中国西南思茅地体中部白垩纪古地磁结果及陆内地壳变形特征

对我国西南地区思茅地体中部巍山和五印地区白垩纪地层进行了详细的岩石磁学和古地磁研究,获得了两个地区的高温剩磁分量并通过了褶皱检验.巍山剖面特征剩磁方向为Ds=64.3°,Is=48.5°,k=54.6,α95=4.7°;五印剖面特征剩磁方向为Ds=15.4°,Is=44.8°,k=212.0,α95=4.6°.通过思茅地体磁偏角变化与兰坪—思茅褶皱带构造线迹变化的相关性分析,确定思茅地体内部差异性旋转变形受控于思茅地体弧形构造带的形成和演化.通过青藏高原东南缘走滑断裂带活动年代分析,确定兰坪—思茅褶皱带蜂腰构造部位形成于两期构造事件,早期构造变形与东喜马拉雅构造结北北东向挤压缩进有关,后期构造变形与川滇微地块发生顺时针旋转时南向挤出运动有关.以华南板块稳定区白垩纪古地磁极为参考极,计算得出巍山和五印相对于华南板块分别发生了10.5°±6.0°和3.8°±4.9°的南向运移量.通过选取思茅地体内部构造形态较稳定的巍山和普洱地区白垩纪古地磁极为参考极,计算得出五印相对于巍山和普洱分别发生了3.4°±5.0°和3.1°±5.4°的北向纬向运移,表明五印和和巍山之间自印亚碰撞以来经历了较大规模的北向地壳缩短变形作用.     

拉萨地块中部晚白垩世火山岩Ar-Ar年代学和古地磁研究结果及其构造意义

为进一步确定拉萨地块白垩纪-古近纪的古地理位置,我们对青藏高原拉萨地块措勤地区林子宗火山岩18个采点进行了古地磁研究.结果表明高温(高场)特征剩磁分量主要为亚铁磁性的磁铁矿所携带,特征剩磁分量在95%置信水平下通过了褶皱检验. 倾斜校正后采点平均的特征剩磁方向为D/I=16.2°/17.7°, α₉₅=5.6°,对应古地磁极位置为63.1°N,224.6°E,A₉₅=5.1°. 另一方面,Ar-Ar年代学结果表明采样剖面的林子宗火山岩形成年龄为~99-93 Ma, 与拉萨地块林周盆地的林子宗群火山岩的形成年龄存在较大差异.由此我们得到晚白垩世拉萨地块中部措勤地区的古纬度为8.5°±6.9°N,与林周盆地古近纪林子宗群典中组和年波组所揭示出的古纬度相当,进一步表明亚洲大陆最南缘的拉萨地块在晚白垩世-古近世期间位于北半球~10°N的低纬度地区.结合最新的特提斯海相地层古地磁结果,晚白垩世-古近世拉萨地块的古地理位置限定了印度与欧亚大陆的初始碰撞时间不晚于60.5 Ma;~93 Ma以来,拉萨地块和单一刚性欧亚大陆之间存在~1900 km的构造缩短.     

川滇地块西部差异性旋转的构造意义:青藏高原东南缘白垩纪红层古地磁学新证据

印度—欧亚板块碰撞以来青藏高原内部及其周缘地区经历了复杂的构造演化,复杂构造变形区的复合构造使得古地磁的数据解释究竟代表区域的构造旋转还是只能反映局部的构造变形一直是备受关注的问题.本文通过采集川滇地块西缘渔泡江断裂东侧三岔河地区白垩纪红层古地磁样品,揭示采样区差异性旋转并探讨川滇地块西部自中新世以来的构造演化规律.前人的地质调查表明川滇地块渔泡江断裂东侧上白垩统赵家店组地层发育倾伏褶皱.三岔河剖面以三岔河镇为界分为南北两段,三岔河南段剖面高温剩磁分量平均方向在倾斜校正后Ds=29.3°,Is=45.7°,ks=54.3,α95=6.6°,倾伏地层产状校正后Ds=30.6°,Is=46.6°,ks=69.3,α95=5.8°;而三岔河北侧剖面高温剩磁分量平均方向在倾斜校正后Ds=350.4°,Is=42.1°,ks=69.4,α95=9.2°,倾伏地层产状校正后Ds=347.4°,Is=41.9°,ks=96.6,α95=7.8°;两组高温剩磁分量均通过了褶皱检验,表明其获得于褶皱形成之前.相对于东亚稳定区80Ma古地磁极,三岔河南侧剖面发生了20.5°±4.8°的顺时针构造旋转量,与楚雄盆地核部之间不存在差异性旋转;但三岔河镇以北剖面却发生了22.7°±6.6°的逆时针旋转.综合分析川滇地块内部的古地磁数据表明自中新世以来川滇地块南部楚雄盆地经历了约20°的顺时针构造旋转,而三岔河镇北侧经历了约20°逆时针旋转.进一步分析表明三岔河北侧剖面相对于南侧剖面经历了约40°的逆时针旋转,可能由于研究区的滑脱构造导致岩石薄弱层拆离滑脱所引起.     

