Early-Middle Permian Reef Frameworks and Reef-building Models in the Eastern Kunlun Mountains

Reef frameworks and building models of the Early-Middle Permian in the eastern Kunlun Mountains have been verified through studies of reef-building communities, palaeoecology and carbonate facies. The eastern Kunlun reefs are built mainly by 6 reef-building communities, which include 11 major categories of frame-building organisms and 6 categories of reef-associated organisms. Eight types of reef-frames have been distinguished and eleven kinds of rocks identified to belong to 6 reef facies. Three sorts of reefs classified by previous researchers, namely mudmounds, knoll reefs and walled reefs, are well developed in the study area. Such reef-facies association and reef distribution show that there are 4 models of reef growth and development, i.e. the tidal-bank knoll-reef model, the plateau-margin wall-reef model, the composite wall-reef model and the deep-water mudmound model. The reefs are mainly constructed by calcareous sponge and calcareous algae, which are similar to all Permian reefs in other area     

Engineering Geology of Limestone in Malaysia

This paper provides an overview of the engineering geology of limestone. Limestone is of rather wide occurrence in Malaysia. It is interesting in view of the unique landforms and karstic features that are encountered in limestone terrains, e.g. steep, subvertical limestone cliffs rising abruptly and majestically above the ground surface and highly variable and pinnacled subterranean limestone bedrock. The karstic features and associated engineering geological problems of both the limestone hills and the bedrock are discussed in the paper. Rockfalls, sinkholes, cavities, etc. are some of the common engineering geological problems associated with limestone terrains. Some local case studies are provided as illustrations. Finally the rock mechanical properties of limestone is discussed at the end of the paper.     

青海拉鸡山构造带是裂谷还是构造窗——与王二七研究员商榷

拉鸡山构造带东西长逾650km,展布于由元古宇组成的结晶地块内部，是一条早古生代火山岩极为发育的构造带。长期以来众多学者对拉鸡山进行大地构造学、岩石学研究。作者曾在拉鸡山从事多年野外调查工作，研究认为该地区无论在区域地质学、岩石学、构造变形学还是在大地构造演化方面其早古生代构造演化史皆具典型的裂谷带特征。晚古生代以来，经历了陆内多阶段造山过程，而为后期多阶段抬升的构造窗观点值得商榷。     

Garnet-bearing Granulite Facies Rock Xenoliths from Late Mesozoic Volcaniclastic Breccia, Xinyang, Henan Province

This paper presents the primary results of petrologic, mineralogical and petrochemical studies of garnet-bearing granulite facies rock xenoliths from Xinyang, Henan Province. These xenoliths, which are found in a pipe of late Mesozoic volcaniclastic breccia, are of high density (3.13-3.30 g/cm3) and high seismic velocity (Vp = 7.04-7.31 km/s), being products of underplating of basaltic magmas and had experienced granulite facies metamorphism. The underplating and metamorphism took place before the eruption of the host rock. Petrographical studies and equilibrium T-P calculations show that these xenoliths were captured at a 49 km depth and experienced at least a 16 km uplift before they were captured. The dynamics of the uplift could be related to the continent-continent collision between the North China plate and the Yangtze plate during the Triassic.     

西沙群岛砗磲壳体碳、锶同位素研究及其对比

本文系统地测定了西沙群岛中双壳类鳞砗碟壳体碳、锶同位素，结果发现鳞砗碟壳体的碳、锶同位素的生长变化曲线表现出明显的周期性，碳同位素受到鳞砗碟新陈代谢作用的影响，幼年时期壳体的δ^13C变化，幅度小于发育期，这主要是由于鳞砗磲体内在幼年期能量的消耗大于发育期。通过与其壳体上的生长纹的对比，碳同位素的周期就是生物年生长周期。锶同位素的周期性主要是由于附近大陆年周期性降雨量的变化所引起的，它不受生物生长作用的影响。     

