Stretching characteristics and its dynamic significance of the northern continental margin of South China Sea

To investigate the thinning of the whole crust, and the contribution of the upper versus lower crust to the stretching since Cenozoic, we calculated the stretching factor of the northern margin of South China Sea with data such as whole crustal thickness, depth of Cenozoic sedimentary basement and the horizontal displacement of faults. An isometric line drawing on whole crustal stretching factor is then obtained. Along the seismic Line 1530 in Baiyun sag, we also calculated the stretching factors of the upper and lower crust. The results suggest that the whole crustal thickness decreases seaward while the whole crustal stretching factor increases from shelf to slope. The Moho upwells highest beneath where the crust is thinned most. The value of the whole crustal stretching factor ranges from 1.5 to 6. Two areas were thinned intensely: the center of Yinggehai Basin, and the Baiyun sag in the Pearl River Mouth Basin. The calculation of the upper and lower crustal stretching factors from DSP1530 in Baiyun sag shows that the original crust of Baiyun sag should be thinned before deformation. Its pre-Cenozoic evolution as well as tectonic position during Cenozoic might be responsible for that.

南堡凹陷新近系馆陶组砂岩地球化学、构造背景和物源探讨

对南堡凹陷馆陶组(粉)砂岩的主量、微量及稀土元素的地球化学特征研究表明：多数主量元素含量中等,SiO₂、Al₂O₃等主元素含量及其相关比值反映大多数砂岩属于岩屑砂岩和长石砂岩,个别为杂砂岩;镁铁族元素(Co,Cr,Ni,Sc,V)和大离子亲石元素(Rb,Cs,Ba,Sr)含量类似于上地壳。砂岩十分相似的REE分布模式显示了相似的物源和构造背景。SiO₂-K₂O/Na₂O图解、主元素双变量判别图解及Th-Sc-Zr/10和Th-Co-Zr/10等构造背景判别图解均表明,馆陶组物源区属于活动大陆边缘构造背景。根据主元素物源判别方程图、La/Sc-Co/Th和Th-Hf-Co图投影及(Gd/Yb)_N值,表明馆陶组物源主要来自由长英质岩石组成的后太古宙上陆壳。通过与燕山地区不同时代(期)中酸性火山岩和花岗岩REE的对比,表明母岩主要来自燕山褶皱带地区于燕山期发育的中酸性火山岩和/或花岗岩体。     

大民屯凹陷超压发育机制及其成藏意义

沉积盆地超压具多样性,超压演化具系统性,超压的发育受多种因素控制。大民屯凹陷构造沉降史、沉积埋藏史、热史及生烃史等多种因素与剩余压力演化史有着良好的耦合匹配关系。压实不均衡和生烃作用分别是本区超压发育、演化不同阶段的主控因素。超压提供了油气运移的动力和通道,提高了高分子量组分,特别是“蜡”的排出效率是泥岩穿刺构造的诱发因素,亦可作为下伏油气藏的优质盖层,为本区油气富集成藏的有利保障。     

东营凹陷热流体活动及其对水-岩相互作用的影响

从气体地球化学、有机质热变、包裹体均一温度、古地温梯度、成岩矿物、重金属元素和岩浆活动等方面证实了东营凹陷发生了大量的热流体活动.热流体主要沿活动性较强的深大断裂运移至浅部, 并以侧向强迫对流为主, 同时具有多期次活动的特点.热流体通过改变温度场和地温梯度以及带入一些无机物质, 导致水-岩相互作用强度和类型的差异.      

