塔里木盆地下奥陶统白云岩类型及其成因*

下奥陶统白云岩是塔里木盆地最现实的重点勘探领域。文中在分析塔里木盆地早奥陶世构造、沉积及古气候等地质背景的基础上,以前人对白云岩的结构分类为基础,从白云岩发育产状出发,将塔里木盆地下奥陶统白云岩划分为灰岩中零散白云石、灰岩中斑状白云石、层状白云岩和沿断裂分布白云岩4类,白云石含量层位上自下而上具有总体减少的趋势。各类白云岩在岩石学特征和发育分布上具有较为明显的差异,局部可重叠出现。灰岩中零散白云石和斑状白云石的岩石学和地球化学及发育分布特征均反映其主要由浅埋藏白云石化作用形成;层状白云岩和沿断裂分布白云岩形成于中深埋藏白云石化作用;各类白云岩的产状特征差异受控于沉积期海平面变化、海水性质及埋藏条件等因素。沿断裂分布白云岩的形成和分布与断裂密切相关,是重要的储集岩石类型。白云岩储集层的形成主要是后期改造的结果,埋藏白云石化作用并未对大规模白云岩储集层的形成起到建设性作用,伴生或后期流体再运移导致的溶蚀作用为其主要成因。     

巢县二叠系栖霞组臭灰岩段异地成因碳酸盐岩

下扬子地区二叠系栖霞组臭灰岩段广泛发育。以巢县为例 ,研究表明组成臭灰岩段的石灰砾岩并非正常沉积。剖面特征 ,岩石学、沉积学和地球化学特征的分析结果 ,显示了石灰砾岩的砾石来源于浅海碳酸盐台地 ,它们作为碳酸盐岩碎屑流的产物 ,沿着台地边缘的斜坡 ,被搬运到半深海—斜坡处再沉积。环绕于砾石周围的胶结物和砾岩层之间的薄层硅质粒泥灰岩 ,主要是由等深流沉积物组成。因此 ,臭灰岩段碳酸盐岩主要是异地成因 ,沉积环境属于碳酸盐台地周缘水体较深的斜坡。     

Lithostratigraphic revision and correlation of the Oligo‐Miocene Murray Supergroup,Western Murray Basin,South Australia

The Murray Basin in southeastern Australia is a large, shallow, intracratonic basin filled with laterally extensive, undeformed, Cenozoic carbonate and terrigenous clastic sedimentary rocks that constitute regional and locally important groundwater aquifers. The marine Oligo‐Miocene strata distributed throughout the southwestern portion of the basin are here encompassed within the Murray Supergroup. The Murray Supergroup (formerly Murray Group) incorporates the marginal marine marl and clay of the Ettrick Formation, Winnambool Formation and Geera Clay in the western and northern portions of the Murray Basin in South Australia, in addition to the limestone that outcrops along the banks of the River Murray in nearly continuous section for 175 km. The stratigraphic nomenclature of these rocks is revised as follows. The boundary between the lower and upper members of the Mannum Formation is redefined and a new Swan Reach Dolomite Member is erected. The Finniss Clay is revised to Finniss Formation possessing three new members: the Cowirra Clay Member, Portee Carbonate Member and Woolpunda Marl Member. The ‘Morgan Limestone’ is raised to Morgan Group and contains three new formations: the Glenforslan Formation, Cadell Formation (with Murbko Marl Member and Overland Corner Clay Member) and Bryant Creek Formation. The Pata Formation is redefined and described. Type and reference sections are erected for each new and revised unit, and are lithostratigraphically correlated to illustrate their stratigraphic architecture.     

The Vendian succession of northeastern Spitsbergen: Petrogenesis of a dolomite-tillite association

