Genesis of the Zhaxikang epithermal Pb-Zn-Sb deposit in southern Tibet,China: Evidence for a magmatic link

The Zhaxikang Pb-Zn-Sb deposit is one of the most important deposits in the Southern Tibet metallogenic belt. Based on field geology, petrography, melt- and fluid inclusions and C-H-O isotopes, we describe and discuss the mineralization, alteration, and their possible link with magmatic fluids. Our results show that the Zhaxikang deposit shares many geological and geochemical similarities with typical intermediate-sulfidation (IS) epithermal deposits. The Pb-Zn-Sb mineralization is closely related to Fe-Mn carbonate- and silicic alterations, which formed the outer rim around the greisen in the Cuonadong Dome. Orebodies occur mainly as structurally-controlled veins and breccia dikes, with major minerals include sphalerite, galena, pyrite, arsenopyrite, and Fe-Mn carbonates. Main stage ore-forming fluids were of medium temperature (214–292 °C), low salinity (2.6–5.3 wt.% NaCl eqv.) and CO₂-bearing.Melt/fluid inclusions in beryl and quartz from the pegmatite indicate that the primary magmatic fluids were derived from the melt-fluid immiscibility. The magmatic fluids were of low salinity (0.2–7.9 wt.% NaCl eqv.), high temperature (298–457 °C) and CO₂-rich, and contained minor CH₄, N₂, C₂H₆, C₃H₈ and C₆H₆. The presence of Mn-Fe carbonates and daughter gahnite minerals in the beryl-hosted inclusions indicates high Mn, Fe and Zn contents in the parental magma and related magmatic fluids. This implies a genetic link between magmatic fluids and the Pb-Zn-Sb mineralization, as also supported by Ar-Ar dating and H-O-C isotopic evidence. We suggest that the Zhaxikang is best classified as an IS epithermal deposit, and the ore-forming fluids are likely to be magma-derived. Boiling of the magmatic fluids led to high-salinity fluids and metal enrichment. High regional geothermal gradient caused by the thermal doming event may have facilitated long distance transportation of magmatic fluids, and led to the formation of a wide alteration zone and distal Pb-Zn-Sb mineralization. The temperature drop and meteoric water involvement may have precipitated the Pb-Zn-Sn minerals in the distal fault systems.     

岩浆岩对矽卡岩型铜钼矿化的贡献：以云南金平长安冲铜钼矿为例

长安冲铜钼矿床位于中国西南部哀牢山构造带南段,区内斑岩型/矽卡岩型Cu‑Mo‑Au矿床广泛出露。前人已对这些矿床成矿斑岩体物理化学条件进行了大量的研究。然而,前人研究主要依据为副矿物锆石主微量元素,对主要造岩矿物关注较少,导致对成矿岩浆演化早期物理化学条件缺乏制约。此外,成矿物质来源也需要更多同位素数据制约。因此,我们对成矿斑岩体开展了系统的单矿物（长石、云母、角闪石）电子探针分析和硫化物S‑Pb同位素研究,以制约岩浆岩对矽卡岩型铜钼矿化的贡献。研究表明,角闪石水压计计算结果表明角闪石结晶时岩浆水含量约为3.7%~4.2%,说明成矿岩浆含水量较高。根据角闪石成分分析计算氧逸度值介于∆NNO = +1.2~+1.8之间,表明含矿岩浆具有较高的氧逸度。通过角闪石压力计得出角闪石结晶压力为61~106 MPa,通过黑云母压力计得出黑云母结晶压力为32~123 MPa,对应成岩成矿深度为1.3~4.6 km,这一结果与前人流体包裹体研究成果基本一致。主成矿阶段硫化物Pb同位素与成矿斑岩源区的下地壳角闪岩分布一致,δ³⁴S同位素介于0.2‰~1.5‰之间,为岩浆硫。综上,岩浆岩是长安冲铜钼矿床的主要成矿物质来源,成矿岩浆岩高氧逸度和水含量是成矿金属富集的重要因素,单矿物压力计是估算矽卡岩型矿床成矿深度可行方法。

     

