The melting curves of CaCO3 and MgCO3 have been extended to pressures of 36 kb by experiments in piston-cylinder apparatus. At 30 kb, the melting temperatures of calcite and magnesite are 1610°C and 1585°C, respectively. New data for the magnesite dissociation reaction permit the location of an invariant point for the assemblage magnesite + periclase + liquid + vapor near 26 kb-1550°C. New data are also presented for the calcite-aragonite transition at 800°C, 950°C and 1100°C. At pressures above 36–50 kb, calcite and magnesite melt at temperatures lower than the solidus of dry mantle peridotite. Natural and experimental evidence suggests that carbon dioxide in the Earth's mantle could be present in a variety of forms: (a) a free vapor phase, (b) vapor dissolved in silicate magma, (c) crystalline carbonate, (d) carbonatite liquid, (e) carbon-bearing silicate analogs, or (f) carbonato-silicates (such as scapolite, spurrite, tilleyite, and related compounds).  相似文献

The enstatite-diopside solvus in the system Mg2Si2O6-CaMgSi2O6 has been experimentally determined within the pressure range 5–40 kbars and the temperature range 900–1500°C. Experiments involving reversal of the phase boundaries by unmixing from glass starting material and by reaction of pure clinoenstatite and diopside showed difficulty in achieving equilibration due to persistence of metastable, subcalcic clinopyroxene and to the sluggishness of reaction rate. The experimental data showed that the temperature dependence of the diopside limb is less than previously accepted. At 1500°C and 30 kbars subcalcic diopside found by Davis and Boyd (1966) is shown to be metastable with respect to enstatite and more calcic diopside of composition En42.3Di57.7. The solvus widens with increasing pressure between 5 and 40 kbars at 1200°C, but at 900°C the pressure effect on the solvus is very small. The stability relationships of the four pyroxenes, protoenstatite, enstatite, iron-free pigeonite and diopside are summarized, based on data from the literature and the present study.  相似文献

Relaxation experiments on vitreous SiO2, densified at 900°C, 20 kbar to a permanent density of 2.36 g cm?3 yield an activation energy of69 ± 5kcal mol?1 in the temperature range 700–800°C. The data can be used to estimate minimum cooling rates, maximum depositional temperatures or maximum thicknesses of shock-metamorphosed rocks containing diaplectic glasses, if relaxation of a glass densified under dynamic conditions is assumed to be similar to that of statically densified glass.  相似文献

Stepwise outgassing experiments were performed on eleven whole rock samples from a sequence of diabase dikes from the Great Northern Peninsula. Gas released at high temperatures (> ? 925–950°C) was consistently characterized by anomalously high apparent ages. These are attributed to the release of excess radiogenic argon, gas which probably resides in the mineral augite. At temperatures below ? 700°C, a wide range in apparent age was observed. On the other hand, the medium temperature region (? 700–950°C) is characterized by a relatively small range in apparent age. Data points corresponding to this region are rather well correlated in an isochron-type diagram; the slope of the best-fitting straight line corresponds to an aget = 605 ± 10m.y. We suggest that the outgassing of unaltered plagioclase is dominating the age spectra in this temperature interval. Consequently, we take 605 ± 10 m.y. as the time of emplacement of the Long Range dike swarm. This event may have marked the opening of a proto-Atlantic Ocean. The Acadian Orogeny (perhaps the ocean-closing event ? 380 m.y. ago) appears to be recorded in the low-medium temperature regions in the cases of two rather extensively altered samples.  相似文献

Samples of Ni2SiO4 in both olivine and spinel phases have been compressed to pressures above 140 kbar in a diamond-anvil cell and heated to temperatures of 1400–1800°C using a continuous YAG laser. After quenching and releasing pressure, X-ray diffraction examination indicates that the samples disproportionate to a mixture of stishovite (SiO2) and bunsenite (NiO) at pressures between 140 and 190 kbar. The exact disproportionation pressure is not certain due to transient increases in pressure during the local and rapid heating. However, thermodynamic calculations suggest that the transition pressure is about 192 ± 4 kbar at 1545°C and that the equation of the spinel-mixed oxides phase boundary isP(kbar) = 121 + (0.046 ± 0.020) T (°C).  相似文献

