冀北赤城榴辉岩的时间序列:来自锆石SHRIMP U-Pb年龄的证据

冀北赤城退变榴辉岩的原岩为兼具洋中脊和岛弧地球化学属性的拉斑玄武岩类,其变质演化经历了早期的榴辉岩相进变质,以及后期的麻粒岩相和角闪岩相退变质等阶段。锆石SHRIMP U-Pb年代学研究表明,退变榴辉岩的原岩形成于438 Ma±,峰值榴辉岩相变质发生在355 Ma±,后期麻粒岩相和角闪岩相退变质年龄则分别为341 Ma±和322 Ma~326 Ma。冀北赤城退变榴辉岩演化时间序列的确定,对探讨华北克拉通北缘中段的大地构造演化具有十分重要的意义。     

北秦岭榴辉岩及相关岩石年代学的进一步确定及其对板片俯冲属性的约束

在岩相学观察和锆石CL图像研究的基础上,利用LA ICP MS原位分析方法,对北秦岭官坡超高压榴辉岩和伴生的石榴石角闪岩(榴闪岩)进行了详细的锆石微区微量元素和U Th Pb同位素分析,在榴辉岩样品中得到变质年龄为(502±11)Ma,原岩结晶年龄>(657±18)Ma;在榴闪岩样品中得到原岩结晶年龄为(791±6)Ma,变质年龄为487~503 Ma,角闪岩相退变质年龄为(366±4)Ma。岩石地球化学研究显示,北秦岭官坡地区的榴闪岩具有低Si(SiO2质量分数为4916%~5078%),高Ti(TiO2质量分数为228%~283%)、富集LREE、LILE和大部分的HFSE元素,不显Nb、Ta负异常的板内玄武岩特征,与北秦岭超高压榴辉岩地球化学特征一致。结合两者的野外产状、岩相学特征、锆石形貌和年代学研究结果,表明本文研究的官坡地区的榴闪岩是超高压榴辉岩在抬升过程中在角闪岩相条件下退变质的产物。综合两者的年代学研究结果,得到北秦岭地区超高压榴辉岩的变质年龄为(502±11)Ma,原岩结晶年龄为(791±6)Ma,角闪岩相退变质年龄为(366±4)Ma。研究得到的(502±11)Ma的榴辉岩相变质年龄与前人得到的该榴辉岩围岩超高压泥质片麻岩的变质年龄(507±38)Ma以及北秦岭松树沟地区的超高压长英质片麻岩的变质年龄485~514 Ma一致,表明它们经历了同期超高压变质作用。而且,榴辉岩(502±11)Ma的变质年龄与其原岩的结晶年龄(791±6)Ma存在近300 Ma的时间间隔,表明原岩具有板内玄武岩性质的北秦岭官坡超高压榴辉岩不可能是秦岭古生代大洋板块深俯冲的产物,而可能是已构造就位的古洋壳或裂谷火山岩在古生代随陆壳一起发生大陆深俯冲作用的产物。     

华北克拉通北缘崇礼—赤城地区的红旗营子(岩)群:一套晚古生代的变质杂岩

分布在华北克拉通北缘中段崇礼—赤城地区的红旗营子(岩)群主要由变质表壳岩、晚古生代的闪长质—石英闪长质片麻岩和古元古代—新太古代的变质岩残片或残块组成。利用SHRIMP和LA-ICPMS法对红旗营子(岩)群变质表壳岩的锆石同位素年代学研究表明,变质表壳岩样品中除大量古元古代—新太古代的锆石年龄信息外,还有许多中元古代—晚古生代的锆石,且均有晚古生代甚至早中生代的多阶段变质作用的记录。这些证据表明红旗营子(岩)群并非早前寒武纪岩石建造,而是一套晚古生代的变质杂岩。红旗营子(岩)群周围侵入体的锆石U-Pb测年表明岩浆作用与变质作用具有较好的相关性,它们与中亚造山带多阶段的俯冲、碰撞造山和后造山伸展事件相关。由于红旗营子杂岩中含有晚古生代退变榴辉岩和变质方辉橄榄岩,这可能意味着华北克拉通北缘的冀北地块在晚古生代早期曾经从华北克拉通上裂开,在中亚造山带古亚洲洋板块俯冲作用的影响下又重新拼合,红旗营子杂岩代表华北克拉通北缘的冀北地块与华北克拉通在晚古生代重新拼合的俯冲碰撞拼贴带。     

