若干热液铀、金矿床稀土元素地球化学行为对比及其成因解释

通过对若干热液铀、金矿床稀土元素地球化学的研究,指出铀矿床中矿石具有相对围岩稀土总量高,富重稀土,稀土配分曲线高的特征;金矿床中矿石具有相对围岩稀土总量低,富轻稀土,稀土配分曲线低的特征。造成这种差异的原因,主要是金、铀、稀土元素之间的地球化学性质不同,以及在热液活动中迁移、沉淀方式的差异造成的。     

海底热液系统高温流体的稀土元素组成及其控制因素

研究稀土元素在流体中的地球化学行为及其控制因素,对利用稀土示踪与流体有关的地球化学过程具有重要意义。海底高温流体稀土组成研究表明,不同背景、岩性热液系统喷口流体的稀土含量差别较大,与海水之间可达几个数量级,但配分模式却非常类似,即普遍具有LREE富集、高的正Eu异常特征。流体的稀土组成与岩石或矿物的蚀变程度、结构构造有关,同时受流体的温压、pH值、Eh值、络合介质种类等因素的影响,其配分模式是流体循环、迁移过程中络合、吸附、矿物沉淀等不同因素共同作用而再次调整的结果。正Eu异常作为高温流体的特征标志,可以用来示踪与高温流体有关的地球化学作用过程,同时Y/Ho比值、负Ce异常可以用来示踪与流体/海水混合有关的化学过程。     

热液铀成矿作用中稀土元素地球化学研究综述

全面总结了我国主要热液铀矿床类型及其产铀地质体的稀土元素(REE)地球化学特征,指出REE的研究不但有助于阐明产铀岩体(岩石)的成因,而且可以有效地追溯铀的来源。与围岩相比,铀矿石通常具有稀土元素总量(∑REE)偏高,重稀土元素(HREE)富集、轻重稀土元素分馏强烈,并具有明显的铕负异常等特征。REE和铀在热液中主要呈碳酸盐、氟化物和磷酸盐的络合物形式搬运,在适宜的条件下又共同沉淀。热液铀矿床中的REE主要来自矿源岩(以燕山期岩浆岩及古生代地层为主),并通过成矿前和成矿期的热液蚀变作用进入古矿溶液。最后强调,加强热液铀矿床的REE地球化学研究不仅具有重要的理论意义,而且可以指导找矿和勘探。

本文以新疆库布苏金矿北矿带为研究对象,讨论了库布苏金矿床北矿带元素活动特征,成矿及伴生元素、主量元素、微量元素、稀土元素的质量迁移规律;根据稀土元素的质量迁移、地球化学特征,初步探讨了成矿流体的环境条件和来源问题;并依据元素迁移地球化学图研究了库布苏北矿带105勘探线剖面的元素质量迁移程度和范围。研究结果表明,赋矿闪长玢岩脉及围岩的元素发生明显的带入带出作用,元素迁移活动规律明显,成矿阶段发生明显带入有Au、As、Bi、Ag、Sb、K2O、Si O2,说明引起闪长玢岩脉和接触带围岩蚀变的流体中富含Au、As、K2O、Si O2等,导致这些带入元素向矿体迁移富集;发生明显带出的有Ba、Sr、Cu、Mg O、Na2O、Fe2O3、Ca O,说明Ba、Sr、Mg O、Na2O等受热液蚀变作用随流体迁出。矿区岩脉的稀土元素质量变化显著,发生明显的带入带出,岩脉交代蚀变前后的轻重稀土分馏均明显,蚀变后的岩脉轻重稀土分馏程度有减小趋势。赋矿闪长玢岩脉稀土元素配分曲线右倾,轻稀土富集,轻重稀土分馏明显,Eu强烈负异常,Ce弱负异常,说明库布苏金矿成矿流体条件应为较高温度和还原环境。从围岩与脉岩中元素的迁移程度和迁移范围可见,带入的成矿指示元素有As、W、Sb、Bi,带出的成矿指示元素有Mg、Na。

