Heavy mineral studies on Pleistocene tills from North America, Upper Palaeozoic tillites of South Africa and Australia, and late Precambrian tillites of South Australia show that the heavy mineral suites of the Pleistocene tills are dominated by amphiboles, the Upper Palaeozoic tillites by garnet, and the late Precambrian tillites by zircon and tourmaline. About half of the garnets in the Upper Palaeozoic tillites show evidence of having been rounded, and retain delicate surface chattermark trails, which indicates that these garnets have not undergone chemical attack since deposition. Although the remainder of the garnets show, by way of etching, that intrastratal solutions were active in the sediments, it is suggested that amphiboles, pyroxenes and epidote, which must have been present in the original Upper Palaeozoic heavy mineral suites, were lost primarily by the action of sorting and mechanical abrasion in beach environments prior to, and during interglacial periods. The absence of garnet and the etching of tourmaline and zircon in the late Precambrian tillites is attributed to the action of alkaline intrastratal solutions over the long time interval during which the tillites were buried in the Adelaide Geosyncline.  相似文献

Electron microprobe analyses of Ca-poor pyroxenes in gabbroic rocks of the Main Zone of the Bushveld Complex reveal that inverted pigeonites have lower Mg/Fe ratios than coexisting hypersthenes. Textural relationships, however, indicate that the two Ca-poor pyroxenes did not crystallize simultaneously from the magma. Early pigeonite reacted with the magma to form hypersthene and the difference in the Mg/Fe ratio of these two pyroxenes reflects the difference of this ratio between early pigeonite and the magma at the time of reaction. Some of the grains of early pigeonite, now inverted to hypersthene, evidently escaped this reaction with the magma. Bulk compositions of pyroxenes intermediate between that of pigeonite and hypersthene are postulated on the grounds of varying amounts of exsolved augite in the hypersthene which has originated from pigeonite by reaction with magma.  相似文献

Lithium abundances and isotopic compositions were measured by ion microprobe in individual grains of pyroxene, and in a few maskelynites and Ca-phosphates grains, from the Martian meteorite Northwest Africa 480 (NWA 480).In pyroxenes Li abundances are nearly constant from core to rim with concentrations ranging between 3 and 4 μg/g. In contrast, a significant isotopic zoning is observed with δ7Li values increasing within single crystals from ∼ −17‰ in the core to ∼ +10‰ in the rim, most of the variability being observed in the core. Plagioclase (now maskelynite) and phosphate crystals, which co-crystallized with the pyroxene rims, display similar δ7Li values. Because of the incompatible behavior of Li, the present constancy of Li concentrations within zoned pyroxenes rules out any simple crystallization model in a closed system for Li. The large Li isotopic variations observed within pyroxenes support this conclusion. There is no evidence in support of secondary alteration of NWA 480 to explain the Li isotopic variations, which thus most likely reflect magmatic processes on Mars. Degassing might explain the Li systematics observed in NWA 480 pyroxenes. Because Li has a strong affinity with water-rich fluids, a significant loss of Li from NWA 480 parental melt can happen upon melt emplacement and cooling. Such a Li loss could compensate the effect of crystal fractionation and thus help to maintain constant the Li content of the melt. Li isotopic fractionation is anticipated to accompany this process, 7Li being depleted relative to 6Li in the volatile phase. The magnitude of the isotopic change of the fractionating melts is difficult to predict because it depends on the value of the Li isotopic fractionation and on the amount of Li loss, but at first glance it seems consistent with the increase of δ7Li values observed in NWA 480 pyroxenes with increasing fractionation. The present data suggest that degassing prevailed not only during the crystallization of shergottites like Zagami and Shergotty, but also during the crystallization of the other types of basaltic shergottites.  相似文献

