湖南鲁塘石墨矿Re-Os同位素研究

石墨具有较高的Re、Os含量,可望成为理想的Re-Os同位素测年对象,但迄今国内外研究较少,尤其在煤层经变质作用形成石墨过程中,其中Re-Os同位素体系的变化还有待研究。湖南鲁塘石墨矿是我国典型的隐晶质石墨矿床之一,矿体产于二叠系龙潭组煤系地层中。本文采用Carius管逆王水溶解样品,直接蒸馏、微蒸馏分离纯化Os,丙酮萃取法分离富集Re,热表面电离质谱法对鲁塘矿区石墨样品以及外围原煤进行了Re-Os同位素分析。结果表明:鲁塘石墨的Re含量为0.901~9.794 ng/g,Os含量为7.3~189.5 pg/g,Re-Os同位素等时线年龄为155.6±3.6 Ma,该年龄与鲁塘石墨矿东侧骑田岭岩体第二阶段中粒黑云母花岗岩锆石U-Pb年龄153~157 Ma一致,表明了龙潭组煤层受到骑田岭岩体"烘烤"作用,发生热接触变质作用,使得靠近骑田岭岩体原煤变质为石墨,形成石墨矿床。通过对比石墨、原煤和骑田岭岩体Re、Os含量及比值,发现石墨中的Re、Os主要来源于原煤,并根据石墨Re-Os等时线初始(187Os/188Os)i值(0.686±0.032),推测骑田岭岩体在侵入煤系地层过程中,有少量具有较低187Os/188Os值的Os被碳质吸附。     

石灰岩铼-锇同位素分析方法研究及应用初探

针对石灰岩样品Re-Os同位素分析,在选样和溶样方法上进行了改进,在Carius管封闭前加入HCl与石灰岩反应释放出大量CO2,然后加入氧化剂和稀释剂封闭Carius管溶解样品,大大增加了样品取样量。利用改进的方法对采自青海玉树地区二叠世九十道班组底部的灰黑色微细晶灰岩的Re-Os同位素体系进行了分析测定,得到了精确的沉积年龄(283.1±7.1)Ma(MSWD=0.61,Model1,n=7)。187Os/188Os同位素初始值为0.56±0.12,与二叠纪时海水的187Os/188Os值相一致,反映了石灰岩沉积时海水的187Os/188Os比值。所得石灰岩年龄与其中的生物化石年龄相吻合,并且与区域上岩浆岩锆石年龄相互印证,表明Re-Os同位素体系在该石灰岩中的封闭性较好。通过石灰岩中有机碳含量以及其中Re、Os含量关系研究,得出了Re、Os在灰岩中主要赋存于有机质中的结论。从原理上解释了Re-Os同位素体系在灰岩中的应用具有十分广泛的前景。     

沥青Re-Os同位素年龄地质意义解读

Re、Os亲有机质的特性使得Re-Os同位素在富有机质地质样品中得到了广泛应用;沥青由大量重组分有机质组成,对Re、Os具有较强的富集能力,并且沥青样品中Re-Os同位素封闭性较好,因此沥青Re-Os同位素已经成为当今国际上研究的一个热点。然而,沥青Re-Os同位素年龄究竟是代表烃源岩的沉积时代、油气成藏时代、还是油气藏破坏后油气运移时代,至今还没有明确的定论。本文对新疆乌尔禾沥青矿、四川矿山梁沥青矿样品进行了Re-Os同位素分析,结果显示,乌尔禾沥青矿Re-Os同位素年龄为269±9Ma,老于周围白垩系砂岩地层沉积时代,Os同位素初始比值¹⁸⁷Os/¹⁸⁸Os(Os_i)为0.367±0.028,小于二叠纪海水的Os_i同位素比值,表明得到的乌尔禾沥青Re-Os同位素年龄反映的是乌尔禾油气藏的成藏时代。矿山梁沥青矿Re-Os同位素年龄为537.3±5.2Ma,老于围岩(寒武系、奥陶系、志留系地层)沉积时代,Os同位素初始比值为0.716±0.028,与早寒武世海水的Os_i同位素比...     

