The characteristic target-pattern regional ore zonality of the Nanling region, China (Ⅲ)

By applying the ‘theory of synchronization' from the science of complexity to studying the regional regularity of ore formation within the Nanling region of South China,a characteristic target-pattern regional ore zonality has been discovered.During the early and late Yanshanian epoch (corresponding respectively to the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods),two centers of ore formation emerged successively in the Narding region; the former is mainly for rare metals (W,Sn,Mo,Bi,Nb) and one rare earth element (La) and was generated in the Jurassic period; whereas the latter is mainly for base metals (Cu,Pb,Zn,Sb,Hg),noble metals (Au,Ag),and one radioactive element (U) and was generated in the Cretaceous period.Centers of ore formation were brought about by interface dynamics respectively at the Qitianling and Jiuyishan districts in southern Hunan Province.The characteristic giant nonlinear target pattern regional ore zonality was generated respectively from the two centers of ore formation by the spatio-temporal synchronization process of the Nanling complex metallogenic system.It induced the collective dynamics and cooperative behavior of the system and displayed the configuration of the regional ore zonality.Then dynamical clustering transformed the configuration into rudimentary ordered coherent structures.Phase dynamics eventually defined the spatio-temporal structures of the target-pattern regional ore zonality and determined their localization and distribution.The integral successive processes of synchronization-dynamical clustering-phase dynamics accomplished the regional ore zonality by way of "multiple field dynamics" of spatio-temporal superposition of multiple coupled pulsatory solitary wave trains of the zonal sequences of different ores.A new methodology for revealing regional ore zonality is developed,which will encourage further investigation of the formation of deep-seated ore resources and the onset of large-scale mineralization.

Progressive,episodic deformation in the Mexican Fold–Thrust Belt (central Mexico): evidence from isotopic dating of folds and faults

We used illite Ar/Ar dating to obtain absolute ages of folds and shear zones formed within the Mexican Fold–Thrust Belt (MFTB). The methodology takes advantage of illite dating in folded, clay-bearing layers and the ability to obtain accurate ages from small-size fractions of illite using encapsulated Ar analysis. We applied our approach to a cross-section that involves folded Aptian–Cenomanian shale-bentonitic layers interbedded with carbonates of the Zimapán (ZB) and Tampico–Misantla (TMB) Cretaceous basins in central-eastern Mexico. Basinal carbonates were buried by syn-tectonic turbidites and inverted during the formation of the MFTB in the Late Cretaceous. Results from folds and shear zones record different pulses of deformation within this thin-skinned orogenic wedge.

Mineralogical compositions, variations in illite polytypes, illite crystallite size (CS), and Ar/Ar ages were obtained from several size fractions in limbs and hinges of the folds and in the shear zones. 1M_d-illite polytype (with CS of 6–9 nm) dominates in two folds in the TMB while 2M₁-illlite (with CS of 14–30 nm) dominates in the third fold, in the ZB, and in the fold/shear zone. From west (higher grade) to east (lower grade): Ar retention ages indicate shearing occurred at ~84 Ma in the westernmost shear zone, folding at ~82 Ma in the ZB with subsequent localized shearing at ~77 Ma, and Ar total gas ages constrain the time of folding at ~64 Ma on the west side of the TMB and ~44 Ma on the eastern edge. These results are consistent with the age and distribution of syn-tectonic turbidites and indicate episodic progression of deformation from west to east.     

