The influence of NaCl, CaCl2, and dissolved minerals on the oxygen isotope fractionation in mineral-water systems at high pressure and high temperature was studied experimentally. The salt effects of NaCl (up to 37 molal) and 5-molal CaCl2 on the oxygen isotope fractionation between quartz and water and between calcite and water were measured at 5 and 15 kbar at temperatures from 300 to 750°C. CaCl2 has a larger influence than NaCl on the isotopic fractionation between quartz and water. Although NaCl systematically changes the isotopic fractionation between quartz and water, it has no influence on the isotopic fractionation between calcite and water. This difference in the apparent oxygen isotope salt effects of NaCl must relate to the use of different minerals as reference phases. The term oxygen isotope salt effect is expanded here to encompass the effects of dissolved minerals on the fractionations between minerals and aqueous fluids. The oxygen isotope salt effects of dissolved quartz, calcite, and phlogopite at 15 kbar and 750°C were measured in the three-phase systems quartz-calcite-water and phlogopite-calcite-water. Under these conditions, the oxygen isotope salt effects of the three dissolved minerals range from ∼0.7 to 2.1‰. In both three-phase hydrothermal systems, the equilibrium fractionation factors between the pairs of minerals are the same as those obtained by anhydrous direct exchange between each pair of minerals, proving that the use of carbonate as exchange medium provides correct isotopic fractionations for a mineral pair.When the oxygen isotope salt effects of two minerals are different, the use of water as an indirect exchange medium will give erroneous fractionations between the two minerals. The isotope salt effect of a dissolved mineral is also the main reason for the observation that the experimentally calibrated oxygen isotope fractionations between a mineral and water are systematically 1.5 to 2‰ more positive than the results of theoretical calculations. Dissolved minerals greatly affect the isotopic fractionation in mineral-water systems at high pressure and high temperature. If the presence of a solute changes the solubility of a mineral, the real oxygen isotope salt effect of the solute at high pressure and high temperature cannot be correctly derived by using the mineral as reference phase.  相似文献

Oxygen isotopic compositions of silicate inclusions in IVA iron meteorites have been measured with an in situ UV laser microprobe technique. The homogeneity of oxygen isotopic compositions within and among individual mineral grains has also been examined. Oxygen isotope fractionations between coexisting mineral pairs were utilized in oxygen isotope thermometry. Our measured Δ17O values, ranging from 0.97 to 1.25‰, are characteristic of a single reservoir and fully confirm the oxygen isotopic similarity between IVA irons and L/LL chondrites. Steinbach and São João Nepomuceno, containing inclusions of two silicate minerals in mutual contact, exhibit a mass-dependent fractionation of 18O/16O between tridymite and bronzite with apparent oxygen isotopic heterogeneity. The SiO2-bearing member, Gibeon, gives homogeneous oxygen isotopic compositions without detectable fractionation of 18O/16O between tridymite and quartz. Oxygen isotope equilibrium temperatures are estimated for coexisting tridymite and bronzite in the same sample slabs or clusters in Steinbach and São João Nepomuceno. The fractionations of 18O/16O between bronzite and tridymite range from 1.6 to 2.3‰ in different sample slabs or clusters. On the basis of the closure temperature concept, cooling rates are estimated at approximately 20 to 1000°C/Myr between 800 and 1000°C, a range of temperatures not accessible to other cooling rate methods. Using the Fast Grain Boundary diffusion model, we have demonstrated that significant oxygen heterogeneity both in tridymite and bronzite is probably due to isotope exchange during cooling between minerals with various grain sizes and mineral abundances in different regions of the samples. The new estimates of cooling rate by oxygen isotope thermometry refine previous cooling curves of IVA irons and support the breakup-reassembly model for the IVA parent body.  相似文献