赣南淘锡坝矿床岩浆岩年代学、地球化学特征及其与成矿关系

淘锡坝大型锡矿位于华南武夷山成矿带与南岭成矿带的交接部位,其矿床类型、成因、成岩成矿关系十分复杂,且一直缺乏有效的约束。文章围绕着矿床内发育的岩浆岩开展了系统的岩石学、锆石U-Pb年代学和岩石地球化学研究。淘锡坝矿床岩浆岩具有多阶段多岩相演化特征,从早到晚分别为：凝灰岩→中-粗粒似斑状花岗岩→细粒花岗岩→花岗斑岩。LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb年代学研究显示,淘锡坝锡矿具有140~148.4 Ma（中酸性火山岩）和122.3~138 Ma（花岗岩类）2个主成岩期。淘锡坝花岗岩具有高硅、富钾、贫钙的特点,属A型花岗岩,凝灰岩具有高硅、富钙的特点。尽管二者均相对富集不相容元素Rb、Th、U、Nb,亏损Ba、Sr等高场强元素,但其具有不同来源和演化进程,前者主来源于古老地壳物质,并且有明显的幔源物质的加入,经历了斜长石的分离结晶,后者主要来源于古老地壳物质的部分熔融,经历了钾长石的分离结晶。此外,淘锡坝花岗岩成岩年龄与成矿年龄一致,而凝灰岩年龄则显著早于成矿年龄（114~138.2 Ma）,并且花岗岩相对于凝灰岩具有更高的演化程度和更低的氧逸度条件,更加有利于锡的富集。因此,淘锡坝矿床锡矿化应与花岗岩关系更为密切,成矿母岩为中-粗粒似斑状花岗岩与细粒花岗岩,形成于燕山晚期华南大规模陆壳伸展的背景之下。     

安徽高家塝钨钼矿床花岗闪长质侵入岩岩浆起源和演化及其对成矿能力的约束

安徽高家塝钨钼矿床位于江南过渡带,为一大型斑岩-矽卡岩型矿床,矿体赋存于小型花岗闪长斑岩体及其内外接触带中,紧邻的大型花岗闪长岩体中未见矿化。为查明制约两者成矿能力差异的原因,本文从岩石学、锆石U-Pb年代学、黑云母矿物化学、岩石地球化学等方面分别对矿区两个花岗闪长质侵入岩体开展了系统的对比研究。结果表明,花岗闪长斑岩成岩年龄为145. 1±2. 1Ma～144. 9±2. 2Ma,花岗闪长岩为142. 5±1. 8Ma～141. 8±1. 6Ma,前者侵位结晶稍早于后者。两者具有近于一致的主量、微量、稀土和Sr-Nd同位素组成特征,显示矿区两个花岗闪长质侵入岩体是由同一岩浆活动先后侵位到相近空间所形成,其原始岩浆具有相同的壳幔混合来源,即上涌的幔源玄武质岩浆与由其底侵引起挤压加厚的扬子下地壳部分熔融岩浆的混合,与长江中下游成矿带铜陵矿集区中酸性侵入岩不同的是,岩浆在上升过程中或滞留于浅位岩浆房中时明显地同化混染了扬子上地壳物质。然而,起源相同的花岗闪长质岩浆历经演化并先后侵位结晶时,其岩浆特征和结晶条件发生了显著变化,表现为:花岗闪长斑岩结晶时继承大量元古代锆石,花岗闪长岩则较少见有继承锆石,综合两者岩体特征和侵位结晶条件,显示前者岩浆熔体规模小、岩浆温度低、冷却结晶较快,岩体形成于富含F、Cl和相对还原的环境;而后者岩浆熔体规模巨大,岩浆温度相对较高,冷却结晶慢,岩体形成于贫F、Cl和相对氧化的环境。这在一定程度上影响了矿区两个花岗闪长质侵入岩体的成矿能力,演化早期偏还原性的花岗闪长斑岩岩浆以及其中较高的F、Cl含量更有利于钨富集于岩浆期后热液流体中,进而形成大型钨(钼)矿床。此外,相较于大型花岗闪长岩体而言,浅成侵位的小型花岗闪长斑岩体具有更为发育的裂隙系统以及受围岩更大影响而发生强烈矽卡岩化,也为矿质富集和沉淀提供了有利条件。本文研究为皖南地区钨(钼)矿床的找矿勘探及成矿模式的建立提供了新依据。     

