Hydrogen Isotopic Compositions of Pyroxenes in Nushan Peridotite Xenoliths,SE China

Hydrogen isotopic compositions of pyroxenes in peridotite xenohths from the Nushan volcano, Anhui Province, SE China have been obtained using an ion probe (Cameca 1270). D/H ratios are constant within a single grain and among the different grains from the same sample. The lack of correlation between the D/H ratios and the hydrogen contents indicates that the hydrogen isotopic compositions are inherited from their mantle source. Combining with the δD values of coexisting amphiboles, it is inferred that the Nushan mantle experienced at least a two-stage metasomatic event.One was responsible for formation of amphiboles with extremely variable δD values, and the other was probably responsible for the high δD values (up to -20‰) of some clinopyroxenes from peridotites, clinopyroxene and mica megacrysts. High δD values point to a subduction-related fluid being involved in one metasomatic event. The primary δD values (-90‰ to -140‰) of the Nushan pyroxenes, together with data gleaned from the literature, suggest that the D/H ratios of the nominally anhydrous mineral reservoir might have differed from that of the other mantle hydrogen in being relatively depleted in D.     

成煤母质形成环境对热成因煤层气氢碳同位素的影响:不同气候环境的草本沼泽泥炭热模拟实验

煤层气的成因研究可以为煤层气勘探与开发提供科学依据,然而,煤层气的氢碳同位素组成受多种因素的影响,以前较多的研究是成气母质性质和成熟度对煤层气氢碳同位素的影响,对于成煤物质形成的气候环境对热解煤层气同位素的影响尚不清楚.热解模拟了高纬度寒冷干旱和低纬度热带湿润环境的草本泥炭,对热解烃类气体的氢碳同位素组成及其差异性进行了研究.研究结果表明:与低纬度热带湿润环境中形成的草本泥炭相比较,高纬度寒冷干旱环境的草本泥炭热解甲烷、乙烷和丙烷具有轻的氢同位素组成和重的碳同位素组成,并且从泥炭连续热解至R_o分别为2.5%、3.5%和5.5%时,甲烷、乙烷和丙烷δD值分别平均降低-17‰~-10‰、-32‰~-28‰和-25‰~-17‰,甲烷和乙烷δ13C值分别平均升高2.9‰~3.6‰和0.9‰~1.1‰.认为这种同位素差异起因于气候环境对形成泥炭的植物氢碳同位素组成的影响.建立了高纬度寒冷干旱和低纬度热带湿润环境中形成的成煤有机质热解烃类气体氢碳同位素组成与R_o之间的关系式,同时也建立了烃类气体的碳和氢同位素之间的关系式.这些研究成果为不同气候环境下形成的成煤有机质生成的煤层气成因研究提供了科学依据.      

Ion microprobe isotopic measurements of individual interplanetary dust particles

Ion microprobe measurements of D/H ratios in individual fragments of eight stratospheric dust particles give δD values ranging from ?386 to +2534‰ relative to SMOW. The δD values in five particles far exceed those in terrestrial samples and prove that the samples are interplanetary dust particles (IDPs). The hydrogen isotopic composition is heterogeneous on a scale of a few microns demonstrating that the dust is unequilibrated. Measurements of D/H ratios in conjunction with elemental and molecular ion signals in different fragments of individual IDPs show that a carbonaceous phase, not water, is the carrier of the D enrichments. Previous infrared transmission measurements have shown that IDPs fall into three main spectral classes. Particles from two of those three IR classes show large D/H ratios. Two particles studied from the third class do not. However, one of these contains solar flare tracks and is extraterrestrial. Thus, most, but not all, IDPs contain hydrogen with a non-terrestrial isotopic composition.Carbon isotopic measurements on fragments of three IDPs give ratios similar to terrestrial values and show a largely uniform isotopic composition for a given particle. Small, but significant, differences in δ¹³C of ~40‰ between particles are seen. No correlations between the hydrogen and carbon isotopic compositions are observed.The magnesium and silicon isotopic compositions of fragments of three IDPs are found to be normal within measurement errors.     

