Subduction and back-arc activity at the Hikurangi convergent Margin,New Zealand

The Hikurangi Margin is a region of oblique subduction with northwest-dipping intermediate depth seismicity extending southwest from the Kermadec system to about 42°S. The current episode of subduction is at least 16–20 Ma old. The plate convergence rate varies along the margin from about 60 mm/a at the south end of the Kermadec Trench to about 45 mm/a at 42°S. The age of the Pacific lithosphere adjacent to the Hikurangi Trench is not known.The margin divides at about latitude 39°S into two quite dissimilar parts. The northern part has experienced andesitic volcanism for about 18 Ma, and back-arc extension in the last 4 Ma that has produced a back-arc basin onshore with high heaflow, thin crust and low upper-mantle seismic velocities. The extension appears to have arisen from a seawards migration of the Hikurangi Trench north of 39°S. Here the plate interface is thought to be currently uncoupled, as geodetic data indicate extension of the fore-arc basin, and historic earthquakes have not exceededM _s=7.South of 39°S there is no volcanism and a back-arc basin has been produced by downward flexure of the lithosphere due to strong coupling with the subducting plate. Heatflow in the basin is normal. Evidence for strong coupling comes from historic earthquakes of up to aboutM _s=8 and high rates of uplift on the southeast coast of the North Island.The reason for this division of the margin is not known but may be related to an inferred increase, from northeast to southwest, in the buoyancy of the Pacific lithosphere.     

鲕粒,豆粒磷块岩的显微结构和生成特点

晚震旦世陡山沱组和早寒武世渔户村组、辛集组磷矿中有各种鮞粒、豆粒磷块岩。豆粒、鮞粒内核的成分和结构复杂,有来自陆地的各种岩石砂屑、细砾,也有盆内沉积物破碎成的各种内碎屑。鮞粒、豆粒的壳层是同心纹层状磷灰石,它是内核在富磷海水扰动中逐层淀积而成。大部分豆粒、鮞粒在滨海高能浅水中与陆源砂、砾和岔内碎屑沉积在一起,少量鮞粒则沉积在滨外深水低能环境巾。豆粒、鮞粒和碎屑等沉积后又被不同物质胶结。     

非均匀温度场中熔体结晶作用与科马提岩结构成因

具有重要岩石学和构造学意义的科马提岩，最吸引人同时又最令人困惑的特征之一是它的鬣刺结构和分层构造。本文从喷出地表的岩桨冷凝时温度分布、熔体性质与结晶作用的密切联系，把科马提岩浆喷发形成的岩流作为一个冷凝整体。通过与金属铸锭浇注成形和矿石冶炼生产的比较，发现它们在冷凝固结过程中温度场特征、熔体的性质、结晶能力和结晶方式都有十分相似的特点，并以此为出发点详细解析了科马提岩的鬣刺结构和岩石分层构造的形成     

大青山造山带中基底再造杂岩的特征及其指示意义

大青山造山带中基底再造杂岩主要由高温韧性剪切变形变质作用的糜棱片麻岩类、部分重烙作用形成的混合岩化糜棱片麻岩类及太古宙地壳残块三部分组成。进一步研究表明该基底再造条岩不仅可以作为一个特定的构造岩性单元，属于造山带根部地壳的一部分，而且其中前两部分既不属于太古富变质上壳岩和侵入岩系，也不属于早元古代变质上亮岩，而是早元古代造山带演化过程中，变形变质作用和部分重熔作用对太古宙基底综合改造作用的产物。基底再造杂岩的研究为进一步探讨前寒武纪克拉通内硅铝壳造山作用的性质、规模和成因机制提供了极为重要的地质证据和信息。

蒋家沟泥石流堆积物的时代及成因

据石英ESR和~14C测年结果,蒋家沟泥石流堆积可分为晚更新世形成的古泥石流堆积和近代泥石流堆积两类。古泥石流堆积再分为早、中、晚三期。扫描镜下观察蒋家沟古泥石流堆积中的石英砂表面机械结构特征和现代泥石流十分相同,例如两者的颗粒都呈尖锐棱角状,粒面上均发育很好的贝壳状断裂结构、解理面、凹坑、擦痕(或擦沟)等,这表明二者的形成环境是相同的。

Petrology of spinel granulites from Araku, Eastern Ghats, India, and a petrogenetic grid for sapphirine-free rocks in the system FMAS

Abstract Spinel-quartz-cordierite and spinel-quartz are found as relic prograde assemblages in Fe-rich granulites from the Araku area, Eastern Ghats belt, India. Subsequent reactions produced orthopyroxene + sillimanite in the former association and garnet + sillimanite in the latter. The first reaction is univariant in the FMAS system, but is trivariant in the present case because of the presence of Zn and Fe³⁺ in spinel. The second reaction also has high variance because of Zn and Fe³⁺, but also because of the presence of Ca in garnet. Thermobarometry shows that the metamorphic conditions were approximately 950° C and 8.5 kbar and the fo ₂ was near the NNO buffer. In Fe-rich bulk compositions and low- P -high- T conditions of metamorphism, two of the univariant reactions around the invariant point [Sa], namely (Sa, Hy) and (Sa, Cd), change topology due to reverse partitioning of Fe-Mg between coexisting garnet and spinel. An alternative partial petrogenetic grid in the system FMAS is constructed for such conditions and is applied satisfactorily to several sapphirine-free spinel granulites. It is shown that bulk composition ( X _Fe and Zn) exerts greater control on the stability of spinel + quartz than fo ₂. The effect of the presence of Zn and Fe³⁺ in spinel on the proposed grid is evaluated. Reaction textures in the Araku spinel granulites can be explained from the petrogenetic grid as due to near-isobaric cooling.     

新疆黄山杂岩体矿物学特征及其意义

黄山杂岩体造岩矿物有橄榄石、斜方辉石、单斜辉石、斜长石、角闪石和黑云母。其中斜方辉石的多色性不是由Fe~(2+)引起,而是由Ti~(4+)引起。单斜辉石结晶后常与岩浆继续发生化学反应,形成一种岩浆岩结构——角闪反应补丁结构。橄榄石中镍含量的亏损程度反映杂岩体曾经历过硫化物熔离作用。单斜辉石Si,Al~Ⅳ,Ti的变化表明杂岩体属于拉斑玄武岩系列。超镁铁岩中K,Ba,Th,Hf等元素反常的地球化学行为是由该岩石中黑云母矿物引起。