河北滦平盆地早白垩世古地磁结果的构造意义

通过河北滦平盆地早白垩世16个采点95块样品的古地磁研究,获得其特征剩磁方向为:D=347.8°, I=50.4°α₉₅=7.1°;相应的极位置为:经度=346.3°E,纬度=76.1°N,dp=6.4°,dm=9.5°,古纬度=31.1°.通过对比华北地块中鄂尔多斯盆地的早白垩世古地磁结果,表明滦平盆地自早白垩世以来相对于鄂尔多斯盆地发生了30.7°±9.8°的逆时针旋转,而纬度方向上没有明显的变化,这一构造旋转可能与区域断裂活动和构造滑脱,以及库拉-太平洋板块自早由垩世以来朝NNW-NWW方向的挤压,与中国东部大陆的碰撞有关.

对采自四川北部旺苍-南江地区(32.14°N,106.17°E)中寒武世陡坡寺组12个采点的120块定向标本进行的系统岩石磁学和古地磁学研究表明:紫红色细砂岩的剩磁方向表现为单分量(D=29.3°, I=-19.4°,k=283.7,α₉₅=7.3°),所对应的古地磁极位置(39.5°N,247.3°E,置信椭圆为:dp=4.0°,dm=7.6°)与扬子地块晚二叠世极位置基本重合.红色泥岩的剩磁方向由两个组分携带,其中低温剩磁分量在地理坐标下与现代地磁场方向基本一致;高温剩磁分量(D=129.1°, I=23.6°,k=44.6,α₉₅=7.8°)可通过褶皱检验,对应的古地磁极位置为39.5°S,185.1°E,(置信椭圆为:dp=4.4°,dm=8.3°),我们认为扬子地块在中寒武世处在南半球低纬度地区.     

川北旺苍-南江地区晚侏罗世古地磁学研究与真极移的探讨

本文对四川北部旺苍-南江地区晚侏罗世蓬莱镇组进行了较为详细的岩石磁学和古地磁学研究．逐步热退磁揭示出蓬莱镇组岩石所携带的剩磁由两个分量组成,其中低温组分（次生剩磁）的解阻温度低于420℃;高温组分（特征分量）可通过褶皱及倒转检验,由此求得磁偏角和磁倾角分别为18．4°和29．3°（构造校正后）,95％置信回（α95）为8．5°,对应的古地磁极经纬度分别为236．4°E和66．6°N．基于古地磁结果,并结合已有的地质证据,提出根据古地磁学确定的扬子地块晚侏罗世古纬度偏低的原因可能是由真极移造成的．     

苏格兰当巴（Dunbar）下石炭统的古地磁研究——用烘烤效应解决岩石剩磁年龄问题

苏格兰当巴（Dunbar）下石炭统含钙砂岩组12个采样点的热退磁结果,显示一致的稳定磁化方向:偏角D=196°,倾角 I=-45°,α₉₅=4.3。侵入其中的一条20m厚的石炭系岩脉,其6个采样点的热退磁结果显示不同的磁化方向:D=195°,I=15°,α₉₅=10.7。 本文研究烘烤效应,论证了上述两个磁化方向均为原生。这与现存的对不列颠群岛该时期古地磁方向的看法矛盾。其原因可能是:1.以往的数据解释不可靠,特别是重磁化问题;2.构造原因;3.持续相当时间的异常地磁场。 对比纬度相似的太平洋夏威夷群岛熔岩流的“点记录”,本文针对当巴提出一种磁化模式:各有关古地磁磁化成分可能均产生于同一地质时代. 火成岩的尖晶石相方向,最可能为原生.它在古地磁分析中应给以较大权重.

