Crustal structures around the Yamato Basin in the southeastern Sea of Japan, inferred from recent ocean bottom seismography (OBS) and active-source seismological studies, are reviewed to elucidate various stages of crustal modification involved from rifting in the crust of the surrounding continental arc to the production of oceanic crust in the Yamato Basin of the back-arc basin. The northern, central, and southern areas of the Yamato Basin have crustal thicknesses of approximately 12–16 km, and lowermost crusts with P-wave velocities greater than 7.2 km/s. Very few units have P-wave velocities in the range 5.4–6.0 km/s, which corresponds to the continental upper crust. These findings, combined with previous geochemical analysis of basalt samples, are interpreted to indicate that a thick oceanic crust has been formed in these areas of the basin, and that this oceanic crust has been underplated by mantle-derived magma. In the central Yamato Basin, the original continental crust has been fully breached and oceanic crust has been formed. Conversely, the presence of a unit corresponding to the continental upper crust and the absence of a high-velocity part in the lower crust implies that the southwestern edge of the Yamato Basin has a rifted crust without significant intrusion. The Oki Trough has a crust that is 17–19 km thick with a high-velocity lower crust and a unit corresponding to the continental upper crust. The formation of the Oki Trough resulted from rifting with magmatic intrusion and/or underplating. We interpret these variations in the crustal characteristics of the Yamato Basin area as reflecting various instances of crustal modification by thinning and magmatic intrusion due to back-arc extension, resulting in the production of a thick oceanic crust in the basin. 相似文献

We report on the petrology, mineralogic properties and contents of major elements and trace elements Ag, Au, Bi, Cd, Co, Cs, Ga, In, Rb, Se, Te, Tl, U and Zn (determined by radiochemical neutron activation analysis) in Yamato 74160, interpreted as an LL7 chondrite. All properties are consistent with this meteorite having been recrystallized and partially melted locally once at temperatures well above 1090°C under conditions such that some minerals (e.g. plagioclase, euhedral pyroxene, tetrataenite) grew from melt pockets and siderophilic and chalcophilic elements were lost by extraction into eutectic melt that drained away. Inhomogeneous plagioclase compositions and mobile element loss suggest shock as the most likely heat source. Yamato 74160, while inferentially chondritic, is a larval achondrite: even higher temperatures and longer times would have been required to cause the separations necessary to transform it to an identifiable achondrite type. 相似文献

The rare gases He, Ne, Ar, Kr and Xe were measured in bulk samples of Yamato 74123. The 3He and 21Ne exposure ages are found to be 5.50 Ma and 2.83 Ma, respectively. In addition to the cosmogenic component the samples contain primordial rare gases of the fractionated type in amounts typical of ureilites. In a three-isotope plot neon turns out to be a mixture of planetary neon and cosmogenic neon.The elements Na, Mg, Al, Si, P, S, K, Ca, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, and Ni have been determined by spark source mass spectrometry in Yamato 74123 and for comparison in the ureilites Haveröand Kenna. The chemical composition as well as the noble gas abundance pattern identify Yamato 74123 as an ureilite. 相似文献

A new model is proposed for the structure of the Kaapvaal craton lithosphere. Based on chemical thermodynamics methods, profiles of the chemical composition, temperature, density, and S wave velocities are constructed for depths of 100–300 km. A solid-state zone of lower velocities is discovered on the S velocity profile in the depth interval 150–260 km. The temperature profiles are obtained from absolute values of P and S velocities, taking into account phase transformations, anharmonicity, and anelastic effects. The examination of the sensitivity of seismic models to the chemical composition showed that relatively small variations in the composition of South African xenoliths result in lateral temperature variations of ～200°C. Inversion of some seismic profiles (including IASP91) with a fixed bulk composition of garnet peridotites (the primitive mantle material) leads to a temperature inversion at depths of 200–250 km, which is physically meaningless. It is supposed that the temperature inversion can be removed by gradual fertilization of the mantle with depth. In this case, the craton lithosphere should be stratified in chemical composition. The depleted lithosphere composed by garnet peridotites exists to depths of 175–200 km. The lithospheric material at depths of 200–250 km is enriched in basaltoid components (FeO, Al2O3, and CaO) as compared with the material of garnet peridotites but is depleted in the same components as compared with the fertile substance of the underlying primitive mantle. The material composing the craton root at a depth of ～275 km does not differ in its physical and chemical characteristics from the composition of the normal mantle, and this allows one to estimate the thickness of the lithosphere at 275 km. The results of this work are compared with data of seismology, thermal investigations, and thermobarometry. 相似文献

