Evidence for metallogenic geochemistry of volcano-hot spring deposition in Xiqiu copper deposit, Zhejiang Province, China

There were strong volcanic and hot spring activities in Late proterozic in the Xiqiu mining district,Zhejiang province,The volcanic rocks and hydrothermal sedimentary cherts have high contents of the major metallogenic elements,Their atomic percentage of Cu:Zn:Pb is similar very much between volcanic rock,hydrothermal sedimentary chert and ore.Therefore,the metallization has a direct bearing on the volcanic and hot spring activities in the Xiqiu area.The δ34S values vary from -6.5‰to 2.8‰,the δ30Si Values from-0.2‰ to 0.6‰,and the δ18O Values from 8.14‰ to 22.32‰,Lead isotopes were derived mainly from the lower crust.The ores have high contents of As,Sb,Bi,Ga,Zn,and Ba,and low Al/(Al Fe Mn)ratios,with Zn/(Zn Pb)ratios approximate to unity,Therefore,the Xiqiu massive copper sulfide deposit can be ascribed to volcano-hot spring deposition.

Geochemical Indication of Sinian Bedded Siliceous Rocks in the Hunan-Guizhou-Guangxi Area and Their Environmental Significance

In the Hunan-Guizhou-Guangxi area there have developed very thick bedded siliceous rocks of the late Sinian. The rocks have a fairly pure composition, with an average content of siliceous minerals exceeding 95%. They are relatively rich in Fe and Mn, and poor in Al, Ti and Mg. The Fe/Ti, (Fe+Mn)/Ti, Al/(Al+Fe+Mn) and U/Th ratios and the Al-Fe-Mn and Fe-Mn-(Ni+Co+Cu)×10 triangle diagrams all show that they are hydrothermal sedimentary siliceous rocks. In the rocks the total amount of REEs is low, the δCe shows an obvious negative anomaly and the 8Eu a weak anomaly, and LREE>HREE, all indicating that they are products of hydrothermal processes. The δ30Si and δ18O values, as well as the formation temperature of the rocks all clearly show that the silica forming the rocks comes from hot water. Besides, analyses of the depositional environment of the rocks using the MnO/TiO2 ratio and the δCe and δ30Si values yield the same conclusion that they are formed in environments from continental marginal slope

桂西南柳桥地区上二叠统大隆组层状硅质岩成因和沉积环境

对桂西南上二叠统大隆组层状硅质岩地球化学的研究发现:陆源主量元素Al、Ti等含量较高,并呈很好的相关性（R>0.90）;热液来源的主量元素Mn和Fe等含量偏低,并具有较小的负相关关系（R=－0.30）;陆源元素(Al、Ti、Hf、Zr、Th等)与总稀土元素含量具有较高正相关性（R为0.70～0.83）;Al Fe Mn三角图解指示研究区的硅质岩为非热液成因。这些说明陆源物质是硅质岩形成的重要物源,结合硅质岩中含有大量的硅质生物（放射虫和海绵骨针等）的事实,我们认为研究区硅质岩是在生物作用为主,并有大量物源物质和少量热液物质（可能与大断裂导致的玄武岩喷发有关）和火山物质混入的条件下形成的。Ce/Ce*、(La/Yb)Shale、(La/Ce)Shale和∑REE与细粒沉积物沉积环境的关系以及(La/Ce)Shale—Al2O3/(Al2O3 +Fe2O3)图解等说明研究区硅质岩沉积环境为大陆边缘的中下部。Th/U和Ceanom指示了硅质岩形成于氧化环境。 

湖北嘉鱼县蛇屋山金矿硅质岩地球化学特征及成矿环境约束

湖北蛇屋山金矿是亚洲最大的红土型金矿,矿区内硅质岩发育,覆于含矿红土层之上,并与硅化灰岩呈渐变过渡。硅质岩主要由微晶和隐晶组成,其SiO2含量为96.87%～97.90%,w(Si)/w(Al)=92.84～287.66,平均值为173,处于纯硅质岩的范畴。硅质岩样品的w(Al)/w(Al+Fe+Mn)为0.189～0.388,平均值为0.303,具热液成因硅质岩的特征。根据Al、Fe、Mn三角图的投点,认为本研究区硅质岩为热液成因硅质岩。微量元素w(Ni)/w(Co)、w(Fe)/w(Ti)、w(Ti)/w(V)、w(U)/w(Th)也说明了硅质岩具有热水沉积成因。w(Ce)/w(Ce*)为1.05～1.27,平均值为1.12,(La/Ce)N为0.84～1.12,平均值为0.98,微量元素V的含量(3.02～4.26μg/g)以及常量元素w(MnO)/w(TiO2)(1.0～2.0)都显示此研究区硅质岩具有大陆边缘硅质岩的特征。结合宏观特征,确定硅质岩有可能形成于卡林型金矿去碳酸盐化阶段,属于热液活动的产物。     

