3D Gravity Inversion by Growing Bodies and Shaping Layers at Mt. Vesuvius (Southern Italy)

To improve our knowledge of the structural pattern of Mt. Vesuvius and its magmatic system, which represents one of the three volcanoes located in the Neapolitan area (together with Campi Flegrei and Ischia; southern Italy), we analyze here the Bouguer gravity map that is already available through its interpretation by means of 2.5-dimensional modelling. We have carried out a three-dimensional interpretation using a new and original algorithm, known as ‘Layers’, that has been especially processed for this purpose. Layers works in an automatic and non-subjective way, and allows the definition of the structural settings in terms of several layers, each representing a specific geological formation. The same data are also interpreted in terms of isolated and shallow anomalous density bodies using a well tested algorithm known as ‘Growth’. We focus our inversions on the Mt. Vesuvius volcano, while globally analyzing the entire Neapolitan area, in order to investigate the deep structures, and in particular the deep extended ‘sill’ that has been revealed by seismic tomography. The final models generally confirm the global setting of the area as outlined by previous investigations, mainly for the shape and depth of the carbonate basement below Mt. Vesuvius. The presence of lateral density contrasts inside the volcano edifice is also shown, which was only hypothesized in the 2.5-dimensional inversion. Moreover, the models allow us to note a high density body that rises from the top of the carbonate basement and further elongates above sea level. This probably represents an uprising of the same basement, which is just below the volcano and which coincides with the V_P and V_P/V_S anomalies detected under the crater. The three-dimensional results also reveal that the two inversion methods provide very similar models, where the high density isolated body in the Growth model can be associated with the rising high density anomaly in the Layers model. Taking into account the density of these modelled bodies, we would also suggest that they represent solidified magma bodies, as suggested by other studies. Finally, we did not clearly detect any deep anomalous body that can be associated with the sill that was suggested by seismic tomography.     

基于交叉梯度约束的重力、磁法和大地电磁三维联合反演

为了降低单一地球物理方法反演的多解性及受噪声的影响程度,本文围绕重力、磁法和大地电磁法开展了三维联合反演的研究.重、磁采用基于对数障碍法的正则化反演算法,大地电磁使用limited-memory BroydenFletcher-Goldfarb-Shanno(L-BFGS)反演算法,引入交叉梯度函数实现了三种物性结构的相互耦合,最终开发出一套重磁电三维联合反演算法,并实现MPI并行加速计算.通过理论模型算例验证了算法的准确性,结果表明:不论是单棱柱体模型还是组合棱柱体模型,联合反演结果相较单独反演对于异常体的空间形态刻画以及物性数值恢复具有较好的提升;单棱柱体模型算例使得异常体的物性参数(密度、磁化率和电阻率)更加接近于真实的物性参数;组合棱柱体模型的联合反演结果不仅仅消除了围岩物性参数的假异常,而且还增强了异常体边界结构的恢复程度.     

Palaeomagnetic distortion modelling and possible recovery by inversion

A robust finite-element technique is presented for computation of both the internal demagnetization effects and magnetic terrain effects in bodies with arbitrary shape and arbitrary susceptibility distribution. This method facilitates a flexible analysis of the palaeomagnetic deflection problem. Tests on geologically realistic settings of highly magnetic rocks demonstrate that deflections of several degrees may occur even for relatively simple two-dimensional models. Similarly, the magnetic intensity may well be biased by 5-15% by demagnetization effects. The present paper focuses on deflections and intensity variations inside the magnetized body, where we find a systematic shallowing of inclination for bodies with a horizontal elongation. Because the bodies sampled at a typical palaeomagnetic site will have a dominant direction of elongation, the magnetic deflection effect will tend to impose a systematic bias which doesn’t average out. An inversion-based procedure for elimination of the deflection effect is presented. It requires that the magnetic body is quite homogeneous and that its surface geometry is known, as may be the case for historical lava flows. Tests demonstrate that in order to recover both ambient palaeofield direction and the effective susceptibility at blocking temperature it is necessary to sample near strong topographic elements in the magnetic body. Since the surface geometry rarely is known it is proposed as an alternative to inversion that an effective susceptibility is assessed and a horizontal slab correction is applied for samples taken far from topographical features. When shape geometry is unknown and no correction applied, palaeomagnetic conclusions must take into account the possible bias from internal demagnetization and magnetic terrain effects.     

