苏皖玄武岩土壤中风尘的识别及风化特征   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
风尘传输与沉降影响生态系统和元素的生物地球化学循环,对其在成壤作用中的识别与贡献进行研究有重要意义。文章选择在非风尘沉降区的苏皖玄武岩台地典型的两个风化剖面(安徽明光梅花村和江苏盱眙宝塔村)和部分表土及水系沉积物样品,系统分析主要矿物、粘土矿物、常量元素、微量元素及Sr、Nd同位素组成。结果显示,玄武岩基岩基本由斜长石和辉石组成,而风化基岩则主要由蒙脱石构成,风化土壤则出现基岩和风化基岩中未出现的石英、伊利石等风尘特征矿物;基岩和风化基岩以高Mg,低Si、K,无Eu异常等特征,风化土壤则以高Si、K,低Mg,负Eu异常等特征;基岩和风化基岩的εNd偏正,86Sr/87Sr值较低,而风化土壤εNd偏负,86Sr/87Sr值较高;各种证据都显示风尘对风化土壤有重要贡献,通过Nd同位素混合模式计算,风尘对土壤的贡献达60%以上。玄武岩风化表现为完全的蒙脱石化,为显著的去Ca、Mg作用,在梅花村剖面,表层土壤出现Ce负异常,而在下部层位出现Ce正异常,研究还发现在风尘的加积作用,土壤的Si、K含量得以上升。受相对较大的玄武岩台地高程差影响,玄武岩风化产物和沉降的风尘易被降水侵蚀,造成风化剖面较薄,促使玄武岩风化处于“供应限制”模式。本次工作为玄武岩的风化机制,风尘在元素地球化学循环中的作用等提供了新的地质证据。  相似文献

确定化学风化剖面的风化组分来源是一个重要而又困难的问题,通过对贵州省平坝白云岩风化剖面中Sr同位素组成的研究,揭示了典型就位白云岩风化剖面的Sr同位素特征,验证87Sr/86Sr与Nb/Sr比率的图解模式对碳酸盐岩风化剖面的适用性,提出了87Sr/86Sr与Nd/Sr比率的图解新模式.研究认为,该模式不仅对白云岩的化学风化具有明显的指示意义,也更好地补充和限定了87Sr/86Sr与Nb/Sr比率的图解所反映出的矿物组分和风化过程.这一研究结果将为风化剖面中Sr同位素的定量研究提供重要的区分指标.  相似文献

锶同位素已经成为全球海平面变化、造山运动、古气候和古环境等全球地质事件研究与对比的有效工具之一。本文以四川盆地东部地区早中三叠世蒸发岩的野外剖面和钻孔岩心为主要研究对象,测试了碳酸盐岩、硫酸盐岩和石盐岩的锶同位素组成,并建立了相应的锶同位素演化曲线。研究结果显示,碳酸盐岩的87Sr/86Sr值平均为0.707 895,硬石膏岩的87Sr/86Sr值平均为0.708 174,石盐岩的87Sr/86Sr值平均为0.708 177,同时碳酸盐岩的87Sr/86Sr值从早三叠世的0.707 413快速增加到中三叠世早期的0.708 515,而后呈现下降趋势。从总体上看,这些87Sr/86Sr值与全球早中三叠世同期的87Sr/86Sr值数据接近,说明四川盆地东部地区早中三叠世钾盐的物质来源大部分为海水,并沉积于海相沉积环境,同时由于火山...  相似文献

新生代气候变化与陆地硅酸盐岩风化和海洋Sr同位素研究   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
新生代全球气候自始新世55Ma以来在逐渐变冷。陆地硅酸盐岩在造山带和高原地区通过加速化学风化,消耗了大气中的CO2温室气体造成了新生代气候变冷。目前关于陆地硅酸盐岩风化与海洋Sr同位素关系的研究,主要存在两种观点:一种认为海水Sr同位素变化可作为全球地表化学风化的替代性标志;另一种观点认为全球并不存在平均地表风化这种说法,海水Sr同位素在地质历史中的演化是主要与某种地质构造事件或岩石类型的风化有关。我国应当不失时机地加快对源于喜玛拉雅山地的恒河-布拉马普特拉河进行研究,以进一步揭示陆地硅酸盐岩风化与海洋Sr同位素变化的关系。  相似文献

