冈底斯东段泽当大型钨铜钼矿新发现及走滑型陆缘成矿新认识

冈底斯成矿带以斑岩型铜矿(伴生钼矿)为主体,通常作为"挤压型"陆缘岩浆弧—"碰撞裂谷带"斑岩成矿的典型代表而被广泛关注,但层矽卡岩型钨铜钼矿和斑岩型独立钼矿的勘查和研究却未能引起足够的重视,尤其是层矽卡岩型白钨矿的发现,填补了区带矿种的空白;在雅鲁藏布江缝合带边部发现的隐伏斑岩型钼矿,突破了"挤压型"陆缘成矿认识的传统误区。中国冶金地质总局新近发现的冈底斯东段则当钨铜钼矿,既是一处大型钨铜钼矿详查开发基地,又是一组统一于陆缘走滑断裂构造成矿体制作用的钨、铜、钼矿床组合,称为"泽当矿田"。在NWW向雅鲁藏布江缝合带陆缘走滑断裂作用下,早期(68～40.3Ma)拉分型转换构造——NEE向剥离断层,控制了层矽卡岩型钨铜钼矿的形成;在NEE向冲木达陆缘走滑断裂作用下,晚期(30.26～23.62Ma)推闭型转换构造——NWW向逆冲断层,控制了隐伏斑岩型钼矿的形成。层矽卡岩型矿床形成和改造于68～66Ma和57～40.3Ma,叠加富集于斑岩型矿床的形成阶段——30.26～23.62Ma。     

辽东湾JZ27-33区块伸展型右行走滑双重构造系统

辽东湾JZ27-33区块发育3条大型NNE向走滑断裂,分别为辽中3号断裂(或者辽中1号断裂)、辽中2号断裂和辽东2号断裂,在平面上,3条走滑断裂呈"雁行式"展布,其间密集发育具有走滑性质的正断层,这些正断层在平面上成NE或者NEE走向,与主走滑断裂斜交,其锐角的指向为本盘地层在平面上的位移方向;在横剖面上,负花状构造是研究区内的大型走滑断裂在横剖面上的重要特征,综合分析认为,研究区的断裂特征在平面上表现为"双重构造"特征,在横剖面上表现为(负)花状构造,构成了典型的"伸展型右旋走滑双重构造"系统,并且认为,形成这种构造样式的控制因素主要有:郯庐断裂带的右旋走滑作用、平面展布特征、多期构造活动以及能干性特征明显的沉积地层。     

斑岩Cu-(Mo-Au)矿床的成矿构造环境及勘查意义

斑岩矿床是重要的矿床勘查目标。斑岩矿床的成矿构造环境研究有助于确定斑岩矿床的战略勘查方向。斑岩矿床形成的成矿构造环境包括板块汇聚边缘、大陆转换板块边界、陆内造山环境和非造山环境。本文重点对斑岩矿床在汇聚边缘和大陆转换板块边界的成矿构造环境及其勘查意义进行初步总结。构造变化对斑岩矿床的形成起到触发作用。微弱和中等程度的转换挤压应力最有利于岩浆的集聚、上升和就位。岩浆侵入可以是在广阔的转换挤压断层带内或在其周围局部呈引张的地区集中出现。对于斑岩矿床战略勘查方向而言,应注意研究区域走滑断层与侵入体的关系,加强对地表浅部喷气蚀变的识别。在我国西南地区已勘查发现的5个斑岩成矿带中,应注意沿区域走滑断裂构造方向开展找矿。从成矿构造环境与哀牢山-红河构造带对比来看,鲜水河-小江断裂带可能是西南地区新的斑岩矿床勘查区。     

Taimyr Peninsula( Arctic Siberia) in Late Precambrian:tectonic thrust sheets and geodynamic evolution

Structural relationships between the Neoproterozoic rock complexes of a continental massif,island arc and back-arc basin geodynamic affinities are described and considered in this work based on field observations within the northeastern segment of the Central Taimyr tectonic zone distinguished in the late Hercynian foldthrust belt of Taimyr Peninsula. As is established for the first time,rock complexes of the continental massif with the early Late Riphean( Tonian-Cryogenian) volcanogenic-sedimentary cover occur in the study region as the allochthonous syn- and post-sedimentary thrust sheets buried in or thrust over deposits of a back-arc basin,which accumulated in the terminal Late Riphean( Cryogenian)--initial Vendian( Ediacaran). These and other results of the large-scale structural observations elucidate important details of the region tectonic development in the Late Precambrian,when two lateral ensembles of the Neoproterozoic structures originated in the region. In the first half of the Neoproterozoic,the regional tectonic ensemble included the oceanic plate abut on the continental massif with a primitive volcano-plutonic belt. The subsequent system of an island arc and marginal backarc basin originated in the second half of the Neoproterozoic and existed approximately till the mid-Vendian( Ediacaran) phase of the intense formation of thrust sheets in the region.     