渤中坳陷超压-构造活动联控型流体流动与油气快速成藏

渤中坳陷是东营组沉积期及其之后渤海湾盆地沉降-沉积速率最高的地区, 亦是晚期断裂活动最强烈的地区.较高的沉降-沉积速率产生了重要的成藏物质效应: (1) 持续的较快速沉降-沉积使东营组发育较深湖-深湖相泥岩并成熟, 从而使渤中坳陷发育沙河街组和东营组2套有效源岩; (2) 较高的沉降-沉积速率引起的压实不均衡及伴生的源岩快速生烃引起较强的超压, 超压对有机质热演化的抑制作用使沙河街组源岩生、排烃滞后, 从而使沙河街组和东营组在晚期同时保持在较有利的生、排油阶段, 这是渤中坳陷油气资源丰富和油气晚期快速成藏的物质基础.较强的超压和强烈的断裂活动决定了超压-构造活动联控型流体流动, 进而决定了油气幕式快速成藏过程和油气分布: 油气主要富集于新近系, 新构造运动控制油气分布      

对松辽盆地钱家店凹陷铀成矿作用的重新认识

钱家店凹陷中的含矿层位主要为上白垩统姚家组,前人认为其中的红色砂岩为原生成因,但大量的证据证实砂岩原生应以灰色为主,红色砂岩为后生氧化蚀变造成,并控制着钱家店铀矿床铀矿化的产出。在此基础上建立该矿床的后生蚀变分带,依次为红色蚀变带、黄色蚀变带、灰白色蚀变带、过渡带、原生带,红色蚀变带为主要的氧化带,铀矿化主要集中在过渡带。平面上铀矿化主要分布于层间氧化带前锋线附近的位置,并在氧化舌状体的前端和两个氧化舌状体之间存在铀的富集。文章最后还建立了该矿床的成矿模式,并对区域上层间氧化带的展布进行了讨论。

基于大量的薄片及岩心观察,运用电镜扫描、X射线衍射、物性分析、铸体压汞等手段,对寒武-奥陶系碳酸盐岩储层进行了研究,探讨了成岩作用特征及孔隙演化模式.表明灰岩和白云岩为碳酸盐岩储层的主要岩石类型,以孔、缝、洞为主要储集空间,由于受连通性以及充填作用的影响,构造裂缝的储集性能更为优越.储层基质孔隙差,白云石化作用、溶蚀作用、压实和压溶作用、胶结及充填作用以及构造作用为区内主要的成岩作用类型.碳酸盐岩孔隙演化主要经历了两个阶段:早期原生孔隙形成与收缩阶段、中晚期的次生缝、孔、洞发育与充填阶段;早期碳酸盐岩沉积时孔隙大,经初期成岩和埋藏后,失去了主要孔渗性能;中晚期的次生缝、孔、洞十分发育,但充填严重,晚期的构造缝及溶蚀孔、洞被部分保存.     

Dynamics Analysis of the Baiyun Sag in the Pearl River Mouth Basin,North of the South China Sea

The Baiyun sag is a deep one developing on the slope of the Pearl River Mouth Basin. It occurs as a composite graben horizontally, and is composed of two sub-sags versus one low uplift. Vertically, the sedimentary architecture could be divided into three layers, i.e. the faulted layer on the bottom, the faulted-ductile stretching layer in the middle and the draping layer on the top. The main rifting stage of the sag is supposed to be characterized by ductile extension and thinning of the crust. The special deformation pattern is probably attributed to the fact that the Baiyun sag is located in the transfer zone of the pre-existing weak zone, which made the sag a strongly deformed area, characterized by the greatly thinned lithosphere and active magmatism. The highly rising mantle under the Baiyun sag should be an important mechanism responsible for the ductile deformation, which caused partial melting of the upper mantle. Upweiling to the upper crust and the sedimentary layers, the partial melting materials accommodated extensional strain and caused non-faulted vertical subsidence. Magma was collected under the transfer zone after the first stage of rifting, and transferred laterally in a direction perpendicular to the extension to the ENE and WSW parts of the sag and upwelled along the NW-trending basal faults, where WNW-trending shear faults developed in swarms. The faulting activity and sedimentation history of the Baiyun sag may have been affected by the ocean ridge jump around 24 Ma and the cessation of sea floor spreading around 16 Ma.