沃溪金-锑-钨矿床的稀土元素地球化学组成良好地反映了成矿作用的条件和过程,并为示踪矿床成因提供了有用的信息.以流体包裹体为代表的成矿溶液,以较高的稀土总量、显著的轻稀土富集和缺乏明显的铕异常为特征,代表了一种通过在碎屑沉积物柱中循环而萃取矿质的演化的海水热液.矿石相对于成矿流体(母液)富集重稀土而轻微亏损铕,反映了矿石沉淀过程中来自于海水的稀土元素掺合.同一矿层内由下往上,重稀土相对富集的程度逐渐增大而稀土总量则逐渐降低,表明随着热液化学沉淀作用的进行,海水掺合的影响逐渐增强.矿石的稀土元素组成,无论在分布模式还是在轻重稀土之间的分馏程度上,均与其他许多 Sedex型多金属矿床十分相似,暗示了这些矿床具有相似的成因机制.稀土元素地球化学特征支持矿床同生沉积成因的观点.

稀土元素的某些地球化学行为及对热液铀成矿的指示意义

通过对热液铀矿床稀土元素的研究,发现岩浆热液矿床、变质热液矿床及地下水热液矿床中铀的矿化作用,伴随有稀土元素,特别是重稀土元素的富集现象,主要是二者的迁移形式相同,富集条件类似。铀主要以碳酸铀酰络合物的形式迁移,CO_2是主要成分。迁移形式相同的铀、重稀土元素在合适的物理化学条件下,因络合物分解而共同沉淀富集,故重稀土的富集现象是热液铀成矿良好的指示。

Geochemistry of Rare Earth Elements in the Ocean

This work briefly outlines modern ideas on geochemistry of rare earth elements (REE) in the ocean. Sources of REE and chemical properties of these elements, which govern their migration ability in natural processes, are considered. The REE behavior in the river water–seawater mixing zone is analyzed. The fractionation of dissolved and suspended REE in oceanic water in both aerobic and anaerobic conditions is also considered. It is shown that the variability of REE composition in pelagic sediments reflects the fractionation of these elements in the oceanic water as a consequence of material differentiation in the ocean. The REE distribution in terrigenous, authigenic, hydrothermal, and biogenic constituents of sediments, such as clay, bone debris, barite, phillipsite, Fe–Mn oxyhydroxides (ferromanganese nodules and micronodules), Fe–Ca hydroxo-phosphate, diatoms, and foraminifers, is considered.     

Hydrothermal Redistribution of Rare—Earth Elements in Pingxiang Dacite,Guangxi

Distribution of the rare-earth elements (REE) in dacite has been studied so as to get a better understanding of the migration behavior of REE during alteration. Both unaltered and altered samples were collected in an unpolluted area of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, southwest China. The REE concentrations were analyzed by ICP-MS. It is concluded that the REE were enriched during dacite alteration in varying degrees. The chondrite-normalized REE patterns of altered samples approximately maintain the characteristics of unaltered samples. However, if we normalize the REE concentrations of altered samples with unaltered dacite, fractionation of REE will appear. The LREE are more enriched than HREE in all altered samples with the LREE possibly precipitated as carbonate minerals. Both positive and negative Eu anomalies exist. Enrichment, immobility and depletion are noticed for the element Lu. Heavy mineral alteration, difference in stability constant between carbonate LREE and HREE complexes, downward migration of weathering fluid and microenvironment change may be responsible for the fractionation of REE in the altered dacite.     

Rare earth element distribution in >400 °C hot hydrothermal fluids from 5°S, MAR: The role of anhydrite in controlling highly variable distribution patterns

