The mechanisms of shallow earthquakes and the monitoring of a comprehensive test ban

The ability of seismological criteria to identify earthquakes from underground explosions depends partly on the orientation of the earthquake source. Well-determined double-couple moment tensor solutions for a large number of earthquakes have been published in the Harvard centroid moment tensor (CMT) and United Slates Geological Survey (USGS) catalogues. Statistical analyses of these catalogues indicate that the distribution of the orientation of earthquake mechanisms is not random. The distribution of the T axes shows significant clustering around the downward vertical, indicating that a larger number of earthquake mechanisms radiate compressional P -wave energy to teleseismic distances from near the maximum of the radiation pattern than is predicted if earthquake sources are randomly oriented double couples. The clustered T axes correspond to compressional dip-slip mechanisms, and it is this type of mechanism which is believed to cause both the m _b: M _s (the ratio of body-wave to surface-wave magnitude) and first-motion criteria to misidentify an earthquake as an explosion.     

Deconvolution of teleseismic recordings for mantle structure

Delineation of detailed mantle structure frequently requires the separation of source signature and structural response from seismograms recorded at teleseismic distances. This deconvolution problem can be posed in a log-spectral domain where the operation of time-domain convolution is reduced to an additive form. The introduction of multiple events recorded at many stations leads to a system of consistency equations that must be honoured by both the source time functions and the impulse responses associated with propagation paths between sources and receivers. The system is inherently singular, and stabilization is accomplished through the supply of an initial estimate of the source time function. Although alternative choices exist, an effective estimate is derived from the eigenimage associated with the largest eigenvalue in a singular-value decomposition of the suite of aligned seismograms corresponding to a given event. The relation of the deconvolution scheme to simultaneous least-squares deconvolution is examined. Application of the methodology to broadband teleseismic P waveforms recorded on the Canadian National Seismograph Network demonstrates the retrieval of effective Green's functions including secondary phases associated with upper-mantle structure.

陕西直罗油田长_2油层组储层特征

直罗油田主力产层为三叠系延长组长2油层组，储层以三角洲分支河道砂体为主，岩性主要为长石细砂岩，大量的自生矿物对原生孔隙产生了很大程度的破坏。较强的成岩后生作用使得储层以粒间溶孔及原生粒间余孔为主要储集空间。储层孔隙结构表现为以小孔隙、小喉道为主要特征，非均质性较强。物性分布主要与其在砂体中的分布部位有关。

论界牌峪地区“陀状”角砾岩成因及找矿意义

湖南石门界牌峪地区存在大量的所谓“陀状”角砾岩，它们互不相连，外观圆形，有的聚集成群或者呈完全孤立的山包。角砾岩地表多为椭圆状和等轴状，与围岩多呈刺穿状接触。通过地质学、岩石学和地球化学等方面研究，认为该区“陀状”角砾岩是一种由热泉气体及部分物质在封闭还原条件下产生急剧爆发所形成的特殊的角砾岩群。它们是一种极好的容矿控矿体，具有重要的找矿意义     

杨溪岩体中黑云母的特征及其地质意义

杨溪岩体黑云母为１Ｍ型的铁质黑云母，其特征说明岩体为壳源改造型花岗岩，但有幔源物质混入。离铌钽矿化点较近的黑云母表现出明显富铝、多锰、贫镁、少硅、少钛的特点。离白钨矿矿区较近的黑云母与远离矿区的黑云母在特征上差别不大，说明杨溪岩体黑云母的特征变化对成矿影响不大，但岩浆活动是重要的成矿因素之一。     

Changchengite—A New Iridium Bismuthide-Sulphide from the Yanshan Mountains

Changchengite occurs in chromite orebodies in dunite and in platinum placer deposits in chromite orebodies nearby. The mineral occurs as massive aggregates or veinlets on margins of iridisite (IrS2) and replaces it. Opaque. Lustre metallic. Colour steel-black. Streak black. Hm = 3.7. VHN20= 165 kg/ mm2. Isotropic. Cleavage none. Density 11.96 g/ cm3. Seven electron microprobe analyses give the following mean chemical results (wt. %): S 7.2, Cu 0.3, Te 0.4, Ir 41.2, Pt 2.8 and Bi 47.3 with total 99.1. The simplified formula is IrBiS. The strongest X-ray powder diffraction lines (hkl, d, I) are 210, 2.75 (70); 211, 2.51 (60); 311, 1.860 (100); 440. 1.090 (50) and 600, 1.027 (50). The X-ray powder diffraction pattern is similar to that of mayingite. After the diffraction data are indexed the mineral is determined to be cubic. The space group is P213 with a = 0.6164(4) nm, V = 0.2342 nm3 and Z = 4.
