CHARACTERISTICS OF Nd AND Sr ISOTOPES AND TRACE ELEMENTS FOR LATE CRETAEOUS VOLCANIC ROCKS IN KING GEORGE ISLAND, ANTARCTICA: IMPLICATIONS FOR SOURCE OF THE VOLCANICS FROM DEPLETED MANTLE

Rb-Sr isotopic isochron dating of the volcanic rock samples from the Upper Cretaceous Half Three Point Formation on the King George Island is 71.33±0.3 Ma. Correlative study of _(εND)(T)-~(147)Sm/~(144)Nd, ~(143)Nd/~(144)Nd-~(87)Sr/~(86)Sr, ~(87)Sr/~(86)Sr-Sr and ~(87)Sr/~(86)Sr-K_2O/(K_2O+Na_2O) indicated that the volcanic rocks were chiefly derived from the depleted mantle source and generally were not mixed crust materials. Of the samples 6 were given the mean Sm-Nd model age (T_(DM)~(Nd) of 443.3±20.6 Ma possibly indicating the age of chemical variation event in the magma source of the study area. Features of the trace elements indicated that the rocks from the Half Three Point Formation are of typical eale-alkaline volcanic suite and similar to those from the Tertiary volcanic rocks of the Fildes Peninsula, being the same products of the island-arc volcanic activity.     

南极南设得兰群岛中-新生代火山作用与地质环境

本文对采自南设得兰群岛的乔治王岛、纳尔逊岛、利文斯顿岛、欺骗岛和南极半岛的火山岩和火山灰进行了岩石化学和Sr、Nd同位素分析，Ar-Ar和K－Ar年龄测定。研究表明，南设得兰群岛火山岩属于玄武岩－安山岩－英安岩岩石组合，安们的Sr、Nd同位素比值非常接近，^87Sr/^86Sr比值普遍比较低，为0．703297－0．703507；^143Nd/^144Nd比值普遍比较高，为0．512835－0．513779，二者呈负相关，εNd-^87Sr/^86Sr相关图显示岩浆来源于亏损地幔。火山岩形成时代集中于96Ma、91Ma、78Ma、60Ma和35Ma等时段。35Ma之后，火山活动长时间消沉，直到晚中新世和第四纪才时有发生；这一漫长的历史时期，正是南极大陆冰盖逐渐形成之时。是气候变冷抑制了火山活动？还是火山活动的减弱和停止导致气候变冷？尚待进一步研究；但冷期火山活动减弱或停止，暧期火山活动活跃和增强，这一对应关系是存在的。火山作用的时空分布及岩石地球化学特征暗示，南设得兰群岛处于一个岛弧的地质环境，早期群岛基本上与南极半岛连在一起，在德雷克板块的俯冲下，群岛逐渐与半岛分离，形成布兰斯菲尔德海峡（裂谷），在弧后扩张和裂谷作用下产生新的火山活动。

海鸟活动在东南极中山站区莫愁湖沉积物中的记录

本文对采自东南极拉斯曼丘陵中山站区的莫愁湖沉积物的元素、氨基酸和Sr同位素组成进行了详细的地球化学分析。结果表明莫愁湖沉积物中Zn、Cu、F、S、P、Se等六种元素具有共同的物质来源,其标型组合特征很可能揭示了莫愁湖沉积物在历史时期曾受到过企鹅等海鸟粪的影响,沉积物中酸溶相Sr同位素组成则确认了海洋源Sr的生物地球化学转移过程。酸溶相87Sr/86Sr值和研究区的新鲜海鸟粪酸溶相Sr同位素组成基本一致,都非常接近于海洋来源锶同位素组成(87Sr/86Sr=0.7092),并且沉积物中的生物元素Zn、Cu、F、S、P、Se含量和酸溶相Sr浓度具有非常高的统计相关性。酸溶相的87Sr/86Sr比值和反映湖泊中藻类等生物自然生成量的氨基酸含量表现出明显的负相关关系,进一步揭示了莫愁湖沉积物在历史时期曾受到企鹅等海鸟活动的影响。上述研究结果为更深入地研究该地区的生态、气候和环境的演变历史及其相互作用提供了有价值的参考资料。     