The giant Imiter silver deposit: Neoproterozoic epithermal mineralization in the Anti-Atlas, Morocco

The world-class Imiter silver deposit, in the Anti-Atlas Mountains of Morocco, is a Neoproterozoic epithermal vein deposit genetically associated with a felsic volcanic event, and formed within a regional extensional tectonic regime. Rhyolitic volcanism related to ore formation has been dated at 550Dž Ma by ion-probe U/Pb on zircons. The economic silver mineralization is superimposed on an older, discrete base-metal assemblage associated with calc-alkaline granodioritic magmatism. The magmatism is dated at 572LJ Ma by ion-probe U/Pb dating on zircons, and by ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar dating on hydrothermal muscovites. In the Anti-Atlas Mountains, the Precambrian-Cambrian transition appears as an important period for the formation of major, productive precious-metal deposits associated with volcanic events and extensional tectonics. The Imiter silver deposit constitutes a Precambrian analogue to modern epithermal deposits.     

斑岩铜钼矿床成矿流体的出溶、演化与成矿:以大兴安岭南段敖仑花矿床为例

本文报道了大兴安岭南段敖仑花斑岩铜钼矿床中斑状石英的一些新发现。通过对其结构、成因和内部流体包裹体的研究,反演初始成矿流体性质;结合热液期脉系特征,探讨流体从出溶到成矿的演化过程。斑状石英包括"单颗粒石英"和"多晶石英集合体",以普遍发育含子矿物流体包裹体为特征,为岩浆-热液过渡期的特有产物。流体包裹体研究显示敖仑花矿床初始成矿流体具有高温高盐度特征,为H2O、CO2和Na-K-Ca-Fe-Cu-Ti等元素组成的络合物体系,在压力≥115MPa、深度≥4.3km条件下可出溶出温度≥492℃、盐度达到47.6%～58.7%NaCleqv的流体。热液期成矿系统压力突然降低导致流体发生沸腾,同时伴随温度骤减是引发大规模成矿的主要机制。根据矿物在脉系中的发育情况和显微测温数据,将辉钼矿的析出温度限定在335℃以上,即代表以辉钼矿沉淀为峰期成矿标志的主成矿温度下限。斑状石英中流体包裹体研究揭示敖仑花矿床形成到至今抬升高度约≥4.3km,暗示区域最小平均隆升剥蚀速率为32.6m/Ma。斑岩体中斑状石英不仅可以作为流体出溶的标志判断岩体是否具有成矿潜力,指导斑岩型矿床找矿工作,还能够为区域地质演化提供重要约束。     

Petrology,geochemistry and U–Pb geochronology of magmatic rocks from the high-sulfidation epithermal Au–Cu Chelopech deposit,Srednogorie zone,Bulgaria

