秦岭造山带晚三叠世糜署岭岩体的岩石磁学及磁组构可靠性约束

近年来,针对秦岭造山带晚三叠世花岗岩体侵位机制的巨大争议,一些研究采用磁组构方法分析了岩体的内部组构特征及其与区域构造的关系,提出了具有重要意义的新认识.然而,目前这些研究均缺乏对岩体磁组构本质意义的分析,利用该方法约束岩体内部组构的可靠性并不十分清晰.针对这一问题,本文以秦岭造山带内具典型代表性意义的晚三叠世糜署岭花岗岩体为例,开展了该岩体的磁组构、岩石磁学、矿物形态组构和显微构造的综合研究.结果表明,糜署岭岩体的磁化率总体较低,属钛铁矿系列花岗岩.绝大部分样品的磁化率受控于顺磁性的黑云母等铁镁硅酸盐矿物,部分高磁化率样品包含了少量多畴磁铁矿等铁磁性组分的贡献,且随磁化率增大,铁磁性组分的贡献更为明显.样品的磁组构也主要是黑云母组构或由黑云母与磁铁矿的亚组构复合而成.由于样品中磁铁矿含量较低且与黑云母密切共生,磁组构与黑云母形态组构基本一致,因此,黑云母与磁铁矿的亚组构基本共轴.糜署岭岩体的磁组构本质上等同于黑云母组构,反映了黑云母等页硅酸盐矿物在岩体中的分布,可以有效的指示岩体的内部构造特征.宏观和显微构造观察还显示,糜署岭岩体的内部组构形成于岩浆侵位的晚期阶段,叠加了同岩浆期区域构造的关键信息,是从岩体构造角度开展区域构造演化的良好载体.     

北京房山岩体的磁组构特征及其 对岩体侵位的约束

岩浆岩的磁组构与岩浆流动、侵位时应力和冷凝后遭受后期构造改造作用有关.本文分析了北京房山岩体东山口-凤凰亭剖面岩石磁化率各向异性(AMS)变化.热磁曲线和磁滞回线分析显示,岩石的主要载磁矿物为多畴磁铁矿颗粒.AMS磁化率椭球体呈压扁状,磁面理发育且产状陡倾,磁化率各向异性度P值平均值高达1.189.自边缘相(东山口)到中心相(凤凰亭),岩石磁化率椭球的扁率E值和形状因子T值逐渐减小,说明磁组构主要反映岩浆流动和岩体侵位时近NNE-SSW方向的挤压作用,在侵位冷凝后并没有遭受到明显的构造改造.     

南海北部陆区岩石磁化率的矿物学研究

基于2517套现场测量资料,245块岩石样品的体积磁化率测量和详细的岩矿鉴定及硅酸盐全分析结果,结合单矿物磁化率特征及各岩石之间的对比研究,发现岩石磁化率主要受组成岩石的矿物磁化率控制.即岩石磁化率(κr)与组成岩石各个矿物磁化率(κ1)及其体积含量(C2)成正比.例如侵入岩磁化率,κr=-5.68×102Cq+2.8...     

新疆库鲁克塔格新元古代花岗岩年龄和地球化学

本文报道了新疆塔里木北缘库鲁克塔格地区新元古代孤山岩体（或太阳岛岩体）的岩石学、锆石U-Pb年龄及地球化学组成。研究表明：该岩体主要由英云闪长岩、奥长花岗岩及正长花岗岩组成，结晶的时间为795 Ma。其地球化学特征表现为富Na、LREE、LILE及亏损HREE、HFSE，因此具有高的（La/Yb）N及Sr/Y比值，与现代的艾达克岩相似。然而该岩体具有低的Nd初始值及太古代的Nd模式年龄，因此推测其岩浆来自太古代基性下地壳的重熔。鉴于在库鲁克塔格地区发育有800 Ma左右的蛇绿岩，因此我们推测该岩体是碰撞造山引起的加厚的下地壳重熔的结果，代表了塔里木地块前寒武纪基底的最终形成。     

