扬子地块西北缘震旦系灯影组铅锌矿的成矿地质背景

按照“构造控盆、盆控相、相控矿”的思路,对铅锌矿形成的沉积盆地、含矿建造、控矿构造、岩相古地理等成矿条件进行研究,分析成矿特点,总结成矿规律。灯影期在扬子西北缘川西式基底上发育北东向、北北东向同生断裂,形成近北东向次级盆地和台地,构成台-盆相间的构造格局,次级盆地为局限盆地潮下相带沉积,台地边缘斜坡出现滑塌砾屑白云岩,沿同生断裂运移的含矿热液流体在角砾状白云岩中聚集成矿。研究结果表明,灯影组铅锌矿成矿明显受盆地半活动类型基底、镁质碳酸盐岩台地中次级盆地、控制次级盆地的同生断裂等因素的控制。     

塔里木盆地库车坳陷北部边缘构造特征

塔里木盆地库车坳陷北部边缘与南天山过渡带结构复杂,是了解塔里木盆地-南天山盆山关系的关键。利用2D、3D地震资料和钻井资料,分析塔里木盆地库车坳陷北部边缘的结构特征、构造样式,对比研究不同区段变形的差异和影响构造样式的主要因素。研究结果表明:①根据基底断裂的发育情况,库车坳陷北部边缘自北向南可划分为三区五带,自浅至深可划分为4个变形层。其中,山前克拉苏构造带以克拉苏断裂为界可细化为高角度基底卷入变形区、低角度基底卷入变形区和盖层滑脱变形区。②库车坳陷盆山过渡带主要发育收缩构造、盐构造和走滑构造,根据其表现形式可划分为15种样式。③库车坳陷北部克拉苏构造带可划分为6个主要的构造段,受先存基底断裂、膏盐岩分布和南天山差异推覆作用的影响,各构造段表现出差异变形的特征。④现今构造主要形成于新生代中晚期,经历了晚二叠世—三叠纪古前陆盆地、侏罗纪—白垩纪坳陷盆地、古近纪—中新世弱收缩挠曲盆地和上新世—第四纪陆内前陆盆地4个演化阶段。     

辽西阜新地区义县组的喷发旋回特征

通过581.64km的路线地质调查和对20.16km的实测剖面的研究,将辽西阜新地区义县组自下而上划分为喷发旋回Ⅰ、Ⅱ、Ⅲ、Ⅳ、Ⅴ;每个喷发旋回的下部为火山碎屑岩组成的爆发相、中上部为熔岩组成的溢流相;熔岩类型主要是玄武岩、玄武安山岩、安山岩及部分英安岩、流纹岩、珍珠岩、黑曜岩、粗安岩;各喷发旋回内部及不同喷发旋回中,具有熔岩的酸性或碱性程度向上逐渐增强的总体变化规律。义县组在紫都台—七家子地区较老河土—十家子、后新秋—苇子沟地区的火山碎屑岩的总厚度偏大,而玄武岩的发育厚度偏小,且老河土—十家子地区缺乏喷发旋回Ⅴ等,空间分布有差异性。     

江西赣中铁矿“红绸带”式铁矿体形态成因及其找矿预测

江西赣中新余铁矿是我国重要的铁矿类型之一,产于震旦纪火山-沉积浅变质岩系硅铁建造中。铁矿体普遍呈现"红绸带"式形态,前人认为是多期次褶皱叠加的结果。本文通过野外调查,在整个铁矿区发现,区域透入性的拉伸线理、A型褶曲十分发育,局部地段甚至出现鞘褶皱;系统测量表明,区域拉伸线理、A型褶皱的脊线走向稳定在295°~320°之间,倾角一般小于25°。推测赣中铁矿经历了强烈的塑性流变,"红绸带"式铁矿体是塑性流变,而非多期褶皱叠加变形的结果;整个铁矿区的原始形态应是一个鼻端向南封闭的巨形鞘褶皱,但变形期后不均匀的构造抬升和剥蚀,导致了不同铁矿区现今地表出露了原始形态的不同部位。结合褶皱构造对铁成矿物质的控制作用和矿区的地层出露状态分析,认为大陂-陂头、寨口-太平山-良山一带皆处于鞘褶皱的前缘部位,具有寻找富大厚矿体的找矿前景,松山-杨家桥处于鞘褶皱的西翼,平剖面上都发育小型鞘褶皱和红绸带式重叠矿体,因而也具有良好的找矿前景。     

琼东南盆地崖北凹陷构造特征及其对油气成藏的影响

在对崖北凹陷地震资料精细解释的基础上,重新认识了凹陷结构和断裂发育特征。研究认为,受5号断裂控制,崖北凹陷整体呈北断南超的构造格局,凹陷可划分为陡坡带、深洼带和缓坡带。2号断裂控制的陵水低凸起对崖北凹陷崖城组煤系烃源岩发育有重要影响。继承性发育的伸展构造是崖北凹陷的主要构造样式,断层型圈闭是该地区发育的主要圈闭类型。崖北凹陷南部、东南部低角度缓坡带圈闭落实,并发育有匹配的煤系烃源岩,是崖北凹陷的有利勘探区域。     

Shallow submarine volcano group in the early stage of island arc development: Geology and petrology of small islands south off Hahajima main island,the Ogasawara Islands

