沉积岩物源分析对揭示盆地砂体展布、物质组成、储集层性质及砂岩型铀矿床铀源等科学问题具有重要的意义。对取自鄂尔多斯盆地东北部8个钻井中的中侏罗统直罗组砂岩进行了详细的岩石学和地球化学研究,试图鉴别岩石的源区和形成的构造环境。研究表明,砂岩以中粗粒杂砂岩为主,其w(SiO₂)值及w(Al₂O₃)/w(SiO₂)值中等到较高,w(K₂O)值相对较高,Fe₂O₃、MgO、TiO₂含量较低,暗示碎屑物质的富长英质、贫镁铁质特征。Nb、Ta、Ti、P等不活动元素的强烈亏损和K、Rb、Sr、Ba等LILE的富集,共同指示源区具有明显的俯冲带的特征;而w(TFe₂O₃+MgO)-w(TiO₂)、w(TFe₂O₃+MgO)-w(Al₂O₃)/w(SiO₂)、w(Th)-w(Sc)-w(Zr)/10、w(Th)-w(Co)-w(Zr)/10等判别特征则表明砂岩源区岩石可能形成于大陆弧-活动大陆边缘环境。而且,在球粒陨石标准化分配模式中,LREE强烈富集,HREE无明显分异、有着较平坦的曲线,Eu无异常或表现为弱的正、负异常;在PAAS标准化曲线中,轻重稀土均无明显分异,仅Eu表现为明显正异常。本区直罗组砂岩与华北北缘显生宙闪长岩-花岗闪长岩有着很强的亲缘性。     

松辽盆地钱家店铀矿床层间氧化带地球化学特征*

钱家店砂岩型铀矿床是松辽盆地发现的特大型铀矿床,目前已发现的铀矿主要赋存在上白垩统姚家组下段,矿体呈板状、透镜状,主要受层间氧化带控制。通过对钱家店砂岩型铀矿层间氧化带各带(氧化带、过渡带及还原带)的主量元素、微量元素、稀土元素进行测试分析,结果表明各带地球化学特征存在较大的差异,其中依据Fe₂O₃、FeO、Al₂O₃、SiO₂、Na₂O及K₂O可对层间氧化带进行较准确的分带,MgO、CaO具有一定的分带指示意义。从氧化带到过渡带,趋于富集的微量元素主要为放射性元素(U)、大离子亲石元素(Li、Ba)、亲硫元素(Ni)、高场强元素(Nb、Ta)和性质活跃的变价元素(Mo)等,且 LREE、MREE和HREE均有不同程度富集,反映了水—岩作用时间较长、强度较大。有机碳、S_全、ωFe³⁺/ωFe²⁺还原性指标在不同分带的显著差异表明,随着含氧含铀水在姚家组地层中迁移,还原性组分变化强烈,具有明显的分带指示意义。

酒东盆地红山地区下白垩统新民堡群灰白色蚀变带特征及其与铀成矿的关系

研究区位于酒东盆地东北缘红山地区。通过对下白垩统新民堡群后生氧化改造作用的研究,认为灰白色弱氧化、强水解蚀变带是层间氧化带的一部分。铁和有机质是沉积岩中常见的色素,当含氧水进入目的层砂体时,砂体中的有机质、低价铁(Fe2+)等化合物被氧化,导致岩石褪色;同时氧化作用导致砂岩中长石水解,形成以高岭石为主的白色黏土矿物,使岩石增白。增白与褪色的双重作用是砂岩总体上变白的重要原因,其所形成的灰白色蚀变岩位于强氧化的紫红色-黄色蚀变亚带与灰色原生岩石带之间的一定范围内。铀矿化(体)产在弱氧化、强水解灰白色砂岩与原生灰色砂岩界面附近偏灰色岩石一侧[1-2]。灰白色蚀变带与铀成矿关系密切,可作为区域性白垩系砂岩型铀矿的找矿标志之一。