浙江长兴“金钉子”灰岩Re Os富集机制研究

通过对浙江长兴煤山D剖面二叠—三叠"金钉子"灰岩样品Re-Os同位素、主微量元素和有机碳测定,对不同层位灰岩的沉积环境进行了判别。通过分析灰岩主微量元素、有机碳与Re、Os含量的相关性,探索性地研究了灰岩中Re、Os富集机制。研究发现,灰岩中Re、Os的富集主要受氧化还原作用影响,Re只有在还原环境下,才会被灰岩中的有机物富集,此时灰岩中Re含量较高,适用于Re-Os同位素定年,而Re在氧化环境下很难被灰岩中有机质富集。Os在还原环境下同样被有机质富集,但氧化环境下,部分Os也可以被灰岩地层中含铁、铜等自生矿物吸附富集,含铁、铜等自生矿物Os同位素比值可以代表沉积时海水Os同位素特征。Re、Os在灰岩中的富集机制研究对于将Re-Os同位素应用于灰岩地层精确定年及古环境示踪具有重要意义。Re、Os在不同氧化还原条件下的富集差异导致了还原环境沉积的灰岩中187 Re/188 Os要大于氧化环境灰岩中187 Re/188 Os,灰岩中187 Re/188 Os变化对研究古海洋沉积氧化还原环境可能具有一定指示意义。     

班公湖MOR型蛇绿岩Re-Os同位素特征对班公湖-怒江特提斯洋裂解时间的制约

西藏北部班公湖MOR型蛇绿岩主要由角砾状的地幔橄榄岩和玄武岩组成,其中地幔橄榄岩主要是低Cr#尖晶石相含单斜辉石(Cpx)方辉橄榄岩和少量不含Cpx的方辉橄榄岩,玄武岩具有MORB地球化学特点。岩石地球化学特征和二元混合模拟计算表明,含Cpx方辉橄榄岩是由较为亏损的方辉橄榄岩与玄武质熔体发生反应再富集形成的,玄武质熔体和方辉橄榄岩的混合比例为1∶9至1∶4。9个含Cpx方辉橄榄岩样品(含5个重复测试样)的Re和Os含量分别为0.19×10-9~1.49×10-9和2.91×10-9~5.40×10-9,187Re/188Os变化范围为0.169±0.009(2σ)~1.833±0.183(2σ),187Os/188Os变化范围相对较小,介于0.121 13±0.000 44~0.128 53±0.000 36(2σ)之间。含Cpx方辉橄榄岩的Re-Os参考等时线年龄为254±28 Ma。由于不同比例熔体的加入造成橄榄岩具有不同的Re/Os比值,因而不同含Cpx方辉橄榄岩样品具有不同187Os/188Os比值。样品的Re含量与烧失量中的H2O没有相关性,说明蛇纹石化对样品Re-Os体系的影响可以忽略,Re-Os同位素体系在低温地质作用下能够保持相对封闭。参考等时线年龄可能代表亏损方辉橄榄岩与玄武质熔体发生反应的时间,即含Cpx方辉橄榄岩的形成年龄,它表明在该时期特提斯洋经历了一次构造热事件。这一构造岩浆热事件的时间与早期定义的班公湖-怒江特提斯洋的裂解时间晚二叠世至早三叠世较为一致,推测本文MOR型蛇绿岩地幔橄榄岩的Re-Os同位素年龄可能代表班公湖-怒江特提斯洋开始裂解的时间。     

中国南方存在印支期的油气藏——Re-Os同位素体系的制约

利用Re-Os同位素方法开展富含有机质的沥青、原油等的研究,是确定油气成藏时间和破坏时间有效的但极富挑战性的新途径,在国内尚无研究实例报道。以我国南方最大的古油藏之一的麻江古油藏中的沥青为主要对象,采用Re-Os同位素方法试图限定油气的成藏时间和破坏时间。研究表明,麻江古油藏的固体沥青Re、Os同位素质量分数分别在41.5×10-6～642×10-6和0.21×10-6～12.15×10-6之间,N(187Re)/N(188Os)比值较高,且变化范围较大,在270.90～4074.99之间,Os同位素组成指示中等放射成因,其N(187Os)/N(188Os)比值在0.3400～3.6557之间变化。所有沥青样品的模式年龄在28～144Ma之间变化,集中在85Ma左右。通过沥青Re-Os同位素研究,结合详细地质资料,认为麻江古油藏的成藏时间为印支期—早燕山期(144Ma之前),而油藏破坏时间为燕山晚期即85Ma左右。     