The sedimentary record of late Precambrian time is magnificently displayed in the highland snowfields of northeastern Spitsbergen (Svalbard). Vendian strata are represented essentially by the Polarisbreen Group which consists mostly of dolostone and includes two dolomitic glacial units. The oldest sediments in the Polarisbreen Group compose the Elbobreen Formation (c. 400 m), which is divided into four laterally-persistent members. The Lower Carbonate Member (E1, 125 m) contains a distinctive basal dark-grey limestone (with microspar-filled synaeresis cracks) suggested to be of lagoonal origin and associated with minor dolostone, shale and chert. Higher parts of the member are dominantly dolostone, partly stromatolitic, with some shale and sandstone; shallow subtidal to intertidal deposition is indicated by the dominance of intraclastic lithologies and relics of anhydrite. Penecontemporaneous dolomite is partially overprinted by microsparry dolomite, thought to be of groundwater origin.The redefined Petrovbreen Member (E2) consists of diamictite and other detrital dolostone. Pronounced thickness variations (2–40 m) are thought to be original depositional features. The member represents the deposits of a short glacial period in which the following depositional processes are inferred: lodgement (massive diamictite), subaqueous meltout (massive and bedded diamictite), ice-rafting (lithologies bearing dropstones, and possibly also diamictite), redeposition by sediment gravity flows (some diamictite and conglomerate; rhythmite and shale), current winnowing (thin tabular conglomerate), subaerial or subaqueous meltwater action (channelled conglomerate and sandstone), periglacial shrinkage (diamictite wedge-fillings).The MacDonaldryggen Member (E3, 230 m) is a monotonous succession of shaly dolostone of lagoonal origin. It grades up into the Slangen Member (E4, 25 m) which consists of subtidal to intertidal dolarenite with anhydrite relics succeeded by fenestral dolostone that was fractured and cemented by saline groundwaters in an emergent environment.The Wilsonbreen Formation (160 m) represents a return to glacial deposition, but this time longer-lasting and with substantial extra-basinal material represented. The Gropbreen Member (W1, 28–107 m) and the Ormen Member (W3, 44–139 m) consist dominantly of dolomitic diamictite with subordinate conglomerate and sandstone and are separated by a Middle Carbonate Member (W2, 3–30 m) which contains distinctive rhythmitic and stromatolitic limestone as well as sandstone. The same depositional processes can be recognised as in the Petrovbreen Member, but the Wilsonbreen Formation is overall of somewhat more continental aspect (lower proportion of rhythmite and dropstone structures). In addition there are: basal breccia and crack-fillings formed by frost-shattering of the underlying cemented dolostone, tabular sandstone thought to be formed by wave reworking of outwash, a striated (terrestrial) cobble pavement, supraglacially-derived breccia horizons, periglacial wedges filled by sand and the W2 assemblage of possible lacustrine origin.The Dracoisen Formation (525 m) represents an abrupt return to non-glacial conditions. An upward-deepening wave-dominated succession of pure dolostone (D1, 20 m) and impure dolostone (D2, 105 m) is succeeded by offshore black shale (D3, 150 m) and then by a very-shallow water succession of evaporite lacustrine aspect with a dolostone containing evaporite relics (D5, 10 m) separating dolomitic sandstone and shale (D4, 80 m and D6, 150 m). The contact with the transgressive Cambrian sandstones above is poorly exposed.Deposition of the succession dominantly under marine conditions is inferred, but it is difficult to rule out a lacustrine environment at any particular horizon. This dolomite—tillite association can be explained by penecontemporaneous (and minor secondary) dolomite formation in marginal environments (with warm climatic indicators at some levels) being sharply interrupted, because of rapid climatic changes, by glacial sediments containing abundant detrital dolomite. Since the latter sediments make up only 17% of the 1080m-thick succession, glacial conditions only occupied a small proportion of Vendian time.     

四川盆地河坝地区下三叠统嘉陵江组气藏储集层沉积特征与成岩作用*

利用录井、测井和地震资料,运用岩心观察、薄片观察以及扫描电镜等方法,结合孔隙度、渗透率、微量元素和同位素分析测试结果,对四川盆地东北部河坝地区下三叠统嘉陵江组二段气藏主要储集层段进行地层对比、沉积特征、储集层特征及成岩作用研究。结果显示:(1)河坝地区嘉陵江组二段顶、底界面特征清楚,可进一步划分为3个亚段,储集层主要发育在嘉二中亚段的白云岩中,总体为局限台地沉积,发育台内滩、潮坪和潟湖等微相,台内滩是储集层发育的最有利沉积微相,主要位于河坝区块的中部;(2)储集岩岩性主要为残余(藻)砂屑白云岩、细粉晶白云岩,孔隙类型主要以晶间(溶)孔和粒内溶孔为主,总体以低孔、低渗的Ⅲ类储集层为主,储集层空间类型主要为裂缝—孔隙型;(3)储集岩的成岩作用类型有泥晶化、溶蚀、胶结、白云岩化、压实压溶和破裂等,储集层的形成主要与准同生期的大气水溶蚀作用、深埋条件下的埋藏溶蚀作用以及构造裂缝的发育有关;(4)准同生期的大气水溶蚀作用是嘉二段颗粒碳酸盐岩孔隙发育的基础,白云岩化、埋藏溶蚀等埋藏成岩作用有利于孔隙的改善,微古地貌高地发育区及断裂、裂缝相对发育区可能为储集层发育有利区。     

