Crustal structure beneath the Songpan——Garze orogenic belt

AbstractThe Benzilan-Tangke deep seismic sounding profile in the western Sichuan region passes through the Song-pan-Garze orogenic belt with trend of NNE.Based on the travel times and the related amplitudes of phases in therecord sections,the 2-D P-wave crustal structure was ascertained in this paper. The velocity structure has quitestrong lateral variation along the profile.The crust is divided into 5 layers,where the first,second and third layerbelong to the upper crust,the forth and fifth layer belong to the lower crust.The low velocity anomaly zone gener-ally exists in the central part of the upper crust on the profile,and it integrates into the overlying low velocitybasement in the area to the north of Ma’erkang.The crustal structure in the section can be divided into 4 parts:inthe south of Garze-Litang fault,between Garze-Litang fault and Xiashuihe fault,between Xianshuihe fault andLongriba fault and in the north of Longriba fault,which are basically coincided with the regional tectonics division     

江苏东海芝麻房预先导孔（CCSD-PPl）橄榄岩及其反映的上地幔亏损和交代事件

芝麻房预先导孔橄榄岩岩石类型有二辉橄榄岩、方辉橄榄岩、单辉橄榄岩和纯橄榄岩，其中前3种多数含有石榴子石。这些岩石在垂向上显示成层性，没有某种方向的韵律变化，它们之间呈渐变过渡关系。对样品进行主量元素、微量元素、稀土元素和Sr、Nd、O同位素分析表明，随着样品MgO含量的增高，Al2O3、CaO逐渐降低，呈良好的相关关系，并且大致上从石榴橄榄岩类到不含石榴子石的橄榄岩类主量元素的亏损程度增高，两者一般均比原始地幔主量元素亏损。稀土元素配分型式表现为右倾的轻稀土富集型，在微量元素蛛网图上，也表现为强不相容元素和微量元素到适度不相容元素的总体右倾型，与原始地幔相比，均富集强不相容元素。富集程度的不同与主量元素的亏损无对应关系，说明主量元素和微量元素各自的特点不是同一种事件造成的，而是先前地幔部分熔融作用之后又发生了富含不相容元素流体的交代作用。Sr、Nd同位素具有富集特点，变化范围较大，而且主量元素较亏损的岩石更富集Sr同位素，显示了交代富集的特点。稀土元素(Ce／Yb)x比值和εNd之间的负相关关系和Rb丰度与Sr同位素之间的正相关关系表明，富集Sr、Nd同位素的流体和富集不相容微量元素的流体均来自地幔。     

地球深部碱性元素地球化学行为:来自陨石高压矿物的证据

近年来在球粒陨石冲击脉体中陆续发现了一些天然高压新矿物和矿物组合，这些发现为地球深部碱性元素的地球化学行为的研究提供了重要依据。在地幔过渡带温度和压力条件下，钠和钙离子优先结合到镁铁－镁铝榴石固溶体和长石高压多形之中，钾离子则选择性地进入到长石高压多形中，副矿物涂氏磷钙石是Na、Ba、Sr和轻稀土等元素的潜在载体相。天然冲击变质球粒陨石为我们提供了探索过渡带和下地幔温度、压力条件下碱性元素载体相特征的重要自然界样品。

Upper lithospheric seismic velocity structure across the Pripyat Trough and the Ukrainian Shield along the EUROBRIDGE'97 profile

We present new results on the structure resulting from Palaeoproterozoic terrane accretion and later formation of one of the aulacogens in the East European Platform. Seismic data has been acquired along the 530-km-long, N–S-striking EUROBRIDGE'97 traverse across Sarmatia, a major crustal segment of the East European Craton. The profile extends across the Ukrainian Shield from the Devonian Pripyat Trough, across the Palaeoproterozoic Volyn Block and the Korosten Pluton, into the Archaean Podolian Block. Seismic waves from chemical explosions at 18 shot points at approximately 30-km intervals were recorded in two deployments by 120 mobile three-component seismographs at 3–4 km nominal station spacing. The data has been interpreted by use of two-dimensional tomographic travel time inversion and ray trace modelling. The high data quality allows modelling of the P- and S-wave velocity structure along the profile. There are pronounced differences in seismic velocity structure of the crust and uppermost mantle between the three main tectonic provinces traversed by the profile: (i) the Pripyat Trough is a ca. 4-km-deep sedimentary basin, fully located in the Osnitsk–Mikashevichi Igneous Belt in the northern part of the profile. The velocity structure is typical for a Precambrian craton, but is underlain by a ca. 5-km-thick lowest crustal layer of high velocity. The development of the Pripyat Trough appears to have only affected the upper crust without noticeable thinning of the whole crust; this may be explained by a rheologically strong lithosphere at the time of formation of the trough. (ii) Very high seismic velocity and Vp/Vs ratio characterise the Volyn Block and Korosten Pluton to a depth of 15 km and probably also the lowest crust. The values are consistent with an intrusive body of mafic composition in the upper crust that formed from bimodal melts derived from the mantle and the lower crust. (iii) The Podolian Block is close to a typical cratonic velocity structure, although it is characterised by relatively low seismic velocity and Vp/Vs ratio. A pronounced SW-dipping mantle reflector from Moho to at least 70 km depth may represent the Proterozoic suture between Sarmatia and Volgo–Uralia, the structure from terrane accretion, or a later shear zone in the upper mantle. The sub-Moho P-wave seismic velocity is high everywhere along the profile, with the exception of the area above the dipping reflector. This velocity change further supports a plate tectonic origin of the dipping mantle reflector. The profile demonstrates that structure from Palaeoproterozoic plate tectonic processes are still identifiable in the lithosphere, even where younger metamorphic equilibration of the crust has taken place.     

