~(40)Ar/~(39)Ar定年矿物绢云母的提纯研究

绢云母的~(40)Ar/~(39)Ar年龄是研究矿床形成年龄的重要手段,但是~(40)Ar/~(39)Ar定年矿物绢云母的提纯一直是一个难题。现有分离提纯方法得到的绢云母集合体中通常含有微斜长石,如本研究中常规磁选-重液法得到的微斜长石含量在0～28%,常规悬浮液法得到的微斜长石含量在3%～45%。当绢云母集合体中的微斜长石含量超过10%时,会直接影响测年的准确性。为探索一种有效的绢云母提纯方法,本文首先考察了常规磁选-重液法和常规悬浮液法的提纯效果,实验结果表明两种方法得到的绢云母纯度均不高,而且常规悬浮液法的粒度有时很细,不能满足定年要求。进而采用超声波解离-悬浮液法对磁选-重液法得到的含微斜长石的绢云母集合体进行了条件实验,绢云母的纯度从28%提高到77%,微斜长石相对于绢云母的含量从12.5%降为0。绢云母的粒度大于1μm的占比在95%以上,最小粒度大于0.356μm,大于~(39)Ar核反冲丢失的理论估算值0.08μm,该粒度下的绢云母在接受中子照射过程中不会引起明显的核反冲丢失,对中高温阶段的~(40)Ar/~(39)Ar年龄影响不大。研究认为,对于采用磁选-重液法得到的绢云母集合体,当其中的微斜长石含量大于10%时,可以采用超声波解离-悬浮液法进一步富集绢云母,降低微斜长石的含量,保证测年的准确性。     

堆石料颗粒破碎特征的大型三轴试验研究

针对多个堆石料进行的大型三轴剪切试验,研究了颗粒破碎情况。结果表明,在试样制备过程所发生的颗粒破碎不可忽视。为了在固结开始前保持初始设计的级配,应将设计级配相应下调一定数值来制备试样。分析试验数据表明,大颗粒主要发生的是表面破碎,而整个试验过程中在剪切完成后的颗粒破碎率与围压之间呈线性增加关系,且风干样的颗粒破碎率小于饱和样的破碎率。

龙感湖稀土元素的地球化学特征

采用液-液萃取法,连续提取法和ICP-MS测试技术,对龙感湖不同季节水和颗粒物中稀土元素进行研究.结果表明,龙感湖的溶解态稀土含量极低,稀土总含量(ΣREE)在3.14～129.81ng/kg之间,且季节性变化明显.龙感湖溶解态稀土元素表现出平坦型的页岩配分模式,这是由于在草型湖泊中溶解态稀土主要以吸附在微细胶体上的形式存在,水粒相互作用在这个过程中起主要控制作用.悬浮物中的稀土含量顺序为:残渣态>>Fe-Mn结合态>>有机态和AEC态,颗粒物中稀土元素主要以残渣态形式存在.Fe-Mn结合态、有机态和AEC态的页岩配分模式为中稀土富集,残渣态的页岩配分模式为平坦型.这说明中稀土与轻重稀土相比具有更强的潜在地球化学活性,但在龙感湖的环境中的迁移能力相对轻重稀土来说较弱.

Influence of stacking faults on the spiral growth of polytype structures in mica

A systematic theoretical deduction of polytype structures of mica that can result by the spiral growth mechanism operating in faulted 1M, 2M ₁ and 3T basic matrices is reported. As a prerequisite, all possible intrinsic and extrinsic stacking fault configurations in each of the basic matrices have been worked out and their stacking fault energy (SFE) estimated. The deduction of polytype structures on the basis of the “faulted-matrix model” takes into account (i) the introduction of each of the low energy fault configurations in the exposed ledge of the screw dislocations, (ii) the change in the layer-position of the fault within the exposed ledge and (iii) the variation of the strength of the generating screw dislocation. At each stage, the spirally-grown polytypes are deduced for each basic structure. The most probable structures are predicted on the basis of the lowest SFE for the same strength of the screw dislocation and are then compared with the polytype structures reported in the literature. It was found that the faulted matrix model accounts successfully for the origin of all the polytype structures in mica. Furthermore, it may provide a basis for limiting the number of trial structures for determining the structures of long period polytypes.     

Distribution and occurrence of some naturally‐occurring polytypes of molybdenite in Australia and Papua New Guinea

156 samples of naturally‐occurring molybdenite from 87 localities in Australia have been examined to determine the distribution of the hexagonal (2H₁) and rhombohedral (3R) polytypes. 90% of the specimens examined are 2H₁ polytypes, the remainder being 3R and mixtures of 2H₁ and 3R polytypes. The 3R and mixed polytypes are more abundant in porphyry copper deposits or as disseminations, in veins, and in garnet‐quartz pipes in granite. 2H₁ polytypes are the sole modification observed in pegmatites, quart‐pegmatite pipes, simple quartz veins, and skarns.