西秦岭温泉岩体的磁组构特征及其侵位机制意义

结合岩石磁学、磁化率各向异性度与区域构造分析了西秦岭温泉岩体的侵位机制及意义.温泉岩体的样品的平均磁化率k_m值总体很大,岩石磁学表明对于磁化率较低的样品,顺磁性矿物（如黑云母等）对磁化率的贡献较大,而少量铁磁性矿物（如磁铁矿等）可能作为剩磁载体.对于磁化率较高的样品,其主要载磁矿物为磁铁矿;花岗岩样品的校正磁化率各向异性度P_J总体小于1.2,显示了岩体为流动磁组构的特征,磁化率椭球体形态参数T总体大于0,扁率E总体大于1,以压扁椭球体为主;岩体的磁面理同磁线理相比更为发育,样品的磁面理普遍表现出围绕岩体边界分布的特点,且倾角较陡;而在岩体内部磁线理与磁面理分布相对散乱,定向性差,这一特征说明温泉岩体的磁组构主要由侵位时的侧向挤压作用形成的;虽然岩体的磁组构特征总体显示了N-NEE和SW向的挤压作用,但岩体侵位时由商丹缝合带闭合所产生的垂直于缝合带方向的挤压作用已相对较弱.本文认为,温泉岩体侵位时是一种弱挤压环境,或者是一种相对稳定的环境甚至可能是一种相对引张的背景,这与温泉岩体形成于后碰撞环境,秦岭造山带已演化至后碰撞拆沉作用发生的伸展阶段所反映的区域构造背景是一致的.     

Provenance of sandstones from the Wakino Subgroup of the Lower Cretaceous Kanmon Group, northern Kyushu, Japan

Abstract The Wakino Subgroup is a lower stratigraphic unit of the Lower Cretaceous Kanmon Group. Previous studies on provenance of Wakino sediments have mainly concentrated on either petrography of major framework grains or bulk rock geochemistry of shales. This study addresses the provenance of the Wakino sandstones by integrating the petrographic, bulk rock geochemistry, and mineral chemistry approaches. The proportions of framework grains of the Wakino sandstones suggest derivation from either a single geologically heterogeneous source terrane or multiple source areas. Major source lithologies are granitic rocks and high‐grade metamorphic rocks but notable amounts of detritus were also derived from felsic, intermediate and mafic volcanic rocks, older sedimentary rocks, and ophiolitic rocks. The heavy mineral assemblage include, in order of decreasing abundance: opaque minerals (ilmenite and magnetite with minor rutile), zircon, garnet, chromian spinel, aluminum silicate mineral (probably andalusite), rutile, epidote, tourmaline and pyroxene. Zircon morphology suggests its derivation from granitic rocks. Chemistry of chromian spinel indicates that the chromian spinel grains were derived from the ultramafic cumulate member of an ophiolite suite. Garnet and ilmenite chemistry suggests their derivation from metamorphic rocks of the epidote‐amphibolite to upper amphibolite facies though other source rocks cannot be discounted entirely. Major and trace element data for the Wakino sediments suggest their derivation from igneous and/or metamorphic rocks of felsic composition. The major element compositions suggest that the type of tectonic environment was of an active continental margin. The trace element data indicate that the sediments were derived from crustal rocks with a minor contribution from mantle‐derived rocks. The trace element data further suggest that recycled sedimentary rocks are not major contributors of detritus. It appears that the granitic and metamorphic rocks of the Precambrian Ryongnam Massif in South Korea were the major contributors of detritus to the Wakino basin. A minor but significant amount of detritus was derived from the basement rocks of the Akiyoshi and Sangun Terrane. The chromian spinel appears to have been derived from a missing terrane though the ultramafic rocks in the Ogcheon Belt cannot be discounted.     

