大别—苏鲁超高压变质带内部的浅变质岩

大别苏鲁超高压变质带内部零星出露有若干呈构造残片状产出的浅变质岩，主要以变质碎屑岩－千枚岩－大理岩组合为代表，遭受过低绿片岩相变质和脆－韧性变形作用的改造，与围岩均为构造接触（断层或韧性剪切带）。微古生物化石研究表明，其原岩为震旦纪前后扬子板块北缘的浅海相沉积。同位素年代学研究指示，它们经历过加里东期和印支期构造热事件的影响，与区域超高压岩石经受的构造热事件时间一致；氧同位素研究得到，部分浅变质岩原岩曾遭受过高温大气降水热液蚀变，与区域超高压岩石经受的构造热事件时间一致；氧同位素研究得到，部分浅变质岩原岩曾遭受过高温大气降水热液蚀变，与区域超高压岩石的同位素特征一致。这些浅变质岩的原岩为扬子板块北缘震旦系沉积岩及其中的火山碎屑岩，构造上具有板块俯冲过程中的刮削岩片－构造加积楔的产状和形成机制，因此可以是大陆板块俯冲加积楔的一部分。     

成都平原第四纪化石冰楔的发现及古气候意义

最近,在成都平原西缘,大邑城西氮肥厂附近,斜江河西岸,上新统-下更新统大邑砾岩剖面的北端新开挖的露头上,发现了4条化石冰楔。这里的地理坐标是30°35'N103°31'E,海拔530m.这些冰楔发育于大邑砾岩露头的顶部。其中最大的一条,顶部宽3m,向下延伸2.5m.这些冰楔垂直向下延伸,与大邑砾岩层面斜交。所以,它们是在大邑砾岩沉积之后并经过构造变动后形成的,是大邑砾岩的后生冰楔。化石冰楔的充填物的特征与大邑砾岩有明显差别:前者为棕黄色,后者为灰白-黄色;前者砾径分选较好,砾径较细,一般长5cm~15cm,而后者砾径分选较差,粗大者20cm~30cm;前者的砾石含量高,约95%,后者的砾石含量低,约85%;前者砾石ab面产状无优势方向,而后者的ab面产状显示优势方向,倾向170°~210°,倾角30°~40°.由于两者有上述差别,所以,化石冰楔在露头上可以被识别出来。采用ESR法测定冰楔充填物的时代为0.171Ma.由此看来,这些冰楔的形成时代可能相当于V28-238深海岩心氧同位素曲线第6气候期(0.195Ma~0.128Ma),也可与中国黄土L_2~5(0.195Ma~0.180Ma)和L_2~4(0.180Ma~0.167Ma)所记录的气候波动和青藏高原倒数第二次冰期对比。
一般认为,冰楔是多年冻土的指示器,所以这些化石冰楔反映了成都平原在第四纪曾一度发育多年冻土。据研究,冰楔只能形成于年均温<-6℃的地方,高海拔多年冻土下界大致与-2℃~-4℃年均等温线相符。现今,大邑附近年均温约16℃.那么,化石冰楔形成时期,成都平原年均温至少比现今下降了18℃.      

前陆褶皱冲断带冲起构造发育特征:基于砂箱构造物理模拟实验研究

冲起构造广泛发育于挤压逆冲构造体系和走滑构造体系,具有极其重要的油气勘探价值,因而备受关注。砂箱模拟模型已经被证明是强大的可视化工具,用来模拟不同岩层中复杂的构造现象。基于相似初始砂箱构造模型条件下不同挤压速率(0.3 mm/s、0.1 mm/s、0.005 mm/s)变形过程,揭示出褶皱冲断带发育过程中的典型两类冲起构造：叠加冲起构造和单一冲起构造,它们对于褶皱冲断带演化过程及其油气勘探具有明显不同的重要性。砂箱物理模拟实验揭示楔形体扩展变形序列对前陆褶皱冲断带冲起构造发育类别具有重要控制作用,即褶皱冲断带前缘以前展式扩展变形为主,主要发育单一冲起构造;后缘以后展式扩展变形为主,主要发育叠加冲起构造。     

