瓮安杉树坳铝土矿地质及地球化学特征研究

铝土矿是贵州省的优势矿种之一,但黔南地区铝土矿研究相对薄弱。本文以瓮安杉树坳铝土矿为研究对象,展开了地质特征及地球化学特征等方面的系统研究工作。结果发现:Li、Sc、Ga含量最高依次在铝土岩、碎屑状铝土矿、炭质泥岩和劣质煤层中,最低均为含黄铁矿或硫铁矿的粘土岩。同时,对"三稀"元素和主量元素之间的关系进行研究,得知Al_2O_3、TiO_2及Sc整体具有相似的变化规律,而SiO_2、Fe_2O_3、Li及Ga,局部具有相似的变化特征。随着铝含量的增加,碎屑状铝土矿中Al_2O_3、TiO_2、Sc具有相似的变化特征,演变至土状—半土状铝土矿中Al_2O_3、TiO_2、Ga具有相似的变化特征的现象。     

Discovery and Genetic Mechanism of Basic Granulite in the Altay Orogenic Belt, Xinjiang, NW China

Altay granulite (AG), which represents the product of high-grade metamorphism in the lower crust, was newly found in the Wuqiagou area, Fuyun County in the Altay orogenic belt, Northwest China. It is composed mainly of hypersthene, augite, basic plagioclase, amphibole and brown biotite. Its mineral compositions of amphibole and biotite are rich in Mg/(Mg+Fe2+) and Ti. Geochemically, the AG is enriched in Mg/(Mg+Fe2+) and A12O3, and poor in CaO, with depletion of U, Th, K and Rb contents. Furthermore, geochemical data reflect that the protolith of the AG is igneous-genetic calc-alkaline basalt formed under an island arc environment. The AG has ZREE of 92.38-96.58 ppm and enriched LREE model with weak positive Eu anomaly of 1.09-1.15. In the MORB normalized spider diagram, the AG shows tri-doming pattern with a strong negative Nb anomaly and medium negative P and Ti anomalies, reflecting that the AG has tectonic relation with subduction or subduction-related materials.

Modeling humic acids transport in a bauxite profile: Los Pijiguaos, Venezuela

Los Pijiguaos bauxite deposit is located in Southern Venezuela, in a tropical rain forest environment. Among the various impurities during the bauxite processing (Bayer process), organic matter compounds present in Bayer liquor can slow the rate of alumina precipitation, and reduce product yield and quality. Soil samples were taken from a 37-m-deep core and the distribution of organic carbon (OC) was investigated as well as its relationship with major oxides Al₂O₃, Fe₂O₃, SiO₂ and with the mineral phases gibbsite, hematite, kaolinite and quartz. Each sample was subjected to an adsorption process of humic acids by interaction with solutions of known concentrations. Maximum adsorption capacity was also studied in each mineral separately, which allowed calculation of the theoretical adsorption capacity of each soil sample. Even if concentrations of OC were higher in the first 5 m of the profile (0.2–0.5%), samples exhibited a low adsorption capacity (0.02%), while at depth between 10 and 37 m, samples showed lower OC concentrations (0.03–0.05%), and a larger OC adsorption capacity (0.08%). The model for the adsorption capacity only works between 10 and 30 m of depth, since in the first 10 m the bauxitic profile seems to be saturated in OC, because the concentration of OC is higher than the maximum predicted by adsorption experiments.     

赤峰东部宝音图群斜长角闪岩锆石U-Pb年龄及地质意义

宝音图群是华北地台北缘最古老的结晶基底之一。赤峰东部宝音图群的斜长角闪岩中锆石晶型、背散射图像及低Th/U比值、高Hf、低Nb、Ta、低Nb/Ta比值等特征说明其为变质锆石。采用LA-ICP-MS 锆石U-Pb测年技术,对变质锆石进行了同位素年代学研究,获得了宝音图群的变质年龄为1860.1±7.9 Ma,此年龄限定了宝音图群的形成时代应早于1860 Ma,说明宝音图群应该形成于此年龄之前的古元古代。这一变质年龄所代表的变质事件与华北地台古元古代变质事件相一致,说明宝音图群为华北地台的一部分。以斜长角闪岩主量、微量及稀土元素为依据,进行原岩恢复及构造环境判别,结果显示斜长角闪岩原岩是形成于活动陆缘岛弧环境的钙碱性玄武岩。

