近年来,在相山铀矿田的西部牛头山地区深部发现了铅锌矿化体,其成因机制不明.为探讨牛头山铅锌矿化体物质来源,开展了硫化物原位硫同位素分析研究.根据硫化物矿物之间的充填和包裹关系判断,铅锌矿化体金属硫化物形成的先后顺序是:黄铁矿形成最早,方铅矿和闪锌矿次之,细脉状黄铜矿形成最晚.利用LA-MC-ICP-MS技术对矿化体中几种金属硫化物分别进行了系统的原位硫同位素分析.结果显示:黄铁矿、闪锌矿、方铅矿、细脉状黄铜矿的δ34S值介于-4.8‰~+5.4‰之间,各硫化物矿物之间硫同位素未达到完全平衡分馏,利用黄铁矿δ34S值得到的矿化流体δ34SΣS值(总硫同位素组成)近似为+3.7‰,与共生矿物对(闪锌矿-方铅矿)图解法得到的闪锌矿和方铅矿沉淀时矿化流体的δ34SΣS值(+3.2‰)相近,表明形成牛头山铅锌矿化体的矿化流体δ34SΣS值大约为+3.7‰,为岩浆硫.结合前人的岩浆岩年龄数据,我们判断该铅锌矿化体金属硫化物的硫可能主要来自次火山岩相花岗斑岩岩浆热液.同一薄片中闪锌矿δ34S值高于共生的方铅矿,表明两者硫同位素基本平衡,利用共生矿物对(闪锌矿-方铅矿)硫同位素温度计计算得出平衡温度为197~476℃,与前人通过脉石矿物流体包裹体得到的铅锌矿化流体温度基本一致.相山火山盆地与相邻的北武夷黄岗山、梨子坑等产铅锌矿的火山盆地具有相似的成矿条件及成矿物质来源,使相山火山盆地具有良好的铅锌多金属找矿前景.   相似文献

Highly concentrated NaCl brines are important geothermal fluids; chloride complexation of metals in such brines increases the solubility of minerals and plays a fundamental role in the genesis of hydrothermal ore deposits. There is experimental evidence that the molecular nature of the NaCl–water system changes over the pressure–temperature range of the Earth's crust. A transition of concentrated NaCl–H2O brines to a "hydrous molten salt" at high P and T has been argued to stabilize an aqueous fluid phase in the deep crust.  相似文献

Major oil reserves in rift basins in eastern China are correlated with high quality source rocks. The high quality source rocks and their hydrocarbon generation are often related to volcanic activity in the basins. Three kinds of volcanic rocks in source rocks have been defined in the Songliao, Bohaiwan and North Jiangsu basins. Some of the volcanic rocks were formed in lacustrine environments during the deposition of source rocks. It is remarkable that a part of volcanic-derived materials serves as a source of nutrients for lacustrine organisms which resulted in the formation of the organic matter in source rocks with high organic C contents. Besides hydrothermal alteration, the volcanic minerals contributed catalysis and H2 to thermal alteration of organic matter into hydrocarbons during burial and diagenesis of source rocks and volcanics. A series of thermal laboratory simulations were performed with various combinations of immature source rocks and natural mineral assemblages. Results indicate that a significant volume of H2 was produced from the source rock mixed with olivine and zeolite; moreover, this combination provided a 3-fold increase in hydrocarbons. It is proposed that catalysis and hydrogenation by the volcanic minerals promote hydrocarbon generation, although organic matter type is significantly variable. Hydrocarbons are generated at a lower degree of thermal stress when the reaction mixture contains volcanic minerals, and have a heavier C isotopic composition, compared to the control set of experiments.  相似文献

New data on the geochemistry and isotopic composition of chloride brines of the Siberian Platform are presented. The distribution of stable isotopes (2H, 18O, and 37Cl) in brines of the Tunguska, Angara-Lena, western part of the Yakutian and Olenek artesian basins and 87Sr/86Sr in brines of the western part of the Olenek artesian basin was studied in the context of the problem of genesis of highly mineralized groundwaters. Results of the study and comparative analysis of the geochemical and isotopic peculiarities of the Siberian Platform brines conform to the theory of brine formation through the interaction of connate waters with enclosing rocks.  相似文献

