矿田构造变形岩相分类与应用效果

矿田相当于Ⅴ级成矿区带的地质找矿勘查对象,需要研究"构造与建造共生"的地质现象,建立相应的概念和野外观测方法,有别于"沉积构造岩相"、"岩浆岩相"、"变质岩相"、"大地构造相"、"构造岩相"、"构造相"等理论观点。在长期矿田构造和深部外围找矿实践基础上,研究提出"构造变形岩相"的地质概念。构造变形岩相被理解为"显示构造变形的那部分岩相",是喻示受构造影响的那部分(沉积、岩浆和变质地质作用的)岩相,是包含构造变形及建造特征的地质实体,或构造建造形迹。构造变形岩相,是岩石形变和相变密切共生的地质体,既能反映成岩地质环境又包含成岩物理化学条件,是一种适用于开展"构造结合建造"观测和分析的构造岩石单元。依据地质作用类型,划分了4种矿田构造变形岩相：沉积构造变形岩相、岩浆构造变形岩相、变质构造变形岩相和复成构造变形岩相。根据地质亚相,划分了矿田尺度的27类构造变形岩相。建立矿田构造变形岩相的观测和分析方法,不仅推动了构造结合建造的地质调查和研究,而且为矿田构造向矿田地质学的发展奠定了基础。构造变形岩相研究,用1：1000~1：50000不同精度,可以调查几十至几百平方千米范围的地质找矿问题,直接服务于已知矿床的深部外围找矿。地表结合中段大比例尺填图,三维刻画矿化岩相带的分布特征,成为圈定靶区的最佳途径。在"就矿找矿"的基础上,探讨了中距离找矿的预测方向——构造变形岩相界面成矿带。     

Carbon,oxygen and sulphur isotope variations in concretions from the Upper Lias of N.E. England

Carbon, oxygen and sulphur isotope data for transects across two pyrite-bearmg carbonate concretions, and their host sediments, from the Upper Lias of N.E. England show symmetrical zonation. δ¹³C_PDB values of the calcite cement (?12.9 to ?15.4%.) indicate that most of it originated from organic matter by bacterial reduction of sulphate, augmented with marine and, to a lesser extent, fermentation derived carbonate. Organic carbon (δ¹³C_PDB = ?26.1 to ?37.0%.). reflects the admixture of allochtho-nous terrestrial organic matter with marine material and the selective preservation of isotopically light organic material through microbiological degradation.Two phases of pyrite are present in each concretion. The earlier framboidal pyrite formed throughout the sediment prior to concretionary growth and has δ³⁴S_CD values of ?22 to ?26%. indicating formation by open system sulphate reduction. The later euhedral phase is more abundant and reaches values of ? 2.5 to ? 5.5%. at concretion margins. This phase of sulphate reduction provided the carbonate source for concretionary growth and occurred in a partially closed system. The δ¹³C and δ³⁴S data are consistent with mineralogical and chemical evidence which suggest that both concretions formed close to the sediment surface. The δ₁₈O values of the calcite in one concretion (δ¹⁸O_PDB = 2.3 to ?4.8%.) indicate precipitation in pore waters whose temperature and isotopic composition was close to that of overlying seawater. The other concretion is isotopically much lighter (δ¹⁸O_PDB?8.9 to ?9.9%.) and large δ¹⁸O differences between concretions in closely-spaced horizons imply that local factors control the isotopic composition of pore waters.     

南海北部深水西区中中新世混合沉积模式及控制因素

以新采集的地震资料为基础,对南海北部深水西区的混合沉积作了初步研究。混合沉积在地震剖面上表现为平行—亚平行,振幅强—中,频率中等及连续性中等的反射特征。混合沉积分布在研究区地震资料覆盖范围的西北角,发育规模较大,最大长度达44.7km,最大宽度33.2km,面积1084km2,最大厚度为138m,纵向上分布在中中新统梅山组。综合南海北部构造演化、地震勘探等研究成果,建立了混合沉积模式。该混合沉积分布于半深海沉积区,由其南东东方向的西沙—广乐台地提供碳酸盐岩碎屑(同时也提供部分硅质碎屑),由其西侧的中南半岛提供主要的硅质碎屑。在南海北部深水西区,控制混合沉积分布的主要因素为构造作用(包括海平面变化)、物源供给及水动力条件等三个方面,这三者之间又具有密切的内在联系。

Additional Analytical Data for Gabbro, GOG-1

Additional data for gabbro, GOG-1, were determined by instrumental-neutron-activation analysis, atomic-absorption spectrometry, and semi-quantitative spectrographic analysis. F ratios calculated in the analysis of variance for 26 sets of data for elements determined by the three methods were not significant, and hence the elements are distributed homogeneously among the bottles. The agreement between our data and the averages previously published ranges from very good to poor. More analytical data are necessary to establish reliable estimates of the concentrations of elements in GOG-1 and in two other gabbros so that three gabbros may be available to geochemists for use as standards.     