Structural analysis of the Lombard thrust sheet and adjacent areas in the Helena salient,southwest Montana,USA

The Helena salient is a prominent craton–convex curve in the Cordillera thrust belt of Montana, USA. The Lombard thrust sheet is the primary sheet in the salient. Structural analysis of fold trends, cleavage attitudes, and movement on minor faults is used to better understand both the geometry of the Lombard thrust and the kinematic development of the salient.Early W–E to WNW–ENE shortening directions in the Lombard sheet are indicated by fold trends in the center of the thrust sheet. The same narrow range of shortening directions is inferred from kinematic analysis of movement on minor faults and the orientations of unrotated cleavage planes along the southern lateral ramp boundary of the salient. As the salient developed, the amount and direction of shortening were locally modified as listric detachment faults rotated some tight folds to the NW, and as right-lateral simple shear, caused by lock-up and folding of the Jefferson Canyon fault above the lateral ramp, rotated other folds northeastward. Where the lateral ramp and frontal-oblique ramp intersect, folds were rotated back to the NW. Our interpretation of dominant W–E to WNW–ESE shortening in the Lombard sheet, later altered by local rotations, supports a model of salient formation by primary parallel transport modified by interactions with a lateral ramp.     

羌塘盆地结构构造与油气勘探方向

羌塘盆地是我国陆域大型中生代海相沉积盆地,富含烃源岩,但结构构造非常复杂。结合野外观测及相关资料对地震反射剖面进行地质构造详细解释,良好地揭示了羌塘盆地结构和深部构造。羌塘盆地逆冲推覆构造延伸存在显著差别,北羌塘凹陷多格错仁逆冲推覆构造、阿木错逆冲推覆构造与南羌塘凹陷肖茶卡—双湖逆冲推覆构造、多玛—其香错逆冲推覆构造仅发育于盆地表层0~3km深度范围,北羌塘凹陷龙尾错逆冲推覆构造、羌中隆起北缘逆冲推覆构造、南羌塘凹陷赛布错—扎加藏布逆冲推覆构造、拉萨地块北缘色林错逆冲推覆构造系统自地表向深部延伸深度超过6km,羌塘盆地深部还发育中生界底部逆冲系和基底逆冲系,伴有不同规模的褶皱构造。逆冲推覆构造形成活动时代包括晚白垩世、古近纪早期和古近纪晚期,晚白垩世与古近纪早期逆冲推覆构造运动导致构造隆升的裂变径迹年龄分别为87±5~75±4Ma、64±5~46±4Ma。经过多期逆冲推覆构造改造和褶皱变形,羌塘盆地中生界海相沉积地层与烃源岩显著增厚,为新生代晚期二次生烃及油气成藏提供了非常有利的地质构造条件;北羌塘凹陷发育万安湖向斜、半岛湖背斜、东湖向斜、阿木错向斜,南羌塘凹陷发育宁日圈闭、鲁雄错背斜、诺尔玛错圈闭、协德圈闭、崩则错圈闭,羌中隆起下伏侏罗系和三叠系烃源岩,色林错下白垩统下伏古近纪湖相沉积,这些构造部位都是油气勘探的重要靶区。     

不同变形速率下前陆褶皱冲断带的发育特征——基于砂箱物理模拟实验研究

构造模拟实验是研究和模拟自然界地质构造现象、变形特征、成因机制和动力学过程的一种物理实验方法。本文基于砂箱构造物理模型高、中、低速7组不同单向挤压速度的构造模拟实验,揭示不同变形速率下砂箱物质变形的几何学、运动学及其演化特征,探讨不同变形速度(尤其是不同量级速度)对前陆褶皱冲断构造变形的重要性。高速单向挤压变形过程中(0.4~0.1mm/s),砂箱模型中石英砂体后缘构造加积强烈,砂体变形主要以楔形体向前扩展变形为主,其构造样式主要表现为前展式叠瓦冲断构造。中速挤压变形过程中(0.05~0.005mm/s),砂体后缘加积相对较弱,构造变形样式主要为砂箱楔形体前缘先形成(前展式为主)逆冲断层,当达到临界楔形体后,反冲断层发育并与前展式逆冲断层构成冲起构造,构造样式上表现为叠瓦构造与冲起构造的无序叠加。低速挤压变形过程中(0.002mm/s),砂箱物质构造样式以典型冲起带为主。由于砂箱模拟过程的时效性,即如何在最有效时间内获得最全面而复杂的演变过程,通过本次系列实验,我们建议将此有效挤压速度设定为0.05~0.005mm/s范围内,可以先后清晰而全面的获得高速和低速挤压下砂体的变形过程和构造样式。     