Thermal histories of chondrite parent bodies are calculated from an initial state with material in a powder-like form, taking into account the effect of consolidation state on thermal conductivity. The very low thermal conductivity of the starting materials makes it possible for a small body with a radius of less than 100 km to be heated by several hundred degrees even if long-lived radioactive elements in chondritic abundances are the only source of heat. The maximum temperature is determined primarily by the temperature at which sintering of the constituent materials occurs. The thermal state of the interior of a chondrite parent body after sintering has begun is nearly isothermal. Near the surface, however, where the material is unconsolidated and the thermal conductivity is much lower, the thermal gradient is quite large. This result contradicts the conventional “onion-shell” model of chondrite parent bodies. But because the internal temperature is almost constant through the whole body, it supports a “multiple-parent bodies” model, according to which each petrologic type of chondrite comes from a different parent body. 相似文献

Petrographic and chemical studies of the Qingzhen chondrite strongly suggest that it is the most highly unequilibrated (type 3) enstatite chondrite recognized so far. Qingzhen contains abundant, well-defined chondrules, some of which were incompletely molten during the chondrule formation process. The relict olivine grains within these chondrules contain dusty inclusions of almost pure metallic Fe, which appear to be the in-situ reduction product of the fayalitic component of the olivine. The reduction process presumably took place at the time of chondrule formation and the chondrule precursor material must have been more oxidized than average enstatite chondrite material. We believe that this oxidized material may have formed at the enstatite chondrite formation location in the solar nebula, provided fluctuations in the degree of oxidation of the nebular gas existed at such locations. Reheating of this material under more reducing conditions would lead to the observed reduction of the olivine. Igneous olivines within chondrules always contain detectable amounts of CaO, while relict olivines are essentially CaO-free. This seems to suggest that the relict olivines did not originate during a previous igneous process of chondrule formation and might represent condensation products from the early solar nebula. 相似文献

Four phyllosilicate-rich micrometeorites (MMs) were investigated by a synchrotron radiation X-ray diffraction technique and transmission electron microscopy. Three are saponite-rich MMs and one is a serpentine-rich one. In the saponite-rich MMs, we could not find serpentine, and vice versa in the serpentine-rich MM. In the saponite-rich MMs, major constituent minerals are saponite, Fe- and Ni-bearing sulfides, and magnetite. Two saponite-rich MMs contain fine-grained magnesiowüstite-rich aggregates. The aggregates consist of <50 nm polygonal magnesiowüstite coexisting with minor Fe sulfide grains. Their texture, chemical composition, and the result of heating experiments on matrix fragments of the Tagish Lake carbonaceous chondrite strongly suggest that these aggregates were formed by the breakdown of Mg- and Fe-rich carbonate grains when the MMs entered the Earth’s atmosphere. The estimated major mineral assemblage of the saponite-rich MMs before entering the Earth’s atmosphere is very similar to that of the Tagish Lake carbonate-rich lithology, and we suggest that the MMs and the meteorite were derived from similar asteroids. The major mineral assemblage and texture of the matrix of serpentine-rich MM are similar to the matrix of the Sayama CM2 chondrite that experienced heavy aqueous alteration. Chemical compositions of serpentine in the MM suggest that the degree of aqueous alteration of the MM is weaker than that of Sayama. In the MM, cronstedtite does not coexist with tochilinite, which is different from CM2 chondrites that experienced weak to moderate aqueous alteration. However, the possibility that the serpentine-rich MM was derived from the CM chondrite asteroid cannot be ruled out, because tochilinite can be preferentially decomposed during atmospheric entry heating due to its lower decomposition temperature than that of cronstedtite. 相似文献

