Molecular analysis of the commercial deep-sea crabs Chaceon ramosae and Chaceon notialis (Brachyura,Geryonidae) reveals possible cryptic species in the South Atlantic

Deep-sea red crabs Chaceon ramosae and Chaceon notialis are commercially and ecologically important crustaceans in South Atlantic waters. With some overlapping occurring at the edge of the crabs’ distribution, the fisheries are managed separately in Brazil and Uruguay, with some differences in the regulations, although the stock is supposedly shared between the two countries. To assess genetic information on these two species, we examined the nucleotide sequence of the mitochondrial 16S rDNA and CO1 mtDNA genes in samples from the southern region. We also compared these data to sequences from other congeners. The genetic analysis revealed a clear separation between C. notialis and C. ramosae. In addition, we detected the existence of at least two different groups within the species that is currently recognized as C. notialis. This might indicate the existence of cryptic species, leading us to speculate about the presence of two different taxonomic entities, although further research is needed to resolve this issue.     

Variation of the 0+ ion density during low and high solar activity as measured by the SR0SS-C2 satellite

The O⁺ ion density measured by the SROSS-C2 satellite during solar minima (year 1995, F_10.7 = 77) and maxima (year 2000, F_10.7 = 181) has been analyzed for studying diurnal, seasonal, latitudinal and geomagnetic variations. The study region covers an area encompassed between 5-3 5° N latitude and 65-95° E longitude over India at a ~500 km altitude (F2 region). The year 2000 shows significant enhancement in the annual average of O⁺ ion density and attainment of post sunset secondary enhancement compared to 1995. Attributed to photoionization, daytime shows a maximum ionization compared to nighttime. However, attainment of post sunset secondary maxima is attributed to the strong pre-reversal enhancement in the vertical E x B drift. The effect of geomagnetic activity Kp through the E x B drift dynamic movement on O⁺ ion density distribution studies indicates periodicities of seven and nine days in 1995 and 2000, respectively, and polynomial dependency of the O⁺ ion density on geomagnetic activity Kp. Further on, stratification of the O⁺ ion density according to latitude (5-35° N) indicates high density in mid-latitudes (12-24° N) compared to high and low latitudes, except in the winter of 1995, which shows a distinct trend (i.e., density decreases with increasing latitude).     

湘南香花岭锡铅锌多金属矿田的云母类型及对成矿的指示

湘南癞子岭花岗质复式岩体是香花岭锡铅锌多金属矿田的主要成矿岩体,其中云母广泛出现在各期次岩（矿）体之中。笔者等在对癞子岭岩体岩相学研究的基础上,开展全岩主微量元素地球化学分析,同时对岩浆成因云母（花岗岩中的云母）、热液成因云母（矿化云英岩、晶洞矿物集合体以及条纹岩中的云母）进行了电子探针分析。结果表明,癞子岭岩体为一套高钾钙碱性—钾玄质、准铝质—过铝质花岗岩,癞子岭岩体中的云母主要为铁锂云母,从早期到晚期,呈现出FeO和Al2O3含量降低,K2O、F、MnO和Rb2O含量升高,且Pb、Zn、Fe等成矿元素含量逐渐增加的特征。热液成因云母分为以下两种： ① 产于矿化云英岩和晶洞矿物集合体中的云母主要形成于流体出溶的早期,无围岩组分参与,云母类型由铁锂云母演化为锂云母,主要沉淀Fe、Zn、Pb、Mo等成矿元素;② 产于条纹岩中的云母晚于矿化云英岩和晶洞矿物集合体中的云母,有围岩组分参与,云母类型由黑鳞云母变为富镁黑云母和富铁黑云母再变为金云母,主要沉淀Fe、Sn和W等成矿元素。随着流体演化,云母呈现SiO2、F、K2O含量逐渐降低,MgO含量逐渐升高,相应的成矿元素从富Fe 、Zn、Pb、Mo逐渐过渡到富Fe 、Sn和W。

潼峪金矿区成矿断裂构造特征

潼峪金矿区发育过冲剪滑型、平移剪张型和平移剪滑型三种不同性质、不同方向成矿断裂,分布在金罗斑背形的不同部位,其形成有先后差异,但变形环境大体相同,具脆-韧性变形特征。空间上一般不超越褶皱主体。三类断裂中,前两者具石英脉型金矿化,后者形成构造蚀变岩型及小规模石英脉型金矿化。矿化差异与断裂产出的褶皱部位及其相应的应力应变条件的不同有关。