The Emet borate deposits were formed in two separate basins, possibly part of an interconnected lacustrine playa lake, in areas of volcanic activity, fed partly by thermal springs and partly by surface streams. The borates are interlayered with tuff, clay and marl. Limestone occurs above and below the borate lenses. Sediments in both basins are similar but borate minerals show different mineralogical and geochemical features in the two basins.The Emet borate deposits are the only deposits known to contain any of the minerals veatchite-A, tunellite, teruggite and cahnite. Principal minerals are colemanite, with minor ulexite, hydroboracite and meyerhofferite.Thermal springs associated with local volcanic activity are thought to be the source of the borates. The initial brines from which the borates crystallized are deduced to have been high in sulphite and sulphate, low in chloride, and hence it is assumed that the initial brines were fed at all times by abundant calcium and boron with minor amounts of arsenic, strontium and sulphur. Realgar, celestite and native sulphur are almost ubiquitous in borates and sediments, and appear to have formed at all stages during deposition and diagenesis.The early colemanite, meyerhofferite, ulexite and teruggite nodules were probably formed directly from brines penecontemporaneously within the unconsolidated sediments below the sediment/water interface, and continued to grow as the sediments were compacted. Later generations of colemanite occur in vugs, veins and as fibrous margins to colemanite nodules. Tunellite appears to have formed during diagenesis with enrichment of Sr in some places. Diagenetic alterations include the partial replacement of colemanite by veatchite-A, cahnite, hydroboracite and calcite.  相似文献

Origin of Salts and Brine Evolution of Bolivian and Chilean Salars   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Central Andes in Bolivia and northern Chile contain numerous internal drainage basins occupied by saline lakes and salt crusts (salars). Salts in inflow waters stem from two origins: alteration of volcanic rocks, which produces dilute waters, and brine recycling, which leads to brackish waters. Chilean alteration waters are three times more concentrated in average than Bolivian waters, which is related to a higher sulfur content in Chilean volcanoes. Brackish inflows stem from brines which leak out from present salars and mix with dilute groundwater. Most of the incoming salts are recycled salts. The cycling process is likely to have begun when ancient salars were buried by volcanic eruptions. Three major brine groups are found in Andean salars: alkaline, sulfate-rich, and calcium-rich brines. Evaporation modeling of inflows shows good agreement between predicted and observed brines in Chile. Alkaline salars are completely lacking in Chile, which is accounted for by higher sulfate and lower alkalinity of inflow waters, in turn related to the suspected higher sulfur content in Chilean volcanic rocks. Six Bolivian salars are alkaline, a lower number than that predicted by evaporative modeling. Deposition on the drainage basin of eolian sulfur eroded from native deposits shifts the initial alkaline evolution to sulfate brines. The occurrence of calcium-rich brines in Andean salars is not compatible with volcanic drainage basins, which can only produce alkaline or sulfate-rich weathering waters. The discrepancy is likely due to recycled calcic brines from ancient salars in sedimentary basins, now buried below volcanic formations. Calcic salars are not in equilibrium with their volcanic environment and may slowly change with time to sulfate-rich salars.  相似文献

A comparative analysis of the chemical composition of underground brines in sections of the Tunguska and Olenek artesian basins is accomplished. The paper examines the equilibrium degree of brines with host rock minerals: carbonate (dolomite, calcite, magnesite, strontianite), sulfate (gypsum and celestine), chloride (halite, sylvite) and some aluminosilicates (anorthite, albite, illite, montmorillonites, kaolinite, muscovite, and others). Origin of brines is discussed based on results of the calculation of genetic coefficients. The paper presents a schematic generalization of data on the chemical composition, mineral concentration, genesis, and abundance of brines in the studied subjects.  相似文献