A transmission electron microscopic (TEM) study was conducted to investigate the stress-induced transformation mechanisms of pigeonites from two achondrites. In pigeonites from the Allan Hills 77257 ureilite, abundant lamellae of orthopyroxene-pigeonite intergrowth accompanied by minor amounts of blebby augite precipitates were observed. In pigeonites from the Juvinas eucrite, some stacking faults running through the (001) augite lamellae were observed although most of the stacking faults terminated at the host-lamella interface. High resolution TEM observation shows the fringe offset produced by the stacking fault in the Juvinas pigeonites. The magnitude of the mismatch parallel to [001] is approximately c/4, which is related to the formation of the partial edge dislocation near the host-lamella interface. The partial dislocation is imaged as an edge dislocation with an (002) extra-plane. Three partial dislocation mechanisms with distinct displacement vectors are proposed in order to explain the stress-induced transformation textures observed in the achondritic pyroxenes. Further study will be required to determine unequivocally the mechanism of atomic displacements during stress-induced transformation. However, regardless of the actual mechanism of transformation, it is not difficult to convert orthopyroxene to clinopyroxene or vice versa by this transformation from the structural point of view. Low-Ca pyroxenes are deformed without a stress-induced transformation by slip at high temperature and geologically reasonable strain rates. However, meteoritic pyroxenes can be deformed by stress-induced transformation even at high temperature because preterrestrial impact processes will produce a deformation condition with high strain rates. Deformation at high strain rates and high temperature is very important when we interpret the microtexture of meteoritic pyroxenes.  相似文献

We report the results of textural and mineralogical investigations of fragment #d(3–8)B of the Kaidun meteorite. The fragment is represented by six polished thin sections obtained by sequential sawing of a meteorite sample. Its main mineral is magnesian olivine; pyroxenes, augite and enstatite, are less abundant. The minor minerals are Fe-Ni sulfides, and the accessory minerals are chromian magnetite and apatite. The minerals show highly variable compositions. Several lithological types of material were distinguished on the basis of texture and composition. A characteristic feature is the presence of fractures, whose walls are enriched in olivine and, occasionally, sulfides. Some fractures contain relatively large euhedral crystals of zoned olivine. Olivines occurring on the walls of fractures and within fractures show a negative correlation between Mg# values and nickel content. The fragment has been subjected to multiple impact events. The material of the fragment bears evidence for intense multistage metasomatic alteration with the influx of olivine material and formation of pegmatoid-type segregations. This process has never previously been observed in meteorites, but is quite common in terrestrial massifs. The results of this study are in good agreement with our hypothesis that Phobos is the parent body of the Kaidun meteorite and indicate a possible Martian origin for Kaidun fragment #d(3–8)B.  相似文献

Several petrologic experiments have demonstrated that in igneous and metamorphic reactions amphibole minerals can break down by a subsolidus dehydration reaction, but evidence for the reaction in natural rocks has been lacking. Evidence for the breakdown of an edenite-pargasite amphibole by a subsolidus dehydration reaction has now been found in an andesite flow from Garner Mountain, southern Cascase Range. The andesite contains one modal percent of crystal clots formed of crystallites of opx, cpx, plag, K-spar, opaque and quartz. The crystal clots retain the original amphibole morphology and intra-clot pyroxenes are aligned with crystallographic c parallel to c in the amphibole precursor; these conditions would not be duplicated by a melting reaction.Microprobe analyses of the bulk clot and the intra-clot minerals suggest the solid-state reaction: 100 amph+10 SiO2=>55 cpx+33 plag+22 opx+ 1 opq+1 ksparPyroxene thermometry of the andesite groundmass pyroxenes and the intra-clot pyroxenes demonstrates that the amphibole dehydration reaction occurred in the xenocrystic amphiboles as a result of heating by the near-solidus andesite magma.  相似文献