A self-consistent approach is proposed for the investigation of the thermal conditions, chemical composition, and internal structure of the upper mantle of the Earth. Using this approach, the thermal state of the lithospheric mantle beneath the Siberian Craton (SC) is reconstructed from P velocities, taking into account the phase transitions, anharmonicity, and the effects of anelasticity. The velocities of seismic waves are more sensitive to temperature than to the composition of the mantle rocks, which allows the velocity models to be effectively used for reconstruction of the thermal regime of the mantle. The temperature at depths 100–300 km is reconstructed by inversion of the Kraton and Kimberlit superlong seismic profiles for compositions of the garnet harzburgite, lherzolite, and intermediate composition of garnet peridotite. The averaged temperature in the normal continental mantle is reconstructed by inversion of the IASP91 reference model for depleted and fertile substance. One-dimensional models and two-dimensional thermal fields undergo a substantial fall in temperature (～300–600°C) beneath the Siberian Craton as compared to the temperatures of the continental mantle and paleotemperatures inferred from the thermobarometry of xenoliths. Temperature profiles of the Siberian Craton deduced from seismic data lie between the conductive geotherms of 32.5–40.0 mW/m2 and below the P(H)-T values obtained for low- and high-temperature xenoliths from the Mir, Udachnaya, and Obnazhennaya kimberlite pipes. The thickness of the thermal lithosphere estimated from the intersection with the potential adiabat is 300–320 km, which is consistent with the data on heat flows and seismotomographic observations. This provides grounds for the assumption that the low-temperature anomalies (thermal roots of continents) penetrate down to a depth of 300 km. The analysis of the sensitivity of seismic velocity and density to the variations in temperature, pressure, and chemical and phase composition of petrological models shows that recognition of fine differences in chemical composition of the lithospheric rocks by seismic methods is impossible. 相似文献

We present the results of long-term deep geoelectric studies using the JASC (Japan Sea Cable) submarine communication cable in the region of the Sea of Japan. In the 2D inversion of the amplitude and phase’s apparent resistivity curves and the frequency dependences of the tipper, we invoked the geological and geophysical information about the region and on-shore electromagnetic observations to fit the model to the observations. The resulting geoelectrical cross section of the region of the Sea of Japan along the JASC cable obtained in this way agrees well with the experimental data. The upper part of the section contains a conductive block beneath the bottom of the Central basin of the Sea of Japan at a depth of 10–40 km, a fault submerging below the continent in the marginal part and a deep fault in the continental region. In the lower portions of the cross section, the high-resistivity block interrupts the continuity of the horizontal conductive layers beneath the Yamato Uplift, and the conductive bottom part of the geoelectric cross section submerges under the continent. In the continental segment of the cross section, there is a large block with reduced electric resistivity, which is located between the conductive layers at a depth interval of 200–560 km. We analyze the characteristic features of the geoelectric cross section and the deep section imaged by seismic tomography in the region of the Sea of Japan. 相似文献

Abstract Phase transformations in model mantle compositions and those in subducting slabs have been reviewed to a depth of 800 km on the basis of recent high-pressure experimental data. Seismic velocity and density profiles in these compositions have also been calculated using these and other mineral physics data. The nature of the seismic velocity and density profiles calculated for a pyrolite composition was found to generally agree with those determined by seismic observations (e.g. PREM). The locations of the seismic discontinuities at 400 and 670 km correspond almost exactly to the depths where the transformations of the olivine component to denser phases take place. Moreover, the steep gradients in the seismic velocity/density profiles observed between these depths are qualitatively consistent with those expected from the successive transformations in the complementary pyroxene-garnet component in the pyrolite composition. Further, the calculated seismic velocity and density values agree well with those observed in the upper mantle and mantle transition region within the uncertainties attached to these calculations and observations. Pyrolite or peridotite compositions are thus most likely to represent the composition of the mantle above 670 km depth, although some degrees of chemical heterogeneity may exist in the transition region. The observed sharp discontinuous increases of seismic velocities and density at this depth may be attributed either to the phase transformation to a perovskite-bearing assemblage in pyrolite or to chemical composition changes. Density profiles in subducted slabs have been calculated along adequate geotherms assuming that the slabs are composed of the former oceanic crust underlain by a thicker harzburgitic layer. It is shown that the former oceanic crust is substantially less dense than the surrounding pyrolite mantle at depths below 670 km, while it is denser than pyrolite in the upper mantle and the transition region. The subducted former oceanic crust may be trapped in this region, forming a geochemically enriched layer at the upper mantle-lower mantle boundary. Thick and cool slabs may penetrate into the lower mantle, but the chemically derived buoyancy may result in strong deformation and formation of megalith structures around the 670 km seismic discontinuity. These structures are consistent with those detected by recent seismic tomography studies for subduction zones. 相似文献

