化学与稳定同位素指纹示踪原油类污染:以广东南海两次小型溢油事件为例

化学和稳定同位素指纹是目前国际上用于示踪石油类污染来源及其环境命运的有效技术。通过气相色谱-质谱(GC—MS)分析可疑重油与被污染水体及植物表面污染物的饱和烃和芳烃分布以及生物标志化合物姥姣烷、植烷、“不可分辨的混合物”(UCM)等化学指纹特征,对比可疑重油与被污染水体表面漂浮重油的沥青质同位素组成,追踪了发生在广东省南海市的两次小型重油泄漏事件。结果揭示,2002年10月16日晚发生的污染事件源于某饲料公司锅炉房的重油泄漏;而2002年10月25日的泄漏事故则是某加油站重油渗漏所致。     

论碰撞作用时间

以中国及欧洲大陆一些碰撞带所测得的同位素年龄为基础,讨论板块从俯冲到碰撞的过程,认为依次发生了如下事件：俯冲板块的运移速度减慢,洋壳在地表消失,开始碰撞,形成强构造变形与动力变质作用,发生一系列的岩浆活动,最后才隆升成山。这些事件都具有不同的同位素年龄。碰撞的初始作用时间,应该在所测年龄最新的洋壳消失以后,在强构造变形与动力变质作用发生之前。显然,如果只想使用任何一种地质事件的年龄来确定碰撞作用的初始作用时间都是很困难的。俯冲板块运移的初次减速很可能是由于从原来具有典型大洋岩石圈结构的板块俯冲,转变为洋陆过渡型板块俯冲所致。对于较小的、强度不大的板块来说,如中国大陆地块群,在板块碰撞与拼合之后,大陆板块仍可发生地壳转动或大幅度的位移。沿碰撞带主断层面贯入的“钉合岩体”可以是同构造期形成的,也可能是继续碰撞作用的产物。     

北天山温泉群的地质特征、时代和构造意义

北天山温泉群长期以来被认为是古元古代的变质岩。最新的野外调查和锆石SHRIMP U-Pb 测年结果表明,温泉群可 以划分为三个岩石构造单元：（1）前早新元古代变质火山岩和变质沉积岩,主要包括斜长角闪岩、云母片岩、石英片岩、 黑云母片麻岩、大理岩等;（2）早新元古代混合岩和正片麻岩;（3）早古生代未变质变形的辉长岩和闪长岩。上述三种岩 石组合类型均被后期二云母花岗岩（脉）所侵入。温泉县以南的混合岩和花岗片麻岩中锆石的SHRIMP U-Pb 年龄分别为 926±12 Ma 和907±11 Ma,与天山地区出露的新元古代花岗岩类的时代基本一致。结合前人对花岗片麻岩Nd 同位素组成 的研究,花岗片麻岩应为古老地壳物质部分熔融的产物,而同期的混合岩化作用则是新元古代地壳加厚和部分熔融的直接 地质证据。辉长岩和闪长岩侵入到温泉群花岗片麻岩和斜长角闪岩中,其中闪长岩的锆石SHRIMP U-Pb 年龄为452±7 Ma, 并含有1.1 Ga 和1.4 Ga 的继承锆石。根据前人的研究成果,本区早古生代辉长岩和闪长岩具有岛弧岩浆岩的地球化学特征, 可能与准噶尔-巴尔喀什洋的俯冲作用有关,这一俯冲增生作用最终导致伊犁北部与哈萨克斯坦陆块在志留纪拼贴造山, 并使温泉群前寒武纪变质岩与侵入岩发生变质变形作用。     

甲烷流体活动与沉积物中碳、氮同位素组成响应——南海东北部海洋IV号地区研究

南海东沙群岛东北部海洋IV号地区GC16站重力柱状沉积物中的有机碳、总氮,以及自生碳酸盐岩矿物的无机碳同位素组成分析结果表明,甲烷流体活动区硫酸盐甲烷转换带(SMTZ—sulfate methane transition zone)是重要的生物地球化学界面,该带内沉积物中有机碳、氮与无机碳同位素组成变化明显。GC16站SMTZ上界面以下的沉积物中有机碳、氮同位素组成分别比其上的沉积物负偏1.4‰PDB和0.93‰,反映该带内甲烷缺氧氧化作用(AOM—anaerobic oxidation of methane)与氨氧化作用发育。无机碳同位素组成表明SMTZ界面之下沉积物中的自生碳酸盐岩矿物为以微生物为媒介的甲烷驱动成因,地质历史时期(至柱状沉积物底部沉积时期)曾发生过2次较强烈的CH₄流体活动;目前该区甲烷流体活动较弱,甲烷流体影响深度与SMTZ上界面一致,未能到达海底。     

