内蒙古大青山地区英安岩LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb年龄及其构造意义

在内蒙古大青山地区逆冲推覆构造所截切的英安岩中获得锆石~(207)Pb/~(206)Pb表面年龄加权平均值为1870±19Ma,认为英安岩为华北克拉通古元古代末—新元古代一次裂解事件的产物.同时,据安山岩锆石U-Pb年龄谐和度(102)较好的锆石~(206)Pb/~(238)U表面年龄436±4Ma及英安岩锆石U-Pb年龄谐和度(104)较好的锆石~(206)Pb/~(238)U表面年龄153±2Ma和160±2Ma,表明大青山地区逆冲推覆构造存在构造复活或构造追踪现象。这一认识为大青山地区逆冲推覆构造的研究积累了新的资料,提供了新的研究思路。     

西藏拉萨地体西北部革吉地区两期早白垩世岩浆作用——锆石U-Pb年龄、Hf同位素和地球化学特征

邦巴岩体位于拉萨地块西部革吉地区,由主体花岗岩、花岗闪长岩、闪长质包体及一系列近平行、南北向展布的花岗斑岩脉体组成。野外地质调查和LA-MC-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb定年表明,革吉地区白垩纪的两期岩浆活动分别发生在131~132Ma和127Ma。早期岩浆作用形成主体花岗岩、花岗闪长岩及闪长质包体,具有以下特征:(1)明显富集K、Cs等大离子亲石元素,亏损Nb、Ti、Zr等高场强元素;(2)具有明显的负Eu异常(Eu/Eu*=0.49~0.61)及负Ce异常;(3)具负εHf(t)值(-3.2~-0.3)及古老的地壳模式年龄(1.210~1.399Ga);(4)初始Sr同位素比值为0.70424~0.71472,εHf(t)值为-5.70~-5.54。晚期岩浆作用形成花岗斑岩脉体,具有以下特征:(1)富集K、Cs等大离子亲石元素,强烈亏损Nb、Ta、Ti等高场强元素;(2)基本不具有负Eu异常或具有轻微的负Eu异常(Eu/Eu*=0.74~0.87);(3)具有更老的Hf同位素地壳模式年龄(1.226~1.576Ga)及更负的大范围变化的εHf(t)值(-6.1~-0.7)。晚期岩浆作用锆饱和温度(777~796℃)及轻稀土元素不饱和温度(794~812℃)均高于早期岩浆的锆饱和温度(661~762℃)及轻稀土元素不饱和温度(750~769℃)。上述特征表明,两期岩浆作用均为中拉萨地块古老基底部分与地幔物质混染部分熔融的产物,随着岩浆作用的持续进行,岩浆中的古老地壳组分增加,熔体温度也增加,可能与南向俯冲的班公-怒江洋壳回转驱动的地幔岩浆活动向北迁移有关。     

区域地球化学特征及其主控因素——对内蒙古珠斯楞地区找矿的意义

在1∶5万水系沉积物测量的基础上,对内蒙古额济纳旗珠斯愣地区的地球化学特征及其主控因素进行初步分析,并对元素分布特征、元素相关性分析、单元素异常与构造之间关系、综合异常与构造之间关系进行了探讨。研究发现,Cu、Au、Sb为区内具一定潜力的找矿元素,与呼伦西白-珠斯楞海尔罕反"S"形构造带南端内、外旋面的转换的珠斯楞海尔罕一带形成一个与断裂构造吻合度较高的、半环性的成矿成晕中心。因而推断,区内具有形成与中酸性侵入岩有关的热液铜多金属矿的可能,其中珠斯楞海尔罕铜金矿和道布青乌苏南北金锑矿2个找矿靶区严格受呼伦西白-珠斯楞海尔罕反"S"形构造的控制。     

Protection of marine birds and turtles at St Brandon’s Rock,Indian Ocean,requires conservation of the entire atoll

A survey of seabirds and turtles at St Brandon’s Rock, 400 km north of Mauritius, was undertaken in 2010. We estimated that 1 084 191 seabirds comprising seven breeding species and excluding non-breeders were present at the archipelago and we counted 279 turtle tracks and nesting pits of green turtles Chelonia mydas. Hawksbill turtles Eretmochelys imbricata were also present. Analyses of 30 different islets that make up the atoll showed that the seabird species mostly partitioned their use of islets based on islet size, with four species preferring larger islets and two species preferring smaller islets. Alien species introduced historically are still present and other threats, such as shipwrecks, remain. We propose conservation and other measures that should adequately protect the birds, turtles and coral reef by treating the atoll as a system.