北祁连香子沟榴辉岩相变沉积岩的锆石U-Pb年代学、Hf同位素特征及其地质意义

榴辉岩相变沉积岩普遍分布在北祁连HP/LT变质带中,在HP/LT变质带的西段香子沟地区,变质沉积岩的矿物组合为石英+多硅白云母+石榴子石+绿帘石±蓝闪石±绿辉石(+金红石+锆石)。利用石榴子石-绿辉石-多硅白云母地质温压计获得变沉积岩的峰期变质温度为448~467℃,压力为2.0~2.2GPa。锆石SHRIMP和LA-ICPMS U-Pb测试结果显示,碎屑锆石核的年龄分布在532~2700Ma之间,大部分集中在中元古代和晚古元古代之间,显示原岩的碎屑物质主要来源于中-古元古代岩石。2个样品的变质锆石边获得的206Pb/238U加权平均年龄分别为495±7Ma(MSWD=0.63)和496±7Ma(MSWD=5.6),代表了榴辉岩相变质年龄。结合前人研究成果和锆石Hf同位素特征,表明榴辉岩相变沉积岩的原岩形成于以陆缘碎屑为主的活动大陆边缘或弧前环境,在早古生代洋壳俯冲过程中,通过俯冲剥蚀作用被卷入到俯冲带深部,与所包裹的基性岩(榴辉岩的原岩)一起发生榴辉岩相变质作用,并快速折返至浅部。     

柴北缘野马滩超高压榴辉岩中副片麻岩夹层的锆石U-Pb定年及其地质意义

榴辉岩与围岩的变质程度和变质年龄研究是超高压竞质地体形成机制研究的关键.已有研究表明,柴北缘野马滩榴辉岩和围岩副片麻岩共同经历了超高压变质作用,榴辉岩的变质年龄为458±7Ma,但有关副片麻岩的变质时代存在争议,从而制约了本区超高压变质地体形成机制的讨论.本文选择新发现的野马滩超高压榴辉岩中的副片麻岩夹层进行详细的年代学和地球化学研究.锆石的阴极发光图象显示所选锆石具有清晰的核.边结构,为典型的变质碎屑锆石特征.LA-ICP-MS定年方法获得锆石核部原岩形成年龄为大于1000Ma,边部变质事件年龄为458±6Ma.该年龄与紧邻的超高压榴辉岩的变质年龄一致,指示二者形成于同一地质事件.岩石地球化学研究表明,片麻岩的原岩为形成于陆缘环境的含泥硅质岩.综合榴辉岩与片麻岩原岩形成构造背景、变质程度及产状关系,提出野马滩榴辉岩与围岩属"原地"关系,可能形成于陆壳的深俯冲作用.     

北祁连榴辉岩相变沉积岩的特征及其构造意义

在北祁连造山带中,出露典型的高压/低温变质岩石,前人对其中的低温榴辉岩已做过较多的研究,但对其中的变沉积岩研究涉及很少.本文展示了榴辉岩相变质沉积岩的岩石学、地球化学、锆石U-Pb年代学和Hf同位素方面的一些新的研究结果.变沉积岩含有榴辉岩相的矿物组合,峰期温压条件为t= 450～520℃,p=1.9～2.3 GPa,与相邻榴辉岩的温压条件一致.地球化学显示这些岩石的原岩为不成熟的沉积岩,可能形成于大陆边缘或大陆岛弧环境.变沉积岩中的碎屑锆石U-Pb年龄主要集中在1800 Ma左右和540～600 Ma之间,结合锆石Hf同位素特征,表明其原岩的碎屑来源既有周缘陆块的前寒武纪变质基底物质,又有新元古代-早古生代新生洋壳或增生物质.同时,这些数据也表明北祁连早古生代洋壳俯冲过程中发生了活动大陆边缘的构造剥蚀作用,即形成于上盘的沉积物(弧前盆地或增生楔)被构造作用运移到俯冲带中,并俯冲到60～70km深处,遭受榴辉岩相变质作用,然后折返到地表.     

