Tracing the source of metals in Geogas from metal deposits in a loess-covered region北大核心CSCD

In order to test the distribution characteristics of metallogenic elements and the application effectiveness of the traee elements and REE for tracing the source of Geogas anomaly, the distribution characteristics of metallogenetic elements .trace elements and REE in different media of the Jiaolongzhang Pb-Zn deposit underneath the loess have been studied in this paper. Results indicate that the distribution characteristics of Geogas anomalous elements over the concealed orebodies are coincided with those of the enriched elements of ores, while the distribution characteristics of trace elements and REE in background Geogas samples are distinctly different from those of other media, indicating that the source of background Geogas materials is influenced by various factors( geological bodies, lab environment and blank reagent). The similar distribution characteristics of the trace elements in the Geogas samples of anomalous areas and in the ores suggested that Geogas anomaly is affected by concealed orebodies in depth. The difference between REE patterns of the Geogas samples of the anomalous area and those of other solid media might be caused by inadequate analytical precision and low collecting efficiency of the instrument. It is believed that the REE tracing method can provide the information on the source of Geogas anomaly if the analytical precision and collecting efficiency of REE could be constantly increased.     

Geodynamic setting,structure, and composition of continuous trachybasalt-trachyandesite-rhyolite series in the north of Altai-Sayan area: the role of crust-mantle interaction in continental magma formation

The geologic positions and geochemical and isotope parameters of the Ordovician-early Silurian and Early-Middle Devonian continuous volcanic series of the Minusa basin and its mountainous framing are compared. Both series are composed mostly of moderately alkaline rocks with variations in SiO₂ contents from 45 to 77 wt.%. The Ordovician-early Silurian series differs from the Early-Middle Devonian one in lower contents of TiO₂ (< 1.7 wt.%) and Fe₂O_3tot and higher contents of Al₂O₃ in all rock varieties and in the more fractionated REE patterns of trachybasalts. The compositions of both series reflect two simultaneous mechanisms of magma evolution. The main process was fractional crystallization leading to the formation of rocks from trachybasalts to trachyrhyodacites. The accessory mechanism was the contamination of fractionated melts by crustal material, anatectic melting of crust, and mixing of deep-seated magmas with crustal melts. These processes had specifics at each stage and were controlled by the composition of the sources of parental melts. Their geochemical and isotopic parameters (high alkalinity, high contents of lithophile elements, negative anomalies of Nb, Ta, and Ti, and enrichment in radiogenic Sr) point to the interaction of mantle plumes with the lithospheric mantle that was metasomatically transformed during the preceding Vendian-early Cambrian subduction processes.     

Origin of natural sulfur-metal chimney in the Tangyin hydrothermal field,Okinawa Trough: constraints from rare earth element and sulfur isotopic compositions

For the first time, we present the rare earth element (REE) and sulfur isotopic composition of hydrothermal precipitates recovered from the Tangyin hydrothermal field (THF), Okinawa Trough at a water depth of 1206 m. The natural sulfur samples exhibit the lowest ΣREE concentrations (ΣREE= 0.65×10^–6–4.580×10^–6) followed by metal sulfides (ΣREE=1.71×10^–6–11.63×10^–6). By contrast, the natural sulfur-sediment samples have maximum ΣREE concentrations (ΣREE=11.54×10^–6–33.06×10^–6), significantly lower than those of the volcanic and sediment samples. Nevertheless, the δEu, δCe, (La/Yb)_N, La/Sm, (Gd/Yb)_N and normalized patterns of the natural sulfur and metal sulfide show the most similarity to the sediment. Most hydrothermal precipitate samples are characterized by enrichments of LREE (LREE/HREE=10.09–24.53) and slightly negative Eu anomalies or no anomaly (δEu=0.48–0.99), which are different from the hydrothermal fluid from sediment-free mid-oceanic ridges and back-arc basins, but identical to the sulfides from the Jade hydrothermal field. The lower temperature and more oxidizing conditions produced by the mixing between seawater and hydrothermal fluids further attenuate the leaching ability of hydrothermal fluid, inducing lower REE concentrations for natural sulfur compared with metal sulfide; meanwhile, the negative Eu anomaly is also weakened or almost absent. The sulfur isotopic compositions of the natural sulfur (δ³⁴S=3.20‰–5.01‰, mean 4.23‰) and metal sulfide samples (δ³⁴S=0.82‰–0.89‰, mean 0.85‰) reveal that the sulfur of the chimney is sourced from magmatic degassing.     