汉诺坝幔源单斜辉石巨晶氢同位素组成的离子探针分析:微尺度不均一性

运用离子探针技术测定了河北汉诺坝新生代玄武岩中3个单斜辉石巨晶的氢同位素组成,结果显示同一颗粒内部表现出微尺度的不均一性,2mm范围内δD的变化达到60‰。δD和氢含量之间不存在同步的变化,巨晶内部的化学成分均一,因此我们认为巨晶的氢同位素不均一性继承自母岩浆。母岩浆的氢同位素变化可能是去气过程中气相与熔体之间的分馏引起的。单斜辉石巨晶形成后很短的时间内即被寄主岩浆带至地表并经历了快速淬火。     

松辽盆地庆深气田异常氢同位素组成成因研究

对松辽盆地徐家围子断陷庆深气田天然气组分、碳氢同位素和稀有气体同位素的分析表明,天然气以烷烃气为主,烷烃气碳同位素组成随着碳数增加呈变轻趋势,且δ13C1＆gt;-30‰, R/Ra一般大于1.0,δ13CCO2值介于-16.5‰~-5.1‰之间;氢同位素组成δD1=-205‰~-197‰,平均值为-203‰,δD2=-247‰~-160‰,平均值为-195‰,δD3=-237‰~-126‰,平均值为-163‰,且存在氢同位素组成倒转现象,即δD1＆gt;δD2＆lt;δD3。根据对庆深气田天然气不同地球化学特征分析,认为该气田烷烃气中重烃主要为有机成因,而 CH4有相当无机成因混入。庆深气田烷烃气氢同位素组成具有 CH4变化小,而重烃（δD2,δD3）变化大的特点。根据与朝阳沟地区天然气烷烃气氢同位素组成对比分析,认为 CH4主要表现为无机成因,而重烃气（δD2,δD3）主要为有机成因,且无机成因CH4氢同位素组成重于有机成因CH4。     

祁连山冻土区天然气水合物分解气碳氢同位素组成特征

开展祁连山冻土区天然气水合物气体同位素研究,是解决其气体成因、来源等科学问题的一个重要手段。本研究采集祁连山南麓多年冻土区水合物科学钻探DK2和DK3孔共8个含水合物的岩芯样品,采用真空顶空法收集样品中水合物的分解气,分别用气相色谱(GC)、气相色谱同位素比值质谱(GC-IRMS)测定其气体成分和同位素组成,测试结果表明:祁连山冻土区天然气水合物样品的气体碳氢同位素变化较大,甲烷、乙烷和丙烷的碳同位素(δ13C)变化范围分别为-52.6‰～-48.1‰、-38.6‰～-30.7‰和-34.7‰～-21.2‰,而二氧化碳的碳同位素(δ13C)最低为-27.9‰,最高为16.7‰;甲烷、乙烷和丙烷的氢同位素(δD)变化范围分别为-285‰～-227‰、-276‰～-236‰和-247‰～-198‰。通过对这些碳氢同位素进行综合研究,包括气体分子组成与同位素的关系分析、甲烷的碳氢同位素之间的关系判断等,结果表明研究区天然气水合物的气体主要来源于热解气,而且是在淡水环境中形成的有机成因气。     

A stable isotope study of serpentinization and metamorphism in the Highland Border Suite,Scotland, U.K.

$\text{D}\text{H}$ and ${}^{18}\text{O}{}^{16}\text{O}$ ratios have been measured for whole-rock samples and mineral separates from the mafic and ultramatic rocks of the Cambro-Ordovician Highland Border Suite. The H- and O- isotopic compositions of these rocks record individual stages in a relatively complex 500 Myr old hydrothermal/metamorphic history. Lizardite serpentinites (δD ～ ? 105‰; δ¹⁸O ～ + 6.2‰) record a premetamorphic history and indicate that parent harzburgites, dunites, and pyroxenites were serpentinized through low-temperature interaction with meteoric waters during cooling. The other rocks of the Highland Border Suite record subsequent interaction with metamorphic fluids. Amphibolite facies hornblende schists were produced through thrust-related (dynamothermal) metamorphism of spilitic pillow lavas. During dehydration, D-enriched fluids were driven off from the spilites thus leaving the hornblende schists to equilibrate with a relatively D-depleted internal fluid reservoir (δD ～ ? 45‰). The expelled D-enriched fluids may have mixed with more typical Dalradian metamorphic waters which then exchanged with the remaining mafic rocks and lizardite serpentinites during greenschist facies regional metamorphism to produce antigorite serpentinites (δD ～ ? 62‰; δ¹⁸O ～ + 8‰) and greenschist metaspilites (δD ～ ? 57‰; δ¹⁸O ～ + 7.3‰) with similar H- and O-isotopic compositions. Serpentinites which have been only partially metamorphosed show intermediate H-isotopic compositions between that of metamorphic antigorite (δD ～ ? 62‰) and non-metamorphic lizardite δD ～ ? 105‰) end members.     

