四川大渡河黑金台子金矿成矿流体稀土元素地球化学

黑金台子金矿位于青藏高原东缘,赋存于大渡河剪切带的次级剪切带中。本文在对矿床成矿流体包裹体测试的基础上,通过对石英流体包裹体中的稀土元素、单矿物石英中的稀土元素、含金石英脉全岩稀土元素、赋矿围岩的稀土元素特征的研究,并结合区域上康定杂岩的稀土元素特征,讨论了成矿流体来源,证实了黑金台子金矿成矿流体具有深部来源的特征。石英流体包裹体中的稀土元素含量变化于1846.4×10-12～16003.4×10-12之间,分配模式为平坦型,具有轻重稀土元素分馏作用特征,明显不同于矿区外围元古宙康定杂岩中不同类型岩石的稀土元素特征,而类似于矿区赋矿岩石的特征。     

云南澜沧老厂大型银多金属矿床碳、氧同位素组成及其意义

文章系统研究了老厂矿床的碳酸盐围岩和成矿方解石的碳、氧同位素组成.研究表明,相对于区域地层,矿区碳酸盐岩围岩普遍亏损18O;成矿方解石的碳氧同位素总体上具有明显的正相关性,这些特征表明成矿流体与围岩发生了大规模的水岩反应.文章初步建立了水岩反应的理想模式,根据该模式进一步将成矿方解石划分为矿体中心相和边缘相2组.水岩反应理论模拟表明:总体上成矿流体中的可溶性碳以H2CO3为主,中心相成矿流体的δ13C、δ18O值分别为-5.5‰和+4‰,具有典型深部岩浆流体的特征;边缘相成矿流体的δ13C、δ18O值分别为-1.5‰和+4‰,代表了深部岩浆流体与下渗天水共同交代碳酸盐岩围岩后的碳、氧同位素特征.

内生金矿床的成矿流体

流体具有媒介和作用剂的双重属性,流体作用贯穿于整个内生金矿成矿作用过程.不同地区、不同类型金矿床具有相似的原始成矿流体——来源于上地幔或下地壳的、富含SiO₂、挥发份、成矿元素的C-H-O体系.在从深部至浅部的运移过程中受岩石建造性质、岩石(层)中流体成分的混入以及水-岩反应等因素作用,原始的成矿流体物理化学性质、组成成分等发生了不同程度的改变,最终形成直接导致金矿化的成矿流体.造成成矿流体中金等成矿物质发生沉淀的主要原因是流体的沸腾作用、流体中挥发份的逸失、流体相的分离作用、不同类型流体之间的混合作用以及热液蚀变(水-岩反应)作用等.

云南者桑金矿床元素地球化学特征及其地质意义

为探讨云南者桑金矿床的成矿构造背景、成矿流体及物质来源,对与金矿化相关的岩矿石及石英脉进行了主、微量元素特征研究。研究表明,主量元素的K2O/Na2O-Si O2判别图解及F1-F2判别图解显示本区二叠系上统吴家坪组(P3w)地层构造背景处于被动大陆边缘,母岩物源区呈现由火成岩物源区向沉积物物源区演化的趋势。石英脉稀土元素特征指示本区成矿流体呈还原及弱酸性环境,成矿流体来源总体以壳源为主。岩矿石稀土元素特征表明成矿物质主要来源于富含有机质的吴家坪组含金岩石建造,金成矿晚于印支期基性岩浆活动,推测燕山期成矿更为合理。