末次冰消期以来白令海盆的冰筏碎屑事件与古海洋学演变记录

通过对白令海盆中部BR02岩芯高分辨率的颜色、粒度和元素地球化学地层的研究发现:(1)该岩芯较为完整地记录了末次盛冰期结束以来(约16.3 ka BP)的多期冰筏碎屑事件,包括H1、OD、YD和北方2期,其中以H1和YD最为显著,反映了末次冰消期以来该地区海冰/冰山以及区域性冰川的消长变化;(2)BR02岩芯上部17—25 cm段出现富Mn、富Ba的氧化型沉积,说明在全新世高海面时期,白令海与北太平洋、北冰洋之间的水体交换达到极点,白令海环流加强,海盆底层水含氧状况明显改善,并引发海洋生产力增加;(3)CaO、Na2O、Sr、Zr及Na2O/K2O比值的分布说明,海盆冰筏碎屑主要来自富碳酸盐的育空河流域,其次为阿拉斯加半岛和阿留申群岛等火山岩区;岩芯上部Na2O/K2O比值的递增暗示10 ka BP以来与火山物质输运有关的北太平洋入流(阿拉斯加流)可能增加。     

云南江城勐野井组细碎屑岩主量元素特征及其物源属性探讨

一定的泥岩地球化学特征对应于特定的源区和构造环境,利用主量元素图解可以进行盆地物源分析。通过对思茅盆地江城勐野井矿区含盐系勐野井组(K2me)及其下伏扒沙河组(K1p)泥、砂岩的主量元素地球化学特征分析,并结合岩石薄片观察结果,表明物源区母岩类型主要为长英质岩石;通过SiO2-K2O/Na2O及K2O/Na2O-SiO2/Al2O3判别图分析,认为源区的构造背景具有类似于被动大陆边缘的特征;成分变异指数ICV、化学蚀变指数CIA表明研究区砂、泥岩物源区经受了较强的化学风化作用。     

A NONMARINE LATE CRETACEOUS DEPOSITIONAL UNIT ON KING GEORGE ISLAND, WEST ANTARCTICA

A new lithostratigraphic unit-Half Three Point Formation is determined on an inlet (62°13′40″S, 58°59′01″W) near Half Three Point of Fildes Peninsula of King George Island, South Shetland Islands. This formation consists of volcanic breccia, Sediment-tuff, tuffaceous siltstones and mudstones about 5.5m thick. The Palynomorph assemblage is of Late Cretaceous age (Campanian-Maastrichtian). Isotopic age of the tuffites by Rb-Sr whole rock method is 71.30±0.3 Ma. The calcite of sand-sized tuffites formed by calcitization during early diagenesis has very light 6~(18)C value of-26.24％, PDB, and 6~(13)C value of-5. 130 to 5.631％,PDB. It suggests that the calcitization is related to thermal freshwater originally. The tuffaceous mudstone contains lower B content of 48.4 ppm, corresponding to that of lacustrine mudstones. Low ~(87)Sr/~(86)Sr ratio (0.703189-0.703320) indicates the tuffites of continental origin. Therefore, the formation may represent a lacustrine deposit under low energy and reducing env     

青海大浪滩凹地梁中矿区软钾镁矾沉积元素和相化学分析

青海大浪滩凹地梁中矿区是典型的固、液矿共存的钾镁盐矿床。地质勘查显示,梁中矿区埋深8~10m以下沉积有层状的含钾硫酸盐固体钾矿(主要是软钾镁矾,并伴生有钾石盐和光卤石)。在兴元钾肥厂已开挖的矿层断面,选择7.3 m的沉积剖面,采集并分析了73件盐样和7件晶间卤水样离子含量,结合2件样品的软钾镁矾稳定锶同位素比值、矿物组合分布和25℃时Na+,K+,Mg2+//Cl-,SO2-4–H2O五元体系介稳相图,探讨了研究区软钾镁矾沉积的化学元素组成特征和化学演化过程。结果表明,1)5.3~2.6 m沉积了钾盐矿物,K+含量主要在10%~18%之间变化;2)全新世温度的升高和外来水体的混入,使软钾镁矾沉积时矿物析盐序列呈现逆向析盐过程;3)对比软钾镁矾和研究区盐湖卤水、油田卤水的87Sr/86Sr值,推断大浪滩凹地软钾镁矾的沉积可能与其南侧断裂—小梁山构造气田水渗入有关。     