Twenty-nine unbrecciated eucrites have been thoroughly characterized in terms of the petrologic factors that affect their spectra, such as mineral chemistry, modal adundances, grain sizes, and textures. We have conducted a combined petrologic and spectral study designed to provide insight into the petrogenesis of the basaltic crust of Vesta and the variety of rock-types that exist within it, as well as aid in the petrologic interpretation of spectra to be collected by the Dawn orbiting spacecraft. This paper details the petrology part of the study. Unbrecciated eucrite samples were selected to avoid the complications of lithologic mixing in the accompanying spectral study. A wide variety of textural types are seen within the basaltic eucrites, encompassing quenched, coarse-grained, and granoblastic samples. Zoned pyroxenes in eucrites and those that preserve a history of initial rapid cooling are rare. Nearly all eucrite samples have been thermally metamorphosed and would commonly be classified as equilibrated; however, this term reflects only the quadrilateral (Mg, Fe, and Ca) compositions of pyroxenes, and considerable variations are seen within the minor elements (Al, Ti, and Cr) in pyroxenes as well as plagioclase compositions. Determination of both pyroxene and plagioclase compositions together with pyroxene geothermometry provides a better estimate for the relative degree of thermal metamorphism a eucrite has experienced. The petrologic differences observed here might allow different eucrites to be distinguished spectrally. This is especially true for the varying pyroxene compositions as the spectra of eucrites are dominated by absorption features attributed to pyroxene.  相似文献

Garnet-clinopyroxene geothermometry has been applied to numerous rock types from the blueschist and eclogite terrain of the Sesia zone in the Western Alps. Discrepancies in apparent temperatures of up to 600° C have been found suggesting substantial deviation from ideal behaviour of the garnet-clinopyroxene equilibria in certain assemblages. Assemblages containing jadeitic pyroxenes rather than omphacitic or diopsidic pyroxenes yield very low K D (2.0) values and correspondingly high apparent temperatures (> 1,000° C). The garnets coexisting with high-Na pyroxenes have compositions similar to those coexisting with omphacitic pyroxenes. Departure from ideal behaviour of these garnets is likely to be minor and is accomodated in the formulation of the geothermometer. Numerous examples of coexisting garnet-clinopyroxene pairs indicate that there is no obvious relationship of K D with jadeite content in pyroxenes with jadeite content less than 70%, but at higher values, K D varies inversely with the jadeite content. The dependence of K D upon the jadeite content in the high-Na pyroxenes is believed to be due to the preference of M2 sites for Fe2+ in the enstatite-jadeite substitution (Fe2+MgNa–1Al–1). This substitution is usually very limited and has no demonstrable effect upon X Fe Cpx when the M1 (Fe2++Mg) content of the pyroxenes is high as in omphacitic and diopsidic pyroxenes. However, when the M1 (Fe2++Mg) content is low, as in jadeitic pyroxenes, the non-ideality of the enstatite type exchange has a marked effect on X Fe Cpx and consequently on garnet-clinopyroxene calculations.  相似文献

Disequilibrium textures in minerals are often observed in igneousrocks. Their occurrence is commonly related to the variationof intensive variables (e.g. pressure, temperature, etc.) thatperturbed a pre-existing state of equilibrium. However, if thevariation of intensive variables provides a reliable explanationfor the occurrence of disequilibrium textures in minerals, itdoes not explain why, over very short length scales (<1–2cm), in the same rock, crystals of the same mineral phase oftenappear to have reacted very differently to the disequilibriumprocess. A good example of this puzzling phenomenon is givenby clinopyroxene phenocrysts occurring in the Santa Venera alkalibasalt (Mt. Etna, Italy), in which a great variety of disequilibriumtextures, coexisting on very short length scales (<1–2cm), are observed. Clinopyroxenes exhibit heterogeneously resorbedCr–Al diopside cores around which a rim of Al–Fe3+diopside, having a highly variable area, has grown. The areaof the Al–Fe3+ diopside rim is used as a discriminantparameter for the studied pyroxenes as it displays a tri-modalstatistical distribution. In addition, the chemical zoning fromthe core to the rim of pyroxenes exhibits both continuous anddiscontinuous patterns. These continuous and discontinuous patternsare associated with crystals having low and high values of therim area, respectively. To explain these zoning patterns, amixing process between magmas having different geochemical andthermodynamic properties, governed by chaotic dynamics, is proposed.In particular, the occurrence in the same system, and at shortlength scales, of regular and chaotic regions is suggested asthe basic dynamic inducing a heterogeneous distribution of themagmas involved in the mixing process; this leads to a strongcontrol on the propagation of the disequilibrium phenomena andon the crystallization of pyroxenes, even over short lengthscales. The occurrence of regular and chaotic regions withinthe same magmatic system can explain the entire spectrum offeatures observed in the studied pyroxenes, from the occurrenceof the tri-modal distribution of rim areas to the presence oftwo distinct patterns of chemical zoning, continuous and discontinuous,from the core to the rim of pyroxenes.