华北陆块南部古元古代熊耳群硅质岩地球化学特征及其沉积环境

华北陆块南部古元古代熊耳群中的硅质岩主要发育于马家河组沉积岩中,有少量与火山岩共生。通过分析硅质岩的主、微量元素特征,把熊耳群硅质岩分为热水成因和非热水成因两类。热水成因硅质岩表现为低TiO2、MgO、Al2O3和∑REE含量,以及低的A1/(A1+Fe+Mn) 比值的特征;其北美页岩标准化的稀土分配模式平坦,但具有Ce负异常与Eu正异常,U/Th>1,反映沉积速率快,受陆源物质的影响小。非热水成因的硅质岩的∑REE含量高,轻稀土富集(LaN/YbN=1.41~9.04),U/Th<1,受陆源物质影响较大。熊耳群硅质岩的Cr/Th比值变化小,表明物源区成分比较单一;其与熊耳群火山岩具有相似的REE配分模式图和蛛网图,也说明物源为熊耳群的英安—流纹质火山岩和玄武—安山质火山岩的混合。硅质岩的Al2O3/(Al2O3+Fe2O3)比值为0.44~0.64、以及Ce/Ce*(0.77~0.94)、LaN/CeN(1.18~1.47)的特征表明,熊耳群硅质岩主要形成于被动大陆边缘环境。熊耳群硅质岩主要形成于海相、海陆交互相等环境。早在古元古代熊耳群时期,熊耳—中条拗拉谷发生强烈的扩张裂解作用,华北陆块南部遭受海水入侵,豫南有些地区已经处于海相环境,晋南垣曲有些地区处于海陆交互相环境,局部地区还处于陆相环境。     

广西南宁地区泥盆系硅质岩地球化学特征及沉积环境

泥盆纪时,广西南宁附近发育了一套从早泥盆世埃姆斯期到晚泥盆世弗拉斯期末的硅质岩建造,硅质岩多为薄层,灰黑到黑色,至弗拉斯阶上部变为灰黄色,水平纹理发育,常夹火山凝灰岩或与之互层。这套硅质岩SiO2含量高（一般>90％）,其他主量化学成分均很低（一般<5%）。TFe2O3和含量相对比较富集（平均含量3.32％）, Al2O3、TiO2、MgO和MnO相对贫乏（平均含量分别为0.71％、0.04％、0.10％和0.02％）。常量元素Fe/Ti、（Fe+Mn）/Ti和Al/（Al+Fe+Mn）比值的平均值分别为91.65,92.12和0.25,微量元素Ti/V和U/Th比值的平均值分别为4.57和4.09,其中U/Th比值在弗拉斯期早期达到最大。这些数据说明,硅质岩在形成时受到了明显的海底热液活动影响,而这种热液活动在弗拉斯期早期达到最强,后逐渐减弱,而热液活动的强度可能主要受盆地裂解（或张裂作用）的影响;因此,盆地拉张作用在弗拉斯期早期达到最强,这与硅质岩的空间分布是吻合的。

Geology,geochemistry, and genesis of the hot-spring-type Sipingshan gold deposit,eastern Heilongjiang Province,Northeast China

The Sipingshan gold deposit, located in the eastern part of the Nadanhada Terrane, is hosted within cherts and silicified breccias of the Upper Cretaceous Sipingshan Formation and rhyolites of the Upper Cretaceous Datashanlinchang Formation. The orebodies are composed of gold- and pyrite-bearing cherts, silicified breccias, and quartz veins accompanied by various types of wall rock alteration, including silicification, pyritization, sericitization, chloritization, pyrophyllitization, and carbonatization. LA-ICP-MS U–Pb zircon ages determined for the ore-bearing rhyolites range between 122 ± 1.4 and 135.2 ± 1.9 million years slightly older than the metallogenic age of the Sipingshan gold deposit. The rhyolite has aluminium saturation index values ranging from 0.015 to 1.25 and shows the following features: enrichment in LILE (e.g. Rb, Pb, K, and Th); depletion of Ba, Sm, and Ti; and negative Eu anomalies. These geochemical characteristics indicate that (1) the rhyolite contains features typical of S-type granites; (2) the felsic magma likely originated through partial melting of the continental crust; and (3) plagioclase crystals were present in the partial melt residues in the magma source region, or else magma evolution involved plagioclase fractionation. The host cherts have high Al/(Al + Fe + Mn) ratios (0.23–0.81, averaging 0.60) and low Al₂O₃ and TiO₂ contents. Their North American shale-normalized REE patterns are characterized by flat REE, slightly positive Eu anomalies, no Ce anomalies, and (La/Yb)_SN ratios of 1.27–1.38, indicating that these cherts formed in a continental margin environment. In addition, the analysed cherts have low ΣREE (1.56–3.64 ppm) and Zr (9.1–13.5 ppm) contents, suggesting a hydrothermal origin. Fluid inclusions in quartz veins show elliptical to irregular shapes that range from 5 to 12 μm in size and have homogenization temperatures of 118.7–223.4°C, densities of 0.84–0.94 g/cm³, and pressures of 21.2–51.4 MPa, indicating that the hot-spring-type Sipingshan gold deposit is epithermal in origin.     