Effects of rainfall on soil moisture and water movement in a subalpine dark coniferous forest in southwestern China

Water content and movement in soil profile and hydrogen isotope composition (δD) of soil water, rainwater, and groundwater were examined in a subalpine dark coniferous forest in the Wolong National Nature Reserve in Sichuan, China, following rainfall events in 2003–2004. Light rainfall increased water content in the litter and at soil depth of 0–80 cm, but the increased soil water was lost in several days. Heavy rainfall increased soil water content up to 85% at depths of 0–40 cm. Following the light rainfall in early spring, the δD of water from the litter, humus, illuvial, and material layers decreased first and then gradually reached the pre‐rainfall level. In summer, light rainfall reached the litter humus, and illuvial layer, but did not hit the material layer. Heavy rainfall affected δD of water in all layers. The δD of soil interflow slightly fluctuated with rainfall events. The δD of shallow groundwater did not differ significantly among all rainfall events. Light rainfall altered the shape of δD profile curve of water in the upper layer of soil, whereas heavy rainfall greatly affected the shape of δD profile curve of water in all soil layers. Following the heavy rainfall, preferential flow initially occurred through macropores, decayed plant roots, and rocks at different depths of soil profile. With continuing rainfall, the litter and surface soil were nearly saturated or fully saturated, and infiltration became homogeneous and plug‐like. Forest soil water, particularly in deeper soil profile, was slightly affected by rainfall and, thus, can be a source of water supply for regional needs, particularly during dry seasons.

扎鲁特旗地区发育的一套中性火山岩,前人曾将其置于二叠纪“大石寨组”、“青凤山组”,缺少古生物资料和测年数据.本次1：25万区域地质调查,在原1：20万划分的“大石寨组”、“青凤山组”的安山岩中采集了同位素测年样品,采用全岩激光⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar法测年,对火山岩样品进行了年代学研究,结果表明火山岩年龄为（172.7±2.0）~（165.2±1.3）Ma.鉴于这套火山岩地层岩石组合特征清楚,时代依据充分,在区域上具有一定的延展性和可填图性,故将这套火山岩地层重新厘定为中侏罗统塔木兰沟组.     

湖南祁东清水塘铅锌矿床成矿物质来源同位素示踪

清水塘铅锌矿床位于湖南省祁东县北东部,是一个中型矿床。在详细的野外地质调查基础上,本文通过矿石硫、铅同位素,含矿石英氢、氧同位素和含矿方解石碳、氧同位素等综合研究,探讨清水塘铅锌矿床成矿物质来源和成因。硫同位素研究结果表明,清水塘铅锌矿床中黄铁矿、方铅矿和闪锌矿的硫同位素δ~(34)S介于-7.41‰~2.91‰之间,重晶石的硫同位素δ~(34)S介于11.49‰~12.34‰之间,表明矿石中的硫主要来源于深源岩浆,并受到上部地壳物质的混染。黄铁矿、方铅矿和闪锌矿的Pb同位素~(206)Pb/~(204)Pb介于17.810~18.710之间,~(207)Pb/~(204)Pb介于15.497~15.726之间,~(208)Pb/~(204)Pb介于37.858~38.834之间;其中闪锌矿变化范围略偏大,表明矿石中的铅主要来源于地壳,可能混有少量地幔物质。含矿石英的氢、氧同位素δD_(SMOW)介于-87.4‰~-79.3‰之间,δ~(18)O_(H_2O)介于-8.10‰~0.63‰之间,表明成矿流体以岩浆水为主,晚期有大气降水的混入。含矿方解石的碳、氧同位素δ~(13)C_(VPDB)介于-5.3‰~-4.6‰之间,δ~(18)O_(SMOW)介于12.30‰~13.48‰之间;与地层灰岩的δ~(13)C_(VPDB)(0.9‰~2.6‰),δ~(18)O_(SMOW)(21.86‰~23.39‰)不一致;说明成矿流体中的碳主要来自深源岩浆。以上研究表明,清水塘铅锌矿床的成矿物质主要来自地壳熔融形成的岩浆,混合作用是成矿的主要机制。     