重庆北碚和平水库剖面下侏罗统大安寨段湖相碳酸盐岩岩石类型及沉积环境

四川盆地下侏罗统自流井组大安寨段一直是四川盆地致密油勘探的重要层位之一。针对该层位的研究已逾半个世纪,但岩石类型分类粗略、沉积环境及储集岩类型认识不清等问题是导致该层段致密油勘探未获重大突破的重要原因。鉴于此,笔者等开展了对四川盆地东部重庆北碚和平水库剖面下侏罗统自流井组大安寨段湖相碳酸盐岩岩石类型及沉积环境的研究。研究发现,该剖面大安寨段为湖相碎屑岩与碳酸盐岩的混合沉积,由5大类岩石组成,可细分为14种岩石类型。碳酸盐岩厚度占剖面总厚度的60％以上,以泥晶灰岩为主,介壳灰岩和介屑灰岩次之;在纵向上形成了4个较为典型的向上变浅沉积序列。根据各岩石类型宏观、微观沉积特征及岩石纵向组合形式,进一步分析了各岩石类型的沉积环境,结果表明,北碚地区下侏罗统大安寨段沉积时期为滨、浅湖环境,以低能碳酸盐沉积为主;高能与较低能环境成因的介壳滩并非碳酸盐沉积的主体。湖泊进入碳酸盐沉积阶段和钙质骨壳生物的大量繁育是大安寨期湖相碳酸盐岩形成的主要原因。结晶介屑灰岩和泥晶白云岩可能是川东地区致密油的储集岩类,在今后的勘探中,应提高对滨浅湖环境、易受大气淡水改造的岩石类型的重视程度。

平邑盆地官庄群湖相碳酸盐岩的古地理意义

[摘 要] 本文旨在以平邑盆地官庄群湖相碳酸盐岩为例,研究湖相碳酸盐岩的古地理指示意义。以沉积学理论为指导,依据野外露头剖面分析了平邑盆地古近纪官庄群的地层及其沉积特点,结合盆地的形成及演化,分析了古生物、古气候、物源、水介质物理化学条件等沉积环境条件,明确了官庄群湖相碳酸盐岩沉积时的古地理格局与特征。研究表明平邑盆地在古近纪官庄群沉积时为温暖的内陆淡水湖泊环境,构造活动相对静止,地形平坦,有利于湖泊相碳酸盐岩沉积,且碳酸盐岩集中发育在浅水、中等偏低能量、低陆源碎屑物质的环境。从而说明湖相碳酸盐岩地层形成的古地理背景为构造活动平静、地形平坦、浅水低能沉积环境。     

Submarine silica-rich hydrothermal activity during the earliest Cambrian in the Tarim Basin,Northwest China

Siliceous rocks were widely deposited in many continents during the Ediacaran–Cambrian (E–C) transition. Based on detailed field investigations in the Aksu area of the Tarim Basin in Northwest China, this study presents evidence of a submarine silica-rich hydrothermal system preserved in the E–C boundary successions. This system consists of a lower stockwork silica-dominant vein swarm zone in the karstified dolostone of the uppermost Ediacaran Qigebulake Formation, which terminates directly under the overlying bedded chert and black shale succession of the lowermost Cambrian Yurtus Formation. The stockwork vein swarms were filled dominantly by a wide spectrum of silica precipitates (amorphous silica, chalcedony, spherulite, fine to coarse quartz) with subordinate pyrite, Fe-(oxyhydr)oxide, and barite. The host dolostones that were dissected by the vein swarms also suffered extensive silicification and recrystallization. The vertical stacking relationship of silica-dominant vein swarms and overlying bedded chert suggests they were formed by an identical low-temperature, silica-rich diffusive submarine hydrothermal system in the earliest Cambrian. This suggestion is further supported by fluid inclusion microthermometry (T_h 40–200°C) of the quartz-barite vein fills. In this case, silica-rich hydrothermal fluids were channelled and precipitated partially along the stockwork veins in the antecedent karstified dolostone and vented mostly into seawater, promoting widespread deposition of bedded chert on the seafloor of Tarim Basin in the earliest Cambrian. This study provides a useful clue and analogue to understand the widespread silica deposition and coeval vast oceanic and geochemical changes during the E–C transition in the Tarim Basin and elsewhere.     