滇西盈江地区新泡山离子吸附型稀土矿床成矿条件及找矿前景

滇西盈江地区是近年来离子吸附型稀土矿床找矿突破较大的地区,典型代表为腾冲岩浆弧内新发现的新泡山稀土矿床,为一中型离子吸附型稀土矿床,是滇西高海拔地区新发现的典型矿床。新泡山稀土矿床的发现对今后高海拔地区的找矿工作具有重要的示范意义。通过对新泡山稀土矿床的地质特征、风化壳结构特征、矿体垂向变化特征进行研究,认为新泡山稀土矿床类型为富钕轻稀土离子吸附型稀土矿床,并伴生有重稀土钇。滇西盈江地区与花岗岩有关的离子吸附型稀土矿主要受控于母岩稀土元素丰度、气候以及地形地貌。"沟-谷-盆"地貌两侧及周缘低缓山丘和平缓山坡、山脊是有利的成矿部位。结合区域找矿成果,认为研究区稀土矿找矿潜力较大,可达超大型远景规模,在后续的找矿工作中应加强对重稀土元素钇的评价。     

滇西勐兴铅锌矿床热液方解石碳氧同位素、稀土元素特征及其指示意义

勐兴铅锌矿床是滇西保山地块内系列低温热液矿床中的典型代表,但地质科研工作相对薄弱。由于方解石是该矿床中分布广泛且与热液活动息息相关的重要脉石矿物,其形成贯穿整个成矿过程,故对其C-O同位素及稀土元素组成特征进行系统研究,以便探讨矿床成矿流体来源及演化。结果显示,该矿床两阶段方解石的δ~(13)C_(PDB)和δ~(18)O_(SMOW)值与海相碳酸盐岩较为接近,且从阶段Ⅰ→阶段Ⅱ呈微弱下降趋势,表明成矿流体中的C主要来源于围岩碳酸盐岩的溶解,阶段Ⅱ成矿流体在与围岩反应之前可能已经发生CO2热液去气作用;阶段Ⅰ方解石的稀土总量、特征参数及配分模式与结晶灰岩较为一致,而阶段Ⅱ方解石与生物碎屑灰岩较为相似,表明阶段Ⅰ方解石中的REE主要来源于结晶灰岩,而后生物碎屑灰岩对阶段Ⅱ方解石中的稀土贡献较大。以上数据及其矿床地质特征均显示该矿床为MVT型铅锌矿床,结合区域构造演化,认为勐兴矿床的形成与中特提斯洋闭合后腾冲地块与保山地块陆陆碰撞挤压密切相关。     

一种稀土参数图解新方法:以内蒙古拜仁达坝-维拉斯托闪长岩成因研究为例

稀土元素的示踪作用在地质学、地球化学研究中具有重要意义,稀土参数图解可以揭示岩石的形成机理、条件和成因分类,追踪各种复杂地质作用的演化历史。利用稀土元素参数REE与SiO₂、REE与LREE/HREE、δEu与LREE/HREE图解,在内蒙古拜仁达坝-维拉斯托铅锌银多金属矿区从偏基性端元向偏酸性端元演化的闪长岩类野外岩相学观察和室内测试的基础上,发现其全岩稀土参数之间的相关关系,进而结合岩石地球化学数据、稀土参数图解新方法与微量元素聚类分析,判别其闪长岩的成因和岩浆源区。结果显示,拜仁达坝赋矿的闪长岩具有高硅、富钠及较高MgO和Al₂O₃含量的特征,属钙碱性系列,显示地幔岩浆分异与下地壳熔融岩浆混合的特点;拜仁达坝-维拉斯托闪长岩LREE/HREE-REE和δEu-LREE/HREE曲线显示,稀土高值组端元分别呈负相关和正相关关系,负Eu异常明显,相对富集Rb、Th、U、K等大离子亲石元素,亏损Nb、Ta、Sr、P、Ti等高场强元素,而稀土低值组端元反之。上述特征表明, 拜仁达坝-维拉斯托闪长岩为一套活动大陆边缘幔源为主、壳幔混合成因的钙碱性岩浆岩系列。实例研究初步证实,提出的稀土参数图解新方法是有效的,具有较强的普适性,适合在常规的地质科研中完善并推广。     

香港西贡滨珊瑚REE的地球化学特征及其与海平面变化的关系

用ICP-MS技术测定了位于珠江口西岸香港西贡滨珊瑚在1991～2002年(分辨率达到0.5a)的稀土元素(REE)含量。实验结果显示香港滨珊瑚REE具有Ce负异常、重稀土富集这种典型的海水相分布模式。香港滨珊瑚中REE含量处于目前已见报道中的高值范围,与巴布亚新几内亚珊瑚的REE含量相当。通过与不同地区的比较,香港珊瑚高REE含量很可能就是毗邻的珠江水体高REE的直接反映,而且同南海北缘半封闭边缘海的性质有关。香港珊瑚REE的来源主要为珠江口及其相邻的陆缘沉积物。此外,1991～2002年香港珊瑚REE含量年际下降趋势十分明显,Ce负异常和重稀土富集的程度也呈加剧的趋势,分布模式向海水相转化。REE含量与海平面的年际变化之间有显著的负相关关系(r=-0.7～-0.9),而且重稀土与海平面的相关系数优于轻稀土。上述结果揭示了热带滨珊瑚对近期全球变暖、极冰融化和海水膨胀所引起的海平面快速上升的响应。
