吉林东南部晚中生代中酸性火山作用成因的地球化学制约

详细的主、微量元素和Sr-Nd-Pb同位素研究结果显示,延吉地区晚中生代(早白垩世)中酸性火山岩具有岛弧型微量元素特征(富集轻稀土(LREE)、大离子亲石元素(LILE)和亏损高场强元素(HFSE)),和中等放射成因Sr、Pb及类似于硅质地球的Nd同位素组成(~(87)Sr/~(86)Sr(i)=0.70437～0.70525;~(206)Pb/~(204)Pb(i)=18.19～18.37,~(207)Pb/~(204)Pb(i)=15.54～15.57,~(208)Pb/~(204)Pb(i)=38.13～38.22;ε_(Nd)(t)=-2.75～+1.61)。其Sr-Nd-Pb同位素组成特征类似于区域同期基性火山岩和大兴安岭地区同时代火山岩。这些广泛分布于吉林南部的晚中生代中酸性火山岩是岩石圈地幔来源岩浆经分离结晶或地壳物质混染/AFC过程的产物。吉林省东南部晚中生代不同区域火山岩的Sr-Nd-Pb同位素对比结果显示,辽源-延吉与通化地区分属不同构造单元,其中辽源-延吉一带则为中亚造山带的东段,而通化地区为华北克拉通的一部分,夹皮沟-松江断裂可能是华北克拉通东北缘的边界。     

华北克拉通北部古-中元古代富碱侵入岩的Nd、Sr、Pb同位素地球化学：岩石圈地幔富集的证据

华北克拉通北部古-中元古代富碱侵入岩主要分布在燕辽三叉裂堑系和辽吉拗拉谷中及附近,为一套高碱高钾的基性-中性岩,以正长岩类为主。本文通过开展系统的 Nd、Sr、Pb 同位素研究,发现所有岩体岩石均以高负ε_(Nd)(t)为特征,ε_(Nd)(t)=-3.4～-7.5,平均值为～4.8,这与研究区古-中元古代基性-超基性岩石的 Nd 同位素特征(ε_(Nd)(t)=-4～-8) 一致,与燕辽裂堑系发育的偏碱性火山岩 Nd 同位素特征(ε_(Nd)(t)=-4.3～-8.9)也比较相似,表明它们的物质来源相似,都与富集地幔有关。Sr 同位素初始比值(~(87)St/~(86)Sr)_i比较低,主要变化在0.7028～0.7053之间,平均值为0.7041。钾长石铅同位素组成普遍较低,~(206)Pb/~(204)Pb、~(207)pb/~(204)Pb、~(208)Pb/~(204)Pb 比值变化范围(梁屯-矿洞沟岩体除外)分别为14.500～15.70l、14.887～15.150和34.178～36.537,平均值分别为14.968、14.984和35.057。在ε_(Nd)(t)-ε_(Sr)(t)图解上,所有岩体的投影点均在地幔演化趋势线附近,比较接近 EMI 型富集地幔端员,暗示它们的物质来源与 EMI 型富集地幔有关;钾长石 Pb 同位素模式图也说明这些岩体物质来源与地幔和下地壳有关。通过两端员混合模拟,揭示了岩浆演化过程中存在少量的下地壳物质混染,平均约14%左右。从2.5Ga 左右开始华北克拉通岩石圈地幔的亏损程度逐渐变小,在2.2Ga 左右局部呈现富集性特征,1.85Ga时整个岩石圈地幔已经完全转变为富集性,之后富集程度越来越高。推测早期俯冲携带的壳源物质以及后期地幔流体的交代作用可能是岩石圈地幔逐渐转变为富集性的原因。

新疆阿奇山岩体LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb年龄、Sr—Nd—Pb同位素特征及其成因探讨

