甘肃祁连山西段金矿分布特征及控矿因素分析

祁连西段是甘肃省重要的金成矿带,分布有鹰嘴山、寒山、阳凹大泉、车路沟、金湾子等金矿床,近年又新发现豹子沟南、滴水山、牛毛泉、积阴功台金矿,显示出较大的区域找矿潜力。本文通过典型金矿床和新发现金矿成矿地质条件分析,总结了甘肃祁连山西段金矿的空间分布特征、控矿因素。初步研究认为祁连山西段主要的金矿床呈带状分布于阿尔金走滑断裂与北祁连褶皱断裂构造带交汇部位,明显受不同规模、不同序次的韧、脆性断裂构造破碎带控制;成矿与区域内不同规模中酸性—中基性岩体及岩脉有关;古生代火山碎屑岩、浅变质碎屑岩为主要容矿岩性及含矿建造;矿体普遍具有延深大于延长、深部明显富集的特征。新发现金矿多以化探异常查证为重点,不断浓缩异常源,实现找矿突破。本文对祁连山西段的金矿勘查具有指导意义,对该地区的金矿研究也提供了重要的基础资料。     

云南个旧多金属矿石门坎—保和地区Sn、Sb元素的成矿信息识别与提取

石门坎—保和地区位于云南个旧多金属成矿区西南部,成矿背景复杂,成矿作用具有多期性和多样性。利用研究区1∶1万土壤化探数据,采用泛克里格法和因子分析相结合的方法,提取不同层次的成矿异常信息。结果表明:主因子F_3包含Mo-Au-Sb等元素,反映成矿过程中的岩体和热液相关信息;主因子F_4包含Sn-Bi-W元素,指示中低温热液矿化环境; Sb沿杨家田断裂呈串珠状分布,反映了由北东向构造控制的空间变化特征,与已知矿点对应良好; Sn元素异常在研究区北部呈双峰状环形分布,推测受隐伏岩体或者断层控制。根据元素组合异常F_3和F_4的分布规律,结合地质资料圈定出2个找矿靶区,为进一步找矿工作提供了方向。     

地震叠前反演方法预测页岩脆性指数在南川地区的应用

页岩气的有效开发依赖水平井的压裂效果,而页岩脆性是影响页岩压裂的关键因素。通过对比分析现有的3种脆性指数计算方法,即矿物脆性指数计算法、岩石力学脆性指数计算法、基于多元回归脆性指数计算法,优选基于多元回归的脆性指数计算法计算五峰—龙马溪组(简称龙马溪组)页岩储层脆性指数。以四川盆地东部南川地区龙马溪组海相页岩气为例,利用南川地区三维地震资料叠前反演方法,获取多元回归脆性指数计算方程所需的参数,预测页岩脆性指数。结果表明,在已有钻井矿物脆性指标约束下,叠前反演法计算的脆性指数平面预测效果较好,且与实际压裂数据具有较好的一致性,能够满足南川地区页岩气勘探开发的需要。

准噶尔腹部火山岩风化壳储层特征及其影响因素

文章通过大量岩芯、铸体薄片观察和测井资料分析,对准噶尔腹部石西石炭系火山岩风化壳储层进行了详细地研究。研究结果表明,该火山岩风化壳储层的储集空间主要有基质溶孔、气孔或杏仁体溶孔、角砾间溶孔、微裂缝和裂缝等,其中与裂缝连通的各类溶孔占主导地位;在岩石分布上以集块岩、条带状熔岩、角砾熔岩和致密凝灰岩为主,玄武岩、安山岩和流纹岩则相对较少;储层物性主要表现为高孔低渗,只有裂缝具有较高的渗透率,且裂缝以高角度缝和直立缝为主。研究还发现,岩性岩相、裂缝和风化淋滤作用是影响该风化壳储层的主要因素。区内油层主要聚中在构造高部位、靠近断裂带和有利岩相区域;油层分布在离石炭系风化壳顶面25~150 m的范围内。