Isotope and fluid inclusion geochemistry of the Cangyuan Pb-Zn-Ag polymetallic deposit in Yunnan,SW China

The Cangyuan Pb-Zn-Ag polymetallic deposit is located in the Baoshan Block, southern Sanjiang Orogen. The orebodies are hosted in low-grade metamorphic rocks and skarn in contact with Cenozoic granitic rocks. Studies on fluid inclusions (FIs) of the deposit indicate that the ore-forming fluids are CO₂-bearing, NaCl-H₂O. The initial fluids evolved from high temperatures (462–498 °C) and high salinities (54.5–58.4 wt% NaCl equiv) during the skarn stage into mesothermal (260–397 °C) and low salinities (1.2–9.5 wt% NaCl equiv) during the sulfide stage. The oxygen and hydrogen isotopic compositions (δ¹⁸O_H2O: 2.7–8.8‰; δD: −82 to −120‰) suggest that the ore-forming fluids are mixture of magmatic fluids and meteoric water. Sulfur isotopic compositions of the sulfides yield δ³⁴S values of −2.3 to 3.2‰; lead isotopic compositions of ore sulfides are similar to those of granitic rocks, indicating that the sulfur and ore-metals are derived from the granitic magma. We propose that the Cangyuan Pb-Zn-Ag deposit formed from magmatic hydrothermal fluids. These Cenozoic deposits situated in the west of Lanping-Changdu Basin share many similarities with the Cangyuan in isotopic compositions, including the Laochang, Lanuoma and Jinman deposits. This reveals that the Cenozoic granites could have contributed to Pb-Zn-Cu mineralization in the Sanjiang region despite the abundance of Cenozoic Pb-Zn deposits in the region, such as the Jingding Pb-Zn deposit, that is thought to be of basin brine origin.     

Geochemistry of stable oxygen and hydrogen isotopes in minerals and corundum-bearing rocks in northern Karelia as an indicator of their unusual genesis

The paper presents newly obtained data on the oxygen and hydrogen isotopic composition of minerals in corundum occurrences and their host rocks in northern Karelia. Minerals in the Khitoostrov and Varaka corundum-bearing zones have extremely low δ¹⁸O (lower than ?26‰) and δ D (lower than ?215‰), which suggest that the mineral-forming process involved glacial waters and that the minerals preserve the isotopic ratios of their protolith. Aluminous corundum plagioclasites were produced by high-pressure Svecofennian (1.9-1.8 Ga) metamorphism of Paleoproterozoic rocks that had been metasomatized with the involvement of meteoric waters during the Guronian glaciation epoch.     

云南会泽超大型铅锌矿床C、O同位素地球化学

云南会泽超大型铅锌矿床规模大、品位富、伴生有用元素多,预示其成矿环境较为特殊。本文分析该矿床矿石中脉石矿物方解石和赋矿碳酸盐地层的C、O同位素组成,结果表明矿石中脉石矿物方解石的C、O同位素组成相对均一,不同矿体(不同标高)、不同产状以及相同矿体不同产状方解石的C、O同位素组成不具明显差别,其δ13CPDB值和δ18OSMOW值分别为-2.1‰～-3.5‰(均值-2.8‰)和16.7‰～18.6‰(均值17.7‰),在δ13CPDB-δ18OSMOW图上集中于岩浆碳酸岩与海相碳酸盐岩之间的狭小范围内。多方面的证据表明:矿床成矿流体为壳-幔混合流体,其中壳源组分可能主要由矿区(或区域)碳酸盐地层提供,而幔源组分则可能与区域大面积峨眉山玄武岩岩浆活动过程中的去气作用有关。     

The use of environmental markers to identify groundwater salinization sources in a Neogene basin, Kert aquifer case, NE Morocco