The highest average concentrations of rhenium are in molybdenite from porphyry copper deposits, quartz porphyry pipes, skarn deposits, garnet‐quartz pipes, and pegmatites. Low concentrations occur in molybdenite which is disseminated or in quartz veins in granite and in quartz or pegmatitic pipes. Molybdenites in which the 2H₁ polytype is dominant have a lower average rhenium content than those with dominant 3R polytype.     

Characterization of NH4-phlogopite (NH4) (Mg3) [AlSi3O10] (OH)2 and ND4-phlogopite (ND4) (Mg3) [AlSi3O10] (OD)2 using IR spectroscopy and Rietveld refinement of XRD spectra

 A synthesis technique is described which results in >99% pure NH₄-phlogopite (NH₄) (Mg₃) [AlSi₃O₁₀] (OH)₂ and its deuterium analogue ND₄-phlogopite (ND₄) (Mg₃) [AlSi₃O₁₀] (OD)₂. Both phases are characterised using both IR spectroscopy at 298 and 77 K as well as Rietveld refinement of their X-ray powder diffraction pattern. Both NH₄ ⁺ and ND₄ ⁺ are found to occupy the interlayer site in the phlogopite structure. Absorption bands in the IR caused by either NH₄ ⁺ or ND₄ ⁺ can be explained to a good approximation using T_d symmetry as a basis. Rietveld refinement indicates that either phlogopite synthesis contains several mica polytypes. The principle polytype is the one-layer monoclinic polytype (1M), which possesses the space group symmetry C2/m. The next most common polytype is the two-layer polytype (2M ₁ ) with space group symmetry C2/c. Minor amounts of the trigonal polytype 3T with the space group symmetry P3₁12 were found only in the synthesis run for the ND₄-phlogopite. Electron microprobe analyses indicate that NH₄-phlogopite deviates from the ideal phlogopite composition with respect to variable Si/Al and Mg/Al on both the tetrahedral and octahedral sites, respectively, due to the Tschermaks substitution ^VIMg²⁺+^IVSi⁴⁺↔^VIAl³⁺+^IVAl³⁺ and with respect to vacancies on the interlayer site due to the exchange vector ^XII(NH₄)⁺+^IVAl³⁺↔^XII□+^IVSi⁴⁺.

Diagenetic and very low-grade metamorphic characteristics of the Paleozoic series of the Istanbul Terrane (NW Turkey)

The Istanbul Terrane along the Black Sea coast in NW Anatolia, is a Gondwana-derived continental microplate, comprising a well-developed Paleozoic succession. Petrographic and X-ray diffraction studies were performed on rock samples from measured sections throughout Ordovician?CCarboniferous sedimentary units. Diagenetic-very low-grade metamorphic clastic (shale/mudstone, siltstone, sandstone) and calcareous rocks (limestone, dolomite) mainly contain phyllosilicates, quartz, feldspar, calcite, dolomite, hematite and goethite minerals. Phyllosilicates are primarily represented by illite, chlorite, mixed-layered chlorite?Cvermiculite (C?CV), chlorite?Csmectite (C?CS) and illite?Cchlorite (I?CC). Feldspar is commonly present in the Ordovician and Carboniferous units, whereas calcite and dolomite are abundant in the Silurian and Devonian sediments. The most important phyllosilicate assemblage is illite?+?chlorite?+?I?CC?+?C?CV?+?C?CS. Illite and chlorite-bearing mixed layer clays are found in all units. The amounts of illites increase in the upper parts of the Silurian series and the lower parts of the Devonian series, whereas chlorite and chlorite-bearing mixed-layers are dominant in the Ordovician and Carboniferous units. Kübler index values of illites reflect high-grade anchimetamorphism for the Early Ordovician rocks, low-grade metamorphism to high-grade diagenesis for the Middle Ordovician?CEarly Silurian rocks and high-grade diagenesis for the Late Silurian?CDevonian units. The K-white micas b cell dimensions indicate intermediate pressure conditions in the Early Ordovician?CEarly Silurian units, but lower pressure conditions in the Middle Silurian?CDevonian units. Illites are composed of 2M ₁?±?1M _d polytypes in all units, except for Upper Ordovician?CLower Silurian units which involve 1M polytype in addition to 2M ₁ and 1M _d polytypes. The 2M ₁/(2M ₁?+?1Md) ratios rise from Devonian to Ordovician together with the increasing diagenetic-metamorphic grade. Chlorites have IIb polytype. In general, crystal-chemical data of clay minerals in the Istanbul Terrane show a gradual increase in the diagenetic/metamorphic grade together with increasing depth. The new data presented in this work indicate that the diagenetic/metamorphic grade of the Paleozoic of the Istanbul Terrane is higher than that of the neighboring Zonguldak Terrane and generated by a single metamorphic phase developed at the end of Carboniferous. This finding contrasts with the metamorphic history of the neighboring Zonguldak Terrane that displays a distinct Early Devonian unconformity and a thermal event.     