富碳质地质样品Re-Os同位素体系研究进展

Re-Os同位素定年技术在富有机质沉积岩、低变质沉积岩、湖相沉积物、煤、油气藏样品等富碳质地质样品的尝试和成功应用,使其成为直接厘定地层沉积时代、重大地质事件发生时限和机制、古环境重建、油气藏直接定年、油气演化过程推演等研究的关键技术手段。然而,受到富碳质地质样品中极低的Re和Os丰度、采样方式以及地质作用等因素的影响,很多样品的Re-Os等时线年龄和初始Os同位素比值精度超过10%,不能有效地评价海水Os的真实来源和地质作用程度,影响了对不同沉积体系及油气演化过程中Re和Os的化学行为和Re-Os等时线年龄地质意义的理解。由此,本文从富碳质地质样品的Re-Os化学行为和地质应用进展出发,对富碳质地质样品Re-Os同位素分析过程中的采样和取样方式、溶样方法、分离富集方式和标准物质选择四方面进行了总结和完善。指出以沉积速率为采样间距参考,通过预处理方式提高样品的均匀性,使用流程空白更低、对同位素分馏影响更小的溶样方法和分离富集方式进行Re-Os同位素分析,以基质匹配的地质标样进行数据监控可进一步提高样品Re-Os同位素分析质量,有助于不同类型富碳质地质样品Re和Os赋存机制研究、Re-O...     

贵州正安县奥陶系—志留系界线碳质泥岩Re-Os同位素精确厘定及其古环境反演

我国上扬子地台地区在奥陶系—志留系之交广泛发育蕴含丰富页岩气资源的五峰组—龙马溪组富有机质沉积岩。采用Re-Os同位素体系对该套沉积地层进行研究,不仅能得到精确的地层沉积年龄,同时根据Re、Os元素的富集机制,对该时期沉积环境进行有效反演,可以为这一阶段发生的地球历史上第二大规模的生物绝灭事件的触发机制提供更合理的解释。本文在贵州正安县班竹1井岩心采集11件碳质泥岩样品,岩心样品连续且完整跨越奥陶系五峰组—志留系龙马溪组界线地层,通过对该样品开展高精度Re-Os同位素研究,获得了奥陶系—志留系地层界线Re-Os同位素年龄为443.68±6.24Ma[2σ,n=7,(~(187)Os/~(188)Os)_i=0.699±0.019,MSWD=0.55],其结果与国际地层委员会发布的年龄(443.7±1.5Ma)高度一致,为奥陶系—志留系界线年龄提供了直接、准确的年龄依据。Os同位素特征反映了大量陆源碎屑参与成岩过程、多期火山活动的发生及冰期向间冰期的转换。连续沉积地层Re-Os同位素特征的变化反映了研究区奥陶系五峰组—志留系龙马溪组沉积环境经历富氧—缺氧—富氧的变化,指示赫南特期冰川事件和火山喷发共同造成了生物大绝灭并促进了有机质的富集,为五峰组—龙马溪组富有机质沉积岩提供了生烃潜力。     

东天山天宇铜镍硫化物矿床磁黄铁矿Re-Os同位素物质来源示踪

天宇岩浆铜镍硫化物矿床的矿体由浸染状矿体和块状矿体组成。采用同位素稀释Triton-plus测定了浸染状矿石和块状矿石的磁黄铁矿Re-Os同位素比值。结果表明:浸染状矿石w(Re)为11.82×10~(-9)~45.28×10~(-9),w(Os)为0.944×10~(-9)~8.528×10~(-9),187Os/188Os初始比值为0.885~2.332,γOs为607~1763;块状矿石w(Re)为49.38×10~(-9)~315.10×10~(-9),w(Os)为0.191×10~(-9)~42.420×10~(-9),187Os/188Os初始比值为0.654~3.322,γOs为423~2555。Re、Os含量、同位素组成和特征值表明,该矿床物质为壳-幔混合来源,块状矿石可能比浸染状矿石经历了更强的地壳物质混染。浸染状矿体发育透闪石化、蛇纹石化、绿泥石化蚀变,表明存在岩浆期后热液活动,但块状矿体热液蚀变不明显,块状矿石的Re-Os同位素特征可能是与地壳岩石直接作用的结果。地壳混染作用发生在深部岩浆房,同时也发生在岩浆侵位及再次迁移过程中,这些过程造成块状矿体与浸染状矿体不同的同位素特征。     

