金沙江白鹤滩水电站坝址区断层变形特点及成因分析

拟建中的白鹤滩水电站坝基将建在二叠系峨眉山组玄武岩层之上.坝址区发育有位移量较小的NW300°、NW320°、NE40°和近SN向4组断层,其中NW300°断层最为发育.在野外详细调查的基础上,室内的显微构造研究和电子自旋共振(简称ESR)测年结果表明,坝址区内的断层是在燕山期晚期近东西向挤压应力场作用下形成,后期又受到了近南北向挤压应力场的改造.断层破碎带以发育典型碎裂-角砾岩等浅层脆性构造岩为特点,近期活动不明显.     

内蒙古孟恩陶勒盖银多金属矿床及其附近侵入岩的年代学

孟恩陶勒盖是内蒙古东部地区的一处大型银多金属矿床,铅锌银矿体呈脉状产出,受东西向断裂控制。对孟恩陶勒盖矿区及其外围主要侵入岩体开展了年代学和地球化学研究。LA-MC-ICP-MS锆石测年结果表明：孟恩陶勒盖岩基中黑云母斜长花岗岩的锆石年龄为（240.5±1.2） Ma,MSWD=0.48;白云母斜长花岗岩的锆石年龄为（234.3±3.2） Ma,MSWD=0.21;矿区外围杜尔基岩基中的黑云母正长花岗岩的锆石年龄为（154.5±0.5） Ma,MSWD=0.41;矿区外围的安山玢岩的锆石年龄为（127.5±0.7） Ma,MSWD=1.3;分别代表了中三叠世、晚侏罗世和早白垩世的3期岩浆活动。岩石地球化学分析结果表明：孟恩陶勒盖岩基的黑云母斜长花岗岩和白云母斜长花岗岩与杜尔基岩体的黑云母正长花岗岩均为富SiO₂、富碱、准铝的钙碱性岩石,具有轻稀土分异明显、富集大离子亲石元素（LILE）为特征,其中Ba、Nb、La、Sr、P、Ti相对亏损,而Rb、Th、K、Ta、Ce、Nd、Hf、Sm、Y 和Yb相对富集。岩体年代学和岩石地球化学特征表明,孟恩陶勒盖岩基和杜尔基岩基分别形成于印支期的碰撞造山和燕山期的伸展构造环境。根据获得的侵入岩的测年数据与前人获得的孟恩陶勒盖银铅锌矿与成矿有关的蚀变白云母的Ar-Ar年龄(179. 0士1. 5) Ma对比显示,这些侵入岩的侵位年龄与成矿年龄之间差别较大,说明这些岩体不太可能是孟恩陶勒盖银铅锌矿床的成矿母岩。成矿岩体可能在深部尚未出露,或者已被杜尔基岩体改造。

石英标准生长曲线在青藏高原东缘黄土光释光测年中的应用

石英标准生长曲线（SGC）法在黄土高分辨率光释光定年中有大幅节省测试时间的潜力,然而目前对该方法在不同时空尺度上的适用性尚存在争议。本文选取青藏高原东缘的典型黄土样品,通过系统地分析石英光释光生长曲线特征,检验SGC法和最小二乘法标准化生长曲线（LS-SGC）法在高原东缘黄土光释光定年中的适用性,结果显示：1）高原东缘黄土石英光释光信号以快组分为主,且同一地点不同样品、不同测片的生长曲线形态相似;2）当等效剂量（D_e）小于100 Gy时,不同地点样品石英生长曲线形态一致;大于100 Gy时生长曲线则具有不同的剂量响应特征;3）通过SGC法获得的D_e仅在0~100 Gy与实测值一致;LS-SGC法拟合的生长曲线结果更佳,并且LS-SGC法计算的D_e在100~200 Gy与实测D_e仍具有较好的一致性。研究结果有助于深入研究高原黄土光释光测年和风成沉积过程,同时也可为其他区域建立石英光释光标准生长曲线提供借鉴。

     

海南三亚中元古代变质砾岩的发现及其对Columbia超大陆裂解的指示

海南岛中元古代沉积记录对于探讨华南陆块早期大陆演化过程起关键作用。对海南三亚三郎岭地区奥陶系干沟村组砂岩-板岩组合中的变砾岩形成时代进行了重新厘定。碎屑锆石U-Pb同位素年龄分析结果表明,65颗锆石207Pb/206U年龄范围为2691~1350 Ma,且分成2691~2444 Ma、1838~1632 Ma、1540~1350 Ma三组,形成约1699 Ma、约1440 Ma 2个主要峰值和约2461 Ma的1个次要峰值。基于最年轻锆石年龄为1350 Ma,且没有出现海南岛常见的1250~1100 Ma和1000~900 Ma年龄记录,将该套变质砾岩沉积时代限定在1350~1250 Ma,而并非前人划属的奥陶纪,这是海南岛首次发现中元古代的砾岩建造。该套变砾岩砾石成分成熟度高、结构成熟度中等,表现为裂谷盆地高密度的碎屑流沉积特征,是研究区Columbia超大陆裂解晚期的沉积响应。变质砾岩与劳伦大陆西部的Belt-Purcell超群下部沉积地层具有相似的碎屑锆石年龄组成和年龄谱特征,暗示中元古代哥伦比亚超大陆中,海南岛与劳伦西部靠近。     

Biogenic processes in crystalline bedrock fractures indicated by carbon isotope signatures of secondary calcite

