新疆东部博格达山北侧石炭系碎屑锆石U-Pb定年及其地质意义

本文应用LA-ICPMS锆石U-Pb定年方法,对博格达山北侧原石炭系沙雷赛尔克组及沙玛尔沙依组开展了碎屑锆石U-Pb年代学研究。测年结果显示沙雷赛尔克组碎屑锆石表面年龄值分布较宽(298～2215Ma),主要集中在298～344Ma,主峰值年龄为305Ma,次要峰值为501～538Ma,并见有一粒1331Ma及两粒2146Ma、2215Ma的碎屑锆石;沙玛尔沙依组碎屑锆石表面年龄分布较窄(280～523Ma)且相对集中(299～358Ma),主峰值年龄为345Ma,次要峰值年龄为428～450Ma及507～523Ma。通过样品岩石学特征、碎屑锆石Th、U含量、CL组构特征及区域地质资料分析,初步获得以下认识:①博格达山北侧原定义为石炭纪地层的沉积时代应为早石炭世—早二叠世,其中奇尔古斯套群时代为早石炭世晚期—晚石炭世早期,居里得能组—扬布拉克组时代为晚石炭世中期及晚期,沙玛尔沙依组时代为早二叠世早期,缪林托凯陶山组沉积时代及其与沙玛尔沙依组的关系尚有待于进一步研究;②沙雷赛尔克组及沙玛尔沙依组砂岩主要来自于准噶尔盆地,主要物质供给区为区内略早于或与其同时代沉积的石炭纪地层;③博格达晚古生代大陆裂谷在早石炭世已形成,晚石炭世开始衰退,并发生两次弱造山作用,中二叠世夏子街期最终闭合。     

新疆博格达山晚古生代地层的形成时代、物源及其演化:碎屑锆石U-Pb年代学证据

新疆博格达山主体由石炭系海相火山一沉积岩系组成,以发育两期双峰式火山岩,但不发育花岗岩为特征,对其晚古生代地层时代的划分和演化争议较大。本文重点对博格达山北部两个晚古生代砂岩进行了碎屑锆石U-Pb年代学分析,重新标定博格达山地区晚古生代地层的形成时代;利用物源区的演化,约束晚古生代构造演化。测年结果显示博格达上亚群砂岩的碎屑锆石表面年龄值分布范围较宽,主峰年龄为343~284 Ma(80%),次峰年龄为386~375 Ma(3%)、503~441Ma(7%)和871~735 Ma(10%);芦草沟组砂岩的碎屑锆石表面年龄值非常集中,主峰年龄为358~279 Ma(97%),次峰年龄为257~251 Ma(约3%)。博格达山中部原石炭纪博格达群上亚群与西部和南部下芨芨槽群相当,应属于早二叠世,中部一东部的石炭一二叠纪界线应在博格达下亚群一上亚群或居里得能组一沙雷塞尔克组之间的不整合面之中。博格达北部地区晚二叠世以南侧天山物源区供给为主,反映出晚古生代期间博格达山地区至少存在晚石炭世末和中二叠世两期构造隆升。结合区域火山岩与火山碎屑岩的研究,认为博格达山地区晚古生代主要经历4个演化阶段:早石炭世弧后盆地裂解阶段、晚石炭世碰撞拼贴阶段、早二叠世碰撞后伸展阶段、中-晚二叠世再次隆升到稳定阶段。     

