川中、川南过渡带须家河组储集砂体成因类型及特征

川中、川南过渡带地区在晚三叠世须家河期湖盆演化的各阶段沉积了不同成因类型的碎屑岩储积砂体,以须家河组二段、四段和六段最为发育,其成因类型主要有三角洲平原分流河道砂体、三角洲前缘水下分流河道砂体、河口坝砂体、滨湖砂滩和浅湖砂坝砂体。通过野外剖面、岩芯、测井曲线以及样品的薄片鉴定和扫描电镜分析,对各成因类型砂体的分布特征进行了研究,进而对各类砂体的结构构造、物性特征进行了对比研究。     

内蒙古西部北山地区甜水井-青山一带双堡塘组时代讨论

通过对神螺滩双堡塘组生物地层的研究、对比,神螺滩双堡塘组中所产菊石Uraloceras是北山地区双堡塘组的特征分子,广泛分布于俄罗斯、加拿大、澳大利亚和中国的上石炭统—下、中二叠统;腕足Neospirifer ravana,Schizodus subquadratus,S.cf.elongatas,Parallelodon olseni,Pseudomonotis mongoliensis,Streblochondria?sp.,Palaeolima sp.,Myalinella cf.falcata等均见于内蒙古中部的早、中二叠世哲斯组。神螺滩双堡塘组的化石中没有发现典型的晚二叠世的特征分子。这一化石组合面貌显示神螺滩双堡塘组的时代应为早二叠世晚期—中二叠世,而不是晚二叠世。     

北京周口店豹皮灰岩的变形特征

周口店地区广泛分布的寒武纪地层府君山组底部灰岩因其具典型的豹斑状构造而被称为豹皮灰岩。本文主要以出露于周口店黄院地区的豹皮灰岩为研究对象。组成豹皮灰岩的物质成分有2种,一为白云质成分的豹斑,其余部分为泥灰质。在露头尺度上,豹皮灰岩中的豹斑发生了明显的旋转变形并具有一定的定向性,而泥灰质成分则具有清晰的韧性变形特征,为较典型的碳酸盐糜棱岩;在微观尺度上,构成豹斑的白云石矿物未发生韧性变形,而泥灰质成分中的方解石具有明显的细粒化、拉长和定向。豹皮灰岩变形发生时岩石所处的温度介于200～250℃之间。豹皮灰岩的形成经历了原岩形成和后期构造变形改造2个阶段,于寒武纪由沉积作用形成了岩石的物质组分和原生层状构造,在前印支期受水平剪切作用形成岩石的豹斑状构造。     

贵州中寒武世凯里生物群的生活环境及古生态系统

以原地埋藏为主的中寒武世凯里生物群生活环境为远离古陆、盐分正常、透光性良好和含氧量充分的热带海洋； 沉积环境为波浪基准面与风暴基准面之间、软性泥质基底、水体相对平静的正常浅海，深度在100 m以内，可能为一系列岛屿所组成的海湾边缘相。依据生物的主要生活和活动空间，可将凯里生物群分为水体上层群落、水体下层群落、底栖表生群落和底栖内生群落。这些生物群落依赖食物链将生态系统中的生物结成一个整体，其群落特征随海平面的变化而有所变化。热带频繁的风暴流或洋流等为生活于海湾边缘的凯里生物群的生长和繁殖提供了大量的营养物质和矿物质，同时由此产生的快速沉积事件是生物遗体得以较为完整保存的重要原因之一。

Tidally dominated, rimmed-shelf facies of the Picún Leufú Formation (Jurassic/Cretaceous boundary) in southwest Gondwana, Neuquén Basin, Argentina

A palaeoenvironmental model for the Picún Leufú Formation (Jurassic/Cretaceous boundary), which crops out in the Neuquén Basin, Argentina, on the southwestern margin of Gondwana, is presented in this paper for the first time. Detailed stratigraphic sections exposed along National Road 40 where it crosses the Picún Leufú Creek (type locality) and in the Cerrito Caracoles area, were examined and sampled. Based on a combination of the sedimentological data obtained (facies/microfacies analysis) and the relationship between benthic macrofaunas and their taphonomic attributes, it is concluded that the formation reflects a tidally dominated, rimmed-shelf setting characterized by prograding bars dissected by channels and thick lagoonal facies with shoal developments. In the Cerrito Caracoles area, where only the basal part of the formation is exposed, it is interpreted to have been deposited in a shallow subtidal marine environment in which shelf margin facies with patch reefs have been recognized.     

The Alleret maar (Massif Central, France): A new lacustrine sequence of the early Middle Pleistocene in western Europe

The Alleret maar (Massif Central, France) provides a long lacustrine sequence (40.6 m) attributed to the early Middle Pleistocene. Sediment, pollen and diatoms analysis of its upper part (AL2 core, 14.6 m) indicates two temperate phases marked by high lake levels, forest development and vegetation expansion. They are separated by a cold period during which lake level drops, coarse sediment input increases and steppic and xerophilous plants develop. Pollen data suggests that this sequence belongs to the upper part of the Cromerian complex. These results are in agreement with the 557 ± 3 ka (±12 ka, including all errors) ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar age obtained from an interbedded tephra layer emitted by the Mont-Dore/Sancy strato-volcano and establish that this sequence probably covers the MIS 15 substages.     

