准噶尔盆地南缘新生代地层时代研究

对准噶尔盆地南缘金沟河剖面进行了磁性地层学研究,建立了该剖面精细的磁极性年代框架,并探讨了准噶尔盆地南缘新生代地层的年代。金沟河剖面出露的新生代地层厚约4160m,由老到新依次为安集海河组、沙湾组、塔西河组、独山子组和西域组。通过系统热退磁和剩磁测量,1285块样品获得特征剩磁,并由此建立该剖面自出露的安集海河组底部至西域组中部厚约3250m地层的磁极性柱。根据该剖面极性柱的变化特征和剖面中发现的两处脊椎动物化石,与2004年标准磁极性柱进行了对比。结果表明,金沟河剖面研究段地层的年代约为28.0—4.0Ma,其中安集海河组、沙湾组、塔西河组和独山子组的年代分别约为28.0—23.3Ma、23.3—17.5Ma、17.5—13.2Ma和13.2—6.0Ma,根据沉积速率外推得到的西域组的年代约为6.0—1.1Ma。与前人划分的准噶尔盆地南缘新生代地层的年代相比较,金沟河剖面磁性地层学确定的安集海河组、沙湾组和塔西河组的年代与前人的划分基本相符,而独山子组和西域组的年代则明显偏老。     

成矿概率面金属量法在东天山铜镍矿预测中的应用

地球化学方法被普遍应用于矿产资源定量预测,但多数方法都只是基于地球化学数据本身而进行的,较少考虑除成矿物质来源之外的诸如构造、地层等地质环境的影响,结果使估算的资源量不能够很好符合客观实际。在充分研究地质因素的基础上,认为物质基础和富集强度是矿床形成的重要条件,并据此对传统面金属量法进行了修正,建立了成矿概率面金属量法。该法可在一定程度上屏蔽虚假资源量。笔者采用成矿概率面金属量法对东天山地区铜镍矿的铜资源量进行了定量评价,效果较好。预测结果表明,东天山地区该类型铜矿资源潜力较大。     

西秦岭天水地区新生代酸性火山岩地球化学特征及其构造意义

西秦岭天水地区分布有新生代陆相酸性火山岩，主要由流纹岩、流纹质角砾凝灰熔岩、流纹质熔结(角砾)凝灰岩及少量角砾凝灰岩、火山角砾岩等组成，具有富硅、富碱、低铝、低钙特征，属于非造山偏碱性岩石，类似于大陆裂谷碱性流纹岩。研究表明，新生代陆相酸性火山岩为地壳岩石部分熔融作用的产物，形成于陆内拉张构造环境，与新生代早期渭河断裂带的左行走滑剪切构造作用有关。     

昆仑山与汶川强烈地震对青藏块体东北缘地壳运动及应变积累的影响

充分应用GPS、区域水准、跨断层等地形变观测资料, 借助非震负位错反演, 结合地震活动, 综合研究2001年11月14日昆仑山Ms8.1级地震对青藏块体东北缘地壳运动与应变积累的影响。通过分析笔者认为, 青藏块体内部Ms8.1级巨大地震能量释放产生的扰动应力场对NE向主压背景应力场的调制作用, 导致块体边界构造区域地壳差异运动和应力应变状态发生变化。其中, 对阿尔金断裂东段与祁连山断裂带西段的应变积累状态反映减缓为主的影响, 而对祁连山断裂带中东段则反映促进应变积累为主的影响。这种影响是一定时期、一定程度的。近期青藏块体东北缘区域应力场处于昆仑山、玉门、民乐等地震后的恢复状态。而由2008年5月12日汶川Ms8.0地震后有限的GPS、跨断层短水准观测资料, 可推测汶川地震对甘川交界东段-甘川陕交界区应变积累状况一定程度促进影响。     

大别山低级变质岩的构造背景

大别山南北两侧的浅变质岩是碰撞造山以前洋壳俯冲造山阶段的重要组成部分。木兰山片岩或张八岭群是俯冲的洋壳;苏家河群、信阳群和佛子岭群是由洋壳俯冲形成的海沟沉积,并因俯冲过程中的前进变形而形成增生楔;杨山煤系和梅山群是石炭纪弧前盆地沉积,并因俯冲过程中的前进变形而被增生楔逆掩。宿松群是扬子大陆被动边缘沉积,不是俯冲造山带的成员。因洋壳俯冲形成的弧和弧后盆地可能已被新生界沉积物掩盖。高压—超高压变质带是碰撞造山后期从深部折返的外来体。高压—超高压变质带正好处于洋壳和增生楔之间,破坏了早期洋壳俯冲造山带的完整性,使得洋壳俯冲造山阶段的特征被破坏,因而不易辨别。俯冲造山阶段应为奥陶纪到泥盆纪,碰撞造山阶段应从二叠纪开始。     

大别山超高压岩石的流变学研究

本文利用野外构造解析、透射电镜、岩组等手段,对大别山地区超高压岩石的变形表象及变形机制进行了详细的观察和研究,从而动态地建立了超高压岩石折返的PTtD轨迹。结果表明:超高压石榴橄榄岩经历了高温和低温两种变形,其中橄榄石中发育高温[001](100)和中低温[010](100)两种滑移系。超高压榴辉岩中绿辉石的位错构造发育,位错密度为4.98×10~7/cm~2。绿辉石亚颗粒的特征显示存在颗粒边界迁移和扩散蠕变。绿辉石的组构测定表明,绿辉石晶内塑性流动形成了[001]极密,该极密平行于线理,属L型收缩组构。组构对称型显示本区榴辉岩以共轴变形为主,由于应变分解,部分地区含非共轴成分。付林图解表明,绿辉石和石榴子石的变形均属于收缩型椭球,拉伸型应变,这与绿辉石组构测定结果一致。石榴子石位错密度为3.54×10~7/cm~2,部分地区的石榴子石发育动态重结晶及核幔构造等,形成榴辉岩相糜棱岩。另外根据不同超高压岩石中石英的位错密度或亚颗粒大小,计算了超高压岩石折返时各个阶段的应力大小。     

