青海玉树多彩地玛铅锌矿C-O、S同位素组成及成矿物质来源分析

多彩地玛铅锌矿位于青藏高原东北缘的青海玉树地区,夹持于西金乌兰-金沙江缝合带与班公湖-怒江缝合带之间,属于"三江"北段铜铅锌银多金属成矿带。结合区域地质调查及研究现状,对矿区围岩碳酸盐岩和两期热液方解石脉开展了C-O同位素组成分析,对硫化物矿石矿物和重晶石进行了S同位素组成分析。结果表明:赋矿围岩中方解石的δ~(13)C和δ~(18)O值范围分别为-1.6‰~+3.0‰和+21.2‰~+27.6‰,属于正常海相碳酸盐岩沉积,C和O来自海水;方解石脉体的δ~(13)C和δ~(18)O的值范围分别为-1.5‰~+2.1‰和+15.2‰~+20.3‰,C来自海相碳酸盐岩的溶解作用,~(18)O因热液蚀变碳酸盐岩在水/岩反应中同位素交换作用的影响而明显亏损;硫酸盐重晶石的δ~(34)S值范围为+12.3‰~+15.7‰,硫化物方铅矿、闪锌矿和黄铁矿的δ~(34)S值范围为-8.2‰~+5.7‰,峰值为-2.0‰~-3.0‰,反映了总体富轻硫的特征,硫源主要为盆地热卤水萃取地层蒸发岩中硫酸盐,并通过有机质热分解反应还原为低价硫分馏而得到;硫化物较宽的δ~(34)S变化范围反映了成矿物质在盆地内流体活动期间与不同地层单元发生相互作用,盆地内富有机质地层中沉积或生物成因S也有可能为成矿提供了部分硫源。     

内蒙狼山成矿带东升庙多金属硫化物矿床硫的来源及矿化过程

东升庙多金属硫化物矿床是狼山成矿带最大和最典型的铅锌多金属硫化物矿床,目前该矿床硫的来源及成矿过程仍存在争议。本文对矿区常见硫化物矿石和最重要的赋矿围岩——绢云石墨片岩中的硫化物分别进行硫同位素分析。结果显示东升庙矿床的硫化物普遍富集硫的重同位素,且矿石与围岩中的硫化物的硫同位素分布范围均较为集中。绢云石墨片岩中的黄铁矿的δ~(34)S值在+19.4‰~+23.4‰之间,具有和当时海水硫酸盐相似的硫同位素组成,指示围岩中的不规则黄铁矿是孔隙水(海水)中的硫酸盐被完全还原后形成的。矿石硫化物的δ~(34)S值在+28.3‰~+31.3‰之间,相比围岩中的黄铁矿明显富集硫的重同位素,指示两者具有不同的硫源。矿石中的硫可能源自基底地层中蒸发岩的溶解,由此形成的硫酸盐占主导的热液流体可萃取大量铅、锌等金属,当遇到狼山群地层中富含有机质的沉积岩时发生热化学还原反应,从而造成硫化物的大量卸载,形成金属硫化物矿床。     