Two submarine hydrothermal vent fields at 5°S, Mid-Atlantic Ridge (MAR) - Turtle Pits and Comfortless Cove - emanate vapor-phase fluids at conditions close to the critical point of seawater (407 °C, 298 bars). In this study, the concentration and distribution of rare earth element (REE) and yttrium (Y) has been investigated. Independent of the major element composition, the fluids display a strong temporal variability of their REE + Y concentrations and relative distributions at different time scales of minutes to years. Chondrite-normalized distributions range from common fluid patterns with light REE enrichment relative to the heavy REE, accompanied by positive Eu anomalies (type I), to strongly REE + Y enriched patterns with a concave-downward distribution with a maximum enrichment of Sm and weakly positive or even negative Eu anomalies (type II). The larger the sum of REE, the smaller Ce_CN/Yb_CN and Eu/Eu∗. We also observed a strong variability in fluid flow and changing fluid temperatures, correlating with the compositional variability.As evident by the positive correlation of total REE, Ca, and Sr concentrations in Turtle Pits and Comfortless Cove fluids, precipitation/dissolution of hydrothermal anhydrite controls the variability in REE concentrations and distributions in these fluids and the transformation of one fluid type to the other. The variable distribution of REE can be explained by the accumulation of particulate anhydrite (with concave-downward REE distribution and negative Eu anomaly) into a fluid with common REE distribution (type I), followed by the modification of the REE fluid signature due to dissolution of incorporated anhydrite. A second model, in which the type II fluids represent a primary REE reaction zone fluid pattern, which is variably modified by precipitation of anhydrite, can also explain the observed correlations of total REE, fractionation of LREE/HREE and size of Eu anomaly as well as Ca, Sr. The emanation of such a fluid may be favored in a young hydrothermal system in its high-activity phase with short migration paths and limited exchange with secondary minerals. However, this model is not as well constrained as the other and requires further investigations.The strongly variable REE fluid signature is restricted to the very hot, actively phase-separating hydrothermal systems Turtle Pits and Comfortless Cove at 5°S and has not been observed at the neighboring Red Lion vent field, which continuously emanates 350 °C hot fluid and displays a stable REE distribution (type I).     

深海沉积物中的稀土矿产资源研究进展

近年发现,太平洋和印度洋的深海盆地中存在大量富含稀土的深海沉积物。主要类型为多金属软泥、沸石黏土和远洋黏土,其中的全稀土含量(∑REY,∑REE+Y)为400×10-6~2000×10-6,最高可达6600×10-6,重稀土含量(HREE)已达到或超过中国南方离子吸附型矿床的重稀土品位两倍以上,是潜在的新型稀土资源,具有重要的经济价值。目前不少学者对富稀土的深海沉积物进行了大量地球化学及部分矿物学的工作,认为多金属软泥中的稀土元素多赋存于与海底热液作用有关的铁锰氧化物和氢氧化物中,而沸石黏土和远洋黏土中稀土元素的富集则与磷酸盐的混入密切相关,其稀土元素主要存在于与磷灰石成分相当的生物鱼骨屑中。深海黏土的北美页岩标准化稀土配分模式与海水相似,表明其中的稀土元素主要来自于海水,REY富集成矿可能主要受控于磷灰石早期成岩阶段,期间稀土元素未发生分异。尽管近些年对深海沉积物中的稀土元素研究取得了不少成果,但是,对于沉积物中的稀土富集机制及影响因素等问题仍然需要更加深入的研究。作为稀土资源大国,为了争取我国在国际海底稀土资源竞争中的话语权,维护中国的稀土利益,中国应加紧开展相关的稀土资源勘查和潜力评价。     

REE systematics of fluorides,calcite and siderite in peralkaline plutonic rocks from the Gardar Province,South Greenland

The Gardar failed-rift Province is world-famous for its (per-)alkaline plutonic rocks. Elevated contents of F in the mantle source and F-enrichment in the parental melts have been suggested to account for the peculiarities of the Gardar rocks (e.g. their rare mineralogy, extreme enrichment of HFSE elements, Be or REE in the Ilímaussaq agpaites, and the formation of the unique Ivigtut cryolite deposit). To constrain the formation and chemical evolution of F-bearing melts and fluids, fluorides (fluorite, cryolite, villiaumite, cryolithionite), calcite and siderite from the Ilímaussaq, Motzfeldt and Ivigtut complexes were analysed for their trace element content focusing on the rare earth elements and yttrium (REE).The various generations of fluorite occurring in the granitic Ivigtut, agpaitic Ilímaussaq and miaskitic to agpaitic Motzfeldt intrusions all share a negative Eu anomaly which is attributed to (earlier) feldspar fractionation in the parental alkali basaltic melts. This interpretation is supported by the abundance of anorthositic xenoliths in many Gardar plutonic rocks.The primary magmatic fluorites from Ilímaussaq and Motzfeldt display very similar REE patterns suggesting a formation from closely related parental melts under similar conditions. Hydrothermal fluorites from these intrusions were used to constrain the multiple effects responsible for the incorporation of trace elements into fluorides: temperature dependence, fluid migration/interaction and complexation resulting in REE fractionation. Generally, the REE patterns of Gardar fluorides reflect the evolution and migration of a F/CO₂-rich fluid leading to the formation of fluorite and fluorite/calcite veins. In certain units, this fluid inherited the REE patterns of altered host rocks. In addition, there is evidence of an even younger fluid of high REE abundance which resulted in highly variable REE concentrations (up to three orders of magnitude) within one sample of hydrothermal fluorite.The REE patterns of the granitic Ivigtut intrusion show flat to slightly heavy-REE-enriched patterns characterised by a strong tetrad effect. This effect is interpreted to record extensive fluid–rock interaction in highly fractionated, Si-rich systems.Interestingly, the fluorides appear to record different source REE patterns, as the spatially close Motzfeldt and Ilímaussaq intrusions show strong similarities and contrast with the Ivigtut intrusion located 100 km NE. These variations may be attributed to differences in the tectonic position of the intrusions or mantle heterogeneities.     