The Chelopech deposit is one of the largest European gold deposits and is located 60 km east of Sofia, within the northern part of the Panagyurishte mineral district. It lies within the Banat–Srednegorie metallogenic belt, which extends from Romania through Serbia to Bulgaria. The magmatic rocks define a typical calc-alkaline suite. The magmatic rocks surrounding the Chelopech deposit have been affected by propylitic, quartz–sericite, and advanced argillic alteration, but the igneous textures have been preserved. Alteration processes have resulted in leaching of Na₂O, CaO, P₂O₅, and Sr and enrichment in K₂O and Rb. Trace element variation diagrams are typical of subduction-related volcanism, with negative anomalies in high field strength elements (HFSE) and light element, lithophile elements. HFSE and rare earth elements were relatively immobile during the hydrothermal alteration related to ore formation. Based on immobile element classification diagrams, the magmatic rocks are andesitic to dacitic in compositions. Single zircon grains, from three different magmatic rocks spanning the time of the Chelopech magmatism, were dated by high-precision U–Pb geochronology. Zircons of an altered andesitic body, which has been thrust over the deposit, yield a concordant ²⁰⁶Pb/²³⁸U age of 92.21 ± 0.21 Ma. This age is interpreted as the crystallization age and the maximum age for magmatism at Chelopech. Zircon analyses of a dacitic dome-like body, which crops out to the north of the Chelopech deposit, give a mean ²⁰⁶Pb/²³⁸U age of 91.95 ± 0.28 Ma. Zircons of the andesitic hypabyssal body hosting the high-sulfidation mineralization and overprinted by hydrothermal alteration give a concordant ²⁰⁶Pb/²³⁸U age of 91.45 ± 0.15 Ma. This age is interpreted as the intrusion age of the andesite and as the maximum age of the Chelopech epithermal high-sulfidation deposit. ¹⁷⁶Hf/¹⁷⁷Hf isotope ratios of zircons from the Chelopech magmatic rocks, together with published data on the Chelopech area and the about 92-Ma-old Elatsite porphyry–Cu deposit, suggest two different magma sources in the Chelopech–Elatsite magmatic area. Magmatic rocks associated with the Elatsite porphyry–Cu deposit and the dacitic dome-like body north of Chelopech are characterized by zircons with ɛHf_T90 values of ∼5, which suggest an important input of mantle-derived magma. Some zircons display lower ɛHf_T90 values, as low as −6, and correlate with increasing ²⁰⁶Pb/²³⁸U ages up to about 350 Ma, suggesting assimilation of basement rocks during magmatism. In contrast, zircon grains in andesitic rocks from Chelopech are characterized by homogeneous ¹⁷⁶Hf/¹⁷⁷Hf isotope ratios with ɛHf_T90 values of ∼1 and suggest a homogeneous mixed crust–mantle magma source. We conclude that the Elatsite porphyry–Cu and the Chelopech high-sulfidation epithermal deposits were formed within a very short time span and could be partly contemporaneous. However, they are related to two distinct upper crustal magmatic reservoirs, and they cannot be considered as a genetically paired porphyry–Cu and high-sulfidation epithermal related to a single magmatic–hydrothermal system centered on the same intrusion.     

内蒙古甲乌拉铅锌银矿区岩浆岩年代学、地球化学特征及其对成矿的约束

内蒙古满洲里地区的甲乌拉铅锌银矿区的成岩、成矿事件及其相互关系目前仍有很大争议。文中对矿区内与成矿密切相关的石英斑岩、闪长玢岩开展详细研究。锆石SHRIMP U Pb年代学研究表明：矿区致矿侵入体之一石英斑岩形成于(129±4.8) Ma,成矿晚(或后)期的闪长玢岩形成于约(124±2.5) Ma;认为铅锌银等成矿作用应发生于(129±4.8)~(124±2.5) Ma,为早白垩世末期。岩石地球化学特征显示石英斑岩具有高硅、高钾、贫钙等特征,TAS图上属于亚碱性系列,硅铁镁图上属于钙碱系列,硅钾图上属于高钾钙碱系列。轻重稀土分馏明显,具有明显的负铕异常。相对富集大离子亲石元素(LILE),而亏损高场强元素(HFSE),且具有低Sr、高Y等特征。闪长玢岩同样展现出高钾、高铝、贫钙特征,TAS图上属于亚碱性系列,硅铁镁图上属于拉斑系列;轻、重稀土分馏明显,具明显负铕异常,但稀土总量较高;相对富集大离子亲石元素(LILE),亏损高场强元素(HFSE),同具有低Sr、高Y等特征。这些研究结果表明：石英斑岩具有火山弧的特征,主要来源于壳源的熔融;闪长玢岩具有活动大陆边缘弧的特征,主要来源于地幔的熔融,但经历了壳源的混染上述岩浆与甲乌拉的铅锌银矿;推测应为蒙古-鄂霍次克洋由俯冲向陆陆转换阶段产物。     

湘东北幕阜山地区燕山期岩浆演化与稀有金属成矿的关系

湘东北幕阜山地区分布传梓源(锂矿、铌钽矿)、仁里(钽铌矿)和虎形山(钨矿、铍矿)大型稀有金属矿床,是湖南省重要的伟晶岩型稀有金属矿集区。通过对幕阜山地区花岗岩和伟晶岩开展年代学和地球化学研究,探讨该区燕山期岩浆演化与稀有金属成矿的关系,结果表明: 该区岩浆活动自侏罗纪(154 Ma)持续到白垩纪(92 Ma),形成了复式花岗岩体和伟晶岩脉,伟晶岩空间具有含矿分带性; 伟晶岩的成矿年龄(130~127 Ma)与二云母二长花岗岩的成岩年龄(137~129 Ma)相近,成矿作用与岩浆高分异演化密切相关; 伟晶岩含矿分带性受成矿流体温度影响,矿流体温度由岩体向外成逐渐降低,形成了“岩体内伟晶岩型铍矿带—距岩体0~3 km伟晶岩型铌钽矿带—距岩体3~5 km伟晶岩型锂铌钽矿带—距岩体5~10 km石英脉型铍矿带”的环状分布格局。     