本文运用LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb定年法对新疆阿奇山岩体进行了测定,获得年龄为269.5±1.6 Ma～272.1±1.3 Ma,表明阿奇山岩体为晚二叠世。岩石的Sr、Nd、Pb同位素分析表明,该岩体有较低的锶同位素初始比值[n(~(87)Sr)/n(~(86)Sr)]_i(0.7044～0.7055)、正ε_(Nd)(t)值(0.48～3.66)及较为年轻的Nd同位素两阶段模式年龄t_(2DM)~C(741～1090 Ma),表明其源岩与亏损地幔有关,而在Pb同位素n(~(207)Pb)/n(~(204)Pb)—n(~(206)Pb)/n(~(204)Pb)构造模式演化图解中,又显示其物质来源与壳幔相互作用有关。综合岩体岩石地球化学特征、前人研究成果及该区大地构造背景,分析认为阿奇山岩体的形成是地幔柱活动背景下壳幔相互作用过程的产物。阿奇山岩体位于新疆北部,属于中亚造山带的一部分,在晚二叠世,整个新疆北部已经进入后造山阶段,且晚古生代时期板块俯冲已经结束。但后造山岩浆形成必然需要新的动力及热源,而幔源岩浆的底侵不仅可以为后造山岩浆活动提供热源,还提供了大量物源。因此在区域性伸展构造环境下,由于壳幔相互作用强烈,来自深部的地幔柱幔源岩浆底侵,带来的热源诱发较年轻的地壳物质部分熔融,同时有部分幔源物质的混染,从而使阿奇山岩体花岗岩物源具有地幔和地壳双重特征。     

鲁东昆嵛山地区宫家辉长闪长岩成因：岩石地球化学、锆石U-Pb年代学与Hf同位素制约

宫家辉长闪长岩是鲁东昆嵛山地区出露面积最大的基性侵入体。锆石LA-ICP-MS U-Pb定年表明,其侵位于113±2Ma。高MgO含量(Mg~#高达56),Hf同位素组成位于华北克拉通地壳演化线之上,说明其地幔来源的特征。在地球化学特征上,富集K、Rb、Ba、Th、U等大离子亲石元素和轻稀土元素,亏损Nb、Ti、P等高场强元素;I_(Sr)为0.70745～0.70812,ε_(Nd)为～15.9～-12.0,Sr、Nd和Pb同位素组成[(~(206)Pb/~(204)Pb)_i=17.108～17.239]与胶东基性脉岩和胶莱盆地青山组火山岩相似;锆石Hf同位素组成比较均一,ε_(Hf)(t)平均值为-16.7,这些特征都暗示其来源于富集的华北岩石圈地幔。地球化学研究表明宫家辉长闪长岩经历了分离结晶作用,是胶东乃至中国东部岩石圈减薄的产物。     

巴基斯坦雷克迪克斑岩型Cu Au矿集区典型矿床闪长岩Pb、Sr、Nd同位素组成特征及其示踪意义

雷克迪克斑岩型Cu-Au矿集区是巴基斯坦最重要的斑岩型Cu-Au矿产地之一,发育20个斑岩型Cu-Au矿床(点),其中包括世界级的H14、H15矿床。本文在前人研究基础上重新分析探讨了Pb、Sr、Nd同位素的组成特征,计算了铅同位素的H-H单阶段演化模式年龄,以及Pb、Sr、Nd同位素的μ、ω、Th/U、△α、△β、εSr、εNd等重要参数。研究结果表明,雷克迪克矿集区成矿物质主要来源于受岩浆作用控制的壳幔混合物质,是新特提斯洋岩石圈俯冲及再循环或幔源岩浆注入地壳的结果。该矿集区的含矿斑岩可能是在岛弧碰撞造山带演化过程中伴随着特提斯构造域的演化而形成的,属于洋壳俯冲消减和大陆碰撞过程中导致地壳增生加厚的结果,它们与扬子地块具有亲缘关系,属于特提斯构造区,构成了特提斯构造域多岛洋体系的组成部分之一。该矿集区的铅主要为混入了放射性成因Pb的混合铅,具有典型DUPAL异常的特征。其中,异常铅(放射性铅)来源于富含U、Th的上地壳物质,而DUPAL异常可能直接产生于欧亚大陆南缘EMII与DM的混合源区,并以异常铅的形式表现出来。