Magnetic Susceptibility Screening of Anthropogenic Impact on the Danube River Sediments in Northwestern Bulgaria - Preliminary Results

Several events of anthropogenic impacts on the floodplain river sediments of the Danube along a section near the town of Oryakhovo (NW Bulgaria) have been detected using magnetic technique. In the field, magnetic susceptibility was measured using three susceptibility meters – MS2D, KT-5 and SM30. The differences in the surface susceptibility values measured with the different instruments are ascribed to the various penetration depths which depend on several parameters like sensor diameter, frequency and field strength. This is supported by the detailed laboratory study on penetration depth and sensitivity of the new SM30 susceptibility meter and the comparison with the already existing data for the other two sensors. Boundaries between different flooding events are clearly linked with significant variability of the measured susceptibility values corresponding to one and the same level. Sediment cores, taken at different distances from the water level, show the history of depositional events and corresponding degree of anthropogenic pollution. Identification of the magnetic phases responsible for the signal was carried out by means of thermomagnetic (T) curves. The main carrier is magnetite with Tc of 580°C or oxidized magnetite with Tc of 600°C. A second kink at about 300°C is better expressed for samples with lower susceptibilities. It may correspond to several minerals, e.g. maghemite, pyrrothite, titanomagnetite, as well as different mineral transformations of paramagnetic minerals (decomposition, dehydroxilation, etc. for example siderite, lepidocrocite). The samples showing strong magnetic enhancement are characterized by the predominance of magnetite. Optical microscopy on magnetic extracts shows the presence of small spherical particles, typical for the anthropogenic magnetic phases from high-temperature technological processes. Well expressed susceptibility variations along the cores suggest the presence of several stages of different degree of pollution, covering an estimated period of about 30 years.     

A combined rock magnetic and geochemical investigation of Upper Cretaceous volcanic rocks in the Pontides,Turkey

Upper Cretaceous volcanic rocks were collected at 24 sites along the Pontides, N-NE Turkey, for rock magnetic and geochemical studies. Rock magnetic and petrographic methods showed that the lavas are characterized predominantly by titanomagnetites with a mixture of pseudo-single and multi-domain grains, whereas in tephrite single domain titanohematite was dominant. Measurements of magnetic susceptibility and the geochemical properties on different volcanic rock types provide important knowledge about the magnetic stability of the rocks. The magnetic properties are interpreted in terms of the composition, concentration, magma generation. Tephrite and phonotephrites with the highest intensities (5200 mA/m) and high magnetic susceptibility values (2585 × 10⁻⁵), largest grain sizes and Fe/Ti values, showing minor or no alteration are the most magnetic stable samples in contrast to dacites with the lowest intensity-magnetic susceptibility (520 mA/m − 573 × 10⁻⁵) and high alteration degree. The basanite samples show very low NRM (48–165 mA/m) but very high magnetic susceptibility (2906–3100 × 10⁻⁵) values suggesting the alteration of Fe-Ti minerals. It is shown that the magnetic properties of the basic to acidic rocks show a systematic variation with magma differentiation and could be related to fractional crystallization. Major and trace elements revealed that the lavas are compatible with complex magma evolution, with mineral phases of olivine+magnetite+clinopyroxene in basic series, amphibole+ +clinopyroxene in intermediate rocks and plagioclase+clinopyroxene+biotite in acidic series.     

Quality of pTRM acquisition in pyrrhotite bearing contact-metamorphic limestones: possibility of a continuous record of Earth magnetic field variations

The rockmagnetic and palaeomagnetic signal in pyrrhotite bearing limestones of different contact-metamorphic settings were investigated related to intrusions ranging from small sills to large magmatic complexes. Magnetic susceptibility, the pyrrhotite/magnetite ratio and thermal modelling serve as an investigative tool to define three metamorphic zonations: a contact zone of a mixed magnetic assemblage and low susceptibilities, a pyrrhotite bearing transitional zone, where full thermoremanent magnetisations (TRMs) are acquired due to temperatures above the Curie temperature of pyrrhotite (T_c,po), and a marginal zone containing pyrrhotite and magnetite generated at temperatures below T_c,po. The fact that TRMs can consist of independent pTRMs is successfully tested by modified Thellier experiments. It is shown that a metamorphic environment with low fluid circulation provides a scenario for the recording of independent pTRMs. Multicomponent behaviour of the NRM residing in samples from the transitional zone can therefore be interpreted as a continuous record of Earth magnetic field variations.     

