The Carrancas Formation,Bambuí Group: A record of pre-Marinoan sedimentation on the southern São Francisco craton,Brazil

The Carrancas Formation outcrops in east-central Brazil on the southern margin of the São Francisco craton where it comprises the base of the late Neoproterozoic Bambuí Group. It is overlain by the basal Ediacaran cap carbonate Sete Lagoas Formation and was for a long time considered to be glacially influenced and correlative with the glaciogenic Jequitaí Formation. New stratigraphic, isotopic and geochronologic data imply that the Carrancas Formation was instead formed by the shedding of debris from basement highs uplifted during an episode of minor continental rifting. Reddish dolostones in the upper Carrancas Formation have δ¹³C values ranging from +7.1 to +9.6‰, which is a unique C isotopic composition for the lowermost Bambuí Group but similar to values found in the Tijucuçu sequence, a pre-glacial unit in the Araçuaí fold belt on the eastern margin of the São Francisco craton. The stratigraphic position below basal Ediacaran cap carbonates and the highly positive δ¹³C values together indicate a Cryogenian interglacial age for the Carrancas Formation, with the high δ¹³C values representing the so-called Keele peak, which precedes the pre-Marinoan Trezona negative δ¹³C excursion in other well characterized Cryogenian sequences. Hence, The Carrancas Formation pre-dates de Marinoan Jequitaí Formation and represents an interval of Cryogenian stratigraphy not previously known to occur on the southern margin of São Francicso craton. Documentation of Cryogenian interglacial strata on the São Francisco craton reinforces recent revisions to the age of Bambuí Group strata and has implications for the development of the Bambuí basin.     

西秦岭略阳地区鱼洞子杂岩变形花岗岩锆石LA-ICP-MS U-Pb测年及地质意义

鱼洞子杂岩是秦岭地区最古老的复杂的地质体。前人对鱼洞子杂岩不同的地质体采用多种方法进行了年龄测定,但结果差异较大,且总体测试精度不高。依据锆石CL影像的特征,结合锆石成因分析和锆石微区的U-Pb同位素,进行了LA-ICP-MS测定,在鱼洞子杂岩糜棱岩化细粒黑云母花岗岩和强片理化黑云母花岗岩中分别获得2661Ma±17Ma和2703Ma±26Ma的岩浆结晶年龄,同时在糜棱岩化细粒黑云母花岗岩中获得2647Ma±65Ma的变质锆石年龄。其中2703Ma±26Ma是秦岭造山带目前发现的最古老的侵入岩的形成年龄,为研究秦岭造山带早前寒武纪构造岩浆事件和地球早期的形成演化提供了新的资料。     

北秦岭二郎坪群低压变质作用研究

在对二郎坪群低压变质带进行相图分析后发现，二郎坪群低压变质带是叠加变质带，低压变质作用是在早期中压变质的抬升过程中发生的，中压变质的温压条件为0．5-0．6GPa、560～580℃，低压变质的压力为0．3-0．45GPa，红柱石-十字石带的温度为510～580℃，堇青石带为590-620℃。pT视剖面图在区分岩石中不同条件和期次的矿物组合及分析岩石温压演化历史和温压条件时显得更行之有效。

泰国北部三叠系Lampang群Doi Long组的有孔虫组合与沉积环境

A rich foraminiferal assemblage, consisting of abundant Aulotortus sinuosus and A. tumidus in association with Lamelliconus multispirus, Endoteba ex gr. controversa, E. ex gr. badouxi, Endotebanella kocaeliensis, Endotriada tyrrhenica, Endotriadella wirzi, Malayspirina fontainei, Ammobaculites rhaeticus, Diplotremina astrofimbriata, Agathammina austroalpina, and others, was found in the Doi Long Formation of the Triassic Lampang Group, Northern Thailand. These foraminifers suggest that the formation is referable to the Carnian (early Late Triassic), which is consistent with the age estimated by ammonoids. In microfacies, peloidal grainstone, bioclastic grainstone, sponge-microbial boundstone, and oolitic grainstone were recognized in the Doi Long Formation. Based on microfacies, three depositional facies, the lagoon facies, reef facies, and shoal facies, are recognized in this formation. These lines of evidence are suggestive that the Doi Long Formation was deposited in a reef or bank setting rather than a ramp setting.     

