峨眉山玄武岩浆喷发对贵州西部区域成矿贡献研究

早、晚二叠世之间大规模峨眉山玄武岩喷发是峨眉地幔热柱基性岩浆活动的高峰期.峨眉山玄武岩在贵州西部地区广泛分布,它不仅以矿源层形式参与钼、铜、铅、锌、金、锑、汞、铊等以地下水热液成矿作用为主的层控矿床的形成,而且它自身形成火山气液型矿床--玄武岩铜矿及伴生热液型铂、钯等矿化点;再者它是外生矿床--高砷煤、高氟煤、高硫煤、高汞煤形成的主要原因.     

Crustal structure of the Ordovician Macquarie Arc,Eastern Lachlan Orogen,based on seismic‐reflection profiling

In the Eastern Lachlan Orogen, the mineralised Molong and Junee‐Narromine Volcanic Belts are two structural belts that once formed part of the Ordovician Macquarie Arc, but are now separated by younger Silurian‐Devonian strata as well as by Ordovician quartz‐rich turbidites. Interpretation of deep seismic reflection and refraction data across and along these belts provides answers to some of the key questions in understanding the evolution of the Eastern Lachlan Orogen—the relationship between coeval Ordovician volcanics and quartz‐rich turbidites, and the relationship between separate belts of Ordovician volcanics and the intervening strata. In particular, the data provide evidence for major thrust juxtaposition of the arc rocks and Ordovician quartz‐rich turbidites, with Wagga Belt rocks thrust eastward over the arc rocks of the Junee‐Narromine Volcanic Belt, and the Adaminaby Group thrust north over arc rocks in the southern part of the Molong Volcanic Belt. The seismic data also provide evidence for regional contraction, especially for crustal‐scale deformation in the western part of the Junee‐Narromine Volcanic Belt. The data further suggest that this belt and the Ordovician quartz‐rich turbidites to the east (Kirribilli Formation) were together thrust over ?Cambrian‐Ordovician rocks of the Jindalee Group and associated rocks along west‐dipping inferred faults that belong to a set that characterises the middle crust of the Eastern Lachlan Orogen. The Macquarie Arc was subsequently rifted apart in the Silurian‐Devonian, with Ordovician volcanics preserved under the younger troughs and shelves (e.g. Hill End Trough). The Molong Volcanic Belt, in particular, was reworked by major down‐to‐the‐east normal faults that were thrust‐reactivated with younger‐on‐older geometries in the late Early ‐ Middle Devonian and again in the Carboniferous.     

论五大连池火山岩浆演化

五大连池第四纪火山事件为同源多期喷发。据矿物中岩浆包裹体温压地球化学研究,五大连池火山岩浆为一种含水2～4％(wt.％)的富钾玄武质岩浆,浅部结晶(压力<100MPa)。火山演化历史中,从中更新世早期至近代(1719～1721年)喷发,岩浆的MgO、CaO,FeO含量、CO_2浓度,首晶相橄榄石的结晶温度和压力不断增高;SiO_2、TiO_2、K_2O含量、氧逸度和H_2O、CH_4、H_2S的浓度趋于下降,Cl、P、F的浓度也呈现有规律变化。这些特点是岩浆房内岩浆分层作用的反映,火山岩浆的喷发序次与岩浆房内的分层次序相反。火山岩浆的低S含量(<600ppm)及Sr、O、Nd、Pb等同位素研究数据表明,它们源自上地慢,且基本未受地壳物质混染。     

岩浆密度及其重要意义

本文通过计算不同构造环境的原生玄武岩岩浆密度,首次提出了两种原生玄武岩浆密度类型:岛弧玄武岩浆(AB)密度类型(Ⅰ);WB MORB岩浆密度类型(Ⅱ)。指出Ⅰ型岩浆密度受控于岩浆起源的fO2和fH2O条件;Ⅱ型岩浆密度则与岩浆起源压力有关。原生岩浆密度可作为判定岩浆产出的地球动力学背景的重要标志之一。考察岩浆密度与压力的关系,指出原生玄武岩浆密度在一定程度上控制了岩浆房的发育部位(深度),制约了岩浆结晶的温压条件,并对岩浆侵位与喷发产生重要影响。在岛弧地区,岩浆密度与地壳厚度变化严格地控制着岛弧岩石系列(Tb-CA-Sh)的时空演变,决定了岩浆的演化途径和结晶条件。利用岩浆密度资料,反演并建立了义敦岛弧区的地壳双层结构模式。     

海南岛石碌群中双峰火山岩Sm—Nd同位素特征兼论石碌铁矿成矿背景

对海南岛石碌群第６层及其相当层位中海相双峰火山岩Ｓｍ－Ｎｄ同位素，微量和稀土元素的研究表明，位于火山岩带西段军营和石碌的细碧岩具有Ｎ－ＭＯＲＢ特征，在中段和东段芙蓉田和兰洋的变拉斑玄武岩具有Ｅ－ＭＯＲＢ和ＩＲＴ（初始裂谷拉斑玄武岩）特征。石碌群的玄武岩和石碌Ｆｅ－Ｃｏ－Ｃｕ矿床分别与红海裂谷中南段的新生代玄武岩和Ａｔｈａｎｔｉｓ Ⅱ ＤｅｅＰ多金属矿床有许多相同之处。双峰火山岩的另一端元为壳源型石     