柴达木盆地东北部中新世沉积物色度记录的气候变化

中新世是新生代古气候变化的关键时期。本文以柴达木盆地东北部瑙格剖面18.4～6.9Ma沉积物为研究对象,通过对沉积物颜色指标的测定与分析,获得该时段沉积物高分辨率颜色指标变化序列。发现色度值变化与氧化—还原作用有关,红度值与赤铁矿相对含量呈正相关。结合其它资料分析表明,柴达木盆地东北部地区中新世气候变化为18.4～14.2Ma相对暖湿阶段、14.2～7.7Ma相对冷湿阶段、7.7～6.9Ma相对干冷阶段,其变化可能受到全球温度变化的影响,气候转型主要导致了该区沉积相和沉积物色度的变化。     

北祁连加里东期俯冲-增生楔结构及动力学

北祁连加里东朝俯冲-增生楔可分为浅部和深部两个单元。浅部单元主要由蛇绿岩、蛇绿混杂岩及深海复理石所组成,极浅变质或没有变质。深部单元主要由HP/LT蓝片岩、透镜状的蛇纹岩、变辉长岩及绿片岩(主要为退变质产物)所组成。普遍遭受HP/LT变质作用和绿片岩相的退变质作用。两个单元同时形成于不同的构造层次,具有类似的原岩特征。在加里东期,俯冲-增生楔共经历4期变形作用(D₁,D₂,D₃,D₄)和3期变质作用(M₁,M₂,M₃).从D₁→D₄反映了俯冲-增生楔从俯冲作用→深部构造板底垫托作用→折返(构造顶蚀)→剥蚀的动力学演化过程。     

二维小波变换与中值滤波联合去噪方法研究

由于随机噪声是一种频带较宽的干扰波,因此依靠单一的去噪处理方式往往难以获得清晰反映目标体的地震信息。小波变换能够较好的去除高斯噪声,保留有效波中、高频成分,提高记录的信噪比,但去除脉冲噪声的效果却并不理想;中值滤波具有良好的边缘保持特性,虽低频去噪声效果有限,但去除脉冲噪声效果明显。因此可利用二维小波变换与中值滤波优势互补的方法,进行叠前去噪处理,达到去除宽频随机噪声的目的。首先运用二维小波变换的理论,采用自适应门限阀值方法进行去噪,同时结合中值滤波方法联合去噪。模型与实际数据的应用效果表明,联合去噪方法可有效压制噪声能量、保留高频有效信号、提高地震记录信噪比与分辨率。

Tectonic controls on metamorphism, partial melting, and intrusion: timing and duration of regional metamorphism and magmatism in the Ni de Massif, Turkey

Mafic high-pressure granulite, eclogite and pyroxenite xenoliths have been collected from a Mesozoic volcaniclastic diatreme in Xinyang, near south margin of the Sino-Korean Craton (SKC). The high-pressure granulite xenoliths are mainly composed of fine-grained granoblasts of Grt+Cpx+Pl+Hbl±Kfs±Q±Ilm with relict porphyritic mineral assemblage of Grt+Cpx±Pl±Rt. P–T estimation indicates that the granoblastic assemblage crystallized at 765–890 °C and 1.25–1.59 GPa, corresponding to crustal depths of ca. 41–52 km with a geotherm of 75–80 mW/m². Calculated seismic velocities (V_p) of high-pressure granulites range from 7.04 to 7.56 km/s and densities (D) from 3.05 to 3.30 g/cm³. These high-pressure granulite xenoliths have different petrographic and geochemical features from the Archean mafic granulites. Elevated geotherm and petrographic evidence imply that the lithosphere of this craton was thermally disturbed in the Mesozoic prior to eruption of the host diatreme. These samples have sub-alkaline basaltic compositions, equivalent to olivine– and quartz–tholeiite. REE patterns are flat to variably LREE-enriched (La_N/Yb_N=0.98–9.47) without Eu anomaly (Eu/Eu*=0.95–1.11). They possess 48–127 ppm Ni and 2–20 ppm Nb with Nb/U and La/Nb ratios of 13–54 and 0.93–4.75, respectively, suggesting that these high-pressure granulites may be products of mantle-derived magma underplated and contaminated at the base of the lower crust. This study also implies that up to 10 km Mesozoic lowermost crust was delaminated prior to eruption of the Cenozoic basalts on the craton.