西南极乔治王岛北海岸第三纪火山岩的岩石化学和地球化学研究

乔治王岛北海岸的第三纪火山岩包括菲尔德斯半岛组（ＦＰＧ）熔岩、Ａｄｍｉｒａｌｔｙ湾组（ＡＢＧ）岩颈和Ｗｅｇｇｅｒ峰组（ＷＰＧ）侵入岩。大多数中基性熔岩为斑状结构，斜长石和普通辉石是岩石中最主要的斑晶相。安山岩中尚含有少量斜方辉石，英安岩质熔岩则为细晶质结构。岩颈相岩石的物质组成与熔岩相似，但斑晶含量往往较少。岩石化学成分表明，所有岩石均富铝，为亚碱性火山岩，属于钙碱性岩石系列。岩石富集大离子亲石元素，轻稀土元素略为富集，稀土元素总含量落在钙碱性岩石的含量范围之内并基本随硅含量的增加而增加。岩石具有很低的８７Ｓｒ／８６Ｓｒ比值（０．７０３４左右）和较高的１４３Ｎｄ／１４４Ｎｄ比值（０．５１２７８－０．５１２８８），εＮｄ平均值在＋６左右。８７Ｓｒ／８６Ｓｒ比值与Ｓｉ、Ｋ、Ｒｂ、１／Ｓｒ等元素呈水平线性关系。在Ｃｅ／Ｙｂ－Ｃｅ和Ｔｈ／Ｔａ－Ｔｈ图解上所有岩石的投影点分布趋势相同，趋势线的斜率＞０。上述特征表明，乔治王岛北海岸第三纪火山岩均由上地幔物质直接生成而未受壳源物质的混染。推测在古太平洋板块向南极板块下俯冲的过程中，上地幔发生的不同程度部分熔融所生成的玄武岩岩浆从深部岩浆囊沿构造薄弱带穿过地壳直接喷出形成     

西南极利文斯顿岛火山岩多种成因过程的地球化学证据

利文斯顿岛火山岩是南极南设得兰岩浆弧的一部分。对岩石的Ｓｒ、Ｎｄ、Ｐｂ同位素组成以及８７Ｓｒ／８６Ｓｒ与１／Ｓｒ、Ｒｂ、Ｋ和ＳｉＯ２关系的研究表明,利文斯顿岛火山岩具有不同的源区特征。百耳斯半岛和史莱夫角的火山岩、西多斯角的粗玄岩和第三纪的英云闪长岩显示出同成因的特点,和依诺特角第四纪橄榄玄武岩一样,它们均具有原生地幔的同位素组分,源区岩浆可能直接来自上地幔。汉那角和中利文斯顿岛火山岩岩浆则受到地壳成分的混染。不相容元素对Ｌａ／Ｓｍ－Ｌａ和Ｃｅ／Ｙｂ－Ｃｅ的研究进一步显示出,上述不同产地的岩石分别为不同源岩浆不同程度部分熔融的产物。结合岩相学和岩石化学特征的研究,提出百耳斯半岛和史莱夫角的火山岩以及西多斯角的粗玄岩是上地幔发生部分熔融所生成的玄武岩岩浆从深部岩浆囊沿构造薄弱带直接喷出形成的。古生代基底岩系的存在对中利文斯顿岛和汉那角火山岩的成因过程有重要的影响,即来自深部岩浆囊的原始岩浆在上地壳中的浅部岩浆囊受到了壳源物质混染。更新世－现代火山岩的源区岩浆直接自上地幔部分熔融生成,火山作用与晚新生代时该区的拉张构造有关。     

