通过录井、测井、地震、野外剖面与岩心资料的深入剖析, 探讨中上扬子地区下志留统页岩段的沉积相与总有机碳的关系, 预测页岩气有利勘探区。中上扬子地区下志留统龙马溪组为一套20～268 m厚的黑色页岩夹灰绿色泥质粉砂岩沉积, 在等时框架内自下而上可识别出2个三级层序即SQ1与SQ2, 它们分布稳定、可对比性好。下部层序(SQ1) 的海侵体系域(TST)发育一套有利于页岩气形成的富有机质页岩, 此时期呈现出“北面向次深海敞开、东西南三面受古陆围限、陆棚广布”的沉积格局, 深水陆棚相广泛发育, 面积为255000 km², 平均厚度35 m。受海平面下降的影响, 从下部层序至上部层序水体变浅, 岩相从深水陆棚相黑色页岩向中-浅水陆棚相沙纹层理粉砂质页岩转变。岩相的发育受海平面升降、古陆、海底地形、物源供给等因素的影响, 岩相类型有碳质或硅质或钙质页岩、纹层状页岩、生物扰动粉砂质页岩、沙纹层理的粉砂质页岩、块状砂岩或介壳灰岩薄夹层5类。研究表明, 沉积相对富有机质页岩的形成具有内在的控制作用, 高TOC含量页岩发育于深水陆棚相、中陆棚相和潟湖相中。目前, 已有多口井在龙马溪组页岩获得工业气流, 揭示了该区良好的页岩气勘探前景;综合分析认为涪陵-赤水-仁怀、威远-长宁、鄂西-渝东为中上扬子地区下志留统页岩气勘探的主要方向和有利目标区。     

沉积相带对川南龙马溪组页岩气富集的影响

为查明沉积相带对川南龙马溪组页岩气富集的影响,结合地层分布、岩性特征、沉积构造、有机碳含量、矿物组成、储集空间类型等特征,对龙马溪组页岩沉积相类型进行划分,并探讨沉积相带对有效页岩发育的影响,以期为页岩气富集条件评价提供依据。通过研究区6口页岩气井的钻井岩心观察,结合测井响应、实验测试分析,将龙马溪组划分为浅水泥质陆棚亚相、半深水陆棚亚相和深水陆棚亚相3种沉积亚相类型。有机碳含量、有效页岩的发育和分布、矿物组成以及孔隙发育特征是影响页岩气富集的关键因素,而这些因素均受控于沉积相带:沉积水体越深TOC含量越高,距离沉积中心越近TOC含量越高;龙马溪组地层厚度较大,但有效页岩厚度并不大,深水陆棚亚相沉积层段为页岩气富集的有效层段,且有效页岩层向沉积中心方向逐渐增厚;深水陆棚亚相丰富的生物供应为有效页岩带来了更高的有机质含量以及更多的脆性矿物,提高了岩石脆性;龙马溪组页岩中的孔隙类型主要为黏土矿物层间孔与有机质孔,且TOC含量高的沉积相带中有机质孔越发育。综上,深水陆棚亚相页岩具备有机质含量丰富、岩石脆性高、有机质孔发育等特征,是页岩气富集的最有利相带。     

大巴山前缘五峰组-龙马溪组干酪根碳同位素特征与有机质类型

大巴山前缘五峰组-龙马溪组有机质类型组成存在较大争议。在万源曹家、城口周溪、巫溪田坝、巫溪白鹿和巴东两河口等地区采集代表性样品进行有机碳含量、成熟度和干酪根碳同位素分析。五峰组-龙马溪组δ¹³C组成分布为-31.1‰~-28.2‰,田坝地区δ¹³C最轻,两河口地区δ¹³C最重。大巴山前缘干酪根类型是碳同位素组成的主要控制因素,有机质成熟度和有机碳含量影响较小。当有机质处于高成熟演化阶段,有机碳含量越高,δ¹³C组成偏轻;有机质处于过成熟演化阶段,有机碳含量越高,δ¹³C组成偏重,变化幅度小于1.2‰。按照干酪根碳同位素组成划分干酪根类型原则,大巴山前缘五峰组-龙马溪组有机质类型为I型(腐泥型)和Ⅱ₁型(腐殖腐泥型)。     