Diffusion parameters for hydrogen diffusion in epidote-group minerals and micas have been measured under hydrothermal conditions, or calculated from existing experimental data, for bulk hydrogen isotope exchange experiments between hydrous minerals and water. Activation energies in the range 14 to 31 kcals/g-atom H are comparable to those derived by application of kinetic theory to experimental hydrogen isotope exchange data, and to those for oxygen diffusion in minerals under hydrothermal conditions. Diffusion of hydrogen in epidote is about four orders of magnitude faster than in muscovite, and about two orders of magnitude faster than in zoisite. Hydrogen diffusion in micas is about five orders of magnitude faster than oxygen diffusion, and hydrogen transport occurs dominantly parallel to the layers rather than parallel to the c-axis as for oxygen.Rapid hydrogen transport in minerals may proceed by hydrolysis of Si-O and Al-O bonds, followed by exchange of hydrolyzed oxygens with slower-diffusing (OH) or H2O. Water appears to be essential for stable isotope exchange between minerals in slowly cooling metamorphic rocks.Stable isotope data for regional metamorphic mineral assemblages suggests that water is usually present in small amounts during cooling of prograde regional metamorphic systems, and estimated closure temperatures for cessation of stable isotope exchange are often more comparable to those calculated from diffusion data than to likely temperatures of metamorphism.Alpine deformation of the Hercynian Monte Rose Granite (Frey et al. 1976) permitted access of water and initiated stable isotope exchange amongst coexisting minerals. The diffusional behaviour of species in relict Hercynian muscovites is consistent with available experimental diffusion data.  相似文献

Hydrogen isotope fractionation factors between hydroxyl-bearing minerals and water were determined at temperatures ranging between 400 and 850°C. The hydrogen isotope exchange rates for the mineral-water pairs examined were very slow. In most cases it was necessary to use an interpolation method for the determination of the hydrogen isotope equilibrium fractionation factor, αe.For the temperature range of 450–850°C the hydrogen isotope fractionation factors for the mica-water and amphibole-water systems are simply expressed as a function of temperature and the molar fractions of the six-fold coordinated cations in the crystal, regardless of mineral species, as follows: 103 In αe(mineral-water) = ? 22.4 (106T?2) + 28.2 + (2XAl ? 4XMg ? 68XFe), where X is the molar fraction of the cations. As the equation indicates, for any specific composition of the OH-bearing minerals, the change of αe with temperature, over the temperature range investigated, is the same for all minerals studied. Thus for any specified values of XAl, XMg, and XFe for these minerals, the relationship between αe and T is 103 In αe = αT?2 + k. Consequently, hydrogen isotope fractionation among coexisting minerals is temperature independent and cannot be used as a hydrogen isotope geothermometer.Some exceptions to the above general observations exist for minerals such as boehmite and kaolinite. In these minerals hydrogen bonding modifies the equilibrium hydrogen isotopic fractionation between mineral and water.  相似文献

Oxygen isotope exchange and closure temperatures in cooling rocks   总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3  
Retrograde exchange of oxygen isotopes between minerals in igneous and metamorphic rocks by means of diffusion is explored using a finite difference computer model, which predicts both the zonation profile of δ18O within grains, and the bulk δ18O value of each mineral in the rock. Apparent oxygen isotope equilibrium temperatures that would be observed in these rocks are calculated from the δ18O values of each mineral pair within the rock. In systems which cool linearly from a sufficiently high temperature or at a low enough cooling rate, such that the final oxygen isotope values are not dependent upon the initial oxygen isotope values ('slow cooling'), the apparent oxygen isotope temperature derived for a rock composed of a single mineral pair can be shown to be simply related to the Dodson closure temperatures ( T c) for the two phases and the mode of the rock. Adding a third phase into a system which undergoes 'slow' cooling will cause the apparent temperature derived for the two minerals already present to differ from the simple relationship for a two-phase system. In some systems oxygen isotope reversals can be developed. If cooling is not 'slow', then the mineral δ18O values resulting from cooling will be partly dependent upon the initial temperature of the system concerned. The model successfully simulates the mineral δ18O values that are often observed in granitic rocks. Application of the model will help in assessing the validity of oxygen isotope thermometry in different geological settings, and allows quantitative prediction of the oxygen isotope fractionations that are developed in cooling closed systems.  相似文献

