Lithospheric stress in Mongolia,from earthquake source data

Lithospheric stress in Mongolia has been studied using mechanisms of 84 M_(LH)≥ 4 earthquakes that occurred in the 20 th century and instrumental seismic moments of 17,375 M_(LH)≥2.5 events recorded between 1970 and 2000.The M_(LH)≥ 3.5 earthquakes mostly have strike-slip mechanisms in southern and central Mongolia,with frequent reverse-slip motions in the west and normal slip in the north,especially,in the area of Lake Hovsgol.The principal stresses are,respectively,S_HS_vS_h in the center and in the south;high horizontal compression with S_HS_hS_v in the west;and a heterogeneous stress pattern with S_vS_HS_h in the north.According to seismic moments of M_(LH)=2.5 events,oblique slip generally predominates over the territory,at S_v≈S_HS_h,while frequent strike slip motions in the west record high horizontal compression(S_HS_vS_h).Earthquake mechanisms show the principal horizontal compression S_H to be directed W-E in the east,NE-SW in the central and Gobi-Altay regions,and approximately N-S in the west of Mongolia.The patterns of principal lithospheric stresses in the territory of Mongolia have undergone three events of dramatic change for a few recent decades,and these events were synchronous with three similar events in the Baikal rift system(BRS):in the latest 1960 s,latest 1970 s to earliest 1980 s,and in the latest 1980 s to earliest 1990 s.The seismicity of Mongolia has been controlled by superposition of variable stresses associated with rifting activity pulses in the neighbor BRS on the background of quasi-stationary super-regional compression.     

The positions of H+, Li+ and Na+ impurities in beryl

Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) measurements show that Li⁺ impurities are located at two different positions in beryl, one in the crystal lattice and the other in the crystal channel. The position of the Li⁺ impurity in the lattice is generally assumed to be at the site of a missing Be²⁺ ion. It is shown that this is not the case, but that the Li⁺ ion is located in a tetrahedron formed by the oxygens of one side of the Be tetrahedron and the nearest oxygen in the channel ring. This Li site has the coordinates (0.423, 0.344, 0.167) and can only be occupied when the neighbouring Be site is empty. There are four such sites around every Be tetrahedron at the distance of 1.46 Å from the Be site. The distance from the Li site to the oxygens of the Li tetrahedron is 1.84 Å. This compares favourably with the much smaller distance of 1.65 Å in the Be tetrahedron. Protons in beryl are trapped at or near these Li sites. Na⁺ is known to be located at the 2b position at the center of the silicate rings, where it is stabilized by one water molecule located at each of the two surrounding 2a sites. This is also the position of Li⁺ in the beryl channel. It is found that the presence of Na⁺ in the ring of six oxygens reduces the radius of this ring. The Na⁺ impurity has also been supposed to be located at position 2a alone and at 2b stabilized by only one water molecule. It is now proposed that Na⁺ and H₂O are located together in the Al–Be plane when only one water molecule is associated with Na⁺. The water oxygen is located at or near 2a and Na is closer to the Be site in tetrahedral beryl and closer to the Al site in octahedral beryl. It is proposed that the water protons are also located in the Al–Be plane, which would mean that there exists a third type of water in beryl. The origin of protons and OH^? ions in beryl is discussed and it is suggested that the plugs in the beryl channels are CO ₃ ^2? ions. Diffusion of OH^? ions and natural radiation may have led to the creation of NO₃ and the blue colour of Maxixe beryl.     