河南卢氏县拐峪绿松石采矿遗址位于伊洛盆地西缘,该遗址的发现为研究中原早期绿松石的来源提供了重要的考古学信息。为判定该古矿产出绿松石的流向,尝试利用热电离质谱仪(TIMS)检测了拐峪古矿绿松石样品的Sr、Pb同位素组成,并结合秦岭5个主要绿松石矿的相关同位素数据,尝试寻找其产地特征。分析结果显示,拐峪绿松石87Sr/86Sr值相对较高,整体大于0.719 0,高于其他产地,可视为其产地特征之一;采用208Pb/204Pb-207Pb/208Pb联合示踪可得到较好的结果,在相关图解中拐峪绿松石具有独立的数据聚集区,可作为判断其产地证据之一;采用208Pb/204Pb-87Sr/86Sr和207Pb/208Pb-87Sr/86Sr联合示踪,也得到了较好的判别效果,拐峪绿松石与其他产地界线清...  相似文献

测量了喀斯特地区乌江、沅江两大水系的河流枯水期的主元素、Sr2+离子浓度和Sr同位素比值。这些河流的化学组成代表了流经碳酸盐岩地层的河水的化学组成。这些河流及其支流有高的溶解盐,TZ+变化范围为:2.1~6.3 meq/L,高于全球河流的平均值(TZ+=0.725 meq/L)。河水含有较高的溶质浓度,河水水化学组成以Ca2+和HCO-3为主,其次为Mg2+和SO2-4,Na++K+和Cl-+Si分别只占阳离子和阴离子组成的5%~10%。 这些河流的化学和同位素组成主要受其自流盆地的地质特征控制。流经碳酸盐岩地层的乌江水系河流具有较高的Sr浓度(1.1~9.70 mol/L)和较低的87Sr/86Sr比值(0.7077~0.7110),与流经碎屑岩地层的沅江水系的清水江河流中较高的87Sr/86Sr比值(0.7090~0.7145)及较低的Sr浓度(0.28~1.32 mol/L)形成鲜明的对比。 流域盆地的地理岩性控制了河水的化学组成和同位素组成。对河水的化学计量分析表明河水化学组成受碳酸盐岩溶解控制,而碳酸盐岩主要受碳酸和硫酸作用而溶解。乌江流域受硫酸作用特别明显,表明硫酸主要来源于燃煤或流域盆地硫化物矿物氧化而形成的大气输入。化学元素和同位素比值之间的相互关系表明3个主要来源为:石灰岩、白云岩和硅酸盐岩的风化。同时估计了碳酸盐岩和硅酸盐岩的化学风化速率,结果表明流域盆地的碳酸盐岩风化速率远远高于许多世界大河。岩石风化过程中硫酸的出现或土地的过度使用或土壤植被的退化等都可能是导致流域的碳酸盐岩风化速率如此高的原因。   相似文献

黄土是美国内布拉斯加州地表分布范围最广的沉积物之一,其中末次冰期形成的皮奥瑞亚黄土(Peoria loess,PL) 质量累积速率(Mass Accumulation Rate, MAR) 在比格内尔山(Bignell Hill,BH) 达到世界最高。探究此地区黄土快速沉积 的原因一直是北美中部大平原黄土研究的热点。本文通过对内布拉斯加州中部BH 样品的Nd、Sr 同位素、主微量和稀土元 素的分析,发现内布拉斯加黄土的化学成分相对均一,与上部大陆地壳(UCC) 和中国洛川黄土相比,Fe、Mg 值较低, K、Na 含量相对较高。BH 黄土的化学风化指数(CIA) 值平均为65.7,小于洛川黄土,显示出较弱的化学风化强度。Sr-Nd 同位素结果显示,除了普遍认为的怀特组沉积为黄土的主要源区外,还存在另一个87Sr/86Sr 比值更高, εNd更负的源区,推测 这个源区为北美劳伦冰盖冰川沉积,其对黄土的贡献达30%~45%。BH 黄土剖面的CIA、Na/K 和碳酸盐含量变化表明,在PL 形成时期(约25~18 ka),化学风化较弱,气候干冷,有助于风尘产生与堆积。  相似文献