Magnetic fabric variations in Mesozoic black shales, Northern Siberia, Russia: Possible paleomagnetic implications

A 28-m-long section situated on the coast of the Arctic Ocean, Russia (74°N, 113°E) was extensively sampled primarily for the purpose of magnetostratigraphic investigations across the Jurassic/Cretaceous boundary. The section consists predominantly of marine black shales with abundant siderite concretions and several distinct siderite cemented layers. Low-field magnetic susceptibility (k) ranges from 8 × 10^− 5 to 2 × 10^− 3 SI and is predominantly controlled by the paramagnetic minerals, i.e. iron-bearing chlorites, micas, and siderite. The siderite-bearing samples possess the highest magnetic susceptibility, usually one order of magnitude higher than the neighboring rock. The intensity of the natural remanent magnetization (M₀) varies between 1 × 10^− 5 and 6 × 10^− 3 A/m. Several samples possessing extremely high values of M₀ were found. There is no apparent correlation between the high k and high M₀ values; on the contrary, the samples with relatively high M₀ values possess average magnetic susceptibility and vice versa. According to the low-field anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility (AMS), three different groups of samples can be distinguished. In the siderite-bearing samples (i), an inverse magnetic fabric is observed, i.e., the maximum and minimum principal susceptibility directions are interchanged and the magnetic fabric has a distinctly prolate shape. Triaxial-fabric samples (ii), showing an intermediate magnetic fabric, are always characterized by high M₀ values. It seems probable that the magnetic fabric is controlled by the preferred orientation of paramagnetic phyllosilicates, e.g., chlorite and mica, and by some ferromagnetic mineral with anomalous orientation in relation to the bedding plane. Oblate-fabric samples (iii) are characterized by a bedding-controlled magnetic fabric, and by moderate magnetic susceptibility and M₀ values. The magnetic fabric is controlled by the preferred orientation of phyllosilicate minerals and, to a minor extent, by a ferrimagnetic fraction, most probably detrital magnetite. Considering the magnetic fabric together with paleomagnetic component analyses, the siderite-bearing, and the high-NRM samples (about 15% of samples) were excluded from further magnetostratigraphic research.     

Wollastonite polytypes in the CaO-SiO2 system.

This work deals with the identification and kinetics of crystallisation of the wollastonite polytypes which form in the system CaO-SiO₂ in the temperature range 700–1000 °C. The kinetics of phase transformations in the system have been determined from analysis of in situ synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction data. Two different systems with the same compositions were investigated: one is more reactive, having grains with a larger surface area per unit volume, the other is less reactive, being composed of grains with a smaller surface area per unit volume. 1T-wollastonite forms first and progressively transforms in an intermediate 1Td-wollastonite disordered form. Both phases in turn transform into 2M-wollastonite polytype. Differences in the polytypes forming and reaction kinetics were observed for the two systems. In the more reactive system, the conversion 1T to 1Td polytypes is the dominant process. The kinetic parameters calculated using the Avrami models fully describe the reaction process of formation of both polytypes and transformation of one polytype into the other.

TEM imaging of polytypism in pseudowollastonite

A study of polytypism in synthetic polycrystalline pseudowollastonite has been made using conventional and high resolution transmission electron microscopy (TEM and HRTEM). Three polytypes of 2, 4 and 6-layers coexist in the one sample in the form of lamellae parallel to (001). From the electron microscopy images the lamellae are interpreted as combinations of the stacking fault vectors: 1/3 [010], 1/6 [310] and 1/6 [3 $\bar 1$ 0], which are probably all equivalent at high temperatures. The polytype lamellae are stable even after prolonged annealing at high temperatures greater than 1700K. These observations suggest that the most frequently reported 4-layer polytype is not the only high-temperature stable polytype. No evidence of melt is detected in samples annealed in the regime where premelting behaviour of pseudowollastonite has previously been reported (above 1600 K).     