中国还原性斑岩矿床研究进展及判别标志   总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0

世界上大多数斑岩矿床的成矿流体为氧化流体(CO_2 CH_4)。然而,Rowins(2000)提出一些斑岩Cu-Au矿床的成矿流体为富含CH_4的还原流体,矿床缺乏磁铁矿、赤铁矿和硬石膏等表征高氧逸度的矿物,而发育大量的磁黄铁矿,矿床规模小,矿床形成与含钛铁矿的还原性的Ⅰ型花岗岩类有关,并将其称之为还原性斑岩Cu-Au矿床。我国学者研究发现,中国不但发育还原性斑岩铜矿床,还发育还原性斑岩-矽卡岩铜矿床和还原性斑岩钼矿床,我们建议将这三种矿床统称为还原性斑岩矿床。本文基于课题组近十年来的研究工作,并结合前人的研究成果,综合分析了中国发育的大中型还原性斑岩矿床的典型实例,在此基础上,重点阐明中国大型还原性斑岩矿床的特点、流体中CH_4来源及其有关的成矿作用、容矿围岩特点、成矿岩浆氧化还原状态及其成因、矿床形成的构造背景等。与Rowins(2000)提出的还原性斑岩铜矿床规模小的特点不同,中国发育的一些还原性斑岩矿床规模大;我们研究还识别出该类矿床发育独特的热液矿物和矿石矿物,比如,还原性斑岩铜矿发育热液钛铁矿,矿石矿物以黄铜矿为主,罕见斑铜矿、辉铜矿等矿物;还原性斑岩钼矿床出现热液钛铁矿,矿石矿物以辉钼矿为主,罕见黑钨矿和锡石等矿物;还原性斑岩-矽卡岩铜矿床的矽卡岩期发育钙铝榴石、钙铁辉石等还原性矽卡岩矿物和大量的磁黄铁矿,热液期以发育黄铜矿而非斑铜矿和辉铜矿等矿石矿物为特征。因此,还原性斑岩矿床除了Rowins(2000)提出的发育富CH_4还原流体和磁黄铁矿等识别标志之外,还可辅以独特的脉石矿物(如钛铁矿、钙铝榴石、钙铁辉石等)和简单的矿石矿物(如黄铜矿、辉钼矿等)这两个标志进行识别。中国还原性斑岩矿床含矿岩体的围岩中普遍发育还原性岩石(如含碳质沉积岩或火山沉积岩、含亚铁的火山岩或火山沉积岩等);对于成矿流体中CH_4、C_2H_6等还原性气体的来源,多数学者认为CH_4、C_2H_6等还原性气体主要源于还原性围岩,部分源于岩浆。关于还原性斑岩矿床的成矿岩体是否为含钛铁矿的、还原性的花岗岩类,目前研究较少且存在争议,多数学者认为成矿原始岩浆为氧化性岩浆,但其氧逸度偏低,少数学者认为成矿岩浆始终为还原岩浆。还原性斑岩矿床与经典的斑岩矿床的成矿构造背景类似,二者没有明显区别。还原性斑岩矿床显示的还原性热液蚀变和成矿特点均与成矿流体富含CH_4还原气体密切相关,因此,富含CH_4还原流体是还原性斑岩矿床形成的关键。  相似文献

Artesian basins contain the largest mineral water resources of the world. There are several types of mineral therapeutic water: sulfate, chloride, radon-rich, iron-rich waters, etc. Artesian basins occupy very large areas in Russia. However, genesis of water and brines is still not very clear. This is one of the most important hydrogeological problems that is being attempted to solve for many years. Most of the Russian hydrogeologists traditionally consider that these waters are of sedimentary origin. However, higher concentrations of bromine, iodine, iron, radon and other balneologically active components can be of different origin, for example, of infiltration or juvenile water. As an example, two areas will be considered – West-Siberian basin and East-European artesian area.West-Siberian artesian basin has very distinct latitudinal and vertical zonation. Latitudinal zonation is caused by climate changes from north to south. As for the vertical zonation, mineralization and chemical composition change in the vertical cross-section and from the periphery to the center within the same aquifer. The main mineral water resources of West-Siberian artesian basin are concentrated in Mesozoic rocks. Brackish waters and low-saturated brines without specific components are used for medical purposes. The most well-known spa is Karachi, which exploits chloride-hydrocarbonate brackish water. Sodium chloride bromine and iodine-bromine waters are used at other health resorts. It is possible to organize extraction of iodine from brines of Tcherkashinsko-Tobolskoe occurrence in Tumen region.East-European artesian area occupies most of the Russian Platform. The most widespread types of mineral water within the Russian Platform are sodium-chloride and magnesium-sulfate waters and brines. Such well-known spas, like Moscow mineral waters, Krainka, Staraya Russa and many others, belong to this type. Resources of these waters are definitely connected with sedimentogenic processes. The upper hydrodynamic zone contains iron-rich, hydrogen sulfide, and sometimes radon-rich water. Their formation is caused by the interaction between waters of infiltration and sedimentary genesis, or between infiltration waters and host rocks. One of the examples is Polustrovo iron-rich water. There are industrially valuable waters containing bromine and iodine.The resources of therapeutic water of sedimentary basins allow to increase balneological potential of spas in Russia.  相似文献