Airborne geophysical prospecting for ultramafite associated talc, Altermark, northern Norway

Talc-rich rocks in Altermark occur as rims around magnetite bearing serpentinite lenses which are up to about 1 km wide. The content of magnetite in the serpentinite makes magnetic measurements possible as a method for talc-prospecting. In 1991 a helicopter-borne geophysical survey combined with geological and petrophysical mapping was carried out in the Altermark area. Several positive magnetic anomalies were detected. Positive magnetic anomalies with oval shapes, well defined boundaries and smooth anomaly curves were interpreted to be caused by serpentinite lenses. Laboratory measurements revealed susceptibilities for the serpentinites between 0.006−0.36 SI and a Q-value of approximately 0.3. Magnetic modelling of the Nakkan anomaly and subsequent drilling revealed that it was indeed a serpentinite body surrounded by talc rocks which was the cause of the anomaly. The shallowest part was located about 150 m below surface. The geophysical exploration led to the discovery of a talc-carbonate deposit with an anticipated in situ tonnage of more than 1 million tons. The present study consequently proved to be a classical case study where we were able to locate and establish the three-dimensional form of serpentinite bodies associated with talc deposits. We conclude that helicopter-borne geophysical surveying is an effective tool in the exploration of serpentinite cored talc bearing rocks in complex geological areas where exposures are poor or absent and accessibility difficult. The rough topography and dense vegetation in the Altermark area make this type of survey very cost effective.     

Microstructure and magnetic fabric in the Shuanghe pluton: A synkinematic granite in Eastern Dabie Mountains,China

Strain analyses for the Shuanghe pluton show that the main strain planes suffered distinct deformation. The main strain value (XZ) is up to 1.59-2.18, and the value of Flinn index (K) ranges from 0.11 to 0.82. Anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility (AMS) measurements reveal that the orientations of the magnetic foliation and lineation gently dip SE, consistent with the macroscopic foliation of the pluton. The value of anisotropy degree (P) ranges from 1.109 to 1.639, and the shape parameter (7) from 0.079 to 0.534. These studies prove that the pluton was deformed under strong compression. Quartz c-axis textures, defined by monoclinic or triclinic asymmetry, usually developed the high maxima paralleling the b-axis, which is defined by the developed in the high-ultrahigh pressure rocks (UHP) which were captured in the pluton or country rocks. It is concluded that the Shuanghe pluton emplaced under regional compression slightly after the formation of UHP, and it is characterized by synkinematic granitic deformation.     

Origin of the magnetization of Permo-Carboniferous sediments of Spitsbergen, Svalbard Archipelago

Rock magnetic investigations of Permo-Carboniferous carbonate sediments from two areas on Spitsbergen are described, conducted to identify the carriers of the NRM in these rocks. Since microscopic and magnetic separation techniques could not profitably be applied, the nature of magnetic minerals was investigated by thermal demagnetization of the NRM and decay of saturation isothermal remanence (I_rs) during heating to 600°C, as well as by the distribution of the median destructive fields of the NRM and observation of magnetic susceptibility after subsequent heatings. The results show that the NRM of these limestones resides mainly in magnetite, but creation of magnetic pyrrhotite and of fresh magnetite is observed during heating to 600°C. Presence of sulphides indicates that magnetite is an oxidation product of pyrite or of non-magnetic pyrrhotite. Examination of rock magnetic properties of limestones leads to the conclusion that most of the magnetite in the rocks of the Bellsund area is of detrital origin, whereas the rocks at Festningen contain magnetite derived from pyrite probably during an early stage of the diagenetic process.     