小兴安岭西北部石炭纪地层火山岩的锆石LA-ICP-MSU-Pb年代学及其地质意义

小兴安岭西北部晚古生代火山-沉积地层时代的厘定对讨论区域构造演化具有重要意义。本文对该区晚古生代火山岩和粉砂岩进行了锆石LA-ICP-MSU-Pb年代学研究。结果表明,原晚石炭世-早二叠世宝力高庙组、早二叠世大石寨组和晚二叠世五道岭组火山岩均形成于石炭纪,锆石U-Pb年龄集中于353～352Ma和307～306Ma。早石炭世洪湖吐河组上部粉砂岩的碎屑锆石具有两组206Pb/238U谐和年龄,其加权平均年龄分别为385.2±6Ma和353.0±3.6Ma,前者与区域中晚泥盆世钙碱性火山岩的时代相近,后者与早石炭世火山岩的年龄一致,表明沉积物源主要来自中晚泥盆世-早石炭世火山岩,沉积上限为杜内期。新的年代学资料及地层学资料表明,区域早石炭世火山活动(353～352Ma)伴有洪湖吐河组海相沉积,晚石炭世火山活动(307～306Ma)则伴有宝力高庙组陆相沉积。综合区域上普遍缺失巴什基尔阶,认为大兴安岭北部-小兴安岭西北部地区早石炭世晚期发生的海-陆转变与额尔古纳-兴安地块和松嫩地块的碰撞拼合密切相关,早石炭世火山岩可能形成于碰撞前的俯冲环境,晚石炭世火山岩形成于碰撞后的伸展背景。     

大兴安岭中段晚石炭世-早二叠世砂岩碎屑锆石LA-ICP-MS U-Pb年龄及地质意义

位于中亚造山带东段的中国东北地区由众多微地块拼合而成,但各地块间的拼贴时间、位置和演化过程一直是地学界争议的关键科学问题.针对大兴安岭中段蘑菇气地区晚石炭世-早二叠世宝力高庙组砂岩开展了详细的岩相学、碎屑锆石LA-ICP-MS U-Pb年代学研究,分析了砂岩母岩区大地构造背景,进而约束兴安地块与松辽地块的汇聚过程.研究结果表明,砂岩具有成分成熟度低、近源快速沉积特点,碎屑骨架成分显示了火成岩区物源供给.锆石颗粒CL图像、Th/U值及REE特征均指示了锆石为岩浆成因.测试样品中锆石U-Pb年龄主要集中在282~360 Ma（n=134）,峰值年龄约为290 Ma、305 Ma、325 Ma和350 Ma.结合区域内前人的研究成果,暗示了其物源可能来自蘑菇气-嫩江-黑河一线的晚古生代俯冲-同碰撞期岩浆弧;样品中最年轻的锆石U-Pb年龄分别为282±4 Ma（样品15MG10）和287±4 Ma（样品15MG11）,可以限定砂岩的沉积下限为早二叠世.对比索伦-蘑菇气地区晚石炭世-早三叠世砂岩的碎屑锆石年龄组成,发现兴安地块内晚石炭世-早二叠世碎屑组分与松辽地块内中二叠世-早三叠世碎屑组分基本相同,说明兴安地块与松辽地块已于晚石炭世前沿贺根山-黑河缝合带完成拼合.      

内蒙古西乌旗罕乌拉地区下二叠统寿山沟组碎屑锆石LA-ICP-MS U-Pb年龄及其地质意义

中亚造山带南缘二叠纪的构造背景一直存在争议。以内蒙古西乌旗罕乌拉地区发育的寿山沟组为研究对象,开展了野外地质、岩石学、碎屑锆石LA-ICP-MS U-Pb年龄研究。2个样品锆石阴极发光图像和Th/U值指示,锆石为岩浆成因锆石。103颗碎屑锆石年龄测试结果显示,年龄信息可划分为5组:285~328Ma,峰期年龄302Ma;338~361Ma;455~490Ma;757Ma;1278Ma、2380Ma。最年轻的年龄为285Ma,结合侵入其中的花岗岩同位素年龄,指示西乌旗罕乌拉地区寿山沟组沉积时限介于285~280Ma之间,主体沉积时代应为早二叠世Sakmarian期—Artinskian期。寿山沟组碎屑锆石反映出近源、快速沉积的特点,沉积物源中含有较多的火山碎屑物,可能代表弧后盆地沉积,为早二叠世古亚洲洋闭合前洋壳俯冲消减作用的沉积响应。结合区域资料,寿山沟组碎屑锆石的年龄对应于东北地区的变质基底及其后的构造岩浆事件,物源区物质主要来自于苏尼特左旗—锡林浩特—西乌旗一带早石炭世末—晚石炭世岩浆弧及贺根山—东乌旗一带,并进一步限制了华北与西伯利亚两大板块的缝合线应位于寿山沟组发育地区的南部,即索伦缝合带,拼合时代最可能为晚二叠世—早三叠世。     

