Origin of abundant moonmilk deposits in a subsurface granitic environment

Subsurface granitic environments are scarce and poorly investigated. A multi‐disciplinary approach was used to characterize the abundant moonmilk deposits and associated microbial communities coating the granite walls of the 16th Century Paranhos spring water tunnel in Porto city (north‐west Portugal). It is possible that this study is the first record of moonmilk in an urban subsurface granitic environment. The morphology and texture, mineralogical composition, stable isotope composition and microbial diversity of moonmilk deposits have been studied to infer the processes of moonmilk formation. These whitish secondary mineral deposits are composed of very fine needle‐fibre calcite crystals with different morphologies and density. Calcified filaments of fungal hyphae or bacteria were distinguished by field emission scanning electron microscopy. Stable isotope analysis revealed a meteoric origin of the needle‐fibre calcite, with an important contribution of atmospheric CO ₂, soil respiration and from weathering of Ca‐bearing minerals. The DNA ‐based analyses revealed the presence of micro‐organisms related to urban contamination, including Actinobacteria, mainly represented by Pseudonocardia hispaniensis , Thaumarchaeota and Ascomycota, dominated by Cladosporium . This microbial composition is consistent with groundwater pollution and contamination sources of the overlying urban area, including garages, petrol stations and wastewater pipeline leakage, showing that the Paranhos tunnel is greatly perturbed by anthropogenic activities. Whether the identified micro‐organisms are involved in the formation of the needle‐fibre calcite or not is difficult to demonstrate, but this study evidenced both abiotic and biogenic genesis for the calcite moonmilk in this subsurface granitic environment.

内蒙古中部乌拉山地区西沙德盖岩体地球化学-年代学特征及其地质意义

内蒙古乌拉山地区西沙德盖岩体位于哈达门沟钼矿田范围内,大地构造位置处于华北克拉通北缘西段,岩性为正长花岗岩。地球化学特征表现为高硅(SiO2质量分数为7408%~7595%)、富钾(K2O/Na2O值为120~339)、富碱(K2O+Na2O为703%~846%)、弱过铝质(Al2O3的质量分数为1122%~1306%,A/CNK的值为1002~1284),里特曼指数指示为钙碱性;轻稀土富集,重稀土亏损(LREE/HREE为1984~2783),Eu明显亏损(δEu为036~053);微量元素富集Rb、Th、U、Pb、Zr、Hf、Sm等,亏损Ba、Ta、P、Ti,高场强元素Nb、Sr含量偏低,具有陆壳改造型花岗岩特征。利用LA ICP MS对西沙德盖岩体进行定年,22个锆石206Pb/ 238 U年龄统计权重平均值为(231±08) Ma,指示该岩体形成于中三叠世。根据成矿年龄与成岩年龄的对比,成岩与成矿作用均发生于中三叠世末,成矿年龄略小于成岩年龄,属印支期岩浆活动的产物。根据已有年龄资料进行归纳和分析,认为区内在印支期曾发生过重要的构造-岩浆成矿事件。

Genesis of Tertiary Magnetite–Apatite Deposits,Southeast of Zanjan,Iran

Magnetite–apatite deposits in the Alborz volcano–plutonic belt, southeast Zanjan, in Iran, have blade, lenzoid, and vein forms, which extend in an E‐W direction. There are many magnetite–apatite veins and veinlets in this region, and some of them are economically important, such as Zaker, Morvarid, Sorkheh–Dizaj, and Aliabad. The sizes of the vein orebodies vary between 2 and 16 m in width, 10–100 m in length, and 5–40 m in depth. Microscopic examination of thin sections and polishes indicate that they are composed of magnetite and apatite, with minor amounts of goethite, hematite, actinolite, quartz, muscovite–illite, talc, dolomite, and calcite. The geochemistry and mineralogy of the granitic host rock reveals that it is calc‐alkaline and I‐type. Field observations, mineral paragenesis, the composition of the orebodies, and the composition of the fluid inclusions in the apatite minerals with low salinity (less than 20 wt.% NaCl equivalent) indicate that these magnetite veins were hydrothermally generated at about 200–430°C and are not related to silica–iron oxide immiscibility, as are the major Precambrian magnetite deposits in central Iran.     

内蒙古额济纳旗珠斯楞海尔罕北矿段锌铅金银铜矿矿床地质特征及其找矿潜力分析

内蒙古额济纳旗珠斯楞海尔罕矿区锌、铅、金、银、铜矿赋存于二叠纪花岗闪长岩、花岗斑岩与围岩的内接触带之中,属于中-低温热液矿床。二叠纪花岗闪长岩为矿体的形成提供了热源和物源,北西向的断裂构造则为花岗斑岩的侵入和成矿热液提供了通道。在珠斯楞海尔罕矿区及其邻区,发现类似的二叠纪岩浆活动以及断裂构造。因此,该地区可能发育类似成因的锌、铅、金、银、铜矿,具有良好的成矿潜力。

华熊地块中生代岩浆作用的物质继承性

中生代是华熊地块最重要的岩浆作用时期。通过对其中主要地体中燕山期改造型花岗岩和同熔型花岗岩的同位素研究,结合其形成物质背景和地质特征,认为它们的物质特征主要取决于它们继承各自不同的地体物质(特别是基底物质)和同一地体物质的多少程度。地体及其中生代岩浆作用的构造环境是解释这一继承机理的主要因素。     

滇西腾冲地区勐连花岗岩体南段LA-ICP-MS 锆石U-Pb定年及其构造意义

高黎贡构造带属于冈底斯地块东缘,滇西高黎贡花岗岩是冈底斯构造活动重要的岩浆记录。对高黎贡构造带的勐连花岗岩体南段的蒲川花岗岩地球化学特征进行的研究表明,蒲川花岗岩主要属于钙碱性-高钾钙碱性花岗岩,并表现出较强的过铝质特点;稀土元素配分模式曲线均表现为向右陡倾的LREE富集模式,具较弱的Eu负异常;花岗岩具后碰撞的特征,形成于主碰撞之后地壳向后碰撞-陆内转换的构造环境。LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb定年表明,蒲川花岗岩形成于早白垩世（128.9Ma±2.4Ma）,年龄、地球化学特征与高黎贡构造带北部和中部一致,其形成可能是滇西怒江带碰撞作用的岩浆响应。