The new non-traditional stable strontium (Sr) isotope has aroused great attention from academic scholars in terms of the continental weathering and marine Sr cycle. The analytical precision of stable Sr isotope using mass spectrometry is better than 0.03‰. The compiled δ88/ 86Sr values vary from -3.65‰ to 1.68‰ in natural reservoirs. Recent findings indicate that multiple processes can cause stable Sr isotope fractionation in Earth surface, including the incongruent dissolution of primary minerals, the formation and adsorption of secondary minerals, the precipitation of calcium carbonate, and the biological cycling. These processes lead to higher δ88/ 86Sr in the liquid phase and lower δ88/ 86Sr in the solid phase, and thus result in different geochemical behavior of stable Sr isotopes in water and sediment during the weathering processes. The δ88/ 86Sr values of river sediment decrease with the increase of weathering intensity, which has the potential to indicate chemical weathering intensity. Meanwhile, further study on the fractionation mechanisms and constraints of stable Sr isotopes in river water plays an important role in tracing chemical weathering processes within the watershed, which will lead to a better understanding of the global ocean Sr cycle.  相似文献

Temporal variation of dissolved 87Sr/86Sr in the Yangtze River is poorly understood compared to other Tibetan rivers. In this study, dissolved Sr and 87Sr/86Sr were measured from a temporal series of water samples collected biweekly at Datong Hydrological Station over a period of one year. Our results show that Sr concentration in the Yangtze River ranges from 1.74 to 2.92 μmol/L with 87Sr/86Sr of 0.710125 to 0.710965. The Sr concentration and 87Sr/86Sr shows a distinct seasonal variation, with a general increase in 87Sr/86Sr ratios from summer to winter and some fluctuations during July and December, then followed by a gradually decrease till the next rainy season. The seasonal variation results from the variation of contributions from different sub-basin due to the spatially and seasonally variable rainfall across the basin. During the flood season, more contribution from upper reach (low 87Sr/86Sr values) due to the strong rainfall decreases the 87Sr/86Sr ratio at lower reach. While the severe drought which happened in the middle-lower reaches (high 87Sr/86Sr values) from January to May explains the decrease in the later part of the data by the decrease of the contribution from middle-lower reaches. The discharge weighted annual 87Sr/86Sr and annual Sr flux of the Yangtze River based on the time series data are 0.710628 and 1.9×109 mol/a, respectively. It was also indicated that dissolved 87Sr/86Sr in the Yangtze River is well correlated to the extreme climate events and might contribute to our explanation for reconstructing past climatic changes by using 87Sr/86Sr ratios of the sedimentary record in the delta .  相似文献

Mixed marine, brackish-water and terrestrial vertebrate skeletal apatite is found in the late Paleocene-early Eocene Tuscahoma and Bashi Formations of Mississippi. The co-Occurrence in these near-coastal marine deposits of skeletal apatite with different provenances offers a unique opportunity for unraveling the effects of diagenesis on apatite 87Sr/86Sr composition, with bearings on the use of this isotope pair as paleosalinity indicator. The results show that the Sr isotopes of all originally poorly ordered phases of skeletal apatite have extensively re-equilibrated with pore water with significantly lower 87Sr/86Sr ratios than late Paleocene-early Eocene seawater. For example, marine shark and ray teeth from the Bashi Formation all have clearly nonmarine 87Sr/86Sr ratios, 0.7073-0.7075, compared with a coeval seawater ratio in the range 0.7077-0.7078. However, separated shark tooth enamel, with a high original crystallinity, appears to have retained all or most of its in vivo Sr isotopic signature until the present. Here we also show that 87Sr/86Sr results on recent vertebrate skeletal material from different environments are in good agreement with expected values for respective habitat.