赣南葛藤垇钨钼多金属矿床Re-Os同位素年龄及其地质意义

摘要: 葛藤垇钨钼多金属矿床为赣南地区典型的热液石英脉型矿床,矿体主要赋存于燕山期花岗岩中,受NW向及近EW向断裂带控制。通过对该矿床进行详细的野外地质调查,并对矿体中的6个辉钼矿样品进行Re-Os同位素测试分析,获得了¹⁸⁷Re-¹⁸⁷Os等时线年龄为(159.0±0.4)Ma,加权平均年龄为(162±2)Ma(MSWD=1.3),表明该矿床的成矿时代为燕山早期,与赣南区域成矿事件相吻合。Re/Os值(>4)及¹⁸⁷Re含量((69.0～625.4)×10^-9)指示矿床成矿物质来源于地壳,为燕山早期第二阶段壳源花岗岩分异演化与岩浆晚期热液共同作用的产物。     

Age and sources of the ore at Tharsis and Rio Tinto, Iberian Pyrite Belt, from Re-Os isotopes

Re-Os isotopes were used to constrain the source of the ore-forming elements of the Tharsis and Rio Tinto mines of the Iberian Pyrite Belt, and the timing of mineralization. The pyrite from both mines has simila]r Os and Re concentrations, ranging between 0.05–0.7 and 0.6–66 ppb, respectively. ¹⁸⁷Re/¹⁸⁸Os ratios range from about 14 to 5161. Pyrite-rich ore samples from the massive ore of Tharsis and two samples of stockwork ore from Rio Tinto yield an isochron with an age of 346 ± 26 Ma, and an initial ¹⁸⁷Os/¹⁸⁸Os ratio of about 0.69. Five samples from Tharsis yield an age of 353 ± 44 Ma with an initial ¹⁸⁷Os/¹⁸⁸Os ratio of about 0.37. A sample of massive sulfide ore from Tharsis and one from Rio Tinto lie well above both isochrons and could represent Re mobilization after mineralization. The pyrite Re-Os ages agree with the paleontological age of 350 Ma of the black shales in which the ores are disseminated. Our data do not permit us to determine whether the Re-Os isochron yields the original age of ore deposition or the age of the Hercynian metamorphism that affected the ores. However, the reasonable Re-Os age reported here indicates that the complex history of the ores that occurred after the severe metamorphic event that affected the Iberian Pyrite Belt massive sulfide deposits did not fundamentally disturb the Re-Os geochronologic system. The highly radiogenic initial Os isotopic ratio agrees with previous Pb isotopic studies. If the initial ratio is recording the initial and not the metamorphic conditions, then the data indicate that the source of the metals was largely crustal. The continental margin sediments that underlie the deposits (phyllite-quartzite group) or the volcanic rocks (volcanogenic-sedimentary complex) in which the ores occur are plausible sources for the ore-forming metals and should constrain the models for the genesis of these deposits.

Re-Os ages for Archean molybdenite and pyrite, Kuittila-Kivisuo, Finland and Proterozoic molybdenite, Kabeliai, Lithuania: testing the chronometer in a metamorphic and metasomatic setting