Interstitial brines from the Temblor and the McAdams sandstones at Kettleman are essentially NaCaCl solutions with subsidiary SO4 and the total salinities are roughly 30,000 and 10,000 ppm, respectively. Activities of H+ and all other aqueous species have been calculated for 100°C (the in situ temperatures of the brines) from chemical analyses of the brines and 100-degree dissociation constants alone. The brine alkalinities measured at surface temperature appear to be too low when comparing them against alkalinities calculated from the measured pHs of the brines. Consequently, alkalinities calculated for 25°C were substituted for the measured ones in the calculation of the distribution of aqueous species at 100°C.Although the brines are nearly neutral (pH 6·3–d7·9) at surface temperature, their pHs calculated for 100°C range from 8·1 to 8·7 (± 0·35). These pHs and the 100-degree activities of the other aqueous species permit graphic representation of the brines on activity diagrams. Most brines fall at or near the boundaries between the stability fields of quartz, albite, microcline, mica, montmorillonite and anhydrite. Because these minerals are present as authigenic phases in the sandstones, the calculations suggest that the minerals are in stable equilibrium with the brines. By contrast, the calculations suggest that the brines are supersaturated by about three orders of magnitude with respect to calcite, also present in the sandstones. One possible explanation for this is kinetic inhibition of calcite crystallization by Mg2+ and SO42? ions in the brines. Phosphatic pellets, glauconite and probably dolomite, pyrite and some kaolinite are early authigenic minerals preserved in the sandstones and they are not now in equilibrium with the brines, which are supersaturated with respect to dolomite and pyrite. The chemical relationship between the brines and the diagenetic minerals laumontite and sphene, also present in the Temblor Formation, cannot be assessed reliably until the thermodynamic properties of laumontite and of aqueous titanium complexes are well known.  相似文献

The Jinman copper deposit,which is situated on the northern margin of the Lanping-Simao back-arc basin,western Yunnan Province,is a silver-bearing,high-grade vein-type copper deposit.Comprehensive element geochemical studies of the host rocks and hydrothermal minerals revealed the regularities in the distribution,mobilization and transport of elements from the host rocks to hydrothermal minerals.In conjunction with the fluid inclusion and isotope data,it is suggested that the ore-forming fluid was derived mainly from a deep source characterized by CO2 enrichment and reduction in nature.It is also suggested that the oreforming materials come largely from a deep source.although the contribution of the country rocks should not be ruled out.It is also found that some hydrothermal minerals are possessed of MREE-enrichment patterns.It is deduced that the REEs in the deep-source ore fluid were transported in the form of CO3^2- complexes and were deposited in a continental basin(or a hot-spring basin).  相似文献