重磁三维反演伊犁盆地中部密度和磁性结构

伊犁盆地中部区域地处多个构造单元的交汇区,构造复杂,缺乏高精度地质资料,制约了对盆地构造演化的进一步认识.本文联合使用多种先验信息作为约束条件,利用高精度重磁数据反演获得了研究区地下海拔-10 km以浅的三维密度和磁性结构,增强了反演结果的可靠性.结果揭示以白石墩次凸为中心发育了一个"北断南超"的南西-北东向不对称型凹陷,北部沉积厚度大于南部;区内主要断裂具有高角度特征,生烃中心受断裂控制,阿吾拉勒山前凹陷浅部可能发育逆掩断裂;火成岩以侵入的基性火成岩为主,伴有部分喷出火成岩和中酸性火成岩.     

基于柯西分布约束和快速近端目标函数优化的三维重力反演方法

优化算法的选取在很大程度上影响着三维重力反演的计算效率,从而制约着三维重力反演的实用性.在复杂地质构造背景下,不同岩性单元之间可能会发生物性突变,产生尖锐边界.为此,本文提出了一种新的基于柯西分布约束和快速近端目标函数（Fast Proximal Objective Function,FPOF）优化的三维重力反演方法.FPOF优化方法的一个突出特点是在每一步迭代过程中逐一计算剖分网格内的未知密度参数,因此,有较低的计算复杂度和较高的计算效率.此外,目标函数中柯西范数（Cauchy norm）的引入会对反演结果施加稀疏性,有助于产生块状效果.理论模型测试表明,本文方法不仅能产生更加聚焦的反演效果,而且反演所需的时间也比传统的共轭梯度优化方法少.最后将本文方法应用于我国西部某地区实际重力数据,反演结果与已知的地质信息有较好的一致性.     

强磁性体ΔT异常计算的误差分析研究

本文主要针对当前磁法勘探中高精度处理解释的需求,对强磁性体ΔT异常计算存在的误差进行分析研究.我们首先通过理论模型计算试验,证明常规计算采用的投影关系的ΔT与实际测量的模量差ΔT之间的误差E在磁异常幅值大时是明显存在的,其影响不容忽视.其次,当磁性强且剩磁存在时,投影ΔT曲线及其误差曲线在磁化方向与地磁场方向改变时具有一定的对称性;地磁场T0、磁性体形态(如二度水平圆柱体模型的半径r、柱体埋深R)和磁性参数(如磁化率κ)等参数确定的情况下,最大误差值出现在磁性体正上方,且其大小与磁性参数(κ)和模型体规模(如r/R)之间皆是指数关系;另外,研究还发现ΔT的计算误差曲线的一些其他规律特点,如在各纬度带上,ΔT计算误差的最大值Emax曲线的极值主要分布在中纬度地区;磁异常矢量Ta与地磁场T0的夹角θ逐渐变化时,随θ变化Emax曲线的极值分布在θ=90°~120°范围内;当磁异常幅值小于10000nT时,最大误差近似为磁异常矢量垂直于地磁场方向的测点附近的误差值;另外,磁性体(圆柱体为例)的半径(即尺度)与埋深的比值r/R超过0.5,且磁化率超过0.1SI时误差已达到3.9nT,磁化率增大与对应的Emax的值呈指数增长特点.因此,我们的研究表明,在强磁性体、磁异常幅值大的数据处理、反演及解释时,现有方法会产生较大的误差,应该基于严格的模量差ΔT,完善相应的处理以及反演方法.

Magnetic studies of basalt fragments recovered by deep drilling in Iceland,and the “magnetic layer” concept

The magnetic susceptibility of 1300 samples of igneous rock drill cuttings obtained from eight deep drill holes in Iceland has been measured, in order to directly provide limits on the thickness of the layer which is the source of the magnetic anomalies over Iceland. The remanent magnetism of some of the material has also been studied, and the variation of magnetic susceptibility in 740 lava flows from eastern Iceland has been analysed as a function of depth of burial.All the results indicate no systematic change of susceptibility with depth up to 2.0 km. The Curie point of all deeply buried basalts in Iceland appears to be close to that of magnetite, so that the magnetic layer may be 5 km or more in thickness when susceptibility contrasts are considered; lateral contrasts in primary remanence may reach to 3 km depth. Derivation of a magnetic layer thickness in Iceland from analyses of magnetic anomalies, using methods which have been conventionally applied to marine magnetic anomalies could, on the other hand, yield much lower apparent thickness values (less than 1 km).We therefore argue that estimates of the magnetic layer thickness in oceanic regions should be based on considerations of magnetite Curie point isotherm behaviour, rather than on anomaly analysis.     

