemistry. In discussing the failings of the geological profession in Russia, it is of interest to note the following comment: “Geological research in other countries is still insufficiently studied and applied, and we are not making adequate use of geologic information from abroad.” The list of the Russian geologists' shortcomings sounds vaguely familiar. —J. R. Hayes     

Thermal waters in the U.S.S.R.

A very interesting and informative paper on widespread occurrence of a thermal hydrosphere. Geothermal power uses are discussed. Distribution of heated waters, some up to 150° C is discussed in considerable detail, especially with reference to possible power utilization of the geothermal energy. Seven hydrothermal regions of the U.S.S.R. are discussed and delineated. Chemical quality of waters is referred to. There is a summary listing of locations in the U.S.S.R. where thermal waters could be utilized for generation of electric power. — B. N. Cooper.