Hydrothermal mineralization at seafloor spreading centers   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
Peter A. Rona 《Earth》1984,20(1):1-104
The recent recognition that metallic mineral deposits are concentrated by hydrothermal processes at seafloor spreading centers constitutes a scientific breakthrough that opens active sites at seafloor spreading centers as natural laboratories to investigate ore-forming processes of such economically useful deposits as massive sulfides in volcanogenic rocks on land, and that enhances the metallic mineral potential of oceanic crust covering two-thirds of the Earth both beneath ocean basins and exposed on land in ophiolite belts. This paper reviews our knowledge of processes of hydrothermal mineralization and the occurrence and distribution of hydrothermal mineral deposits at the global oceanic ridge-rift system.Sub-seafloor hydrothermal convection involving circulation of seawater through fractured rocks of oceanic crust driven by heat supplied by generation of new lithosphere is nearly ubiquitous at seafloor spreading centers. However, ore-forming hydrothermal systems are extremely localized where conditions of anomalously high thermal gradients and permeability increase hydrothermal activity from the ubiquitous low-intensity background level (? 200°C) to high-intensity characterized by high temperatures ( > 200–c.400°C), and a rate and volume of flow sufficient to sustain chemical reactions that produce acid, reducing, metal-rich primary hydrothermal solutions. A series of mineral phases with sulfides and oxides as high- and low-temperature end members, respectively, are precipitated along the upwelling limb and in the discharge zone of single-phase systems as a function of increasing admixture of normal seawater.The occurrence of hydrothermal mineral deposits is considered in terms of spatial and temporal frames of reference. Spatial frames of reference comprise structural features along-axis (linear sections that are the loci of seafloor spreading alternating with transform faults) and perpendicular to axis (axial zone of volcanic extrusion and marginal zones of active extension) common to all spreading centers, regional tectonic setting determined by stage (early, advanced), and rate (slow, intermediate-to-fast) of opening of an ocean basin about a spreading center, and local tectonic sub-setting that incorporates anomalous structural and thermal conditions conducive to mineral concentration (thermal gradient, permeability, system geometry, leaky versus tight hydrothermal systems). Temporal frames of reference comprise the relation between mineral concentration and timing of regional plutonic, volcanic and tectonic cycles and of episodic local physical and chemical events (transient stress, fluctuating heat transfer, intrusion-extrusion, fracturing, sealing, etc.). Types of hydrothermal deposits are not uniquely associated with specific tectonic settings and subsettings. Similar types of hydrothermal deposits may occur in different tectonic settings as a consequence of convergence of physical and chemical processes of concentration.Local tectonic sub-settings with conditions conducive to hydrothermal mineralization at slow-spreading centers (half rate ≤ 2cm y?1; length c. 28,000 km), characterized by an estimated average convective heat transfer of 15.1·108 cal. cm?2, deep-level ( > 3 km), relative narrow (< 5 km wide at base) magma chambers, and high topographic relief (1–5 km) are: (1) basins along linear sections of the axial zone of volcanic extrusion near transform faults at an early stage of opening, represented by a large stratiform sulfide deposit (estimated 32.5·106 metric tons) of the Atlantis II Deep of the Red Sea; (2) the wall along linear sections of the rift valley in the marginal zone of active extension at an advanced stage of opening, represented by encrustations and layered deposits of manganese and iron oxides, hydroxides and silicates inferred to be underlain by stockwork sulfides at the TAG Hydrothermal Field at latitude 26°C on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge; (3) transform faults, especially those with large ridge-ridge offset ( > 30 km), at an advanced stage of opening, represented by stockwork sulfides exposed in the walls of equatorial fracture zones of the Atlantic Ocean and Indian Ocean; (4) the axial zone of volcanic extrusion at an advanced stage of opening.Local tectonic sub-settings with conditions conducive to hydrothermal mineralization at intermediate- to fast-spreading centers (half rate > 2cm y?1; length c. 22,000 km) characterized by an estimated average convective heat transfer of 11.5·108 cal. cm?2, relatively wide (up to 20 km at base), shallow-level (c. 1–3 km) magma chambers, and low topographic relief (< 1 km), are: (1) basins along linear sections of the axial zone of volcanic extrusion at an early stage of opening, represented by massive sulfide deposits of the Guaymas Basin of the Gulf of California; (2) the axial zone of volcanic extrusion at an advanced stage of opening, represented by individually small (c. 1·103 metric tons), massive sulfide mounds surmounted by chimneys of the East Pacific Rise at latitude 21°N; (3) the marginal zone of active extension at an advanced stage of opening represented by a large, massive sulfide deposit (preliminary tentative estimate c.10·106 metric tons) at a double-rifted section of the Galapagos Spreading Center; (4) transform faults, especially those with large ridge-ridge offset ( > 50 km) represented by manganese encrustations in a transform fault at the Galapagos Spreading Center; (5) volcanic seamounts related to persistent hot spots at spreading centers, represented by oxide and sulfide deposits on seamounts off the axis of the East Pacific Rise; (6) portions of spreading centers with anomalous configurations such as multiple, bent or extended rifts, represented by massive sulfide deposits at a double-rifted section of the Galapagos Spreading Center, suggesting the operation of a thermal-structural feedback mechanism indicative of the presence of hydrothermal mineralization; (7) discrete spreading centers in back-arc basins represented by hydrothermal deposits at sites in marginal seas of the western Pacific.Ore-forming processes appear to be least efficient in the axial zone of volcanic extrusion of oceanic ridges at an advanced stage of opening irrespective of spreading rate, where tight hydrothermal systems dissipate a major portion of contained metals by precipitation and dispersion in particulate form from “black smokers” that discharge into the water column. Ore-forming processes appear to be most efficient at sites in basins at linear sections of the axial zone of volcanic extrusion near transform faults during an early stage of opening, and at marginal zones of active extension along linear sections of a spreading center during an advanced stage of opening, irrespective of spreading rate, where both tight and leaky hydrothermal systems may conserve their contained metals to concentrate large sulfide deposits. Resemblances in mineralization between stockwork sulfides at seafloor spreading centers and porphyry copper-type deposits in volcanogenic rocks on land suggest the possibility for the occurrence of large tonnage, low-grade porphyry copper-like deposits concentrated by leaky hydrothermal systems at spreading centers. Systematic application of composite exploration procedures is leading to the discovery of numerous additional deposits. It is inferred from the limited data base available that the occurrence of hydrothermal mineral deposits is more frequent at intermediate-to-fast-than at slow-spreading centers, but the potential for the accumulation of large hydrothermal mineral deposits is greater at slow-spreading centers.Current knowledge of the distribution of hydrothermal mineral deposits at seafloor spreading centers is limited to about 55 sites at this early stage of exploration. Estimates of the distribution of either fields of hydrothermal mineral deposits or high-intensity ore-forming hydrothermal systems at seafloor spreading centers, deduced from various considerations, range from one such occurrence between 15 and 265 km along slow-spreading centers, and 1 and 100 km along intermediate- to fast-spreading centers. However, the distribution of sizable deposits will remain sporadic owing to the special structural and thermal conditions necessary to sustain and to retain high-intensity ore-forming hydrothermal systems.  相似文献