Sm–Nd and Rb–Sr studies of lherzolitic shergottite Yamato 984028

The distribution pattern of the trace elements Rb, Sr, Nd and Sm for Yamato 984028 (Y984028) is consistent with its classification as a lherzolitic shergottite. The Sm–Nd mineral isochron of this lherzolitic shergottite defines its age to be 170 ± 10 Ma for an initial ?_Nd = +11.6 ± 0.2. The corresponding Rb–Sr mineral isochron yields an identical age of 170 ± 9 Ma and an initial ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr = 0.710389 ± 0.000029. The concordant Sm–Nd and Rb–Sr isochron ages suggest that Y984028 crystallized 170 ± 7 Ma ago contemporaneously with five other lherzolitic shergottites and ten enriched basaltic and olivine-phyric shergottites. The age, Sr- and Nd- isotopic signatures further suggest that Y984028 and Y-793605, and also probably Y000097 could come from a single magmatic body. Using a two-stage evolution model, the time-averaged ⁸⁷Rb/⁸⁶Sr-ratio for the mantle source of the parent magma of Y984028 is ～0.182, within the range of 0.178–0.182 that has been reported for other lherzolitic shergottites. The corresponding time-averaged ¹⁴⁷Sm/¹⁴⁴Nd-ratio for the source mantle of its parent magma is super-chondritic at ～0.217, implying its source was a depleted mafic part of the Martian mantle similar to that of diabasic shergottite Northwest Africa (NWA) 1460. Rb, Sr, Sm and Nd distributions in Y984028 are likely produced by pyroxene and olivine accumulation, probably from a NWA 1460-like parental melt, in an intrusive magma body.     

西南极乔治王岛菲尔德斯半岛火山岩同位素年代及地层对比

以K-Ar,(39)~Ar-(40)~Ar和Rb-Sr法对菲尔德斯半岛的火山岩进行了同位素测年。实验结果表明,半岛的火山作用从晚古新世开始,可能一直延续至中中新世的早期。其间,碧玉山段的岩石分别以Rb-Sr和(39)~Ar-(40)~Ar法测定了形成年龄,年龄值为54Ma和55Ma,属于晚古新世;岛上广泛分布的玛瑙滩段熔岩的K-Ar年龄区间为45～50Ma,为早始新世;化石山段从中始新世到渐新世;而最晚形成的岩块山段的时代为中中新世的早期。这些数据,与地质和古生物证据一起,对了解该区地层的相互关系和讨论火山作用提出了正确的认识。     

南设得兰群岛利文斯顿岛鲍勒斯山组火山岩的~(40)Ar/~(39)Ar年龄及地质意义

采用４０Ａｒ／３９Ａｒ法和激光微区等时线方法，对南极南设得兰群岛利文斯顿岛东部产出的鲍勒斯山组火山岩重新进行了年龄测定。结果表明，４５Ｄ安山质熔岩和２６２玄武安山质熔岩的等时年龄分别为（１０５．６２±２．１１）Ｍａ和（１１１．４８±２．２３）Ｍａ，其４０Ａｒ／３９Ａｒ初始比与尼尔值相当，岩石中不含过剩氩，表明等时年龄代表岩石真正的形成年龄。脉状产出的Ａ９３５２细晶岩的４０Ａｒ／３９Ａｒ坪年龄为（９６．７±１．６）Ｍａ，计算得到等时年龄为９６．６Ｍａ，晚于熔岩喷发而形成。新的年龄数据证实了鲍勒斯山组火山岩形成于白垩纪。白垩纪火山活动曾影响了整个利文斯顿岛，在赫德半岛出露的鲍勒斯山组火山岩曾被较年轻火山岩所覆盖，构造抬升使其出露。     

ISO TOPIC AGE AND STRATIGRAPHYCAL CORRELATION OF VOLCANIC ROCKS IN FINDES PENINSULA, KING GEORGE ISLAND

The volcanic rocks of Agate Beach Member are the products of the volcanic activities during Early Eocene according to K-Ar isochron (45-50Ma); d. The geological age of fossil Hill member is about Middle Eocene to Early Oligocene; e. the formation time of Block Hill member is probably early Middle Miocene. These data combining with the geological adn palaeontological evidences strongly support to best understand the stratigraphical correlation adn reveal the volcanism in studied area.     

