The lower marine to lower freshwater Molasse transition in the northern Alpine foreland basin (Oligocene; central Switzerland–south Germany): age and geodynamic implications

The Wilhelmine Alpe section near Immenstadt (Allgäu, south Germany), which represents one of the best continuously exposed outcrops within the northern Alpine foreland basin, has been analyzed for magnetostratigraphic and palynostratigraphic signals. The section comprises the marine-to-terrestrial transition from Lower Marine (UMM) to Lower Freshwater Molasse (USM) sediments. Based on the correlation of the local magnetic pattern with the geomagnetic polarity timescale (GPTS) and palynostratigraphic data, an age of about 31 Ma is suggested for the UMM–USM transition in the Wilhelmine Alpe section. A comparison with coeval magnetostratigraphic sections from central and eastern Switzerland indicates that the regression of the UMM sea along the southern margin of the Molasse basin occurred strongly heterochronously between 31.5 and 30 Ma. The heterochroneity is attributed to the deposition of fan-delta and alluvial fan sediments which document that the overall marine conditions during the UMM were accompanied by strong clastic input derived from the rising Alps. This clastic contribution had a much stronger influence on the depositional pattern than previously thought.

以矿田构造–岩相填图为主要方法,研究确定矿田构造和岩浆-热力构造类型及矿床类型,进行成矿富集中心的圈定及找矿预测,是矿田构造背景复杂地区的有效调研方法之一。东昆仑西段祁漫塔格矿带多期构造–岩浆活动强烈,断裂发育,以印支晚期岩浆侵入成矿与找矿进展较大。本次选择景忍–虎头崖、卡尔却卡B区、乌兰乌珠尔三个矿田区,进行1∶10000构造–岩相填图,填制了三个矿田区岩浆–热力构造类型分布图,认为晚三叠世岩浆侵入作用是该区多金属大规模成矿的主要内因,叠加其上的不同方向断裂控矿作用不同,近东西向和北西西向断裂控矿显著,明确了各矿田构造背景和印支期岩浆侵入形成的花岗斑岩+矽卡岩+断裂带热液成矿的模式,厘定了岩浆–热力构造的识别标志,即主要是印支晚期中酸性侵入岩、花岗斑岩、矽卡岩带、大理岩带、接触交代蚀变带、断裂破碎带叠加热液蚀变带等,圈定了成矿和找矿富集中心。     

Depositional setting,provenance, and tectonic-volcanic setting of Eocene–Recent deep-sea sediments of the oceanic Izu–Bonin forearc,northwest Pacific (IODP Expedition 352)

New biostratigraphical, geochemical, and magnetic evidence is synthesized with IODP Expedition 352 shipboard results to understand the sedimentary and tectono-magmatic development of the Izu–Bonin outer forearc region. The oceanic basement of the Izu–Bonin forearc was created by supra-subduction zone seafloor spreading during early Eocene (c. 50–51 Ma). Seafloor spreading created an irregular seafloor topography on which talus locally accumulated. Oxide-rich sediments accumulated above the igneous basement by mixing of hydrothermal and pelagic sediment. Basaltic volcanism was followed by a hiatus of up to 15 million years as a result of topographic isolation or sediment bypassing. Variably tuffaceous deep-sea sediments were deposited during Oligocene to early Miocene and from mid-Miocene to Pleistocene. The sediments ponded into extensional fault-controlled basins, whereas condensed sediments accumulated on a local basement high. Oligocene nannofossil ooze accumulated together with felsic tuff that was mainly derived from the nearby Izu–Bonin arc. Accumulation of radiolarian-bearing mud, silty clay, and hydrogenous metal oxides beneath the carbonate compensation depth (CCD) characterized the early Miocene, followed by middle Miocene–Pleistocene increased carbonate preservation, deepened CCD and tephra input from both the oceanic Izu–Bonin arc and the continental margin Honshu arc. The Izu–Bonin forearc basement formed in a near-equatorial setting, with late Mesozoic arc remnants to the west. Subduction-initiation magmatism is likely to have taken place near a pre-existing continent–oceanic crust boundary. The Izu–Bonin arc migrated northward and clockwise to collide with Honshu by early Miocene, strongly influencing regional sedimentation.     

