The Zoulang Nanshan Caledonian Subduct ion Complex in the Northern Qilian Mountains and Its Dynamics

The front of the Zoulang Nanshan Caledonian volcanic island arc zone in the northern Qilian Mountains is a forearc accretionary terrane, composed of multiple accretionary volcanic island arcs, flysch accretionary wedges,high-pressure metamorphosed detachment zones and remnants of ophiolites. It resulted from the northeastward subduction of the Early Palaeozoic Qilan oceanic crust beneath the Alxa block. High-pressure metamorphism, which occurred during the subduction, progressed through three stages: the initial stage of medium T-high P,the main stage of temperature decrease and pressure increase, and the lag stage of pressure decrease and temperature increase. Finally the paper presents a retrotrench subduction dynamic model indicative of northward subduction of the central Qilian block and southward accretion of the Alxa block during the period of 450-500 Ma.     

运动学涡度在藏南冈底斯岩浆带中段谢通门-曲水韧性剪切带中的应用

一般剪切带主要由纯剪切和简单剪切共同作用,不同的剪切带及不同的构造位置两者所占有的比例不同。利用运动学涡度(Wk)可以定量地分析两者间的比值大小。本文通过极莫尔圆法和有限应变轴率Rs/石英c轴组构法对冈底斯岩浆带中段谢通门-曲水滑覆型韧性剪切带的运动学涡度进行了计算,两种方法获得了较为一致的结果。通过极莫尔圆法,对剪切带中的9组糜棱岩样品进行了运动学涡度计算,获得了Wk=0.73~0.96,平均值Wk=0.83。运用有限应变轴率Rs/石英c轴组构法对4个样品进行了分析,得到Wk=0.85~0.93,均值为0.88,两种方法获得了较为一致的应变结果。还根据极莫尔圆图解,计算了该韧性剪切带的减薄量S=0.09~0.35,平均减薄量为0.20。研究表明该韧性剪切带为典型的以简单剪切为主伴有部分纯剪切的一般剪切,该剪切带的形成可能与拉萨地体在中新世时从挤压到侧向伸展的转换有关。该剪切带变形特征和运动学涡度的确定深化了对藏南冈底斯地区的构造演化过程的理解,并对青藏高原中南部的地质研究具有推进作用。     

东昆仑山南缘大型转换挤压构造带和斜向俯冲作用

东昆仑地体和巴颜喀拉－－松潘甘孜地体之间的会聚边界是一条位于东昆仑南缘的大型转换挤压构造带。研究表明该带的东段（阿尼玛卿段）和西段（东－西大滩段）构造特征不同,阿尼玛卿段的构造以印支期具往南西造山极性的逆冲叠覆岩片和新生代脆性左行走滑构造为特征,东－西大滩段是由220Ma形成的EW向韧性左行走滑剪切带及两则伴生的挤压褶皱断裂带组成,韧性变形持续至20Ma,之后表现为脆性左行走滑构造再活动。因此,东昆仑南缘大型会聚带是一条由东段的“收缩挤压”为主向西段的“转换挤压”逐渐过度的特殊复杂的构造带,它的形成与巴颜喀拉－－松潘甘孜地体往NE方向斜向俯冲于东昆仑地体之下有关。     

Petrology of ultrahigh-pressure eclogites from the ZK703 drillhole in the Donghai, eastern China

The 558-m-deep ZK703 drillhole located near Donghai in the southern part of the Sulu ultrahigh-pressure metamorphic belt, eastern China, penetrates alternating layers of eclogites, gneisses, jadeite quartzites, garnet peridotites, phengite–quartz schists, and kyanite quartzites. The preservation of ultrahigh-pressure metamorphic minerals and their relics, together with the contact relationship and protolith types of the various rocks indicates that these are metamorphic supracrustal rocks and mafic-ultramafic rock assemblages that have experienced in-situ ultrahigh-pressure metamorphism. The eclogites can be divided into five types based on accessory minerals: rutile eclogite, phengite eclogite, kyanite–phengite eclogite, quartz eclogite, and common eclogite with rare minor minerals. Rutile eclogite forms a thick layer in the drillhole that contains sufficient rutile for potential mining. Two retrograde assemblages are observed in the eclogites: the first stage is characterized by the formation of sodic plagioclase+amphibole symplectite or symplectitic coronas after omphacite and garnet, plagioclase+biotite after garnet or phengite, and plagioclase coronas after kyanite; the second stage involved total replacement of omphacite and garnet by amphibole+albite+epidote+quartz. Peak metamorphic P–T conditions of the eclogites were around 32 to 40 kbar and 720°C to 880°C. The retrograde P–T path of the eclogites is characterized by rapidly decreasing pressure with slightly decreasing temperature. Micro-textures and compositional variations in symplectitic minerals suggest that the decompression breakdown of ultrahigh-pressure minerals is a domainal equilibrium reaction or disequilibrium reaction. The composition of the original minerals and the diffusion rate of elements involved in these reactions controlled the symplectitic mineral compositions.     