甘肃北山野马泉岩体同位素地球化学特征

Nd、Sr、Pb同位素研究结果揭示：甘肃北山野马泉岩体第Ⅰ、Ⅱ侵入阶段花岗岩类具有Ⅰ-型花岗岩的特征，(87Sr/86Sr)i=0.708~0.710，εNd=-2.229~-5.866，在207 Pb/204Pb-206Pb/204Pb构造模式图上其投影点落在造山带演化线附近，在εNd-εSr图解中，其投影点落人Ⅰ-型花岗岩类范围内，其成岩物质为壳幔混合来源。第Ⅲ侵人阶段的岩石成因类型为S-型，其(87Sr/86Sr)i=0.7149~0.7358, εNd＝-7.3750~-8.9556。该岩体形成的地球动力学环境是北山陆内碰撞造山带。     

新疆哈尔里克山地区晚石炭世火山作用:锆石U-Pb年代学、元素地球化学及Sr-Nd同位素研究

新疆哈尔里克地区出露大面积的石炭纪火山岩,岩石类型包括玄武岩、安山岩和流纹岩等。然而目前对该套火山岩的形成时间仍缺乏较精确的年代学约束,其成因和构造属性(岛弧/陆内环境)也存在较大分歧。本文选择哈尔里克地区的火山岩剖面进行研究,通过LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb定年获得该套火山岩形成于约302Ma,为晚石炭世火山喷发的产物。地球化学数据表明,基性火山岩为拉斑质玄武岩系列,低Ti/Y(343~406)和Ce/Y(1.5~1.7),具有正ε_(Nd)(t)值(+3.9)和低初始~(87)Sr/~(86)Sr_((i))值(0.7043),表明玄武岩起源于同位素适度亏损的岩石圈上地幔。相对而言,中酸性火山岩则表现出高场强元素(HFSE;Nb、Ta、Ti等)负异常和大离子亲石元素(LILE;LREE、Sr、Ba等)富集的特征,与典型的弧岩浆岩类似,ε_(Nd)(t)和~(87)Sr/~(86)Sr_((i))值分别为+3.3~+6.0和0.7032~0.7046,具有较年轻的Nd模式年龄(t_(DM)=543~797Ma),指示中酸性岩浆源自年轻岛弧基底的重熔。哈尔里克晚石炭世火山岩的形成标志着大洋向大陆环境的转变,是后碰撞伸展转换背景下软流圈物质上涌诱发岩石圈上地幔和年轻下地壳再次熔融的结果。     

庐枞早白垩世火山岩的地球化学特征及其源区意义

从中生代到新生代,华北东部岩石圈地幔发生了减薄以及地球化学性质置换, 而扬子地块东部中生代岩石圈地幔也表现出类似的过程,对中生代火山岩的地球化学研究有助于了解这一变化过程以及发生置换时的时空关系。庐枞火山岩出露于扬子地块东部,为一套包括粗玄岩–玄武粗安岩–粗面岩的富碱橄榄安粗岩系。研究了双庙组基性火山岩,这些岩石富集Rb,K,Sr,Th和轻稀土元素,亏损高场强元素。(87Sr/86Sr)i = 0.7060~0.7063,εNd(t )=-3.9~-6.2,(206Pb/204Pb)i=17.788~18.125,(207Pb/204Pb)i= 15.511~15.546,(208Pb/204Pb)i =37.735~38.184。在喷出地表过程中,火山岩没有受到明显的地壳物质混染,因此元素和同位素组成反映了地幔源区的地球化学特征。 其地幔源区具有同位素富集特征,表明火山岩源区曾受到地壳物质的影响,是富集地幔部分熔融的产物,并经历明显的结晶分异作用。庐枞火山岩的岩浆成分和源区特征反映该地区在晚中生代岩石圈地幔的伸展和软流圈地幔上涌的演化过程。     

Wavelength-dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometric determination of Sc, V, Cr, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Rb, Sr, Y, Zr, Nb, Ba, Pb, and Th in komatiites