浙江陈蔡群斜长角闪岩的地球化学特征及其大地构造背景探讨

陈蔡群斜长角闪岩的基本组成矿物是斜长石和角闪石,不同样品中还可出现透辉石、黑云母、石英和碱性长石等。大多数斜长角闪岩显示石英拉斑和橄榄拉斑系列的特征,个别属于钙碱性系列。其稀土元素配分曲线显示不同程度的LREE富集特征,指示斜长角闪岩原岩在成岩过程方面的多样性。根据微量元素蛛网图的斜率和Nb、Ta异常情况以及Zr-TiO₂相关性,斜长角闪岩主要分成岛弧和洋岛两种类型,指示陈蔡群的原岩形成于洋内俯冲或洋陆俯冲的环境。龙游八都群斜长角闪岩呈MORB的地球化学特征,与陈蔡群斜长角闪岩形成鲜明的对比     

海拉尔盆地查干诺尔凹陷扎赉诺尔群孢粉组合

内蒙古自治区呼伦贝尔盟地区海拉尔盆地查干诺尔凹陷扎赉诺尔群自下而上划分为4个孢粉组合。云杉粉Piceaepollenites sp.-单束松粉Abietineaepollenites sp.-三角粒面孢Granulatisporites sp.组合,分布于大磨拐河组一段;罗汉松粉Podocarpidites sp.-双束松粉Pinuspollenites sp.-无突肋纹孢Cicatricosisporites sp.组合,分布于大磨拐河组二段;无突肋纹孢Cicatricosisporites sp.-刺毛孢Pilosisporite sp.-水龙骨单缝孢Polypodiaceaesporites sp.组合,分布于伊敏组一段;有突肋纹孢Appendicisporites sp.-桫椤孢Cyathidites sp.-星粉Astropollis sp.组合,分布于伊敏组二、三段。上述孢粉组合研究证明,大磨拐河组地质时代为早白垩世凡兰吟期—欧特里夫期(Valanginian-Hauterivian),尽管没有出现最原始的被子植物花粉,但也不排除部分进入巴列姆期(Barremian)的可能,伊敏组的地质时代为早白垩世巴列姆期-阿普第期(Barremian-Aptian)。据此认为扎赉诺尔群地质时代为早白垩世凡兰吟期—阿普第期(Valanginian-Aptian)。     

贺兰山群变质杂岩主期变质作用的温压环境研究

分布于贺兰山脉北部的贺兰山群变质杂岩的主期变质作用达角闪麻粒岩相,其矿物组合特征与低压相系麻粒岩相似、利用共生矿物组合和矿物对的温度计、压力计估算主期变质温度740—764(?),压力460—501MPa。温度压力条件与低压相系的地热梯度线较接近,变质作用强度具面型分布的特征,与东部密云、冀东等地的麻粒岩相区相似,但变质压力明显低,压力类型也不同,应属不同构造背景下的变质产物。     

河南西峡地区二郎坪群火神庙组中发现泥盆纪孢子化石

在河南省西峡地区二郎坪群火神庙组粉砂质板岩中发现丰富的陆生植物孢子(Spores)、少数疑源类(Acritarchs)和极少数几丁虫(Chitinozoa)化石.该化石孢子组合可与中国华南、西南地区和西秦岭中泥盆世早期孢子组合比较,亦可与西欧和北美中泥盆世早期的孢子带比较,时代为中泥盆世,并有可能为中泥盆世早期,相当于西欧艾菲尔期(Eifelian).     

贺兰山群变质岩的地球化学特征

贺兰山变质岩是一套晚太古宙的孔兹岩系，与典型的太古代沉积岩相比，这套变质岩的ＳｉＯ２、Ｋ２Ｏ、Ｐ２Ｏ５、Ｒｂ、Ｚｒ、Ｈｆ、Ｎｂ，尤其是Ｋ、Ｒｂ偏高；而ＭｇＯ、ＦｅＯ、Ｎｉ、Ｃｒ、Ｃｕ、Ｃｏ、Ｖ、Ｓｃ、Ｎａ、Ｔｉ、Ｓｒ等偏低。在稀土元素方面，有ΣＲＥＥ高，轻、重稀土分异强，Ｅｕ负异常的显著特征。这些特征表明，华化地台西部在晚太古宙就已存在丰富的花岗质源区，比东部有更高的演化，可能是地台基底的陆核。