龙门山冲断带分段机理研究

前陆冲断带具有巨大的油气勘探潜力,构造分段性控制油气分布。龙门山冲断带构造分段特征明显,但对分段性的形成机理缺乏深入研究。总结前人砂箱模拟实验成果认为:盆地基底差异和推覆带附近刚性体分布的差异,是造成冲断带构造分段的主要原因。龙门山前川西古拗拉谷的发现,为盆地基底存在差异提供了有利证据,古拗拉谷两侧发育大邑古隆起、江油——老关庙古隆起,在后期逆冲推覆过程中形成阻挡。通过对龙门山推覆带基底特征和刚性地体进行分析,结合前人模拟实验结果,明确提出龙门山冲断带构造分段机理:龙门山北段构造的形成是以碧口地块为动力,龙门山初始裂谷边缘古隆起形成阻挡,在古隆起上方形成冲断带;中段以彭灌杂岩体[彭县——灌县(都江堰)杂岩体]传递动力,在川西古拗拉谷坳陷部位,刚性体挤入盆地内部,印支期——喜马拉雅期,古坳陷部位继承性地发展为川西前陆盆地;南段以宝兴杂岩体传递动力,在大邑古隆起上方形成冲断带。     

秦岭-大别-苏鲁印支造山带连接枢纽的形成时代——来自宁陕断裂带同构造花岗岩锆石U-Pb年代学的限定

最新的研究表明,南秦岭勉略缝合带可以经宁陕左行走滑断裂带与大别苏鲁的高压/超高压变质带相连。对于这个模型,两带间的"连接枢纽"—宁陕走滑断层的活动时间是关键问题之一。研究显示宁陕断裂带是南秦岭中的一条走向近E-W的走滑剪切带,早期为左行韧性剪切变形,晚期叠加了左行脆性剪切变形。对带内千糜岩化石英片岩中的两期同构造花岗岩脉的构造地质学、岩石学和锆石U-Pb和Lu-Hf同位素研究,获得早期面理化细粒花岗岩的年龄为214.4±1.1Ma(MSWD=1.3),εHf(t)主要集中在-8.58~-0.29之间,tDM2=2.45~1.62Ga;晚期钾长花岗岩脉的年龄212.8±1.6Ma(MSWD=2.1),εHf(t)=-5.79~2.07,tDM2=2.53~1.49Ga。同位素数据表明两期花岗岩脉具有相同的岩浆源区,是古老地壳物质的再循环;晚期钾长花岗岩脉是早期花岗岩演化的产物。两期同构造花岗岩脉年龄的确定,表明宁陕左行走滑断层至少从晚三叠世中期之前就已经开始活动,而不是前人认为的早-中侏罗世或晚三叠末。尤其是宁陕左行走滑断裂带与勉略缝合带具有相同的左行韧性走滑叠加晚期脆性走滑的构造样式和活动时间,表明二者的形成可能都与古特提斯洋的斜向俯冲或者扬子板块的顺时针旋转有关。本研究成果为南秦岭的"古特提斯洋缝合带"——勉略缝合带向东经宁陕断裂带与大陆俯冲和深俯冲形成的耀岭河-桐柏-大别-苏鲁高压/超高压变质带相接提供了关键的年代学证据。     

Tectonic control of accommodation space and sediment supply within the Mata Amarilla Formation (lower Upper Cretaceous) Patagonia,Argentina

The Mata Amarilla Formation dates from the early Upper Cretaceous and was deposited during a transition in tectonic regime from the extensional Rocas Verdes Basin to the Austral Foreland Basin. Detailed sedimentological logs and architectural parameters were used to define 13 facies associations. The distribution of facies associations and associated variations in fluvial architecture have enabled large‐scale changes in accommodation space/sediment supply ratios (A/S ratio) to be defined for the three component sections of the Mata Amarilla Formation. The lower and upper sections are characterized by a high A/S ratio, whereas the middle section corresponds to a low A/S ratio. In the western part of the study area, small‐scale variations in the A/S ratio were recognized in the middle section. The strong west to east trend in evolution of the fluvial systems coincides with the direction of propagation of the Patagonian fold and thrust belt, which is located to the west of the study area. Intervals of high A/S ratio (i.e. lower and upper sections) are interpreted to have developed during periods of increased loading by the fold and thrust belt caused by tectonic uplift. In contrast, intervals of low A/S ratio (i.e. middle section) were developed during periods of tectonic quiescence. This article suggests that the large‐scale variations in A/S ratios are related to different rates of migration and growth of the Patagonian fold and thrust belt, whereas the small‐scale variation occurred in response to specific periods of thrusting and folding in the Patagonian fold and thrust belt (i.e. local loads). This field example of the effects of different scales of variation in A/S ratios across the Austral Foreland Basin could be used to recognize similar tectonically forced variations in stratigraphic architecture in other foreland basins throughout the world, as well as to understand the response of fluvial systems to such changes.