内蒙古炭窑口硫化物矿床Fe、S同位素组成及对硫化物成矿的制约

古—中元古代时期是地质历史上最重要的铅-锌硫化物爆发性成矿阶段, 位于我国华北板块北缘西段的狼山多金属成矿带是这个时期的典型案例。作为成矿带内最大的硫化物矿床, 炭窑口和东升庙矿床赋矿层位和矿化特征一致, 被认为是同一个次级盆地内一次大型热液成矿事件的产物。这两个矿床所赋存的数亿吨硫化物矿石均不同程度富集重S同位素(平均值＞+30‰), 而对于矿石硫的具体来源及34S富集机制尚存争议。本文对炭窑口围岩和矿石中黄铁矿进行了Fe-S同位素研究, 对其沉积-成岩环境和矿化过程给出综合制约。炭窑口碳质板岩中粗粒黄铁矿δ56FeIRMM值在?0.51‰ ~ ?0.15‰之间, δ34SV-CDT值在+35.0‰ ~ +39.6‰之间, 相比东升庙矿床围岩中不规则黄铁矿明显富集轻Fe同位素且更加富集重S同位素, 可能是盆地边缘、相对氧化的浅水环境下Fe以氧化态几乎完全沉淀后成岩期转化的产物。该认识与炭窑口矿区常见层状重晶石所指示的比东升庙更加氧化的盆地边缘浅水环境一致。本文认为炭窑口矿石与围岩中硫化物均强烈富集重S同位素(δ34SV-CDT值均在+26.6‰ ~ +41.0‰之间)表明成岩环境同样是矿石硫化物结晶沉淀的主战场, 其中半局限环境中浓缩海水硫酸盐在较封闭成岩条件下被甲烷为主的还原剂几乎完全还原。“局限盆地+成岩环境”模式可以解释炭窑口—东升庙盆地围岩和矿石均异常富集重S同位素的特征。前人报道的与成矿关系密切的碳酸盐相对富集轻C同位素所指示的有机碳参与成矿为成岩环境成矿提供了可靠证据。尽管不能完全排除细菌还原硫酸盐的作用, 炭窑口—东升庙盆地各个层位围岩与矿石轻S同位素完全缺失表明开放体系细菌还原作用导致的硫化水体环境主导成矿的可能性较小。     

东天山卡拉塔格矿带红海VMS型矿床S、Pb同位素地球化学研究

红海早古生代块状硫化物矿床是近年来在东天山新发现的典型VMS型矿床,赋存在一套早古生代海相岛弧火山岩-火山碎屑岩中,是由上部透镜状块状矿体和深部脉状-网脉状矿体组成。文章对该矿床开展了系统的S、Pb同位素地球化学研究,拟揭示其成矿物质来源。本次分析获得金属硫化物的硫同位素δ34 S值:黄铁矿闪锌矿黄铜矿,且接近于0‰(-0.8‰~6.0‰);而重晶石的δ34 S值为高正值(27.4‰~29.9‰),这与世界大部分VMS型矿床的硫化物δ34 S值一致;矿床硫主要来自于下盘岛弧火山岩硫及与少量海水硫酸盐无机还原硫的混合。金属硫化物的Pb同位素组成比较集中,其中206 Pb/204 Pb为17.886~18.144,207 Pb/204 Pb为15.465~15.506,208Pb/204Pb为37.325~37.684,硫化物Pb同位素类似于MORB亏损地幔Pb同位素特征,具有地幔和造山带来源特征,显示其金属成矿物质主要来源于矿体下盘发育的具亏损地幔特征的岛弧火山岩。总之,红海VMS矿床硫化物S、Pb同位素研究显示其成矿物质主要来自岛弧火山岩,少量来自海水,它们为深入研究VMS矿床成矿物质来源和成矿过程中流体间相互作用提供了资料。     

云南金沙厂铅锌矿床硫同位素地球化学特征

金沙厂铅锌矿床位于云南省东北部,川-滇-黔铅锌成矿域的西北部,矿体主要赋存于下寒武统和上震旦统的碳酸盐地层中。该矿床的主要矿石矿物是闪锌矿和方铅矿,主要脉石矿物是重晶石、萤石和石英。闪锌矿的δ34S值分布于3.9‰～11.2‰之间,平均为5.7‰;方铅矿的δ34S值在6.0‰～9.0‰之间,平均为7.1‰;两个重晶石的δ34S值分别为34.8‰和34.5‰。重晶石的δ34S值与下寒武地层硫酸盐的一致,排除其他可能来源,认为重晶石的硫来源于下寒武统地层。硫化物的硫不可能来自细菌硫酸盐还原作用,因为流体包裹体均一温度远高于细菌的存活温度。硫酸盐热化学还原作用产生的同位素分馏至多为20‰,由此可知下寒武统地层中硫酸盐发生热化学还原作用产生的还原硫δ34S值至少应为14‰,这个值远高于该矿床硫化物δ34S值,因此这种机制不是还原硫的唯一来源。矿区周围广泛分布玄武岩,并且与岩浆有关的硫化物δ34S值比较低,所以硫化物中的硫可能来自岩浆活动。在方铅矿和闪锌矿共生的样品中,闪锌矿的δ34S值大于方铅矿的δ34S值,说明成矿流体的硫同位素局部达到平衡。利用矿物对硫同位素组成计算的硫化物平衡温度与流体包裹体均一温度一致。     