塔里木盆地中生代古地磁研究及构造意义

采用主成分分析方法、线性谱法和LINFIND方法，分离了塔里木盆地中生代岩石的多磁成分，并采用岩石磁学和褶皱检验等方法研究了剩磁稳定性．对于塔里木盆地三叠系、侏罗系的岩石其携磁矿物以磁铁矿为主，具有两组次生磁性成分和一组原生剩磁成分；原生剩磁成分的解阻温度为550℃，而两组次生成分的解阻温度分别为175－250℃和300一375℃，可能为生物剩磁和次生氧化形成的剩磁．白垩纪岩石的携磁矿物以亦铁矿为主，同样具有两组次生剩磁和一组原生剩磁；两组次生剩磁分别为现代地磁场的粘滞剩磁和岩石变形过程中形成的构造剩磁．塔里木盆地中生代早期极移不明显，处于一个相对平静时期；侏罗纪至白垩纪盆地则主要表现有一定规模的南移，伴有顺时针旋转运动。盆地白垩纪的古纬度与现在纬度相比，仍存在17°－20°左右的纬度等，这一纬度差是通过白垩纪以后塔里木板块的北向漂移和板块北部造山带的压缩及边界的大型走滑作用来缩小；另外，压实作用也可能是由垩纪磁倾角变低的一个原因。     

海原地区早白垩世古地磁结果及其构造意义

通过海原地区早白垩世13个采点的古地磁研究，揭示了一组高温特征剩磁分量.在5%置信度下通过倒转检验，采样剖面获得的下白垩统李洼峡组和和尚铺组的磁性地层结果，显示多个正、反极性带，与早白垩世早期的极性特征相似，说明这组高温分量很可能代表岩石形成时的原生剩磁，其特征剩磁方向为：偏角D=12.7°，倾角I=50.2°，α5=6.3°；相应的极位置为：经度φ=218.0°E，纬度λ=78.2°N，dp=5.7°，dm=8.4°，古纬度ρ=31.0°.通过对比华北地块鄂尔多斯盆地的早白垩世古地磁结果，表明采样地区自早白垩世以来相对于华北鄂尔多斯盆地未发生明显的构造旋转和纬度方向上的位移.这说明海原断裂东南段并未发生大规模的左旋走滑运动，印度-欧亚板块碰撞挤压作用对青藏高原东北部海原地区的影响已经很小.     

海南岛早白垩世红层磁组构和古地磁新结果

华北主要构造单元及边界带现今水平形变与运动机制

根据华北地区12，15，16，1年高精度GPS观测结果，给出了华北地区各主要构造单元间两个时段(12-16年和16-1年)的相对水平运动.其结果为：①相对于鄂尔多斯单元，阴山单元的运动为(0-2.3)±1.6mm/a，方向约0°-W13°N，属于相对较弱左旋走滑运动.②相对于鄂尔多斯单元，晋冀鲁豫单元的运动为(4.4±1.0)-(2.5±1.5)mm/a，方向约为S50°-30°E，属于右旋型拉张运动；相对于燕山单元，则为(4.7±1.4)-(4.3±1.4)mm/a，方向约为E37°-°S，属拉张型左旋走滑运动.③相对于晋冀鲁豫单元，胶辽鲁苏单元12-16年的运动显示了顺扭的运动特征；16-1年的运动为(2.6±1.5)mm/a，保持顺扭趋势，方向约为W11°S，总体上属于北张南压的右旋走滑运动.分析表明：现今地壳构造活动与现代地壳构造运动性质基本一致，但量值有所差别；地壳运动存在着数年尺度的较明显的波动性，这可能是大陆地壳运动的一个主要特征；16-1年的运动不同于12-16年，主要表现为鄂尔多斯单元北移态势增强，山西断陷带和燕山构造带两侧拉张性有所减弱，可能是张北地震后应力调整与华北地区边界力耦合共同作用的结果.     