北京周口店太平山南坡晚古生代碎屑锆石U-Pb年代学及其大地构造意义

为了探讨华北板块北缘晚古生代的隆升历史和古亚洲洋的闭合过程,利用碎屑岩的锆石U-Pb年代学、Hf同位素和锆石微量元素组成对北京周口店太平山南坡晚石炭世-早二叠世地层进行物源分析,并判定源区的大地构造背景.5件样品的碎屑锆石U-Pb年龄主要分布在3个时代:显生宙（285~425 Ma）、古元古代（1 700~2 450 Ma）和新太古代（2 500~2 747 Ma）.前寒武纪的锆石年龄主要集中在2.5 Ga和1.8 Ga,与华北克拉通的前寒武纪基底岩石相似.显生宙的锆石年龄主要集中在308~297 Ma,最年轻的峰值年龄在299~291 Ma,在误差范围内与地层沉积年龄相似,因此这些最年轻的碎屑锆石属于早二叠世同沉积锆石.29颗同沉积锆石的Hf同位素结果显示,原始176Hf/177Hf比值介于0.282 021~0.282 318,ε_Hf（t）值介于-20.1~-9.6.显生宙锆石的年龄谱特征以及Hf同位素组成与内蒙古隆起同期的岩浆锆石特征十分相似,因此显生宙碎屑锆石可能来源于内蒙古隆起,并伴随有少量来自北侧兴蒙造山带南部的早古生代岛弧碎屑的输入.二叠纪同沉积锆石的微量元素特征表明锆石结晶的岩浆源区具有大陆岛弧的构造属性.上述数据表明:（1）华北板块北缘在晚石炭世-早二叠世为活动大陆边缘;（2）晚古生代古亚洲洋向华北北缘的持续俯冲消减导致了内蒙古隆起的快速隆升;（3）古亚洲洋闭合的时间应晚于早二叠世.      

新疆东部哈尔里克山南麓石炭纪砂岩碎屑锆石SHRIMP U-Pb定年及其地质意义

碎屑锆石研究是探讨其碎屑物质来源、源区特征、沉积时代和形成环境的一种有效途径。笔者通过对新疆东部哈尔里克山南麓石炭纪砂岩的47粒碎屑锆石SHRIMPU-Pb定年研究,获得的年龄为388～949Ma,其主体为418～482Ma。结合锆石的矿物学特征、CL图像特点以及哈尔里克山区域地质资料,得出如下结论:(1)哈尔里克山南麓所研究的砂岩中最年轻的碎屑锆石年龄是(388±9)Ma,这意味着这套地层不老于中泥盆世,结合区域地质资料,笔者认为这套沉积岩应是在晚石炭世沉积的;(2)所研究的砂岩的碎屑物质主要来源于哈尔里克山早古生代与岛弧演化相关的岩浆岩;(3)哈尔里克山经历了中奥陶世—早志留世与康古尔塔格洋壳残片代表的洋岩石圈板块向北俯冲有关的岛弧、石炭纪弧后盆地和晚石炭世末期弧后隆起的构造演化历史;晚石炭世末期弧后隆起是导致哈尔里克山与博格达山现今地质差异的主要原因。     