A previous study briefly described the occurrence of a new type of Nb(Ta)-Zr(Hf)-REY-Ga (REY: rare earth elements and yttrium) polymetallic mineralization in eastern Yunnan, southwest China. In this paper, the mineralogical and geochemical features have been further advanced through a study of two regionally extensive and relatively flat-lying mineralized layers from No. XW drill core. The layers are clay-altered volcanic ash and tuffaceous clay, and are dominated by clay minerals (mixed layer illite/smectite, kaolinite, berthierine, and chamosite); with lesser amounts of quartz and variable amounts of anatase, siderite and calcite; along with trace pyrite, barite, zircon, ilmenite, galena, chalcopyrite, and REE-bearing minerals. The mineralized samples have higher Al2O3/TiO2 values (13.7–41.4) and abundant rare metal elements (Nb, Ta, Zr, Hf, REE, Ga, Th, and U) whereas less mineralized samples are rich in V, Cr, Co, and Ni and have lower Al2O3/TiO2 values (2.32–7.67). The mineralized samples also have strong negative δEu in chondrite-normalized REE patterns. Two processes are most likely responsible for the geochemical and mineralogical anomalies of the mineralized samples: airborne volcanic ash and multi-stage injection of low-temperature hydrothermal fluids. Based on paragenetic analysis, this polymetallic mineralization is derived from the interaction between alkaline volcanic ashes and subsequent percolation of low-temperature fluids. The intense and extensive alkaline volcanism of the early Late Permian inferred from this study possibly originated from the coeval Emeishan large igneous province (ELIP). This unique Nb(Ta)-Zr(Hf)-REE-Ga mineralization style has significant economic and geological potential for the study of mineralization of the lowest Xuanwei Formation.  相似文献

近20年来,越来越多的大型金属矿床在盆地内部及其边缘被发现。传统的勘查地球化学方法对盆地及盆山边缘覆盖区无能为力,深穿透地球化学探测技术为解决盆地及其边缘覆盖区找矿难题提供了一种行之有效的手段。文章通过对沉积砂岩盆地铀矿、火山岩盆地银多金属矿、变质岩盖层铜镍矿和沉积盖层金矿开展探测试验,得出:(1)砂岩型铀矿中活动性铀主要以铀酰络阳离子的形式存在,铀酰络阳离子很容易受地下水运动及蒸发蒸腾作用而发生迁移,迁移通道包括砂岩的孔隙、构造裂隙等,到达地表后,铀酰络阳离子易与土壤中带负电的黏土矿物结合而赋存其中,使用微细粒分离和活动态提取两种方法均能圈定矿致异常;(2)火山岩盆地中,与火山岩近乎同期形成的矿床,矿床形成过程中含矿流体携带成矿元素银、金、铜等沿构造裂隙运移,迁移到地表后被土壤中的黏土矿物所吸附,使用土壤活动态测量和微细粒分离测量均能有效圈定已知矿体,异常直接位于矿体上方;(3)变质岩盆地超基性岩体在侵位过程中,岩体与变质岩接触带将产生大量的构造裂隙,因此当流体通过岩体与围岩接触带时,将携带矿体中铜、镍向上迁移至地表,形成环状异常;(4)洛宁盆地金矿成矿过程中,成矿元素金、银等以络合物、纳米级单质或合金等形式通过流体携带顺着构造破碎带向上迁移,地表岩石风化发生成矿元素解离,后期被黄土覆盖,矿体或岩石解离的化合物或纳米颗粒可以穿过黄土孔隙向上迁移至地表,并赋存于表层黄土的细粒级黏土中,因此采用土壤微细粒分离测量可圈出矿致异常。本文根据深穿透地球化学方法应用效果,异常的形态,并结合盖层的特点,成矿元素的存在形式、迁移方式以及在地表的赋存状态,初步建立了盆地金属矿深穿透地球化学勘查模型,为盆地盖层区地球化学勘查提供了理论与技术支撑。  相似文献