相山铀矿田西部地区深部多金属矿化成矿年代与成矿流体演化:Rb-Sr同位素体系的制约

江西相山铀矿田科学深钻3号孔在深部-700 m发现大量铅锌多金属矿化脉,垂向上呈"上铀下多金属"的分布特征。本文选取深部多金属矿脉主成矿阶段(S3)自形闪锌矿样品6件和不同阶段的毒砂、黄铁矿、方铅矿、方解石等样品12件,以及围岩全岩样品17件,进行了Rb、Sr同位素组成研究。结果表明:(1)由闪锌矿Rb-Sr等时线法确定的相山铀矿田深部多金属矿化形成于121. 0±3. 5Ma,与围岩火山岩存在较大时差,可能与晚于围岩的深部次火山有关。根据穿插关系,多金属矿化略晚于碱性交代铀矿化,但明显早于酸性交代铀矿化;(2)多金属矿化脉体中金属矿物的Rb和Sr含量分别介于0. 041×10~(-6)～1. 38×10-6和2. 35×10-6～23. 11×10-6之间,Sr同位素初始比值(87Sr/86Sr)i变化较大,介于0. 706114～0. 718814之间,平均值为0. 713579,暗示相山铀矿田深部多金属矿化的成矿物质主要来源于地壳。初始流体Sr同位素值(0. 718665)明显高于成矿时赋矿围岩(流纹英安岩为0. 714581,碎斑流纹岩为0. 714417)的Sr同位素组成,表明多金属成矿流体和物质并非来自围岩火山岩;(3)由早到晚阶段的(87Sr/86Sr)i呈明显降低的演化趋势,表明成矿流体演化过程中受到大气降水的不断稀释作用。相山矿田的铀矿和深部多金属矿化同形成于华南中生代板内伸展构造背景。     

Trace element and REE geochemistry of the Zhewang gold deposit,southeastern Guizhou Province,China

The quartz vein-type gold deposits are widely hosted by the Neoproterozoic （Xiajiang Group） epimeta- morphic clastic rock series in southeastern Guizhou Province, China. The Zhewang gold deposit studied in this paper occurs in the second lithologieal member of the Pinglue Formation of the Xiajiang Group. Trace element geochemis- try of host rocks, quartz veins and arsenopyrite has revealed that ore-forming fluid was enriched in sulphophile ele- ments such as Au, Ag, As, Sb, Pb and Zn, and simultaneously concentrated some magmaphile elements such as W and Mo, which probably provides some evidence for multi-stage mineralization or overprinting of magmatic hydro- therm. Quartz veins and arsenopyrite were characterized by depletion in HFSE and enrichment in LREE. Hf/Sm, Nb/La and Th/La imply that the ore-forming fluid was probably a NaC1-H20 solution system enriched in more C1 than F; Th/U values reflect the strong reducibility of the ore-forming fluid, coincident with the sulfide assemblages. The values of Co/Ni reflect that magmatic fluids may have partly participated in the ore-forming process and Y/Ho values have proved that the ore-forming fluid was associated with metamorphism and exotic hydrotherm which has reformed former quartz veins during late mineralization. The concentrations of REE, Eu anomalies and Ce anomalies of this deposit display that ore-forming elements mainly were derived from host rocks and possibly from a mixed deep source, and the ore-forming fluid was mixed by dominant metamorphic fluid and minor other sources. The physical-chemical conditions of ore-forming fluid changed from the initial stage to the late stage. The metamorphic fluid is responsible for the mineralization. Therefore, the Zhewang gold deposit is classified as a quartz vein-type gold deposit which may have been reformed by magmatic fluids during the late stage.     

Geological and geochemical characteristics and formation mechanisms of the Zhaishang Carlin-like type gold deposit,western Qinling Mountains,China

Located in the western part of the Min–Li metallogenic belt within the western Qinling Mountains, the Zhaishang gold deposit is a giant Carlin-like disseminated gold deposit discovered recently. The ore deposit is present both in rocks of low grade metamorphic Middle Devonian and Lower Permian clastic formation, which is composed of quartz sandstone, siltstone, calcareous slate and argillaceous limestone. Gold mineralization is strictly controlled by a fault zone. Minerals in ores are quite complex and consist of sulfides, sulfosalt, oxides, sulfate, carbonate, tungstate, telluride, native metals, and polymetallic alloys. The diversity of mineral in the ores and the existence of microscopic visible native gold constitute the outstanding features of the gold deposit.We believe that the mineral source of the ore deposit has a close connection with the host rocks, because all samples show the light of the REE distribution patterns. The S, C, Pb, H and O isotopic compositions show that the ore-forming elements were mainly derived from the country rocks, the underlying rocks, and partially deep sources. Data obtained suggest that the ore-forming fluids were derived predominantly from an active meteoric groundwater system. Mineralization and related alteration have features of a low water/rock ratio. Ore-forming temperatures are estimated to have been in the range from 120 to 240 °C. The dissolution of ferruginous limestone in the host rocks and the sulfidation of the dissolved iron by H₂S introduced by ore fluids constituted not only the most important depositional mechanisms for the existence of microscopic visible gold grains but also favorable conditions for gold enrichment in the Zhaishang gold deposit.     