内蒙古林西地区上二叠统-中三叠统沉积序列的碎屑锆石记录及对古亚洲洋（东段）闭合时间的制约

晚二叠世-中三叠世在中亚造山带东段构造演化过程中是重要的转折期,它涉及古亚洲洋的最终闭合、沉积环境剧变等重大地质问题,而上二叠统林西组和中-下三叠统幸福之路组沉积序列记录了相应的构造演化过程。笔者对内蒙古东南部林西地区出露良好的林西组与幸福之路组,采取砂岩样品进行碎屑锆石U-Pb年代学和Lu-Hf同位素研究,解析年代学、沉积物源等信息。研究显示,被认为是三叠系标志层的陆相红色砂泥岩始现于晚二叠世。幸福之路组细砾岩样品最年轻碎屑锆石年龄为241Ma,从而将地层沉积时代上延至中三叠世后期。它与下伏林西组为整合接触关系,但在幸福之路组下部地层中发现微角度不整合,沉积时代存在间断(早、中三叠世之间)。林西组砂岩碎屑锆石U-Pb年龄组成分为4组:254~336Ma、372~528Ma、669~1000Ma和1300~2534Ma,εHf(t)值变化范围较大(-25.6~+17.2)。幸福之路组砂岩碎屑锆石U-Pb年龄集中于241~278Ma,εHf(t)值=+8.6~+16.5,其石炭纪和古元古代碎屑锆石少量。对比研究显示,林西组砂岩除兴蒙造山带物源外,还含有大量华北克拉通物源。与之相反,幸福之路组砂岩物源主要来自林西周边岩浆岩。结合区域地质特征,笔者认为古亚洲洋闭合于晚石炭世之前,晚古生代末是残余陆表浅海环境。内蒙古东南部地区在晚石炭世以来,表现为西伯利亚和华北克拉通联为一体后的陆内裂陷沉积活动及岩浆活动。     

冈底斯中部松多岩组形成时代及物源:来自碎屑锆石U-Pb年代学证据

冈底斯中部广泛发育的松多岩组因缺少化石依据,其沉积时代一直存在争议,严重制约了对冈底斯古生代构造演化的认识.在详细野外地质调查基础上,利用LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb同位素定年对松多岩组中变质砂岩进行了锆石U-Pb同位素测定,获得变质砂岩中最小碎屑锆石年龄值为316 Ma,时代为晚石炭世,代表了松多岩组形成时代的下限.通过碎屑锆石年龄示踪和区域对比研究,松多岩组物源很可能来自拉萨地块内部(南拉萨地块和北拉萨地块),可能是松多古特提斯洋初始洋盆的沉积记录.研究区松多岩组沉积时代下限的厘定,进一步完善了该区晚古生代地层系统,对冈瓦纳大陆北缘晚石炭世－早二叠世岩相古地理研究具有重要意义.      

内蒙古科尔沁右翼中旗晚古生代碎屑锆石定年及其意义

对科尔沁右翼中旗地区晚古生代地层进行碎屑锆石U-Pb定年研究。样品130909-01为凝灰质砂岩,130910-15为岩屑石英砂岩。碎屑锆石年龄可分为4组,由新到老依次为:252~278Ma、286~359Ma、381~462Ma和500Ma之前。碎屑锆石的最小年龄(256.5±1.7Ma)限定了地层沉积下限为晚二叠世。样品中出现大量残留锆石,记录了前寒武纪基底、早古生代岛弧岩浆岩和石炭纪—二叠纪岩浆活动事件。     

Influences of the unsaturated,saturated, and riparian zones on the transport of nitrate near the Merced River,California, USA

Transport and transformation of nitrate was evaluated along a 1-km groundwater transect from an almond orchard to the Merced River, California, USA, within an irrigated agricultural setting. As indicated by measurements of pore-water nitrate and modeling using the root zone water quality model, about 63% of the applied nitrogen was transported through a 6.5-m unsaturated zone. Transport times from recharge locations to the edge of a riparian zone ranged from approximately 6 months to greater than 100 years. This allowed for partial denitrification in horizons having mildly reducing conditions, and essentially no denitrification in horizons with oxidizing conditions. Transport times across a 50–100-m-wide riparian zone of less than a year to over 6 years and more strongly reducing conditions resulted in greater rates of denitrification. Isotopic measurements and concentrations of excess N₂ in water were indicative of denitrification with the highest rates below the Merced River. Discharge of water and nitrate into the river was dependent on gradients driven by irrigation or river stage. The results suggest that the assimilative capacity for nitrate of the groundwater system, and particularly the riverbed, is limiting the nitrate load to the Merced River in the study area.     