祁连山摆浪河谷地的冰川地貌与冰期

祁连山摆浪河上游是一个以前研究者未曾涉足的地方，我们在这里发现6套保存完好的古冰川沉积和与之对应的冰水阶地以及上覆较厚的黄土 堆积，根据地貌地层学研究和^14C、TL、ESR测年，确认它们分别代表了小冰期、新冰期、同位素2阶段、4阶段、6阶段和12阶段6次冰川作用，是迄今在祁连山地区发现的相对比较确定的清晰齐全的第四纪冰川序列，发生于氧同位素12阶段的中梁赣冰期，表明抬升中的祁连山至少于460kaBP前与冰期气候耦合，进入了当时的冰冻圈。     

气候变化对河西内陆干旱区出山径流的影响

根据祁连山区与河西走廊平原区有关水文气象台站的降水、气温和径流观测资料，分析了该区域近50a来气候变化的特征及其与全球气候变暖的关系。出山径流对气候变化的响应以及未来的变化趋势，结果表明，河西内陆干旱区的山区和走廊平原区近几十年来气温变化总的呈上升趋势，与全球增温存在着某种种度的一致性。但山区气温的变化幅度一般大于走廊平原区，其中祁连山中段温度升幅为最大。全球增温对河西内陆干旱区气候与出山径流的影响有着明显的地域性差异，受此影响影响，河西祁连山东部地区出山径流呈明显的下降趋势，中部地区出山径流的增加趋势不是十分明显，西部出山径流在山区降水量与气温同时上升的情况下，呈明显的上升趋势。     

Geo–tectonic Position of Tin Polymetallic Mineralization Zone in the Southern Da Hinggan Mountains Area, Inner Mongolia, China: An Introduction to This Special Issue

Abstract: As a part of the main activities of Japan‐China technical cooperation project, a test survey area, approximately 5,000 km², was established for the implement of its geological and geochemical research program. A major mineralization zone called Huanggang–Ganzhuermiao–Wulanhaote Sn‐Cu polymetallic mineralization zone is recognized in the southern Da Hinggan Mountains area. The southern half of this zone is known as the sole Sn‐mineralization zone in North China. The survey area lies in this prominent zone. As the most of the papers presented in this issue have concerns to the geology and mineralization in this survey area, this report was prepared to introduce geo‐tectonic situation of the Sn‐Cu polymetallic mineralization zone in the Inner Mongolia orogenic belt. The belt is divided into four tectonic facies (from NW to SE); I: Wuliyasitai volcano‐plutonic zone, II: Hegenshan ophiolite mélange zone, III: Sunitezuoqi volcano‐plutonic zone, IV: Wenduermiao ophiolite mélange zone. The subject Sn‐Cu polymetallic mineralization zone is situated in the southeastern part of the Sunitezuoqi magmatic zone. About this Sunitezuoqi magmatic zone, three geo‐tectonic characteristics are pointed out. In late Carboniferous to early Permian period, subduction of Hegenshan oceanic crust occurred, which accelerated volcano‐plutonic activities and brought about basic to intermediate volcanic rocks of tholeiitic to calc‐alkaline series represented by Dashizhai Group in the Sunitezuoqi magmatic zone. Late Jurassic to early Cretaceous acidic rocks representing the most culminated volcanism and plutonism in Mesozoic era in the Da Hinggan Moutains area are distributed very extensively in and around the Sn‐Cu polymetallic mineralization zone. The Proterozoic metamorphic basement rocks called Xilinhaote complex are distributed close to the mineralized area in the Sunitezuoqi magmatic zone. Although the real mineralization was known associated with Mesozoic acidic to intermediate volcano‐plutonic activities, it is thought that the lower Permian Dashizhai volcanic rocks and pre‐Cambrian basement rocks might have played certain significant role in the process respectively of extraction of elements and formation of the magma favorable for such mineralization in the Sunitezuoqi magmatic zone. It would be necessary to give further considerations to these three geological units in relation to the Sn‐Cu polymetallic mineralization.

Correlation census shows that the correlation between the tree-ring chronologies in the Urumqi River Basin and precipitation during July in the last year to February in the concurrent year is significant,and the best single correlation coefficient is 0.74,with significance level of 0.0001.Using two residual chronologies collected from west Baiyanggou and Boerqingou,precipitation for 348 years can be reconstructed in the North Slope of middle Tianshan Mountains,its explained variance is 62%.According to much verification from independent precipitation data,historical climate records,glacier and other data.it shows that the reconstructed precipitation series of 348 years is reliable.Analysis of precipitation features indicates that there were three wet periods occurring during 1671-1692,1716-1794 and 1825-1866 and three dry periods during 1693-1715,1795-1824 and 1867-1969.Two wet periods,during 1716-1794 and 1825-1866,correspond to the times of the second and the third glacial terminal moraine formation,which is infront of No.1 glacier in Urumqi River source.According to computation,corresponding annual precipitation amounts are 59mm and 30mm more than now.The reconstructed precipitation series has a significant drying trend from 1716 to 1969.and has better representativeness to the precipitation of Urumqi and Changji Prefecture on the North Slope of Tianshan Mountains.