青海锡铁山铅锌矿床硫同位素地球化学研究——深源与海水硫的混合

锡铁山铅锌矿床发育较为完整的喷流沉积系统,包括管道相、近喷口相、远端沉积相及各种喷流沉积岩,并有后期改造作用形成的脉状铅锌矿体。本文通过喷流沉积系统各部位硫化物硫同位素的分析,不同部位硫化物硫同位素组成不同,且规律性变化。以黄铁矿分析结果为例,网脉状石英钠长岩δ34S=+0.8‰,代表供给系统的硫化物脉2.95‰,非层状矿体4.48‰,层状矿体3.25‰,炭质片岩为+6.26‰,后期改造型铅锌矿脉为+2.93‰。代表管道相的网脉状石英钠长岩黄铁矿具有深源(幔源)的硫同位素组成,而矿体或大理岩上盘炭质片岩具有海水硫来源的特点。矿体的硫介于二者之间,更靠近炭质片岩的硫化物同位素组成,其来源可能更多受海水硫酸盐的制约,即锡铁山矿床硫具有混合来源性质,主要是海水硫酸盐的还原,部分来源于深部卤水的供给。硫的还原方式以生物细菌还原为主。层状矿体中硫同位素组成由早至晚δ34S逐渐降低,表明层状矿体成矿作用过程中,发生了生物成因的H2S的大量加入。     

膏盐层在云南会泽和毛坪铅锌矿成矿中的作用：硫同位素证据

云南会泽和毛坪铅锌矿床位于扬子地块西南缘川-滇-黔铅锌多金属矿集区的中南部,小江断裂带、昭通-曲靖隐伏断裂带和垭都-紫云断裂带的构造复合部位,是我国著名的MVT型铅锌矿床。本文以会泽和毛坪铅锌矿为例,系统研究了矿床中矿石硫化物、矿区相关碳酸盐岩地层中微量硫酸盐(CAS)以及外围不同时代膏盐层中石膏的硫同位素组成,探讨了膏盐层在云南会泽和毛坪铅锌矿成矿中的作用。会泽矿床矿石硫化物的δ~(34)S_(V-CDT)值为11.0‰~20.0‰,多数集中在13.0‰~17.0‰之间,平均14.7‰,大致代表总硫的同位素组成。石炭系碳酸盐岩地层中微量硫酸盐的δ~(34)S_(V-CDT)值为10.4‰~18.6‰,平均13.1‰,较矿石硫化物的值稍低。矿区外围石炭系膏盐层中石膏的δ~(34)S_(V-CDT)值为12.9‰~17.1‰,平均13.6‰,与石炭系碳酸盐岩中微量硫酸盐的δ~(34) S_(V-CDT)值几乎完全一致。毛坪矿床矿石硫化物的δ~(34)S_(V-CDT)值与其赋存层位密切相关,赋存于摆佐组(C1b)的矿石硫化物的δ~(34)S_(V-CDT)值为7.1‰~17.5‰,平均12.8‰,较会泽矿石硫化物的值稍低,与石炭系碳酸盐岩地层中微量硫酸盐和石膏的值一致;赋存于宰格组(D3zg)的矿石硫化物的δ~(34)S_(V-CDT)值为18.3‰~22.7‰,平均21.1‰,与赋存于摆佐组(C1b)的矿石硫化物的值和会泽矿床矿石硫化物的值明显不同。矿区外围宰格组(D3zg)膏盐层中石膏的δ~(34)S_(V-CDT)值为21.9‰~25.9‰,平均23.6‰,与毛坪矿床宰格组(D3zg)矿石硫化物的值相似。通过对比会泽、毛坪矿床中不同赋矿层位矿石硫化物、石炭系不同层位碳酸盐岩中微量硫酸盐和矿区外围不同时代膏盐层中石膏的硫同位素组成及变化规律,提出会泽、毛坪铅锌矿床矿石硫化物中的硫主要来源于赋矿层位膏盐层中石膏硫酸盐的热还原。其中会泽铅锌矿的硫绝大部分来自石炭系膏盐层,只有10%的硫来自下伏的宰格组膏盐层;毛坪铅锌矿床中赋存于宰格组的矿体,矿石硫主要来自宰格组膏盐层,而赋存于摆佐组的矿体,矿石硫主要来自摆佐组膏盐层,即膏盐层是在原地被还原的。成矿作用分为两个阶段,第一阶段石膏与甲烷等有机质发生热化学反应,全部被还原形成H2S,储存在层间裂隙或溶洞之中,同时发生大规模白云岩化;第二阶段淋滤了深部基底岩石中Pb、Zn等金属成矿物质的成矿流体与储存在层间裂隙或溶洞之中的富含H2S的流体混合,形成黄铁矿、方铅矿和闪锌矿等富集沉淀,形成高品位矿石。     