We present a new method for textural analysis of mineral associationsthat uses digital back-scattered electron and X-ray images obtainedwith the electron microprobe to determine the spatial propertiesof minerals on a two-dimensional surface of the rock at differentscale lengths. We determine modal amounts and average grainsizes of each mineral in the thin section without resortingto ellipsoidal approximations of grain boundaries, and investigatethe spatial relationship of mineral pairs. The method is usedto characterize nine mantle xenoliths exhumed within kimberlitepipes in South Africa and to test whether the pyroxenes arespatially correlated with the garnets. The spatial associationof these minerals is used to develop a model for the evolutionaryhistory of the Kaapvaal peridotites. The observed distributionscan be explained by a two-stage model. In stage 1, harzburgiticresidues are produced by large extents of partial melting atshallow depths (  相似文献

The compositions of more than 300 granets and pyroxenes from 14 contact-metasomatic calcic skarn deposits and calcic-magnesia skarn skarn deposits in China have been examined using electron microprobe technique. The compositions of garnets and pyroxenes from a wide variety of ore types represent ten major classes of calcic skarn deposits (Fe, Fe-Cu, Pb-Zn,W, Sn, Sn-Mo-Bi-W, W-Bi-Cu-Mo, Cu-Zn and W-Zn-Cu) and three major classes of calcic-magnesia skarn deposits (Fe-Cu, Mo, Pb-Zn). Garnets and pyroxenes show a wide range of variation in composition, but the majority of garnets are grossular-andradite solid solutions containing less than 15 mol% (spessartine + almandine + pyrope), whereas most pyroxenes are diopside-hedenbergite solid solutions containing less than 5 mol% johannesenile. Some pyroxenes from a Pb-Zn calcic-magnesia skarn deposit display an increase in Mn content. Only Sn-W calcic skarn deposits and Pb-Zn calcic-magnesia skarn deposits contain garnets with more than 15 mol% (spessartine + almandine + pyrope). Some relationships have been established between the compositions of garnets and pyroxenes and the metallization types of economically important metals in skarn deposits.  相似文献

Pyroxenes and olivines from the trough bands in the Upper Zone (UZa) of Skaergaard Intrusion have been investigated, together with previously analysed pyroxenes (Brown, 1957; Brown and Vincent, 1963) and olivines from the Layered Series ferrodiorites. The electron microprobe, electron microscope, and analytical electron microscope EMMA-4 were used. Results show a striking difference between the cumulus and intercumulus trends of the trough-band pyroxenes. The cumulus trend follows that of the main Layered Series whereas the intercumulus trend shows a shrinking of the miscibility gap together with great enrichment in the Fs molecule, the miscibility gap being symmetrical about ～Wo24. The shrinking appears to be a function of the different crystallisation conditions in the intercumulus liquid which was closed off in “cells” from the main mass of supernatant liquid. Enrichment in the Fs molecule is due to the much lower crystallisation temperatures of the intercumulus pyroxenes. Iron enrichment is also reflected in the intercumulus olivines. For the cumulus trend, Brown's calcium-poor pyroxene trend (1957) has been extended into more iron-rich parts of the pyroxene quadrilateral, well after olivine has reappeared and subsequent to the increase in calcium of the ferroaugites. The subsolidus trend for pyroxenes in the Fs-rich region has also been established.  相似文献