Environmental isotopes data of oxygen and hydrogen of natural water and sulphur and oxygen of dissolved sulphate as well as characteristics of d-excess are used to illustrate the salinity origin in Kert aquifer NE Morocco. In this study, 14 groundwater samples and surface water of the Kert River were collected in the Kert plain during December 2008, and were combined with previously collected hydrochemical data. The isotope compositions of these waters range from ?5.74 to ?4.51 ‰ for oxygen and from ?40.8 to ?34.1 ‰ for hydrogen. In Kert River these values are ?6.47 ‰ for oxygen and ?47.56 ‰ for hydrogen. All the samples with a slope <8 do not fall on the meteoric water line indicating a light evaporation. Water has low and different d-excess values (ranging from +1.37 to +9.82 ‰), reflecting different climatic conditions. Based on the nitrate concentration water in the Kert aquifer comes from the modern precipitation. The isotope compositions range from ?2.2 to +16 ‰ for sulphur and from +5.02 to +13.86 ‰ for oxygen. In Kert River these values are ?4.6 and +5.3 ‰ for sulphur and oxygen, respectively. There are fairly constant difference between oxygen of water and the oxygen of sulphate suggesting a dominant control of this latter in sulphate sources. At least three major sulphate sources were identified by the isotope data from sulphate in these waters: (1) dissolved marine sulphate from the underlying upper Miocene unit; (2) dissolved sulphate from Kert River; (3) sulphate derived from oxidation of sulphur compounds in the metamorphic massif of Temsamane. The latter has a dilution role. The isotopic variations of these waters and sulphate concentration therein reflect mixing of these sources in the aquifer.     

Stable isotopic compositions of Recent freshwater cyanobacterial carbonates from the British Isles: local and regional environmental controls

Recent (<50 years old) freshwater cyanobacterial carbonates from diverse environments (streams, lakes, waterfalls) throughout Britain and Ireland were analysed for their stable carbon and oxygen isotope compositions. The mean δ¹⁸O value of ?5–9‰ PDB for river and stream data represents calcite precipitation in equilibrium with the mean oxygen isotopic composition of precipitation in central Britain (?7–5‰SMOW) assuming a mean water temperature of 9°C. The mean δ¹⁸O of lake data, ?4–5‰ PDB, is statistically different, reflecting the effects of residence time and/or variations in the oxygen isotopic composition of rainfall. Carbon isotopes have wide variations in both fluviatile and lake data sets (+ 3 to ?12‰ PDB). These variations are principally controlled in the fluviatile samples by contribution of isotopically light ‘soil zone’ carbon relative to isotopically heavier carbon from limestone aquifer rock dissolution. Lake samples have the heaviest carbon isotope values, reflecting a trend toward isotopic equilibrium between atmospheric CO₂ and aqueous HCO^?₃. We infer that isotopic compositions of ancient cyanobacterial carbonates should also record environmental information, although the effects of stabilization and diagenesis on primary δ¹⁸O values will need careful consideration. Primary carbon isotope compositions should be well preserved, although in marine samples values will be buffered by the isotopic composition of aqueous marine bicarbonate.     

Hydrogen and oxygen isotopic compositions of sedimentary kaolin deposits,Egypt: Paleoclimatic implications

The clay fractions of sedimentary kaolin deposits representing different ages (Carboniferous and Cretaceous), types (pisolitic flint and plastic), and localities (Sinai and Aswan) from Egypt were analyzed for their H and O isotopic compositions to examine the paleoclimate conditions during their formation. The δD values of the Carboniferous deposits in Sinai range between −67‰ and −88‰, while the values for the Cretaceous deposits in Sinai range between −59‰ and −75‰. The δ¹⁸O values of the Carboniferous deposits range from 17.9‰ to 19.4‰ and the values for the Cretaceous deposits range between 19.2‰ and 20.4‰. The relatively low δD and δ¹⁸O values of the Carboniferous deposit at the Abu Natash area (−67‰ and 17.9‰, respectively) compared to other Carboniferous deposits (averages of −83.3‰, and 18.8‰ for δD and δ¹⁸O, respectively) could be due to isotopic exchange between this deposit and the adjacent dolomite and/or the enclosed hydrothermally-formed Mn ores of the Carboniferous Um Bogma Formation. The δD and δ¹⁸O values of the Cretaceous pisolitic flint kaolin deposit from Aswan (averages of −65‰ and 20.3‰, respectively) and plastic kaolin from the same area (averages of −66‰ and 19.5‰, respectively) are almost identical. The differences in the δ¹⁸O values between the clay fractions of the pisolitic flint kaolin (20.3‰) and the previously analyzed bulk kaolin of the same deposit (average of 17.5‰) suggest a significant effect of non-clay minerals on the isotopic compositions of the kaolin deposits.The H and O isotopic compositions plot close to the kaolinite line that marks the isotopic composition of kaolinite in equilibrium with meteoric water at 20 °C. This indicates that the kaolinite from both the Carboniferous and Cretaceous deposits in Egypt formed by meteoric water weathering of the source rock(s). The δD and δ¹⁸O values also suggest that kaolinite of these deposits formed under warm-temperate to tropical conditions. The slight deviations of some samples from the kaolinite line suggest post-depositional modifications of the isotopic compositions of studied deposits probably due to the interaction between earlier-formed kaolinite and downward percolating meteoric water.The δD and δ¹⁸O values of the Cretaceous and Carboniferous deposits from all localities suggest that both deposits formed under similar climatic conditions due to the location of Egypt at almost the same distance from the equator either to the south during the Carboniferous or to the north during the Cretaceous.     