甘肃北山地区榴辉岩的变质年龄：来自锆石的U-Pb同位素定年证据

北山造山带地处塔里木-中朝板块与哈萨克斯坦板块的交汇部分,主造山时期被认为是早古生代。榴辉岩产在北山造山带的南带,带中榴辉岩与大量基性超基性洋壳岩石和俯冲碰撞有关的花岗岩等伴生,反映该带有可能代表板块的边界。北山榴辉岩的锆石SHRIMP U-Pb同位素定年表明,榴辉岩相的变质年龄为(819±21)Ma,原岩年龄为(1007±20)Ma,表明北山地区存在新元古代一次重要的板块裂解和俯冲碰撞事件。与北山相邻的祁连山南部柴北缘地区近年也报道存在新元古代板块裂解和蛇绿岩洋壳形成事件,表明中国西部存在区域上的新元古代洋盆裂解事件,或称之为罗德尼亚大陆裂解事件。需强调的是,北山榴辉岩相变质事件发生在新元古代,柴北缘榴辉岩的原岩虽为新元古代洋壳岩石,但榴辉岩相变质作用则发生在早古生代,反映北山新元古代俯冲碰撞事件之后的又一次俯冲碰撞事件。     

北秦岭超高压榴辉岩中长英质脉体的锆石U-Pb年龄及其地质意义

北秦岭地区的早古生代超高压变质作用是整个秦岭-桐柏-红安-大别-苏鲁造山带内最古老的超高压变质记录, 代表华南与华北板块之间最早的一期增生碰撞事件, 然而目前对于该地区早古生代的构造演化过程仍存在较大争议.对北秦岭官坡超高压榴辉岩中的一个长英质脉体开展了详细的锆石形态学、微量元素和U-Pb年代学研究.结果表明, 脉体中的锆石呈自形的棱柱状晶形, 发育弱的振荡环带、面状分带或无明显分带特征, 具有高的HREE、Y、U含量, 低的Th含量和Th/U比值, 说明锆石生长自含水熔体.另外, 这些变质锆石具有LREE亏损、HREE相对富集的配分模式以及明显的Eu负异常, 表明含水熔体形成于角闪岩相退变质过程.锆石的206Pb/238U加权平均年龄为494±10 Ma (MSWD=2.2), 与北秦岭超高压变质作用的峰期年龄(490.4±5.8 Ma)在误差范围内基本一致.北秦岭地体经历深俯冲作用之后发生快速折返, 并在折返过程中发生角闪岩相退变质作用诱发俯冲板片部分熔融产生含水熔体.      

北秦岭高压-超高压岩石的多期变质时代及其地质意义

在岩相学观察和锆石CL图像研究的基础上,利用LA-ICP-MS原位微区定年分析方法,本文确定北秦岭清油河退变榴辉岩的峰期变质时代为490±6Ma,退变质时代为453±9Ma,原岩形成时代为655±9Ma;松树沟超高压长英质片麻岩的峰期变质时代为497±8Ma,两期退变质时代分别为448±4Ma和421±2Ma,原岩形成时代上限832±25Ma;寨根石榴石辉石岩的峰期变质时代为498±2Ma,中压麻粒岩相退变质时代为450±3Ma,角闪岩相退变质时代为426±1Ma,原岩形成时代为573±40Ma;西峡北榴闪岩的角闪岩相变质时代为423±3Ma,原岩形成时代为843±7Ma。新确定的这些岩石的峰期变质时代与前人已报导的区内高压-超高压岩石的峰期变质时代在误差范围内基本一致,结合区内高压-超高压岩石不仅分布在秦岭岩群北缘的官坡-双槐树一带,而且断续出露在秦岭岩群中部或偏南侧的清油河北-松树沟-寨根北甚至西峡北东西一线,进一步表明它们应是同一期构造地质事件的产物。北秦岭已发现的全部正变质的高压-超高压岩石均呈透镜体状分布在围岩片麻岩中,松树沟超高压长英质片麻岩的原岩为典型的陆壳沉积物,因此,这些高压-超高压岩石的形成可能都是陆壳俯冲-深俯冲作用的产物。结合岩相学观察、锆石CL图像和锆石U-Pb定年表明,这些高压-超高压岩石在～500Ma经历了峰期变质作用后,又分别在～450Ma和～420Ma遭受了中压麻粒岩相和或角闪岩相退变质作用的叠加,充分说明这些高压-超高压岩石经历了一个完整的由陆壳俯冲-深俯冲、之后连续两次抬升的构造演化过程。另外,本次研究新获得的这些岩石的原岩形成时代介于843±7Ma～573±40Ma之间,结合官坡榴辉岩的原岩形成时代为791～814Ma以及松树沟榴闪岩原岩时代为787±16Ma的研究,共同表明北秦岭高压-超高压岩石的原岩形成时代均为新元古代,因此,限定俯冲-深俯冲的陆壳物质应来自形成时代为新元古代的大陆地壳或地质体。结合区域地质背景和前人研究成果综合分析,本文初步认为,北秦岭高压-超高压变质岩带的形成是商丹洋向北俯冲拖曳南秦岭新元古代陆壳物质在～500Ma发生陆壳俯冲-深俯冲作用的产物,之后在～450Ma与～420Ma经历了两期抬升。     