离子吸附型稀土找矿及研究新进展

21世纪以来由于稀土资源的战略地位不断提升,全球对稀土的供需变化和价格波动极为关注,并加大了稀土的勘查和开发程度。离子吸附型稀土(iRee)资源因轻重稀土元素配分齐全,且不需要通过矿物分解的方式来分离不同的稀土元素,成为近十多年全球稀土找矿和研究的热点。iRee矿产是我国的优势资源,已有40多年的开采历史,为全球稀土产业尤其是重稀土产业做出了巨大的贡献。近年来,项目组在江西、广西和云南等省区发现了一批矿产地,矿床的分布范围已从我国南方的丘陵地带扩大到高海拔(云南)和高纬度(安徽和浙江)地区,从亚热带气候扩大到热带气候,如越南、缅甸、泰国、马达加斯加及智利等国家。我们的研究继续丰富了iRee成矿“八多两高一深”的认识,即：多类型、多岩性、多期次、多层位、多模式、多标志、多因继承、多相复合,高海拔、高纬度及大深度,新矿床的发现也不断为此认识提供实例。同时,本文对亚热带和热带地区的花岗岩风化壳、华南不同岩性(花岗岩、火山岩和浅变质火山 沉积岩)以及不同稀土配分类型(LREE和HREE型)的iRee矿床进行了对比研究。目前,国内的iRee矿床无论从规模和品位,还是母岩的多样性和稀土配分的全面性都优于国外的。然而,我国长期仍无法摆脱矿山及周边环境污染和优势资源过度消耗的现状。今后,寻找经济价值大的iRee矿床是找矿的重要方向。     

火山-侵入杂岩带的成岩-成矿专属性

成岩成矿关系问题,特别是成矿作用与岩浆活动的专属性问题,一直是矿床学研究中的重要课题。粤东地区热液脉状锡、钨（多金属）矿床产于中生代花岗质火山岩、次火山岩和侵入岩组成的火山侵入杂岩带中,成岩年龄与成矿年龄一致,但矿床地质、矿床矿物流体包裹体和同位素地球化学没有相对标准来区分这些来源于岩浆作用不同阶段、不同产出状态岩浆岩的成矿物质特征,使得人们对于区内矿床成因的认识不一。文中运用稀土元素地球化学方法,着重探讨和对比了矿床矿石、蚀变岩石及与成矿有关的岩浆岩的稀土元素特征和配分型式,并进一步根据在不同压力条件下Ｃｌ－在熔体和热液间的分配系数实验数据和不同压力条件下热液与相应熔体平衡时的稀土元素分配系数实验结果,分别计算了厚婆坳锡矿床和莲花山钨矿床与矿区有关岩浆岩熔体平衡的热液中的稀土元素浓度并制出配分型式,再与矿床矿石及矿石矿物稀土元素配分型式比较,从而确定成矿与侵入阶段的花岗岩岩浆活动关系密切。区内矿床为岩浆热液矿床。研究结果表明,稀土元素作为热液流体来源的示踪剂能有效地确定火山侵入杂岩带的成岩成矿专属性。