TRANSFORMATION OF MAGNETOMETRIC DATA INTO TECTONIC MAPS BY DIGITAL TEMPLATE ANALYSIS*

Results of gravimetric surveys can be interpreted by comparing the Bouguer field values with master curves based on simplified geological models. It has been shown in a previous paper how this procedure can be transformed into routine processes which can be computerized. The application of this method has yielded useful results in detailed gravity surveys. The present paper discusses the application of the same interpretation principles to magnetic data. After some modifications, the method elaborated for the gravimetric data can be used for the interpretation of magnetometric survey results. Magnetometric-tectonic maps are obtained which show the structural picture by common geological symbols. In the case of faults, the dimensions of depth of burial and throw are indicated on the maps. The method is illustrated by an example where these procedures have been applied to gravimetric and magnetometric data of the same area. Two different maps are obtained: One shows the tectonics according to density contrasts and the other map depicts the tectonic situation on the basis of magnetic susceptibility contrasts.     

基于印模法的地面磁电阻率数据三维非线性共轭梯度反演

本文提出了能提高异常体分辨能力,同时得到绝对电导率的地面磁电阻率数据三维反演方法.磁电阻率响应用准直流的低频磁场代替;数值模拟由频率域电场满足的Helmholtz方程出发,采用三维交错网格有限差分法;长直导线源作为发射源,其中源的计算包含在背景场中;结合地面磁电阻率数据各分量的特点,选择y分量进行反演研究;反演采用三维非线性共轭梯度反演技术,为了提高异常体的深度分辨能力,进行迭代重构反演;用印模法对初始模型进行重构,采用的是辅模型在浅部,元模型在深部的组合方式.从合成数据和实际数据的反演结果可以得到以下的认识:(1)由频率域麦克斯韦方程组出发,低频磁场数据反演可以直接得到电导率,而不是相对电导率之比;(2)采用印模法组合初始模型,进行迭代重构反演,可以提高地面磁电阻率数据反演对异常体的分辨能力,确定埋深位置,同时不会丧失对于浅部异常体的分辨能力;(3)在结合印模法的地面磁电阻率数据三维反演中,深部异常体的分辨能力受地表不均匀导电体影响较小;(4)确定印模深度可以采用上一次重构反演结束时的模型变化量,通过相邻两次重构反演结束时的模型变化量之差来确定迭代重构是否终止.因为静磁场与重力场在数学上的相似性,本文的反演方法可以被运用到重力场等位场的地面数据的反演中.

INTERPRETATION OF POTENTIAL FIELD DATA A GENERALIZED INVERSE APPROACH*

The interpretation of potential field data from two-dimensional structures with a single interface of density or susceptibility contrasts is solved in terms of generalized matrix inversion. The model equations are derived, and important features of generalized matrix inversion are treated. The method is subsequently used to solve two gravity problems, an artificial one where the solution is known, and a geophysical one related to the crust-mantle interface. The solution is shown to compare well with the FFT results of Oldenburg. The method is also used to solve two magnetic problems, an artificial one with the solution known, and a geophysical one from the continental shelf of Greenland. The advantages and limitations of the method are finally discussed.     

Magnetic fields of 3-D anisotropic bodies: Theory and practice of calculations

The general theory of the distribution of the volume and surface magnetic mass within 3-D anisotropic bodies and solving the forward problem is given in this paper. An algorithm for calculating the magnetic fields of monoclines of complex shape and folded structures with uniform anisotropy is constructed. The algorithm is based on the regularities in the relationship between the magnetic susceptibility of anisotropy, tectonic structure, and the anomalous magnetic field established experimentally by Zavoisky. These regularities not only simplify the solution of the problem, but significantly facilitate the preparation of original field data necessary for solving it. The latter circumstance is of especial importance. The algorithm is designed for wide practical application in the construction of 3-D magnetic models of local and regional geological structures.We draw attention to the fact that the use of a curvilinear coordinate system is reasonable in cases when the distribution of the magnetic mass density in anisotropic geological formations is studied.The features of the relationship between the intensity and induction of a magnetic field in different unit systems are pointed out in their application to magnetology problems.     

