The origin of tin deposits in the Mount Wells region,Pine Creek Geosyncline,Northern Territory

Tabular steeply dipping cassiterite‐bearing lodes in the Mount Wells region are hosted by lower greenschist fades metasediment of the Pine Creek Geosyncline within the contact aureole of late orogenic granitoids. The latter are predominantly I‐type, but S‐type phases are developed near the sediment‐granitoid contact.

Quartz, cassiterite, pyrite, arsenopyrite, chalcopyrite and pyrrhotite are the main minerals. Two types of lodes are present: (i) Sn‐quartz lodes containing 5–10 vol% sulphide minerals; and (ii) Sn‐sulphide lodes containing ～ 70 vol% sulphide minerals. At the surface, the former appear as normal quartz veins and the latter as hematite‐quartz breccia resulting from the collapse of original sulphide‐rich lodes as a consequence of volume reduction due to oxidation and leaching.

Two stages of quartz veining are recognized in both types of lodes. Cassiterite is present in stage I while stage II is composed of barren quartz with minor pyrite. Late stage III carbonate veinlets are present in Sn‐sulphide lodes. The lode‐wallrock contact is sharp with weak alteration effects confined to the fringe of the lodes. The alteration minerals include sericite, quartz, tourmaline, chlorite, pyrite and minor K‐feldspar.

Four types of fluid inclusions are present in vein quartz and cassiterite: Type A (CO₂ ± H₂O ± CH₄); Type B (H₂O+～ 20% vapour); Type C (H₂O+ < 15% vapour) and Type D (H₂O+ < 15% vapour + NaCl). Early ‘primary’ inclusions represented by Types A and B are present in stage I only and have a well‐defined temperature mode at ～300°C and a salinity range of 1–20 wt% eq NaCl. Types C and D inclusions are ‘secondary’ in stage I and primary in stage II and have a temperature mode at 120–160°C and salinities from about 1 to more than 26 wt% eq NaCl. Variable H₂O‐CO₂ ratios of Type A inclusions and homogenization in CO₂ or H₂O phase at near identical temperature indicate entrapment at the H₂O‐CO₂ solvus and define a pressure of ～ 100 MPa. The melting sequence of frozen inclusions suggests that the ore fluids were mainly H₂O‐CO₂‐CH₄‐Na‐Ca‐Cl brines. This is also confirmed by Raman Laser Spectrometry.

Oxygen and sulphur isotope data are consistent with a magmatic origin of the ore fluids. The δD values are up to 20%0 higher than those expected for magmatic fluids and probably resulted from interaction of the latter with the carbonaceous strata. This interpretation is supported by δ¹³C data on the fluid inclusion CO₂.

Fluid inclusions, stable isotope and mineralogical data are used to approximate the physico‐chemical parameters of the ore fluids which are as follows: T 300°C, m Cl～2, fO₂ ～ 10^‐35, mSS ～ 0.01, Sn ～ 1 ppm, Cu ～ 1 ppm and pH ～ 5.5.

It is suggested that fluids of granitic parentage interacted with the enclosing sediment and picked up CO₂, CH₄ and possibly Ca. The granitic phases became reduced due to this interaction and developed S‐type characteristics. Tin was probably partitioned into the CH₄‐bearing reduced fluids. At some stage the fluid overpressure exceeded the lithostatic lode enforcing failure of the carapace and the intruded rocks by hydraulic fracturing causing CH₄ and CO₂ loss resulting in the precipitation of the ore minerals.

基于小生境遗传算法软土地基上加筋路堤稳定性分析

在软土地基加筋路堤稳定性分析方法中,传统分析方法(如瑞典法和荷兰法)因对加筋材料的加筋作用估计不足,导致计算结果过于保守,与实际不符。本文在充分考虑加筋体的加筋作用下,提出了新的加筋路堤稳定性分析计算方法,并采用小生境遗传算法搜索临界滑动面和最小安全系数。算例计算结果表明,本文提出的加筋路堤稳定性分析方法与工程实际情况吻合较好,并且小生境遗传算法能有效地搜索到边坡所有的临界滑动面。

黄钇钽矿形成条件的实验研究

本文实验表明,黄钇钽矿需要在温度≥500℃,溶液pH≈4.0-7.5,压力500—1500bar的范围内形成,与褐钇铌矿相比,其形成条件的范围要窄得多。 不同的稀土元素在形成黄钇钽矿时的成矿温度亦不同。钇族稀土成矿温度相对较低且相互接近,铈族稀土的成矿温度比钇族稀土高得多,并随原子序数减小而迅速增高,以致La、Ce、Pr、Nd在一般的地质条件下难以形成这种结构的矿物,这就是至今在自然界发现的黄钇钽矿均为钇族稀土占优势的原因之一。实验还表明,大量F、P等组分的存在,对黄钇钽矿的形成是不利的。

苏皖凹凸棒石矿物红外光谱特征研究

苏皖凹凸捧石粘土矿物包括沉积、风化及火山碎屑蚀变三种成因类型。成矿物质来源于内陆浅水湖盆水下玄武岩风化蚀变及地表玄武岩的风化。不同成因类型的凹凸棒石在矿物晶体结晶程度上有较大差异。通常,由风化作用生成并与碳酸盐共生的沉积型凹凸棒石结晶程度低,较纯的并与硅质岩共生的沉积型凹凸棒石结晶程度高。它们在红外吸收光谱特征上表现为:前者红外振动吸收带分裂程度低,吸收峰弱且峰形钝。后者红外振动吸收带分裂程度高,吸收峰尖锐。因此研究凹凸捧石的红外吸收光谱特征可基本上区分出它们的成因类型。本文还对凹凸棒石红外吸收光谱振动波数带进行了划分,并对相应的振动类型作了探讨。
