海底热液循环中矿物沉淀过程数值模拟

为了探索高渗透性洋壳中高温热液循环系统的形成机制,以数值模拟为手段研究热液循环中的矿物沉淀过程及其对洋壳渗透率的反馈.在热液对流-矿物反应模型中考虑了硬石膏、黄铁矿和黄铜矿的沉淀和溶解反应,基于矿物的溶度积计算矿物的沉淀/溶解量,并将其转换为渗透率的变化.结果显示,黄铁矿和黄铜矿分布于350～380°C等温线范围内,并...     

卡罗琳M4平顶海山区地貌特征与地质过程研究

卡罗琳M4平顶海山位于卡罗琳海脊与马里亚纳海沟交界处,对其地貌与地质过程的研究有利于深入理解地球动力及环境背景与该地区海山演化的关系。基于“科学”号实测的全覆盖多波束水深数据与“发现”号遥控无人潜水器(remote operated vehicle, ROV)多次下潜获取的近海底影像资料,描述了卡罗琳M4平顶海山及附近区域的地形地貌特征,并对影响海山演化的主要地质过程进行了分析。线性喷发中心等火山地貌指示了研究区内沿线性喷口的裂隙式喷发活动。“C”字型的弯曲形态与陡崖说明山顶平台边缘经历过多次崩塌与破坏,滑坡痕与沉积块体/碎屑组成了块体搬运体系,并在中下段斜坡转变为浊流形成冲沟与水道。M4海山顶部还发育有较为完整的残留环礁地貌,其被淹没的机制可能是由于上升流输入的丰富营养物质影响了底栖环境的光照,从而抑制了珊瑚生长。

Pore Structure Characterization of Clay Minerals in the Lower Karamay Formation Conglomerate Reservoir in the Junggar Basin and its Impact on Hydrocarbon Storage and Seepage

The micro-nano pore structure of conglomerate in the Lower Karamay Formation of the Xinjiang Oilfield,Junggar Basin, northern China is characterized to predict its impact on fluid reserves and seepage. Authigenic clay minerals are mainly kaolinite(67%), followed by an illite/smectite mixed layer(18%), illite(10%), and chlorite(5%). For kaolinite,pore throats between 0–200 nm are dominant, accounting for 90% of the total pore throats. For illite/smectite mixed layer,pore throats also between 0–200 nm account for nearly 80%, while pore throats between 200-500 nm only account for 15%.For illite, pore throats below 100 nm account for about 80%, while pore throats in the range of 100–500 nm only account for 20%. For chlorite, most throats are below 200 nm. The pore roundness of illite is the highest, while the pore roundness of chlorite is relatively lower. The lower limits of the dynamic and static pore throat radii are 42.128 nm and 72.42 nm,respectively. The theoretical contribution rates of the illite/smectite mixed layer, kaolinite, illite and chlorite to storage/seepage are 60%/45.86%, 52.72%/38.18%, 37.07%/28.78% and 32.97%/26.3%, respectively. Therefore, the contribution rates of clay minerals in the study area are as follows: illite/smectite mixed layer, kaolinite, illite and chlorite.