采用TCLP法、内梅罗综合污染指数、嵌入Igeo综合污染指数法等方法对贵州织金县某煤矿区周边农田土壤重金属进行评价。土壤中Cd、Cr、Cu、Ni、Hg和Zn的含量范围分别为0.79～2.08 mg·kg-1、144.20～464.40 mg·kg-1、91.63～187.50 mg·kg-1、48.13～104.47 mg·kg-1、0.14～2.33 mg·kg-1、144.35～265.89 mg·kg-1,所有土壤样点的Cd、Cr、Cu和Ni含量均已超过国家土壤环境质量二级标准,部分土壤样点的Hg和Zn含量超过二级标准。TCLP法评价结果所有土壤样点均未受到重金属污染;内梅罗综合污染指数法评价结果为农田土壤重金属生态风险处于安全水平;嵌入Igeo综合污染指数法评价结果表明,90%的土壤达到中度污染以上,其中65%的土壤处于中度污染,25%的土壤受到中度至重度污染;潜在生态危害指数法评价表明,所有土壤样点重金属均处于轻微生态风险水平。针对不同评价方法得出的结果存在差异的情况,在评价土壤重金属污染状况时,应根据评价目标的差异选择合适的评价方法。      

Modelling coastal land use change by incorporating spatial autocorrelation into cellular automata models

This paper presents a spatial autoregressive (SAR) method-based cellular automata (termed SAR-CA) model to simulate coastal land use change, by incorporating spatial autocorrelation into transition rules. The model captures the spatial relationships between explained and explanatory variables and then integrates them into CA transition rules. A conventional CA model (LogCA) based on logistic regression (LR) was studied as a comparison. These two CA models were applied to simulate urban land use change of coastal regions in Ningbo of China from 2000 to 2015. Compared to the LR method, the SAR model yielded smaller accumulated residuals that showed a random distribution in fitting the CA transition rules. The better-fitting SAR model performed well in simulating urban land use change and scored an overall accuracy of 85.3%, improving on the LogCA model by 3.6%. Landscape metrics showed that the pattern generated by the SAR-CA model has less difference with the observed pattern.     

Use of LiDAR-derived DEM and a stream length-gradient index approach to investigation of landslides in Zagros Mountains,Iran

This paper presents an approach to stream length-gradient index analysis to identify tectonic signatures. The graded profile of the Dez River in Zagros Mountains, Iran, indicates that the area has been tectonically disturbed, and it triggers landslide hazards. The high-gradient index shows that a steeper gradient could be potentially a signature for landslides identification. The digital surface models acquired by airborne LiDAR were used in this study to generate the HRDEM. Our result shows a great potential for improving landslide investigations by implementing stream length-gradient index derived from the HRDEM in conjunction with the landslide inventories data-set in the GIS environment. We also identified a correlation between the stream length-gradient index and the graded topographic profile with slopes and landslides. This empirical approach was verified by geodata analytics and landslide inventories data-set in conjunction with field observations. This study has identified the locations of high-gradient indices with susceptible to landslides.     

Examining human heat stress with remote sensing technology

Heat stress as an environmental hazard which can seriously affect productivity, health, or even survival of individuals has long been studied. Despite the endeavors that have been made to address the issue quantitatively with various heat stress indices, they are often measured at scatter sites. This research devotes to revealing human heat stress within continuous space with remote sensing technology. The study began with the retrieval of dry-bulb temperature from land surface temperature (LST) with empirical models. As wet-bulb temperature was calculated from dry-bulb temperature and relative humidity, discomfort index (DI) as an indicator of heat stress was revealed for the study area at 1 km spatial resolution for three summer days. Results indicated that DI can be derived within continuous space with remotely sensed data, and its spatial distribution can be dramatically affected by relative humidity. Further comparison between DI and LST indicated that LST as a widely utilized indicator of surface thermal condition fails to address human heat stress as environmental factors such as relative humidity are not taken into account.     

The development and analysis of quasi-linear map projections

Map projections are an essential component of coordinate systems used in applications such as surveying, topographic mapping, and engineering, and care needs to be taken to select ones that minimize distortion for each case. This article explores the selection process for near-linear features on the surface of the Earth and derives limits for the extent of a project that can be projected within specified distortion tolerances. It is then demonstrated that a multifaceted set of projections of the Earth may be used to extend this concept to the mapping of features such as highways and railways that are quasi-linear but do not exactly follow a standard geometrical line (a great circle or a small circle) on the surface of the Earth. A continuous, conformal coordinate system may be derived in such situations, extending to indefinite length and applicable over a swath of several kilometers width, but it cannot be extended to cover situations with extensive variations in height. Instead, the Snake Projection is analyzed, and it is shown that this can be used to develop continuous (non-zonal) projected coordinate systems for major engineering projects extending for hundreds of kilometers and having extensive height ranges. Examples are shown of the application to railway projects.