Biotite granite from the Sierra Nevada batholith was reacted, with known water contents in sealed platinum capsules, in a piston-cylinder apparatus between 10 and 35 kb. With the liquid just over-saturated with respect to water, temperatures for solidus and liquidus (quartz/coesite-out curve), respectively, are: 2 kb, 680°C, 715°C; 10 kb, 620°C, 725°C; 25 kb, 655°C, 800°C; 35 kb, 700°C, 850°C. The temperature interval is 35°C at 2 kb, 105°C at 10 kb, and 150°C at 35 kb, indicating that granite departs from a eutectic composition at depths greater than about 40–50 km. We conclude that crystal-liquid equilibria are not likely to yield primary rhyolite or granite magmas by partial fusion of oceanic crust in subduction zones. The solubility of water in granite liquids, in wt%, is 22.5 ± 2.5 at 25 kb and 810°C and 27 ± 2.5 at 35 kb and 850°C. These results indicate that a miscibility gap persists between water-saturated silicate magmas and aqueous vapor phase at least to pressures corresponding to 100 km depth in the mantle. The formation of kyanite near the liquidus of water over-saturated granite indicates that the aqueous vapor phase is enriched in alkalis and possibly silica, relative to the condensed phases.  相似文献

Four pyroxenes with compositions En48Fs48Wo4, En47·5Fs47·5Wo5, En45Fs45Wo10 and En40Fs40Wo20, synthesized at 1200°C at atmospheric pressure, were heat-treated at 500, 600, 700, and 800°C for various lengths of time. These pyroxenes are variously ordered with respect to Fe2+ and Mg2+ without unmixing. The Fe2+-Mg2+ distribution over the two nonequivalent sites M1 and M2, determined through Mössbauer spectroscopy, is found to be a function of both temperature and concentration of Ca2+ at the M2 site. The preference of Fe2+ for the M2 site increases with decreasing temperature and increasing Ca2+. These data can be used to determine cation equilibration temperatures of lunar and terrestrial pigeonites. The lunar pigeonites usually indicate equilibration temperatures of 700–860°C, except the pigeonite from rock 14053, which may have been subjected to shock heating due to meteoritic impact.  相似文献

High-temperature experiments on ferromagnesian compositions have been hampered by the rapid absorption of up to 95% of the original iron by platinum and 40% by silver-palladium capsules. Molybdenum or iron capsule materials can decrease or alleviate iron loss, but restrict oxygen fugacities to values near the iron-wustite buffer. Because Co2+ is stable at fO2 =HM and because the solubility of Co in platinum in this range of fO2 is ~0.05% at temperatures to 1350°C, its use as an analogue for Fe2+ is possible. In addition, experiments simulating various Fe2+ ratios can be easily performed by choosing appropriate Co2+/Fe3+ ratios. The cobalt phases produced possess brilliant and distinctive colors which are valuable aids in optical identification of minute phases. The cobalt analogue hypothesis was tested with atmospheric pressure experiments in air on the cobalt analogue of the 1921 Kilauea basalt at three simulated Fe2+/Fe3+ ratios. The results were compared with those of R.E.T. Hill (1969) for the natural 1921 basalt. The phase relations were the same, with the cobalt system stability fields systematically shifted by about +50°C. Microprobe analysis of olivines and the coexisting glasses indicate that the distribution of Co2+ between olivine and melt is independent of temperature and liquid composition. Although the analogue liquid composition differs from the equilibrium composition of the natural system, it may be corrected be employing distribution coefficients (KD = 0.61 for the Co system; KD = 0.33 for the Fe system) to closely approximate what the natural system would yield if iron loss did not occur.  相似文献