西藏羌塘盆地中侏罗世布曲期及夏里期岩相古地理与油气远景

在露头剖面地层学及沉积学研究的基础上,采用单因素分析多因素综合作图法,编制了西藏羌塘盆地中侏罗世布曲期和夏里期的单因素图和岩相古地理图。布曲期以碳酸盐岩沉积为主,自北而南依次发育局限台地（潮坪、泻湖）、开阔台地（台盆、浅滩/点礁）、台缘礁/浅滩、台缘斜坡、盆地等沉积（亚）相;夏里期以陆源碎屑沉积为主,发育泻湖、潮坪、滨岸、陆棚等沉积（亚）相。布曲组台盆和泻湖相泥灰岩和泥晶灰岩是良好的烃源岩,台缘礁和浅滩相碳酸盐岩是良好的储集岩,而上覆的夏里组泻湖和潮坪相泥岩和膏盐层是良好的区域性盖层,共同构成良好的生、储、盖组合。该生储盖组合大都被上覆的上侏罗统、白垩系、第三系覆盖。因此,布曲组是盆地内最好的油气勘探目的层,沿中央隆起带两侧以及北羌塘地区的琵琶湖－半岛湖凸起一带应是油气勘探的有利区带。     

Neoproterozoic glaciomarine and cap dolostone facies of the southwestern Taoudéni Basin (Walidiala Valley,Senegal/Guinea,NW Africa)

The Neoproterozoic-age Mali Group of the southwestern Taoudéni Basin, NW Africa, represents, in the Walidiala Valley, a glaciogenic and post-glacial succession that brackets the Cryogenian–Ediacaran period boundary. At its base, debris flows and turbidite-like, sandy units of the Pelel Member pass upward into siltstone and shale of the Diagoma Member. These two units represent the progressive evolution from some portion of a fan delta fed by a nearby ice shelf to a more distal environment disturbed only by the occasional fallout from passing icebergs. The appearance of coarse-grained, cross-bedded sandstone beds and gravels of the overlying Tanagué Member heralds a return to a shallower, fluvially influenced environment before abrupt transgression caps the glaciogenic succession. The transgressive unit consists of a regionally extensive, 2–7 m-thick, silty dolostone, the Bowal Member, which is isotopically and petrographically indistinguishable from ca. 635-Ma cap dolostone units elsewhere in NW Africa and worldwide. The Bowal Member comprises microcrystalline dolomite in turbidite-like depositional sheets disrupted by internal brecciation, fracturing and cementation by first chert and then dolomite. The stratigraphic succession in the Walidiala Valley closely resembles facies models relating to glacial retreat in a proximal glaciomarine environment affected by glacioeustasy. A large volcaniclastic debris flow has caused slumping and soft-sediment deformation within the cap dolostone of the Bowal Member. The widespread association of pyroclastic deposits with cap dolostone throughout the Taoudéni Basin implies that volcanism and deglaciation were roughly contemporaneous across a huge area. We consider that the volcaniclastic debris flow and soft-sediment deformation within the underlying Tanagué Member were possibly triggered by seismic activity during deglaciation, caused by isostatic relaxation of the lithosphere. However, fitted brecciation of cap dolostone beds here and elsewhere in the world is more consistent with pervasive dolomite cementation.     