Rb–Sr,Sm–Nd,and Ar–Ar isotopic systematics of lherzolitic shergottite Yamato 000097

Isotopic analysis of the Martian lherzolitic shergottite Yamato 000097 yields a Rb–Sr age of 147 ± 28 Ma with an initial ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr ratio of 0.710490 ± 0.000072, a Sm–Nd age of 152 ± 13 Ma with an initial ɛ¹⁴³Nd-value of +11.7 ± 0.2, and a ³⁹Ar–⁴⁰Ar age of ∼260 Ma. The near concordance of these ages, in combination with the Rb–Sr and Sm–Nd initial isotopic signatures, suggests that Yamato 000097 crystallized from low Rb/Sr, light rare earth element depleted source materials ∼150 Ma ago. Although the obtained ³⁹Ar–⁴⁰Ar age is significantly higher than the Rb–Sr and Sm–Nd ages, Yamato 000097 shows little or no evidence of trapped Martian atmospheric ⁴⁰Ar. The trapped ⁴⁰Ar concentration of Yamato 000097 is similar to that of Zagami, suggesting that both basaltic and lherzolitic shergottites may have similarly inherited excess ⁴⁰Ar from their magmas.The Rb–Sr and Sm–Nd ages, and initial ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr and ɛ¹⁴³Nd-values of Yamato 000097 and Yamato 793605 lie on the same isotopic ingrowth curves, suggesting that they came from very similar mantle sources. Allan Hills 77005 was also probably derived from the same source, but Lewis Cliff 88516 appears to be from a distinct but similar source. Yamato 000097 represents the most recent known magmatism from its source, and is the youngest Martian meteorite for which concordant Rb–Sr and Sm–Nd ages have been determined.

Additional Rb-Sr and single-grain zircon datings of Caledonian granitoid rocks from Albert I Land, northwest Spitsbergen

Previous K-Ar and Rb-Sr datings of the metamorphic and granitic rocks from the northwestern basement region of Spitsbergen mainly show the cooling time of the rocks, except for a Rb-Sr isochron age of the Hornemantoppen granitoid. New samples were collected during several years of geological mapping in the area and the Rb-Sr whole rock isochron and single-grain zircon evaporation methods were applied to the Hornemantoppen granitoids and the grey granites. A dioritic dyke was also dated by the latter method. The bulk rock chemistry study shows that most of both granitic rocks are of the S-type and probably post orogenic, with distinctive incorporation of crustal materials. The isotopic data also support this interpretation. The results of the Rb-Sr isotope analyses, 412 ± 4.8 Ma and the zircon Pb evaporation age of 424 ± 56 Ma, confirm the previous age of the Hornemantoppen granitoid, 414 ± 10 Ma. An older zircon age of 547 ± 19 Ma is considered to be the minimum age of inherited zircon. Zircons from the grey granites suggest an age of ca. 420 Ma with a large error. Field relations demonstrate that the grey granites are older than the Hornemantoppen granitoids. A minimum inherited zircon age, 952 ± 20 Ma, has been obtained from the grey granites. Three multi-grain Pb ages, 423 ± 22 Ma (2 grains), 461 ± 42 Ma and 561 ± 93 Ma (the last two 3 grains) were considered to be mixed ages. Although no definitive evidence for the presence of Grenvillian granites in this area has been obtained in the present study, preliminary results from the multi-grain zircon evaporation method, carried out in the Russian laboratory at Apatity, infer Paleo- and Mesoproterozoic protoliths for the metamorphic rocks of northwestern Spitsbergen.
