内蒙东七一山碱长花岗岩及其成矿作用

碱长花岗岩在国内外普遍以含多金属元素、特别是稀有金属矿化为特征,该类矿化岩体在我国多分部在华南褶皱系,而产出在内蒙西部的东七一山碱长花岗岩是我国北方地区少见的一个大型稀有金属矿化体,由于前人工作不多,对其认识较浅。本文在前人工作基础上,对其岩石学、成矿学及成岩、成矿机制等方面做了较多细致、深入的工作,表明该岩体是一个壳源岩浆直接分异演化而成的碱长花岗岩体,岩体除铷含量较高外,其中的铌－钽也有很高的利用价值,碱长花岗岩还是钨、锡、铍资源的源泉,同时派生出的大型萤石矿和文石－方解石矿产也有很高的经济价值,从而大大提高了对东七一山碱长花岗岩成岩、成矿实践和理论认识,这对在区域上扩大与这类岩体有关的找矿工作具有重要指导意义。     

东营凹陷碎屑岩储层长石溶蚀、Al迁移富集特征

成岩作用过程中骨架颗粒长石的溶蚀淋滤是碎屑岩储层形成次生孔隙的重要作用。长石在溶蚀反应中Al元素的活动性最低,只有在流体动力较强的条件下Al才发生迁移作用,长石溶蚀反应中高岭石的形成与分布受控于Al的迁移富集能力。因此研究成岩元素Al在流体中迁移富集特征对于储层评价具有重要意义。运用铸体薄片、扫描电镜以及粉晶衍射等分析测试技术,对东营凹陷碎屑岩储层的成岩特征进行了研究,结果在镜下可见研究区长石溶蚀以及Al的迁移富集特征明显。通过斜长石溶蚀形成高岭石的化学反应方程式,对比反应前后斜长石含量的变化,对河140井2 9213~2 9258 m深度段的砂岩进行了理论高岭石含量的计算。这种理论计算结果和实际形成高岭石含量曲线的差异,说明相对开放体系里长石溶蚀产物Al发生了微观的迁移富集作用。通过研究牛庄凹陷砂岩夹层中高岭石的含量分布特征,发现在砂泥岩界面靠近砂体一侧出现高岭石的富集,说明长石溶蚀产物Al在一定的流体动力条件下发生了迁移富集。研究区储层中长石溶解后形成高岭石,且其分布基本上受流体活动活跃的砂/泥岩界面位置和岩石物性控制。以钠长石和钾长石溶蚀形成高岭石和石英为例,对成岩反应前后岩石的体积变化进行了理论计算,结果表明如果长石溶解产物Al没有发生较大尺度的迁移,那么长石溶蚀后几乎相等体积的次生矿物将会沉淀充填孔隙。对于碎屑岩储层,次生孔隙发育的岩相学特征只能说明砂岩骨架颗粒发生了溶蚀作用、引起了孔隙重新分布、增加了砂体的非均质性,不足以说明砂岩孔隙度是否会真正提高。同时高岭石含量不能作为有效次生孔隙发育的标志,只有在Al发生迁移净输出之后,才能真正提高储集层的物性。     

Hydrothermal alteration of plagioclase in granitic rocks from Proterozoic basement of SE Sweden

Petrographic examinations and electron microprobe analyses of Proterozoic granitic rocks, SE Sweden aimed to characterize and unravel the mechanisms and conditions of plagioclase alterations. These alterations include saussuritization, albitization and replacement of plagioclase by K‐feldspar. The hydrothermal alterations, which are inferred to have occurred at ca. 250–400°C, resulted in concomitant formation of Al‐rich titanite, epidote, calcite, pumpellyite, prehnite and iron oxides. Replacement of plagioclase by K‐feldspar occurs in red‐stained zones, which have developed close to thin fractures owing to the precipitation of tiny Fe‐oxide pigment particles within the altered plagioclase, whereas saussuritized plagioclase has less systematic spatial relationships to these fractures. Albitization of plagioclase occurred in rocks that are poor in biotite compared to rocks that suffered extensive saussuritization. The chemical and textural characterization of various types of plagioclase alterations allows elucidation of the granitic hydrothermal systems. Features of feldspar alteration in the granitic rocks are similar to those encountered in feldspathic sandstones and should hence be considered in studies on diagenetic changes of siliciclastic successions during basin evolution.