Oxygen and Hydrogen Isotopes of Waters in the Ordos Basin,China: Implications for Recharge of Groundwater in the North of Cretaceous Groundwater Basin

Hundreds of precipitation samples collected from meteorological stations in the Ordos Basin from January 1988 to December 2005 were used to set up a local meteoric water line and to calculate weighted average isotopic compositions of modern precipitation. Oxygen and hydrogen isotopes, with averages of ?7.8‰ and ?53.0‰ for δ18O and δD, respectively, are depleted in winter and rich in spring, and gradually decrease in summer and fall, illustrating that the seasonal effect is considerable. They also show that the isotopic difference between south portion and north portion of the Ordos Basin are not obvious, and the isotope in the middle portion is normally depleted. The isotope compositions of 32 samples collected from shallow groundwater (less than a depth of 150 m) in desert plateau range from ?10.6‰ to ?6.0‰ with an average of ?8.4‰ for δ18O and from ?85‰ to ?46‰ with an average of ?63‰ for δD. Most of them are identical with modern precipitation. The isotope compositions of 22 middle and deep groundwaters (greater than a depth of 275 m) fall in ranges from ?11.6‰ to ?8.8‰ with an average of ?10.2‰ for δ18O and from ?89‰ to ?63‰ with an average of ?76‰ for δD. The average values are significantly less than those of modern precipitation, illustrating that the middle and deep groundwaters were recharged at comparatively lower air temperatures. Primary analysis of 14C shows that the recharge of the middle and deep groundwaters started at late Pleistocene. The isotopes of 13 lake water samples collected from eight lakes define a local evaporation trend, with a relatively flat slope of 3.77, and show that the lake waters were mainly fed by modern precipitation and shallow groundwater.     

Mg-metasomatism and formation conditions of Mg-chlorite-muscovite-quartzphyllites (leucophyllites) of the Eastern Alps (W. Hungary) and their relations to Alpine whiteschists