Earlier analyses of calcite material from the Bashi Formation indicated the existence of a shift in seawater 87Sr/86Sr to a lower value at the Paleocene-Eocene boundary. The strong influence of pore water with low, nonmarine 87Sr/86Sr on the apatite in the Bashi Formation suggests that the proposed isotopic shift may be an artifact related to diagenetic processes.  相似文献

This paper determines the weathering and atmospheric contributions of Ca in surface water from a small spruce forested silicate catchment (N–E France) receiving acid atmospheric inputs. The bedrock is a granite with K-feldspar and albite as dominant phases. The calcium content in plagioclase is low and the Ca/Na ratio in surface water is high, reflecting other sources of calcium from those expected from the weathering of major mineral phases. The biotite content is low. Only traces of apatite were detected while no calcite was found in spite of a major hydrothermal event having affected the granite. The strontium isotopic ratio 87Sr/86Sr and Sr content was used as a tracer of weathering and was determined in minerals and bulk bedrock, open field precipitation, throughfall, soil solution, spring and stream water. The Sr isotopic ratio of the reacting weathering end-member was predicted by simulating the alteration of the granite minerals by incorporating strontium into the water–rock interaction kinetic code KINDIS. In the early stages of water–rock interaction, K-feldspar and biotite strongly influence the isotopic composition of the weathering solution whereas, the Na-rich plagioclase appears to be the main long-term reactive weathering end-member. Approximately 50% of dissolved Sr in streamwater are atmospherically derived. The 87Sr/86Sr ratios of exchangeable Sr in the fine fraction at 1-m depth from a soil profile indicate that the amount of exchangeable Sr seems essentially controlled by atmospheric inputs. The exception is the deep saprolite where weathering processes could supply the Sr (and Ca). Na-Plagioclase weathering obviously control the chemistry and the isotopic composition of surface waters. The weathering of trace mineral plays a secondary role, the exception is for apatite when plagioclase is absent. Our hydrochemical, mineralogical and isotopic investigations show that a major part of the strong Ca losses detected in catchment hydrochemical budgets that result from the neutralization of acid precipitation has an atmospheric origin. Consequently, in the long term, in such areas, the availability of such an exchangeable base cation might be strongly limited and surface waters consequently acidified.  相似文献

Sr isotope and Ca/Mg/Sr chemical compositions of freshwater ostracode tests separated from a sediment core represent the last 16 ka of sedimentation in Lake Constance, Central Europe. The chemical evolution of the paleowater's dissolved load of Lake Constance was estimated by correcting the ostracode data for Ca/Mg/Sr fractionation due to biogenic calcification. Since the Late Pleistocene deglaciation, the Ca/Sr molar ratios of paleowaters increased systematically from about 100 (a near marine signature) to about 200. Ca/Mg molar ratios varied in the range of 1–25. The 87Sr/86Sr ratios indicate Late Pleistocene paleowater compositions of 0.7086–0.7091, significantly more radiogenic than present day waters (0.7085). Sr isotopes and Ca/Mg/Sr chemical data together show that weathering of Mesozoic evaporites consistently dominated the dissolved Sr load (80–90%). Carbonate and silicate weathering were less important (1–10%). Trends of Sr dissolved loads were therefore not related to Mg which was mainly mobilized by carbonate weathering. Biotite weathering was an important source of radiogenic Sr in the paleowaters. The short-term release (duration about 600–800 years) of radiogenic Sr during glacier retreat started 15.2 ka ago and was due to enhanced biotite weathering at the glacier base. Long-term release of radiogenic Sr was due to biotite weathering in glacial soils and silicate rocks, and has gradually declined since the Late Pleistocene/Holocene transition.  相似文献

