福建“佛昙群”的地质时代和地层特征

关于“佛昙群”的地质时代，在过去的６４ａ中，人们有着５种不同的见解；第三纪、上新世或第四纪、上新世、晚第三纪上新世至早更新世。本文对５个原“佛昙群”露头剖面进行年代地层学研究，结果表明“佛昙群”中包含有中更新世、早更新世、上新世、中新世和渐新世的地层。     

K－Ar测年法在确定沉积岩成岩时代中的应用——以鄂尔多斯盆地为例

根据伊利石Ｋ－Ａｒ测年法研究，确定鄂尔多斯盆地存在两期与构造运动有关的成岩作用事件：即与早期燕山运动有关的侏罗纪（１７０—１６０Ｍａ）和与晚期加里东运动有关的志留－泥盆纪（４２０－３７０Ｍａ）成岩作用时代。为了揭示碎屑物质对Ｋ－Ａｒ年龄的影响和伊利石成岩作用的机制，本文提出了一个通过观察Ｋ－Ａｒ年龄随深度变化的趋势来进行判断的模式。在Ｋ－Ａｒ年龄小于地层时代的条件下，Ｋ－Ａｒ年龄与深度呈正相关，或者很相近的Ｋ－Ａｒ年龄与深度变化无关均标志着没有或很少有碎屑物质的影响；同时，前者指示逐渐埋藏条件下的成岩作用，而后者则反映短暂的热事件引起的成岩作用事件。     

青海东昆仑东段塔妥地区小庙岩组变质岩LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb年龄及其地质意义

东昆仑地区小庙岩组的形成时代长期存在争议,且缺少精确的年代学证据。以东昆仑东段塔妥地区小庙岩组变质碎屑岩为研究对象,采用LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb同位素定年方法,探讨其形成时代。结果显示,锆石具有较宽的年龄谱(1551~2624Ma),可划分为2624~2603Ma、2501~2290Ma、2196~2036Ma和1921~1551Ma年龄组,最后一组可进一步划分为1921~1690Ma和1641~1551Ma两个亚组。其中1921~1690Ma代表了物源区强烈的变质岩浆热事件,具有最强峰值特征(峰值年龄为1783Ma),而2501~2290Ma代表了源区一次变质事件,并有少量2196~2036Ma年龄记录,个别2600Ma的碎屑锆石暗示东昆仑地区存在新太古代的陆核。1641~1551Ma(加权平均年龄为1597Ma)代表了小庙岩组发生变质的时间,而物源区最晚变质年龄为1690Ma,从而确定小庙岩组形成于1690~1597Ma,属中元古代。对比碎屑锆石年龄频谱和东昆仑地区较老变质基底记录的构造-热事件信息,小庙岩组主要沉积物源可能来自于古元古界白沙河岩组,而东昆仑与华北在古元古代末—中元古代早期构造事件的对比揭示,在这一时期二者具有相似的构造演化特征。     

藏东类乌齐地区吉塘岩群的构造地层解析及主要依据

吉塘岩群沿藏东他念他翁—紫曲—吉塘一线分布,主要由片岩、片麻岩和糜棱岩组成构造岩片集合体,变形强烈,同位素年龄自古元古代—晚古生代,有必要进行解体。通过近年来的填图、测制剖面和同位素年龄的测定,并参考前人的资料及综合对比研究,对吉塘岩群(现藏东他念他翁变质杂岩体)进行了解体,将其分解为前奥陶纪—中三叠世类乌齐片麻岩套和前石炭纪吉塘岩群(>340 Ma)2套地质体。然后将类乌齐片麻岩套划分为5个构造岩石地层单元:前奥陶纪查秋赛岩组(438.2±3.6)~700.0 Ma、早二叠世都拉扎片麻岩单元(282.1±0.91)Ma、晚二叠世加压玛片麻岩单元(254.0±8.0)Ma、早三叠纪世加隆片麻岩单元(246.3±0.8)Ma、中三叠世宁达片麻岩单元(227.0±0.6)Ma。吉塘岩群的解体是该区地层研究的重要进展,有助于藏东基础地质研究。

西藏嘎拉勒夕卡岩型铜金矿白云母~(40)Ar-~(39)Ar年龄及其地质意义

西藏嘎拉勒夕卡岩型铜金矿床中铜的资源量达到中型规模,金的资源量达到大型规模。在系统的野外地质调查基础上,选取矿床夕卡岩中保存极好的白云母,测得40Ar-39Ar年龄为91.48Ma±0.68Ma,代表矿床成矿年龄,表明矿床为燕山运动晚期的产物。结合区域地质资料认为,在拉萨地块中北部,成矿年龄约为90Ma的夕卡岩型—斑岩型矿床集中分布在措勤—申扎岩浆弧上;在早白垩世班公湖—怒江洋盆闭合后,狮泉河—永珠—纳木错—嘉黎蛇绿混杂带(Slainajap带)上的弧后盆地和弧间盆地演化成了一系列小洋盆,这些小洋盆的演化与中拉萨地块北部成矿年龄约为90Ma的夕卡岩—斑岩型矿床的形成有更直接的关系。今后宜加大在措勤—申扎岩浆弧上寻找成矿年龄约为90Ma的夕卡岩—斑岩型矿床的力度。     