银额盆地赛尔亥那地区铀矿化特征及成因研究

银额盆地赛尔亥那地区发现的地表铀矿化带,前期认为是层间氧化铀成矿作用形成的砂岩型铀矿化,本次研究发现,赋矿岩石类型为含铀白云质磷质岩及含铀磷质粉砂岩。矿石中赋存大量的微晶磷灰石,呈微晶(粒径<1μm)集合体形式。全岩主微量分析显示U与P₂O₅、Ca O呈较好的正相关,磷灰石微区原位(LA-ICP-MS)主微量分析结果显示U与P₂O₅、Ca O、∑REE等均呈较好的正相关,高倍扫描电镜下未发现铀矿物,认为铀是以类质同象形式赋存在磷灰石中。铀矿石岩性岩相特征、磷灰石微区原位微量元素组合特征及共伴生矿物成因等表明,富铀磷灰石是在沉积成岩过程中,微生物参与作用下形成的。因此,赛尔亥那地区铀矿找矿思路应兼顾潜水-层间氧化型及沉积成岩型。

Geology and geochemistry of fault-hosted hydrothermal and sedimentary manganese deposits in the Oakover Basin,east Pilbara,Western Australia

Manganese mineralisation in the Oakover Basin is associated with Mesoproterozoic extension, basin formation and deposition of the Manganese Group. The underlying basement architecture of the Oakover Basin (a local half-graben geometry), inherited from the Neoarchean rifting event, plays an important role on the distribution, style and timing of manganese deposits. Fault-hosted manganese deposits are dominant along the ‘active’ faulted eastern margin, whereas flat-lying sedimentary deposits are dominant along the western ‘passive’ margin reflecting differences in ore-forming processes. The large number of significant manganese deposits in the Oakover Basin, previously thought to reflect a spatial association with Carawine Dolomite, more likely reflects the restricted nature of the Mesoproterozoic basin and development of a large reservoir of Mn²⁺ and Fe²⁺ in an anoxic zone of a stratified basin. Low O₂ conditions in the basin were caused by a paleotopographic high forming a barrier to open ocean circulation. The western margin sedimentary deposits formed later than the fault-hosted hydrothermal deposits along the eastern margin, once a significant reservoir of Mn²⁺ and Fe²⁺ had developed, and when there was sufficient subsidence to allow migration of the redox front onto the shallow shelf, with Mn precipitation on and within the seafloor sediments. The sedimentary manganese deposits are not uniformly distributed along the western edge of the basin; instead they are concentrated into discrete areas (e.g. Mt Cooke–Utah–Mt Rove, Bee Hill, Skull Springs and the Ripon Hills districts), suggesting a degree of structural control on their distribution. Fault-hosted manganese is observed beneath and adjacent to many of the sedimentary deposits. Marked geochemical differences are observed between the Woodie Woodie hydrothermal deposits and the sedimentary deposits. Woodie Woodie deposits display higher Ba, U, Mo, As, Sn, Bi, Pb, S and Cu than the sedimentary deposits, reflecting the composition of the hydrothermal fluids. The Al₂O₃ values of the Ripon Hills and Mt Cooke deposits are much higher than the Woodie Woodie deposits, reflecting the composition of the dominant host rock, as Al₂O₃ is typically <5 wt% in the Carawine Dolomite, but is >10 wt% in basal shale units of the Manganese Group. Highly variable Mn:Fe ratios (?5:1) in the hydrothermal manganese at Woodie Woodie reflects rapid deposition of Mn in and around fault zones. In contrast, slower accumulation of Mn oxides on and within the seafloor to form the large sedimentary deposits results in Mn:Fe ratios closer to 1:1 and elevated Co + Ni and REE values.     

Morphometric data on topotype assemblage of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Miogypsina (Lepidosemicyclina) droogeri</Emphasis>, foraminifera from Kachchh,Gujarat

For the first time we report alluaudite from India, which is metamict and is hosted in a zoned pegmatite, near Pisangan, Ajmer district, Rajasthan. Alluaudites known till date, all over the world, are non-metamict type. Therefore, the alluaudite reported from the area is the first locality in the world for the metamict-type of alluaudite. The most conspicuous features exhibited by the alluaudite are various types of cracks in different directions and shapes, including its isotropic nature. The calculated crystallographic parameters of the reported alluaudite are: a₀ = 11.9874 Å, b₀ = 12.5144 Å, and c₀ = 6.4136 Å, β = 114.240 with unit-cell volume (V) = 877.31 ų, which are in agreement with the values of alluaudite standard. Geochemical data indicates high content of P (32.30% P₂O₅), Fe (30.2% Fe₂O₃), Mn (10.62% MnO), besides Mg (7.71% MgO), Ca (5.60% CaO), Na (3.40% Na₂O) and Si (2.30% SiO₂), and appreciable amount of water of hydration (3.50% LOI). It is highly radioactive due to uranium (2.28% U₃O₈) and thorium (185 ppm Th). Calculated structural formula of the alluaudite is Na¹⁺_0.59Ca²⁺_0.54Mn²⁺_0.80Mg²⁺_1.02Fe³⁺_2.03Al³⁺_0.037U⁴⁺_0.043P⁵⁺_2.45O₁₂. The chondrite-normalised plot shows enrichment of HREE relative to LREE with pronounced negative Eu-anomaly (Eu/Eu* = 0.46). Such a high negative Eu-anomaly suggests extremely fractionated nature of the host pegmatite.     