Geological,geochemical and mineralogical features of some bauxite deposits from Nurra (Western Sardinia,Italy): insights on conditions of formation and parental affinity

Bauxite deposits are widespread in NW Sardinia. They formed during the middle Cretaceous, in consequence of a period of emergence of the Mesozoic carbonate shelf. In the Nurra area the geometries derived by the Middle Cretaceous tectonic phases controlled the ore typologies. Two bauxite profiles, laying on different bedrocks, were sampled. The bauxitization proceeded from the surface downward, with the accumulation of Al₂O₃ and residual ‘immobile’ elements (Al, Ti, HFSE), and corresponding mobility and loss of SiO₂ and Fe₂O₃. Epigenetic kaolinite formed close to faults and joints, probably as a result of silicification, introduced by low temperature hydrothermal solutions. Rare earth elements, especially LREE, are concentrated in Fe-rich bauxite horizons, probably due to scavenging by goethite. REE-enrichment is not observed in the boehmite-rich horizons. Very high REE contents are observed in a Fe-depleted horizon due to the occurrence of REE accessory minerals, probably of the bastnäsite group. Conservative indices, including TiO₂/Al₂O₃ and Ti/Cr ratios, and Eu anomalies (Eu/Eu*), suggest that the deposits formed by weathering of sediments derived from mafic rocks of the Hercynian basement. This, in turn, implies that the basement was exposed during middle Cretaceous.

Mineralogical and geochemical evolution of the Bidgol bauxite deposit,Zagros Mountain Belt,Iran: Implications for ore genesis,rare earth elements fractionation and parental affinity

The present study focuses on the Late Cretaceous Bidgol bauxite deposit in the Zagros Simply Fold Belt, SW Iran. The orebody is located in the eroded major NW–SE trending Koh-e-Hosseyn anticline and hosted as discontinuous stratified layers and lenses within the upper member of the Cenomanian–Turonian Sarvak Formation. Detailed mineralogical analysis reveals that diaspore, hematite, goethite, anatase, clinochlore, chamosite, and calcite are the major mineral components accompanied by minor amounts of detrital and REE-bearing minerals such as rutile, zircon and parisite. The ore texture suggest that the bauxite material has an authigenic origin but in some parts it has been transported short distances from a primary in situ environment and redeposited in karstic depressions. The spheroidal pisolites of the Bidgol bauxite formed under conditions of low water activity, favouring the formation of large diaspore cores and a single dry-to-wet climatic fluctuation. The mass change calculations relative to the immobile element Ti show that elements such as Si, Fe, Mg, K, Na and Sr are leached out of the weathered system; Al, Ni, Zr, Ga, Cr and Ba are concentrated in the residual system; and Hf, Ta, Co, Rb, Cs, Be, and U are relatively immobile during the bauxitisation processes. The Nb, Th, Y, V, Sc, Sn and ΣREE are relatively immobile in the initial stage of bauxitisation processes in the bauxite ores, but were slightly mobile at the later stage of bauxitisation. Geochemical data reveal progressive enrichment of the REE and intense LREE/HREE fractionation toward the lower parts of the bauxite profile. Cerium behaves differently from the other REEs (especially LREE) and show positive anomalies in the upper horizons that gradually become negative in the deeper parts of the profile. The distribution and fractionation of trace elements and REEs during the bauxitisation process in the Bidgol deposit are mainly controlled by the presence of REE-bearing minerals, fluctuations in soil solution pH, REE ionization potential and the presence of bicarbonates or organic matter. Geochemical analyses confirm a protolith contribution from the bedrock argillaceous limestone and suggest that the source material for the Bidgol bauxite was provided from a siliciclastic material derived from a continental margin. The mid-Turonian uplift led to the formation of karstic topography, rubbly breccia and a layer of ferruginous–argillaceous debris that was affected by lateritic weathering under humid tropical climate. Subsequently, mobile elements are removed from the profiles, while Al, Fe and Ti are enriched, resulting in the formation of the pristine bauxite materials. When the platform subsided into the water again, the pristine bauxitic materials were partly converted to bauxite. During the exposure of bauxite orebodies on the limbs and crests of anticlines and subsequent eroding and accumulation in the karstic depressions during folding and faulting in Oligocene–Miocene, important factors such as intensity of the weathering, drainage and floating flow may have improved the qualities of the bauxite ores.
