Isotopic Geochronological Evidence for the Caledonian Xiongdian Eclogite in the Northwestern Dabie Mountains,China

A typical HP/MT (high pressure/medium temperature) eclogite from Xiongdian, northwestern Dabie Mountains, has been geochronologically studied using the single-zircon U-Pb, 40Ar-39Ar and Sm-Nd methods. Prismatic zircons occurring as inclusions within garnets define a minimum crystallization age of 399.5±1.6 Ma. 40Ar-39Ar dating on amphibole gives a plateau age.of 399.2 ± 4 Ma, which is interpreted as a retrogression age of amphibolite facies. This integrated study enables us to conclude that the age of high-pressure metamorphism is older than 399.5 ± 1.6 Ma, suggesting Caledonian collision between the North China and Yangtze plates. Round zircon within the aggregate of quartz and muscovite gives a concordant age of 301± 2 Ma, reflecting a later retrogression event. An age profile of post-eclogite metamorphism is documented, including amphibolite facies metamorphism at 399.2 Ma shortly after eclogitization and later retrogressive metamorphism at 301 Ma. Sm-Nd mineral isochron of garnet+omphacite gives     

辽西牛营子地区晚三叠世逆冲构造

燕山陆内造山带侏罗纪的构造及其研究已广为报道，但确凿的三叠纪构造分析明显不足，对辽西凌源牛营子地区详细的构造地质调查揭示该区晚三叠世晚期存在的逆冲构造，盆地东部中侏罗世郭家店组之下覆盖着一套晚三叠世逆冲叠瓦构造，其运动指向，黄土坡以西逆冲叠瓦构造由西向东推覆；黄土坡以北弧形断裂由北向南逆冲，为派生的运动。逆冲断裂带控制的槽地之中发育同逆冲期邓杖子组灰岩－－白云岩质角砾砾岩，我们的资料表明，对杖子组时代应属晚三叠世晚期，与晚三叠世老虎沟组基本是连续过渡的，原定牛营子盆地早－中侏罗世地层是倒置的，正常的晚三叠世－中侏罗世地层序列自下而上应为老虎沟组，邓杖子组，水泉沟组，郭家店组，晚三叠世晚期逆冲构造事实的确定说明，燕山陆内造山带至少从晚三叠世起就经历了强烈的变形，其早期形变历史对于认识区域构造演化和陆内变形的发展过程具有重要意义。     

Seismic Features of the Crust-Upper Mantle Beneath Karamay-Kuqa, Xinjiang

1. IntoductionSponsored by the National 305 Program, China, a teleseismic experiment was performed jointly by the Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences and the French Scientific Research Center in Tian Shan area from June 1997 to February 1998. The array was mostly deployed along the main road, starting from Karamay in the north to Kuqa in the south. Geologically, the 700 km-long profile covers the Junggar basin, the Tian Shan Mts., the Bo-A Fault and the Korla Fault, ending in nort…     

A Study of High-Temperature and High-Pressure Experiment of Correlativity between Deformational System of Au-Bearing Rocks and Element Adjustment

Modelling of migration and accumulation of elements Au and Ag in rocks under temperatures of350-450℃ and a confining pressure of 300 MPa and axial pressure of 100-150 MPa is conducted. It is found thatthe contents of gold and silver get higher in metallic sulphides such as pyrite, chalcopyrite and sphalerite as well asin quartz and muscovite, and get lower in chlorite, biotite, sericite, albite and calcite, showing that tectono-dynamicsis one of the important factors for petrogenesis and metallogenesis.     

Grey Prediction of Seismic Activity in the Three Gorges Area of the Yangtze River

On the basis of historical earthquake data and recent observations, two grey models prediction of the next seismic active period and the maximal magnitude of earthquakes which might occur during that period are constructed on the basis of the grey theory. As predicted by the two models, the next seismic active period would last 79 years, and that the maximal magnitude of earthquakes occurring within the period would not exceed 5.2. These results provide an important basis for the assessment of earthquake risks and reduction of disasters in the Three Gorges area.

湘南骑田岭地区锡矿富集的磁梯度矢量结构研究

湖南骑田岭岩体南部地区已发现的单脉锡矿储量大于1万t的矿体有9条,其中19号脉储量约为25万t,其他8条储量为18万t,可见各脉的锡矿富集情况极为悬殊。本文通过对航磁异常的幅值和梯度矢量结构的研究,发现特别富集的19号脉位于航磁ΔT异常以及上延1000m磁异常矢量梯度的交汇部位和上延2000m磁异常矢量梯度的汇集部位,而其他8条矿体则没有此特征;19号锡矿体之所以特别富集,可能是由于从浅层到深部的成矿流体均运移汇聚而富集,而其他8条矿体则可能只是浅部成矿流体的局部富集。同时,根据与19号脉相似的磁异常矢量梯度的结构,本文指出了3个异常区可能是寻找大型矿脉的靶区。     

福建紫金山地区中生代构造环境转换的岩浆岩地球化学证据

紫金山地区的中生代岩浆岩主要由晚侏罗世花岗岩和早白垩世火山－侵入杂岩构成，其中后者与该地区大规模的铜金成矿作用有关。此外，该区的才溪二长花岗岩岩枝是在晚侏罗世紫金山花岗岩体定位之后，早白垩世火山－侵入杂岩形成之前侵位的。晚侏罗世花岗岩的元素地球化学特征显示，它是印支期－燕山早期陆内叠复造山过程中，陆壳岩石在相对低压条件下的熔融产物。早白垩世火山－侵入杂岩以高Al和Ti、富集轻稀土、Eu负异常不明显，相对富Sr,Cr,Ni,Zr,Cu,Au,Ag，以及较低的Sn,W,Rb/Sr值和较低的锶氧同位素初始比值，区别于晚侏罗世花岗岩；它们的Sr/Y-Y和Ni-Cr关系与残余10％榴闪岩或榴辉岩的MORB熔融曲线大致吻合，表明它们是地幔上隆、区域拉伸环境下洋壳物质部分熔融的岩浆产物。才溪二长花岗岩的元素地球化学介于晚侏罗世紫金山花岗岩与早白垩世火山－侵入杂岩之间，它是区域挤压向区域拉伸转换的标志性产物。岩浆岩地球化学证据显示，紫金山地区早白垩世大规模铜金成矿作用，形成于区域挤压转换到拉伸的构造环境。