江西相山铀矿田深部多金属矿化中黄铁矿微量元素地球化学特征

在对相山铀矿田的深部勘查过程中陆续发现了一批铅、锌、银、铜多金属矿化,利用ICP-MS方法对多金属矿化中的重要金属矿物黄铁矿进行了微量元素分析。结果表明,黄铁矿中富集Co、Ni、Cu、Zn、Cd、Sb、Tl、Pb、Bi等微量元素。对比黄铁矿与矿区出露的主要岩浆岩和基底变质岩的LREE/HREE、(La/Yb)N、Y/Ho、Zr/Hf和Nb/Ta特征参数,结果表明多金属成矿流体在上升运移过程中受到变质基底的强烈混染。LREE富集,Hf/Sm、Nb/La和Th/La值小于1的特征表明多金属矿化成矿流体并非为富F流体,与铀成矿流体具有较大差异。微量元素Co含量与Co/Ni特征值显示矿化形成于中低温环境,成矿物质主要来自于基底变质岩。     

Study on the evolution of ore-formation fluids for Au-Sb ore deposits and the mechanism of Au-Sb paragenesis and differentiation in the southwestern part of Guizhou Province, China

Ore deposits (occurrences) of Au, As, Sb, Hg, etc. distributed in Southwest Guizhou constitute the important portion of the low-temperature metallogenic domain covering a large area in Southwest China, with the Carlin-type Au and Sb deposits being the most typical ones. In this paper the Au and Sb ore deposits are taken as the objects of study. Through the petrographic analysis, microthermomitric measurement and Raman spectrophic analysis of fluid inclusions in gangue minerals and research on the S and C isotopic compositions in the gold ore deposits we can reveal the sources of ore-forming materials and ore-forming fluids and the rules of ore fluid evolution. Ore deposits of Au, Sb, etc. are regionally classified as the products of ore fluid evolution, and their ore-forming materials and ore fluids were probably derived mainly from the deep interior of the Earth. Fluid inclusion studies have shown that the temperatures of Au mineralization are within the range of 170-361℃,the salinities are 0.35 wt%-8 wt% NaCl eq.; the temperatures of Sb mineralization are 129.4-214℃ and the salinities are 0.18 wt%- 3.23 wt% NaCl eq.; the ore-forming fluid temperatures and salinities tend to decrease progressively. In the early stage (Au metallogenic stage) the ore-forming fluids contained large amounts of volatile components such as CO2, CH4, N2 and H2S, belonging to the H2O-CO2-NaCl fluid system; in the late stage (Sb metallogenic stage) the ore-forming fluids belong to the Sb-bearing H2O-NaCl system. The primitive ore-forming fluids may have experienced at least two processes of immiscibility: (1) when early ore-bearing hydrothermal solutions passed through rock strata of larger porosity or fault broken zones, CO2, CH4, N2 would escape from them, followed by the release of pressure, resulting in pressure release and boiling of primitive homogenous fluids, thereafter giving rise to their phase separation, thus leading to Au unloading and mineralization; and (2) in the late stage (Sb metallogenic stage ) a large volume of meteoric water was involved in the ore-forming fluids, leading to fluid boiling as a result of their encounter, followed by the drop of fluid temperature. As a result, the dissolubility of Sb decreased so greatly that Sb was enriched and precipitated as ores. Due to differences in physic-chemical conditions between Au and Sb precipitates, Au and Sb were respectively precipitated in different structural positions, thus creating such a phenomenon of Au/Sb paragenesis and differentiation in space.     