东北帕米尔中新世中下地壳物质的折返过程：公格尔西滑脱剪切带的构造变形与年代学证据

公格尔西滑脱剪切带位于东北帕米尔公格尔片麻岩穹窿西缘。通过我们详细的野外观测、显微构造观察、石英电子背散射衍射(EBSD)测试以及锆石U-Pb测年,对公格尔西滑脱剪切带的几何学、运动学特征及其形成演化时限进行了研究。公格尔西滑脱剪切带糜棱岩中大量的石榴子石、矽线石和蓝晶石等表明其为高级变质产物。S/C组构、旋转碎斑及不对称褶皱等变形现象说明剪切带上盘向W或SW低角度剪切的运动特征。高级变质糜棱岩和浅色岩脉记录约20 Ma的206 U-238Pb锆石年龄,说明公格尔西滑脱剪切带初始形成于早中新世。结合前人研究成果,我们认为公格尔西滑脱剪切带曾是狭长的帕米尔中下地壳滑脱带的最北段。由于新生代印度亚洲大陆碰撞以后印度板块仍持续向N俯冲推进,帕米尔地壳由S向N开始增厚,进变质作用最初发生于南帕米尔,约20 Ma时到达北帕米尔。东北帕米尔中下地壳物质开始折返于中新世中期。而直到6~4 Ma,东北帕米尔公格尔地区开始快速隆起,此时公格尔新生代高级变质岩才快速折返。     

东北帕米尔塔什库尔干中新世高钾碱性岩的成因机制与大地构造意义

塔什库尔干地区位于青藏高原西北缘,帕米尔高原东北部,是中国境内唯一属于帕米尔弧形构造带的地区。然而,对于东北帕米尔地区新生代岩浆作用的研究相对青藏高原主体的研究薄弱得多。我们对东北帕米尔塔什库尔干地区新生代岩浆岩的锆石U-Pb年代学、地球化学及锆石Hf同位素组成进行了研究。结果表明:塔什库尔干新生代岩体中锆石U-Pb年龄约为10 Ma。所有样品显示高钾、碱性特征:K_2O(4.39%~11.86%)、AR值为3.07~6.36及A/CNK为0.57~0.81,为高钾碱性岩。塔什库尔新生代高钾碱性岩相对亏损Nb、Ta、Zr、Hf、Ti等高场强元素。岩石具有高的Sr/Y比值,Eu异常不明显。富集LREE,(La/Yb)_N=40.26~287.59。这些地球化学特征指示了塔什库尔干高钾碱性岩可能来源于榴辉岩相加厚下地壳。岩石的ε_(Hf)(t)为-0.83~-8.90,范围较大,说明其源岩物质主要来自地壳。推测新生代印度—亚洲大陆碰撞后,印度板块持续向北推进引起帕米尔地壳快速增厚,由于地壳增厚不均以及喀喇昆仑断裂的向北扩展作用,在中新世中期塔什库尔干地区局部范围内岩石圈重力失稳并发生垮塌,下地壳发生部分熔融形成高钾碱性岩浆。     

塔里木盆地显生宙古隆起的分布及迁移

塔里木盆地属于多期叠合盆地,存在多期不整合与古隆起构造,二者的形成及发育密切相关。利用钻井、地震、野外露头等综合资料,开展了盆地尺度的构造层、不整合结构构造、累积最小生长指数分析,进一步了解盆地内多个古隆起的分布、成因及隆升过程,特别是和田、塔中、塔北、巴楚、塔东古隆起及其内部的形成演化。发现盆地内不同时期古隆起构造变形和展布与盆地周缘造山带构造作用相响应。早古生代以来盆地内古隆起经历了6次大的迁移,每次迁移的动力来源于该时期盆地周缘的板块边缘或造山带的构造活动。根据隆起形成的主控因素,塔里木盆地古隆起主要可分为4种成因类型,包括断控隆起、继承性隆起、前陆盆地前缘隆起和构造古地理隆起等。古隆起隆升的差异还体现在隆起区内不同部位上,对油气成藏有重要意义。

北祁连造山带东段白银地区的构造单元划分及韧性变形

北祁连造山带东段的白银地区可划分出四个构造单元（Ｂ１、Ｂ２、Ｂ３和Ｂ４）：Ｂ１属于中宫变质地块，Ｂ２为古祁洋在俯冲过程中形成的增生杂岩，Ｂ３属于加里东期的古火山岛弧Ｂ４为弧后残余海盆。本区存在两期韧性变形，和线期韧性变形以形成近垂直于造山带的ＮＥ－ＳＷ向拉伸线理为特征，剪切标志显示其主要为一系列从Ｎ－Ｓ的逆冲叠覆构造２，与古祁连洋向北的俯冲作用有关，第二期韧性变形形成四条韧性平移剪切带（ＳＺ１、Ｓ     

The mineral chemistry of pyroxenite xenoliths in the volcanic rocks of Hoh Xil and their significance

The pyroxenite xenoliths in the volcanic rocks of Hoh Xil consist of clinopyroxenes and orthopyroxenes. The mineral composition of these pyroxenes is similar to that of mantle xenoliths including peridotite and pyroxenite from China and abroad, and different from that of granulites. The pyroxenes formed at 1101–1400°C (averaging 1250°C) and under 30–60 kb (averaging 46 kb). We deduced that the magma was derived from the mantle at a depth of more than 150 km, which fits in with the geophysical conclusion that the low-velocity layer existed in the mantle under 150 km.
