松辽盆地晚白垩世粘土矿物特微及沉积环境分析

松辽盆地晚白垩世地层是由一套砂泥岩组成,储集了丰富的石油资源。过去一般认为这是一个内陆湖泊,为陆相沉积。近年来不少研究者从古生物、岩矿等方面提出与海有关的成因观点。本文根据对该区上白垩统泥岩粘土矿物进行了研究后认为,晚白垩世松辽盆地是个近海陆盆,气候温暖干燥,间转湿润,以淡水-半咸水碱性介质为主,青山口组及嫩江组沉积时,水域扩大,水体含盐度、碱性、还原性增强,可能遭受海侵。这些分析对含油地层的成因研究具有一定的意义。

CLAY MINERALS OF LATE CRETACEOUS SONG-LIAO BASIN AND THEIR SEDIMENTARY ENVIRONMENT

Clay minerals in ancient deposits are regarded as sensitive indicators for the changes in sendimentary environment, which makes it possible to trace back to the origin of materials, paleoclimatic conditions and environmental characteristics of sedimentary basins. The samples studied in this paper were detrmined by means of X-ray diffraction, differential thermal analysis,infrared absorbed spectral analysis, electron microscope and chemical analysis. These analyses show that the clay fractions in Late Cretaceous consist of smectite, illite, chlorite with a minor amount of quartz, feldspar, analcite and carbonate among which the illite is the most abundant and common clay mineral in the basin, and it is mostly detrital in origin, with some characters inherited form the mother rock according to TEM studies. The Qing Shankou and Nenjiang Formations contain hexagonal authigenic illite, which was formed by the fixation of potassium and the expulsion of inter-layer water on smectite layers through diagenetic alternation, reflecting a condition of alkaline water medium rich in K+. The smectite appears abundant throughout the formations except the Qing Shankou Formation which chiefly originated form volcanic source rocks and was formed under an alkaline medium condition with a hot and arid climate. The chlorite includes detrital and authigenic forms. The content of the former might indicate the distance of the sediments from the erosion areas, while that of the authigenic can be interpreted as a result of halmyrolytic alternation, reflecting effects of the sea water. The analcite is also related to volcanic materials which were transformed into analcites under a condition of water medium with increasing salinity and alkalinity through diagenetic alternation.Therefore,the presence of analcite indicates an environment marked by the increasing salinity and alkalinity. The terrigenous feldspar is one of the important non-clay minerals in the basin, and its well-preserved tabular crystals indicating an arid paleoclimatic condition. The"suitable B content" of the clay minerals relates directly to paleosalinity, possibly indicating the salinity of water medium. The clay assemblages and stratigraphic variations can be summarized as follows: The Quantou Formation is composed of illite, chlorite, smectite and non-clay minerals such as feldspar and quartz. The"suitable B content"is 140 ppm, reflecting a condition of fresh water and alkaline water medium with hot to arid climates and representing sediments close to erosion areas. In the Qing Shankou Formation, the clay fractions are rich in illite with small quantity of authigenic chlorite, illite and analcite, but no smectite and feldspar, the"suitable B content"is 240 ppm.These sedimentary components had ever been subjected to transgression, indicating a brackish and alkaline water medium. The Yaojia Formation contains illite and smectite with rich feldspar, but no chlorite, the"suitable B content"is 100 ppm, suggesting drier climate than before and a fresh water medium condition. Nenjiang Formation is characterized by the abundant smectite associated with illite, chlorite and feldspar. The "suitable B content" is 285 ppm, reflecting a brackish water medium. The well-crystallized smectite in Members D1 and D3 indicates a stable and deepened water body. The feldspar decreases from Member D3 upwards, and the siderite appears. The basin was uplifted under a moist climate. Based on the preliminary study, the author is inclined to suggest that the Late Cretaceous Song-Liao basin should be a hemipelagic one rather than an inland lake as traditionally recognized, and that its strata were mainly formed under the enviro-ment with an arid paloeoclimate and a freshbrackish alkaline water medium.Both the Qing Shankou and Nenjiang Formations had been subjected to transgression. These results are somewhat useful in the genetic research on oil-bearing strata.