Seven ¹⁸⁷Re-¹⁸⁷Os ages were determined for molybdenite and pyrite samples from two well-dated Precambrian intrusions in Fennoscandia to examine the sustainability of the Re-Os chronometer in a metamorphic and metasomatic setting. Using a new ¹⁸⁷Re decay constant (1.666 × 10⁻¹¹y⁻¹) with a much improved uncertainty (±0.31%), we determined replicate Re-Os ages for molybdenite and pyrite from the Kuittila and Kivisuo prospects in easternmost Finland and for molybdenite from the Kabeliai prospect in southernmost Lithuania. These two localities contain some of the oldest and youngest plutonic activity in Fennoscandia and are associated with newly discovered economic Au mineralization (Ilomantsi, Finland) and a Cu-Mo prospect (Kabeliai, Lithuania). Two Re-Os ages for vein-hosted Kabeliai molybdenite average 1486 ± 5 Ma, in excellent agreement with a 1505 ± 11 Ma U-Pb zircon age for the hosting Kabeliai granite pluton. The slightly younger age suggests the introduction of Cu-Mo mineralization by a later phase of the Kabeliai magmatic system. Mean Re-Os ages of 2778 ± 8 Ma and 2781 ± 8 Ma for Kuittila and Kivisuo molybdenites, respectively, are in reasonable agreement with a 2753 ± 5 Ma weighted mean U-Pb zircon age for hosting Kuittila tonalite. These Re-Os ages agree well with less precise ages of 2789 ± 290 Ma for a Rb-Sr whole-rock isochron and 2771 ± 75 Ma for the average of six Sm-Nd T_DM model ages for Kuittila tonalite. Three Re-Os analyses of a single pyrite mineral separate, from the same sample of Kuittila pluton that yielded a molybdenite separate, provide individual model ages of 2710 ± 27, 2777 ± 28, and 2830 ± 28 Ma (Re = 17.4, 12.1, and 8.4 ppb, respectively), with a mean value of 2770 ± 120 Ma in agreement with the Kuittila molybdenite age. The Re and ¹⁸⁷Os abundances in these three pyrite splits are highly correlated (r = 0.9994), and provide a ¹⁸⁷Re-¹⁸⁷Os isochron age of 2607 ± 47 Ma with an intercept of 21 ppt ¹⁸⁷Os (MSWD = 1.1). It appears that the Re-Os isotopic system in pyrite has been reset on the millimeter scale and that the 21 ppt ¹⁸⁷Os intercept reflects the in situ decay of ¹⁸⁷Re during the ∼160 to 170 m.y. interval from ∼2778 Ma (time of molybdenite ± pyrite deposition) to ∼2607 Ma (time of pyrite resetting). When the Re-Os data for molybdenites from the nearby Kivisuo prospect are plotted together with the Kuittila molybdenite and pyrite data, a well-constrained five-point isochron with an age of 2780 ± 8 Ma and a ¹⁸⁷Os intercept (−2.4 ± 3.8 ppt) of essentially zero results (MSWD = 1.5). We suggest that the pyrite isochron age records a regional metamorphic and/or hydrothermal event, possibly the time of Au mineralization. A proposed Re-Os age of ∼2607 Ma for Au mineralization is in good agreement with radiometric ages by other methods that address the timing of Archean Au mineralization in deposits worldwide (so-called “late Au model”). Molybdenite, in contrast, provides a robust Re-Os chronometer, retaining its original formation age of ∼2780 Ma, despite subsequent metamorphic disturbances in Archean and Proterozoic time.

Re-Os study of Fe-Ti-V oxide and Fe-Cu-Ni sulfide deposits, Suwałki Anorthosite Massif, northeast Poland