宁夏中奥陶统香山群徐家圈组内波和内潮汐沉积*

宁夏中奥陶统香山群为一套遭受轻微区域变质的陆源碎屑岩,并夹有少量碳酸盐岩和硅质岩,主要为深水浊流沉积。其中,徐家圈组主要由灰绿色、黄绿色轻变质细砂岩、钙质砂岩及粉砂岩和页岩组成,顶部发育有薄层石灰岩。在该组的中—薄层钙质粉—细砂岩、细粉屑质石灰岩和粉砂质页岩中发现了双向交错层理及纹层倾向与区域斜坡倾向相反或有较大夹角的单向交错层理,其中双向交错层理形态丰富、纹层清晰,其纹层倾向有沿斜坡向上的,有沿斜坡向下的。在深水环境中,这些交错层理不应是等深流沉积或浊流沉积的产物,而应为内波产生的沿斜坡上下水流交替流动所形成的。从沉积背景、沉积构造和古水流等方面对徐家圈组的内波、内潮汐沉积进行了详细的研究,认为其形成于水道不发育的深水斜坡环境,并对斜坡环境中内波、内潮汐沉积中不发育脉状、波状和透镜状层理的现象进行了解释。

四川盆地西部中二叠统茅口组油气地质条件及勘探潜力

四川盆地西部中二叠统茅口组为碳酸盐岩浅水缓坡相沉积,高能浅滩亚相颗粒岩发育。茅口组沉积末期,研究区古表生岩溶作用强烈,有利于岩溶储层发育。中二叠统发育栖霞组和茅口组碳酸盐岩、梁山组泥质岩等多套烃源岩,烃源岩厚度大,品质较好;各套烃源岩从中三叠世末起相继达到生烃高峰,资源潜力大。茅口组中上部发育两类储层:裂缝-孔洞型(或裂缝型)储层和白云岩孔隙型储层。钻井及露头剖面揭示茅口组含气性好。高能滩相沉积区与岩溶斜坡带叠合区是茅口组储层发育的有利地区。茅口组之上的区域盖层发育,保存条件好。认为川西地区茅口组具有良好的天然气勘探前景。     

安徽巢北地区栖霞组臭灰岩段富有机质成因探讨

以安徽巢北地区二叠纪栖霞组臭灰岩段为研究对象,从岩石学、古生物学及沉积学特征出发,探讨臭灰岩段富有机质与风暴事件沉积之间的关系。臭灰岩段岩性整体为灰黑色中厚层状石灰岩,层间夹数毫米至数厘米厚灰黑色钙质泥岩,整套岩层富含有机质;其中生物化石丰富,整体为热带、亚热带正常盐度浅水生物组合为特征;为正常浅海碳酸盐岩台地沉积,沉积期表现为一个明显的海侵过程,并受风暴作用的频繁扰动。臭灰岩段沉积环境并非“贫氧或缺氧”条件,而是正常富氧环境。富有机质特征一方面得益于沉积期较高的生物产率,同时还与风暴事件沉积作用密切相关,即在风暴作用下,沉积物发生快速堆积,有机质未来得及与富氧水体发生长期接触即被埋藏覆盖,从而导致有机质被良好保存,形成臭灰岩段富有机质特征。风暴作用频发与研究区臭灰岩段沉积期所处的低纬度特征有关。

四川盆地裂陷槽研究新进展——关于裂陷槽成因机制与形成时间的探讨

最新钻井和地震资料研究表明,四川盆地裂陷槽内大部分地区缺失震旦系（埃辿卡拉系）灯影组灯四段、灯三段及灯二段上部地层,灯二段仅残留富藻层及以下地层,震旦系地层具有环状剥蚀特征;残留的灯二段岩性主要为泥粉晶白云岩、藻纹层白云岩、藻格架白云岩、雪花状构造白云岩及砂砾屑白云岩,局部层段葡萄花边构造发育,沉积相属于典型的局限台地,沉积特征与盆地内其它地区灯影组沉积特征相同,表明在震旦纪四川盆地碳酸盐台地内部并没有明显的构造分异。本文从地层、沉积特征及构造动力机制方面提出了四川盆地裂陷槽成因的解释意见,认为震旦系内部的裂陷槽形成于震旦系沉积之后,其成因可能与地幔柱拱升—地层剥蚀—地幔柱塌陷再沉降有关。     