Small Islands south off Hahajima, the southernmost of the Ogasawara Archipelago, consist of primitive basalts (<12 wt.% MgO) to dacite erupted during the transitional stage immediately following boninite volcanism on the incipient arc to sustained typical oceanic arc. Strombolian to Hawaiian fissure eruptions occurring on independent volcanic centers for the individual islands under a shallow sea produced magnesian basalt to dacite fall-out tephras, hyaloclastite and a small volume of pillow lava, which were intruded by NE-trending dikes. These volcanic strata are correlated to the upper part (<40 Ma) of the Hahajima main island. Volcanic rock samples have slightly lower FeO^*/MgO ratios than the present volcanic front lavas, and are divided into three types with high, medium and low La/Yb ratios. Basalt to dacite of high- and medium-La/Yb types show both tholeiitic (TH) and calc-alkaline (CA) differentiation trends. Low-La/Yb type belongs only to TH basalt. The multiple magma types are coexistence on the each island. TH basalts have phenocrysts of olivine, clinopyroxene and plagioclase, while CA basalts are free from plagioclase phenocrysts.     

A Plinian treatment of fallout from Hawaiian lava fountains

A new model is presented which simulates the dispersal and deposition of material from a Hawaiian eruption column. The model treats the Hawaiian column as a coarse-grained Plinian column and uses a modified version of the Wilson and Walker [Wilson, L., Walker, G.P.L., 1987. Explosive volcanic eruptions: VI. Ejecta dispersal in Plinian eruptions: the control of eruption conditions and atmospheric properties. Geophys. J. R. Astron. Soc. 89, 657–679.] Plinian pyroclast dispersal model to simulate the fall out of material during a Hawaiian eruption. The model results are found to be in good agreement with independent estimates of various parameters made for the 1959 Kilauea Iki eruption of Kilauea volcano. The close agreement between the model results and these independent estimates shows that, dynamically, Hawaiian eruptions are indistinguishable from Plinian eruptions. The major differences in the styles and deposits of these two types of eruptions are accounted for by differences in the mass fluxes and gas contents of the erupting magmas and, most fundamentally, by differences in the grainsize distribution of the erupted clasts. Plume heights predicted by the model are greater than those found for previous models of Hawaiian eruptions. This is because previous models did not allow for the progressive fall out of particles from the plume and, more importantly, made no correction for the velocity disequilibrium between gas and clasts when the grainsize distribution is coarse.     

山东莱芜矿山矿田铁矿产出构造类型、矿体型式及大-大中型矿床赋存规律

山东莱芜接触交代-热液铁矿产于中生代构造盆地周边的中奥陶统马家沟组碳酸盐岩与燕山晚期闪长岩接触带及其附近岩石中。矿山矿田的铁矿床可分为4种形态类型、6种构造类型和多种矿体型式。铁矿赋存规律研究表明,大-大中型矿床往往具有复杂和较复杂的矿体形态、单式褶皱背斜和复式褶皱背(向)斜的矿床构造类型,有利的围岩层位为马家沟组五阳山段、阁庄段和八陡段碳酸盐岩,同时矿床有比较大的埋藏深度(多为-200~-600 m),弧形隆起的南、北端和两侧的凸(凹)弯曲部位均为形成大-大中型铁矿床的有利部位。     

Was the lethal eruption of Lake Nyos related to a double CO2/H2O density inversion?

The 1986 lethal eruption of Lake Nyos (Cameroon) was caused by a sudden inversion between deep, CO₂-loaded bottom lake waters and denser, gas-free surface waters. A deep CO₂ source has been found in fluid inclusions which occur predominantly in clinopyroxenes from lherzolitic mantle xenoliths, brought to the surface by the last erupted alkali basalts. P–T conditions of CO₂ trapping correspond to a gas density equal (or higher) than that of liquid water. It is suggested that this dense CO₂, found in many ultrabasic mantle xenoliths worldwide, has accumulated at km depth, below a column of descending lake water. It may remain in a stable state for a long period, as long as the temperature is above the density inversion temperature for pure H₂O/CO₂ systems. At an estimated depth of about 3 km, cooling by descending waters (to about 30 °C) induces a density inversion for the upper part of the CO₂ reservoir. This causes a constant, regular upstream of low-density CO₂ which, in its turn, feeds the shallower lake density inversion.     

汤加王国洪加火山的前世今生

洪加（Hunga）火山位于新西兰—克马德克—斐济俯冲带,该火山于2021年末又开始活动,并在2022年1月14、15日发生了千年一遇的世纪大喷发。喷发柱穿进平流层,形成了一个最高30 km、最宽800 km的蘑菇云,后期的气体火山灰云团几乎环绕南半球一周。喷发所引起的海啸在太平洋沿岸多地造成了灾害。根据现有的资料分析,洪加火山岩浆成分以安山岩为主,岩浆可能是沿着破火山口边缘由富气岩浆团块的“渗漏”驱动喷发的。这次洪加火山大喷发的一个最重要特征是喷发时产生了极为强烈的大气冲击波,这代表了岩浆内火山气体的极大富集。正是这种“超级富气岩浆”的喷发在喷火口位置形成了远超0.1 MPa(1 标准大气压）的出口压强,引发了向全球辐射的冲击波和数千千米以外都能听到的喷发声响。本次火山喷发引发海啸的机制,其一是爆炸冲击波,向外扩张的冲击波推动了海面表层海水的向外扩张;其二是苏特塞式（Surtseyan）喷发本身就有向外排走海水的能力。未来洪加火山喷发形式,很可能是沿着破火山口周边断裂或靠近破火山口中央谷地的熔岩穹丘或熔岩流。苏特塞式喷发会比较常见,但喷发规模不会太大。