Komatiites are mantle-derived ultramafic volcanic rocks. Komatiites have been discovered in several States of India, notably in Karnataka. Studies on the distribution of trace-elements in the komatiites of India are very few. This paper proposes a simple, accurate, precise, rapid, and non-destructive wavelength-dispersive x-ray fluorescence (WDXRF) spectrometric technique for determining Sc, V, Cr, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Rb, Sr, Y, Zr, Nb, Ba, Pb, and Th in komatiites, and discusses the accuracy, precision, limits of detection, x-ray spectral-line interferences, inter-element effects, speed, advantages, and limitations of the technique. The accuracy of the technique is excellent (within 3%) for Sc, V, Cr, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Rb, Sr, Zr, Nb, Ba, Pb, and Th and very good (within 4%) for Y. The precision is also excellent (within 3%) for Sc, V, Cr, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Rb, Sr, Y, Zr, Nb, Ba, Pb, and Th. The limits of detection are: 1 ppm for Sc and V; 2 ppm for Cr, Co, and Ni; 3 ppm for Cu, Zn, Rb, and Sr; 4 ppm for Y and Zr; 6 ppm for Nb; 10 ppm for Ba; 13 ppm for Pb; and 14 ppm for Th. The time taken for determining Sc, V, Cr, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Rb, Sr, Y, Zr, Nb, Ba, Pb, and Th in a batch of 24 samples of komatiites, for a replication of four analyses per sample, by one operator, using a manual WDXRF spectrometer, is only 60 hours.

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.     

Viscous, cohesive, non-Newtonian, depositing, radial slurry flow

Mining induced subsidence can significantly affect mining costs where major surface facilities and natural environment need to be protected. Overburden grout injection is a technology used to control coal mine subsidence by injecting the mine waste material extracted from the coal back into the inter-burden rock during longwall mining. The flowing slurry is here categorised as a nonlinear viscous cohesive (Bingham plastic) fluid. During longwall mining the grout slurry is pumped into the separated beds of the rock mass through a central vertical borehole, which is drilled deep into the inter-burden rock strata above the coal seam. However, a blockage can occur in the injection system when the slurry velocity falls below a certain critical threshold velocity, indicating a material phase change from cohesive-viscous to cohesive-frictional. In situ field injection tests through boreholes have been simulated at a smaller scale at the CSIRO laboratory in Brisbane by pumping the slurry through a radial disk (gap = 4 mm) from its centre. Laboratory experiments indicate a general, nonlinear, cohesive, viscous, frictional model for shear behaviour of the slurry, in which the material shear parameters are functions of the disk radial distance. Complete dimensional and dimensionless analytical solutions have been developed based on an approach related to Bingham–Herschel–Bulkley fluid mechanics. The derived formulae include relations for minimum pump pressure, local pressure and pressure gradient, wall shear stress, volume rate, velocity and velocity gradient. The theoretical results match the experimental measurements. The experiments covered slurries with maximum particle sizes of 0.5 to 2 mm with about 50% being larger than 100 µm. The viscosities at the various solids concentrations were measured with a standard torsion viscometer. This study differs from the previous research in several distinct aspects, namely, consideration of the variable shear parameters rather than fixed values, inclusion of total nonlinear behaviour, and implementation of a friction function to mimic behaviour of the deposited and consolidating stiff slurry, which can cause a significant pressure rise as a result of the increased shear resistance.