安徽沙坪沟斑岩钼矿床赋矿岩体钾质交代作用及其微量元素和Sr-Nd同位素响应

以沙坪沟钼矿主要的赋矿岩石——石英正长岩和花岗斑岩为对象,通过对比不同蚀变强度岩石的岩相学、岩石地球化学和同位素特征,研究该矿床的钾质交代作用-矿化特征,探讨不同热液蚀变的元素组合、蚀变过程中的元素迁移和Sr-Nd同位素的变化及其成因、不同蚀变的物理化学条件差异及其与矿化的关系,进而揭示蚀变-成矿热液流体的特征和起源。研究表明,石英正长岩和花岗斑岩的地球化学特征总体相似,显示其属同源岩浆演化产物,二者均受到钾质蚀变,但蚀变强度相差较大。钾质蚀变岩石的化学成分表现为高K_2O、Rb和低Na_2O、CaO、Sr、Ba,不同蚀变强度的岩石Rb/Sr和Sr同位素组成差别较大,花岗斑岩样品数据更显离散,甚至出现异常低的锶同位素初始值,表明热液蚀变强烈改造了Rb-Sr同位素体系,而Sm-Nd体系基本保持稳定。这一现象在东秦岭-大别钼矿带中典型的斑岩钼矿床也有出现,显示该成矿带具有相似的蚀变类型、热液起源和演化特征。而且钾长石化后期至黄铁云(绢)英岩化阶段也是最主要的钼成矿期,表明这期间流体系统pH值的降低致使Mo元素从流体中沉淀成矿。对比斑岩铜、铜-钼矿床和钼矿床的蚀变特征及其过程中元素和同位素的变化可以发现,这3种矿床均发育碱质交代作用,但蚀变强度、热液的Rb-Sr分异程度及其对原岩的改造程度存在较大差异,这暗示了各自特有的成岩、成矿物质和流体来源及大地构造背景。     

Geology and mineralization of the Dayin’gezhuang supergiant gold deposit (180 t) in the Jiaodong Peninsula,China: A review

The Dayin’gezhuang gold deposit is located in the central part of the Zhaoping Fault metallogenic belt in the Jiaodong gold province —the world ’s third-largest gold metallogenic area. It is a typical successful case of prospecting at a depth of 500‒2000 m in recent years, with cumulative proven gold resources exceeding 180 t. The main orebodies (No. 1 and No. 2 orebody) generally have a pitch direction of NNE and a plunge direction of NEE. As the ore-controlling fault, the Zhaoping Fault is a shovel-shaped stepped fault, with its dip angle presenting stepped high-to-low transitions at the elevation of −2000‒0 m. The gold mineralization enrichment area is mainly distributed in the step parts where the fault plane changes from steeply to gently, forming a stepped metallogenic pattern from shallow to deep. It can be concluded from previous studies that the gold mineralization of the Dayin’gezhuang gold deposit occurred at about 120 Ma. The ore-forming fluids were H₂O-CO₂-NaCl-type hydrothermal solutions with a medium-low temperature and medium-low salinity. The H-O isotopic characteristics indicate that the fluids in the early ore-forming stage were possibly magmatic water or mantle water and that meteoric water gradually entered the ore-forming fluids in the late ore-forming stage. The S and Pb isotopes indicate that the ore-forming materials mainly originate from the lower crust and contain a small quantity of mantle-derived components. The comprehensive analysis shows that the Dayin ’gezhuang gold deposit was formed by thermal uplifting-extensional tectonism. The strong crust-mantle interactions, large-scale magmatism, and the material exchange arising from the transformation from adakitic granites to arc granites and from the ancient lower crust to the juvenile lower crust during the Early Cretaceous provided abundant fluids and material sources for mineralization. Moreover, the detachment faults formed by the rapid magmatic uplift and the extensional tectonism created favorable temperature and pressure conditions and space for fluid accumulation and gold precipitation and mineralization.©2022 China Geology Editorial Office.     