The effect of composition,temperature and pressure on the stability of the 1Tc and 2M polytypes of sapphirine

Microprobe analyses and structural characterisation by means of transmission electron microscopy and powder X-ray diffraction are presented for a suite of natural and synthetic sapphirines. Most sapphirines appear to consist of intergrowths of the common 2M polytype with minor amounts of the 1Tc phase, although the converse situation is found in some cases. Attempts to correlate the structural state of the mineral with other factors reveal that: (i) There is no strong relationship between mean tetrahedral cation radius or mean octahedral cation radius and the preferred polytype. The Tschermak substitution M²⁺M⁴⁺-M³⁺M³⁺ does not appreciably influence the 1Tc-2M equilibrium, (ii) However, the total content and mean oxidation state of iron in sapphirine are important in this respect. Fe²⁺ stabilises the 2M phase, whereas Fe³⁺ stabilises the 1Tc phase. (iii) P-T estimates for the host rocks, and estimates for the conditions of sapphirine crystallisation, where obtainable, suggest that the 1Tc phase is stable at lower T and higher P than the 2M phase. Some quantitative constraints are inferred.     

Chemical and structural study of 1M- and 2M 1-phlogopites coexisting in the same Kasenyi kamafugitic rock (SW Uganda)

In the present work, crystal chemical variations between 1M and 2M ₁ phlogopites coexisting in the same rock sample from kamafugite of Kasenyi (southwest Uganda, west branch of the East African Rift) were explored by electron probe microanalyses, single crystal X-ray diffraction and M?ssbauer spectroscopy. Chemical analyses revealed close similarity both within and between the two polytypic arrangements as well as high TiO₂ (~4.9?wt%) and Al₂O₃ (~12.9?wt%), and low Cr₂O₃ (~0.8?wt%), F (~0.3?wt%) and BaO (~0.2?wt%) contents. Room temperature ⁵⁷Fe M?ssbauer investigation proved that the studied mica is a tetraferriphlogopite with: ^IVFe³⁺?=?19(1)?%, ^VIFe²⁺?=?58(1)?%, ^VIFe³⁺?=?23(1)?%. Single crystal refinement showed that both polytypes have narrow range of variation in terms of some relevant unit cell parameters and similar values in terms of mean bond lengths, mean atomic numbers and distortion parameters. Similar substitutions were active in the structure of the 1M and 2M ₁ studied phlogopites. However, in 2M ₁ polytypes the oxy-type substitutions were found to occur to a greater extent. Comparison of unit layer of 1M mica (in the 2M ₁ setting) with that of the 2M ₁ ones showed that the 2M ₁ polytypes are affected to different extent by relative shifts of the upper and lower triads of octahedral oxygens along the ±b directions. This effect did not cause any symmetry lowering in the T-O-T layer of the studied samples.     

Polytype distribution of circumstellar silicon carbide: microstructural characterization by transmission electron microscopy

Silicon carbide (SiC) is a particularly interesting species of presolar grain because it is known to form on the order of a hundred different polytypes in the laboratory, and the formation of a particular polytype is sensitive to growth conditions. Astronomical evidence for the formation of SiC in expanding circumstellar atmospheres of asymptotic giant branch (AGB) carbon stars is provided by infrared (IR) studies. However, identification of the crystallographic structure of SiC from IR spectra is controversial. Since >95% of the presolar SiC isolated from meteorites formed around carbon stars, a determination of the structure of presolar SiC is, to first order, a direct determination of the structure of circumstellar SiC. We therefore determined the polytype distribution of presolar SiC from the Murchison CM2 carbonaceous meteorite using analytical and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (TEM). High-resolution lattice images and electron diffraction of 508 individual SiC grains demonstrate that only two polytypes are present, the cubic 3C (β-SiC) polytype (79.4% of population by number) and the hexagonal 2H (α-SiC) polytype (2.7%). Intergrowths of these two polytypes are relatively abundant (17.1%). No other polytypes were found. A small population of one-dimensionally disordered SiC grains (0.9%), whose high density of stacking faults precluded classification as any polytype, was also observed. The presolar origin of 2H α-SiC is unambiguously established by tens-of-nanometers-resolution secondary ion mass spectroscopy (NanoSIMS). Isotopic maps of a TEM-characterized 2H α-SiC grain exhibit non-solar isotopic compositions of ¹²C/¹³C = 64 ± 4 and ¹⁴N/¹⁵N = 575 ± 24. These measurements are consistent with mainstream presolar SiC thought to originate in the expanding atmospheres of AGB carbon stars. Equilibrium condensation calculations together with inferred mineral condensation sequences predict relatively low SiC condensation temperatures in carbon stars. The laboratory observed condensation temperatures of 2H and 3C SiC are generally the lowest of all SiC polytypes and fall within the predictions of the equilibrium calculations. These points account for the occurrence of only 2H and 3C polytypes of SiC in circumstellar outflows. The 2H and 3C SiC polytypes presumably condense at different radii (i.e., temperatures) in the expanding stellar atmospheres of AGB carbon stars.