青海德令哈蓄集银铅矿床地质与S-Pb同位素组成及其成矿学意义

蓄集矿床是宗务隆构造带内发现的重要银铅矿床。蓄集银铅矿床赋存于石炭-二叠系宗务隆群果可山组灰岩夹千枚岩地层中,矿体呈脉状、透镜状、似层状,明显受近东西走向的断裂构造控制,矿体围岩蚀变主要为硅化和绢云母化,矿石矿物主要为方铅矿和银黝铜矿,脉石矿物主要为石英,矿石具有斑杂状和网脉状构造。对该矿床开展了S-Pb同位素组成分析。硫同位素分析结果表明矿石中硫化物矿物δ~(34)S值变化于5.0‰～8.4‰之间,显示硫主要为岩浆来源,有少量地层的贡献;铅同位素分析结果表明,矿石~(206)Pb/~(204) Pb=17.896～17.922,~(207)Pb/~(204) Pb=15.589～15.617,~(208) Pb/~(204) Pb=38.072～38.166,与围岩铅同位素组成(~(206) Pb/~(204) Pb=17.94～18.976,~(207)Pb/~(204) Pb=15.600～15.696,~(208) Pb/~(204) Pb=38.106～40.943)较为相似,而与蓄集峡口闪长岩铅同位素组成(~(206) Pb/~(204) Pb=18.144～18.589,~(207)Pb/~(204) Pb=15.623～15.636,~(208)Pb/~(204) Pb=38.790～39.033)相差较大,反映成矿物质主要来自围岩地层宗务隆群果可山组。综合分析认为,蓄集银铅矿床与宗务隆构造带晚二叠世岩浆活动关系密切,应属岩浆热液为主的热液充填-交代成因类型。     

西藏扎西康矿集区夏隆岗铅锌矿床地质特征及其成矿物质来源研究:硫化物原位S同位素制约

夏隆岗铅锌矿床是扎西康矿集区内新近发现的铅锌矿床。矿床已发现的铅锌矿体受控于北东向、近南北向断裂构造。通过系统的钻孔编录,结合脉体穿插关系及矿物共生组合特征,可将矿床热液成矿期分为3个阶段。分别为:铁锰碳酸盐—多金属硫化物阶段(S1);石英—方解石—多金属硫化物阶段(S2);石英—硫盐矿物阶段(S3)。本次研究系统测试了该矿床热液成矿期不同阶段硫化物的原位硫同位素组成,发现了明显的差别。结果表明,S1阶段金属硫化物的δ~(34)S_V-CDT值介于-1.92‰~3.77‰之间,平均值为0.86‰,指示热液成矿早期S来源于岩浆。而S2阶段及S3阶段硫化物则具有不同的S同位素值,其中S2阶段金属硫化物的δ~(34)S_V-CDT=4.42‰~9.09‰,平均值为7.25‰。S3阶段脆硫锑铅矿δ~(34)S_V-CDT=5.27‰~5.54‰,平均值为5.41‰。S2成矿阶段、S3成矿阶段硫化物δ~(34)S_V-CDT值与区域上围岩地层S同位素较为相似,表明矿床热液成矿晚期有地层硫的加入。综合研究表明,夏隆岗铅锌矿床为与岩浆热液活动相关的热液脉型矿床。     