Variation in ¹³C/¹²C-isotope ratios of fracture filling calcite was analyzed in situ to investigate carbon sources and cycling in fractured bedrock. The study was conducted by separating sections of fracture fillings, and analyzing the ¹³C/¹²C-ratios with secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS). Specifically, the study was aimed at fillings where previously published sulfur isotope data indicated the occurrence of bacterial sulfate reduction. The results showed that the δ¹³C values of calcite were highly variable, ranging from −53.8‰ to +31.6‰ (VPDB). The analysis also showed high variations within single fillings of up to 39‰. The analyzed calcite fillings were mostly associated with two calcite groups, of which Group 3 represents possible Paleozoic fluid circulation, based on comparison with similar dated coatings within the Baltic Shield and the succeeding Group 1–2 fillings represent late-stage, low temperature mineralization and are possibly late Paleozoic to Quaternary in age. Both generations were associated with pyrite with δ³⁴S values indicative of bacterial sulfate reduction. The δ¹³C values of calcite, however, were indicative of geochemical environments which were distinct for these generations. The δ¹³C values of Group 3 calcite varied from −22.1‰ to +11‰, with a distinct peak at −16‰ to −12‰. Furthermore, there were no observable depth dependent trends in the δ¹³C values of Group 3 calcite. The δ¹³C values of Group 3 calcite were indicative of organic matter degradation and methanogenesis. In contrast to the Group 3 fillings, the δ¹³C values of Group 1–2 calcite were highly variable, ranging from −53.8‰ to +31.6‰ and they showed systematic variation with depth. The near surface environment of <30 m (bsl) was characterized by δ¹³C values indicative of degradation of surface derived organic matter, with δ¹³C values ranging from −30.3‰ to −5.5‰. The intermediate depth of 34–54 m showed evidence of localized methanotrophic activity seen as anomalously ¹³C depleted calcite, having δ¹³C values as low as −53.8‰. At depths of ∼60–400 m, positive δ¹³C values of up to +31.6‰ in late-stage calcite of Group 1–2 indicated methanogenesis. In comparison, high CH₄ concentrations in present day groundwaters are found at depths of >300 m. One sample at a depth of 111 m showed a transition from methanogenetic conditions (calcite bearing methanogenetic signature) to sulfate reducing (precipitation of pyrite on calcite surface), however, the timing of this transition is so far unclear. The results from this study gives indications of the complex nature of sulfur and carbon cycling in fractured crystalline environments and highlights the usefulness of in situ stable isotope analysis.     

Late Oligocene–Early Miocene palaeoecology based on pollen data from the Kalkım-Gönen Basin (Northwest Turkey)

Radiometric and palynological data of the Upper Oligocene–Lower Miocene Soma Formation from the Kalk?m-Gönen Basin yield new results related to age and palynological contents. In this study, Upper Oligocene strata from the Dani?ment and Linfa areas and Lower Miocene strata from the Bengiler area were sampled palynologically and for radiometric dating. The Dani?ment assemblage, which is older than the Linfa assemblages, mainly contains coniferous and evergreen to deciduous mixed mesophytic forest elements. Relatively high quantities of the altitudinal plants Picea and Abies, indicate a cooler palaeoclimate. The Linfa associations mainly include coniferous and riparian elements. Pollen of the riparian plant Alnus and Taxodiaceae indicative for the swamp forest community was predominant, probably as a result of a high lake level. There is a hiatus during the Oligocene–Miocene transition, probably showing a non-depositional phase and sea-level fall indicating the Mi-1 glaciation event. Higher in the sequence, the Aquitanian Bengiler sediments include high amounts of coniferous forest elements as well as components indicative for the evergreen and deciduous mesophytic forest and also riparian forest and swamp forest. Due to presence of thermophilous taxa Reveesia, Mastixiaceae and Arecaceae, a warm and humid palaeoclimate is inferred according to quantitative analyses using the Coexistence Approach.     

金川铜镍矿床中新生代抬升冷却过程：来自裂变径迹的证据

本文基于热年代学理论,利用锆石和磷灰石裂变径迹测年数据及对磷灰石热史的模拟,分析探讨金川铜镍矿床在中新生代的抬升冷却过程,认为金川超基性岩体自中生代以来一直处于持续的冷却抬升阶段,且在中侏罗世和晚白垩世早期经历了两期快速的抬升冷却事件,推断此事件与青藏高原后期活动时间相对应,证明金川岩体受到该事件的远程效应波及,致使该矿床遭受了一定的改造。     

延边天佛指山花岗岩的形成时代及成因

延边天佛指山花岗岩年代学和地球化学研究表明,花岗岩中的锆石U-Pb年龄为(188.5±2.2)Ma,其侵位时间为早侏罗世。岩石总体上具有高硅、低铝、贫钙镁及富碱的特征,属高钾钙碱性系列I型花岗岩;富集轻稀土元素(LREE)和大离子亲石元素(LILE)Rb、Th、U、K等,相对亏损高场强元素(HFSE)Zr、Hf、Y、Yb等,显著亏损Ba、Nb、Ta、P、Ti等元素,δEu呈轻微程度负异常。该花岗岩岩浆源于地壳物质的部分熔融,可能形成于与古太平洋板块俯冲相关联的活动大陆边缘环境。

蒙古戈壁阿尔泰省巴音陶勒盖地区地处南戈壁-阿尔泰构造带南缘,区内构造活动活跃,中酸性侵入岩比较发育。采用LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb测年技术,对区内二长花岗岩中的锆石进行同位素年龄研究。阴极发光图像显示,锆石颗粒多为自形-半自形,且有明显的初始岩浆振荡环带,少见蚀变微区,结合较高的Th/U值(0.65~1.79),断定其为典型的岩浆成因锆石;30颗锆石的~(206)Pb/~(238)U年龄加权平均值为300.2±0.9Ma,显示二长花岗岩成岩时代为晚石炭世,代表了华力西中期的一次构造-岩浆事件,为约束南戈壁-阿尔泰构造带晚石炭世深成岩浆活动时限提供了新证据。