Gold deposits associated with the gabbroic rocks at Tirek area,western Hoggar,Algeria: fluid inclusion study

The Tirek gold deposit hosted in the Archean shield is one of the richest sources of mined gold for Algeria. The deposit is controlled by the East Ouzzal shear zone (EOSZ), a transcurrent N–S lithospheric fault. The EOSZ is a late Pan-African dextral-ductile shear zone separating two contrasting Precambrian domains: the Archean In Ouzzal block to the west (Orthogenesis with subordinate metasediments reworked and granulitized during the ca. 2 Ga Eburnean event) and a middle Proterozoic block to the east involved in the ca. 600 Ma Pan-African event. The auriferous quartz veins are mainly oriented in two directions, N–S veins hosted in mylonitic rocks and NE–SW veins hosted in gabbroic or gneissic bands. The NE–SW veins contain the richest ore. Gold ore is found in a system of veins and lenticular quartz veinlets arranged in anastomosing networks. The hydrothermal alteration associated with these veins is characteristically a carbonate-sericite-albite-pyrite assemblage. Gold is the main metal of economic importance; it is disseminated in the quartz as grains or fibers along microcracks and as microscopic grains in the host rocks. Microthermometric results and Raman laser data from fluid inclusions demonstrate that the ore-forming fluids contained H₂O-CO₂±CH₄ and were low salinity. Homogenization temperatures are commonly 250–310 °C. In the Tirek deposit, the role of the shear zone that hosts the mineralization was to drain the hydrothermal fluid. Interactions between the fluid and the mafic host rocks and CO₂ also contributed to the formation of the hydrothermal gold deposit at Tirek.

Geology and mineralization of the Sanshandao supergiant gold deposit (1200 t) in the Jiaodong Peninsula,China: A review

The Jiaodong Peninsula in Shandong Province, China is the world’s third-largest gold metallogenic area, with cumulative proven gold resources exceeding 5000 t. Over the past few years, breakthroughs have been made in deep prospecting at a depth of 500–2000 m, particularly in the Sanshandao area where a huge deep gold orebody was identified. Based on previous studies and the latest prospecting progress achieved by the project team of this study, the following results are summarized. (1) 3D geological modeling results based on deep drilling core data reveal that the Sanshandao gold orefield, which was previously considered to consist of several independent deposits, is a supergiant deposit with gold resources of more than 1200 t (including 470 t under the sea area). The length of the major orebody is nearly 8 km, with a greatest depth of 2312 m below sea level and a maximum length of more than 3 km along their dip direction. (2) Thick gold orebodies in the Sanshandao gold deposit mainly occur in the specific sections of the ore-controlling fault where the fault plane changes from steeply to gently inclined, forming a stepped metallogenic model from shallow to deep level. The reason for this strong structural control on mineralization forms is that when ore-forming fluids migrated along faults, the pressure of fluids greatly fluctuated in fault sections where the fault dip angle changed. Since the solubility of gold in the ore-forming fluid is sensitive to fluid pressure, these sections along the fault plane serve as the target areas for deep prospecting. (3) Thermal uplifting-extensional structures provide thermodynamic conditions, migration pathways, and deposition spaces for gold mineralization. Meanwhile, the changes in mantle properties induced the transformation of the geochemical properties of the lower crust and magmatic rocks. This further led to the reactivation of ore-forming elements, which provided rich materials for gold mineralization. (4) It can be concluded from previous research results that the gold mineralization in the Jiaodong gold deposits occurred at about 120 Ma, which was superimposed by nonferrous metals mineralization at 118–111 Ma. The fluids were dominated by primary mantle water or magmatic water. Metamorphic water occurred in the early stage of the gold mineralization, while the fluid composition was dominated by meteoric water in the late stage. The S, Pb, and Sr isotopic compositions of the ores are similar to those of ore-hosting rocks, indicating that the ore-forming materials mainly derive from crustal materials, with the minor addition of mantle-derived materials. The gold deposits in the Jiaodong Peninsula were formed in an extensional tectonic environment during the transformation of the physical and chemical properties of the lithospheric mantle, which is different from typical orogenic gold deposits. Thus, it is proposed that they are named “Jiaodong-type” gold deposits.©2021 China Geology Editorial Office.
