北祁连造山带晚奥陶世-泥盆纪构造演化: 碎屑锆石年代学证据

北祁连造山带晚奥陶世-泥盆纪处于同造山的构造背景.上奥陶统-泥盆系沿造山带不对称分布.上奥陶统-泥盆系碎屑锆石年代学特征显示, 造山带东段武威一带上奥陶统底部沉积物主要来自北祁连岛弧, 南部中祁连地块和北部华北板块的沉积物在上奥陶统上部才出现, 根据同沉积锆石年龄将中祁连地块和华北板块在东段初始碰撞的时间限定在470~450 Ma之间; 中祁连地块和华北板块的物质在造山带西段肃南一带被保存在下志留统, 地层中也有大量来自早古生代北祁连岛弧和同碰撞花岗岩的物质, 暗示造山带西段的碰撞时间在早志留世.而造山带东段下志留统中却仅有来自中祁连地块和华北板块的物质, 缺乏代表北祁连岛弧的早古生代碎屑锆石年龄, 对比上奥陶统-下志留统岩相分布和碎屑锆石年代学特征, 北祁连造山带的碰撞具有"东早西晚"的"斜向碰撞、不规则边缘碰撞"的特征, 而这种碰撞方式导致中祁连地块在造山带东段仰冲到北祁连岛弧之上, 阻止北祁连岛弧为盆地提供沉积物; 泥盆纪早期, 北祁连岛弧年龄在东段下、中泥盆统中重新出现, 结合志留系和泥盆系在造山带东、西两段的分布和变形特征推断, 泥盆纪早期北祁连造山带具有"东强西弱"的不均一隆升特征, 这种差异隆升特征是由"东早西晚"的"斜向碰撞、不规则边缘碰撞"引起的, 它导致了北祁连岛弧在造山带东段被重新剥露出地表, 同时来自早期中、上志留统以及同碰撞花岗岩的物质也被汇入盆地.河西走廊盆地性质经历了弧后盆地-弧后残留洋盆-前陆盆地的转换过程.

北祁连造山带志留纪岩相古地理研究

奥陶纪—泥盆纪时期,受加里东构造活动的影响,北祁连洋盆经历了俯冲消亡至造山的复杂转换。其中,志留纪是记录了盆山转换的重要大地构造过渡阶段,然而北祁连造山带在该时期的盆地性质一直存在争议。本文对北祁连地区志留系沉积地层开展了详细的野外地质调查及室内测试分析,通过岩性、沉积构造和古生物化石组合等方面的研究,共识别出潮坪相、浅海陆棚相及半深海相三种沉积相类型。此外,基于前人的研究成果和本研究的新资料,编制了全新的北祁连地区志留纪沉积构造格架、沉积盆地类型及空间配置关系图。在此基础上,通过区域地层对比,以及岩相古地理编图研究,重建了北祁连造山带志留纪沉积盆地充填序列,并采用造山带岩相古地理编图方法编制了全新的研究区志留纪岩相古地理图。

The chad basin: An active intra-continental basin

Well over one hundred separate graben formed in association with ocean opening can be recognized around the shores of the Atlantic Ocean. The graben are linked forming an elaborate network of triple-rift systems. Some rifts developed to form ocean but many failed. The stratigraphie and structural history of these rift structures is varied and helps to illuminate the processes that operate at continental rupture. Rifting has been commonly accompanied by basaltic vulcanism and rapid accumulation of several kilometers of sediment. Horsts within the graben strongly influence early sediment distribution. Generally, rift faulting ceases about the time of onset of normal marine sedimentation but there are a few exceptions and some graben formed at ocean opening have influenced sediment distribution more than 100 m.y. later. Although tensional structures predominate strike-slip and compressional structures have developed locally in the graben. The rivers bringing the largest amounts of sediment into the Atlantic during the last 150 m.y. have prograded along failed rift arms formed at continental rupture. In some cases their deltas have come to lie on oceanic crust.     

东海盆地中、新生代盆架结构与构造演化

Depositional evolution of the Bowen basin

The Bowen Basin is a structurally complex area occupied by a thick sequence of Permian‐Triassic volcanics and sediments whose depositional history is also complex and in many places has controlled the subsequent structural development. The depositional evolution is portrayed by isopach maps of eight regional rock units recognised in the Bowen Basin sequence. This sequence was deposited in a series of downwarps and on adjacent, less rapidly subsiding shelf areas. This paper discusses the shape, distribution, and persistence in time of the downwarps and shelf areas and indicates the relationship between them and the present structural elements of the Bowen Basin. The relationship of the depositional history of the Bowen Basin to the problems of exploration for oil and gas in the Basin is also discussed.     

Cenozoic Climates of the Great basin

The Great Basin in the western United States consists of almost level desert basins and alternating parallel mountain ranges. It has sparse, mostly interior, drainage and a few permanent lakes. The climate is arid and semiarid. Fairly large areas are true deserts. The main Cenozoic climatic changes have been: 1. a general cooling during the Tertiary and the early Pleistocene, 2. a progressive drying from the early Miocene into the Pleistocene as a consequence of rise of the Sierra Nevada and the Cascades, and 3. Pleistocene fluctuations between cold-moist and warm-dry ages.The Ice Age left known records of three or four major glaciations, the last of which had two maxima. The glaciations were relatively extensive on the eastern flank of the Sierra Nevada and just east of the Great Basin, and glaciers existed on several ranges in northeastern Nevada. Each glacial was accompanied by a pluvial, which culminated just after the glacial maximum. The pluvial lakes were largest on Lat. 40°. The histories of the huge lakes Bonneville and Lahontan are incompletely known. During the Mankato-Tioga-Provo'glacio-pluvial maximum the temperature in the Great Basin seems to have been only 2.5–3 C° lower, and the precipitation on the surface of Lake Lahontan (Dendritic Lake) twice as large as now.The Neothermal (Postglacial, Postpluvial), the equivalent of the interglacials, is with long-distance correlation in view subdivided on the basis of the major temperature changes into the Ana-,.Alti-, and Medithermal ages. However, in the dry country of the Great Basin the changes in moisture are more apparent and important. The Altithermal was distinctly drier than the present, and nearly all the basins went dry. About 2000 B.C. several basins began again to contain lakes which remained permanent through some acute brief droughts. These recentmodern lakes attained very moderate maxima some time before Christ, while the glaciers in the adjacent mountains probably reached their greatest extent since the Anathermal during the last centuries.