磁化强度矢量反演新方法及其在卡拉塔格铜多金属矿床找矿中的应用

磁异常的反演是地球物理勘探的重要手段,三维磁化率反演是磁异常定量解释中的一种重要方法.由于剩磁的存在使得磁化方向与地磁场方向产生偏差,从而影响了磁异常反演与解释的精度.本文基于磁异常模量反演和磁化强度矢量反演方法得到了一种新的磁化强度矢量反演方法.与以往的磁化强度矢量反演方法相比,该方法以磁异常模量反演得到的磁化率模型为约束,采用Lp范数正则化方法求解,提高了磁化强度矢量反演的精度和效率.本文通过模拟试验的反演计算,验证了这种磁化强度矢量反演方法的有效性.最后,将本文方法应用于新疆东天山卡拉塔格地区航磁数据的解释,获得了地下空间不同磁性差异的磁性体的空间分布特征,为进一步分析研究区隐伏矿床提供了重要信息.     

Out‐of‐plane effects in 2D borehole‐to‐surface resistivity tomography and applications in mineral exploration

In this paper, we discuss the effects of anomalous out‐of‐plane bodies in two‐dimensional (2D) borehole‐to‐surface electrical resistivity tomography with numerical resistivity modelling and synthetic inversion tests. The results of the two groups of synthetic resistivity model tests illustrate that anomalous bodies out of the plane of interest have an effect on two‐dimensional inversion and that the degree of influence of out‐of‐plane body on inverted images varies. The different influences are derived from two cases. One case is different resistivity models with the same electrode array, and the other case is the same resistivity model with different electrode arrays. Qualitative interpretation based on the inversion tests shows that we cannot find a reasonable electrode array to determine the best inverse solution and reveal the subsurface resistivity distribution for all types of geoelectrical models. Because of the three‐dimensional effect arising from neighbouring anomalous bodies, the qualitative interpretation of inverted images from the two‐dimensional inversion of electrical resistivity tomography data without prior information can be misleading. Two‐dimensional inversion with drilling data can decrease the three‐dimensional effect. We employed two‐ and three‐dimensional borehole‐to‐surface electrical resistivity tomography methods with a pole–pole array and a bipole–bipole array for mineral exploration at Abag Banner and Hexigten Banner in Inner Mongolia, China. Different inverse schemes were carried out for different cases. The subsurface resistivity distribution obtained from the two‐dimensional inversion of the field electrical resistivity tomography data with sufficient prior information, such as drilling data and other non‐electrical data, can better describe the actual geological situation. When there is not enough prior information to carry out constrained two‐dimensional inversion, the three‐dimensional electrical resistivity tomography survey is the better choice.     

Analysis and interpretation of anomalous conductivity and magnetic permeability effects in time domain electromagnetic data: Part I: Numerical modeling

Time domain electromagnetic (TDEM) response is usually associated with eddy currents in conductive bodies, since this is the dominant effect. However, other effects, such as displacement currents from dielectric processes and magnetic fields associated with rock magnetization, can contribute to TDEM response. In this paper we analyze the effect of magnetization on TDEM data. We use a 3-D code based on finite-difference method, developed by Wang and Hohmann [Geophysics 58 (1993) 797], to study transient electromagnetic field propagation through a medium containing bodies with both anomalous conductivity and anomalous magnetic permeability. The remarkable result is that the combination of anomalous conductivity and permeability within the same body could increase significantly the anomalous TDEM response in comparison with purely conductive or purely magnetic anomalies. This effect has to be taken into account in interpretation of TDEM data over electrical inhomogeneous structures with potentially anomalous magnetic permeability.     