Larger Foraminiferal Biostratigraphy and Facies Analysis of the Oligocene–Miocene Asmari Formation in the Western Fars Sub-basin, Zagros Mountains, Iran

The Oligocene–Miocene carbonate record of the Zagros Mountains, known as the Asmari Formation, constitutes an important hydrocarbon reservoir in southern Iran. This marine carbonate succession, which developed under tropical conditions, is explored in terms of larger foraminiferal biostratigraphy, facies analysis and sequence stratigraphy in a new section at Papoon cropping out in the western Fars sub-basin, in the south-east of the Zagros belt. Facies analysis shows evidence of re-working and transport of skeletal components throughout the depositional system, interpreted here as a carbonate ramp. The foraminifera-based biozones identified include the Globigerina–Turborotalia cerroazulensis–Hantkenina Zone and Nummulites vascus–Nummulites fichteli Zone, both of Rupelian age, the Archaias asmaricus–Archaias hensoni–Miogypsinoides complanatus Zone of Chattian age and the ‘Indeterminate’ Zone of Aquitanian age. The vertical sedimentary evolution of the formation exhibits a progressive shallowing of the facies belts and thus the succession is interpreted as a high-rank low-order regressive systems tract. This long-lasting Rupelian–Aquitanian regressive event is in accordance with accepted global long-term eustatic curves. Accordingly, long-term eustatic trends would have been a factor controlling accommodation during the deposition of the Asmari Formation studied in the western Fars sub-basin.

四川甘洛铅锌矿集区闪锌矿Rb-Sr等时线年龄及其地质意义

四川甘洛铅锌矿集区位于扬子地块西南缘的川滇黔铅锌成矿带北段,是四川主要的铅锌产地,具有重要经济价值。为研究该矿集区铅锌成矿时代、成矿大地构造背景和成矿机制,以支撑区域找矿勘查,在区内选择赤普和尔呷地吉两个典型铅锌矿床开展闪锌矿Rb-Sr同位素体系研究,获得Rb-Sr等时线年龄246 ± 17 Ma（MSWD= 2.3）,表明区内铅锌矿化作用发生于早三叠世,与古特提斯洋闭合时限吻合;闪锌矿(87Sr/86Sr)i值变化于0.71061~0.71393,高于幔源87Sr/86Sr值0.70355及峨眉山玄武岩87Sr /86Sr值0.704979~0.706938,低于基底岩石87Sr /86Sr值0.7243~0.7288,暗示成矿物质主要来源于地壳。综合前人研究,认为在古特提斯洋闭合背景下,强烈造山运动诱发盆地卤水深循环并萃取基底地层中的成矿物质,在峨眉山玄武岩岩浆活动的热动力条件下,含矿流体沿马拉哈断裂进一步迁移沉淀形成了赤普和尔呷地吉铅锌矿床。马拉哈深大断裂及造山作用派生的层间或断层破碎带、碳酸盐岩地层是甘洛地区主要的控矿要素。     

一种变形监测中中长基线的单历元模糊度解算算法

针对已有单历元模糊度解算算法只适用于短基线的情形,根据误差传播率确定模糊度精度,依据误差确定模糊度搜索空间,提出一种利用GPS双频观测信息实现中长基线下单历元模糊度固定的算法。首先,利用电离层约束法得到双差模糊度之间的线性约束条件;其次,利用变形监测中监测站点坐标近似已知的条件进行约束,反算获得近似模糊度;最后,根据监测站点已有的观测数据精度给出搜索空间,搜索固定模糊度。结果表明,该方法可以实现中长基线下单历元的模糊度固定,对实时变形监测有一定的参考价值。

江西金山金矿含金黄铁矿的Rb-Sr年龄

前人对江西金山金矿的成矿时代有许多不同的认识,笔者通过对江西金山蚀变岩型矿石中的含金黄铁矿Rb-Sr年龄的测定得出,含金黄铁矿的Rb-Sr等时线年龄为(838±110)Ma,initial87Sr/86Sr=0.7045±0.0020。由此可以推测晋宁期是蚀变岩型金矿体形成的主要时期。黄铁矿Rb-Sr所得的Sr同位素初始比(87Sr/86Sr)i小于陆源硅酸盐的值(0.720),而与玄武岩的值(0.704)接近,结合前人有关的同位素及稀土、微量元素研究,笔者认为金山金矿变质岩型矿体的成矿物质源于变质围岩,成矿流体为来源于深部的变质水。