Boiling and vertical mineralization zoning: a case study from the Apacheta low-sulfidation epithermal gold-silver deposit, southern Peru

The Au-Ag (-Pb-Zn) Apacheta deposit is located in the Shila district, 600 km southeast of Lima in the Cordillera Occidental of Arequipa Province, southern Peru. The vein mineralization is found in Early to Middle Miocene calc-alkaline lava flows and volcanic breccias. Both gangue and sulfide mineralization express a typical low-sulfidation system; assay data show element zoning with base metals enriched at depth and higher concentrations of precious metals in the upper part of the veins. Three main deposition stages are observed: (1) early pyrite and base-metal sulfides with minor electrum 1 and acanthite; (2) brecciation of this mineral assemblage and cross-cutting veinlets with subhedral quartz crystals, Mn-bearing calcite and rhombic adularia crystals; and finally (3) veinlets and geodal filling of an assemblage of tennantite/tetrahedrite + colorless sphalerite 2 + galena + chalcopyrite + electrum 2. Fluid inclusions in the mineralized veins display two distinct types: aqueous-carbonic liquid-rich Lw-c inclusions, and aqueous-carbonic vapor-rich Vw-c inclusions. Microthermometric data indicate that the ore minerals were deposited between 300 and 225 °C from relatively dilute hydrothermal fluids (0.6-3.4 wt% NaCl). The physical and chemical characteristics of the hydrothermal fluids show a vertical evolution, with in particular a drop in temperature and a loss of H₂S. The presence of adularia and platy calcite and of co-existing liquid-rich and vapor-rich inclusions in the ore-stage indicates a boiling event. Strong H₂S enrichment in the Vw-c inclusions observed at -200 m, the abundance of platy calcite, and the occurrence of hydrothermal breccia at this level may indicate a zone of intense boiling. The vertical element zoning observed in the Apacheta deposit thus seems to be directly related to the vertical evolution of hydrothermal-fluid characteristics. Precious-metal deposition mainly occurred above the 200-m level below the present-day surface, in response to a liquid/vapor phase separation due to an upward boiling front.     

新疆延东斑岩铜矿床火山机构、容矿岩石及热液蚀变

延东斑岩铜矿床位于新疆东天山晚古生代大南湖岛弧中。延东矿区出露地层是石炭纪企鹅山组火山-沉积岩,我们研究提出延东矿区出露的火山-沉积岩以及浅成侵入岩为石炭纪火山喷发-岩浆侵入产物,并将其划分成两个旋回五个岩相:第一旋回包括溢流相(玄武岩和安山岩)、爆发相(集块角砾熔岩)和爆发-沉积相(凝灰岩);第二旋回包括次火山相(闪长玢岩和闪长岩)和浅成侵入相(斜长花岗斑岩)。容矿岩石是次火山相的闪长玢岩和闪长岩以及浅成侵入相的斜长花岗斑岩。闪长玢岩发育中性斑岩蚀变系统,包括内部的绢云母-绿泥石蚀变带和绿泥石-绢云母蚀变带和外围的青磐岩化带,其中绢云母-绿泥石蚀变带控制本区部分富矿体的形成和分布;斜长花岗斑岩发育酸性斑岩蚀变系统,从中心向外依次为黄铁绢英岩化带、强绢云母化带和弱绢云母化带,黄铁绢英岩化带控制本区部分富矿体的形成和分布。这两个蚀变系统以钾硅酸盐化蚀变不发育和绢云母化广泛发育为特点。     

Fluid processes in the Tesbihdere base-metal-Au deposit: Implications for epithermal mineralization in the Biga Peninsula,NW Turkey