Origin of a carbonate-hosted Fe-Mn-(Ba-As-Pb-Sb-W) deposit of Långban-type in central Sweden

The Sjögruvan deposit is one of the Långban-type Fe-Mn oxide deposits hosted by marble interbeds within Svecofennian metavolcanic rocks in the Bergslagen region, central Sweden. Mineralogical and geochemical studies have been carried out to clarify the premetamorphic origin of this type of deposit, which is set apart from most other Mn mineralizations by a significant enrichment in Ba, As, Sb, Pb, W and Be contained by various oxyminerals. The principal ore types at Sjögruvan are (1) hematite+quartz-magnetite, (2) hausmannite+calcite+tephroite and (3) braunite+celsian+phlogopite. The Mn ores are compositionally akin to modern Mn deposits formed by submarine hydrothermal processes (with a high Mn/Fe ratio and low contents of Co, Ni, Th, U and REE) and likely owe their existence to similar mechanisms of formation. Pb isotope data indicate that the metal source and timing of deposition is similar to the major stratabound base-metal and iron deposits in Bergslagen. All the key elements have been leached from the local felsic volcanic units and were deposited on the sea floor; the excellent Mn-Fe separation occurred in an Eh-pH gradient that essentially corresponded to the mixing zone of hydrothermal solutions and seawater. The braunite ore is chemically distinct from the hausmannite ore, with a high concentration of refractory elements (Al, Ti, Zr) and a positive Ce anomaly, which indicate a detrital/hydrogenetic contribution to its protolith. Carbon isotope ('¹³C) values around 0‰ (relative PDB) suggest that carbonates in the deposit formed directly from seawater.     

广西东南部钦防海槽晚古生代硅质岩地球化学特征及其地质意义*

广西东南部钦防海槽地区晚古生代硅质岩十分发育。对硅质岩主量元素、微量元素及稀土元素的分析结果表明:该区晚古生代硅质岩含有较高的SiO₂,硅化程度较高;除上泥盆统弗拉斯阶及下石炭统硅质岩具有较低的Al/(Al+Fe+Mn)值(0.14～0.24;0.07～0.81)及较高的U/Th值(0.34～5.09;0.16～10.1)外,其他层位硅质岩具有较高的Al/(Al+Fe+Mn)值(0.4～0.95)及较低的U/Th值(0.1～2.1);上泥盆统硅质岩稀土元素比值Ce/Ce^*、La_N/Yb_N及La_N/Ce_N值分别为0.78～1.08、0.4～1.52和0.88～1.35,而下石炭统硅质岩具有较低的Ce/Ce^*值(0.55～0.91)、La_N/Yb_N值(0.12～1.8)及较高的 La_N/Ce_N值(1.12～1.79),中下二叠统硅质岩Ce/Ce^*、La_N/Yb_N及La_N/Ce_N值分别为1.01～1.62、0.72～2.71和0.62～1.9。钦防海槽晚古生代硅质岩地球化学特征表明:晚泥盆世钦防海槽发生扩张,热液活动比较强烈,处于大陆边缘海环境;早石炭世钦防海槽再次发生扩张,热液活动强烈,硅质岩形成于远离陆源的深海海盆环境;早中二叠世,钦防海槽逐渐收缩,海水变浅。钦防海槽晚古生代并没有出现真正的洋壳,可能属于晚古生代古特提斯分支洋盆的一个坳拉槽盆地。     