遵义黄家湾镍钼铂族元素矿床地质、地球化学和Re—Os同位素年龄测定——兼论华南寒武系底部黑色页岩多金属成矿作用

黄家湾矿是近几年在贵州遵义地区寒武系底部新发现的黑色页岩镍钼铂族元素矿床,本文介绍了矿床的基本特征和含矿地层,以及在矿层中鉴别出喷流间歇期形成的水云母黄铁矿层.利用负离子热表面电离质谱对矿石进行了Re-Os同位素年龄精测,获得541.3±16Ma(2σ)的等时线年龄.黄家湾矿是华南寒武纪黑色页岩多金属成矿带的一个组成部分.基于矿石的PGE和REE测试,结合前人的工作成果,分析区域构造演化历史和W-Sn-Mo-Sb地球化学富集区,认为区域黑色页岩由正常沉积作用形成;提出了镍钼铂族元素矿的成矿模式,认为这套矿床的形成是由海底喷流系统从海底镁铁质一超镁铁质岩中萃取物质与下伏富Mo-Re-(Cu)岩浆房提供成矿能源和部分物源共同作用的结果.     

大连湾60多年来生态环境地质演化

依据对大连湾60多年来沉积柱的生态环境地质演化研究，发现其污染变化可以分为3个时期：①1933－1974年为洁净时段；②1974－1989年为污染较重时段；③1989－1997年为严重污染时段。若视第一时段的污染度为0，则第二时段的污染度为第一时段的8倍，第三时段的污染度为第一时段的25倍，可见污染度增加是非常迅速和严重的。其中Cd、Pb、As、S、Zn5种元素含量增加最快。1997年大连湾表面沉积物中Cd、Hg、Pb、As的含量分别为自然背景值的81．42倍、6．0倍、7．54倍、3．82倍，表明大连湾污染的严重性。研究发现自1950年以来大连湾生物多样性急剧下降，说明污染度增加已对生命健康造成严惩的影响。大连湾的臭水套已成为一个生物多样性异常低下的、超级污染的环境，是一颗巨大的隐性化学定时炸弹。

稠油出砂冷采技术对地层原油含有溶解气的各类疏松砂岩稠油油藏具有较广泛的适应性，它通过大量砂子的产出和泡沫油的形成，获得较高的原油产量，河南油田于1996年在国内率先开展稠油出砂冷采技术调研及可行性研究，出砂冷采机理及配套工艺技术研究，并于1997年6月进入现场先导试验，矿场试验已展示出明显出砂冷采特征的G4906井，日产油量20t-30t，是常规开采和蒸汽吞吐的10倍和4倍以上，开采成本比蒸汽吞吐降低47%，出砂冷采工业化应用配套技术的形成和应用，将使国内及河南油田稠油资源利用程度进一步提高。     

海南岛前寒纪岩石圈演化的记录：基性岩类岩石地球化学证据

海南岛前寒武纪基性岩类具有的不同的岩石地球化学特征，记录了海南岛前寒武纪大地构造环境和岩石圈的演化史。古中元古代时，琼中屯昌变基性－超基性岩，为大洋型火山岛弧低钾拉斑玄武岩，明显具有镁铁质－玄武质科马提岩特征，来源于高度亏损的地幔；与之同时代的琼西，则为一套具洋底玄武岩和岛弧拉弦玄武岩的过渡型玄武岩，是古俯冲带上部地幔楔和自消减带卷入地幔楔地壳物质所组成的混合端元部分熔融产物，具低亏损地幔特征，产生于弧后（或弧间）盆地环境；中新元古代的琼西变基性－超基性岩具铁镁质－超铁镁质科马提岩特征，来源于较高亏损的地幔，产于大洋板块边缘的构造环境。据此，可以推测，海南岛前寒武纪岩石圈演化至少经历了古中元古代的古板块俯冲、中新元古代的裂解二次事件，并伴随洋盆的出现。