临兴地区海陆过渡相页岩及页岩气地球化学特征

为揭示鄂尔多斯盆地东缘上古生界海陆过渡相页岩及页岩气地球化学特征,选取临兴地区页岩样,开展薄片鉴定、全岩和黏土含量、扫描电镜、有机碳、岩石热解、干酪根显微组分和干酪根碳同位素测试,分析页岩解吸气的气体组分和碳同位素组成。结果表明:临兴地区过渡相页岩矿物组分主要是石英和黏土矿物,含少量方解石、斜长石、钾长石、白云石和黄铁矿等。受矿物成因、沉积环境等多方面的影响,不同矿物组分与有机质赋存方式各异。石英与有机质存在2种赋存方式,黏土矿物存在3种赋存方式,黄铁矿存在4种赋存方式。有机质类型为Ⅱ₂–Ⅲ型,有机碳含量平均值大于2.0%,干酪根碳同位素介于–24.5‰~–23.2‰。镜质体反射率介于0.92%~1.30%,t_max值介于427~494℃,有机质热演化达到成熟阶段。页岩气中烃类气以甲烷为主,含有少量乙烷、丙烷,总体属于干气。甲烷碳同位素均值为–40.0‰,介于海相页岩气和陆相页岩气甲烷碳同位素之间;乙烷碳同位素值介于–26.8‰~–22.56‰,均大于–29‰,整体呈现出δ13C₁＜δ13C₂＜δ13C₃正碳序列。研究认为,该区页岩具备大量生成页岩气的潜力,页岩气主要来源于上古生界偏腐殖型页岩,属于由干酪根裂解而生成的有机热成因煤成气。      

塔里木盆地荒漠植物与表土碳同位素组成研究

表土有机质碳同位素组成(δ¹³C_org)反映了来自于地表各种植物δ¹³C_org的一个混合信息.要从沉积物δ¹³C_org中提取可靠的植被信息,需要系统研究现代表土有机质δ¹³C_org与地表植被δ¹³C_org的差异.初步研究了塔里木盆地主要现代植被及土壤碳同位素组成,对比不同地区土壤和地表植被δ¹³C_org的差异.结果表明:塔里木盆地柽柳属种群中植物与表土碳同位素组成之间存在显著相关关系,说明在干旱地区土壤中微生物和水生生物等的干扰因素可以忽略,其现代土壤的同位素组成只与地表相应的主要植被类型有关.塔里木盆地柽柳属种群中表土有机质δ¹³C_org值比地表植被δ¹³C_org值平均偏正1.71‰左右,不同于其它地区表土和地表植被δ¹³C_org差异(2.2‰,1‰,0.5‰)的结果,反映不同地区表土和地表植被有机质δ¹³C_org值差异不同.在利用沉积物δ¹³C_org值提取古生态植被信息时,应考虑到不同地区土壤有机质与地表植被δ¹³C_org值的不同差异会影响植被中C₃、C₄植物组成情况.

以渝东北地区浅海陆棚相沉积的五峰组-龙马溪组泥页岩为研究对象,通过岩石薄片鉴定、矿物含量分析、扫描电镜、物性分析、有机地球化学分析等手段,剖析了泥页岩的岩相学、矿物学特征、储集空间类型。结果表明,五峰组-龙马溪组主要有炭质页岩、泥岩、泥质粉砂岩、硅质岩、泥灰岩和斑脱岩6种岩相类型。黑色页岩的有机质类型为Ⅰ型干酪根,有机碳含量较高,TOC普遍大于2%,最大达7.56%,平均为3.09%;有机质成熟度比较高,Ro值为1.65%~2.33%,基本上处于高成熟-过成熟阶段。矿物成分以石英矿物和黏土矿物为主,黏土矿物主要为伊利石和伊蒙间层。扫描电镜下观察,微孔隙主要包括矿物晶间孔、晶内孔、微裂缝以及有机质内微孔等。平均孔隙度为2.90%,平均渗透率为0.005×10-3μm2。     