The Suwałki anorthosite massif, located in extreme northeast Poland beneath more than a kilometer of Phanerozoic cover, hosts major Fe-Ti-V deposits. These deposits, discovered in 1962, are contained in Fe and Ti oxide minerals that coexist with subordinate quantities of Fe, Cu, Ni, and Co sulfides in massif-style anorthosites, norites, and gabbronorites. Accessibility and other considerations preclude development of this natural resource in the present economic climate. Detailed work by Polish geologists during the last 35 years provides a sound geologic framework for this Re-Os study of the age and origin of oxide and sulfide deposits associated with a major, but lesser known anorthosite massif. Rhenium and osmium abundances and Os isotopic compositions were measured for nine sulfides and four titanomagnetites from the Suwałki anorthosite massif. The titanomagnetites are over an order of magnitude lower in Re (0.4–1.5 ppb) and Os (0.036–0.144 ppb) concentrations than co-precipitated pyrrhotite, pyrite, and chalcopyrite that yield consistent concentrations for Re (30–55 ppb) and Os (1–6 ppb). Parallel lines connecting co-existing titanomagnetite and sulfides have slopes of ∼1 on Re versus common Os concentration plots, indicating that both Re and Os behave similarly during crystallization in their high preference for any sulfide phase over magnetite. Samples from three deposits within the anorthosite massif were analyzed. An age of 1559 ± 37 Ma (n=10) with an initial ¹⁸⁷Os/¹⁸⁸Os of 1.16 ± 0.06 for the Jezioro Okrągłe and Krzemianka deposits is essentially identical to an age of 1556 ± 94 Ma (n=3) for the Udryń deposit. Udryń, however, yielded a marginally lower initial ¹⁸⁷Os/¹⁸⁸Os of 0.87 ± 0.20. The high initial ¹⁸⁷Os/¹⁸⁸Os combined with the Proterozoic Re-Os age indicates that the source for Suwałki oxides-sulfides is older crust, and hypothetically, could involve Archean rocks. An average crustal value of 50 for ¹⁸⁷Re/¹⁸⁸Os yields a 2777 Ma age for Suwałki source rocks. Widespread Phanerozoic cover severely limits knowledge of basement rocks in Poland, however, and no Archean rocks are known in the immediate region. More likely, ¹⁸⁷Re/¹⁸⁸Os ratios may be higher than average continental crust, reflecting mafic crust in the source, and may move the source age for Suwałki anorthosite and mineral deposits toward younger values that easily include ∼2.0 Ga Proterozoic rocks. This more favorable case also accommodates Paleoproterozoic Nd model ages. Regardless of Archean or Proterozoic source age, the high initial ¹⁸⁷Os/¹⁸⁸Os ratios derived from the Re-Os isochron indicate that the source for the oxide-sulfide mineral deposits is more likely the crust and not the mantle. Given that these deposits are clearly magmatic, the Re-Os results add a new dimension to the long-standing “origin of anorthosite” problem, implying a crustal source for the anorthosite as well. The 1559 Ma Suwałki age is compatible with a well-exposed east-west band of 1530-1660 Ma rapakivi granite-anorthosite magmatism to the immediate north, transecting western Russia, southern Finland, Estonia and Latvia, and central Sweden. In particular, the age and isotopic character of Suwałki are not unlike those of the well-studied Salmi rapakivi granite-anorthosite batholith in western Russia (Karelia).

Re-Os geochronology of gold mineralization in the Fawakhir area,Eastern Desert,Egypt

We report the first Re-Os data on gold-associated arsenopyrite from mesothermal gold-quartz veins in the ancient Egyptian Fawakhir–El Sid gold mining district in the central Eastern Desert. This mining district has an ~5000-year-old history and is displayed in the Turin Papyrus Map (about 1150 BC), which is widely acclaimed as the world’s oldest geographic map, as well as the oldest geologic and mine map. The Fawakhir–El Sid district is part of a regional NNW-trending shear corridor (15 km wide) that hosts several other historic gold mines associated with left-lateral wrench structures and related granite intrusions. Vein-style gold mineralization is hosted within and at the margin of an I-type and magnetite-series monzogranite, the Fawakhir granite intrusion, and a Pan-African (~740 Ma) ophiolite sequence. The ore mineralogy of the mineralized quartz veins includes pyrite-arsenopyrite-pyrrhotite-sphalerite-galena-chalcopyrite-electrum plus a number of tellurides of Ag, Au, and Bi. The ¹⁸⁷Re/¹⁸⁸Os versus ¹⁸⁷Os/¹⁸⁸Os regression on 5 points of arsenopyrite gives an age of 601 ± 17 Ma with an initial ¹⁸⁷Os/¹⁸⁸Os of 0.24 ± 0.07 (2 σ; MSWD = 17). This age coincides within error with the U-Pb age on zircon from the Fawakhir monzogranite (598 ± 3 Ma). The age coincidence and the hydrothermal Te and Bi metal signature suggest a foremost role of granite-related fluids in the quartz-vein system.     