Three types of chemically and isotopically distinct pore fluids from the southern San Joaquin basin previously recognized by J.B. Fisher and J.R. Boles also have distinctive 87Sr/86Sr ratios and Sr concentrations. Meteoric fluids have stable isotopic compositions which lie on or near the meteoric water line and low chlorinities. Sr concentrations are between 0.01 and 2.6 mg l−1, and 87Sr/86Sr ratios range from 0.7061 to 0.7078. Diagenetically modified connate marine fluids have δD-and δ18O-values more positive than −35‰ and 0‰, respectively, and have chlorinities generally comparable to seawater. Sr concentration are much higher than the meteoric group (16–198 mg l−1), although the 87Sr/86Sr ratios (0.7070–0.7081) are not distinctive. Mixed meteoric-modified connate fluids have δD, δ18O and chlorinity intermediate between the meteoric and modified connate groups. Sr concentrations are also intermediate, between 16 and 22 mg l−1, but 87Sr/86Sr ratios (0.7080–0.7087) are generally more radiogenic than either the meteoric or modified connate groups.

All of the fluids have 87Sr/86Sr ratios comparable to or lower than Tertiary seawater. Alteration of detrital plagioclase is the probable origin of the low isotopic ratios. Mass-balance calculations based on the Sr data suggest that essentially no transport of Sr occurred during diagenesis of sandstones containing modified connate pore fluids, while large amounts of Sr have been transported out of meteoric reservoirs by fluid flow. The chemically anomalous mixed meteoric-modified connate fluids contain the most radiogenic strontium in the basin. These fluids are spatially associated with major faults, and may represent clay mineral dehydration waters which have been transported upward from greater depth.

These results suggest that the three types of fluids identified by Fisher and Boles represent three distinct mass transport regimes: a largely stagnant deep-basin system containing modified connate pore fluids; an actively recharging meteoric system along the basin flanks; and a third system restricted to the southern basin which may be characterized by largescale cross-formational fluid flow, rather than dilution by meteoric waters.  相似文献

The overwhelming part of the continental crust in the high-grade part of the Damara orogen of Namibia consists of S-type granites, metasedimentary rocks and migmatites. At Oetmoed (central Damara orogen) two different S-type granites occur. Their negative εNd values (− 3.3 to − 5.9), moderately high initial 87Sr/86Sr ratios (0.714–0.731), moderately high 206Pb/204Pb (18.21–18.70) and 208Pb/204Pb (37.74–37.89) isotope ratios suggest that they originated by melting of mainly mid-Proterozoic metasedimentary material. Metasedimentary country rocks have initial εNd of − 4.2 to − 5.6, initial 87Sr/86Sr of 0.718–0.725, 206Pb/204Pb ratios of 18.32–18.69 and 208Pb/204Pb ratios of 37.91–38.45 compatible with their variation in Rb/Sr, U/Pb and Th/Pb ratios. Some migmatites and residual metasedimentary xenoliths tend to have more variable εNd values (initial εNd: − 4.2 to − 7.1), initial Sr isotope ratios (87Sr/86Sr: 0.708–0.735) and less radiogenic 206Pb/204Pb (18.22–18.53) and 208Pb/204Pb (37.78–38.10) isotope compositions than the metasedimentary rocks. On a Rb–Sr isochron plot the metasedimentary rocks and various migmatites plot on a straight line that corresponds to an age of c. 550 Ma which is interpreted to indicate major fractionation of the Rb–Sr system at that time. However, initial 87Sr/86Sr ratios of the melanosomes of the stromatic migmatites (calculated for their U–Pb monazite and Sm–Nd garnet ages of c. 510 Ma) are more radiogenic (87Sr/86Sr: 0.725) than those obtained on their corresponding leucosomes (87Sr/86Sr: 0.718) implying disequilibrium conditions during migmatization that have not lead to complete homogenization of the Rb–Sr system. However, the leucosomes have similar Nd isotope characteristics than the inferred residues (melanosomes) indicating the robustness of the Sm–Nd isotope system during high-grade metamorphism and melting. On a Rb–Sr isochron plot residual metasedimentary xenoliths show residual slopes of c. 66 Ma (calculated for an U–Pb monazite age of 470 Ma) again indicating major fractionation of Rb/Sr at c. 540 Ma. However, at 540 Ma, these xenoliths have unradiogenic Sr isotope compositions of c. 0.7052, indicating depleted metasedimentary sources at depth. Based on the distinct Pb isotope composition of the metasedimentary rocks and S-type granites, metasedimentary rocks similar to the country rocks are unlikely sources for the S-type granites. Moreover, a combination of Sr, Nd, Pb and O isotopes favours a three-component mixing model (metasedimentary rocks, altered volcanogenic material, meta-igneous crust) that may explain the isotopic variabilty of the granites. The mid-crustal origin of the different types of granite emphasises the importance of recycling and reprocessing of pre-existing differentiated material and precludes a direct mantle contribution during the petrogenesis of the orogenic granites in the central Damara orogen of Namibia.  相似文献