Biogeochemistry of the Madeira river basin

A biogeochemical characterization of the Madeira river basin has been made to evaluate the local and global effects of possible alterations in the ecosystem caused by recent intensive occupation in Rondonia state. During the period April 1983—January 1986, sampling was made both by land and river along the tributaries and main channel of the Madeira river. The parameters analysed lead to a detailed study of the physicochemical quality of the waters of the basin and their relationship with the local geology, associated with the transport of solid material and the hydrological behavior of the ecosystem.Penman's method adapted to tropical rainforest conditions was used to evaluate the potential evapotranspiration for the basin. Estimated potential evapotranspiration was 1420 mm/y, 77% due to the energy balance. Real evapotranspiration was 94% of the estimated potential and the main residence time of the rain water in the basin was 2 months. The isotopic behavior of Hydrogen and Oxygen in the river waters of the region was typical of great rivers, the values being more positive during the dry season and more negative during the rainy season. An isotopic gradient of ¹⁸O 0.038 ()/100 km, was established from Porto Velho station to the estuary, which was considered low when compared with the value of 0.063 ()/100 km, obtained for the Amazon river.In general, the waters of the tributaries were poor in dissolved ion species when compared with the main channel of the Madeira river. Seasonal variation in the transport of suspended sediment kept the same pattern, greater transport being observed on rising water than during high water. A transport of 2.85 million tons per day was observed in the Madeira river near the mouth.     

On the mechanics of basin formation in the Pannonian basin: Inferences from analogue and numerical modelling

We present the results of a thrust fault reactivation study that has been carried out using analogue (sandbox) and numerical modelling techniques. The basement of the Pannonian basin is built up of Cretaceous nappe piles. Reactivation of these compressional structures and connected weakness zones is one of the prime agents governing Miocene formation and Quaternary deformation of the basin system. However, reactivation on thrust fault planes (average dip of ca. 30°) in normal or transtensional stress regimes is a problematic process in terms of rock mechanics. The aim of the investigation was to analyse how the different stress regimes (extension or strike-slip), and the geometrical as well as the mechanical parameters (dip and strike of the faults, frictional coefficients) effect the reactivation potential of pre-existing faults.

Results of analogue modelling predict that thrust fault reactivation under pure extension is possible for fault dip angle larger than 45° with normal friction value (sand on sand) of the fault plane. By making the fault plane weaker, reactivation is possible down to 35° dip angle. These values are confirmed by the results of numerical modelling. Reactivation in transtensional manner can occur in a broad range of fault dip angle (from 35° to 20°) and strike angle (from 30° to 5° with respect to the direction of compression) when keeping the maximum horizontal stress magnitude approximately three times bigger than the vertical or the minimum horizontal stress values.

Our research focussed on two selected study areas in the Pannonian basin system: the Danube basin and the Derecske trough in its western and eastern part, respectively. Their Miocene tectonic evolution and their fault reactivation pattern show considerable differences. The dominance of pure extension in the Danube basin vs. strike-slip faulting (transtension) in the Derecske trough is interpreted as a consequence of their different geodynamic position in the evolving Pannonian basin system. In addition, orientation of the pre-existing thrust fault systems with respect to the Early to Middle Miocene paleostress fields had a major influence on reactivation kinematics.

As part of the collapsing east Alpine orogen, the area of the Danube basin was characterised by elevated topography and increased crustal thickness during the onset of rifting in the Pannonian basin. Consequently, an excess of gravitational potential energy resulted in extension (σ_v > σ_H) during Early Miocene basin formation. By the time topography and related crustal thickness variation relaxed (Middle Miocene), the stress field had rotated and the minimum horizontal stress axes (σ_h) became perpendicular to the main strike of the thrusts. The high topography and the rotation of σ_h could induce nearly pure extension (dip-slip faulting) along the pre-existing low-angle thrusts. On the contrary, the Derecske trough was situated near the Carpathian subduction belt, with lower crustal thickness and no pronounced topography. This resulted in much lower σ_v value than in the Danube basin. Moreover, the proximity of the retreating subduction slab provided low values of σ_h and the oblique orientation of the paleostress fields with respect to the master faults of the trough. This led to the dominance of strike-slip faulting in combination with extension and basin subsidence (transtension).     

Noyon-Gurvantes continental basin

Many continental basins were formed when the most of the South Mongolian territoty is modulated to continents from Late Carboniferous (Tectonic map of Mongolia, 1978). One of these basins is Noyon-Gurvantes continental sedimentary basin (NGCB). (Fig. 1) NGCB comprises on the territory Gurvantes and Noyon sums of Umnugovi aimag (province), which are Noyon mountain range, its mountain side, foot of the mountain, Nariinsukhait and Argun hills geographically. The purpose of our study was to determine the geological age of coal bearing sediments of the coal mines near or at Nariin Sukhait, and to study their structure and moreover enhance the chance to discover new deposits.