Metallogeny of the Baiyangping Lead‐Zinc Polymetallic Ore Concentration Area,Northern Lanping Basin of Yunnan Province,China

The Lanping Basin in the Nujiang‐Lancangjiang‐Jinshajiang (the Sanjiang) area of northeastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau is an important part of eastern Tethyan metallogenic domain. This basin hosts a number of large unique sediment‐hosted Pb‐Zn polymetallic deposits or ore districts, such as the Baiyangping ore concentration area which is one of the representative ore district. The Baiyangping ore concentration area can be divided into the east and west ore belts, which were formed in a folded tectogene of the India‐Asia continental collisional setting and was controlled by a large reverse fault. Field observations reveal that the Mesozoic and Cenozoic sedimentary strata were outcropped in the mining area, and that the orebodies are obviously controlled by faults and hosted in sandstone and carbonate rocks. However, the ore‐forming elements in the east ore belt are mainly Pb‐Zn‐Sr‐Ag, while Pb‐Zn‐Ag‐Cu‐Co elements are dominant in the west ore belt. Comparative analysis of the C‐O‐Sr‐S‐Pb isotopic compositions suggest that both ore belts had a homogeneous carbon source, and the carbon in hydrothermal calcite is derived from the dissolution of carbonate rock strata; the ore‐forming fluids were originated from formation water and precipitate water, which belonged to basin brine fluid system; sulfur was from organic thermal chemical sulfate reduction and biological sulfate reduction; the metal mineralization material was from sedimentary strata and basement, but the difference of the material source of the basement and the strata and the superimposed mineralization of the west ore belt resulted in the difference of metallogenic elements between the eastern and western metallogenic belts. The Pb‐Zn mineralization age of both ore belts was contemporary and formed in the same metallogenetic event. Both thrust formed at the same time and occurred at the Early Oligocene, which is consistent with the age constrained by field geological relationship.     

Provenance Study of Fe–Ti Oxide Minerals in the Quaternary Sediments in Yichang Area and Its Implication of Formation Time of the Yangtze Three Gorges, China

The Three Gorges are considered to be critical to understand the formation of Yangtze River. Recent research results suggest that the Yangtze Three Gorges was created during the Quaternary but the exact time is debatable. Fe–Ti oxide minerals are seldom used to study sediment provenance, expecially using scanning electron microscopy(SEM), and energy dispersive spectrometer(EDS). In this study, the provenance of Quaternary sediments in Yichang area, which is located to the east of the Yangtze Three Gorges, was investigated by using SEM and EDS to research Fe–Ti oxides. The Panzhihua vanadium titanomagnetite and Emeishan basalt outcrop are located to the west of the Three Gorges. Further, the materials from them are observed in the Quaternary sediments of Yichang area. Fe–Ti oxide minerals from the Huangling granite are observed in the Yunchi and Shanxiyao Formations, which were formed before 0.75 Ma B.P., whereas Fe–Ti oxide minerals from the Huangling granite, Panzhihua vanadium titanomagnetite, and Emeishan basalt are observed in the riverbed and fifth-terrace sediments of the Yangtze River, which were formed after 0.73 Ma B.P.. Thus, we can infer that the Three Gorges formed after the deposition of the Shanxi Formation and before the fifth-terrace; i.e., 0.75–0.73 Ma B.P..     

Ore-forming Fluid and Mineral Source of the Hongshi Copper Deposit in the Kalatage Area, East Tianshan, Xinjiang, NW China

The Hongshi copper deposit is located in the middle of the Kalatage ore district in the northern segment of the Dananhu-Tousuquan island-arc belt in East Tianshan, Xinjiang, NW China. This study analyses the fluid inclusions and H, O, and S stable isotopic compositions of the deposit. The fluid-inclusion data indicate that aqueous fluid inclusions were trapped in chalcopyrite-bearing quartz veins in the gangue minerals. The homogenization temperatures range from 108°C to 299°C, and the salinities range from 0.5% to 11.8%, indicating medium to low temperatures and salinities. The trapping pressures range from 34.5 MPa to 56.8 MPa. The δ18OH2O values and δD values of the fluid range from ?6.94‰ to ?5.33‰ and from ?95.31‰ to ?48.20‰, respectively. The H and O isotopic data indicate that the ore-forming fluid derived from a mix of magmatic water and meteoric water and that meteoric water played a significant role. The S isotopic composition of pyrite ranges from 1.9‰ to 5.2‰, with an average value of 3.1‰, and the S isotopic composition of chalcopyrite ranges from ?0.9‰ to 4‰, with an average value of 1.36‰, implying that the S in the ore-forming materials was derived from the mantle. The introduction of meteoric water decreased the temperature, volatile content, and pressure, resulting in immiscibility. These factors may have been the major causes of the mineralization of the Hongshi copper deposit. Based on all the geologic and fluid characteristics, we conclude that the Hongshi copper deposit is an epithermal deposit.
