Tertiary extension of continental crust and uplift of Psiloritis metamorphic core complex in the central part of the Hellenic Arc (Crete,Greece)

Kinematic analysis of the deformation in central Crete suggests that the structural evolution and exhumation of the high pressure/low temperature (HP/LT) rocks outcropping at the Mount Psiloritis metamorphic core complex are associated with a regional, Miocene, north-south extension and thinning of the continental crust. This tectonic regime developed under bulk coaxial strain conditions, with ductile deformation in the lower and brittle deformation in the upper crust, and followed, on the decompressional path, a north-south compression associated with a HP/LT metamorphism in the lower crust. This compressional event took place during Oligocene—Early Miocene and led to overthickening of the accretionary wedge in the Hellenic Arc. An east-west directed compression accompanied, in the final stages, the Miocene north-south extension of the continental crust.     

The Darfur Dome,western Sudan: the product of a subcontinental mantle plume

Field investigations, K-Ar age determinations and chemical data were used to describe the development of an intraplate volcanic province, the Darfur Dome, Sudan. Magmatism started 36 Ma ago at a small subvolcanic complex (Jebel Kussa) in the center of the dome and was active in the same area between 26 and 23 Ma. Two major volcanic fields (Marra Mountains and Tagabo Hills) developed between 16 and 10 Ma. Volcanism started again at 6.8 Ma with a third volcanic field (Meidob Hills) and at 4.3 Ma in the Marra Mountains and with the reactivation of the center. Activity then continued until the late Quaternary. Having started in the center of the Darfur Dome, volcanism moved in 36 Ma 200 km towards the NNE and 100 km SSW No essential difference in the alkaline magma types (basanitic to phonolitic-trachytic, with different amounts of assimilation of crustal material) in the different fields, was observed. Magmatism is thought to have been produced by a rising mantle plume and volcanism was triggered by stress resolution along the Central African Fault Zone.     

东秦岭地区钼矿床的铼-锇同位素年龄及其意义

金属矿床的成矿年龄多年来一直是矿床地质工作者关注的问题之一。中国地质科学院岩矿测试技术研究所建立的铼－锇同位素定年实验室，为研究钼矿床的形成时代提供了新的手段。因辉钼矿是最主要的含铼矿物之一，且基本上不含普通锇，其中所含＾１８７Ｏｓ是由＾１８７Ｒｅ衰变而来，故放射成因＾１８７Ｏｓ的积累是矿物年龄及铼含量的函数。本文采用同位素稀释－等离子体质谱法，测定了东秦岭钼矿带中几个不同类型的大型钼矿床的Ｒｅ－

京津地区长城系下伏变质岩系变质年龄及长城系底界年龄的厘定

长城系属中元古宇底部,其底界年龄一直存在争议。国内发表的数据在2000-1640Ma之间。通过分析以往数据,并据近年新资料,认为长城系底界年龄划在(1700±20)Ma是比较合理的。     

苏北榴辉岩的稀土元素地球化学及其成因讨论

江苏北部的榴辉岩出露于东海群变质岩系中，榴辉岩的产状是：１）呈似层状或透镜状产于东海群片麻岩中；２）呈不规则团块状产于超镁铁岩中，或与超镁铁岩伴生。全岩分析表明，前者相当橄榄拉斑玄琥岩或石英拉斑玄武岩，后者相当橄榄玄武岩或橄榄拉斑玄武岩。

Magnetostratieraphy of the Red Beds in the Hengyang Basin

This paper discusses the Cretaceous-Tertiary magnetic polarity sequence of the the Hengyang Basin on the basis of magnetostratigraphic study. The age of each stratigraphic unit has been determined with the magnetic polarity time scale combined with 39Ar/40Ar dating, thus providing evidence for determining the geological ages of different formations. The authors assign the age of the Dongjing Formation of the Hengyang Basin to Early Cretaceous, the Shenhuangshan Formation to Early-Late Cretaceous, the Daijiaping Formation to Late Cretaceous, and the Dongtang and Xialiushi formations to Palaeocene.     

云南岔河铜矿成矿时代与成因

早元古界岔河变质岩中铜矿石黄铜矿的Ｐｂ－Ｐｂ等时线年龄为９５１±３６Ｍａ，属于晋宁运动早期的成矿作用。矿石稀土分配模式与围岩相似，二者均以富轻稀土为特征，Ｅｕ轻微亏损，矿床成因与含铜变质岩系有关。黄铜矿的δ３４Ｓ值分布范围为－１２．４７‰－－５．３２‰，平均值为－８．９３‰。含矿岩系形成于近海开放体系中。微量元素研究表明，区域地层Ｃｕ、Ｍｏ、Ｓ的丰度较高，比泰勒的地壳丰度值高３－１０倍。Ｃｕ在矿化过程中，变质作用和构造控制有重要意义，地层中的成矿元素在有利的构造部位沉淀，形成浸染状矿化和石英硫化物脉。该矿床属于火山－沉积变质矿床。     

对胶南群的异议

对苏北～胶南一带胶南群的变质岩系进行研究，其边界特征、横向不连续性、岩石类型及相互关系、同位素年龄等资料表明，胶南群不具有单一地层单元的含义，而是挟于五莲－荣成断裂与海州－泗阳断裂之间的构造岩石组合体，它由上壳岩类和深源岩类组成，前者包括了３个构造位。其形成可能与边界深大断裂的开合作用有关