Palaeomagnetic study of the Kepezdağ and Yamadağ volcanic complexes, central Turkey: Neogene tectonic escape and block definition in the central-east Anatolides

The Anatolian accretionary collage between Afro-Arabia and Eurasia is currently subject to two tectonic regimes. Ongoing slip of Arabia relative to Africa along the Dead Sea Fault Zone in the east is extruding crustal blocks away from the indenter by a combination of strike-slip and rotation. This zone of compression gives way to an extensional province in western Turkey, which also includes the eastern sector of Aegean Province. Although it is now well established that rotational deformation throughout Anatolia is distributed and differential, the sizes of the blocks involved are poorly understood. As a contribution towards evaluating this issue in central-east Turkey, we report palaeomagnetic study of the mid-Miocene Kepezda? and Yamada? volcanic complexes in central-south Anatolia (38–39.5°N, 37.5–39°E). A distributed sample through the Yamada? complex identifies eruption during an interval of multiple geomagnetic field reversals (40 normal, 36 reversed, 8 intermediate sites) with a selected mean defined by 63 sites of D/I = 335.4/51.1° (α₉₅ = 4.4°). The smaller Kepezda? complex (8 reversed, 4 normal and 1 intermediate site) yields a comparable mean direction from 12 sites of 338.7/49.8° (α₉₅ = 14.1°). In the context of a range of radiometric age evidence, two thick normal polarity zones within the Yamada? succession probably correlate with zones C5ACn and C5ADn of the Geomagnetic Polarity Time Scale and imply that the bulk of the volcanic activity took place between ∼15 and 13.5 Ma. Comparison of the palaeomagnetic results with the adjoining major plate indenters shows that the Yamada? complex has rotated CCW by 29.3 ± 5.2° relative to Eurasia; the much smaller dataset from the Kepezda? complex indicates a comparable CCW rotation of 26.0 ± 11.8° with respect to Eurasia. The Arabian Indenter has also been rotating CCW since mid Miocene times, and the block incorporating these two volcanic complexes north of the East Anatolian Fault Zone (EAFZ) is determined to have rotated 18.2 ± 6.0° CCW relative to the northern perimeter of Arabia. Comparison with data to the north identifies quasi-uniform rotation across a ∼200 km wide block extending from the Central Anatolian Fault Zone in the northwest to close to the East Anatolian transform fault zone in the south east. Although absence of suitable younger rocks does not permit the timing of this rotation to be determined in the study area, analogies with results from the Sivas Basin suggest that it is young, and followed establishment of the major transform faults. Rotation has evidently taken place around bounding arcuate faults and accompanied westward expulsion as the accretionary collage north of Arabia has been subject to ongoing post-collisional indentation.     

Sedimentary records of the late Early Cretaceous compressional setting in the South China block: A case study of the Xingning Basin,Guangdong Province

Recently, some scholars have proposed that the South China Block (SCB) was controlled by a compressive tectonic regime in the middle–late Early Cretaceous, challenging the belief that the SCB was under an extensional setting during the Cretaceous. The Early Cretaceous tectonic setting constraint in the SCB can offer vital insight to clarify the Mesozoic subduction history of the Paleo-Pacific. Therefore, to determine the SCB tectonic regime during the Early Cretaceous, this study investigated sedimentary rocks from the Lower Cretaceous Heshui Formation in the Xingning Basin, a foreland basin located in the southeastern SCB. Provenance analysis was performed using sandstone modal analysis, sandstone geochemical characteristics, and detrital zircon geochronology. Based on the results, we discussed basin sediment sources and the SCB tectonic regime during the Early Cretaceous. The results showed that the maximum Heshui Formation depositional age was 103 Ma ± 1.6 Ma in the Early Cretaceous Albian. Detrital framework modes and geochemical characteristics of sandstone indicated that Heshui Formation's source rocks were granites and sedimentary rocks. The detrital zircon U–Pb ages could be classified into two major and four subordinate age populations. The Wuyi Terrane to the north and southeast coastal regions to the east were the primary potential Heshui Formation source areas. However, the lower and upper sandstones are different in the peak ages, ~437 and ~146 to 104 Ma, respectively, indicating that the major source area shifted from the Wuyi Terrane to the southeastern coastal regions during the late Early Cretaceous. The sandstone modal analysis results indicated that the source area comprised mainly collisional–orogenic material. The SCB was under a compressive tectonic regime during the late Early Cretaceous and this compression action continued until at least 103 Ma ± 1.6 Ma.     