Iron isotope and major- and minor-element compositions of coexisting olivine, clinopyroxene, and orthopyroxene from eight spinel peridotite mantle xenoliths; olivine, magnetite, amphibole, and biotite from four andesitic volcanic rocks; and garnet and clinopyroxene from seven garnet peridotite and eclogites have been measured to evaluate if inter-mineral Fe isotope fractionation occurs in high-temperature igneous and metamorphic minerals and if isotopic fractionation is related to equilibrium Fe isotope partitioning or a result of open-system behavior. There is no measurable fractionation between silicate minerals and magnetite in andesitic volcanic rocks, nor between olivine and orthopyroxene in spinel peridotite mantle xenoliths. There are some inter-mineral differences (up to 0.2‰ in 56Fe/54Fe) in the Fe isotope composition of coexisting olivine and clinopyroxene in spinel peridotites. The Fe isotope fractionation observed between clinopyroxene and olivine appears to be a result of open-system behavior based on a positive correlation between the Δ56Feclinopyroxene-olivine fractionation and the δ56Fe value of clinopyroxene and olivine. There is also a significant difference in the isotopic compositions of garnet and clinopyroxene in garnet peridotites and eclogites, where the average Δ56Feclinopyroxene-garnet fractionation is +0.32 ± 0.07‰ for six of the seven samples. The one sample that has a lower Δ56Feclinopyroxene-garnet fractionation of 0.08‰ has a low Ca content in garnet, which may reflect some crystal chemical control on Fe isotope fractionation. The Fe isotope variability in mantle-derived minerals is interpreted to reflect subduction of isotopically variable oceanic crust, followed by transport through metasomatic fluids. Isotopic variability in the mantle might also occur during crystal fractionation of basaltic magmas within the mantle if garnet is a liquidus phase. The isotopic variations in the mantle are apparently homogenized during melting processes, producing homogenous Fe isotope compositions during crust formation.  相似文献

Retrograde interdiffusion is widely proposed as the dominant factor in producing the stable isotopic fractionation among minerals in slowly cooled igneous and metamorphic rocks. Mineral zonation consistent with interdiffusion of stable isotopes has never been directly observed, however, leaving doubt as to the mechanism responsible for the bulk-mineral isotopic compositions commonly measured. Ion microprobe analyses of oxygen isotope ratios in magnetite were combined with conventional bulk mineral analyses and diffusion modeling to document the relationship between mineral zonation and the mechanism of retrogression inferred from bulk mineral data. Two samples of magnetitebearing, quartzo-feldspathic Lyon Mountain gneiss from the Adirondack mountains, N.Y. were studied in detail. Conventional stable isotope analysis of both samples indicates that isotope thermometers are discordant and were reset by as much as 200°C from the estimated peak temperature of 750°C. The relative order of apparent temperatures recorded by various thermometers differs between the two samples, however, with T qtz-fsp≫T mt-qtz and T mt-fsp in one sample and T qtz-fsp<T mt-qtz and T mt-fsp in the other. Diffusion modeling using the Fast Grain Boundary model shows that the former pattern of apparent temperatures is consistent with closed system interdiffusion during cooling, whereas the latter is not. The modeling predicts that 0.5 mm diameter magnetite grains common to this rock type will contain isotopic zonation of 1‰ (rims lower in δ18O than cores), and that the cores of smaller (0.1 mm) grains will be similarly lower than to the cores of large (0.5 mm) grains. Ion microprobe analysis reveals that the zoning patterns of magnetite grains from the first sample contain clear core to rim zonation in multiple grains (Δcore-rim=1.1±0.4‰) and predicted grain-size vs core composition variations, consistent with diffusion-controlled resetting of bulk mineral fractionations. In contrast, the second sample shows irregular inter-and intra-granular variations over an 8‰ range, consistent with open system alteration. These results provide direct documentation of the importance of interdiffusion in affecting stable isotope distributions in slowly cooled rocks. The correlations of bulk-mineral resetting with zonation show that bulk mineral data, when interpreted with detailed modeling, can be used to determinate what processes controlling retrogression.  相似文献