Bellechester,Minnesota, USA,lagoon collapses

Bellechester, Minnesota, is a small community of approximately 155 residents located on the county line between Goodhue and Wabasha counties in southeast Minnesota's karst region. Bellechester is served by a 21-year-old wastewater treatment facility (WWTF) consisting of three waste-stabilization ponds. On 28 April 1992 six sinkholes were discovered to have drained cell 2 of the WWTF resulting in the loss of approximately 8.7×10⁶ 1 of partially treated effluent and about 600 m³ of soil into previously undetected subsurface voids of unknown dimensions. In the week following the collapse, approximately 200 water wells located within a 5-km radius of the WWTF were sampled in an after-the-fact, emergency sampling program. Twelve samples with elevated fecal coliform levels, 18 samples with nitrate-nitrogen greater than the 10 mg/1 standard, and no samples with elevated chlorides were found. However, the elevated levels could not be unambiguously attributed to the WWTF collapse. This is the third WWTF to fail by sinkhole collapse in southeast Minnesota since 1974. All three collapsed lagoons have been located in similar geomorphic and stratigraphic settings. However, at least two lagoons have collapsed in the adjacent area in northeast Iowa, and these lagoons are located at different stratigraphic positions. Twenty-two WWTFs constructed in southeast Minnesota's karst region in the last 25 years have been identified as subject to potential sinkhole collapse. An unknown but significant number of manure storage lagoons, flood control structures, etc., have also been constructed in the karst region and are at risk. Public agencies are beginning to develop plans to deal with the risk associated with existing and future waste lagoons in this environment. The critical hydrogeologic parameters that can be used to prioritize the risk of collapse at existing facilities include: (1) the lithology of the first bedrock beneath each lagoon, (2) the thickness of surficial materials between the lagoon and the bedrock surface, (3) the presence and construction of liners (seepage rate), and (4) the proximity to existing sinkholes.     

Mercury,arsenic, antimony,and selenium contents of sediment from the Kuskokwim River,Bethel, Alaska,USA

The Kuskokwim River at Bethel, Alaska, drains a major mercury-antimony metallogenic province in its upper reaches and tributaries. Bethel (population 4000) is situated on the Kuskokwim floodplain and also draws its water supply from wells located in river-deposited sediment. A boring through overbank and floodplain sediment has provided material to establish a baseline datum for sediment-hosted heavy metals. Mercury (total), arsenic, antimony, and selenium contents were determined; aluminum was also determined and used as normalizing factor. The contents of the heavy metals were relatively constant with depth and do not reflect any potential enrichment from upstream contaminant sources.     

滇东南花岗岩与锡、银、铜、铅、锌多金属矿床的成因关系

滇东南锡、银、铅、锌多金属矿床主要分布在个旧、白牛厂、都龙3个矿区,而滇东南较大的3个花岗岩体又分别出露在3个矿区或附近.花岗岩体均形成于燕山晚期,岩石化学、矿物成分相似,富含锡、银、铅、锌、钨、铜等成矿元素.矿床主金属元素组合与岩体之间的距离由远而近出现由锡、钨、(铍、铌、钽)→锡、钨、(铁)、铜、铟→锡、铅、锌、银、铟、(锑)有规律的变化.花岗岩浆是成矿物质来源和成矿热源.岩浆侵入初期使上覆地层隆起产生背斜(凹陷部位成向斜);同时使地层产生一系列裂隙、压性断层或层间断裂;岩浆侵入晚期,这些断层再次活动,表现为张性,岩浆产生的含矿热液沿由其活动所造成的断裂迁移、充填、交代、沉淀而形成矿床.     

岩石密度和超高压岩石折返速率

在常温常压条件下对中国大陆科学钻CCSD主孔100-3000米岩心样品进行了密度测量,建立了密度连续剖面,并界定了不同超高压岩石的密度值。通过对比高温高压物性实验资料,岩石密度随着退变程度增强而降低,榴辉岩密度变化序列为3.52g/cm3→3.49g/cm3→3.07g/cm3→2.93g/cm3。超高压长英质岩石密度变化序列为3.00g/cm→2.80g/cm3→2.65g/cm3。上述实验资料是讨论不同折返阶段岩石所受浮力的基础,为研究折返速率大小提供了基本参数。本文通过折返板块运动平衡时,上浮力与粘滞力平衡这一关系式,定量研究了大陆俯冲板块的折返速率,认为密度差产生上浮力从而引起折返,温度对板块折返速率的影响最为显著;密度差大小、折返角度、折返板块大小对折返速率也有直接的影响。定量模拟分析表明,在温度高于850℃时,板块的折返速率可以超过100mm/a;当温度降至700℃时,折返速率则低于1.5mm/a。作者认为在折返早期,温度较高,板块快速折返至60-70km榴辉岩相深度;随着传导散热,温度降低,板块以较慢的速率折返至中下地壳。折返速率的估算表明,浮力是板块折返第一阶段(从>100km深部折返至<40km的中下地壳)的主要驱动力。