The lower Austroalpine orthogneiss-micachist complex of the Sopron-Fertörákos area of W. Hungary contains Mg-chlorite-muscovite-quartzphyllites (leuco- phyllite) and Mg-chlorite-bearing kyanite quartzites whose chemical compositions differ greatly from their surrounding rocks. Formation of leucophyllites took place in shear zones and was associated with depletion in alkalies and iron and enrichment of magnesium and H₂O. Mg-zonation of relict igneous muscovites of leucophyllites and changes in the whole rock chemical compositions suggest Mg-metasomatism. Material gains and losses have been assessed using the composition-volume relationship approach. Proceeding from metagranite through transition rocks to leucophyllites, MgO, H₂O, FeO, and alkalies show continuously increasing dispersion in isocon plots with Mg-enrichment even in sheared gneiss not in contact with leucophyllite. The metasomatic processes that formed the Mg-rich rocks may be similar to those responsible for the formation of high pressure whiteschists in the Central and Western Alps. The geochemical characteristics of the Dora Maira whiteschists (Italy) and their country gneisses are very similar to those of the Sopron leucophyllites, supporting the theory that Mg-metasomatism produced the whiteschist chemistry. On the basis of oxygen isotope compositions of relict igneous muscovites, the precursor granitic rock had a δ¹⁸O value around 13‰ proving its crustal anatectic origin. The leucophyllites have whole rock oxygen isotope compositions around 8.5‰ which is in conflict with the theory of an Mg-rich sedimentary protolith. Rather, the low δ¹⁸O values reflect fluid/rock interaction with a low δ¹⁸O fluid. Quartz-mineral oxygen isotope fractionations yield a metamorphic temperature of 560 ± 30 °C which agrees with earlier estimates from mineral stabilities. Silicon contents of phengites correspond to a metamorphic pressure of ～13 GPa at this temperature indicating eclogite facies metamorphism. The fluids in equilibrium with leucophyllites had oxygen isotope compositions around 7.9‰, similar to those calculated for the ultrahigh pressure Dora Maira whiteschists (7.6‰), further supporting the genetic link between the leucophyllites and whiteschists. Hydrogen isotope compositions of mixed white mica + chlorite samples from leucophyllites range from ?40 to ?35‰, correlating with chlorite contents. The calculated endmember chlorite and white mica have δD values of ?30 and ?40‰, respectively. The similar δD values of the white micas in leucophyllites, gneisses and metagranites suggest an overall equilibration with respect to H isotopes. The calculated δD value of the fluid is approximately 0‰, suggesting a seawater origin. This conclusion was also reached for the Dora Maira whiteschists. A possible fluid source that satisfies both metasomatic and isotopic data is dehydration of hydrothermally altered oceanic crust. The mafic–ultramafic complex of the Alpine Penninic unit underlying the Austroalpine nappes is a likely candidate. The subduction and subsequent dehydration of the ophiolite series would supply the Mg-rich fluids whose migration brought about the metasomatic alteration of the overlying gneiss-micaschist complexes.     

Investigation on the hydrodynamics of Ganga Alluvial Plain using environmental isotopes: a case study of the Gomati River Basin, northern India

An investigation using environmental isotopes (δ¹⁸O and δD) was conducted to gain insight into the hydrological processes of the Ganga Alluvial Plain, northern India. River-water, shallow-groundwater and lake-water samples from the Gomati River Basin were analyzed. During the winter season, the δ¹⁸O and δD compositions of the Gomati River water ranged from ?1.67 to ?7.62 ‰ and ?25.08 to ?61.50 ‰, respectively. Deuterium excess values in the river water (+0.3 to ?13 ‰) and the lake water (?20 ‰) indicate the significance of evaporation processes. Monthly variation of δ¹⁸O and δD values of the Gomati River water and the shallow groundwater follows a similar trend, with isotope-depleted peaks for δ¹⁸O and δD synchronized during the monsoon season. The isotopically depleted peak values of the river water (δ¹⁸O?=??8.30 ‰ and δD?=??57.10 ‰) can be used as a proxy record for the isotopic signature of the monsoon precipitation in the Ganga Alluvial Plain.     

贺兰山北段牛头沟金矿床成矿流体和成矿物质来源:来自H-O-S-Pb同位素的证据

贺兰山北段牛头沟金矿床为华北克拉通西北缘新发现的金矿床,包括构造破碎带蚀变岩型和石英脉型两种矿化类型,后者可进一步细分为低缓石英脉型和陡窄石英脉型2个亚类。矿区所有矿体均赋存在古元古界贺兰山群变质杂岩和混合花岗岩内,受主干断裂F_1及其上盘次级断裂体系控制。综合本文及前人研究成果表明,破碎带蚀变岩型石英流体包裹体以纯液相水溶液包裹体为主,而低缓石英脉型和陡窄石英脉型石英流体包裹体则以气液两相水溶液包裹体为主,不同矿化类型成矿流体均为中低温(160~210℃)、中低盐度(6%~12%NaCl_(eq))的H_2O-NaCl流体。对矿区内3种矿化类型石英流体包裹体和硫化物分别开展的H-O和S-Pb同位素研究显示:破碎带蚀变岩型和陡窄石英脉型流体包裹体δD_(H2O)组成相近,分别为-75.2‰~-89.3‰和-87.0‰~-93.8‰,而低缓石英脉型流体包裹体则具有较高的δD_(H2O)值(-45.7‰~-67.7‰);流体包裹体δ~(18)O_(H2O)值则由破碎带蚀变岩型(3.7‰~4.4‰)→低缓石英脉型(1.9‰~3.3‰)→陡窄石英脉型(0.5‰~0.9‰)依次降低。破碎带蚀变岩型和陡窄石英脉型δ~(34)S组成均为正值,分别为1.3‰~6.9‰和2.2‰~5.8‰,而低缓石英脉型则具有较低的δ~(34)S值(-5.1‰~-2.6‰)。低缓石英脉型金矿具有明显不同的δD_(H2O)和δ~(34)S组成,可能与含矿断裂性质及其距离导矿构造F_1断裂较远等因素所共同导致的成矿流体氧逸度升高有关。3种矿化类型对应的矿石均表现出明显富集Th放射成因Pb的特点,~(206)Pb/~(204)Pb(16.467~17.994)和~(207)Pb/~(204)Pb(15.382~15.582)组成相对均一,而~(208)Pb/~(204)Pb变化较大(37.413~42.345)。总体上,石英流体包裹体H-O同位素组成表明成矿流体均为岩浆水和大气降水形成的混合流体,其大气降水比例自破碎带蚀变岩型→低缓石英脉型→陡窄石英脉型依次升高;矿石S-Pb同位素指示成矿物质为深部岩浆和具有高Th/U比的基底围岩双重来源。结合区域构造–岩浆演化,笔者将牛头沟金矿床成矿过程概括为晚古生代裂陷盆地形成阶段、中晚侏罗世区域挤压推覆阶段和晚侏罗世至早白垩世岩浆热液活动阶段等3个阶段。

