Effect of Copper on Activity and Feeding in the Subtidal Prosobranch Babylonia lutosa (Lamarck) (Gastropoda: Buccinidae)

Individuals of the subtidal gastropod Babylonia lutosa were exposed to three sublethal concentrations of copper (0.02, 0.06 and 0.20 ppm) for four weeks. The percentage of normally active individuals (body extended and moving with the foot attached) decreased and the percentage of snails retracted (body extended, foot not attached, unable to move) and in a distressed stage (body retracted within the shell) increased with increase in copper concentration. Exposure to copper also decreased significantly the ability of an individual to move, and to burrow, but the effect was only observed in week 1, individuals were fully recovered in week 2. Feeding, however, was not affected, both in terms of the percentage number of individuals which fed, and the time spent feeding. Results were discussed with respect to the potential of using this animal as a bioassay tool in monitoring the effect of environmental perturbations on the subtidal community in Hong Kong.     

地洼盆地砂岩铜矿床的构造-流体-成矿体系及演化

我国南方地洼盆地构造演化、流体演化和砂岩铜矿成矿作用三者之间具有密切的关系,处于一个统一的系统之中。盆地早中期的裂陷、坳陷作用及热构造活动导致了富铜矿源层的形成、大气降水的深循环和水／岩相互作用、并形成中高温、压、高盐度的热卤水含铜流体。在构造－流体－砂岩铜矿成矿体系的演化中,构造演化制约了含铜流体的演化和砂岩铜矿的成矿作用,而主要发生于盆地演化的晚期。

本文应用元素、碳同位素和红外光谱分析,研究了长北地区生油岩干酪根的地球化学特征,结果表明该地区生油岩为陆相淡水湖相沉积,干酪根类型主要为腐殖型。随着埋深增加,同类型干酪根的成熟度增大。     

成矿流体对德兴斑岩铜矿床中伊利石结晶度的控制作用

伊利石广泛存在于铜厂大型斑岩铜矿床内,是特征的热液蚀变矿物,其结晶度和膨胀层含量受携带矿质的热液流体量控制。以浸染状强矿化为特征的斑岩体中上部及接触带附近伊利石结晶程度较好,主要是高水／岩比作用的结果。同时指示出伊利石结晶程度好的部位,矿化品位高,蚀变程度也强。

陆相咸化湖泊沉积硫酸盐岩硫同位素组成及其地质意义

现代海洋中的硫酸盐矿物和海水硫酸盐本身常有相似的硫同位素组成,因而可根据现代蒸发岩的硫酸盐同位素来判断古环境。据李任伟［１］引用Ｈｏｌｓｅｒ和Ｋａｐｌａｎ及格里年科的资料报道,海相蒸发岩及其所反映的古海洋硫酸盐的硫同位素组成只在较狭窄的范围内变化,现...

Plutonism in the Variscan Odenwald (Germany): from subduction to collision

 Latest Devonian to early Carboniferous plutonic rocks from the Odenwald accretionary complex reflect the transition from a subduction to a collisional setting. For ∼362 Ma old gabbroic rocks from the northern tectonometamorphic unit I, initial isotopic compositions (ε_Nd=+3.4 to +3.8;⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr =0.7035–0.7053;δ¹⁸O=6.8–8.0‰) and chemical signatures (e.g., low Nb/Th, Nb/U, Ce/Pb, Th/U, Rb/Cs) indicate a subduction-related origin by partial melting of a shallow depleted mantle source metasomatized by water-rich, large ion lithophile element-loaded fluids. In the central (unit II) and southern (unit III) Odenwald, syncollisional mafic to felsic granitoids were emplaced in a transtensional setting at approximately 340–335 Ma B.P. Unit II comprises a mafic and a felsic suite that are genetically unrelated. Both suites are intermediate between the medium-K and high-K series and have similar initial Nd and Sr signatures (ε_Nd=0.0 to –2.5;⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr=0.7044–0.7056) but different oxygen isotopic compositions (δ¹⁸O=7.3–8.7‰ in mafic vs 9.3–9.5‰ in felsic rocks). These characteristics, in conjunction with the chemical signatures, suggest an enriched mantle source for the mafic magmas and a shallow metaluminous crustal source for the felsic magmas. Younger intrusives of unit II have higher Sr/Y, Zr/Y, and Tb/Yb ratios suggesting magma segregation at greater depths. Mafic high-K to shoshonitic intrusives of the southern unit III have initial isotopic compositions (ε_Nd=–1.1 to –1.8;⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr =0.7054–0.7062;δ¹⁸O=7.2–7.6‰) and chemical characteristics (e.g., high Sr/Y, Zr/Y, Tb/Yb) that are strongly indicative of a deep-seated enriched mantle source. Spatially associated felsic high-K to shoshonitic rocks of unit III may be derived by dehydration melting of garnet-rich metaluminous crustal source rocks or may represent hybrid magmas.