Oxygen isotopic evidence for meteoric water interaction with the Captains Bay pluton,Aleutian Islands

Low¹⁸O/¹⁶O values have been found in rocks from the Captains Bay pluton and surrounding country rocks on Unalaska Island in the Aleutian Islands. The pluton is surrounded by a metamorphic aureole in which the country rocks have been domed, faulted and chaotically fractured. Samples with lower¹⁸O/¹⁶O values (δ¹⁸O = ?4.1 to +2.7‰, SMOW) commonly have interstitial micrographic intergrowths of quartz and turbid potassium feldspar. These facts suggest extensive interaction of circulating meteoric waters with the pluton. Unalaska Island must have been subaerially exposed at or shortly after the time of intrusion of the pluton. The pervasive low-grade metamorphism of the “early series” volcanic rocks of all of the Aleutian Islands might be a result of the interaction of intrusive bodies with meteoric waters rather than the consequence of ridge subduction.     

Experimental study of fly-ash migration by using magnetic method

Several studies have shown that magnetic measurements can be used in assessing soil contamination due to atmospheric deposition of pollutants. Reliable spatial mapping of magnetic susceptibility of soils assumes high temporal stability of deposited particles, accumulated in top-soil horizons. One of the main methodological concerns is whether the migration of deposited anthropogenic ferrimagnetic particles may bias the measured values. Measurements carried out on high-porosity (sandy) soils, or on soils with a very variable water regime may yield inconsistent values of top-soil magnetic susceptibility as the indicator of contamination. This study focuses on the laboratory examination of migration of fly ashes from a coal-burning power plant in sands of different porosity and under a simulated rain regime. Columns of sand of different grain sizes, placed in plastic cylinders, were contaminated on the surface by the fly ash. The vertical migration of magnetic particles was monitored using measurements of magnetic susceptibility with an SM400 Kappameter. Calibration measurements in the water environment showed an erroneous performance and resulted in the technical improvement of the used susceptibility meter (Model 2009). Our results show that the vertical distribution of flyash particles deposited on fine sand is very stable even after repeated rain simulation. The peak value of magnetic susceptibility is located in a stable position a few millimeters under the surface. Hence, standard top-soil magnetic mapping is in such a case reliable and fully representative. Contrary to that, in case of coarse sand, the peak value of magnetic susceptibility migrates by more than 10 cm. The results will be further used for numerical modeling of contaminant transport in porous media.     

Magnetic study of a metabasic dyke in Dhaiya,Dhanbad (Bihar)

Summary A metabasic dyke of pre-Cambrian age passing through Dhaiya village in Dhanbad, consists of metanorite, metadolerite and epidiorite. A magnetic study of this dyke has been undertaken. 14 magnetic traverses were taken with Schmidt vertical force variometer. Direction and intensity of N.R.M. have been determined for 15 oriented samples, with an astatic magnetometer. Magnetic susceptibility of 36 samples has been determined. Microscopic study (thin and polished sections) of samples has been done. The intensity of N.R.M. is upto 11.830×10^–3 c.g.s. units susceptibility varies from 53×10^–6 to 750×10^–6 c.g.s. units and the Koenigsberger ratio from 3.3 to 236.6. The magnetic profiles are interpreted taking into account both remanence and susceptibility. In case of metanorite and metadolerite, more than 80% of the anomaly is caused by remanence. Negative anomalies in some cases is due to negative inclination of remanent magnetization. Very low anomalies (less than 50 gammas) over epidiorite are due to loss of magnetism (both remanent and induced) of these rocks due to felspathization. A new mechanism has been proposed to account for the scatter in magnetic directions for metamorphosed igneous rocks. The rotation, during metamorphism, of magnetic grains (magnetite, ilmenite etc.) enclosed in the lenticular rock-forming minerals causes deviation of the magnetic vector from its original position. Two more causes have been suggested here to explain the variation of intensity of N.R.M. of metabasic rocks: (i) Ilmenite exsolved from titaniferous augite partly contributes to the N.R.M. (ii) magnetite dust injected into felspars by solutions during metamorphism, causing cloudiness in felspars, partly contributes to the N.R.M. The wide scatter in remanent magnetic direction in these rocks is due to the effects of metamorphism. The magnetic directions fall under two groups: one with positive inclination and the other with negative inclination; both the groups being, in general, magnetized normally in the horizontal direction. This indicates normal magnetization in northern and southern hemispheres respectively. This probably means that the place was in the northern and southern hemispheres at the time of original emplacement of the dolerite magma and of metamorphism respectively, the metamorphism, not affecting all the rocks uniformly.     