Age of granitic activity associated with copper–molybdenum mineralization at Malanjkhand, Central India

The Malanjkhand copper–molybdenum deposit in the Bhandara Craton, Central India, is hosted by a granite complex which consists of regionally dominant grey granitoid and pink granitoid confined to the mineralized zone. New SHRIMP RG data on zircons from both granite types are inferred to have crystallized during the same magmatic pulse at ca 2.48 Ga. The discrepancy between zircon age and earlier obtained Rb–Sr whole-rock age is attributed to modification of the Rb–Sr system by hydrothermal overprint. Similarity in petrographic features and chemical affinity in combination with identical age strongly indicate that the pink granite is the hydrothermally altered variety (microclinization and silicification) of the grey granite. The spatially associated, main Cu–Mo mineralization event at Malankhand appears to be broadly contemporaneous with and genetically related to the emplacement of the host granitoids at about 2.48 Ga.     

四川广元地区朝天剖面上二叠统吴家坪组凝灰岩成因及其地质意义

四川广元地区朝天剖面上二叠统吴家坪组凝灰岩位于茅口组顶部王坡层黏土岩之上,其成因可能对认识峨眉山大火成岩省火山活动时限具有重要意义。对朝天剖面吴家坪组2个凝灰岩样品进行全岩矿物含量、地球化学特征、锆石U-Pb定年、锆石微量元素和Hf同位素分析,探讨凝灰岩的成因,进而讨论其对峨眉山大火成岩省火山活动时限的启示。结果表明:广元地区朝天剖面上二叠统吴家坪组凝灰岩主要由黏土矿物组成,锆石U-Pb年龄为(260.1±2.8)Ma,并具有较高的Al2O3/TiO2值(分别为37.90和31.49)、明显的Eu负异常(Eu/Eu*值分别为0.13和0.06)及缺失Nb、Ta负异常;凝灰岩样品中,锆石具有较高的εHf(t)值(7.8~11.4)和较低的Th/Nb值(5.4~14.9),与宾川剖面峨眉山火山序列酸性熔结凝灰岩及上寺剖面上二叠统下部凝灰岩基本一致,而明显不同于清音阁王坡层黏土岩锆石εHf(t)值和Th/Nb值。综上所述,四川广元地区朝天剖面上二叠统吴家坪组凝灰岩的形成与峨眉山大火成岩省酸性火山活动有关,且峨眉山大火成岩省的火山活动时限可能一直持续到晚二叠世早期。     

晚第四纪构造与气候控制下的金沙江支流巴楚河阶地序列

河流阶地的形成过程研究是理解地区气候变化、构造隆升过程的重要手段。巴楚河地处青藏高原东南缘, 隶属于金沙江支流水系, 两岸阶地发育。因其独特的地理位置, 为第四纪以来青藏高原的隆升研究提供了天然场地条件, 对该地区金沙江水系的形成演化过程的研究也具有重要补充作用。野外勘查发现, 巴楚河发育有四级阶地。对阶地堆积物进行宇宙成因核素测年和光释光测年, 得到T1~T4阶地形成时代分别为1.7±0.1 ka、2.3±0.21 ka、4.5±0.5 ka和62.3±2 ka。T4阶地的形成主要为构造活动因素影响, T1~T3阶地的形成和阶地沉积物的堆积主要与气候有关。通过对阶地的拔河高度和形成时代的分析得巴楚河阶地下切速率由慢到快再平稳。研究结果对巴塘地区气候变化及构造运动历史的研究提供重要依据, 促进了该地区金沙江水系形成演化的研究, 与前人对青藏高原全新世以来隆升过程的研究相互呼应。

     

Diapiric emplacement in the upper crust of a granitic body: the La Bazana granite (SW Spain)

The ascent and emplacement of granites in the upper crust is a major geological phenomenon accomplished by a number of different processes. The active processes determine the final geometry of the bodies and, in some favourable cases, the inverse problem of deducing mechanisms can be undertaken by relying on the geometry of plutons. This is the case of the La Bazana granitic pluton, a small Variscan igneous body that intruded Cambrian rocks of the Ossa-Morena Zone (SW Iberian Massif) in the core of a large late upright antiform. The granite shows no appreciable solid-state deformation, but has a late magmatic foliation whose orientation, derived from field observations, defines a gentle dome. The regional attitude of the main foliation in the country rock (parallel to the axial plane of recumbent folds) is NW–SE, but just around the granite, it accommodates to the dome shape of the pluton. Flattening in the host rock on top of the granite is indicated by boudinaged and folded veins, and appears to be caused by an upward pushing of the magma during its emplacement. The dome-shaped foliation of the granite, geometrically and kinematically congruent with the flattening in the host rock, can be related in the same way to the upward pushing of the magma. The level of final emplacement was deduced from the mineral associations in the thermal aureole to be of 7–10 km in depth. Models of the gravity anomaly related to the granite body show that the granite has a teardrop–pipe shape enlarged at its top. Diapiric ascent of the magma through the lower middle crust is inferred until reaching a high viscous level, where final emplacement accompanied by lateral expansion and vertical flattening took place. This natural example suggests that diapirism may be a viable mechanism for migration and emplacement of magmas, at least up to 7–10 km in depth, and it provides natural evidence for theoretical discussion on the ability of magmatic diapirs to pierce the crust.