The chemical composition of the pyroxenes and olivines of 12 basaltic rocks and 5 lherzolite nodules was determined quantitatively by electron micro-probe analysis. The composition of the pyroxenes depends on the type of basalt in which they occur. Tholeiitic basalts with normative quartz contain three pyroxenes: orthorombic pyroxenes, pigeonites and augites. All pyroxene phases are zoned and do not show any exsolution. Their Ti and Al contents (Ca-Tschermaks and Ti-augite molecules) are small. All pyroxene phases were formed under disequilibrium with each other and with the melt because of rapid quenching. The sequence of crystallization: orthopyroxene—pigeonite—augite could be established by their Cr content.The alkali olivine basalts undersatured in SiO2 and the olivine nephelinites are characterized by Ti and Al-rich clinopyroxenes. The distribution of Ti and Al in the pyroxenes of the alkali olivine basalts shows a differentiation trend from the cores of the phenocrysts to their outer zones and to the crystals of the ground mass. Thereby the Ca-Tschermaks molecule is being replaced more and more by the Ti-augite molecule. The Ti content of the pyroxenes of the olivine nephelinites decreases in the last stage of differentiation because simultaneously increasing amounts of titaniferous magnetite crystallize.The pyroxenes of lherzolite peridotite nodules are characterized by high Al and low Ti contents which differ according to the type of basalt (alkali olivine basalt or olivine nephelinite) in which the nodules occur. The homogeneous distribution of the elements within the single grains indicates crystallization under equlibrium conditions. The conditions of their formation are comparable to those of Al-pyroxene peridotites in the upper mantle. The composition of pyroxenes of early accumulates of alkali basaltic melts differ from those of peridotite nodules. Therefore lherzolite nodules can be taken as residues of deeper peridotite masses.  相似文献

The partition of Si, Al, Ti, Fe3+, Mg, Fe2+, Mn, Ca and Na between coexisting Ca-rich and Ca-poor pyroxenes from a wide variety of igneous and metamorphic rocks have been investigated systematically. Many of the distributions, and especially those for the partition of Ti, Mg, Fe2+, Mn and Na, indicate characteristic trends for pyroxenes from the various petrologic groups identified. The partition of Mg, Fe2+ and Mn correlate with inferred cooling rates, the partition co-efficients of pyroxenes from extruded and other quickly cooled rocks most nearly approaching unity. In contrast, the partition of Si and Ti and the absolute amounts of Al may be related to the physicochemical conditions prevailing during original crystallisation; Ti being particularly relatively enriched in Ca-rich pyroxenes of ultramafic associations. The trends of the compositions of the Ca-rich pyroxenes plotted in the pyroxene quadrilateral also correlate with cooling rates and comparison with the limited data available on the phase relations of coexisting pyroxenes suggests that sub-solidus chemical readjustments have occurred in both phases.  相似文献

Pyroxene thermometry in simple and complex systems   总被引：43，自引：2，他引：43  
Simple mixing models have been applied to ortho- and clinopyroxene solid solutions and a semi-empirical equation of state extracted from the available experimental data for the diopside-enstatite miscibility gap. This equation successfully reproduces the miscibility gap over a temperature range of 800 °C to 1700 °C and is apparently also applicable to aluminous pyroxenes in the system CaSiO3-MgSiO3-Al2O3. The effect of iron solubility in the pyroxenes has been calibrated empirically using most of the available experimental data for multicomponent pyroxenes. This semi-empirical model reproduces most of the experimental data within 70 °C. Temperatures calculated for naturally equilibrated Mg-rich two-pyroxene assemblages deviate markedly from those estimated using the thermometer of Wood and Banno (1973). These discrepancies can be attributed to large inaccuracies in the thermometer of Wood and Banno (1973) for Mg-rich compositions.  相似文献

The activity of the jadeite (NaAlSi2O6) component in synthetic pyroxenes on the binary join NaAlSi2O6-CaMgSi2O6 has been measured at 600° C by equilibration of pyroxene with quartz and high albite in hydrothermal experiments. The results are in good agreement with recent calorimetry (Wood et al. 1980) for pyroxenes not close to the Jd50Di50 composition for which a considerable degree of short range ordering on the omphacite scheme is indicated by the activity measurements. For compositions close to Jd50Di50, the activity of the jadeite component is approximately equal to its mole fraction.  相似文献
