Coalbed Methane Enrichment Regularity and Major Control Factors in the Xishanyao Formation in the Western Part of the Southern Junggar Basin

There are abundant coal and coalbed methane(CBM)resources in the Xishanyao Formation in the western region of the southern Junggar Basin,and the prospects for CBM exploration and development are promising.To promote the exploration and development of the CBM resources of the Xishanyao Formation in this area,we studied previous coalfield survey data and CBM geological exploration data.Then,we analyzed the relationships between the gas content and methane concentration vs.coal seam thickness,burial depth,coal reservoir physical characteristics,hydrogeological conditions,and roof and floor lithology.In addition,we briefly discuss the main factors influencing CBM accumulation.First,we found that the coal strata of the Xishanyao Formation in the study area are relatively simple in structure,and the coal seam has a large thickness and burial depth,as well as moderately good roof and floor conditions.The hydrogeological conditions and coal reservoir physical characteristics are also conducive to the enrichment and a high yield of CBM.We believe that the preservation of CBM resources in the study area is mainly controlled by the structure,burial depth,and hydrogeological conditions.Furthermore,on the basis of the above results,the coal seam of the Xishanyao Formation in the synclinal shaft and buried at depths of 700-1000 m should be the first considered for development.     

吉林省中部大口钦地区营城组流纹岩地球化学特征

本文对吉林省中部大口钦地区营城组流纹岩进行了岩石学和地球化学研究,结果表明:流纹岩以富硅、贫钙、贫镁、贫铁为特征,在地球化学上具有典型A型流纹岩特征。在痕量元素组成上,富集LREE和LILE元素(如K、Rb、Th、U),亏损HREE和HFSE元素(如P、Ti),具强烈的负Eu异常。其原始岩浆来源于下地壳的部分熔融,形成于滨太平洋板块俯冲引起的加厚岩石圈拆沉后的伸展环境。     

黔北镇远牛蹄塘组黑色页岩沉积环境与有机质富集关系

通过矿物组分、主量元素、微量元素、碳氧同位素等特征,分析了黔北地区镇远县ZX井牛蹄塘组黑色页岩的岩相类型和不同岩相页岩的沉积环境及其与有机质富集间的关系。结果表明,牛蹄塘组下段以硅质页岩为主,TOC含量4. 96%~10. 10%;上段以富泥硅质页岩为主,TOC含量1. 43%~9. 04%。下段硅质页岩沉积于水流停滞的深水陆棚环境,沉积古水体为贫氧的还原状态;上段富泥硅质页岩沉积时期,仍为贫氧的还原环境,但水体滞留程度、还原性较下段硅质页岩沉积期弱。贫氧的还原环境是影响牛蹄塘组黑色页岩有机质富集的主要因素,热液作用和陆源碎屑对牛蹄塘组黑色页岩有机质富集的影响较小。     

豫西宜阳地区上二叠统孙家沟组古气候特征分析

二叠纪- 三叠纪之交发生了地史上最大规模的生物灭绝事件,该事件可能与当时气候环境的强烈变化有关。前人对该时期较连续的海相地层揭示的古气候研究较为成熟,而对同时期陆相地层的研究缺乏系统性,研究资料需要进一步完善。本文选取豫西宜阳地区上二叠统孙家沟组为研究对象,运用沉积学、矿物学与元素地球化学等方法对该时期的古气候进行恢复,并与同时期陆相地层对比,进而讨论气候变化对该时期生物灭绝的影响。结果表明：①宜阳地区孙家沟组经历了滨湖- 浅湖- 滨湖等亚相的演化过程,其地层中岩相变化、古生物化石缺失、大量的钙质结核及其它沉积构造的出现揭示了孙家沟组的上段气候明显比下段炎热干旱。②元素地球化学指标以及粘土矿物组合的垂向变化等指示了该时期的气候经历了温湿向炎热半干旱- 干旱转变。③宜阳地区孙家沟组的气候指标所得出的结论与其他地区同时期陆相地层古气候的变化基本一致,反映了研究区与同时期全球古气候的变化存在一致性。二叠纪末期温度的骤升、气候极度干旱化以及陆表生态系统遭受毁灭性破坏等因素,可能是导致或加速陆地生物灭绝的主要原因之一。本次研究对该时期气候变化与生物灭绝之间的关系具有一定的指导意义,为探讨全球P- T之交生物灭绝的原因提供新的证据。     

Geochemical study of the Neoproterozoic clastic sedimentary rocks of the Khambal Formation (Sindreth Basin), Aravalli Craton,NW Indian Shield: Implications for paleoweathering,provenance, and geodynamic evolution

Petrographic and geochemical studies characterize lithologies of the Khambal Formation deposited in the Sindreth Basin as arkosic, subarkosic, and quartzarenite. Weathering indices, such as CIA and CIW in conjunction with the ACNK diagram, prescribe mostly moderate chemical weathering with intermittent pulses of extreme weathering in the source area. The discrimination diagrams suggest that these Neoproterozoic clastics were deposited in an active rift basin. Provenance indicators of the detritus components point to a terrane possessing subordinate mafic material in conjunction with large felsic components. A comparison of immobile element ratios with probable source rocks suggest that the Mesoproterozoic Delhi arc situated to the east of the Sindreth Basin could be the possible source. Our mixing calculation defines the proportion of end member components in the Delhi arc. Geodynamic considerations relate the origin of the Sindreth Basin to the processes of disintegration and reassembly of supercontinents.