Sedimentary facies and sequence stratigraphy of the Asmari Formation at Chaman-Bolbol, Zagros Basin, Iran

The Oligocene–Miocene Asmari Formation of the Zagros Basin is a thick sequence of shallow water carbonate. In the study area, it is subdivided into 14 microfacies that are distinguished on the basis of their depositional textures, petrographic analysis and fauna. Based on the paleoecology and lithology, four distinct depositional settings can be recognized: tidal flat, lagoon, barrier, and open marine. The Asmari Formation represents sedimentation on a carbonate ramp. In the inner ramp, the most abundant lithofacies are medium grained wackestone–packstone with imperforated foraminifera. The middle ramp is represented by packstone–grainstone to floatstone with a diverse assemblage of larger foraminifera with perforate wall, red algae, bryozoa, and echinoids. The outer ramp is dominated by argillaceous wackestone characterized by planktonic foraminifera and large and flat nummulitidae and lepidocyclinidae. Three third-order depositional sequences are recognized from deepening and shallowing trends in the depositional facies, changes in cycle stacking patterns, and sequence boundary features.     

Ammonite biostratigraphy of the Albian in the Kirchrode II borehole, Hannover, Germany

The ammonite biostratigraphy of the 279.35 m of sediments of mid-Late Albian–Early Albian age traversed by the Kirchrode II (1/94) boring is described. The borehole was drilled in the Hermann-Löns Park, Kirchrode (Hannover), northwest Germany, in the central region of the Lower Saxony sedimentary basin. The core commenced within the Kirchrode Mergel Member of the Gault Formation in sediments of Callihoplites auritus Subzone age and showed a Late Albian ammonite zonal succession similar to that previously described by Wiedmann and Owen from the lower part of the nearby Kirchrode I (1/91) core, with which it is correlated. The thick underlying clay sediments of the Minimus Ton Member (Middle Albian–late Early Albian) provided a relatively sparse ammonite fauna. In the Middle Albian part of the sediment succession, several hiatuses are present and only sediments of the lower Euhoplites loricatus Zone (Anahoplites intermedius Subzone) and the Hoplites dentatus Zone (Hoplites spathi Subzone) have been identified. This is followed downward by a thick sedimentary succession through the upper part of the Early Albian Douvilleiceras mammillatum Superzone (Otohoplites auritiformis Zone). Earlier mammillatum and perhaps latest Leymeriella tardefurcata Zone portions of the core straddling the Minimus Ton/Schwicheldt Ton boundary, did not yield ammonites. The underlying sediments at the top of the Schwicheldt Ton Member, consist of dark clays and mudstones with a good representation of the Leymeriella (Neoleymeriella) regularis Subzone and the uppermost part of the Leymeriella acuticostata Subzone (Leymeriella tardefurcata Zone). Of particular importance is the succession through the sediments of the L. (N.) regularis Subzone, hitherto poorly known in north Germany. A brief comparison and correlation is made with other surface and borehole sections in northern Germany and elsewhere. The Boreal and more cosmopolitan Tethyan elements of the fauna are indicated and discussed. An appendix of ammonites obtained from the Mittellandkanal section at Misburg of latest Albian, Arraphoceras (Praeschloenbachia) briacensis Subzone age, completes the study.     

西秦岭天水尹道寺中生代酸性火山岩锆石U-Pb定年和元素地球化学研究

对天水尹道寺酸性火山岩进行了LA-ICPMS锆石U-Pb定年、全岩主量和微量元素分析.结果表明,本区酸性火岩熔岩均为流纹岩,SiO2、Na2O K2O含量高,TiO2含量低,主体为亚碱性系列,轻稀土高度富集,Eu负异常明显.微量元素原始地幔标准化分配模式及洋中脊玄武岩标准化分配模式分别与大陆板内火山岩或大陆板内花岗岩的分配模式一致,Ba、Sr、P、Ti显著亏损.锆石U-Pb同位素定年揭示了流纹岩的岩浆结晶年龄为印支末期(211Ma).流纹岩具有富集放射性Pb同位素的特点,其源区可能为北秦岭基底岩石.依据稀土元素和微量元素分配模式对比研究,认为流纹岩浆为地壳下部部分熔融的产物.源区物质可能为下元古界秦岭岩群中的黑云角闪斜长片麻岩,源区的残留物主体可能为斜长石,含有角闪石,岩浆演化过程中存在少量的碱性长石和黑云母的分离结晶.印支末期秦岭地区处于由陆内碰撞造山阶段开始向深部地幔调整和岩石圈减薄阶段转变,特殊的构造背景使得陆内挤压、剪切走滑和推覆构造较为发育,西秦岭尹道寺地区特定的构造背景与断裂构造的结合,形成了该地区独特的流纹岩浆喷发.