Isotopic systematics of He,Ar, S,Cu, Ni,Re, Os,Pb, U,Sm, Nd,Rb, Sr,Lu, and Hf in the rocks and ores of the Norilsk deposits

This paper reports the first results of a study of 11 isotope systems (³He/⁴He, ⁴⁰Ar/³⁶Ar, ³⁴S/³²S, ⁶⁵Cu/⁶³Cu, ⁶²Ni/⁶⁰Ni, ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr, ¹⁴³Nd/¹⁴⁴Nd, ^206–208Pb/²⁰⁴Pb, Hf–Nd, U–Pb, and Re–Os) in the rocks and ores of the Cu–Ni–PGE deposits of the Norilsk ore district. Almost all the results were obtained at the Center of Isotopic Research of the Karpinskii All-Russia Research Institute of Geology. The use of a number of independent genetic isotopic signatures and comprehensive isotopic knowledge provided a methodic basis for the interpretation of approximately 5000 isotopic analyses of various elements. The presence of materials from two sources, crust and mantle, was detected in the composition of the rocks and ores. The contribution of the crustal source is especially significant in the paleofluids (gas–liquid microinclusions) of the ore-forming medium. Crustal solutions were probably a transport medium during ore formation. Air argon is dominant in the ores, which indicates a connection between the paleofluids and the atmosphere. This suggests intense groundwater circulation during the crystallization of ore minerals. The age of the rocks and ores of the Norilsk deposits was determined. The stage of orebody formation is restricted to a narrow age interval of 250 ± 10 Ma. An isotopic criterion was proposed for the ore-bearing potential of mafic intrusions in the Norilsk–Taimyr region. It includes several interrelated isotopic ratios of various elements: He, Ar, S, and others.     

山西五台山区滹沱群变质玄武岩岩石学、地球化学特征及其成因意义

在野外地质调查的基础上,选取滹沱群豆村亚群底部四集庄组玄武岩、顶部青石村组玄武岩和东冶亚群中下部河边村组玄武岩,进行岩石学和地球化学研究。分析结果表明：玄武岩主量元素高TiO2、TFeO,低MgO,具有演化的基性岩浆的特征。稀土元素含量相对较高,具有弱—中等程度的轻稀土元素富集,中等程度的轻重稀土元素分异,轻微的Eu异常;玄武岩中Cr、Ni含量变化较大,但与Mg#具有很好的正相关性。微量元素配分图解中具有明显的Sr负异常,部分样品具有Nb、Ta和Ti负异常,无Zr、Hf负异常,与岛弧火山岩不同;同时Nb、Ta无分异,Zr/Hf值较高,具有板内玄武岩浆的特征。综合分析认为,滹沱群玄武岩可能形成于板内裂谷环境。在岩浆上升过程中发生橄榄石与尖晶石的分离结晶作用,同时不同程度地受到地壳的混染。     

扬子北缘马元铅锌矿床闪锌矿微量元素及S-Pb-He-Ar-C同位素地球化学研究

马元铅锌矿床是近年扬子陆块北缘铅锌找矿的新突破。矿体呈层状、似层状产于碑坝隆起翼部震旦系灯影组角砾状白云岩层间构造带中,围岩蚀变很弱。矿石中硫化物以闪锌矿、方铅矿为主,中粗粒晶质结构,充填于白云岩角砾间。闪锌矿富集Cd、Ge、Ag,贫In、Tl、Se,Ga/In为6~132,Ge/In多1000,成矿温度以中-低温为主。金属硫化物ε~(34)S值相对集中,为12.9‰~19.4‰,平均为17.4‰,来自于海相硫酸盐的还原。铅同位素组成稳定,~(206)Pb/~(204)Pb为17.858~17.918:~(207)Pb/~(204)Pb为15.603~15.694;~(208)Pb/~(204)Pb为37.756~38.046,具有造山带和上地壳铅的特征,震旦系可能提供了金属成矿物质。闪锌矿中流体包裹体的~3He/~4He为0.03Ra~1.05Ra,~(40)Ar/~(36)Ar为326.1~765.1,~(38)Ar/~(36)Ar为0.183~0.204,表明成矿流体主要为地壳流体和饱和大气水(大气降水或海水)的混合。闪锌矿内流体包裹体挥发分δ~(13)C_(CH_4)值为-36.01‰~-28.80‰,δ~(13)C_(C_2H_6)值为-27.72‰~-22.44‰,δ~(13)C_(CO_2)值为-23.24‰~-9.68‰,表明有机流体参与了成矿作用。石英、方解石的H-O同位素结果表明具有海水和有机水混合的特征。可见,成矿流体具有两种流体混合的特征,一为蒸发海水与围岩反应所形成的盆地卤水,二为有机流体。推测矿区可能存在一个古油气藏,由于TSR生成一高硫气藏,为区内还原性有机流体的主要来源。当富含Pb、Zn等成矿物质的成矿流体运移至富含CH_4和H_2S的还原性流体的矿区角砾岩带时,两种流体混合,Pb、Zn等遇到H_2S发生反应而沉淀成矿,并伴生热液白云石等,形成了马元铅锌矿床。综上所述,我们认为马元矿床属MVT型铅锌矿床。