扬子陆块下古生界页岩发育特征与沉积模式

为了深入探讨扬子陆块下古生界页岩发育与分布特征、建立沉积模式,系统收集与整理了扬子陆块下寒武统牛蹄塘组与上奥陶统-下志留统五峰-龙马溪组两套富有机质页岩大量数据,选取贵州省三都县渣拉沟及四川省筠连县昭104井两个典型剖面与井岩芯进行了系统观察与采样,对扬子陆块范围内两套富有机质页岩岩性与沉积相发育特征进行了系统分析.研究表明,早古生代以来,扬子陆块受被动大陆边缘扩张与陆缘造山挠曲坳陷两类成盆环境影响[1-2],牛蹄塘组页岩沉积于被动大陆边缘扩张环境,缘于上升洋流与缺氧事件复合沉积模式,富有机质页岩以扬子陆块东南缘深水陆棚-斜坡相区最为发育、厚度最大、有机碳含量最高;五峰-龙马溪组页岩沉积于加里东期周缘前陆造山环境,缘于浅水陆棚-闭塞滞留海湾沉积模式,富有机质页岩以中上扬子陆块东南缘深水陆棚区最为发育、厚度最大、有机碳含量最高.     

滇东地区马龙区块筇竹寺组海相页岩储层特征及对比研究

利用最新钻探的马页1井的井下资料和大量岩心样品的测试分析数据,并结合野外地质调查资料,从富有机质页岩的有机地化、矿物组分、储集特性和裂缝特征等方面,系统地研究了滇东地区马龙区块下寒武统筇竹寺组黑色页岩的储层特征。研究区筇竹寺组黑色页岩有机碳丰度较高,TOC含量普遍大于2%;由于筇竹寺组地层较老,黑色页岩的有机质均处于高成熟过成熟阶段;黑色页岩的矿物组分主要为碎屑矿物、碳酸盐矿物和黏土矿物。脆性矿物含量较高,脆性指数平均值为0.62。黏土矿物主要以伊利石为主,其次为伊蒙混层和绿泥石,高岭石含量较低;该区筇竹寺组页岩的孔、渗较低,孔隙类型复杂多样,主要包括“墨水瓶”孔、板状孔和狭缝型孔。页岩主要发育纳米级中孔,且比表面积和总孔体积偏小,平均值分别为9.18 m2/g和10.38×10-3cm3/g;储层裂缝以高角度缝为主,上部碳质页岩裂缝发育,下部粉砂质页岩裂缝不发育。有机碳含量和脆性矿物含量促进了页岩裂缝的发育;与国内外典型海相页岩储层对比,滇东地区马龙区块筇竹寺组页岩以粉砂质页岩为主,碳质页岩层较薄,而Fort Worth盆地Barnett页岩、焦石坝地区龙马溪组页岩和岑巩区块牛蹄塘组页岩主要为硅质页岩和碳质页岩,筇竹寺组页岩的岩相与这3组海相页岩相比较差;筇竹寺组页岩有机碳含量低于其他3组海相页岩,有机质丰度中等;筇竹寺组页岩脆性矿物含量与龙马溪组页岩相当,稍低于牛蹄塘组页岩,脆性较好;Barnett页岩和龙马溪组页岩无论在储集物性上还是有机质孔隙发育程度上都要优于筇竹寺组页岩和牛蹄塘组页岩,筇竹寺组页岩有机质孔隙主要发育于有机质与黏土的混合物中;筇竹寺组页岩裂缝发育程度低于Barnett页岩、龙马溪组页岩和牛蹄塘组页岩。此外,筇竹寺组页岩含气量低于其他3组海相页岩,但吸附能力较强。     

川南地区龙马溪组页岩有机质特征及其对页岩含气量的影响

四川盆地南部地区广泛发育下古生界寒武系、志留系等多套海相页岩层,其中龙马溪组是该区页岩气勘探开发的重点目标层。根据钻井岩心资料,通过有机碳、热解、碳同位素、等温吸附等地球化学实验分析,对川南地区下志留统龙马溪组页岩的有机质特征及其对页岩含气量的影响进行了研究。结果表明,川南地区龙马溪组页岩有机碳含量较高(平均1.53%),有机质类型较好(Ⅰ型和Ⅱ1型),热演化程度高(Ro为1.94%~2.42%),且页岩含气量较高(平均1.85m3/t)。页岩有机质特征是影响页岩含气量的主要因素,有机质丰度、有机质类型和热演化程度三者共同决定了川南地区龙马溪组页岩的含气量。     