Tesbihdere is one of a number of spatially close epithermal Cu-Pb-Zn-Ag-Au deposits hosted by andesites and rhyolites, typical of deposits in the Biga peninsula. Microthermometry of fluid inclusions shows a wide range of temperatures, ～360–170°C, and salinities, ～10-0.5 wt.% NaCl, in the different deposits studied. Dilution of a moderately saline magmatic? fluid with meteoric water occurred at constant temperature indicating, the temperature of both fluids was controlled by the geological environment. Boiling was not a major factor, but did occur in very minor amounts. The large range of temperatures within individual samples can only reasonably be explained by variations from near lithostatic to hydrostatic pressure during vein and fracture opening. That this pressure decrease did not produce extensive boiling suggests that vein opening was gradual rather than aggressive, allowing the pressure and temperature decrease to follow a path close to the L-V boiling curve. P-T reconstruction places emplacement of these ore veins at between 300–500 m beneath the surface. Similarities of LA-ICPMS of fluid inclusions from Tesbihdere, Azitepe and Basmakci, supports the conclusion that they were part of the same contemporaneous mineralizing system. The fluids are dominated by Na, with the concentrations of K>Ca>Mg combined equivalent to the concentration of Na. The range of K/Na ratios is not consistent with the fluid inclusion temperatures as the calculated temperatures are significantly higher indicating the fluids were not close to equilibrium with the enclosing rocks. Elevated K concentrations are consistent with acid-sulphate waters in shallow epithermal systems. Ore metals Cu, Zn and Pb are present in significant concentrations ～500, 300 and 200 ppm respectively and the low Fe/Mn ratios are indicative of a relatively oxidising fluid. The negative δ ³⁴S values of sulphides are consistent with boiling and oxidising redox conditions.     

Compositions of magmatic melts and evolution of mineral-forming fluids in the banska Stiavnica epithermal Au-Ag-Pb-Zn deposit, Slovakia: A study of inclusions in minerals

Melt and fluid inclusions were investigated in minerals from igneous rocks and ore (Au-Ag-Pb-Zn) veins of the Stiavnica ore field in Central Slovakia. High H₂O (7.1–12.0 wt %) and Cl (0.32–0.46 wt %) contents were found in silicate melt inclusions (65–69 wt % SiO₂ and 5.2–5.6 wt % K₂O) in plagioclase phenocrysts (An 68–36) from biotite-homblende andesites of the eastern part of the caldera. Similar high water contents are characteristic of magmatic melts (71–76 wt % SiO₂ and 3.7–5.1 wt % K₂O) forming the sanidine rhyolites of the Vyhne extrusive dome in the northwestern part of the Stiavnica caldera (up to 7.1 wt %) and the rhyolites of the Klotilda dike in the eastern part of the ore field (up to 11.5 wt %). The examination of primary inclusions in quartz and sanidine from the Vyhne rhyolites revealed high concentrations of N₂ and CO₂ in magmatic fluid (8.6 g/kg H₂O and 59 g/kg H₂O, respectively). Fluid pressure was estimated as 5.0 kbar on the basis of primary CO₂ fluid inclusions in plagioclase phenocrysts from the Kalvari basanites. This value corresponds to a depth of 18 km and may be indicative of a deep CO₂ source. Quartz from the granodiorites of the central part of the Stiavnica-Hodrusa complex crystallized from a melt with 4.2–6.1 wt % H₂O and 0.24–0.80 wt % Cl. Magmatic fluid cogenetic with this silicate melt was represented by a chloride brine with a salinity of no less than 77–80 wt % NaCl equiv. Secondary inclusions in quartz of the igneous rocks recorded a continuous trend of temperature, pressure, and solution salinity, from the parameters of magmatic fluids to the conditions of formation of ore veins. The gold mineralization of the Svyatozar vein system was formed from boiling low-salinity fluids (0.3–8.0 wt % NaCl equv.) at temperatures of 365–160°C and pressures of 160–60 bar. The Terezia, Bieber, Viliam, Spitaler, and Rozalia epithermal gold-silver-base metal veins were also formed from heterogeneous low-salinity fluids (0.3–12.1 wt %) at temperatures of 380–58°C and pressures of 240–10 bar. It was found that the salt components of the solutions were dominated by chlorides (high content of fluorine, up to 0.45 mol/kg H₂O, was also detected), and sulfate solutions appeared in the upper levels. The dissolved gas of ore-forming solutions was dominated by CO₂ (0.1–8.4 mol %, averaging 1.3 wt %) and contained minor nitrogen (0.00–0.85 mol %, averaging 0.05 mol %) and negligible methane admixtures (0.00–0.05 mol %, averaging 0.004 mol %). These data allowed us to conclude that the magmatic melts could be sources of H₂O, Cl, CO₂, and N₂. The formation of the epithermal mineralization of the Stiavnica ore field was associated with the mixing of magmatic fluid with low-concentration meteoric waters, and the fluid was in a heterogeneous state.     