北秦岭西部榴闪岩的发现与变质作用过程:锆石年代学和Hf-O同位素制约

秦岭造山带是由多期俯冲-碰撞造山和随后多阶段隆升成山形成的复合型造山带。近年来一个突破性进展是在北秦岭东部即陕西-河南交界地区以及桐柏地区的秦岭群高级变质岩中发现存在大量退变榴辉岩和高压麻粒岩,其中部分退变榴辉岩锆石包裹体中出现柯石英。这些发现证明北秦岭东部和桐柏地区的确在480~500Ma发生过深俯冲作用,随后造山带抬升形成退变榴辉岩。那么,北秦岭西部是否存在类似的(深)俯冲作用?本文首次在北秦岭西部宝鸡眉县地区发现了榴闪岩。该榴闪岩主要由石榴石和角闪石组成,含少量石英、透辉石和绿帘石。石榴石变斑晶都具有明显由退变质扩散作用形成的环带结构,绿帘石变斑晶具有与榴辉岩中绿帘石大致相同的XFe、CaO和Al2O3含量。同时,石榴石变斑晶核部还含有Amp+Cpx+Qtz包裹体,该包裹体矿物组合暗示其退变前可能是榴辉岩,而榴闪岩是在流体活动过程中退变质作用形成的。榴闪岩中锆石的离子探针SIMS定年获得很好的U-Pb谐和年龄(443.9±1.1Ma)和206Pb/238U的加权平均年龄(443.2±2.5Ma)。锆石的低Th和U含量和非常高Th/U比值(0.47~1.66)说明其并非是在"干"体系下形成的进变质锆石,应该是在流体强烈活动下形成的或是进变质锆石被退变质过程完全重置。因此,443Ma应该是榴闪岩的形成年龄即记录退变质作用发生的时间。这些锆石具有亏损的Hf同位素和类似地幔的氧同位素组成。因遭受退变质作用的强烈影响,其εHf(t)值和δ18O值有较宽的分布范围(εHf(t)=2.4~14.7;δ18O=4.25‰~6.39‰),其亏损地幔模式年龄为0.48~0.95Ga。所以,锆石的Hf-O同位素特征指示榴闪岩的原岩主要来自新元古代时期的亏损地幔来源的玄武质岩石。结合北秦岭东部地区榴辉岩发生退变质作用时代间隔可以大致判断北秦岭西部的榴闪岩的峰期变质时代可能为470~480Ma。由此发现,北秦岭东西部早古生代俯冲-碰撞事件时限上存在差异,即北秦岭早古生代俯冲-碰撞作用沿商南-宝鸡一线可能是自东向西发生的。     

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.

高压微波消解法测定醋酸纤维过滤器采集的微尘粒子中的砷镉钴铬铜铁锰镍铅钒锌

最新的流行病学研究表明,空气中较高浓度的悬浮细颗粒可能对人类的健康有不利的影响。根据该项研究显示,由于心脏病、慢性呼吸问题和肺功能指标恶化而导致死亡率的升高与细尘粒子有关。这些研究结果已经促使欧盟于1999年4月出台了限制空气中二氧化硫、二氧化氮、氧化氮、铅和颗粒物含量的法案(1999/30/EC),对各项指标包括对可吸入PM10颗粒的浓度提出了新的限制性指标。PM10颗粒是指可以通过预分级器分离采集的气体动力学直径小于10μm的细颗粒。目前研究的兴趣重点逐步偏向PM2.5这些更细微颗粒物,PM2.5这种颗粒物对健康有明显的不利影响。在欧盟指令2008/50/EC中,对PM10和PM2.5都提

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.     

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。     

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.