塔里木下寒武统富有机质沉积层段地球化学特征及意义

塔里木盆地寒武系下统玉尔吐斯组底部富有机质沉积层段分布广泛,层位稳定,其中的硅质岩发育,并伴有磷矿产出.硅质岩的Al(Al Fe Mn)和Si/(Si Al Fe)比值分别在0.0023～0.0046和0.965～0.98之间,表明其形成于海底热水沉积环境,远离陆源区.富有机质沉积层段明显富集As、Hg、Pb、Zn、Cu、Co、P、V、Ba等微量元素,富集系数F(N)远大于1.Ba/Sr比值远远大于1,与现代海底热水沉积物中的Ba/Sr比值相似,具有明显的海底热水沉积特征;Th/U和V/Sc比值显示其形成与海洋缺氧事件有关,而导致缺氧事件发生的主要原因则是海底火山作用及其与之相伴的海底热水流体活动.     

扬子陆块东南缘黑色岩系铀多金属成矿体系和成矿机制

扬子陆块东南缘发生过大规模的铀多金属成矿作用是不争的事实。该区硅质岩和磷块岩样品Fe/Ti、（Fe＋Mn）/Ti、Al/（Al＋Fe＋Mn）等含量比值和微量元素Ni-Co-Zn三角图解表明,硅质岩、硅质磷块岩主要为热水沉积作用的产物。磷块岩在La/Yb-REE图解中,投影点处于玄武岩区,显示其成矿物质来源与深部地质作用有关。稀土元素配分模式落在已知的典型热水沉积物上、下限之间,而在正常沉积物之外。笔者认为,该区发生的大规模铀多金属成矿作用受控于陆缘裂陷成矿环境,陆缘裂陷热水沉积作用或喷气-沉积作用是扬子陆块东南缘发生大规模铀成矿作用的重要机制。     

中国早古生代若干高硒黑色岩系中层状硅质岩的地球化学特征及其成因意义

热液活动对东二沟剖面玉尔吐斯组烃源岩形成的影响

研究热液活动是否会破坏烃源岩的形成。对塔里木盆地东二沟剖面玉尔吐斯组进行地球化学分析,利用δEu、Fe/Ti和（Fe+Mn）/Ti比值研究热液活动,Al/Ti比值替代古生产力,V/Cr、V/（V+Ni）和Ni/Co比值代表氧化还原环境,进而探讨热液活动与古生产力、氧化还原条件以及有机质含量之间的关系。玉尔吐斯组沉积时古生产力水平较低,为贫氧-厌氧环境,下部具有较强的热液活动,中上部热液活动较弱。下部的热液活动虽然促进了古生产力的提高,但TOC含量整体较低,为0.01%～3.58%,平均值为0.64%;中上部热液活动较弱,古生产力水平较低,TOC含量却较高,为0.06%～12.19%,平均值为8.95%,是较好的烃源岩层。岩石薄片显示,与热液活动相关的硅质岩中含有大量的藻类。研究结果表明,较强的热液活动会带来大量的富硅流体,稀释沉积物中的有机质,对烃源岩的形成起破坏作用。     

Hydrothermal gold mineralization at the Hira Buddini gold mine,India: constraints on fluid evolution and fluid sources from boron isotopic compositions of tourmaline

We determined the boron isotope and chemical compositions of tourmaline from the Hira Buddini gold deposit within the Archean Hutti-Maski greenstone belt in southern India to investigate the evolution of the hydrothermal system and to constrain its fluid sources. Tourmaline is a minor but widespread constituent in the inner and distal alteration zones of metabasaltic and metadacite host rocks associated with the hydrothermal gold mineralization. The Hira Buddini tourmaline belongs to the dravite–schorl series with variations in Al, Fe/(Fe+Mg), Ca, Ti, and Cr contents that can be related to their host lithology. The total range of δ¹¹B values determined is extreme, from −13.3‰ to +9.0‰, but 95% of the values are between −4 and +9‰. The boron isotope compositions of metabasalt-hosted tourmaline show a bimodal distribution with peak δ¹¹B values at about −2‰ and +6‰. The wide range and bimodal distribution of boron isotope ratios in tourmaline require an origin from at least two isotopically distinct fluid sources, which entered the hydrothermal system separately and were subsequently mixed. The estimated δ¹¹B values of the hydrothermal fluids, based on the peak tourmaline compositions and a mineralization temperature of 550°C, are around +1 and +10‰. The isotopically lighter of the two fluids is consistent with boron released by metamorphic devolatilization reactions from the greenstone lithologies, whereas the ¹¹B-rich fluid is attributed to degassing of I-type granitic magmas that intruded the greenstone sequence, providing heat and fluids to the hydrothermal system.