The Lhasa Terrane: Record of a microcontinent and its histories of drift and growth

The Lhasa Terrane in southern Tibet has long been accepted as the last geological block accreted to Eurasia before its collision with the northward drifting Indian continent in the Cenozoic, but its lithospheric architecture, drift and growth histories and the nature of its northern suture with Eurasia via the Qiangtang Terrane remain enigmatic. Using zircon in situ U–Pb and Lu–Hf isotopic and bulk-rock geochemical data of Mesozoic–Early Tertiary magmatic rocks sampled along four north–south traverses across the Lhasa Terrane, we show that the Lhasa Terrane has ancient basement rocks of Proterozoic and Archean ages (up to 2870 Ma) in its centre with younger and juvenile crust (Phanerozoic) accreted towards its both northern and southern edges. This finding proves that the central Lhasa subterrane was once a microcontinent. This continent has survived from its long journey across the Paleo-Tethyan Ocean basins and has grown at the edges through magmatism resulting from oceanic lithosphere subduction towards beneath it during its journey and subsequent collisions with the Qiangtang Terrane to the north and with the Indian continent to the south. Zircon Hf isotope data indicate significant mantle source contributions to the generation of these granitoid rocks (e.g., ~ 50–90%, 0–70%, and 30–100% to the Mesozoic magmatism in the southern, central, and northern Lhasa subterranes, respectively). We suggest that much of the Mesozoic magmatism in the Lhasa Terrane may be associated with the southward Bangong–Nujiang Tethyan seafloor subduction beneath the Lhasa Terrane, which likely began in the Middle Permian (or earlier) and ceased in the late Early Cretaceous, and that the significant changes of zircon ε_Hf(t) at ~ 113 and ~ 52 Ma record tectonomagmatic activities as a result of slab break-off and related mantle melting events following the Qiangtang–Lhasa amalgamation and India–Lhasa amalgamation, respectively. These results manifest the efficacy of zircons as a chronometer (U–Pb dating) and a geochemical tracer (Hf isotopes) in understanding the origin and histories of lithospheric plates and in revealing the tectonic evolution of old orogenies in the context of plate tectonics.

Amount of clockwise rotation of Southwest Japan — fan shape opening of the southwestern part of the Japan Sea

Paleomagnetic measurements have been carried out on welded tuffs ranging in age between 58 Ma and 112 Ma from Yamaguchi and Go¯river areas in the central part of Southwest Japan. The new data, together with those of younger igneous rocks published previously, define the change of paleomagnetic field direction during the late Mesozoic/ Cenozoic period for Southwest Japan. The paleomagnetic direction from this area has pointed 56 ± 3° clockwise from the expected field direction estimated from APWP (apparent polar wandering path) of the whole of Eurasia during the period between 100 and 20 Ma. In comparison with the expected one from the eastern margin of Eurasia (Korea, China, Siberia), the Cretaceous field direction of Southwest Japan shows the clockwise deflection by 44–49°. These results establish that while the eastern margin of Eurasia, including Southwest Japan, was rotated more or less with respect to the main part of Eurasia during last 100 Ma, Southwest Japan was rotated clockwise through more than 40° with respect to the eastern margin of Eurasia since 20 Ma. The large amount of rotation for Southwest Japan implies that it is rotated by an opening of the southwestern part of the Japan Sea, which widens northeastward (fan shape opening). The tectonic feature of Southwest Japan and the Japan Sea is analogous to that of Corso-Sardinia and the Ligurian Sea in the Mediterranean, indicating that the fan shape opening is a specific feature of the rifting of the continental sliver at the continental rim.