Two-Dimensional Magnetotelluric Modelling of Ore Deposits: Improvements in Model Constraints by Inclusion of Borehole Measurements

A combination of magnetotelluric (MT) measurements on the surface and in boreholes (without metal casing) can be expected to enhance resolution and reduce the ambiguity in models of electrical resistivity derived from MT surface measurements alone. In order to quantify potential improvement in inversion models and to aid design of electromagnetic (EM) borehole sensors, we considered two synthetic 2D models containing ore bodies down to 3000 m depth (the first with two dipping conductors in resistive crystalline host rock and the second with three mineralisation zones in a sedimentary succession exhibiting only moderate resistivity contrasts). We computed 2D inversion models from the forward responses based on combinations of surface impedance measurements and borehole measurements such as (1) skin-effect transfer functions relating horizontal magnetic fields at depth to those on the surface, (2) vertical magnetic transfer functions relating vertical magnetic fields at depth to horizontal magnetic fields on the surface and (3) vertical electric transfer functions relating vertical electric fields at depth to horizontal magnetic fields on the surface. Whereas skin-effect transfer functions are sensitive to the resistivity of the background medium and 2D anomalies, the vertical magnetic and electric field transfer functions have the disadvantage that they are comparatively insensitive to the resistivity of the layered background medium. This insensitivity introduces convergence problems in the inversion of data from structures with strong 2D resistivity contrasts. Hence, we adjusted the inversion approach to a three-step procedure, where (1) an initial inversion model is computed from surface impedance measurements, (2) this inversion model from surface impedances is used as the initial model for a joint inversion of surface impedances and skin-effect transfer functions and (3) the joint inversion model derived from the surface impedances and skin-effect transfer functions is used as the initial model for the inversion of the surface impedances, skin-effect transfer functions and vertical magnetic and electric transfer functions. For both synthetic examples, the inversion models resulting from surface and borehole measurements have higher similarity to the true models than models computed exclusively from surface measurements. However, the most prominent improvements were obtained for the first example, in which a deep small-sized ore body is more easily distinguished from a shallow main ore body penetrated by a borehole and the extent of the shadow zone (a conductive artefact) underneath the main conductor is strongly reduced. Formal model error and resolution analysis demonstrated that predominantly the skin-effect transfer functions improve model resolution at depth below the sensors and at distance of \(\sim \) 300–1000 m laterally off a borehole, whereas the vertical electric and magnetic transfer functions improve resolution along the borehole and in its immediate vicinity. Furthermore, we studied the signal levels at depth and provided specifications of borehole magnetic and electric field sensors to be developed in a future project. Our results suggest that three-component SQUID and fluxgate magnetometers should be developed to facilitate borehole MT measurements at signal frequencies above and below 1 Hz, respectively.

强剩磁的存在通常导致了总磁化强度方向未知,进而影响了磁异常的反演和解释.磁异常模量是一种受磁化方向影响小的转换量,可以在强剩磁条件下通过反演三维磁化强度大小分布来推测场源分布状态.我们提出了一种数据空间磁异常模量反演算法来减少剩磁的影响.与标准的模型空间L2范数正则化反演方法相比,我们的方法有两个优点:一是无需搜索正则化参数(需要反复求解非线性反演问题),因而可以减少计算时间;二是反演结果更加聚焦,深度分辨率更高,我们对此进行了原因分析.通过模型和实测数据测试证明了该算法的有效性和更好的反演效果.     

部分区域约束下的交叉梯度多重地球物理数据联合反演

交叉梯度联合反演方法通过对多种地球物理模型实现结构耦合,在岩石物性关系不确定的情况下,既能提高反演结果的可靠性,又能减少反演的多解性,还能减少不同方法解释结果之间的矛盾.当不同的模型观测数据覆盖范围不一致时,交叉梯度联合反演通常需要取出重叠区域数据进行联合反演,并且建模时还要扩展一些模型范围.本文首先提出并实现了部分区域约束下的交叉梯度多重地球物理数据联合反演算法;接着进行了算法的模型试算;最后,我们将该反演算法用于本溪—集安深部地质调查重磁电综合地质地球物理解释中.结果表明:该算法不但能在重叠区域内很好地恢复结构相似的模型,而且在非重叠区域与重叠区域的边界处仍然可以得到平滑变化的模型;在本溪—集安10号剖面所获得的结构上相似的电阻率、密度及磁化率模型较好地反映了该区的深部地质结构,对于确定深部地质体的性质提供了有力的证据.