Pyroxene-garnet solid-solution equilibria have been studied in the pressure range 41–200 kbar and over the temperature range 850–1,450°C for the system Mg4Si4O12Mg3Al2Si3O12, and in the pressure range 30–105 kbar and over the temperature range 1,000–1,300°C for the system Fe4Si4O12Fe3Al2Si3O12. At 1,000°C, the solid solubility of enstatite (MgSiO3) in pyrope (Mg3Al2Si3O12) increases gradually to 140 kbar and then increases suddenly in the pressure range 140–175 kbar, resulting in the formation of a homogeneous garnet with composition Mg3(Al0.8Mg0.6Si0.6)Si3O12. In the MgSiO3-rich field, the three-phase assemblage of β- or γ-Mg2SiO4, stishovite and a garnet solid solution is stable at pressures above 175 kbar at 1,000°C. The system Fe4Si4O12Fe3Al2Si3O12 shows a similar trend of high-pressure transformations: the maximum solubility of ferrosilite (FeSiO3) in almandine (Fe3Al2Si3O12) forming a homogeneous garnet solid solution is 40 mol% at 93 kbar and 1,000°C.If a pyrolite mantle is assumed, from the present results, the following transformation scheme is suggested for the pyroxene-garnet assemblage in the mantle. Pyroxenes begin to react with the already present pyrope-rich garnet at depths around 150 km. Although the pyroxene-garnet transformation is spread over more than 400 km in depth, the most effective transition to a complex garnet solid solution takes place at depths between 450 and 540 km. The complex garnet solid solution is expected to be stable at depths between 540 and 590 km. At greater depths, it will decompose to a mixture of modified spinel or spinel, stishovite and garnet solid solutions with smaller amounts of a pyroxene component in solution.  相似文献

40Ar/39Ar age spectrum analyses of samples from Broken Hill, New South Wales, indicate that the region has experienced a complex thermal history following high-grade metamorphism, 1660 Ma ago. The terrain cooled slowly (~3°C Ma?1) until about 1570 Ma ago, when the temperature fell below about 500°C. Following granitoid emplacement ~1500 Ma ago, the region remained relatively cold until affected by a thermal pulse 520±40Ma ago, causing temperatures to rise to~350°C in some places. During this event, accumulated40Ar was released from minerals causing a significant Ar partial pressure to develop. Laboratory Ar solubility data combined with the40Ar/39Ar age spectra gives a local estimate of this partial pressure of ~10?4atm. The region finally cooled below 100°C about 280 Ma ago.40Ar/39Ar age spectrum analyses of hornblende, plagioclase and clinopyroxene containing excess40Ar are characterized by saddle-shaped age spectra. Detailed analysis of plagioclase samples reveals a complex diffusion behaviour, which is controlled by exsolution structures. This effect, in conjunction with the presumed different lattice occupancy of excess40Ar with respect to radiogenic40Ar, appears to be responsible for the saddle-shaped age spectra.  相似文献

The reaction between enstatite (En95.3Fs4.7) and CaCO3 has been studied at pressures between 23 and 77 kbars and at temperatures between 800° and 1400°C. At 1000°C enstatite and CaCO3 react to form dolomite and diopside solid solutions at pressures below approximately 45 kbars and magnesite and diopside solid solutions at higher pressures. The curve for the reaction dolomitess + enstatitess ? magnesitess + diopsidess lies between 40 to 45 kbars at 1000°C and between 45 and 50 kbars at 1200°C. It is very close to the graphite-diamond transition curve. These experimental results indicate that calcite (or aragonite) is unstable in the presence of enstatite, and that dolomite and magnesite are the stable carbonates at high pressures. The forsterite + aragonite assemblage is, however, stable to at least 80 kbars at 800°C. It is suggested that in the upper mantle where enstatite is present, dolomite is stable to depths of about 150 km and magnesite is stable at greater depths in the continental regions, assuming that the partial pressure of CO2 is equal or close to the total pressure. It is also suggested that carbonate inclusions in pyroxene can be used as an indicator of the depth of their equilibration; dolomite inclusions in enstatite would be formed at depths shallower than 150 km and magnesite inclusions in diopside at greater depths. Eclogite and peridotite inclusions in kimberlite may be classified on this basis.  相似文献