一个变泥质岩包体样品的系统热磁试验及其矿物学意义

利用一件采自河北汉诺坝周坝地区变泥质岩包体样品,结合系统的低温和高温磁性测量结果,探讨了应用热磁实验鉴别样品中所含原生磁性矿物的多解性问题. 结果表明, 饱和等温剩余磁化强度（SIRM）在室温～250℃以及280℃～380℃的降低分别由高钛钛磁铁矿的剩磁解阻过程（一种物理过程）以及由磁赤铁矿转换成赤铁矿（一种矿物相变）引起.样品在500℃以后磁化率的升高则是由磁铁矿从钛磁赤铁矿中出溶所致.因此,κ T（即磁化率随温度变化）曲线中呈现约580℃居里点是由加热过程中次生的磁铁矿引起,而并非代表原始（即加热前）样品中的磁铁矿成分.

Images of the edges of aeromagnetic anomalies as an aid to geological mapping: The case history of Tobago,West Indies

Tobago consists chiefly of Mesozoic igneous and metamorphic rocks of oceanic island arc affinity. During a four year programme of geological mapping of the island we had access to aeromagnetic data which showed large amplitude, E-W trending linear anomalies mainly associated with highly magnetic plutonic rocks. Using the pseudogravity transform and a subsequent mapping of local maxima of the horizontal gradients we created raster images of the edges or boundaries of the causative magnetic bodies. Thresholding of the boundary pixels allowed noise to be filtered and the most significant boundaries to be chosen. When combined with digitised field-mapped geological boundaries a useful format was created that allowed us to validate some of the field boundaries, investigate unexplained features and interpret structures.     

Aoyitake plagiogranite in western Tarim Block, NW China: Age, geochemistry, petrogenesis and its tectonic implications

SHRIMPP U-Pb zircon age and geochemical and Nd isotopic data are reported for the Aoyitake plagiogranite in western Tarim Block, NW China. The plagiogranite intruded the Middle Pro- terozoic and Lower Carboniferous with an exposure area of ca. 60 km2 and crystallized at 330.7±4.8 Ma. Rock types mainly include tonalite, trondhjemite and minor amounts of diorite and quartz-diorite. Feldspars in the rocks are dominated by oligoclase-andesine, and minor perthite observed locally. The granites are sodic with Na/K ratios (molar) between 4 and 87. Total REE (50-220 ppm) show a clear positive correlation with SiO2. There is no LRRE/HREE fractionation (LaN/YbN=0.5-1.5), me- dium negative Eu anomalies (δ Eu=0.3-0.6), high Y content and low Sr/Y ratio (~1.0). These granites exhibit relatively juvenile Nd T2DM model ages of 470 to 580 Ma and positive εNd(331 Ma) values of 6.23 to 7.65. The aforementioned characteristics are similar to those of ocean island or ocean ridge plagiogranites. However, the regional geology, especially its scale, precludes that the plagiogranite pluton was derived directly from fractionational crystallization of mantle-derived basaltic magma. We interpreted that the primary magma of the pluton might be tonalitic in composition generated by ca. 50% partial melting of the juvenile basaltic crust. The primary magma experienced intensive frac- tionational crystallization, and intruded into the middle to upper crusts to form the granite pluton. In combination with the previous regional geological data, it is concluded that the plagiogranite pluton was emplaced within the Tarim Block in respond to the Carboniferous continental rifting along the Tianshan orogenic belt.