The paper discusses petrological effects related to interaction between rocks and concentrated aqueous salt fluids (brines) at lower crustal metamorphism. These effects arise mainly from the low H2O activity typical of brines, while preserving and even increasing transport properties relative to pure H2O or H2O–nonpolar gas fluids. The paper presents thermodynamic properties of the halogen-bearing end members of the biotite solid solution based on experimental data, and examples illustrating how they can be employed to calculate the activities (concentrations) of alkali halides in the fluid. Action of brines significantly changes conventional views on the solubility of several minerals and on the distribution of elements (including trace elements) between minerals, melts, and fluids. The specific role of brines is also in bringing to interaction zones not only water but also alkali metals and Ca, which results in numerous metasomatic net-transfer reactions involving mafic minerals and/or exchange reactions with feldspars that produce new mineral assemblages with lower melting temperature, i.e., cause granitization of rocks as defined by D.S. Korzhinskii. Brines also exert fine “tuning” of metasomatic and melting processes: even at equal pressure, temperature, and water activity values metasomatism may or may not trigger melting depending on the Na/K/Ca ratio in the fluid phase.  相似文献

Petrochemical characteristics of igneous, sedimentary, and metasomatic rocks; chemical and isotopic compositions of minerals and fluids; and PT parameters of mineral formation at the Nezhdaninsky deposit are reported. A model of hydrothermal system formation is developed on this basis. In addition to decreasing Ba/Rb and Li/Mg ratios in the course of the hydrothermal process, resulting in the formation of ore-bearing metasomatic rocks, increasing K/Ba and diminishing K/Cs ratios indicate the probable participation of magmatic fluid in the ore deposition. The agreement of the K/Rb and K/Ba ratios with the values typical of the main trend of igneous rocks (MT) implies that the K, Rb, and Ba contents were distributed in the ore-forming hydrothermal fluid according to the ratios in the source magmatic chamber. The K/Rb ratios in metasomatic rocks correspond to the MT and approach the pegmatitic-hydrothermal trend and the composition of orthomagmatic fluid of Mo-W greisen. Similar REE patterns of igneous and terrigenous rocks do not allow the REE source to be constrained unequivocally. The lithological control of lithophile element distribution testifies to the supply of host rock components to the hydrothermal system. All studied rocks and minerals are enriched in LREE. The REE total and the contribution of HREE decrease from preore to synore metasomatic rocks, from preore to regenerated carbonates, and from older to younger scheelite. A similar tendency is noted in granitoids of the Kurum pluton. The δ18O values of quartz range from +10.3 to +12.6‰ in Au-Mo-W zones, from +15.9 to +16.4‰ in metasomatic rocks, from +14.8 to +16.6‰ in gold-ore veins, and from +13.5 to +16.9‰ in silver-base-metal ore mineralization. The estimates of \(\delta ^{18} O_{H_2 O} \) suggest that water was supplied from a magmatic source (δ18O = +(5.5?9.0‰)) and as a product of sedimentary rock dehydration. High-temperature (up to 390°C) and highly concentrated (up to 31 wt % NaCl equiv) fluids participated in the mineral formation. The phase separation of the fluid into H2O-CO2 liquid and predominantly carbon dioxide gas was combined with mixing of a high-temperature and relatively highly concentrated chloride solution with a low-temperature and poorly mineralized fluid. The redox conditions varied from equilibrium with CH4-bearing fluid at the gold-molybdenum-tungsten stage to equilibrium with CO2-bearing fluid during the gold-ore stage.  相似文献