The granulites of the Fraser Range are assumed to have formed in a carbon-rich fluid, and are generally devoid of hornblende, and lack obvious hydrous retrograde features. In these granulites, pyroxene, garnet, plagioclase and quartz are the minerals most likely to retain the oxygen isotope ratios fixed at an early stage of initial granulite metamorphism. Temperature estimates using these minerals commonly suggest that oxygen isotopic exchange ceased in the range 600 to 680°C. The peak metamorphic temperature was probably ～ 850°C as based on the stability fields of the coexisting minerals and some cation temperatures from coexisting pyroxenes in these rocks. Ilmenite may be slightly out of isotopic equilibrium with the other minerals. Thus, grains of quartz, feldspar, pyroxene and ilmenite have suffered considerable oxygen isotopic exchange during the retrogressive phase of the metamorphism, in spite of the fact that very little water was present in these granulites. The observed deviation from the peak metamorphic temperatures can be explained by essentially closed system solid-state diffusion (on at least a scale of centimetres) during slow cooling of the rocks from ~850 to 650°C, followed by more rapid cooling down to ～ 300°C. Such an explanation is not at variance with the radiometric data available for rocks from the area, which suggest that the latter phase could have involved uplift rates of ?0.5 mm/yr for a period of about 40 Ma. Wholerock δ18O values on non-quartzose mafic granulites, about 7.2%., fall within the range of basalts affected by seafloor weathering.  相似文献

A compilation of 18O analyses of minerals separated from about 400 igneous and metamorphic rocks from published investigations reveals regularity in the fractionation of 18O among associated minerals, suggesting that an approach to isotopic equilibrium may be common. However, for only a minority of terrestrial rocks are these regularities sufficiently systematic to be compatible with the actual attainment and preservation of isotopic equilibrium among three minerals. Fractionations among triplets of quartz, calcite, feldspar, muscovite, and magnetite show some correspondence to those expected on the basis of experimental calibrations; however, there are also considerable deviations. The variability of natural data is such that less than half of the rocks analyzed to date would yield concordant 18O-derived temperatures. Of the additional 52 mineral triplets studied, plagioclase-pyrox-ene-ilmenite, plagioclase-pyroxene-magnetite, plagioclase-pyroxene-olivine, quartz-amphibole-garnet, pyroxene-ilmenite-magnetite, muscovite-biotite-magnetite, and quartz-muscovite-amphibole show the most systematic oxygen isotope fractionations. For 12 other mineral triplets a defined isotope fractionation relationship may be postulated to underlie the data; however for these a close approach to isotopic equilibrium is not commonly observed. For 33 of the mineral triplets an approach to isotopic equilibrium can be noted; however, the scatter of the available data is such that a systematic influence of a factor, such as temperature, on the size of the 18O fractionation could not be detected. In the past, regularities of oxygen isotope fractionations among three minerals have been used to establish secondary isotope geothermometers. Before this can be done with any reliability, however, the effects of possible retrograde isotope exchange and spurious correlation must be accounted for.  相似文献

