Discovery of Early Tertiary Hydrothermal Activity and Its Significance in Oil／Gas Geology,Dougpu Depression,Henan Province,China

Data from the super-deep wells(PS10,PS14 and YS1)led to the discovery of widespread met-al-bearing hydrothermal fluids (or hot brines) related to basic magmas in the Lower Tertiary clastic sequence in the Dongpu Depression .In terms of SEM and EDAX analyses, pore-casting thin section examination of sandstone ,the composition and forming temperature of fluid inclusions ,the trace ele-ment composition of mustone and kerogen and organic geochemical analyses, it is demonstrated that the hydrothermal fluids existing in the area studied are ejecting fluids, which have a close bearing on diagenesis and sedimentation, rather than intrusive veins along the tectonic fractures.The main indicators of hydrothermal activity are:(1)abnormal alteration of kerogen;(2) high-temperature altered mineral assemblage;(30abnormal distribution of hydrocarbons;(4) specific assemblages and abnormal contents of heavy metals in mudstone and kerogen;(5) specific composi-tion of complex compounds and assemblages of fluid inclusions in sandstone;(6) periodic basaltic magma activity.Results of geological observations and laboratory simulating experiments demonstrated that the hydrothermal fluids have a close bearing on hydrocarbon generation in the Dongpu Depression. Two aspects of the effect of hydrothermal fluids are noticed:hydrothermal hydrocarbon production and strong metal catalysis in oil and gas generation.     

金厂峪金矿床地质特征及成因探讨

本文研究了金厂峪金矿太古代斜长角闪岩中构造岩的特征和分布特点;根据片岩带内存在纯片岩地段、片岩带内有岩墙和两种含金脉体地段所呈现的无对称分带性、岩墙和脉体的接触关系,论述了断裂构造性质、控矿作用、热液充填期次、成矿时代;指出产于斜长角闪岩中的金矿床,并非都形成于太古代,在冀东燕山准地槽内应注意燕山期成矿作用。

阿尔金北缘大平沟金矿床成因

大平沟金矿是阿尔金北缘地区近年来新发现的一个中型金矿床。它受韧性剪切带构造的控制,矿化类型为蚀变糜棱岩型夹少量钾长石石英脉型。文章通过地质地球化学的研究,探讨了该矿床的成因。稀土元素、硫同位素、铅同位素和锶同位素地球化学特征反映成矿物质主要来源于变质岩;流体包裹体和氢氧同位素反映成矿流体主要来源于变质水,有少量重熔岩浆水和大气降水的混入,成矿温度198～2 90℃,成矿流体密度0 .791～0 .971g/cm3 ;盐度w(NaCleq) =2 .0 3%～5 .5 % ,成矿压力(42 0～72 0 )×10 5Pa ,成矿深度为1.6 1～2 .6 8km。石英流体包裹体Rb_Sr等时线年龄表明成矿时代为加里东期。大平沟金矿床属于中温动力变质热液成因矿床。     

新疆富蕴县索尔库都克铜(钼)矿床地质特征及成因探讨

矿区内出露地层主要为中泥盆统北塔山组第二亚组,为一套海相、海陆交互相的中基性、中酸性火山岩—火山碎屑沉积岩建造。矿区构造较为复杂,为矿液的运移及铜、钼矿质的沉淀、富集提供了良好的空间条件。Sm-Nd等时线年龄测定显示矿床形成于早二叠世,蚀变岩的Rb-Sr全岩年龄测定结果也反映了成矿和该时期发生的热事件有关。索尔库都克铜(钼)矿床成因应该归属于次火山热液层控型铜(钼)矿床。     

Sr isotope diversity of hot spring and volcanic lake waters from Zao volcano,Japan

The ratio of ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr was measured from different water samples of thermal/mineral (hot spring as well as crater lake) and meteoric origins, in order to specify the location and to verify the detailed model of a volcano-hydrothermal system beneath Zao volcano. The ratio showed a trimodal distribution for the case of thermal/mineral water: 0.7052–0.7053 (Type A, Zao hot spring), 0.7039–0.7043 (Type B, Okama crater lake and Shin-funkiko hot spring), and 0.7070–0.7073 (Type C, Gaga, Aone, and Togatta hot springs), respectively. However, in comparison, the ratio was found to be higher for meteoric waters (0.7077–0.7079). The water from the central volcanic edifice (Type B) was found to be similar to that of nearby volcanic rocks in their Sr isotopic ratio. This indicates that the Sr in water was derived from shallow volcanic rocks. The ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr ratio for water from the Zao hot spring (Type A) was intermediate between those of the pre-Tertiary granitic and the Quaternary volcanic rocks, thus suggesting that the water had reacted with both volcanic and granitic rocks. The location of the vapor–liquid separation was determined as the boundary of the pre-Tertiary granitic and the Quaternary volcanic rocks by comparing the results of this strontium isotopic study with those of Kiyosu and Kurahashi [Kiyosu, Y., Kurahashi, M., 1984. Isotopic geochemistry of acid thermal waters and volcanic gases from Zao volcano in Japan. J. Volcanol. Geotherm. Res. 21, 313–331.].     

Continuous,Direct Gas-Geochemical Monitoring in Hydrothermal Vents: Installation and Long-Term Operation on Nisyros Island (Greece)

In this paper the installation and long-term operation of a system for continuous monitoring of fumarolic gases is described. Several physicochemical and gas-geochemical parameters such as the concentration of CO₂, H₂S and CO in the fumarolic emissions, as well as the temperatures of the hydrothermal steam and soil in close vicinity of the fumarole and steam pressure are measured in short-time intervals (typically 15 seconds). Data are logged on-site and in parallel transferred to a remote station by digital telemetry. Specially developed software enables the real-time observation of the local conditions in the crater and full bidirectional control of the monitoring system. Fluctuations in the monitored parameters are also reported. From the data presented it can be concluded that environmental conditions (direction and strength of wind, precipitation) will interact with some of the parameters monitored. These influences can only be revealed by continuously operated monitoring systems.     

四川杨柳坪热液型富铂族元素矿石的发现及其意义

四川杨柳坪是中国最主要的铂族元素矿床之一，但以往控制的97％以上的储量赋存在蚀变超基性岩体中，品位普遍不高，笔者等1999年通过对杨柳坪主矿体外围热液型矿体的调查，认为其中的热液型矿石可能富含铂族元素，经过初步的分析测试，证实了这一推测，并发现热液成民岩浆作用在杨柳坪地区具有明显不同的表现形式，根据最近在鱼海子等地地调查的新发现，建议在扬子地台西缘进一步开展找热液型铂族元素矿床的工作。