Determination of mineralization stages using correlation between geochemical fractal modeling and geological data in Arabshah sedimentary rock-hosted epithermal gold deposit,NW Iran

This research paper aims to delineate and recognize different gold mineralization stages based on surface lithogeochemical data using factor analysis and Spectrum-Area (S-A) modeling, as well as geological data in Arabshah sedimentary rock hosted epithermal gold deposit, NW Iran. Based on the factor analysis, Au and Mn were allocated to factor 2 (F2) and then classified by the S-A fractal modeling. In addition, Au and F2 values were transformed to spectrum data, which were categorized by the S-A log-log plots. Accordingly, the main mineralization phase contains Au and F2 (Au-Mn) values greater than 800 ppb and 0.3, respectively, and is associated with the occurrence of minerals such as pyrite, arsenian pyrite, realgar, orpiment and oxidized sulfides. The first phase of gold mineralization, where Au typically ranges between 80 and 350 ppb, is associated with base metal sulfides, arsenian pyrites and F2 values between 0.1 and 0.2. The second gold mineralization phase consists of Au values from 350 to 800 ppb and F2 values between 0.2 and 0.3. Combination of the S-A modeling, factor analysis and geological data outlined three gold mineralization stages in Arabshah gold deposit. The main mineralization stage showed a strong positive correlation with the NE-SW and NW-SE trending structures, the altered intrusive rocks such as microdiorite and granodiorite, and the altered subvolcanic dacitic domes.     

内蒙古安家营子金矿与侵入岩的关系及其地球动力学意义

位于华北陆块北缘金矿成矿带的安家营子中型金矿属赤峰-朝阳金矿化集中区。金矿体主要赋存于安家营子花岗岩岩体内。区内广泛分布着与金矿化相伴生的流纹斑岩脉。与金矿化密切相关的安家营子花岗岩具有轻稀土富集、重稀土亏损、较低的^87Sr／^86Sr初始比值、Ba—Sr含量高等特点,暗示该花岗岩浆形成深度较大。这些特点与我国胶东地区与金矿有关花岗岩的特征非常相似,但区别于较早期的喀喇沁花岗岩和成矿后的流纹斑岩脉。锆石U—Pb年龄表明,安家营子花岗岩侵位时代为132—138Ma,而穿切矿体的流纹斑岩岩脉的成岩时代为124．9—126,5Ma,进而金矿成矿时代可以限定在126．132Ma。这一年龄结果与华北克拉通中生代动力学体制发生转折的时间相吻合。研究表明,早中生代前后华北东部曾发生了动力学机制的重大转折,如挤压向伸展转变和岩石圈的减薄达到高峰导致岩浆作用增强等。华北克拉通绝大多数金矿床集中形成于这一转折时期暗示成矿作用可能与深部作用过程有关,即早白垩世地慢物质-能量强烈上涌的同时,使金等威矿元素活化迁移至地壳层次,并在有利的构造部位富集成矿。