Relations entre production organique et apports terrigènes dans les sédiments fluviatiles holocènes : observations et conclusions hétérodoxes

Accumulation of organic matter in fens of fluvial valleys is often related to a low terrigenous matter delivery and to palaeoenvironmental conditions inducing low mechanical erosion. These assumptions come from the interpretation of contents in organic (MO) and mineral (MM) matters in sediments, expressed in percents, and then exactly anticorrelated. Calculation of mass accumulation rates of MO $(T_{{\mathrm{a}}_{\mathrm{MO}}})$ and MM $(T_{{\mathrm{a}}_{\mathrm{MM}}})$, expressed in g?m^?2?yr^?1, shows that $T_{{\mathrm{a}}_{\mathrm{MO}}}$ and $T_{{\mathrm{a}}_{\mathrm{MM}}}$ generally are not anticorrelated and that high values of $T_{{\mathrm{a}}_{\mathrm{MO}}}$ and $T_{{\mathrm{a}}_{\mathrm{MM}}}$ could appear simultaneously. That expression of MO and MM accumulation makes it possible to precise the climatic and human impact on sedimentation. To cite this article: J.-J. Macaire et al., C. R. Geoscience 337 (2005).     

Petrological geodynamics of mantle melting III. AlphaMELTS + multiphase flow: The effect of water

The influence of water is evaluated in this last contribution of a series aiming to study the petrological and dynamic evolution of mantle melting. Water is considered to be either a chemical component in the melt or solid assemblage but it can also be present as a pure water phase in a oversaturated environment. A three-phase-flow model was developed for this purpose.Only a limited set of conditions has been applied to the 1-D upwelling mantle column. A range of fixed temperatures (1150–1450 °C) and water contents in the solid mantle (0, 0.02 wt.%, 0.2 ​wt.%) have been imposed at the entry point (120 ​km deep) for the two melting models introduced in the previous installments, dynamic equilibrium melting (DEM) and dynamic fractional melting (DFM) model.As expected, for a given temperature at the base of the mantle column, the depth of the first melt formation increases with higher water content in the mantle. After the first melt is created, very negligible amount of melt is formed over a certain depth interval which approximately ends at the depth where the first melting of the dry mantle would take place. However melt is present as a dynamic phase thorough the entire region regardless whether the DEM or DFM model has been applied.Under a quasi-steady state regime, the melt and residual mantle compositions vary significantly over depth, depending on the conditions imposed to the model (DEM, DFM, bottom temperature and water content). Several distinctions can be made at the extraction point (top of the mantle column ​= ​15 ​km deep). For DEM and DFM models at this lowest depth, the most influential factor affecting the melt composition after the quasi-steady state condition has been reached is the temperature at the base of the column. In general, for a high temperature model, the input water in the mantle does not seem to play a significant role on the bulk composition of the melt (except for the water content in melt). But at low temperature water does have some noticeable influence on the variation of some chemical components in melt ($Si{O}_2$, $F{e}_2{O}_3$, $CaO$, $N{a}_{2}O$ at T ​= ​1250 °C or lower). A similar conclusion can be made also for the residual mantle composition. The presence of a dynamic free water phase is detected only in absence of melt or in coexistence with a melt phase when the mantle is relatively cold (bottom temperature $\le$1250 °C) and the input water content at the base of the model is relatively high (0.2 ​wt.%).Complete output data for several numerical simulations and six animations illustrating various melting models are available following the instructions in the supplementary material.

MANGANESE TOURMALINES

The role of manganese in the chemical composition and coloring of tourmaline is discussed. It is shown that manganese tourmaline-tsilaisite is similar to tourmaline-elbaite in composition and condition formation. The miscibility in the sherlite-elbaite-tsilaisite system is complete, but in the sherlite-dravite-tsilaisite system there is a gap between the dravite and tsilaisite, similar to the relationship between dravite and elbaite.

Manganese may be present in tourmaline in the form of Mn²⁺ and Mn³⁺. The pink coloring of the tourmaline is caused by Mn³⁺. This conclusion has been drawn from data provided by many authors on the nature of pink coloring of tourmaline, the dyeing properties of Mn²⁺ and Mn³⁺, the possibility of the existence of Mn³⁺ during the crystallization of pink tourmaline, and the distribution of manganese in differently colored tourmaline. --auth.