白音高老组火山岩在大兴安岭地区广泛分布,本文对大兴安岭中南部贺斯格乌拉牧场白音高老组酸性火山岩进行了锆石U-Pb年代学、岩石地球化学和Sr-Nd同位素分析,探讨其岩石成因及构造背景。位于大兴安岭中南段东乌旗地区的白音高老组火山岩,主要岩性为流纹岩、流纹质凝灰岩等,LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb年龄分别为129. 8±0. 8 Ma、128. 2±2. 8 Ma,属早白垩世早期;从岩石地球化学特征上看,其主量元素SiO_2含量68. 76%～76. 18%、Al_2O_3含量11. 84%～13. 38%,属高钾钙碱性岩石;稀土总量较高,(La/Yb)N 6,(La/Sm)_N 3,显示为轻稀土富集型,δEu显示负铕异常(0. 4～0. 6),微量元素以富集大离子亲石元素K、Rb、Ba,贫高场强元素Nb、P、Ti为特征; Sr-Nd同位素组成上具有低I_(Sr)、高ε_(Nd)(t)和低t_(DM)的特征(I_(Sr)=0. 7039～0. 7045,ε_(Nd)(t)=2. 65～4. 39)。火山岩浆来源于下地壳基性物质的部分熔融,综合研究并结合前人资料认为,白音高老组流纹岩形成于滨太平洋板块俯冲后伸展及蒙古-鄂霍次克洋闭合后的综合效应下。     

Re-evaluation of the Middle Pleistocene stratigraphy of Herefordshire,England

Lithostratigraphical analysis of remnants of high-level, poorly sorted gravel remnants in northeast Herefordshire has allowed the revision and expansion of the existing regional Middle Pleistocene stratigraphical sequence to incorporate two new formations. The oldest Pleistocene sediments in the region, the Humber Formation, represents part of a major, northerly derived, cold-stage fluvial system, which incorporated the ancestors of the rivers Lugg and Wye and tributaries of the Severn. The Risbury Formation consists of glacigenic sediments, which were deposited by a large ice-lobe emanating from a Welsh ice-cap. The Risbury Formation is correlated with glacigenic deposits in the Cradley Brook Valley on the west side of the Malvern Hills, which were formerly ascribed to a pre-Hoxnian, Severn Valley ice-sheet. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

滇西北剑川盆地新近系地层时代的新认识及构造意义

地处板块接触地带的滇西北剑川地区是研究新构造运动的重要场所。剑川盆地保留有较为完整的新生代地层,在1:250000地质图上,新生界自下而上为古新统勐野井组、始新统宝相寺组、渐新统金丝厂组、中新统双河组和上新统剑川组;其中双河组为一套含可采煤层的砂泥岩夹泥灰岩沉积,剑川组为一套火山-沉积岩组。近期的研究揭示双河组和剑川组均属始新世,但发表的年龄相互包含,并没有清楚的把两者分开。本文采用Ar-Ar和锆石U-Pb方法测试了双河组和剑川组顶、底凝灰岩的年龄,辅以岩体、岩脉的年龄,重新厘定了两个组的顶、底年龄。剑川组顶部凝灰岩锆石SHRIMP U-Pb年龄为34 Ma±;底部凝灰岩黑云母Ar-Ar坪年龄为36 Ma±,与底部侵入岩脉的锆石SHRIMP U-Pb年龄一致;中上部侵入岩脉的黑云母Ar-Ar坪年龄在34~36 Ma之间。同时,老君山岩体、玉召块岩体和沙帽山岩体的锆石SHRIMP U-Pb年龄在34~35 Ma之间。剑川火山-沉积岩组的年龄集中在34~36 Ma之间,属始新世晚期。剑川双河煤矿矿部至三家村及五家村一带,双河组之下新发现一套凝灰岩,其黑云母Ar-Ar坪年龄和锆石SHRIMP U-Pb年龄均为37 Ma±,表明双河组的起始年代不超过37 Ma;双河组形成于36~37 Ma之间,也属始新世晚期。新的结果表明剑川盆地始新统地层应包括宝相寺组、金丝厂组、双河组和剑川组,缺失渐新统沉积。结合其他盆地的年龄数据,表明剑川乃至整个云南地区在渐新世期间为褶皱隆起期。     

通化地区老岭群花山组与珍珠门组平行不整合的发现及意义

通化地区珍珠门组并非老岭群的顶部层位,其上确实存在花山(大栗子)组、临江组．并且与珍珠门组呈平行不整合接触。这一发现,为重新厘定集安岩群、老岭群的地层层序以及区域地层对比．提供了直接的地质依据,也为老岭群的古地理再造以及地质构造演化研究提供了新资料;同时也为在这一地区寻找古岩溶型矿产提供了重要线索。