Influence of discontinuities and clay minerals in their filling materials on the instability of rock slopes

To assess the influence of discontinuities and clay minerals in their filling materials on the instability of rock slopes, seven rock slopes along the margin of Ganjnameh–Shahrestaneh Road, Hamedan Province, Western Iran were selected, and the physical and mechanical properties of their rocks and discontinuities were determined. By statistical studies of the discontinuities, rock slope stability analysis has been performed using kinematic and limit equilibrium methods so that safety factors for the rock slopes can be calculated. Also, sampling of filling materials and X-ray diffraction tests have been done to identify the clay minerals in the filling materials. The lithologies of the studied rock slopes are granite, diorite and hornfels. The presence of discontinuities and weakness planes with different orientations and clay minerals in filling materials of discontinuities are effective factors that cause plane, wedge and toppling failures in the rock slopes. Clay minerals as filling materials of discontinuities in the studied rock slope facilitate their instability by two different methods. First, absorption of water by infilling clay minerals causes the friction angle of discontinuity surfaces that leads to plane and wedge failures to be reduced. Second, water absorption causes the swelling of clay infilling minerals that leads to toppling failure.     

通南巴背斜几何学、运动学与构造模型

通南巴背斜发育于四川盆地东北米仓山冲断构造带和大巴山弧形冲断构造带的构造叠合部位, 其形成与演化受到米仓山与大巴山的联合影响, 然而目前其变形特征以及变形机制认识尚且不清楚, 精细研究通南巴背斜构造几何学、运动学对于揭示背斜成因机制以及认识陆内构造变形具有积极作用.本文以覆盖通南巴背斜的三维地震资料为基础, 运用断层相关褶皱理论和平衡复原等方法, 精细刻画出通南巴背斜几何学与运动学特征, 并建立构造模型, 探讨其成因机制.研究表明, 通南巴背斜总体具有"东西分段、上下分层、早晚期构造叠加"的特征, 具体表现为: 1)受控于三叠系嘉陵江组膏盐滑脱层、志留系泥岩局部滑脱层以及前震旦系滑脱层, 通南巴背斜分为上、中、下、深4套构造层, 表现为多层滑脱变形特征, 其中, 中部构造层变形强度最大; 2)深部(前震旦系)构造楔发育于整个通南巴背斜, 其个数和几何学形态的变化直接影响了上覆背斜形态以及分段性背斜高点差异; 3)位移沿楔端点向前传递过程中, 受到川中刚性基底的阻挡, 背斜前翼旋转, 形成次级褶皱调节断层; 4)通南巴背斜晚期受大巴山向西南推覆挤压的叠加作用, 表现为中部构造层在东北段发育一系列双重构造和叠瓦构造, 并导致嘉陵江组以上地层被动变形褶皱.     

关于雅鲁藏布江缝合带(东段)的新认识

国内外不少地质学家大都将雅鲁藏布江蛇绿岩带视为印度板块与亚洲板块之间的缝合带。但是,笔者等在喜玛拉雅造山带的东段即仁布-康马一线以东地区的研究却发现,在雅鲁藏布江蛇绿岩带的南侧发育着一个宽大的增生杂岩体,它与雅江蛇绿岩是同一大洋即特提斯喜玛拉雅洋俯冲消减的产物,前者代表着特提斯喜玛拉雅洋消亡遗迹的主体,是印度板块与拉萨地块之间缝合带的主要组成部分;而后者代表的是俯冲带与拉萨地块之间的残余洋壳,它由北向南仰冲,构成日喀则-桑日弧前盆地前缘脊和南部基底,因而其不代表主缝合带。北喜玛拉雅增生杂岩体的发现改变了以Gansser(1964)为代表提出的喜玛拉雅造山带的构造模式,为重新审视印度板块与拉萨地块缝合作用过程提供了一个重要的地质制约和新的研究途径。

