Microscopic Analyses of Insoluble Particles in an Ice Core of ürümqi Glacier No. 1: Quantification of Mineral and Organic Particles

Insoluble particle concentration in ice cores is commonly analyzed as a proxy for varia-tions in atmospheric mineral dust (aerosol concentration). However, recent studies have revealed that the mineral dust is not only a constituent of the particles but that biogenic organic particles are also contained. We microscopically analyzed insoluble particles in a shallow ice core drilled on a mountain glacier, the ürümqi Glacier No. 1, in eastern Tienshan, China. We distinguished different morphologi-cal particles...

优势战略矿产资源矿产地储备的建模及按序推进的量化分析

目前,中国战略矿产资源矿产地储备工作刚刚起步,储备试点工作进程缓慢。本文从储备战略的角度出发,明确了优势战略矿产资源矿产地储备的概念;根据实现不同层次的战略目的,把优势战略矿产资源矿产地储备划分为三个等级——战略储备、优势储备和调控储备,并分别建立了相应的储备规模模型;针对中国矿产地储备试点工作推进过程中所遇到的困难和问题,提出了"储备顺序"的概念,并对影响矿产地储备的影响因子进行分析,明确了中国首批拟储备矿种(煤炭、稀土、钨和锑)的储备顺序。分级储备及按序推进可以明确工作流程,提高优势战略矿产资源矿产地储备工作效率。     

黑龙江多宝山斑岩铜矿赋矿岩体侵位深度及其对成矿的约束

多宝山铜矿是中国北方著名的斑岩型矿床,许多学者对该矿床的成因、大地构造环境、成矿机制等进行了大量的研究,并取得较好的成果。但对矿床保存和后期改造尚缺研究,需要中低温热年代学研究控制矿床的剥蚀深度、阶段和时代,而含矿岩体的侵位深度是先决条件。为了准确确定多宝山铜矿含矿岩体的侵位深度,笔者选取赋矿花岗闪长斑岩体作为研究对象,并利用角闪石-斜长石地质温压计进行成矿深度分析。通过研究得出赋矿花岗闪长斑岩体成岩压力为1.69×108~1.78×108 Pa,温度范围在650~710℃之间,成岩深度为6.36~6.69 km,对于研究矿床剥蚀深度及速率、演化阶段、构造背景等都具有重要的意义。     

Revised activity–composition models for clinopyroxene and amphibole

Recent activity–composition models for clinopyroxene and amphibole are revised to provide better consistency with observed phase relations in natural rocks. For clinopyroxene, the calibration in NCFMAS is retained, but the incorporation of acmite is revised to improve the partitioning of ferric iron between coexisting clinopyroxenes. For amphibole, the NCFMASH calibration is retained, but the addition of ferric iron is changed to provide consistency with the clinopyroxenes. The thermodynamics of orthoamphibole (gedrite) is also adjusted to resolve an unrelated inconsistency. The effects of these improvements are illustrated through comparison of calculated pseudosections produced with the existing and new models with natural data from lawsonite eclogites.     

Mineral Potential of Myanmar

Abstract: Myanmar is rich in mineral resources, and of potential importance are the deposits of antimony, chromium, nickel, PGM, copper, gold, lead, zinc, silver, tin and tungsten, which form district metallogenic provinces within the six geomor–phic–tectonic units. In terms of past production and potential mineral wealth Myanmar ranks high among Asian countries. The last few decades witnessed a dramatic fall in mineral production, but undoubtedly, the high level of mineral potential remains unrealized. This paper reveals mineral belts with a high level of economic potential which form attractive targets for mineral exploration and some individual mineral deposits of significant magnitude and grade, creating opportunities for development and mining investment.     

Applied geophysics for cover thickness mapping in the southern Thomson Orogen

Abstract

Potentially mineralised Paleozoic basement rocks in the southern Thomson Orogen region of southern Queensland and northern New South Wales are covered by varying thicknesses of Mesozoic to Cenozoic sediments. To assess cover thickness and methods for estimating depth to basement, we collected new airborne electromagnetic (AEM), seismic refraction, seismic reflection and audio-frequency magnetotelluric data and combined these with new depth to magnetic basement models from airborne magnetic line data and ground gravity data along selected transects. The results of these investigations over two borehole sites, GSQ Eulo 1 and GSQ Eulo 2, show that cover thickness can be reliably assessed to within the confidence limits of the various techniques, but that caveats exist regarding the application of each of the disciplines. These techniques are part of a rapid-deployment explorers’ toolbox of geophysical techniques that have been tested at two sites in Australia, the Stavely region of western Victoria, and now the southern Thomson Orogen in northern New South Wales and southern Queensland. The results shown here demonstrate that AEM and ground geophysics, and to a lesser extent depth to magnetic source modelling, can produce reliable results when applied to the common exploration problem of determining cover thickness. The results demonstrate that portable seismic systems, designed for geotechnical site investigations, are capable of imaging basement below 300 m of unlithified Eromanga Basin cover as refraction and reflection data. The results of all methods provide much information about the nature of the basement–cover interface and basement at borehole sites in the southern Thomson Orogen, in that the basement is usually weathered, the interface has paleotopography, and it can be recognised by its density, natural gamma, magnetic susceptibility and electrical conductivity contrasts.
