Fluid inclusion studies of the Abawso gold prospect,near the Ashanti Belt,Ghana

The major Ghanaian lode gold deposits are preferentially aligned along the western and eastern contacts of the Kumasi Basin with the Ashanti and Sefwi Belts, respectively. The investigated area of the Abawso small-scale concession, covering the workings of the old Ettadom mine, is situated 3 km west of the lithological contact of the Birimian metavolcanic rocks of the Akropong Belt in the east with the Birimian metasedimentary rocks of the Kumasi Basin in the west. The rocks of the Abawso concession represent a steeply NW-dipping limb of a SE-verging anticline with an axis plunging to the SW. Quartz veining occurs predominantly in the form of en échelon dilatational veins along NNE–SSW-striking shear zones of a few metres width and shows evidence of brittle and ductile deformation. Also stockwork-style quartz veining occurs in the vicinity of the main shaft of the old Ettadom mine. Hydrothermal alteration includes sericitisation, sulphidation and locally carbonatisation. The auriferous quartz veins mainly follow the trend of brittle to ductile deformed quartz veins; however, some occur in stockwork. Fluid inclusion studies reveal a large number of H₂O inclusions along intragranular trails in auriferous quartz vein samples, as well as an overall dominance of H₂O and H₂O-CO₂ inclusions over CO₂ inclusions. Textural observations and physico-chemical fluid inclusion properties indicate post-entrapment modifications for all quartz vein samples due to grain boundary migration recrystallisation. This process is interpreted to be responsible for the generation of the CO₂ inclusions from a H₂O-CO₂ parent fluid. In comparison with mineralisation at the Ashanti and Prestea deposits, which are characterised by CO₂±N₂ inclusions, the observed inclusion assemblage may be due to a shallower crustal level of mineralisation, or different degrees and styles of recrystallisation, or a less pronounced development of laminated quartz veins due to comparably restricted pressure fluctuations. Furthermore, the microthermometric observations allow the reconstruction of a possible retrograde P-T path, depicting near-isothermal decompression in the P-T range of the brittle/ductile transition.Editorial handling: E.

黄河水质地球化学

在对1958—2000年期间黄河水系100个站点水质监测资料进行统计分析的基础上,研究了黄河主要离子的地球化学。结果表明,黄河流域各区河水总溶解性固体(TDS)含量的差异达2~3个数量级,TDS的总平均值为452mg/L,是全球河流均值的4倍。Na+、K+、SO42-和Cl-的含量是世界河流均值的10~20倍。相比之下,河水TDS含量的季节差异却不大,远不及与此呈反比关系的流量的季节差异。黄河洪水期的水量通常是枯水期的4~5倍,但枯水期河水的TDS通常只是洪水期的2倍,完全不同于世界其他大河。黄河的离子化学主要受沉积岩(尤其是富含碳酸盐矿物的黄土)化学风化作用和在干旱气候影响下水中溶解盐的蒸发浓缩和结晶作用的控制。近半个世纪来黄河河道径流量有显著减少的趋势,这与新修建的众多水库的蓄水有关,与此相适应,近半个世纪来黄河水质表现出明显的盐渍化过程,这一过程主要由含盐量高的农田灌溉回水所引起。     

An Overview of Dissolved and Suspended Matter Fluxes in the Loire River Basin: Natural and Anthropogenic Inputs

The spatial and temporal distributions of major elements were investigated in the surface waters and in associated suspended matter at two sites of the upper Loire basin (Orleans and Brehemont) between 1995 and 1998.According to geochemical and isotopic patterns, the dissolved load appears to result from a process of mixing rainwater inputs, weathering processes of carbonate and silicate bedrock, and agricultural and urban inputs. Natural inputs influence 60% of water chemical composition at both sites. Annual dissolved fluxes were estimated to be 1300 10³ t/y at Orleans and 1620 10³ t/y at Brehemont. Major elements are transported mainly in the dissolved fraction. After correcting for atmospheric and anthropogenic inputs, the silicate specific export rate was calculated to be 11 t/y/km² throughout the basin and the carbonate specific export rate to be from 47 t/y/km² at Orleans to 23 t/y/km² at Brehemont.The suspended load appears to result from at least two particle reservoirs: a silicate reservoir and a carbonate reservoir. The silicate reservoir has a detrital origin, mainly during periods of high flow, while the carbonate reservoir has a detrital origin during periods of high flow and an authigenic origin during periods of low flow. Of the total annual flow of suspended matter, this authigenic material represents 16% at Orleans, 25% at Brehemont and 37% in the fluvial part of the estuary. After correcting authigenic inputs, the specific export rate due to mechanical weathering was estimated to be 8 t/y/km² throughout the Loire basin.     