Megacrysts in the Cenozoic basalt of the Tuoyun Basin,Southwest Tianshan   总被引:2,自引:1,他引:2  
Abundant megacrysts of clinopyroxene, amphibole, anorthoclase, and phlogopite are found together with deep-seated xenoliths in the Cenozoic basalt of the Tuoyun Basin, Southwest Tianshan. The megacrysts are mainly in the cone sheet formed at the early stage of the volcanic activity. Clinopyrox-ene megacrysts are located in the lower part of the profile, with amphibole and phlogopite megacrysts in the middle part and anorthoclase megacrysts in the upper part. The crystal integrity, absence of de-formation fabric and their relation to the host basalt suggest that they were crystallized from the host magma and quickly transported to the surface. The mineralogical studies imply that the clinopyroxene megacrysts are of Al-augite with higher Al2O3 (>9%). Amphibole megacrysts are kaersutite rich in TiO2 (>4.5%). Sulfide inclusions such as pyrrhotite occur in some clinopyroxene and amphibole megacrysts. Thermodynamic calculations reveal that pyroxene megacrysts formed under the temperature of 1185.85―1199.85℃ and the pressure between 1.53 and 1.64 GPa comparable to the crust-mantle boundary and amphibole megacrysts crystallized under the pressure of around 0.85 GPa, temperature about 1000℃ comparable to the depth of 30 km. Anorthoclase megacrysts crystallized under the pressure between 0.8―1 GPa,temperature about 900℃.The absence of Ti-rich inclusions such as rutile can be considered as an evidence of quick magma ascending. The P-T conditions estimated via py-roxene megacrysts and phenocrysts compose a P-T path with a steep slope. It can be considered as another evidence of quick magma ascending. However, the estimated temperatures for amphibole megacrysts are markedly lower than those for pyroxene megacrysts given the same pressure. It probably shows that the amphiboles have crystallized at the vanguard of magma and under the vola-tile-rich condition. Thus, we can conclude that the Cenozoic basalts are produced in an extensional tectonic setting and the processes governing crystallization and ascending of the megacrysts are very complex.  相似文献

In several xenolithic ultramafic rocks from the Kola Peninsula, including a magnetic separate, abnormally high40Ar/39Ar ratios persisted at low and high temperatures. The lowest40Ar/39Ar ratio was consistently observed at intermediate temperatures (900–1100°C), indicating an apparent age of 2.8–3.1 b.y.; however, this may not indicate the formation age.The quantity of excess40Ar was estimated at each temperature fraction, adopting ages inferred from published Rb-Sr ages or the minimum40Ar/39Ar age. Excess40Ar is abundantly trapped both in mineral lattices and nonretentive trapping sites, but the trapping sites are different from those of in-situ radiogenic40Ar. The high temperature component of excess40Ar is considered to represent Ar dissolved during mineral formation in the upper mantle or the lower crust.A correlation between the amount of high temperature excess40Ar and36Ar exists for some samples. The40Arexcess/36Ar ratios of the rocks of probable upper mantle or lower crust origin vary from about 10 000 to 35 000, which may suggest large fluctuations of this ratio in the deep interior of the earth. The high value implies that most36Ar was already degassed from the earth's interior at least 2 or 3 b.y. ago.  相似文献

The hydrogen isotope fractionation factors between epidote and aqueous 1 M and 4 M NaCl, 1 M CaCl2 solutions, and between epidote and seawater, have been measured over the temperature range 250–550°C over which the degree of dissociation of dissolved species varies significantly. Measured fractionations at 350°C are decreased by up to 12‰, 9‰ and 7‰ relative to pure water in seawater, 1 M CaCl2 and 1 M NaCl respectively, while above 500°C fractionations are not measurably dependent on fluid composition. Water—solution fractionation factors are derived which are generally applicable to the correction of mineral—water hydrogen isotope fractionations for the composition of the fluid phase.The hydrogen isotope compositions of natural epidotes are interpreted in the light of experimental fractionation data for situations where temperature, δD (fluid), and, in some cases, fluid chemistry, are independently known. Epidotes from active geothermal systems have hydrogen isotope quench temperatures consistent with or close to measured well temperatures unless the measured temperature has declined substantially since epidote formation or there is uncertainty in the D/H ratio of the water associated with the epidote because of isotopic heterogeneity in the well waters. Hydrothermal and metamorphic epidotes show closure temperatures of 175–225°C and 200–250°C. There is no evidence that retrograde metamorphic fluids, if present, are isotopically different from prograde fluids.The water-solution fractionations indicate strong solute-solvent interactions between 250 and 450°C and imply that both dissociated and associated species contribute to the fractionation effects through modification of the orientations and structure of the water molecules. Solute-solvent interactions become negligible at temperatures around 550°C.  相似文献