湘西北下古生界海相页岩储层特征与含气性分析

基于野外地质和钻井资料,结合相关实验测试结果,对湘西北地区下古生界海相页岩储层特征进行了深入研究,并探讨了页岩甲烷含气性及影响因素。结果表明：牛蹄塘组黑色页岩以深水陆棚斜坡相沉积为主,厚度范围为50~250 m;龙马溪组为闭塞海湾沉积,底部黑色页岩发育。两组页岩有机质类型均属于Ⅰ型,有机碳含量平均为3.57%和1.16%,热演化程度较高,平均达2.61%和2.08%。受沉积环境和成岩作用影响,两组页岩均具有高石英、低黏土、少量碳酸盐矿物的组成特征。页岩储集空间可划分为3大类：矿物基质孔、有机质孔、微裂缝。受有机质和黏土矿物等因素影响,页岩内部孔隙结构参数各不同,但主体上孔径小于50 nm的微孔和中孔提供了大部分比表面积和孔体积,为气体存储主要场所。牛蹄塘组页岩甲烷最大吸附量平均为1.98 cm3/g;龙马溪组页岩甲烷最大吸附量较低,为1.16 cm3/g。其中有机质与黏土矿物对页岩甲烷吸附量均有一定的贡献,而过高的成熟度和含水量可导致页岩吸附能力下降。     

The terrestrial fauna of the Late Triassic Pant-y-ffynnon Quarry fissures,South Wales,UK and a new species of Clevosaurus (Lepidosauria: Rhynchocephalia)

Pant-y-ffynnon Quarry in South Wales yielded a rich cache of fossils in the early 1950s, including articulated specimens of new species (the small sauropodomorph dinosaur Pantydraco caducus and the crocodylomorph Terrestrisuchus gracilis), but no substantial study of the wider fauna of the Pant-y-ffynnon fissure systems has been published. Here, our overview of existing specimens, a few described but mostly undescribed, as well as freshly processed material, provides a comprehensive picture of the Pant-y-ffynnon palaeo-island of the Late Triassic. This was an island with a relatively impoverished fauna dominated by small clevosaurs (rhynchocephalians), including a new species, Clevosaurus cambrica, described here from a partially articulated specimen and isolated bones. The new species has a dental morphology that is intermediate between the Late Triassic Clevosaurus hudsoni, from Cromhall Quarry to the east, and the younger C. convallis from Pant Quarry to the west, suggesting adaptive radiation of clevosaurs in the palaeo-archipelago. The larger reptiles on the palaeo-island do not exceed 1.5?m in length, including a small carnivorous crocodylomorph, Terrestrisuchus, and a possible example of insular dwarfism in the basal dinosaur Pantydraco.     

The effect of water on accessory phase solubility in subaluminous and peralkaline granitic melts

The solubilities of columbite, tantalite, wolframite, rutile, zircon and hafnon were determined as a function of the water contents in peralkaline and subaluminous granite melts. All experiments were conducted at 1035 °C and 2 kbar and the water contents of the melts ranged from nominally dry to approximately 6 wt.% H₂O. Accessory phase solubilities are not affected by the water content of the peralkaline melt. By contrast, solubilities are affected by the water content of the subaluminous melt, where the solubilities of all the accessory phases examined increase with the water content of the melt, up to 2 wt.% H₂O. At higher water contents, solubilities are nearly constant. It can be concluded that water is not an important control of accessory phase solubility, although the water content will affect diffusivities of components in the melt, thus whether or not accessory phases will be present as restite material. The solubility behaviour in the subaluminous and peralkaline melts supports previous spectroscopic studies, which have observed differences in the coordination of high field strength elements in dry vs. wet subaluminous granitic glasses, but not for peralkaline granitic glasses. Lastly, the fact that wolframite solubility increases with increasing water content in the subaluminous melt suggests that tungsten dissolved as a hexavalent species.     

Quaternary stresses revealed by calcite twinning inversion: insights from observations in the Savonnières underground quarry (eastern France)

Calcite samples were extracted both from the rock matrix and the superficial coating of a karstified fault plane of an underground quarry, located in the eastern border of the Paris basin. The karstification is dated as Quaternary. Analysis of mechanical calcite twinning reveals that only the calcite matrix has also undergone a compression trending WNW that can be attributed to the Mio-Pliocene alpine collision. Both coating and matrix have undergone a strike-slip regime with σ₁ roughly trending north–south, that could correspond to the regional present-day state of stress, a strike-slip compression rather trending NNW, modified by local phenomena.
