Rare-earth elements as source indicators of Pan-African granites from Obudu Plateau,Southeastern Nigeria

The rare-earth element （REE） concentrations of representative granite samples from the southeast of the Obudu Plateau, Nigeria, were analyzed with an attempt to determine the signatures of their source, evolutionary history and tectonic setting. Results indicated that the granites have high absolute REE concentrations （190×10^-6-1191×10^-6; av.=549×10^-6） with the chondrite-normalized REE patterns characterized by steep negative slopes and prominent to slight or no negative Eu anomalies. All the samples are also characterized by high and variable concentrations of the LREE （151×10^-6-1169×10^-6; av.= 466×10^-6）, while the HREE show low abundance （4×10^-6-107×10^-6; av.=28×10^-6）. These are consistent with the variable levels of REE fractionation, and differentiation of the granites. This is further supported by the range of REE contents, the chondrite-normalized patterns and the ratios of LaN/YbN （2.30-343.37）, CeN/YbN （5.94-716.87）, LaN/SmN （3.14-11.68） and TbN/YbN （0.58-1.65）. The general parallelism of the REE patterns, suggest that all the granites were comagmatic in origin, while the high Eu/Eu＊ ratios （0.085-2.807; av.=0.9398） indicate high fo2 at the source. Similarly, irregular variations in LaN/YbN, CeN/YbN and Eu/Eu＊ ratios and REE abundances among the samples suggest behaviors that are related to mantle and crustal sources.     

胶东温泉地热水及温度与其他要素的相关分析

本文根据胶东地区14处温泉地热水中阴离子的组份和含量,将14处地热水划分为Ⅰ_1、Ⅰ_2、Ⅱ_1、Ⅱ_2 、Ⅲ型。经分析时比,笔者认为区内Ⅱ_1、Ⅱ_2型地热水提供的热量及开发潜力均大于其它类型。并且地热水的温度与其它要素之间存在着密切的相关性。这些相关性的分析在地热勘查及温泉开发等方面有着重要的意义。     

伊利石多型——斑岩铜矿化的指示剂

德兴矿区内普遍存在伊利石 ,其多型特征表明 ,矿化围岩与区域围岩 (>2km)中伊利石的矿物结构与矿化流体有关。经长期埋藏变质作用 ,区域围岩中形成了结晶程度完好的 2M1伊利石 ,K櫣ｂｌｅｒ指数为 0 .1 6°,Ir=1 ,无膨胀层 ,是浅变质作用的产物。与发育热液成因 1M伊利石的花岗闪长斑岩一样 ,矿化围岩发育了具有较高K櫣ｂｌｅｒ指数 (平均值为 0 .5 5°)、含少量的膨胀层 (1 %～ 5 % )、1M型伊利石 ,它是热液流体作用下伊 /蒙矿物逆向退化的结果 ,且受热液流体量及水 /岩比制约。在此 ,斑岩铜矿中伊利石多型可能成为有效的矿化晕指示剂。