天山南麓库车坳陷西部沉积古近系膏盐岩,盐层下伏中生界发现万亿立方米储量天然气田,是我国西气东输重要气源。库车坳陷盐下是油气勘探关注目标,目前研究认识不能满足勘探需求,尤其是盐构造形成机制存在争议,盐构造平衡恢复是研究难点。本文应用二维构造平衡剖面技术,综合地震剖面、钻井和地表地质资料,选取库车坳陷西段四条剖面,通过StructureSolver公司开发的构造恢复软件(简称SS),开展平衡恢复工作,分层恢复盐上层、膏盐层、盐下层,复原挤压变形前地震剖面。研究结果揭示库车坳陷西段发育二期盐构造:渐新世-中新世发育刺穿型盐丘,上新世-第四纪发育挤压型盐构造。挤压作用下早期盐丘演变为盐席、盐墙,盐上层发育盐逆冲断层和盐背斜,盐下发育叠瓦状逆冲断层和挤压构造楔。库车坳陷西段盐层上覆冲积扇沉积(重力)差异负载是发育盐丘的原因,盐丘分布于山前冲积扇前端和却勒冲积扇南侧。库车坳陷盐下发育逆冲构造楔,应用临界楔理论研究构造楔顶面坡度与底部滑脱层角度变化,盐下构造楔顶面坡度突变,指示底部滑脱层角度发生变化,推断古生代基底正断层卷入逆冲构造楔。     

Structural architecture and low‐grade metamorphism of the Mikabu‐Northern Chichibu accretionary wedge,SW Japan

To understand tectono‐metamorphic processes within or close to the brittle–ductile transition of quartz‐rich crustal rocks in an accretionary wedge, an integrated field, petrological, geochronological and Raman spectroscopic study was conducted on the Mikabu‐Northern Chichibu belt in SW Japan. Field mapping in central Shikoku reveals that the Northern Chichibu belt is comprised of a pile of four tectono‐stratigraphic units, referred to as A, B, C and D units. The A unit (dominated by pelagic sedimentary rocks) represents the structurally lowest and youngest accretionary complex that forms a composite unit with the Mikabu ophiolitic suite. The B unit (consisting of chert‐clastic rock sequences) overlies the A unit and is overlain by the C and D units (mudstone‐matrix mélange units). Raman spectroscopy of carbonaceous material constrains the peak temperature of each unit to be ~290°C for the A unit, 270–290°C for the B unit, 230–250°C for the C unit and ~220°C for the D unit. Ductile deformation and pervasive metamorphism are limited to rocks in the Mikabu, A and B units. Alkali pyroxene and sodic amphibole occur in metabasite from the Mikabu, A and B units, and the widespread occurrence of prograde veins containing lawsonite+quartz pseudomorphs after laumontite was newly recognized from the C unit. Phase petrological data constrain the peak pressure of each unit to be ~0.65 GPa for the Mikabu‐A unit (aragonite stable), ~0.45–0.6 GPa for the B unit (jadeite+albite stable in the structurally lower part), and ~0.35 GPa for the C unit (prehnite+lawsonite stable). The peak metamorphic pressure increases towards structurally lower and younger accretionary complexes, but the thickness of the preserved strata is insufficient to account for the inferred pressure range. The structural–metamorphic relations imply thickening of the accretionary wedge by underplating was followed by a significant phase of thinning by both ductile and brittle processes.     

锦屏一级水电站左坝肩边坡数值模拟

锦屏一级水电站左岸边坡工程地质条件复杂,特别是由控制性软弱结构面切割形成的楔形体对左岸边坡的稳定性影响较大。工程中已采用系统预应力锚索支护和抗剪洞回填对楔形体进行加固处理。为了解两种支护措施及其施工工序对楔形坡稳定性的影响,采用数值模拟方法,对支护措施在不同工况条件下,边坡继续开挖进行模拟计算。通过不同工况数值模拟对比分析发现,系统锚索支护对限制塑性区发展起到了良好的效果,抗剪洞回填对限制楔形体底滑面的错动有非常明显的效果,及时进行锚索支护和回填抗剪洞是锦屏一级水电站左岸边坡在施工期乃至运行期间稳定运行的有力保证,通过控制性软弱结构面的位移变化趋势判断边坡稳定性是可行的。