塔里木盆地东北部中上奥陶统却尔却克群深水碳酸盐岩及白云岩化*

塔里木盆地东北部库鲁克塔格中上奥陶统却尔却克群中的深水碳酸盐岩及其白云岩化是较为特殊的沉积与成岩作用类型之一。通过对南雅尔当山剖面详细观察与采样分析,阐明了其沉积学、岩石学及地球化学特征:深水碳酸盐岩的顶、底均与浊积岩伴生,呈重力滑覆-带状分布,主要由黄灰色-灰色、大多呈薄层瘤状的白云岩夹泥页岩构成;可见到海绵骨针、三叶虫等浮游生物化石以及分选差的花岗岩、火山岩及硅质岩等碎屑;基本保留了原始沉积中的溶解、水平层理等较深水沉积的特征。该套白云岩包括泥粉晶白云岩、细晶白云岩或残余陆屑白云岩、巨型藻鲕白云岩和生屑泥粉晶白云岩等9类白云岩;白云石有序度为0.47~0.56和0.70~0.76,中强阴极发光,经历了2期较强的白云岩化作用;富含SiO₂、Al₂O₃、Mg、Mn、Fe、MnO和TiO₂;δ³⁴S_V-CDT为-0.2~6.6,ΣREE含量为46.7×10^-6~67.4×10^-6,呈正铕负铈的“帽式”稀土配分模式,反映相对还原沉积环境;反映沉积水体盐度的Na₂O+K₂O、Sr、Ba含量偏低, ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr 值相对偏高,δ¹⁸O_PDB 、δ¹³C_PDB稍低,不能指示原始海水或原始环境。综合上述分析结果认为:这套深水碳酸盐岩形成于向上变浅的缓坡带,其发生了浅埋藏、中-深埋藏条件下的2期白云岩化,且受构造推覆或重力滑覆至外陆棚,并发生裂隙-溶蚀作用和白云石、方解石及烃类的充填作用。     

Sedimentology of 40 000 year Milankovitch-controlled cyclothems from central Hawke's Bay, New Zealand

Cyclothemic sedimentary rocks of the Plio-Pleistocene Petane Group outcrop extensively in the Tangoio block of central Hawke's Bay, New Zealand. They are products of inner to mid-shelf sedimentation and were deposited during glacio-eustatic sea level fluctuations along the western margin of a shallow, pericontinental seaway located in a forearc setting. The succession consists of five laterally continuous cyclothems, each containing a fine grained interval of silt and a coarse grained interval of siliciclastic sand ± gravel or limestone. Five sedimentary facies assemblages comprising 20 separate facies have been recognized. Coarse grained intervals of cyclothems were deposited mostly during relative sea level lowstands and contain up to four facies assemblages: (1) a non-marine assemblage (with three component facies, representing braided river and overbank environments); (2) an estuarine assemblage (with three component facies, representing tidal flat and mud-dominated estuarine environments); (3) a siliciclastic shoreline assemblage (with six component facies, representing greywacke pebble beach, shoreface and inner shelf environments); and (4) a carbonate shelf assemblage (with four component facies, representing tide-dominated, inshore and shallow marine environments). Fine grained intervals of cyclothems were deposited during sea level highstands when the Tangoio area was generally experiencing mid-shelf sedimentation. This produced an offshore assemblage consisting of four component facies. The distribution of facies assemblages during relative sea level lowstands was dependent upon proximity to the shoreline, the type and rate of sediment supply to the basin, and shelf hydrodynamics. Carbonate shelf facies dominate coarse grained intervals in Cyclothems 3–5, but siliciclastic shoreline and non-marine facies dominate in Cyclothems 1 and 2. The abrupt change from siliciclastic to carbonate sedimentation during relative sea level lowstand deposition is thought to have been induced by rapidly falling interglacial to glacial sea level accentuated by regional tectonic shoaling. This caused most of the terrigenous sediment supply to bypass the Tangoio area. Consequently, carbonate sediment accumulated in inshore and shallow marine settings. Facies assemblages rarely show lateral interdigitation, but are vertically stratified over the entire Tangoio block. Facies successions in each cyclothem preserve a record of relative sea level change during deposition of the Petane Group and are consistent with a Plio-Pleistocene sea level change in eastern New Zealand of c. 75–150 m, i.e. approximately the magnitude suggested for Late Quaternary glacio-eustatic sea level changes.