An experimental determination of the reaction MgCO3 + MgSiO3 = Mg2SiO4 + CO2 between 20 and 40 kbars and in the range 1000–1500°C yields an average pressure effect on the equilibrium of 44 bars/°C. This result shows that the assemblage forsterite and carbon dioxide is not stable under most pressure and temperature conditions expected in the upper mantle. Hypotheses requiring the presence of free CO2 in the low-velocity zone, CO2 as a drive mechanism for kimberlite emplacement, or action of a free CO2 phase in ultramafic rocks may need considerable revision.  相似文献

40Ar/39Ar incremental heating experiments were applied to hornblendes, coarse-grained biotites and K-feldspars from 1400 m.y. old rocks near the contact with the ~60 m.y. old Eldora stock in the Front Range of Colorado. The aim was to distinguish, on the basis of argon isotopic data alone, a partially re-set K-Ar date from an undisturbed or a completely overprinted K-Ar date. In the laboratory heating of biotites the radiogenic argon (40Ar*) and potassium-derived39Ar (39Ar*) were released in two stages — in the range ~600–900°C and above ~900°C. The two biotites furthest from the contact and the one adjacent to the contact give well-defined apparent-age plateaus at ~1230 m.y. and 63 m.y. respectively for all argon released above ~600°C. The 1230-m.y. date may represent a thermal event or the end of a long cooling while the 63-m.y. date essentially represents the time of reheating. Partially overprinted biotites at intermediate distances have significantly anomalous plunges in apparent ages for argon released above ~900°C, thus distinguishing them from undisturbed and completely outgassed biotites.The bulk of the40Ar* and39Ar* in the hornblendes was released in the range ~950–1100°C. The hornblende furthest from the contact gives a well-defined plateau at 1400 m.y. for the 98% of the argon that was released above ~950°C. A partially overprinted hornblende from near the contact gives an apparent plateau at ~1050 m.y. The existence of such a false plateau precludes the distinction of partially overprinted K-Ar hornblende dates from undisturbed K-Ar hornblende dates without independent evidence. Reasonable estimates of the time of reheating are not recovered in the age spectra for partially overprinted hornblende and biotites.For the feldspars the bulk of the40Ar* and39Ar* was released in the laboratory heating between about 900°C and 1200°C, probably reflecting phase changes near these temperatures. The argon released below about 900°C records reasonable maximum dates for the time of the thermal overprinting. For the microcline 22500 (the sample number specifies the distance, in feet, from the contact) this effect is slight — a minimum date of 147 m.y. occurs in 2.3% of the total39Ar*. For samples 2400, 1070, and 85 the respective minimum dates are similar at 72, 81, and 68 m.y. and dramatically improve on the total or integrated dates of 238, 358 and 211 m.y. The high-temperature (>900°C) apparent ages for these three feldspars do not define plateaus and are geologically meaningless. The high-temperature apparent ages for the last 50% of the39Ar* released from 22500 do define a plateau, but the 1060-m.y. date is also probably geologically meaningless.  相似文献