新疆哈勒尕提铜铁矿床的成矿年代学研究

首次采用锆石SHRIMP微区U-Pb测年技术,对新疆西天山哈勒尕提铜铁多金属矿床成矿岩体进行了年代学研究,通过对角闪石黑云母二长花岗岩中单颗粒锆石12个样品点的分析,获得²⁰⁶Pb/²³⁸U年龄介于362.7~381.7 Ma,加权平均值为（367.3±2.2）Ma,表明岩体的结晶年龄为晚泥盆世。通过ICP-MS法测定了哈勒尕提铜铁多金属矿床中的辉钼矿Re-Os同位素年龄,获得其模式年龄的加权平均值为（370.1±2.4）Ma,等时线年龄为（371±12）Ma,代表了哈勒尕提铜铁多金属矿床的成矿年龄。两种测年方法获得的年龄在误差范围内基本一致,因此该测试结果表明哈勒尕提铜铁多金属矿床与晚泥盆世角闪石黑云母二长花岗岩侵入作用密切相关,角闪石黑云母二长花岗岩为哈勒尕提铜铁多金属矿床的形成提供了成矿物质和热源。     

新疆吐克吐克铜矿黄铜矿Re-Os定年及成矿意义

Re-Os systematics and geochemistry of cobaltite (CoAsS) in the Idaho cobalt belt,Belt-Purcell Basin,USA: Evidence for middle Mesoproterozoic sediment-hosted Co-Cu sulfide mineralization with Grenvillian and Cretaceous remobilization

We report the first study of the Re-Os systematics of cobaltite (CoAsS) using disseminated grains and massive sulfides from samples of two breccia-type and two stratabound deposits in the Co-Cu-Au Idaho cobalt belt (ICB), Lemhi subbasin to the Belt-Purcell Basin, Idaho, USA. Using a ¹⁸⁵Re + ¹⁹⁰Os spike solution, magnetic and non-magnetic fractions of cobaltite mineral separates give reproducible Re-Os analytical data for aliquot sizes of 150 to 200 mg. Cobaltite from the ICB has highly radiogenic ¹⁸⁷Os/¹⁸⁸Os ratios (17–45) and high ¹⁸⁷Re/¹⁸⁸Os ratios (600–1800) but low Re and total Os contents (ca. 0.4–4 ppb and 14–64 ppt, respectively). Containing 30 to 74% radiogenic ¹⁸⁷Os, cobaltite from the ICB is amenable to Re-Os age determination using the isochron regression approach.Re-Os data for disseminated cobaltite mineralization in a quartz-tourmaline breccia from the Haynes-Stellite deposit yield a Model 1 isochron age of 1349 ± 76 Ma (2σ, n = 4, mean squared weighted deviation MSWD = 2.1, initial ¹⁸⁷Os/¹⁸⁸Os ratio = 4.7 ± 2.2). This middle Mesoproterozoic age is preserved despite a possible metamorphic overprint or a pulse of metamorphic-hydrothermal remobilization of pre-existing cobaltite that formed along fold cleavages during the ca. 1190–1006 Ma Grenvillian orogeny. This phase of remobilization is tentatively identified by a Model 3 isochron age of 1132 ± 240 Ma (2σ, n = 7, MSWD = 9.3, initial ¹⁸⁷Os/¹⁸⁸Os ratio of 9.0 ± 2.9) for cobaltite in the quartz-tourmaline breccia from the Idaho zone in the Blackbird mine.All Mesoproterozoic cobaltite mineralization in the district was affected by greenschist- to lower amphibolite-facies (garnet zone) metamorphism during the Late Jurassic to Late Cretaceous Cordilleran orogeny. However, the fine- to coarse-grained massive cobaltite mineralization from the shear zone-hosted Chicago zone, Blackbird mine, is the only studied deposit that has severely disturbed Re-Os systematics with evidence for a linear trend of mixing with (metamorphic?) fluids.The new Re-Os ages and extremely high initial ¹⁸⁷Os/¹⁸⁸Os ratios of cobaltite reported here favor a magmatic-hydrothermal genetic model for a multi-stage REE-Y-Co-Cu-Au mineralization occurring at ca. 1370 to 1349 Ma, and related to the emplacement of the Big Deer Creek granite pluton at ca. 1377 Ma. In our model, deposition of paragenetically early xenotime and gadolinite was followed by an influx of Mesoproterozoic evaporitic brines and magmatic-hydrothermal fluids containing metals and reduced sulfur derived from mafic and oceanic island-arc Archean to Paleoproterozoic rocks in the Laurentian basement. Cobaltite mineralization occurred upon cooling of these fluids at an inferred temperature of 300 °C or below.