华北板块北缘中段含铁变质岩系的时代和构造环境初探

内蒙北部苏尼特右旗以北二道井、哈拉干和红格尔地区的含铁变质岩系中变质基性火山岩Ｓｍ－Ｎｄ全岩等时线年龄为１５１１±７６Ｍａ，这表明该岩系属中元古代而不是以往推测的早古生代，等时线的εＮｄ（ｔ）值为＋６．３±１．７，属亏损型地幔源区岩相学分析表明它形成于规模不大，具中等水深和较弱水动力条件的较封闭海域。据上述特征推测，华北板块北缘中曾存在中元古代初动型火山陆缘。

福建上杭盆地中生代火山岩首次发现开来石

在１：５万上杭幅重砂野外调查中，在上杭盆地中生代火山岩河系中首次发现开来石。经中国地质大学Ｘ光单晶粉晶分析、桂林有色金属地质研究所电子探针成分分析结果，均与国外有关文献中的开来石相一致。是我省首次发现的含砷稀土矿物。它为在该区中生代火山岩中寻找稀土资源提供新的线索。此外该矿物常与黄金、辰砂等相伴生，笔者初步认为可以根据伴生金的相关元素Ａｓ开来石组合寻找金，是本区很值得注意的一种寻找金的方法。     

Bifurcation of volcanic plumes in a crosswind

Bent-over buoyant jets distorted by a crosscurrent develop a vortex pair structure and can bifurcate to produce two distinct lobes which diverge from one another downwind. The region downwind of the source between the lobes has relatively low proportions of discharged fluid. Factors invoked by previous workers to cause or enhance bifurcation include buoyancy, release of latent heat at the plume edge by evaporating water droplets, geometry and orientation of the source, and the encounter with a density interface on the rising path of the plume. We suggest that the pressure distribution around the vortex pair of a rising plume may initially trigger bifurcation. We also report new experimental observations confirming that bifurcation becomes stronger for stronger bent-over plumes, identifying that bifurcation can also occur for straight-edged plumes but gradually disappears for stronger plumes which form a gravity current at their final level and spread for a significant distance against the current. Observations from satellites and the ground are reviewed and confirm that volcanic plumes can show bifurcation and a large range of bifurcation angles. Many of the bifurcating plumes spread out at the tropopause level and suggest the tropopause may act on the plumes as a density interface enhancing bifurcation. Even for quite moderate bifurcation angles, the two plume lobes become rapidly separated downwind by distances of tens of kilometers. Such bifurcating plumes drifting apart can only result in bilobate tephra fall deposits. The tephra fall deposit from the 16 km elevation, SE spreading, bifurcating volcanic plume erupted on 15 May 1981 from Mt Pagan was sampled by previous workers and clearly displayed bilobate characteristics. Examples of bilobate tephra fall deposits are reviewed and their origin briefly discussed. Bilobate deposits are common and may result from many causes. Plume bifurcation should be considered one of the possible mechanisms which can account for come examples of bilobate tephra fall deposits.     

Seismic activity related to the 1991 eruption of Colima Volcano,Mexico

Ten years after the last effusive eruption and at least 15 years of seismic quiescence, volcanic seismic activity started at Colima volcano on 14 February 1991, with a seismic crisis which reached counts of more than 100 per day and showed a diversity of earthquake types. Four other distinct seismic crises followed, before a mild effusive eruption in April 1991. The second crisis preceded the extrusion of an andesitic scoriaceous lava lobe, first reported on 1 March; during this crisis an interesting temporary concentration of seismic foci below the crater was observed shortly before the extrusion was detected. The third crisis was constituted by shallow seismicity, featuring possible mild degassing explosion-induced activity in the form of hiccups (episodes of simple wavelets that repeat with diminishing amplitude), and accompanied by increased fumarolic activity. The growth of the new lava dome was accompanied by changing seismicity. On 16 April during the fifth crisis which consisted of some relatively large, shallow, volcanic earthquakes and numerous avalanches of older dome material, part of the newly extruded dome, which had grown towards the edge of the old dome, collapsed, producing the largest avalanches and ash flows. Afterwards, block lava began to flow slowly along the SW flank of the volcano, generating frequent small incandescent avalanches. The seismicity associated with the stages of this eruptive activity shows some interesting features: most earthquake foci were located north of the summit, some of them relatively deep (7–11 km below the summit level), underneath the saddle between the Colima and the older Nevado volcanoes. An apparently seismic quiet region appears between 4 and 7 km below the summit level. In June, harmonic tremors were detected for the first time, but no changes in the eruptive activity could be correlated with them. After June, the seismicity decreasing trend was established, and the effusive activity stopped on September 1991.