深港西部通道填海区地下水铜、钒、铊、镉、钨迁移的实验研究

填海工程使滨海地区的地下水物理化学条件改变,导致该区域地下水中重金属浓度升高。本文以深港西部通道填海区为例,采用实验室模拟填海条件的办法,初步探讨了影响填海区地下水重金属迁移的关键因素。模拟实验结果表明,填海区地下水中钨元素含量升高与地下水淡化、淤泥氧化过程以及填料风化有关;铜元素含量升高则与淤泥氧化过程以及填料风化有关;钒元素含量升高与地下水淡化和淤泥氧化过程有关,而其他元素含量升高则主要与填料风化释放有关。     

Pressure Increases, the Formation of Chromite Seams, and the Development of the Ultramafic Series in the Stillwater Complex, Montana

This paper explores the hypothesis that chromite seams in theStillwater Complex formed in response to periodic increasesin total pressure in the chamber. Total pressure increased becauseof the positive V of nucleation of CO₂ bubbles in the melt andtheir subsequent rise through the magma chamber, during whichthe bubbles increased in volume by a factor of 4–6. Byanalogy with the pressure changes in the summit chambers ofKilauea and Krafla volcanoes, the maximum variation was 0•2–0•25kbar, or 5–10% of the total pressure in the Stillwaterchamber. An evaluation of the likelihood of fountaining andmixing of a new, primitive liquid that entered the chamber withthe somewhat more evolved liquid already in the chamber is basedupon calculations using observed and inferred velocities andflow rates of basaltic magmas moving through volcanic fissures.The calculations indicate that hot, dense magma would have oozed,rather than fountained into the chamber, and early mixing ofthe new and residual magmas that could have resulted in chromitecrystallizing alone did not take place. Mixing was an important process in the Stillwater magma chamber,however. After the new magma in the chamber underwent {smalltilde}5% fractional crystallization, its composition, temperature,and density approached those of the overlying liquid in thechamber and the liquids then mixed. If this process occurredmany times over the course of the development of the Ultramaficseries, a thick column of magma with orthopyroxene on its liquiduswould have been the result. Thus, the sequence of multiple injections,fractionation, and mixing with previously fractionated magmacould have been the mechanism that produced the thick bronzitecumulate layer (the Bronzitite zone) above the cyclic units.     

Composition,formation conditions,and genesis of the Talatui gold deposit,the Eastern Transbaikal Region,Russia

The mineral composition of the Talatui gold deposit has been studied with modern methods. Previously unknown minerals (ilmenite, siegenite, glaucodot, wittichenite, matildite, hessite, pilsenite, zircon, tremolite, cummingtonite, hercynite, and goethite) have been identified in the ore. A high Re content has been detected in molybdenite. The spatiotemporal separation of Au and Ag is caused by different mineral species of these elements and their diachronous precipitation during the ore-forming process. Gold crystallized along with early mineral assemblages, beginning from virtually pure gold (the fineness is 996). Silver precipitated largely at the end of the process as hessite (Ag₂Te) and matildite (AgBiS₂). The temperature of ore deposition varied from 610 to 145°C, the pressure was 3370–110 bar, and the salt concentration ranged from 56.3 to 0.4 wt % NaCl equiv. The heterogeneous state (boiling) of fluid at the early stages has been documented. The chemical and isotopic compositions of the fluid testify to its magmatic nature and the participation of meteoric water at late stages in the ore-forming process. Thermodynamic modeling reproduces the main specific features of ore formation, including separation of Au and Ag. A physicochemical model of the gold mineralization in the Darasun ore district has been proposed. On the basis of several attributes, the Talatui deposit has been referred to the prophyry gold-copper economic type.