Seven samples of the unique St. Mesmin meteorite have been analyzed by instrumental and radiochemical neutron activation analysis for Na, Ca, Sc, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Zn, Ga, Ge, Se, In, Sm, Yb, Ir and Au. St. Mesmin is unique in being the only ordinary chondrite known to contain an unmelted xenolith of another ordinary chondrite. Data for two host matrix samples and three light clasts are consistent with their classification as LL chondrite material. The composition of the large dark xenolith confirms earlier evidence that it is an H chondrite; volatile abundances are consistent with it being highly shocked, petrologic type-4 material. In an olivine microporphyry, siderophile abundances are mostly about 0.13 times LL abundances, an apparent indication of metal loss during the shock melting which produced the clast. As in other regolithic chondrites, the dark host has higher contents of highly volatile elements than do the light clasts. We suggest that this results from a combination of differences in intensity of preexisting metamorphism as well as a redistribution of volatiles during regolith gardening.The H-group xenolith in St. Mesmin is a relatively recent addition to the parent body (< 1.4 Ga ago), but it is argued that this does not require regolith activity at that time. Rather the view is supported that the regolith period occurred very early in the meteorite's history (≳4.0 Ga ago) and may have been related to the growth of the parent body. The H-group fragment may be part of the projectile whose impact excavated the St. Mesmin meteoroid from the LL parent body. 相似文献

The majority (26/37) of the largest chondrules (d ≥ 1400 μm) exposed in a thin section of the Manych chondrite are more or less rounded fragments of microporphyry, most of which contain from 50 to 80 vol.% olivine. Modal and phase analyses were used to calculate the approximate bulk compositions of nine such chondrules. Six vary modestly around the mean composition of L-group chondrites less most of their metal and troilite and are thought to have formed by bulk melting of L-group material with loss of an immiscible Fe-Ni-S liquid. Two other chondrules, which are olivine-rich and Na- and Si-poor, formed in the same way but with some loss of volatile constituents to a vapor phase. The ninth chondrule, an olivine-poor microporphyry, may be a non-representative sample of a coarser microporphyritic rock.Comparison of these microporphyritic chondrules with the products of controlled cooling experiments and with chemically similar olivine microporphyry in the St. Mesmin chondrite (LL-breccia) suggests that the microporphyritic chondrules are fragments of magmatic rocks which crystallized from masses of liquid no less than 10 cm across. 相似文献

A comparison of recent bulk chemical analyses of fresh, well-classified ordinary chondrites reveals that the unequilibrated H-3 and LL-3 chondrites tend to be iron-poor relative to equilibrated H- and LL-group chondrites (types 4–6). A more complex relationship in the L-group suggests that it consists of two chemical subgroups, in each of which iron is deficient in the lower petrologic types. The available data suggest that the chondrite parent bodies accreted inhomogeneously. 相似文献

Constant observations of the eruption process of Bezymianny volcano and an incessant control of the properties and volume of ejected products enabled us to reconstruct cristallization conditions of the magma in the top parts of the volcanic vent assumedly to a depth of 6–8 km. Substantial changes in the mineralogy and petrography of lavas have been recorded during the thirteen years of the activity of the volcano. Hornblende andesites of the first portions of eruptions were replaced by bipyroxene andesites, in which the second generation of phenocrysts had appeared — subphenocrysts. The content of subphenocrysts was progressively increasing with a simultaneous drop in the amount of glass to nearly one half of the former amount. In the process of eruption the chemical composition of rocks did not change: a high viscosity of the melt prevented a differentiation in the upper parts of the magmatic column. A relative permanence of the composition and amount of phenocrysts of plagioclase and pyroxene throughout all the eruption stages indicates that already at a depth of 7–8 km the melt contains intratelluric phenocrysts. The appearance in lavas of the last eruption stage of phenocrysts belonging to the 2nd generation despite an unchanged chemical composition, indicates their cristallization in subsurface conditions in the interval of 5–10 years. 相似文献

We model the internal structure of the Moon, initially homogeneous and later differentiated due to partial melting. The chemical
composition and the internal structure of the Moon are retrieved by the Monte-Carlo inversion of the gravity (the mass and
the moment of inertia), seismic (compressional and shear velocities), and petrological (balance equations) data. For the computation
of phase equilibrium relations and physical properties, we have used a method of minimization of the Gibbs free energy combined
with a Mie-Gr@uneisen equation of state within the CaO-FeO-MgO-Al2O3-SiO2 system. The lunar models with a different degree of constraints on the solution are considered. For all models, the geophysically
and geochemically permissible ranges of seismic velocities and concentrations in three mantle zones and the sizes of Fe-10%S
core are estimated. The lunar mantle is chemically stratified; different mantle zones, where orthopyroxene is the dominant
phase, have different concentrations of FeO, Al2O3, and CaO. The silicate portion of the Moon (crust + mantle) may contain 3.5–5.5% Al2O3 and 10.5–12.5% FeO. The chemical boundary between the middle and the lower mantle lies at a depth of 620–750 km. The lunar
models with and without a chemical boundary at a depth of 250–300 km are both possible. The main parameters of the crust,
the mantle, and the core of the Moon are estimated. At the depths of the lower mantle, the P and S velocities range from 7.88 to 8.10 km/s and from 4.40 to 4.55 km/s, respectively. The radius of a Fe-10%S core is 340 ± 30