The O18/O16 and D/H ratios have been determined for rocks and coexisting minerals from several granitic plutons and their contact metamorphic aureoles in the Santa Rosa Range, Nevada, and the Eldora area, Colorado, with emphasis on pelitic rocks. A consistent order of O18/O16 and D/H enrichment in coexisting minerals, and a correlation between isotopic fractionations among coexisting mineral pairs are commonly observed, suggesting that mineral assemblages tend to approach isotopic equilibrium during contact metamorphism. In certain cases, a systematic decrease is observed in the oxygen isotopic fractionations of mineral pairs as one approaches the intrusive contacts. Isotopic temperatures generally show good agreement with heat flow considerations. Based on the experimentally determined quartz-muscovite O18/O16 fractionation calibration curve, temperatures are estimated to be 525 to 625° C at the contacts of the granitic stocks studied.Small-scale oxygen isotope exchange effects between intrusive and country rock are observed over distances of 0.5 to 3 feet on both sides of the contacts; the isotopic gradients are typically 2 to 3 per mil per foot. The degree of oxygen isotopic exchange is essentially identical for different coexisting minerals. This presumably occurred through a diffusion-controlled recrystallization process. The size of the oxygen isotope equilibrium system in the small-scale exchanged zones varies from about 1.5 to 30 cm. A xenolith and a re-entrant of country rock projecting into an intrusive have both undergone much more extensive isotopic exchange (to hundreds of feet); they also show higher isotopic temperatures than the rocks in the aureole. The marginal portions of most plutons have unusually high O18/O16 ratios compared to normal igneous rocks, presumably due to large-scale isotopic exchange with metasedimentary country rocks when the igneous rocks were essentially in a molten state. The isotopic data suggest that outward horizontal movement of H2O into the contact metamorphic aureoles is very minor, but upward movement of H2O is important. Also, direct influx and absorption of H2O from the country rock appears to have occurred in certain intrusive stocks. The D/H ratios of biotites in the contact metamorphic rocks and their associated intrusions show a geographic correlation that is similar to that shown by the D/H ratios of meteoric surface waters, perhaps indicating that meteoric waters were present in the rocks during crystallization of the biotites.Except in the exchanged zones, the O18/O16 ratios of pelitic rocks do not change appreciably during contact metamorphism, even in the cordierite and sillimanite grades; this is in contrast to regional metamorphic rocks which commonly decrease in O18 with increasing grade. Thus, contact metamorphic rocks generally do not exchange with large quantities of igneous H2O, but regional metamorphic rocks appear to have done so.Publications of the Division of Geological Sciences, California Institute of Technology, Contribution No. 1565.  相似文献

Equilibrium boron isotopic fractionations between trigonal B(OH)3 and tetragonal B(OH)4− aqueous species have been calculated at high P-T conditions using measured vibrational spectra (Raman and IR) and force-field modeling to compute reduced partition function ratios for B-isotopic exchange following Urey’s theory. The calculated isotopic fractionation factor at 300 K, α3/4 = 1.0176(2), is slightly lower than the formerly calculated value of α3/4 = 1.0193 (Kakihana and Kotaka, 1977), due to differences in the determined vibrational frequencies. The effect of pressure on α3/4 up to 10 GPa and 723 K is shown to be negligible relative to temperature or speciation (pH) effects. Implications for the interpretation of boron fractionation in experimental and natural systems are discussed. We also show that the relationship between seawater-mineral B isotope fractionation and pH can be expressed using two variables, α3/4 on one hand, and the pKa of the boric acid-borate equilibrium on the other hand. This latter value is given by the equilibrium of boron species in water for the carbonate-water exchange, but could be governed by mineral surface properties in the case of clays. This may allow defining intrinsic paleo-pHmeters from B isotope fractionation between carbonate and authigenic minerals. Finally, it is shown that fractionation of boron isotopes can be rationalized in terms of the changes in 1) coordination of B from trigonal to tetrahedral in both fluids and minerals; and 2) the ligand nature around B from OH− in the fluid and some hydrous minerals to non-hydrogenated O in many minerals. Relationships are established that allow predicting the isotopic fractionation factor of B between minerals and fluid.  相似文献

A combined study of mineral O and Rb–Sr isotopes was carried out for a number of Mesozoic granitoids in China in order to compare the degree of O isotope equilibrium between coexisting minerals, with the validity of mineral Rb–Sr isochrons for granitoids. A scrutiny of both O isotope geothermometry and Rb–Sr internal isochron dating for corresponding minerals indicates that equilibrium O isotope fractionation between Rb–Sr isochron minerals corresponds to geologically meaningful isochron ages if the variation in 87Rb/86Sr ratio is big enough to provide reasonably small uncertainties in age. Significant deviation of the Rb–Sr isochron age from the actual age appears to depend on the difference in Sr isotopic composition between an external fluid and the igneous minerals. As a result, O isotope disequilibrium is often caused by interaction between the rock and the external fluid that results in mineral alteration. Post-magmatic alteration can cause isotope exchange between the minerals and an internally buffered fluid that is isotopically identical to the host rock. The O isotope composition of coexisting minerals in studied samples changed principally due to a decrease in temperature. Both Rb and Sr concentrations and the Sr isotope ratios of isochron minerals also changed due to the mixing of different Sr reservoirs. Nevertheless, the isochron age can remain unchanged if the mixing took place along the isochron chord between the internal fluid and the minerals from that newly altered minerals formed. This provides an insight into the effect of internal and external fluids on the validity of mineral Rb–Sr chronometry. In addition, an alternative approach is proposed to construct the cooling curve by a combined use of O isotope temperature and mineral isotope age for the granitoids of interest. Comparing with the traditional method using the empirical closure temperature for Rb–Sr chronometry, the proposed approach utilizes fewer variables with smaller uncertainties than the traditional way.  相似文献