Grain‐scale pressure variations and chemical equilibrium in high‐grade metamorphic rocks

In the classical view of metamorphic microstructures, fast viscous relaxation (and so constant pressure) is assumed, with diffusion being the limiting factor in equilibration. This contribution is focused on the only other possible scenario – fast diffusion and slow viscous relaxation – and brings an alternative interpretation of microstructures typical of high‐grade metamorphic rocks. In contrast to the pressure vessel mechanical model applied to pressure variation associated with coesite inclusions in various host minerals, a multi‐anvil mechanical model is proposed in which strong single crystals and weak grain boundaries can maintain pressure variation at geological time‐scales in a polycrystalline material. In such a mechanical context, exsolution lamellae in feldspar are used to show that feldspar can sustain large differential stresses (>10 kbar) at geological time‐scales. Furthermore, it is argued that the existence of grain‐scale pressure gradients combined with diffusional equilibrium may explain chemical zoning preserved in reaction rims. Assuming zero net flux across the microstructure, an equilibrium thermodynamic method is introduced for inferring pressure variation corresponding to the chemical zoning. This new barometric method is applied to plagioclase rims around kyanite in felsic granulite (Bohemian Massif, Czech Republic), yielding a grain‐scale pressure variation of 8 kbar. In this approach, kinetic factors are not invoked to account for mineral composition zoning preserved in rocks metamorphosed at high grade.     

顾及三维方向的GNSS坐标时间序列粗差探测方法

针对GNSS坐标时间序列中粗差为三维位置粗差的特点,提出综合三维坐标的迭代最小二乘粗差探测方法。通过实验模拟数据,分别利用3倍中误差（3σ）准则和四分位距（interquartile range, IQR）准则对单方向和综合N、E、U三方向的粗差进行探测。结果表明,2种判别准则中,综合考虑3个方向的探测效果远好于单方向的探测效果,且探测效率均超过95%;3σ准则的探测效率稍高于IQR准则,但误判率也较高。在实测数据中的应用表明,SOPAC(Scrips Orbit and Permanent Array Center)提供的部分raw类型全球IGS站时间序列中粗差占0.1%~4.7%;运用IQR准则综合3个方向的粗差探测得到的时间序列要比cleaned trend类型更加干净。     

Distribution and interplay of geologic processes on Titan from Cassini radar data

The Cassini Titan Radar Mapper is providing an unprecedented view of Titan’s surface geology. Here we use Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) image swaths (Ta-T30) obtained from October 2004 to December 2007 to infer the geologic processes that have shaped Titan’s surface. These SAR swaths cover about 20% of the surface, at a spatial resolution ranging from ∼350 m to ∼2 km. The SAR data are distributed over a wide latitudinal and longitudinal range, enabling some conclusions to be drawn about the global distribution of processes. They reveal a geologically complex surface that has been modified by all the major geologic processes seen on Earth - volcanism, tectonism, impact cratering, and erosion and deposition by fluvial and aeolian activity. In this paper, we map geomorphological units from SAR data and analyze their areal distribution and relative ages of modification in order to infer the geologic evolution of Titan’s surface. We find that dunes and hummocky and mountainous terrains are more widespread than lakes, putative cryovolcanic features, mottled plains, and craters and crateriform structures that may be due to impact. Undifferentiated plains are the largest areal unit; their origin is uncertain. In terms of latitudinal distribution, dunes and hummocky and mountainous terrains are located mostly at low latitudes (less than 30°), with no dunes being present above 60°. Channels formed by fluvial activity are present at all latitudes, but lakes are at high latitudes only. Crateriform structures that may have been formed by impact appear to be uniformly distributed with latitude, but the well-preserved impact craters are all located at low latitudes, possibly indicating that more resurfacing has occurred at higher latitudes. Cryovolcanic features are not ubiquitous, and are mostly located between 30° and 60° north. We examine temporal relationships between units wherever possible, and conclude that aeolian and fluvial/pluvial/lacustrine processes are the most recent, while tectonic processes that led to the formation of mountains and Xanadu are likely the most ancient.     

A high-resolution real-time forecasting system for predicting the fate of oil spills in the Strait of Bonifacio (western Mediterranean Sea)

The Strait of Bonifacio is a long and narrow area between Corsica and Sardinia. To manage environmental emergencies related to the spill of oil from vessels, an innovative forecasting system was developed. This tool is capable of operationally predicting the dispersion of hydrocarbon spills in the coastal area of the Bonifacio Strait, either from an instantaneous or continuous spill and either in forward or backward mode. Experimental datasets, including ADCP water current measurements and the trajectories of drifter buoys released in the area, were used to evaluate the accuracy of this system. A comparison between the simulation results and experimental data revealed that both the water circulation and the surface transport processes are accurately reproduced by the model. The overall accuracy of the system in reproducing the transport of an oil spill at sea was estimated for both forward and backward prediction mode and in relation to different forecasting time lags.
