黑龙江省东宁县金厂金矿石英和闪锌矿激光40Ar-39Ar法年龄及其找矿意义

黑龙江省东宁县金厂金矿是滨太平洋成矿域浅成低温-斑岩成矿系统中极具代表性的特大型金矿床。矿区已发现爆破角砾岩筒型、环状一放射状裂隙充填型、似层状微细脉浸染型和断控构造破碎带蚀变岩型等矿化类型。为确定成矿时间,作者应用高精度单颗粒激光熔蚀氩氩法,选择Ⅻ号破碎带蚀变岩型矿体中多金属硫化物一石英脉中石英和J-9号爆破角砾岩筒型矿体中闪锌矿进行年龄测定。获得Ⅻ号矿体石英40Ar/39Ar等时线年龄为119±5Ma（MSWD：6．3）,J-9号矿体闪锌矿40Ar/39Ar等时线年龄为129±0．8Ma（MSWD=3．7）,限定了成矿作用的上限。结合最新获得的相关成矿地质体精细年代学成果,进一步认定金厂金矿成矿时代为燕山晚期,成矿与同时代闪长玢岩一花岗闪长斑岩关系密切。金厂金矿成岩、成矿环境具备寻找富金斑岩型铜矿的有利条件,与成矿关系密切侵入岩呈岩脉、岩枝状,指示矿区剥蚀程度浅,深部还有发现斑岩型Au（cu）矿化的可能。     

新疆皮山镁质矽卡岩矿床(含糖玉)成因及锆石SHRIMP U-Pb定年

新疆且末—若羌一带的和田玉,以带有黄绿色调为特征,针对该种和田玉的颜色成因和特性表征研究较少,影响了对这种和田玉的颜色和矿床成因的认识。本文利用电子探针(EPMA)、背散射电子图像(BSE)、X射线荧光光谱(XRF)、高分辨电感耦合等离子体质谱(HR-ICP-MS)分析技术对且末黄口料的矿物组成和化学成分进行测试,采用滴定法测试FeO含量,探究其颜色成因和成矿类型,并采用锆石SHRIMP U-Pb同位素定年约束其成矿时代。结果表明：该地区和田玉主要由磷灰石、方解石、白云石、透辉石、绿帘石、榍石和锆石组成。其稀土总量低(∑REE=2.61~19.1μg/g),稀土配分模式呈现出明显Eu负异常(δ Eu < 0.05)、LREE右倾、HREE平坦,根据稀土配分模式和Cr、Ni元素含量,推测是一种镁质矽卡岩型和田玉。且末黄口料和田玉Fe³⁺/Fe²⁺平均值(0.16)与其他地区和田玉有重叠,但该比值稍高(0.07~0.26),而Fe³⁺、Fe²⁺含量与其他地区和田玉之间差异并不明显。因此,推测且末—若羌和田玉的颜色成因与Fe³⁺/Fe²⁺比值有关,与Fe³⁺、Fe²⁺含量并无明显关系; 该地区和田玉中锆石SHRIMP U-Pb同位素定年获得的两个加权平均年龄为461.7±6.1Ma (MSWD=1.6)和498.1±4.6Ma (MSWD=1.16),代表了该地区黄绿色和田玉的形成时代,并可以进一步约束西昆仑的构造演化。

     

Location and quantitative analysis of OH in coesite

 The incorporation of hydrogen (deuterium) into the coesite structure was investigated at pressures from 3.1 to 7.5 GPa and temperatures of 700, 800, and 1100 °C. Hydrogen could only be incorporated into the coesite structure at pressures greater 5.0 GPa and 1100 °C . No correlation between the concentration of trace elements such as Al and B and the hydrogen content was observed based on ion probe analysis (1335 ± 16 H ppm and 17 ± 1 Al ppm at 7.5 GPa, 1100 °C). The FTIR spectra show three relatively intense bands at 3575, 3516, and 3459 cm⁻¹ (ν₁ to ν₃, respectively) and two very weak bands at 3296 and 3210 cm⁻¹ (ν₄ and ν₅, respectively). The band at 3516 cm⁻¹ is strongly asymmetric and can be resolved into two bands, 3528 (ν_2a) and 3508 (ν_2b) cm⁻¹, with nearly identical areas. Polarized infrared absorption spectra of coesite single-crystal slabs, cut parallel to (0 1 0) and (1 0 0), were collected to locate the OH dipoles in the structure and to calibrate the IR spectroscopy for quantitative analysis of OH in coesite (ɛ _{i ,tot}=190 000 ± 30 000 l mol⁻¹ _H2O cm⁻²). The polarized spectra revealed a strong pleochroism of the OH bands. High-pressure FTIR spectra at pressures up to 8 GPa were performed in a diamond-anvil cell to gain further insight into incorporation mechanism of OH in coesite. The peak positions of the ν₁, ν₂, and ν₃ bands decrease linearly with pressure. The mode Grüneisen parameters for ν₁, ν₂, and ν₃ are −0.074, −0.144 and −0.398, respectively. There is a linear increase of the pressure derivatives with band position which follows the trend proposed by Hofmeister et al. (1999). The full widths at half maximum (FWHM) of the ν₁, ν₂, and ν₃ bands increase from 35, 21, and 28 cm⁻¹ in the spectra at ambient conditions to 71, 68, and 105 in the 8 GPa spectra, respectively. On the basis of these results, a model for the incorporation of hydrogen in coesite was developed: the OH defects are introduced into the structure by the substitution Si^4+(Si2)+4O²⁻= ^[4]□^(Si2) + 4OH⁻, which gives rise to four vibrations, ν₁, ν_2a, ν_2b, and ν₃. Because the OH(D)-bearing samples do contain traces of Al and B, the bands ν₄ and ν₅ may be coupled to Al and/or B substitution. Received: 19 December 2000 / Accepted: 23 April 2001