Petrogenetic implications of ophiolitic chromite from Rutland Island, Andaman—a boninitic parentage in supra-subduction setting

Chromites occurring in different modes have been characterized from ophiolites of Rutland Island, a part of Burma-Andaman-Java subduction complex in the Bay of Bengal. Chromite mainly occurs as massive chromitite pods in mantle ultramafic tectonite and as thin massive chromitite bands together with minor disseminations in crustal ultramafic cumulate. Other than pods chromite also appears as: (a) anhedral restitic grains, (b) strings occurring as exsolved phases and as (c) symplectitic intergrowth with orthopyroxene in mantle tectonite. The chromites occurring as massive chromitite pods and bands contain high Cr (Cr#—73 to 80). Restitic chromite grains in mantle ultramafics are high-Mg (Mg#—58), high-Al (Al₂O₃—34 wt.%) and intermediate-Cr (Cr#—37) chromites. The bivariant plots of TiO₂ wt.% vs 100Cr#, Mg# vs Cr# and Cr-Al-Fe³⁺ ternary discrimination diagram show that the massive and disseminated chromites fall in the boninitic field. The (Al₂O₃)_melt and (FeO/MgO)_melt values for the massive chromitites are estimated as 10 wt.% to 11 wt.% and 0.67–1.78 respectively, corroborating a boninitic parentage. Massive chromitite on Fe²⁺/Fe³⁺ vs Al₂O₃ wt.% and TiO₂ wt.% vs Al₂O₃ wt.% plots occupy mainly the field of supra-subduction zone peridotites. High-Mg olivine (Fo_91?93), high-Mg orthopyroxene (En_～90) and high-Cr chromites of Rutland ophiolite are all supportive of boninitic source at supra-subduction zone setting. ⁵⁷Fe Mössbauer study of chromite of beach placer shows that chromites occur in partly inverse spinel structure with iron distribution as Fe³⁺(A)Fe²⁺(A)Fe²⁺(B) which might be a result of oxidation. The olivine-spinel geothermometry shows 650–700°C re-equilibration temperature which is much lower than near crystallization temperature (950–1,050°C) derived from orthopyroxene-clinopyroxene assemblage. At supra-subduction setting an oxidizing hydrous fluid derived from subducting slab might have a major influence during the formation of Rutland ophiolite in this part of Burma-Java subduction complex.

Iron speciation in modern sediment from Erhai Lake,southwestern ChinaRedox conditions in an ancient environment

In a core of sub-aquatic sediment from Erhai Lake, southwestern China, 4 Fe species were identified as paramagnetic Fe³⁺, superparamagnetic Fe³⁺, hematite Fe³⁺, and paramagnetic high-spin Fe²⁺ using Mössbauer spectroscopy. The 120 cm core has a distinct lithological boundary at a depth of about 70 cm. Each Fe species has a distinctive distribution with depth. These results represent the redox conditions within the sediment, and also probably reflect the primary sedimentary environments. With increasing burial depth, hematite (Fe₂O₃) decreased, especially below depths greater than 25 cm, and finally disappeared at around 95 cm. The summed paramagnetic Fe³⁺ (superparamagnetic Fe³⁺+paramagnetic Fe³⁺) did not change as much, only exhibiting a slight decrease at depths greater than 75 cm, about 5 cm beneath the lithological boundary within the core. The intensity of paramagnetic high-spin Fe²⁺ increased with depth. These vertical variations were in harmony with organic geochemical parameters such as TOC concentration, H-index and O-index, indicating that reducing conditions are strongly intensified in the sediment below 70 cm. The geological, organic geochemical and ¹⁴C data combined with the present Mössbauer spectroscopic study give a strong indication that the redox environment of Erhai Lake probably shifted rather rapidly from a deep reducing to a shallow oxic state at about 2 ka ago.