The effects of thermal and compressional treatment on40Ar-39Ar systematics have been investigated on three artificially heated biotite samples (heated for 1 hour at 700°C and 860°C in air and 700°C in vacuum respectively) and uniaxially compressed granite (p = 1400bar) and basalt samples (p = 1650bar). The40Ar-39Ar results for the disturbed samples are compared with those for undisturbed samples. Except for the vacuum-heating case, the effects of the disturbances may be interpreted as the combined effect of a partial loss of radiogenic40Ar from the sample and an incorporation of air Ar into the sample. Common diagnostic effects are (1) reduction of the total fusion age, (2) distortion of the age spectrum and, if the degree of the partial Ar loss is small, (3) approximate preservation of the isochron age, and (4) reduction of the intercept value (40Ar/36Ar) in the isochron plot.The features observed in the age spectra of artificially disturbed samples are rather common in geologically disturbed samples, suggesting that the artificial disturbances simulate the effects of geological disturbances on40Ar-39Ar systematics.  相似文献

Co2SiO4 spinel has been found to disproportionate into its isochemically mixed oxides with rocksalt and rutile structures at pressures between 170 and 190 kbar and temperatures between 1400 and 1800°C in a diamond-anvil press. The exact disproportionation pressure is not certain due to transient increases in pressure during the local and rapid heating by a continuous YAG laser. The slope of the phase boundary between the spinel phase and the mixed oxides is calculated to be?33 ± 20bar/deg. This negative slope is consistent with the observed anomalously large entropy of CoO (relative to its isostructural oxides) in entropy vs.(MV)?1/2 systematics, whereM is the formula weight andV the molar volume. The sign of the slope for a phase boundary in the disproportionation of spinel depends on the values of entropy of the rocksalt oxides as well as the inverse character exhibited in the spinel phases. The normal entropy of MgO suggests that the phase boundary for the disproportionation of Mg2SiO4 spinel has positive slope.  相似文献

Abstract Various modes of occurrence of talc were identified in piemontite‐quartz schists collected from schist and eclogite units in the Kotsu area of the Sanbagawa Belt, eastern Shikoku, Japan. They can be classified into the following types: (A) matrix and (B) pull‐apart talc. The matrix talc is associated with aegirineaugite or glaucophane in the eclogite unit and with albite or chlorite in the schist unit. The pull‐apart talc is developed at the pull‐apart of microboudin structures of Na‐amphibole, along with albite or chlorite in samples from both units, suggesting that the pull‐apart talc was formed by Na‐amphibole consuming reactions in both units. The talc–aegirineaugite–phengite association is found in a thin layer (a few millimetres thick), with higher Na2O/(Na2O + Al2O3 + MgO) ratio in the ANM (Al2O3–Na2O–MgO) diagram projected from phengite, epidote and other minerals, in the eclogite unit. Crystals of aegirineaugite have decreased jadeite content [= 100 × Al/(Na + Ca)] and increased aegirine content [= 100 × (Na – Al)/(Na + Ca)] from the core (ca Jd40Aeg40Di20) to the rim (ca Jd23Aeg53Di24), and are replaced by winchite and albite in varying degrees at the crystal margins. Na‐amphibole is glaucophane/crossite, commonly rimmed by Al‐poor crossite or winchite at the margin in the eclogite unit, although it is relatively homogeneous crossite in the schist unit. These textures suggest that the talc‐phengite‐(aegirineaugite or glaucophane) assemblage equilibrated during an early stage of metamorphism and the pull‐apart talc was formed at a later stage in the eclogite unit. A plausible petrogenetic grid in the NCKFe3+MASH system with excess piemontite (regarded as epidote), hematite, quartz and water, pseudosection analysis for the aegirineaugite‐bearing layer and the observed mineral assemblages suggest that the talc‐aegirineaugite‐phengite assemblage is stable under high pressure conditions (ca 560–580°C and 18–20 kbar). The pull‐apart talc was formed at ca 565–580°C and 9.5–10.5 kbar by the reaction of glaucophane/crossite + paragonite = talc + albite during the decompression stage, suggesting that the piemontite‐quartz schist in the eclogite unit experienced high‐pressure metamorphism at ca 50–60 km depth and was then exhumed to ca 30 km depth under nearly adiabatic conditions.  相似文献