青海牛鼻子梁镍矿勘查区闪长岩U-Pb年代学、地球化学及Hf同位素研究

本文对牛鼻子梁镁铁质-超镁铁质杂岩体中产出的闪长岩进行了详细的U-Pb年代学、岩石地球化学和Hf同位素分析,以便对岩石的成因及南祁连造山带对柴达木盆地的俯冲效应予以研究。闪长岩中锆石LAICP-MS U-Pb定年结果表明,闪长岩的形成时代为361±3 Ma(MSWD=0.049),即晚泥盆世。岩石地球化学方面,SiO_2含量为53.44%~58.27%,Na_2O+K_2O为4.80%~6.39%,K_2O/Na_2O比值为0.33~0.97,显示出富钠的特征,岩石由钙碱性序列向高钾钙碱性序列过渡。微量元素原地地幔标准化蛛网图上显示相对富集大离子亲石元素(Rb、K)及轻稀土,相对亏损高场强元素(Ta、Nb、Zr),同时Th含量介于2.03×10~(-6)~6.57×10~(-6)之间,Th/Ta比值为2.73~12.82之间,显示为壳幔混染作用的产物,另外据闪长岩中发现的辉长岩包体也表明了壳幔岩浆的混合。闪长岩Hf同位素显示,岩石的ε_(Hf)(t)值和二阶段模式年龄(TDM2)分别介于±6.41~±9.36和714~878Ma之间。上述结果表明,岩体的原始岩浆是一种幔源物质为主,混合新生陆壳部分熔融的产物。综合区域岩石构造背景的研究,认为牛鼻子梁闪长岩岩体形成于南祁连向柴达木板块俯冲碰撞后伸展的环境。     

U–Pb dating of zircon and cassiterite from the Early Cretaceous Jiaojiguan iron-tin polymetallic deposit,implications for magmatism and metallogeny of the Tengchong area,western Yunnan,China

The newly discovered Jiaojiguan deposit, a medium-scale skarn iron-tin polymetallic deposit on the Sino-Burma boundary of Yunnan Province (SW China), is spatially associated with the biotite monzonitic granite. Here, we report new in situ zircon LA-MC-ICP-MS U–Pb ages, trace element and Hf isotope data from the granite, and U–Pb dating ages of cassiterite from the ore bodies. In this study, we obtain a weighted mean ²⁰⁶Pb/²³⁸U age of 124.1 ± 1.4 Ma for the zircon and a ²⁰⁷Pb/²⁰⁶Pb-²³⁸U/²⁰⁶Pb intercept age of 123.8 ± 2.2 Ma for the cassiterite. The granite crystallized during the Early Cretaceous, with zircons exhibiting εHf(t) values from ?5.8 to ?0.6 and two-stage Hf model ages (T_DM2) of 1.21–1.54 Ga. The close temporal and spatial links between pluton emplacement and ore-forming events suggest that magmatic-hydrothermal events were the key factors that triggered the genesis of the iron-tin polymetallic deposits in the area. Regional geochronological data show that tin mineralization took place three times during the Cretaceous–Palaeogene in the Tengchong block due to re-melting of the underlying supposed Proterozoic (1.5 ± 0.5 Ga) Sn-rich strata/materials. Compared with those in the Bangong–Nujiang metallogenic belt (BNMB), we propose that the Cretaceous iron-tin polymetallic mineralization events in Tengchong–Baoshan closely resemble those of the Bangong–Nujiang belt in northern Tibet, both of which have experienced similar tectono-magmatic-metallogenic histories since the Mesozoic.     

海南省新村钼矿床LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb和辉钼矿Re-Os年龄及其地质意义

新村钼矿床是海南省近年来发现的具中型规模的钼矿床。文章对赋矿二长花岗岩进行LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb同位素测年,获得~(206)Pb/~(238)U年龄加权平均值为(102.0±1.5)Ma(MSWD=2.3);对辉钼矿进行Re-Os同位素定年,获得5件样品的模式年龄范围为(97.29±1.43)Ma~(98.52±1.55)Ma,加权平均年龄为(97.84±0.64)Ma,等时线年龄为(98.90±3.40)Ma,成岩年龄与成矿年龄在误差范围内一致。辉钼矿的Re含量和锆石Hf同位素特征指示新村钼矿的成岩成矿物质来自于壳幔混源。新村钼矿床的成岩成矿年龄与海南岛最重要的钼成矿期(95~105 Ma)一致,属中国东部早白垩世晚期—晚白垩世早期钼成矿事件的一部分,与该时期岩石圈大规模拉伸减薄、软流圈上涌及强烈壳-幔作用密切相关。