Crust-Mantle Structure and Coupling Effects on Mineralization： An Example from J iaodong Gold Ore Deposits Concentrating Area, China

Based on the results of two-dimension velocity structure, 1 : 100 000 aeromagnetic anoma-ly, 1 : 200 000 bouguer gravity anomaly and seismic anisotropy of Jiaodong and neighboring region in Shandong, China, the information of geophysical field was divided into two parts: deep- and shallow-focus fields. And then, the information of two different fields was combined with that of deep-seated ge-ology and ore deposit features. The synthetic result was adopted to analyze three-dimension structure, to probe into crust-mantle coupling effects of mineralization and dynamics of ore formation system.     

The mineralogy of the Kokchetav ‘lamproite’: implications for the magma evolution

Kokchetav ‘lamproite’ occurs in the east end of Kokchetav massif and consists of phenocryst (mainly clinopyroxene) and matrix (mainly feldspar). The compositions of clinopyroxene, magnetite and biotite phenocryst were determined using wavelength dispersive spectrometry on a JEOL Super-probe 8900 electron microprobe for the purpose of revealing the process of magma evolution. Analyses revealed a core–rim variation, which is consistent with three stages of magmatic evolution: Mg-rich clinopyroxene cores (diopside) and biotite cores (phlogopite) crystallized in a deep magma chamber (stage I); Fe-rich clinopyroxene rim (salite) and biotite rim crystallized at low pressure in a shallow magma chamber (stage II); Magnetite phenocryst core also crystallized in a shallow magma chamber, and co-exists with Fe-rich clinopyroxene rim and biotite rim. The magnetite rims probably formed during magma eruption at the same time when groundmass crystallized (stage III). The calculated temperatures for ilmenite–magnetite pair range from 679 to 887°C, log fO₂ values range from −11.1 to −14.9 log units. These values represent the latest conditions of magma as ilmenite exsolution in magnetite probably occurred during magma eruption from the shallow chamber to surface.

Upper mantle low anisotropy channels below the Pacific Plate

A new 3D anisotropic model has been obtained at a global scale by using a massive dataset of seismic surface waves. Though seismic heterogeneities are usually interpreted in terms of heterogeneous temperature field, a large part of lateral variations are also induced by seismic anisotropy of upper mantle minerals. New insight into convection processes can be gained by taking seismic anisotropy into account in the inversion procedure. The model is best resolved in the Pacific Plate, the largest and the most active tectonic plate. Superimposed on the large-scale radial (ξ parameter) and azimuthal anisotropy (of V_SV velocity) within and below the lithosphere, correlated with present or past Pacific Plate motions, are smaller-scale (<1000 km) lateral variations of anisotropy not predicted by plate tectonics. Channels of low anisotropy down to a depth of 200 km (hereafter referred to as LAC) are observed and are the best resolved anomalies: one east-west channel between Easter Island and the Tonga-Kermadec subduction zones (observed on both radial and azimuthal anisotropies) and a second one (only observed on azimuthal anisotropy) extending from the south-west Pacific up to south-east Hawaii, and passing through the Polynesia hotspot group for plate older than about 40 Ma. These features provide strong constraints on the decoupling between the plate and asthenosphere. They are presumably related to cracking within the Pacific Plate and/or to secondary convection below the rigid lithosphere, predicted by numerical and analog experiments. The existence and location of these LACs might be related to the current active volcanoes and hotspots (possibly plumes) in the Central Pacific. LACs, which are dividing the Pacific Plate into smaller units, might indicate a future reorganization of plates with ridge migrations in the Pacific Ocean.