Multiple isotope composition (S, Pb, H, O, He, and Ar) and genetic implications for gold deposits in the Jiapigou gold belt, Northeast China

The Jiapigou gold belt (>150 t Au), one of the most important gold-producing districts in China, is located at the northeastern margin of the North China Craton. It is composed of 17 gold deposits with an average grade around 10 g/t Au. The deposits are hosted in Archean gneiss and TTG rocks, and are all in shear zones or fractures of varying orientations and magnitudes. The δ³⁴S values of sulfide from ores are mainly between 2.7?‰ and 10?‰. The Pb isotope characteristics of ore sulfides are different from those of the Archean metamorphic rocks and Mesozoic granites and dikes, and indicate that they have different lead sources. The sulfur and lead isotope compositions imply that the ore-forming materials might originate from multiple, mainly deep sources. Fluid inclusions in pyrite have ³He/⁴He ratios of 0.6 to 2.5 Ra, whereas their ⁴⁰Ar/³⁶Ar ratios range from 1,444 to 9,805, indicating a dominantly mantle fluid with a negligible crustal component. δ¹⁸O values calculated from hydrothermal quartz are between ?0.2?‰ and +5.9?‰, and δD values of the fluids in the fluid inclusions in quartz are from ?70?‰ to ?96?‰. These ranges suggest dominantly magmatic water with a minor meteoric component. The noble gas isotopic data, along with the stable isotopic data, suggest that the ore-forming fluids have a dominantly mantle source with minor crustal addition.     

Fluid infiltration effects on stable isotope systematics of the Susurluk skarn deposit,NW Turkey

A calcic skarn deposit occurs along the contact zone between Oligo-Miocene Çatalda? Granitoid and Mesozoic limestones in Susurluk, northwestern Turkey. The skarn zone with little or no retrograde stage is represented by fluid inclusions with high homogenization temperatures (up to >600 °C) and a wide range of salinity (12 to >70 wt.% NaCl). Pluton-derived fluids facilitated occurrence of continuous prograde reactions in the country rocks (particularly in the proximal zone) and oxygen isotopic depletion in calc-silicate and calcite minerals. δ¹⁸O of anhydrous minerals within proximal and distal zones indicate that skarn-forming fluids had a magmatic origin. The δ¹⁸O values are 5.93–9.08‰ (mean 6.8‰) for garnet, 4.08–9.94‰ (mean 6.4‰) for pyroxene, 4.89–7.92‰ (mean 6.4‰) for wollastonite and 6.65–8.28‰ (mean 7.5‰) for vesuvianite. Temperatures estimated by isotopic compositions of mineral pairs are significantly lower than those measured from the fluid inclusions, indicating that isotopic equilibrium is not preserved between the skarn minerals. δ¹⁸O and δ¹³C values are systematically depleted from marbles to skarn carbonates. Calc-silicate forming reactions and permeability increase triggered by volatilization and consequent strong infiltration of H₂O-rich siliceous fluids into the system promoted fluid–rock interaction causing isotopic resetting and isotopic depletion of silicates (e.g. pyroxene and wollastonite) and skarn calcites.