Allan Hills 85085 is a chemically and mineralogically unique chondrite whose components have suffered little metamorphism or alteration. This chondrite is unique because it has fewer and smaller chondrules (4 wt. %; mean diameter 16 μm) than any other chondrite, more metallic Fe,Ni (36%) and lithic and mineral silicate fragments (56%), and a lower abundance of troilite (2%) and volatiles. Most chondrules are cryptocrystalline or glassy and are depleted in volatiles, some small chondrules are also very depleted in refractory lithophiles. Matrix lumps (4%) partly resemble CI and CM matrices and may be foreign to the parental asteroid. Despite these differences, the components of ALH 85085 have some features common to most type 2 and the least metamorphosed type 3 chondrites: metallic Fe,Ni grains that contain 0.1–1 wt.% Cr, Si and P; Fe/(Fe + Mg) values of olivines, pyroxenes and chondrules are concentrated in the range 1–6 at.% with a few percent in the range 7–30%; porphyritic chondrules are chondritic in composition (except for their low volatile abundances). Thus the components of ALH 85085 probably have similar origins to those of components in other chondrites, and their properties largely reflect nebular, not asteroidal, processes.The bulk composition of ALH 85085 fits none of the nine groups of chondrites: it is richer in Fe (1.4 × CI levels when normalized to Si) and poorer in Na and S (0.1–0.2 × CI) than other chondrites. Low volatile concentrations are due to a low matrix abundance and loss of volatiles during or prior to chondrule formation, not to volatile loss during metamorphism. Chondrule textures imply extensive heating of chondrule melts above the liquidus, consistent with loss of volatiles from small volumes of melt during chondrule formation. The small size of chondrules is partly due to extensive fragmentation by impacts, which may have occurred on the parent asteroid or in the solar nebula. Collisions between chondrule precursor aggregates in the nebula could also be responsible for the small sizes of chondrules.Assuming that ALH 85085 is a representative sample of an asteroid, its properties lend support to models for the origins of the Earth, eucrite parent body and volatile-poor iron meteorites that invoke chondritic planetesimals depleted in volatiles. The existence of ALH 85085 and Kakangari suggests that the nine chondrite groups may provide a remarkably poor sample of the primitive chondritic material from which the asteroids formed. Certain similarities between ALH 85085 and Bencubbin and Weatherford suggest that the latter two primitive meteorites may actually be chondrites with even higher metal abundances (50–60 wt.%) and very large, partly fragmented chondrules. 相似文献

In three polished thin sections of Yamato 791717 (CO3). fifty-five Ca, Al-rich inclusions were found, which include two hibonite-bearing,
eight melilite-rich and forty-five spinel-pyroxene inclusions. Based on the petrography and mineral chemistry of the inclusions,
it is proposed that the melilite-rich inclusions and spinel-pyroxene inclusions condensed in the solar nebula, and the hibonite-bearing
inclusions crystallized from melts. The heavy alteration of the inclusions in Yamato 791717, which probably took place under
a very oxidizing condition in the solar nebular, is also confirmed.

A detailed petrographic study of the impactites found in the El’gygytgyn depression suggested a division of those into the
dacite-rhyolite (dominant) and the andesite-basalt (about 1% of the total impactite volume) groups. The protolith for the
dacite-rhyolite group was the Cretaceous ignimbrite rock association of the Okhotsk-Chukchi volcanic belt (OChVB), from which
the depth of their origin is estimated as 1–1.5 km. The impactites of the andesite-basalt group, which are generally older,
formed from protoliths of apparently metamorphic and magmatic complexes in the OChVB basement occurring at depths of 6.5–8.5
km. The hypothesis that the depths of origin for these groups are different is supported by certain features of clinopyroxene
composition. Geochemical relationships are found to exist between deep and shallow impactites, as shown in the distribution
of Ni, Cr, and Co. The succession of development for the shallow impactite generation forms the following series: impact ignimbrite
→ pumice → cinder → massive glass. The glasses have the most homogeneous overall chemical composition, but these too are characterized
by a high inhomogeneity in the composition of the vitric phases, indicating a rapid and discrete impactite generation that
impeded melt homogenization. The glasses are the final product of impactite generation; they show a dramatic drop in fluid
content and the associated reducing components. 相似文献