The increment method is applied to calculation of oxygen isotope fractionation factors for common magmatic rocks. The 18O-enrichment degree of the different compositions of magmatic rocks is evaluated by the oxygen isotope indices of both CIPW normative minerals and normalized chemical composition. The consistent results are obtained from the two approaches, pointing to negligible oxygen isotope fractionation between rock and melt of the same compositions. The present calculations verify the following sequence of 18O-enrichment in the magmatic rocks: felsic rocks>intermediate rocks>mafic rocks>ultramafic rocks. Two sets of internally consistent fractionation factors are acquired for phenocryst–lava systems at the temperatures above 1000 K and rock–water systems in the temperatures range of 0–1200 °C, respectively. The present calculations are consistent with existing data from experiments and/or empirical calibrations. The obtained results can be used to quantitatively determine the history of water–rock interaction and to serve geological thermometry for various types of magmatic rocks (especially extrusive rocks).  相似文献

The apparent inconsistency in calcite-water fractionation does occur between the arithmetic combination of Zhou and Zheng [Zhou G.-T., and Zheng Y.-F. (2003) An experimental study of oxygen isotope fractionation between inorganically precipitated aragonite and water at low temperatures. Geochim. Cosmochim. Acta67, 387-399] and the experimental determination of Zhou and Zheng [Zhou G.-T., and Zheng Y.-F. (2005) Effect of polymorphic transition on oxygen isotope fractionation between aragonite, calcite and water: a low-temperature experimental study. Am. Mineral90, 1121-1130]. To resolve this issue is to acknowledge whether or not the isotope salt effect of dissolved minerals would occur on oxygen isotope exchange between water and the minerals of interest. The question is whether or not a term of mineral-water interaction should be taken into account when calculating mineral-water 103ln α factors by an arithmetic combination between theoretical 103ln β factors for mineral and water, respectively. The hydrothermal experiments of Hu and Clayton [Hu G.-X., and Clayton R.N. (2003) Oxygen isotope salt effects at high pressure and high temperature, and the calibration of oxygen isotope geothermometers. Geochim. Cosmochim. Acta67, 3227-3246] demonstrate the absence of isotope salt effect on the oxygen isotope fractionation between calcite and water, and this abnormal behavior reasonably explains the so-called inconsistency in the calcite-water fractionations of Zhou and Zheng (2003, 2005). We argue that the mineral-water correction is still necessary for calculation of fractionations in mineral-water systems. New experimental data for oxygen isotope fractionations involving dolomite and cerussite are consistent with the calculations of Zheng [Zheng Y.-F. (1999a) Oxygen isotope fractionation in carbonate and sulfate minerals. Geochem. J.33, 109-126], but also shed light on the assumptions used in modifying the increment method. We argue that the modified increment method has developed into a theoretical mean of predictive power for calculation of oxygen isotope fractionation factors for crystalline minerals of geochemical interest.  相似文献