Nephrite jade occurs in three terranes (Dun Mountain–Maitai, Caples and Torlesse) in New Zealand, where it is associated with ultramafic and ophiolitic rocks in narrow metasomatic reaction zones at the margins of serpentinite (having harzburgite/gabbro/dolerite precursors) with silicic metasediments and metavolcanics. True nephrite fabrics are developed only locally where marginal shearing is intense, and late in the metamorphic history. 87Sr/86Sr values of these nephrites do not display the primitive values of their gabbro/dolerite precursor component i.e. 0.7030–0.7035, as expected if formed during serpentinisation. Rather, the nephrites have more evolved 87Sr/86Sr values inherited from the metasediment component at a later stage, and which fall within particular terrane groups: Dun Mountain–Maitai 0.7045–0.7060, Caples 0.7058–0.7075 and Torlesse 0.7085–0.7110. Rb–Sr ages and initial 87Sr/86Sr ratios of the metasediment component from in situ nephrite localities, when compared with their counterparts throughout the host terrane, show that nephrite Sr isotopic compositions are characteristic of the host terrane.  相似文献

We compare the petrogenetic and chemical signatures of two alkali silicate suites from the Cretaceous Damaraland igneous province (Namibia), one with and one without associated carbonatite, in order to explore their differences in terms of magma source and evolution. The Etaneno complex occurs in close spatial proximity to the Kalkfeld bimodal carbonatite–alkali silicate complex, and is dominated by nepheline (ne)-monzosyenites and ne-bearing alkali feldspar syenites. The Etaneno samples have isotopic compositions of 87Sr/86Sr(i)=0.70462–0.70508 and Nd=−0.5 to −1.5, with the highest 87Sr/86Sr(i) and lowest Nd values observed in evolved samples. The magma differentiated via olivine, feldspar, clinopyroxene, and nepheline (ne) fractionation in a F-rich system, which fractionated Zr from Hf, and Y from Ho. Partly glassy, recrystallized inclusions in some samples are less evolved than their host rocks and contain a cumulate component (nepheline, plagioclase). The Kalkfeld ne-foidites (ijolites) and ne-syenites have 87Sr/86Sr(i)=0.70285–0.70592 and Nd=0.5 to 1.1. The isotope ratios show no consistent variation with rock composition, and they are in the same range as the associated carbonatites. The Kalkfeld silicate magma fractionated nepheline and alkali-feldspar in a CO2-dominated, F- and Ca-poor system. As a result, the rocks display some major and trace element trends distinctly different from those of the Etaneno samples.

We suggest that the Etaneno and the Kalkfeld magmas represent different melt fractions of a heterogeneous mantle source, resulting in different compositions especially with respect to CO2 contents of the primitive, parental magmas. In this scenario, the carbonated alkali silicate Kalkfeld parental melt contained a critical CO2 concentration and underwent liquid separation of carbonate and silicate melt fractions at crustal depths. The resulting silicate melt fraction experienced a very different mode of differentiation than the carbonate-poor Etaneno parental magma. Thus, the Kalkfeld rocks are depleted in Ca and other divalent cations, as well as F, rare-earth elements (REE), Ba, and P relative to the Etaneno syenites. We interpret these differences to reflect the partitioning of these elements into the carbonate melt fraction during immiscible separation.  相似文献