漳河流域近60年径流变化分析

1980-2010年石羊河流域生态服务类型变化与分析

根据石羊河流域1980年、1990年和2010年三期遥感影像数据,基于GIS技术方法,分析了石羊河流域各县市的土地利用方式变化情况。评估了流域主要生态系统生态服务价值量,分析了30 a来流域生态系统服务价值在时间和空间上的变化。结果表明：过去30 a来,石羊河流域的土地利用变化主要以耕地、草地、未利用土地的变化为主。石羊河流域生态系统服务的总价值呈减少趋势,生态服务价值在空间分布上表现为下游呈增加趋势、中上游表现为减少趋势。流域下游生态服务价值增加的主要原因是流域生态保护与恢复措施取得了显著成效。     

新疆西准噶尔苏云河钼矿床含矿岩体地球化学和年代学

苏云河钼矿床位于新疆西准噶尔巴尔鲁克山西段,容矿岩石为二长花岗岩和二长花岗斑岩。这些花岗岩具有类似的地球化学特征:富集Rb、Th、U和LREE,相对亏损Ba、P、Ti,属于高钾钙碱性I型花岗岩系列,局部经历过强烈的分离结晶作用。LA-ICPMS锆石U-Pb定年结果显示苏云河钼矿区的成岩年龄为309.3~310.2 Ma,这表明与成矿有关的岩浆活动发生于晚石炭世。黑云母的Ti温度计表明Ⅰ号和Ⅲ号岩体的结晶温度相近,为695~728℃;而Ⅱ号岩体的结晶温度较低,为642~668℃。同时根据角闪石-斜长石压力计获得Ⅰ号和Ⅲ号岩体的结晶压力为(3.0~3.9)×108Pa。综合地球化学研究表明,苏云河钼矿区3个岩体均形成于岛弧环境。此外,以苏云河钼矿床为代表的巴尔鲁克山成矿带与哈萨克斯坦境内的巴尔喀什成矿带在岩石地球化学、成岩成矿时代等方面具有许多类似的特点,表明巴尔鲁克山成矿带可能是巴尔喀什成矿带在中国境内的延伸。     

塔里木河三源流区气候变化对径流量的影响

结合对近50年塔里木河源流区气象、水文资料的分析,探讨了过去半个世纪塔里木河源流区气候变化及其对河川径流的影响。研究结果显示,在过去50年里,塔里木河三源流径流流量总体呈现增加的趋势,期间有波动过程;对影响径流变化的气温、降水和蒸发等因子分析发现,降水量变化对塔里木河径流量变化影响最为显著,而温度的升高,加速了山区冰雪资源的消融,加大了冰雪融水对径流量的补给,但同时导致蒸发量增大,增加了地表淡水资源的消耗,对山区来水量的增大起到一定的削弱作用。     

45a来塔里木河流域气温、降水变化及其对积雪面积的影响

对塔里木河流域19个台站45 a(1958-2002年)的气温、降水序列进行非参数检验,查明其变化趋势及特征,在此基础上,对近20 a(1982-2001年)流域的积雪面积(SCA,%)变化进行趋势与相关分析.结果表明:流域的气温和降水均在20世纪80年代中期发生了阶段式的跳跃增长,气温和降水增加的主要季节分别为冬季和夏季.流域总体的积雪面积呈缓慢增加态势,其中北区和西区增加较为稳定,而南区相对不稳定.在垂直方向上,海拔<2 500 m的区域积雪面积表现缓慢增加,而海拔≥2 500 m的区域则减少.相比较,低海拔区域更易受降水影响,而高海拔区域更易受气温影响.海拔2 500~5 000 m的高度带是对气候变化较为敏感的区域.20世纪90年代与80年代相比,降雪和融雪的速度都更快.积雪与冷季降水呈正相关,但与冷季气温没有明显的相关关系.