Application of rRNA probes and fluorescence in situ hybridization for rapid detection of the toxic dinoflagellate Alexandrium minutum

The dinoflagellate Alexandrium minutum is often associated with harmful algal blooms (HABs). This species consists of many strains that differ in their ability to produce toxins but have similar morphology, making identification difficult. In this study, species-specific rRNA probes were designed for whole-cell fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) to distinguish A. minutum from two phylogenetic clades. We acquired the complete SSU to LSU rDNA sequences (GenBank accession numbers JF906989-JF906999) of 11 Alexandrium strains and used these to design rRNA targeted oligonucleotide probes. Three ribotype-specific probes, M-GC-1, M-PC-2, and M-PC-3, were designed. The former is specific for the GC clade ("Global clade") of A. minutum, the majority of which have been found non-toxic, and the latter two are specific for the PSP (paralytic shellfish poisoning)-producing PC clade ("Pacific clade"). The specificity of these three probes was confirmed by FISH. All cells in observed fields of view were fluorescently labeled when probes and target species were incubated under optimized FISH conditions. However, the accessibility of rRNA molecules in ribosomes varied among the probe binding positions. Thus, there was variation in the distribution of positive signals in labeled cells within nucleolus and cytosol (M-GC-1, M-PC-3), or just nucleolus (M-PC-2). Our results provide a methodological basis for studying the biogeography and population dynamics of A. minutum, and providing an early warning of toxic HABs.     

Study of a thermal drill head for the exploration of subsurface planetary ice layers

The recently discovered water vapor plumes on Saturn's moon Enceladus, the polar caps of planet Mars and the possible ice volcanism on the Jovian satellites call for suitable techniques to explore deep ice layers of the solar system bodies. This paper presents a novel approach to deliver scientific probes into deeper layers of planetary ice. Several existing locomotion concepts and techniques for such probes are presented. After studying the mathematical framework of the melting locomotion process, melting tests with different head forms were done to evaluate the influence of the head's geometry on the melting process. This work led to a novel concept of a thermal drill head, using heat and mechanical drill in combination to penetrate the ice. We compare the performance of such a hybrid concept versus the melting penetration alone by a mathematical model and tests in ice with a prototype of the melting drill head.     

Detailed geomorphological survey of a small mountain drainage area, Abisko, northern Swedish Lapland

A thorough geomorphological survey of a small (2km²) drainage area has been conducted using digital magnification of aerial photographs in conjunction with field visits. The result presented is a geomorphological map where individual geomorphological features down to metre size can be identified. The study was done in connection with a project focusing on the relationship between geomorphological processes and lacustrine sedimentation. Good knowledge of the geomorphological setting and the related process activity in the catchment is important in studies using lacustrine sediments as environmental archives.
The survey reveals a small–scale geomorphology dominated by a number of different periglacial upfreezing forms together with bedrock–controlled slope processes. Three different geographically separated geomorphological assemblages were recognised with few sediment transportation pathways connecting them. Composition of substrate, soil water content and vegetation cover combined with different slope angles are probably the most important factors controlling the distribution of the geomorphological features.

Assessment of the dynamic behaviour of saturated soil subjected to cyclic loading from offshore monopile wind turbine foundations

The fatigue life of offshore wind turbines strongly depends on the dynamic behaviour of the structures including the underlying soil. To diminish dynamic amplification and avoid resonance, the eigenfrequency related to the lowest eigenmode of the wind turbine should not coalesce with excitation frequencies related to strong wind, wave and ice loading. Typically, lateral response of monopile foundations is analysed using a beam on a nonlinear Winkler foundation model with soil–pile interaction recommended by the design regulations. However, as it will be shown in this paper, the guideline approaches consequently underestimate the eigenfrequency compared to full-scale measurements. This discrepancy leads the authors to investigate the influence of pore water pressure by utilising a numerical approach and consider the soil medium as a two-phase system consisting of a solid skeleton and a single pore fluid. In the paper, free vibration tests are analysed to evaluate the eigenfrequencies of offshore monopile wind turbine foundations. Since the stiffness of foundation and subsoil strongly affects the modal parameters, the stiffness of saturated soil due to pore water flow generated by cyclic motion of monopiles is investigated using the concept of a Kelvin model. It is found that the permeability of the subsoil has strong influence on the stiffness of the wind turbine that may to some extent explain deviations between experimental and computational eigenfrequencies.     

描述岩石粘弹性固体性质的开尔文模型

大多数固体材料都具有弹性,但真实的固体却极少严格遵从弹性的虎克定律。这些固体材料的变形往往有对时间的依赖性,这种性质是流变学研究的内容。岩石是自然界最普遍的固体,它的力学性质在通常条件下可用虎克定律作精确的描述,而在漫长的地质过程中,岩石的流变特征就逐渐显现出来。地质作用越缓慢,岩石对变形时间的依赖性越明显。为精确描述岩石在地质过程的力学性质,流变学方法被引入地质学。笔者已经介绍过描述"牛顿流体"的马克斯威尔流变模型,文中介绍描述粘弹性固体的开尔文流变模型。和马克斯威尔模型一样,开尔文模型也是流变学的基本模型,它是由一个弹性元件和一个阻尼元件并联而成。文中给出开尔文模型的本构关系和地质应用的简介。
