Hydrogen and oxygen isotope studies of metamorphic fluid-rock interactions in the Dabie Mountains

Hydrogen and oxygen isotope studies were carried out on mineral separates from high to ultrahigh pressure metamorphic rocks at Huangzhen and Shuanghe in the eastern Dabie Mountains, East China. The δ¹⁸O values of eclogites cover a wide range of −5‰ to+9‰, but the δD values of micas fall within a narrow range of −85% to −70‰. Both equilibrium and disequilibrium oxygen isotope fractionations were observed between quartz and the other minerals, with reversed fractionations between omphacite and garnet in some eclogite samples. The δ¹⁸ O values of −5‰ to −1‰ for some of the eclogites represent the oxygen isotope compositions of their protoliths which underwent meteoric water-rock interaction prior to plate subduction. The preservation of oxygen isotope heterogeneity in the eclogites implies a channelized flow of fluids during progressive metamorphism caused by rapid subduction. Retrograde metamorphism has caused oxygen and hydrogen isotope disequilibria between some of the minerals, but the fluid for retrograde reactions was internally buffered in the stable isotope compositions.

青海泽多桌肉地区花岗闪长岩中发育大量暗色闪长质包体。通过对花岗闪长岩(寄主岩石)与暗色包体的地球化学研究发现,花岗闪长岩(寄主岩石)的SiO_2含量为w(SiO_2)=61.61%~68.80%,A/CNK=0.91~0.99,属于偏铝质钙碱性花岗岩特征;暗色包体中发育针状磷灰石,暗色包体的SiO_2含量为w(SiO_2)=52.66%~66.99%,碱度率AR=2.08~2.26(大于1),里特曼指数σ=1.89~8.67,固结指数SI=16~24.74,属过铝质钙碱性花岗岩。稀土元素分析显示,花岗闪长岩稀土总量w(ΣREE)=117.44×10~(-6)~265.68×10~(-6);暗色包体稀土总量w(ΣREE)=184.05×10~(-6)~342.11×10~(-6),总量高于寄主岩石;暗色包体和寄主花岗岩有着相似的稀土元素配分模式,显示轻稀土富集,重稀土亏损,轻重稀土元素分馏明显的特征。微量元素分析显示,暗色包体微量元素的分布型式与寄主岩微量元素特征基本一致,大离子亲石元素K、Rb、Ba相对富集,高场强元素Nb、Ta、Zr、Hf相对亏损,反映了岩浆混合作用的特征。在花岗闪长岩中获得LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb年龄为202.49 Ma±0.63 Ma,属晚三叠世。表明泽多桌肉花岗闪长岩属于晚三叠世以来的造山带伸展崩塌造成岩石圈较快速减薄以及幔源岩浆底侵作用的发生,并导致地壳岩石接近熔融温度产生壳源岩浆而成岩。     

An interactive system to assist mineral identification in ore microscopy

An interactive computer system has been developed to assist the mineral identification in ore microscopy. The reference file of the system consists of optical, mechanical, and chemical properties of about 130 ore minerals. The properties are name, chemical formula, color, bireflectance, anisotropism, internal reflection, reflectance at wavelengths of 470, 546, 589, and 650 nm, and polishing hardness and micro-indentation hardness. All the properties except reflectance and microindentation hardness are qualitative or semi-qualitative. Most of the properties are given as characters relative to the more common minerals. This implies that most of the identification processes advance on the basis of the comparison between a subject mineral and coexisting minerals. For this reason, the system asks a user at first to input already identified mineral names. This is quite different from the mineral identification procedures used in petrographic microscopy. To reduce the number of possible minerals, the system presents a series of questions to a user, and the user selects any of the prepared answers according to his observation. The user can also choose any desired question independently of the sequence. The user is expected to be able to recognize some common minerals, such as pyrite, chalcopyrite, galena, and hematite, without the assistance of the system.

山东张家洼矽卡岩型铁矿矿物学特征及其对成矿环境的指示意义

张家洼矽卡岩型铁矿位于华北克拉通东南部,赋存在石炭系本溪组与奥陶系马家沟组之间的假整合面处及闪长岩体与奥陶系马家沟组大理岩的接触带附近,富铁矿石资源量已达大型规模。研究发现矽卡岩矿物种类在内外接触带分布有一定区别,内带为石榴石等钙质矽卡岩矿物,而外带为阳起石、金云母等镁质矽卡岩矿物,整体构成钙镁质矽卡岩。对矽卡岩矿物系统的研究表明,透辉石及石榴石发育有环带,其氧化物含量随矿物环带的形成比例不断变化,暗示酸碱度及氧逸度随着成矿流体的演化而发生相应的变化,即由早期矽卡岩阶段的相对还原的酸性环境演化为退化蚀变阶段相对氧化的碱性环境从而导致铁质逐渐萃取多次富集、沉淀,后期随着磁铁矿的沉淀又逐渐在硫化物阶段转化为还原环境生成金属硫化物。