Oxygen and hydrogen isotope fractionation factors between brucite and water were experimentally determined by chemical synthesis techniques at low temperatures of 15° to 120°C. MgCl2, Mg3N2, and MgO were used as reactants, respectively, to produce brucite in aqueous solutions. All of the synthesis products were identified by x-ray diffraction (XRD) for crystal structure and by scanning electron microscope (SEM) for morphology. It is observed that oxygen isotope fractionations between brucite and water are temperature dependent regardless of variations in aging time, the chemical composition, and pH value of solutions. Brucites derived from three different starting materials yielded consistent fractionations with water at the same temperatures. These suggest that oxygen isotope equilibrium has been achieved between the synthesized brucite and water, resulting in the fractionation equation of 103lnα=1.56×106/T2−14.1. When the present results for the brucite–water system are compared with those for systems of gibbsite–water and goethite–water, it suggests the following sequence of 18O-enrichment in the M−OH bonds of hydroxides: Al3+ − OH > Fe3+ − OH > Mg2+ − OH.Hydrogen isotope fractionations between brucite and water obtained by the different synthesis methods have also achieved equilibrium, resulting in the fractionation equation of 103lnα=−4.88×106/T2−22.5. Because of the pressure effect on hydrogen isotope fractionations between minerals and water, the present calibrations at atmospheric pressure are systematically lower than fractionations extrapolated from hydrothermal exchange experiments at high temperatures of 510° to 100°C and high pressures of 1060 to 1000 bar. Comparison of the present results with existing calibrations involving other low-temperature minerals suggests the following sequence of D-enrichment in hydroxyl-bearing minerals: Al3+ − OH > Mg2+ − OH > Fe3+ − OH.  相似文献

在特定的地质事件过程中,矿物等时线放射体系是否达到并且保持了平衡是变质岩Sm-Nd和Rb-Sr同位素年代学中的一个重要问题。在这个问题上矿物对O同位素测温与矿物等时线定年相似,因此两者之间可以相互制约。在岩浆岩和变质岩中,矿物中Sm-Nd、Sr和O之间的扩散速率在无水的条件下一般具有可比性,因此矿物之间O同位素的平衡状态可以用来对Sm-Nd和Rb-Sr定年的有效性进行检验。对大别-苏鲁造山带超高压变质岩的Sm-Nd和Rb-Sr等时线矿物进行O同位素测温,得到Sm-Nd等时线有时给出三叠纪年龄,有时给出非三叠纪年龄;对应的矿物O同位素分馏分别处于平衡和不平衡状态。对于引起非三叠纪等时线年龄的原因,一方面可以是由于榴辉岩相变质过程中同位素体系没有达到平衡,另一方面则可能角闪岩相退变质作用打破了平衡。等时线矿物中初始同位素比值的均一化速率主要受慢扩散矿物的影响,而矿物等时线时钟的启动主要受高母/子比值矿物控制。因此在变质作用过程中,只有当高母/子比值矿物同时具有快的放射成因同位素扩散速率,才可能得到有效的矿物等时线来用于变质年龄的测定。根据不同矿物中不同元素在扩散速率上的差异,能够定量估计大陆碰撞过程中榴辉岩相变质的持续时间。应用增量方法和离子孔隙度经验模型,不仅分别能够从理论上准确计算所有固体矿物的氧同位素分馏系数和获得不同矿物中元素的扩散参数,而且分别能够定量预测热力学平衡条件下共生矿物之间的18O富集顺序和相同条件下矿物中元素扩散速率的相对快慢。  相似文献

Correlative fractionation relationships of sulphur isotope data for coexisting sulphate and sulphide pairs from hydrothermal ore deposits on δ38S versus Δ34S diagrams are deciphered theoretically. Taking into account dissolved H2S and SO42- in hydrothermal fluids during precipitation of both sulphate and sulphide minerals, a 4-species closed system is suggested for describing the conservation of mass among all sulphur-bearing species on the δ-Δ diagrams. The covariation in the δ34S values of both sulphate and sulphide is ascribed to isotopic exchange between oxidized and reduced sulphur species during mineral precipitation. The isotopic exchange could be a thermodynamic process due to simple cooling of high temperature fluids, which results in an equilibrium fractionation, or a kinetic process due to mixing of two sulphur reservoirs, which leads to a disequilibrium fractionation. The δ34S value of total sulphur in a hydrothermal system could change due to the precipitation of minerals, or due to the escape of H2S and/or SO42-. Sulphur isotope data for anhydrite and pyrite pairs from the Luohe porphyrite iron deposit in the Yangtze River Valley is used to illustrate the mixing responsible for the disequilibrium fractionation.  相似文献