云南会泽铅锌矿田硫同位素研究

为探讨会泽铅锌矿田成矿流体总硫同位素组成、成矿温度、硫源及还原硫的形成机制,在分析前人的硫同位素数据基础上对麒麟厂矿床上部原生矿体硫化物(黄铁矿、闪锌矿和方铅矿)及麒麟厂和矿山厂矿床外围新发现的硫酸盐矿物(重晶石)进行了硫同位素研究。结果显示,原生矿体中的硫化物的δ34S变化为8.0‰~17.68‰,成矿流体中硫同位素已达分馏平衡;矿床外围的硫酸盐δ34S变化为17.95‰~24.30‰。利用共生矿物对Pinckney法,估算获得成矿流体的δ34SΣS为14.44‰,与海相硫酸盐的δ34S相近;通过同位素地质温度计,估算获得成矿温度为134~388℃;包裹体测温发现,重晶石为热液成因,暗示成矿流体中的硫可能来自矿区及矿区外围各个地层的海相硫酸盐或是矿区发现的热液重晶石。硫酸盐的还原机制应为热化学还原作用(TSR)。     

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.     

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     

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.     

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。     

Regional distribution of Al,B, Ba,Ca, K,La, Mg,Mn, Na,P, Rb,Si, Sr,Th, U and Y in terrestrial moss within a 188,000 km2 area of the central Barents region: influence of geology,seaspray and human activity

Five hundred and ninety-eight samples of terrestrial moss (Hylocomium splendens and Pleurozium schreberi) collected from a 188,000 km² area of the central Barents region (NE Norway, N Finland, NW Russia) were analysed by ICP-AES and ICP-MS. Analytical results for Al, B, Ba, Ca, K, La, Mg, Mn, Na, P, Rb, Si, Sr, Th, U and Y concentrations are reported here. Graphical methods of data analysis, such as geochemical maps, cumulative frequency diagrams, boxplots and scatterplots, are used to interpret the origin of the patterns for these elements. None of the elements reported here are emitted in significant amounts from the smelting industry on the Kola Peninsula. Despite the conventional view that moss chemistry reflects atmospheric element input, the nature of the underlying mineral substrate (regolith or bedrock) is found to have a considerable influence on moss composition for several elements. This influence of the chemistry of the mineral substrate can take place in a variety of ways. (1) It can be completely natural, reflecting the ability of higher plants to take up elements from deep soil horizons and shed them with litterfall onto the surface. (2) It can result from naturally increased soil dust input where vegetation is scarce due to harsh climatic conditions for instance. Alternatively, substrate influence can be enhanced by human activity, such as open-cast mining, creation of ‘technogenic deserts’, or handling, transport and storage of ore and ore products, all of which magnify the natural elemental flux from bedrock to ground vegetation. Seaspray is another natural process affecting moss composition in the area (Mg, Na), and this is most visible in the Norwegian part of the study area. Presence or absence of some plant species, e.g., lichens, seems to influence moss chemistry. This is shown by the low concentrations of B or K in moss on the Finnish and Norwegian side of the (fenced) border with Russia, contrasting with high concentrations on the other side (intensive reindeer husbandry west of the border has selectively depleted the lichen population).     

NEW SET OF LOW CONCENTRATION STANDARDS FOR LA, CE, SM, YB, LU, Y, SC, V, NB AND TA IN SILICATES

We have developed a set of four synthetic standards for the rare earth and high field strength elements designed for use in the determination of those elements in silicates. The base material is a glass nominally at the eutectic of the MgO-Al₂O₃-SiO₂ ternary system. The nominal doping level was 2 wt% of the elements as oxides. To avoid problems associated with peak interference, the elements were doped in four separate glasses.