西藏纳如松多铅锌矿床是冈底斯北侧银铅锌多金属成矿带中的典型矿床,文章利用LA-ICP-MS测试技术,对矿区石英闪长岩开展了详细的锆石U-Pb年代学、锆石微量元素和Hf同位素地球化学特征研究,以此调查其岩浆源区特征,探讨其形成机制并试图探究其成矿潜力。纳如松多矿区石英闪长岩锆石U-Pb年龄为(85.2±1.1)Ma,早于矿区内大规模成矿事件,为晚白垩世岩浆活动的产物。石英闪长岩锆石稀土元素表现为LREE亏损、HREE富集的左倾配分模式,并具有明显的负Eu异常和正Ce异常特征,δEu变化于0.06~0.36之间,δCe变化于5.85~248.22之间。石英闪长岩的锆石176Hf/177Hf分布于0.282 679~0.282 766之间,εHf(t)值变化于-1.44~1.70,单阶段模式年龄TDM集中于679~804 Ma,二阶段模式年龄TDM2值集中于1047~1245 Ma之间。综合分析显示纳如松多矿区石英闪长岩来自于地幔和地壳2个不同的源区,并结晶于陆壳环境。纳如松多铅锌矿区石英闪长岩锆石的Ce(Ⅳ)/Ce(Ⅲ)比值除个别点外均低于100,且δEu集中于0.04~0.22之间,远小于0.4,为还原性岩体,由此推断石英闪长岩还原性的岩浆岩特征可能是其未能具有成矿能力的原因之一。     

河南前河金矿蚀变岩磁化率特征与金矿化关系探讨

河南前河金矿为构造蚀变岩型金矿,矿体和围岩呈渐变接触关系,界线模糊,但矿体、围岩和各种蚀变岩的磁化率有着明显的差别,利用WCL-1便携接触式磁化率仪对前河金矿各中段和勘探线的蚀变岩进行了系统的磁化率测量,各典型蚀变岩的磁化率从大到小依次为,绿泥石化(Ch)→硅化绿泥石化(Si Ch)→绿泥石化硅化(Ch Si)→钾长石化(Kf)→硅化(Si)→黄铁绢英岩化(Py Se Si)。蚀变岩磁化率与其金矿化程度的相关性分析表明,二者总体上呈负相关的相关趋势。绘制了78和83勘探线的磁化率剖面图和矿区磁化率-金品位等值线垂直纵投影图,初步预测了矿区的深部找矿方向。     

Phosphate and sulfate-phosphate mineralization in sillimanite-bearing rocks at the Kyakhta deposit,western Transbaikal region

The phosphate and sulfate-phosphate minerals in the sillimanite-bearing rocks of the Kyakhta deposit are considered. The mineral assemblages of the high-Al rocks were formed during prograde and retrograde stages of metamorphism. The first stage is characterized by the formation of sillimanite, corundum, muscovite, quartz, rutile, titanohematite, magnetite, feldspar, biotite, lazulite, and wagnerite. The muscovite composition showed that sillimanite paragenesis was formed at temperatures above 510–600°C. According to oxygen isotope thermometry, the minimum metamorphic temperature for quartz and titanohematite is 690°C. Andalusite, diaspore, quartz, pyrophyllite, muscovite, and a wide range of phosphates and sulfate-phosphates crystallized during the retrograde stage. The decrease in temperature and increase in the water content led to the following sequence of mineral formation: Mg-Fe-Al-Ca-REE-rich phosphates (lazulite, scorzalite, augelite, apatite, and monazite) → Ca-Sr sulfate-phosphates (woodhouseite and svanbergite) → sulfate (barite) → Sr-Ca-Ba aluminophosphates (goyazite, crandallite, and gorceixite). The chemical compositions of phosphates and sulfate-phosphates minerals and their formation conditions are discussed.     

Dispersed mineralization in granitic rocks in the Dukat ore field,the Russian Northeast: Sources and relationship with epithermal gold-silver and silver-base-metal ores

The dispersed mineralization in the Late Cretaceous leucogranite of the Dukat ore field comprises melanocratic high-sulfide epidote-feldspar, pyroxene-feldspar and low-sulfide allanite-fluorite-feldspar inclusions in greisenized intrusions. The silver-base-metal mineralization is composed of pyrite, pyrrhotite, small particles of Pb, Zn, Sn, Ag, and Sb sulfides and oxides, their native species, and intermetallic compounds; the rare-metal mineralization consists of REE, Th, U, Ti, Zr, Nb, Ta, and W oxides, silicates, and aluminosilicates. The isotopic Nd, Sr, and Pb isotopic compositions and geochemical characteristics of the mineralized inclusions, rock-forming minerals of granitoids, hydrothermal minerals of preore metasomatic propylites and orebodies at the Dukat deposit show that their components have been taken from heterogeneous domains of the Paleozoic juvenile continental crust of the Siberian Platform.