Oxygen isotope analyses of quartz-Al2SiO5 pairs have been made for samples from the Mica Creek area, British Columbia. We have analysed quartz–kyanite nodules and quartz–kyanite and quartz–sillimanite in multiphase pelitic rocks from the staurolite–kyanite, kyanite, and sillimanite zones. Apparent temperatures calculated from oxygen isotopic fractionation range from 555 °C (staurolite–kyanite zone) to 695 °C (sillimanite zone). Temperatures from the quartz–kyanite nodules range from 630 to 675 °C. Some of the nodules show isotopic disequilibrium. Most of the results confirm predictions that bimineralic rocks will yield an estimate of peak metamorphic temperatures, when the less abundant mineral (an aluminium silicate) is the slower oxygen diffuser. Using cooling rates of 10–100 °C Ma?1 for the multiphase rocks, measured crystal sizes and modes, the Fast Grain Boundary diffusion model with ‘wet’ diffusion data (PH2O?1.0 kbar) yields predicted apparent temperatures which are generally lower than the measured apparent temperatures. The agreement is improved if slower diffusion coefficients are used. This suggests that f (H2O) during cooling was lower than that of the hydrothermal experiments and thus that there was little interaction with aqueous fluids of internal or external origin to modify the isotopic compositions. The measured apparent isotopic temperatures and apparent garnet–biotite Fe–Mg exchange temperatures show very poor agreement for the sillimanite zone samples, with the garnet–biotite Fe–Mg exchange temperatures generally higher than the oxygen isotope temperatures. Compared with the other calibrations that we tested the measured apparent temperatures using the Sharp calibration show the best agreeement with recently published P–T grids, although some variability in agreement is expected due to variable f (H2O) during cooling.  相似文献

A generalized approach for retrieving equilibrium isotope fractionations from natural rocks is proposed in which models of prograde reaction histories and retrograde diffusional exchange are used to identify coexisting minerals with similar isotope closure temperatures. Examples using literature data and new analyses from 32 natural amphibolite-facies schists demonstrate both the feasibility and limitations of obtaining equilibrium oxygen isotope fractionations from minerals in natural rocks. By screening samples according to the theoretical models, natural data are shown to have highly consistent mineral fractionations (±2σ reproducibilities of ±0.16 to 0.54‰) that within uncertainty reproduce experimental determinations among the minerals quartz, biotite, muscovite, and calcic amphibole. This correspondence indicates that the proposed theoretically-based selection criteria improve the likelihood of measuring equilibrium fractionations. The new data further corroborate the expected progressive enrichment of δ18O in the orthosilicates with increasing Al+Si relative to Fe+Mg: Δ(Ky-Grt) ∼1.05‰, Δ(St-Grt) ∼0.6‰, and Δ(St-Cld) ∼0.3‰ at 525–575 °C. In contrast, typical samples that fail to satisfy screening criteria exhibit fractionations involving quartz, biotite, and amphibole that are strongly disequilibrium because of exchange during cooling. Theoretical screening of samples prior to isotope analysis allows robust, independent assessment of theoretical and experimental determinations of equilibrium isotope fractionations.

Aragonite was precipitated in the laboratory at 0, 5, 10, 25, and 40 °C to determine the temperature dependence of the equilibrium oxygen isotope fractionation between aragonite and water. Forced CO2 degassing, passive CO2 degassing, and constant addition methods were employed to precipitate aragonite from supersaturated solutions, but the resulting aragonite-water oxygen isotope fractionation was independent of the precipitation method. In addition, under the experimental conditions of this study, the effect of precipitation rate on the oxygen isotope fractionation between aragonite and water was almost within the analytical error of ±∼0.13‰ and thus insignificant. Because the presence of Mg2+ ions is required to nucleate and precipitate aragonite from Na-Ca-Cl-HCO3 solutions under these experimental conditions, the influence of the total Mg2+ concentration (up to ∼0.9 molal) on the aragonite-water oxygen isotope fractionation was examined at 25 °C. No significant Mg2+ ion effect, or oxygen isotope salt effect, was detected up to 100 mmolal total Mg2+ but a noticeable isotope salt effect was observed at ∼0.9 molal total Mg2+.On the basis of results of the laboratory synthesis experiments, a new expression for the aragonite-water fractionation is proposed over the temperature range of 0-40 °C:
