Sulfur K-edge X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) spectra were recorded for experimental glasses of various compositions prepared at different oxygen fugacities (fO2) in one-atmosphere gas-mixing experiments at 1400 °C. This sample preparation method only results in measurable S concentrations under either relatively reduced (log fO2 < −9) or oxidised (log fO2 > −2) conditions. The XANES spectra of the reduced samples are characterised by an absorption edge crest at 2476.4 eV, typical of S2−. In addition, spectra of Fe-bearing compositions exhibit a pronounced absorption edge shoulder. Spectra for all the Fe-free samples are essentially identical, as are the spectra for the Fe-bearing compositions, despite significant compositional variability within each group. The presence of a sulfide phase, such as might exsolve on cooling, can be inferred from a pre-edge feature at 2470.5 eV.The XANES spectra of the oxidised samples are characterised by an intense transition at 2482.1 eV, typical of the sulfate anion SO42−. Sulfite (SO32−) has negligible solubility in silicate melts at low pressures. The previous identification of sulfite species in natural glass samples is attributed to an artefact of the analysis (photoreduction of S6+). S4+ does, however, occur unambiguously with S6+ in Fe-free and Fe-poor compositions prepared in equilibrium with CaSO4 at 4-16 kbar, and when buffered with Re/ReO2 at 10 kbar. Solubility of S4+ thus requires partial pressures of SO2 considerably in excess of 1 bar. A number of experiments were undertaken in an attempt to access intermediate fO2s more applicable to terrestrial volcanism. Although these were largely unsuccessful, S2− and S6+ were found to coexist in some samples that were not in equilibrium with the imposed fO2.The XANES spectra of natural olivine-hosted melt inclusions and submarine glasses representative of basalts at, or close to, sulfide saturation show mainly dissolved S2−, but with minor sulfate, and additionally a peak at 2469.5 eV, which, although presumably due to immiscible sulfide, is 1 eV lower than that typical of FeS. These sulfate and sulfide-related peaks disappear with homogenisation of the inclusions by heating to 1200 °C followed by rapid quenching, suggesting that both these features are a result of cooling under natural conditions. The presence of small amounts of sulfate in otherwise reduced basaltic magmas may be explained by the electron exchange reaction: S2− + 8Fe3+ = S6+ + 8Fe2+, which is expected to proceed strongly to the right with decreasing temperature. This reaction would explain why S2− and S6+ are frequently found together despite the very limited fO2 range over which they are thermodynamically predicted to coexist. The S XANES spectra of water-rich, highly oxidised, basaltic inclusions hosted in olivine from Etna and Stromboli confirm that nearly all S is dissolved as sulfate, explaining their relatively high S contents.  相似文献

In order to improve our understanding of HSE geochemistry, we evaluate the effect of Fe on the solubility of Pd in silicate melts. To date, experimentally determined Pd solubilities in silicate melt are only available for Fe-free anorthite-diopside eutectic compositions. Here we report experiments to study the solubility of Pd in a natural picritic melt as a function of pO2 at 1300 °C in a one atm furnace. Palladium concentrations in the run products were determined by laser-ablation-ICP-MS. Palladium increases from 1.07 ± 0.26 ppm at FMQ-2, to 306 ± 19 ppm at FMQ+6.6. At a relative pO2 of FMQ the slope in log Pd concentration vs. log pO2 space increases considerably, and Pd concentrations are elevated over those established for AnDi melt compositions. In the same pO2 range, ferric iron significantly increases relative to ferrous iron. Furthermore, at constant pO2 (FMQ+0.5) Pd concentrations significantly increase with increasing XFeO-total in the melt. Therefore, we consider ferric Fe to promote the formation of Pd2+ enhancing the solubility of Pd in the picrite melt significantly.The presence of FeO in the silicate melt has proven to be an important melt compositional parameter, and should be included and systematically investigated in future experimental studies, since most natural compositions have substantial FeO contents.  相似文献

We have performed experiments to evaluate Au solubility in natural, water-saturated basaltic melts as a function of oxygen fugacity. Experiments were carried out at 1000 °C and 200 MPa, and oxygen fugacity was controlled at the fayalite-magnetite-quartz (FMQ) oxygen fugacity buffer and FMQ + 4. All experiments were saturated with a metal-chloride aqueous solution loaded initially as a 10 wt% NaCl eq. fluid. The stable phase assemblage at FMQ consists of basalt melt, olivine, clinopyroxene, a single-phase aqueous fluid, and metallic Au. The stable phase assemblage at FMQ + 4 consists of basalt melt, clinopyroxene, magnetite-spinel solid solution, a single-phase aqueous fluid, and metallic Au. Silicate glasses (i.e., quenched melt) and their contained crystalline material were analyzed by using both electron probe microanalysis (EPMA) and laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS). Measured Au concentrations in the quenched melt range from 4.8 μg g−1 to 0.64 μg g−1 at FMQ + 4, and 0.54 μg g−1 to 0.1 μg g−1 at FMQ. The measured solubility of Au in olivine and clinopyroxene was consistently below the LA-ICP-MS limit of detection (i.e., 0.1 μg g−1). These melt solubility data place important limitations on the dissolved Au content of water-saturated, Cl- and S-bearing basaltic liquids at geologically relevant fO2 values. The new data are compared to published, experimentally-determined values for Au solubility in dry and hydrous silicate liquids spanning the compositional range from basalt to rhyolite, and the effects of melt composition, oxygen fugacity, pressure and temperature are discussed.  相似文献

Os equilibrium solubilities were determined at 1350 °C over a wide range of oxygen fugacities (−12 < log fO2 < −7) applying the mechanically assisted equilibration technique (MAE) at 105 Pa (= 1 bar). Os concentrations in the glass samples were analysed using ID-NTIMS. Additional LA-ICP-MS and SEM analyses were performed to detect, visualize and analyse the nature and chemistry of “nanonuggets.” Os solubilities determined range at a constant temperature of 1350 °C from 0.63 ± 0.04 to 37.4 ± 1.16 ppb depending on oxygen fugacity. At the highest oxygen fugacities, Os3+ can be confirmed as the main oxidation state of Os. At low oxygen fugacities (below log fO2 = −8), samples are contaminated by nanonuggets which, despite the MAE technique, were still not removed entirely from the melt. However, the present results indicate that applying MAE technology does reduce the amount of nanonuggets present significantly, resulting in the lowest Os solubility results reported to date under these experimental conditions, and extending the experimentally accessible range of fO2 for these studies to lower values. Calculated metal/silicate melt partition coefficients are therefore higher compared to previous studies, making Os more siderophile. Neglecting the as yet unknown temperature dependence of the Os metal/silicate melt partition coefficient, extrapolation of the obtained Os solubilities to conditions for core-mantle equilibrium, results in a , while metallic alloy/silicate melt partition coefficients range from 1.4 × 106 to 8.6 × 107, in agreement with earlier findings. Therefore remains too high by 2-4 orders of magnitude to explain the Os abundance in the Earth’s mantle as result of core-mantle equilibrium during core formation.  相似文献

The volatization of Rhenium (Re) from melts of natural basalt, dacite and a synthetic composition in the CaO-MgO-Al2O3-SiO2 system has been investigated at 0.1 MPa and 1250-1350 °C over a range of fO2 conditions from log fO2 = −10 to −0.68. Experiments were conducted using open top Pt crucibles doped with Re and Yb. Analysis of quenched glasses by laser ablation-inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) normal to the melt/gas interface showed concentration profiles for Re, to which a semi-infinite one-dimensional diffusion model could be applied to extract diffusion coefficients (D). The results show Re diffusivity in basalt at 1300 °C in air is log DRe = −7.2 ± 0.3 cm2/s and increases to log DRe = −6.6 ± 0.3 cm2/s when trace amounts of Cl were added to the starting material. At fO2 conditions below the nickel-nickel oxide (NNO) buffer Re diffusivity decreases to and to in dacitic melt. In the CMAS composition, . The diffusivity of Re is comparable to Ar and CO2 in basalt at 500 MPa favoring its release as a volatile. Our results support the contention that subaerial degassing is the cause of lower Re concentrations in arc-type and ocean island basalts compared to mid-ocean ridge basalts.  相似文献

Crystallization experiments of basaltic andesite mafic endmember from the 24 ka Lower Pollara eruption (Salina, Aeolian Islands, Italy) were investigated at 200 MPa, 950–1100 °C, in the H2O activity (aH2O) range ~0.3 to 1, and at two ranges of oxygen fugacity (fO2) between ~FMQ to FMQ+1 and ~FMQ+2 to FMQ+3.3 (log bars, FMQ is fayalite-magnetite-quartz). Comparison of the produced phase assemblages and phase compositions with the natural sample reveals that the storage conditions were ~1050 °C, ~2.8 wt% H2O in the melt (aH2O ~0.5), and relatively oxidizing (~FMQ+2.5). The composition of plagioclase in the groundmass indicates a period of cooling to ≤950 °C. The overall differentiation trends of the Salina volcanics can be explained by fractional crystallization close to H2O saturated conditions (~5 wt% H2O in the melt at 200 MPa) and most likely by accumulation of plagioclase, i.e., in basaltic andesites, and by various degree of mixing–mingling between the corresponding differentiates. The slightly elevated K2O contents of the most mafic basaltic andesites that can be found in the lowermost unit of the Lower Pollara pyroclastics reveal earlier processes of moderately hydrous fractional crystallization at higher temperature (>~1050 °C). Fractional crystallization with decreasing influence of H2O causes a moderate decrease of MgO and a significant increase of K2O relative to SiO2 in the residual liquids. It is exemplarily shown that the crystallization of SiO2-rich phases at high temperature and low aH2O of only moderately K2O-rich calc-alkaline basalts can produce shoshonitic and high potassic rocks similar to those of Stromboli and Volcano. This suggests that the observed transition from calc-alkaline to shoshonitic and high potassic volcanism at the Aeolian Arc over time can be initiated by a general increase of magmatic temperatures and a decrease of aH2O in response to the extensional tectonics and related increase of heat flow and declining influence of slab-derived fluids.  相似文献

Experiments characterizing the kinetics of anorthosite dissolution in lunar picritic magmas (very low-Ti, low-Ti, and high-Ti picritic glasses) were conducted at 0.6 GPa and 1250-1400 °C using the dissolution couple method. Reaction between the anorthosite and lunar picritic magmas at 1250-1300 °C produced a spinel + melt layer. Reaction between the anorthosite and an olivine-saturated low-Ti magma at 1250-1300 °C produced a crystal-free region between the spinel + melt layer and the olivine-saturated magma. The anorthosite dissolution experiments conducted at 1400 °C simply dissolved anorthosite and did not result in a crystal-bearing region. The rate of anorthosite dissolution strongly depends on temperature and composition of the reacting melt. Concentration profiles that develop during anorthosite dissolution are nonlinear and extend from the picritic glass compositions to anorthite. These profiles feature a large and continuous variation in melt density and viscosity from the anorthosite-melt interface to the initial picritic magmas. In both the low-Ti and high-Ti magmas the diffusive fluxes of TiO2, Al2O3, and SiO2 are strongly coupled to the concentration gradients of CaO and FeO. Anorthosite dissolution may play an important role in producing the chemical variability of the lunar picritic magmas, the origin of spinel in the lunar basalts and picritic glasses, and the petrogenesis of the high-Al basalts.  相似文献

High pressure experiments have been performed in the systems Mg2SiO4-C-O-H and Mg2SiO4-K2CO3-C at 6.3 GPa and 1200 to 1600 °C using a split-sphere multi-anvil apparatus. In the Mg2SiO4-C-O-H system the composition of fluid was modeled by adding different amounts of water and stearic acid. The fO2 was controlled by the Mo-MoO2 or Fe-FeO oxygen buffers. Several experiments in the Mg2SiO4-C-O-H system and all experiments in the Mg2SiO4-K2CO3-C system have been conducted without buffering the fO2. Forsterite in the system Mg2SiO4-K2CO3-C does not reveal OH absorption bands in the IR spectra, while forsterite coexisting with carbon-bearing fluid and silicate melt at logfO2 from FMQ-2 to FMQ-5 (from 2 to 5 log units below fayalite-magnetite-quartz oxygen buffer) contains 800-1850 wt. ppm H2O. The maximum concentrations were detected at 1400 °C and FMQ-3.5. We observed an increase in the solidus temperature in the system Mg2SiO4-C-O-H from 1200 to above 1600 °C with log fO2 decreasing from FMQ-2 to FMQ-5. The increase of the solidus temperature and the broadening of the stability field of the H2O-H2-CH4 subsolidus fluid phase at 1400-1600 °C explain the high H2O storage capacity of forsterite relative to that crystallized from carbon-free, oxidized, hydrous, silicic melt. At temperatures above 1400 °C liquidus forsterite precipitated along with diamond from oxidized (FMQ-1) carbonate-silicate melt and from silicate melt dissolving the moderately reduced C-O-H fluid (from FMQ-2 to FMQ-3.5). Formation of diamond was not detected under ultra-reduced conditions (FMQ-5) at 1200-1600 °C. Olivine co-precipitating with diamond from dry carbonate-silicate or hydrous-silicic fluid/melt can provide information on the H2O contents and speciation of the diamond-forming media in the mantle. The conditions for minimum post-crystallization alteration of olivine and its hydrogen content are discussed.  相似文献

Solubility of Au in Cl- and S-bearing hydrous silicate melts   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2  
The solubility of Au in Cl- and S-bearing hydrous rhyodacitic and andesitic melts has been experimentally investigated at 1050 °C, 200 MPa and log fO2 close to the Ni/NiO solid oxygen buffer (NNO). The concentrations of Au in the experimental glasses have been determined using Laser Ablation ICP-MS (LA) with special efforts to avoid incorporation of Au micronuggets in the analysis. It is concluded that metal micronuggets are an experimental artefact and produced by Au partitioning into the fluids during heating with consequent precipitation on fluid dissolution in the melting glass powder. Hence, the micronuggets do not represent quench phases and must be excluded from the analysis. The micro-analytical data obtained by LA show that Au concentrations vary from ∼0.2 to ∼2.5 ppm by weight, generally consistent with the literature data for other melt compositions. The measured Au concentrations increase with increasing amounts of Cl and S dissolved in the silicate melt and show a correlation with the apparent activities of Cl and S in the system. The apparent activities of Cl and S are defined by the simplified linear relationship between volatile concentrations in the melt and activity of volatiles. The maximum activity (a∗ = 1) is assumed to be reached at the saturation of the systems in respect of Cl-rich brine or FeS liquid for Cl and S, respectively. The dependence of Au solubility on the concentrations/activities of Cl and S at the fixed redox conditions shows that Au may form not only oxide- but also Cl- and S-bearing complexes in silicate melts. Furthermore, it indicates that exsolution of S and Cl from the melt by degassing/segregation/crystallization processes may lead to mobilization and extraction of Au into the fluid, liquid and/or mineral phase(s).  相似文献

We have determined Cr diffusion coefficients (D) in orthopyroxene parallel to the a-, b-, and c-axial directions as a function temperature at f(O2) corresponding to those of the wüstite-iron (WI) buffer. Diffusion is found to be significantly anisotropic with D(//c) > D(//b) > D(//a), conforming to an earlier theoretical prediction. Increase of f(O2) from WI buffer conditions to 4.5 log unit above the buffer at 950 and 1050 °C leads to decrease of D(Cr) by a factor of two to three, possibly suggesting significant contribution from an interstitial diffusion mechanism. We have used the diffusion data to calculate the closure temperatures (Tc) of the Mn-Cr decay system in orthopyroxene as a function of initial temperature (T0), grain size (a) and cooling rate for spherical and plane sheet geometries. We also present graphical relations that permit retrieval of cooling rates from knowledge of the resetting of Mn-Cr ages in orthopyroxene during cooling, T0 and a. Application of these relations to the Mn-Cr age data of the cumulate eucrite Serra de Magé yields a Tc of 830-980 °C, and cooling rates of 2-27 °C/Myr at Tc and ∼1-13 °C/Myr at 500 °C. It is shown that the cooling of Serra de Magé to the closure temperature of the Mn-Cr system took place at its original site in the parent body, and thus implies a thickness for the eucrite crust in the commonly accepted HED parent body, Vesta, of greater than 30 km. This thickness of the eucrite crust is compatible only with a model of relatively olivine-poor bulk mineralogy in which olivine constitutes 19.7% of the total asteroidal mass.  相似文献

XANES analyses at the sulfur K-edge were used to determine the oxidation state of S species in natural and synthetic basaltic glasses and to constrain the fO2 conditions for the transition from sulfide (S2−) to sulfate (S6+) in silicate melts. XANES spectra of basaltic samples from the Galapagos spreading center, the Juan de Fuca ridge and the Lau Basin showed a dominant broad peak at 2476.8 eV, similar to the spectra obtained from synthetic sulfide-saturated basalts and pyrrhotite. An additional sharp peak at 2469.8 eV, similar to that of crystalline sulfides, was present in synthetic glasses quenched from hydrous melts but absent in anhydrous glasses and may indicate differences in sulfide species with hydration or presence of minute sulfide inclusions exsolved during quenching. The XANES spectra of a basalt from the 1991 eruption of Mount Pinatubo, Philippines, and absarokitic basalts from the Cascades Range, Oregon, USA, showed a sharp peak at 2482.8 eV, characteristic of synthetic sulfate-saturated basaltic glasses and crystalline sulfate-bearing minerals such as hauyne. Basaltic samples from the Lamont Seamount, the early submarine phase of Kilauea volcano and the Loihi Seamount showed unequivocal evidence of the coexistence of S2− and S6+ species, emphasizing the relevance of S6+ to these systems. XANES spectra of basaltic glasses synthesized in internally-heated pressure vessels and equilibrated at fO2 ranging from FMQ − 1.4 to FMQ + 2.7 showed systematic changes in the features related to S2− and S6+ with changes in fO2. No significant features related to sulfite (S4+) species were observed. These results were used to construct a function that allows estimates of S6+/ΣS from XANES data. Comparison of S6+/ΣS data obtained by S Kα shifts measured with electron probe microanalysis (EPMA), S6+/ΣS obtained from XANES spectra, and theoretical considerations show that data obtained from EPMA measurements underestimate S6+/ΣS in samples that are sulfate-dominated (most likely because of photo-reduction effects during analysis) whereas S6+/ΣS from XANES provide a close match to the expected theoretical values. The XANES-derived relationship for S6+/ΣS as a function of fO2 indicates that the transition from S2− to S6− with increasing fO2 occurs over a narrower interval than what is predicted by the EPMA-derived relationship. The implications for natural systems is that small variation of fO2 above FMQ + 1 will have a large effect on S behavior in basaltic systems, in particular regarding the amount of S that can be transported by basaltic melts before sulfide saturation can occur.  相似文献

The texture of Los Angeles (stone 1) is dominated by relatively large (0.5−2.0 mm) anhedral to subhedral grains of pyroxene, and generally subhedral to euhedral shocked plagioclase feldspar (maskelynite). Minor phases include subhedral titanomagnetite and ilmenite, Fe-rich olivine, olivine+augite-dominated symplectites [some of which include a Si-rich phase and some which do not], pyrrhotite, phosphate(s), and an impact shock-related alkali- and silica-rich glass closely associated with anhedral to euhedral silica grains. Observations and model calculations indicate that the initial crystallization of Mg-rich pigeonitic pyroxenes at ≤1150 °C, probably concomitantly with plagioclase, was followed by pigeonitic and augitic compositions between 1100 and 1050 °C whereas between 1050 and 920 to 905 °C pyroxene of single composition crystallized. Below 920 to 905 °C, single composition Fe-rich clinopyroxene exsolved to augite and pigeonite. Initial appearance of titanomagnetite probably occurred near 990 °C and FMQ-1.5 whereas at and below 990 °C and ≥FMQ-1.5 titanomagnetite and single composition Fe-rich clinopyroxene may have started to react, producing ilmenite and olivine. However, judging from the most common titanomagnetite compositions, we infer that most of this reaction likely occurred between 950 and 900 °C at FMQ-1.0±0.2 and nearly simultaneously with pyroxene exsolution, thus producing assemblages of pigeonite, titanomagnetite, olivine, ilmenite, and augite. We deem this reaction as the most plausible explanation for the formation of the olivine+augite-dominated symplectites in Los Angeles. But we cannot preclude possible contributions to the symplectites from the shock-related alkali- and silica-rich glass or shocked plagioclase, and the breakdown of Fe-rich pigeonite compositions to olivine+augite+silica below 900 °C. Reactions between Fe-Ti oxides and silicate minerals in Los Angeles and other similar basaltic Martian meteorites can control the T-fO2 equilibration path during cooling, which may better explain the relative differences in fO2 among the basaltic Martian meteorites.  相似文献

The rheology of crystal-bearing basaltic magmas from Stromboli and Etna   总被引：4，自引：0，他引：4  
Our ability to forecast volcanic hazards at active volcanoes stems from our knowledge of parameters affecting eruption dynamics. Persistent activity displayed by basaltic volcanic systems, such as Etna and Stromboli, is governed mainly by the textural evolution and rheological properties of eruptive products. Here, we investigate the high temperature (1131 °C < T < 1187 °C) rheological behavior and textural evolution of remelted natural basaltic magmas from Stromboli and Etna volcanic systems upon cooling and crystallization at atmospheric conditions. The pure liquid and subliquidus isothermal viscosities are investigated using a concentric cylinder apparatus by varying strain rate applied to the investigated materials. Detailed textural analysis has been performed in order to evaluate the effect of crystal distribution on the rheological evolution of magmas. At subliquidus conditions, the mineralogical assemblage is dominated by the presence of spinel and plagioclase with the occurrence of stable clinopyroxene only at the lowest temperatures (1157 and 1131 °C for the Stromboli and the Etna samples, respectively). The overall crystal fraction (?) varies between 0.06 and 0.27. In the high T regime the viscous response to applied stress and strain rate is strongly affected by the presence of even small amounts of crystals. Large discrepancies between measured and predicted viscosities obtained using the Einstein-Roscoe (ER) equation are also found at low crystal fractions. We find here that, at the investigated conditions, the physical effect caused by the presence of elongated crystals is orders of magnitude higher than that predicted by existing models which only account for spherical particles. It also appears that a weak shear thinning behavior occurs at the lowest temperatures investigated. Crystal shape and, with it, the strain-rate dependence of the rheological properties appear to play primary roles in influencing the transport properties of these basaltic magmas.  相似文献

Temperature-resolved analyses of volatiles from Mid-Ocean-Ridge-Basalt (MORB) and vitreous basaltic rims were carried out to investigate the total volatile contents of basaltic melts and the influence of magma contamination on the degassing behaviour of volcanic rocks.With respect to the sources of methane evolution from the MORB the investigations are taken into consideration, the hydrocarbon (HC) release especially from the melt.The current paper presents data for H2O, CO2, SO2, He, H2, HF, HCl, CO, N2, O2, and HC degassing profiles of samples from the MORB sampling cruise 02.10.1983-11.11.1983 with FS Sonne 28 during the GEMINO-1 project near the Carlsberg Ridge (CR) and the Mid-Indian-Ocean-Ridge (MIOR).It aims to estimate the magnitude and nature of source magma volatiles and contamination (crustal material, seawater, atmospheric gases).The degassing of H2O, CO2, HCs as well as sulphur and chlorine species, or O2 from vitreous specimens shows characteristic differences associated with sample position with respect to the lava surface.From the water release by bubbling and diffusion above 700 °C it must be concluded that any assimilation of sea water in vitreous rim is very low. The water content in the vitreous rim is about 0.1-0.2 wt%. The low interaction of melt with sea water is supported by the missing of a significant release of chlorine species during the heat treatment of the sample up to 1450 °C.Mixed H2O/CO2 bubbles escape between 700 and 800 °C from the vitreous rim. The CO2 release in the temperature range of 1060-1170 °C from the basalt and the vitreous rim is interpreted as an indication for the primary carbon-dioxide content in the melt.Above 1100 °C CO2 and SO2 are evolved by both diffusion and small bubbles. The quantities of CO2 in the vitreous rim and the basalt are similar (between 0.05 and 0.15 wt%), whereas the quantities of SO2 escaping both from the vitreous rim and the crystalline basalt are between 0.013 and 0.024 wt%.Simultaneous with the CO2 release by bubbling, HC species, especially CH fragments, were observed. The fact that the temperature of release maxima are above 1050 °C in both the vitreous rim and in the basalt is an indication for a geogenetic origin of HCs, e.g. methane.A low temperature of release for methane, which is consistent with biogenetic HC, was observed from the gas-release profiles of the basalts only. The maxima of the low-temperature gas releases are between 80 and 200 °C with a high correlation between the fragments m/z 13 and m/z 15. This correlation is a significant indication for a methane release.The oxygen release profiles of vitreous and crystalline basalts give significant indications for oxygen fugacity below the (QMF) of basaltic magma.Secondary minerals, generated by alteration of basaltic rocks, can be characterized by gas release profiles (GRPs) due to their decomposition in the temperature range below 800 °C. Only in the basalt were there observed indications of alteration processes. Small traces of carbonates (<0.0001 wt%) were detected by the gas release during the decomposition.Processes of degassing at temperatures higher than 800 °C are correlated to volatiles in the melt and to fluid inclusions of the minerals. There are no obvious correlations in the degassing characteristics between H2O, CO2 and SO2. The different maxima of the degassing velocity, especially of CO2, and SO2, are indications of the different bonding forces of the site occupancy of the volatiles in the melt and in the glass. A micelle model for bonding sites in the basaltic glass for dissolved volatiles is discussed.  相似文献

Here we present the first set of metal-silicate partitioning data for Cs, which we use to examine whether the primitive mantle depletion of Cs can be attributed to core segregation. Our experiments independently varied pressure from 5 to 15 GPa, temperature from 1900 to 2400 °C, metallic sulfur content from pure Fe to pure FeS, silicate melt polymerization, expressed as a ratio of non-bridging oxygens to tetrahedrally coordinated cations (nbo/t) from 1.26 to 3.1, and fO2 from two to four log units below the iron-wüstite buffer. The most important controls on the partitioning behavior of alkalis were the metallic sulfur content, expressed as XS, and the nbo/t of the silicate liquid. Normalization of XS to 0.5 yielded the following expressions for D-values as a function of nbo/t: log DNa = −2.0 + 0.44 × (nbo/t), log DK = −2.4 + 0.67 × ( nbo/t), and log DCs = −3.2 + 1.17 × (nbo/t). Normalization of nbo/t to 2.7 resulted in the following equations for D-values as a function of S content: log DNa = −4.1 + 6.4 × XS, log DK = −7.7 + 13.9 × XS, and log DCs = −12.1 + 23.3 × XS.There appears to be a negative pressure effect up to 15 GPa, but it should be noted that this trend was not present before normalization, and is based on only two measurements. There is a positive trend in cesium’s metal-silicate partition coefficient with increasing temperature. DCs exhibits the largest change and increased by a factor of three over 500 °C. The effect of oxygen fugacity has not been precisely determined but in general, lowering fO2 by two log units resulted in a rise in all D-values of approximately an order of magnitude. In general, the sensitivity of partition coefficients to changing parameters increased with atomic number.The highest D-value for Cs observed in this study is 0.345, which was obtained at nbo/t of 2.7 and a metal phase of pure FeS. This metallic composition has far more S than has been suggested for any credible core-forming metal. We therefore conclude that the depletion of Cs in Earth’s mantle is either caused by radically different behavior of Cs at pressures higher than 15 GPa or is not related to core formation. Even so, we have shown that a planet with a sufficient S inventory may incorporate significant amounts of alkali elements into its core.  相似文献

In order to (1) explain the worldwide association between epithermal gold-copper-molybdenum deposits and arc magmas and (2) test the hypothesis that adakitic magmas would be Au-specialized, we have determined the solubility of Au at 4 kbar and 1000 °C for three intermediate magmas (two adakites and one calc-alkaline composition) from the Philippines. The experiments were performed over a fO2 range corresponding to reducing (∼NNO−1), moderately oxidizing (∼NNO+1.5) and strongly oxidizing (∼NNO+3) conditions as measured by solid Ni-Pd-O sensors. They were carried out in gold containers, the latter serving also as the source of gold, in presence of variable amounts of H2O and, in a few additional experiments, of S. Concentrations of Au in glasses were determined by LA-ICPMS. Gold solubility in melt is very low (30-240 ppb) but increases with fO2 in a way consistent with the dissolution of gold as both Au1+ and Au3+ species. In the S-bearing experiments performed at ∼NNO−1, gold solubility reaches much higher values, from ∼1200 to 4300 ppb, and seems to correlate with melt S content. No systematic difference in gold solubility is observed between the adakitic and the non-adakitic compositions investigated. Oxygen fugacity and the sulfur concentration in melt are the main parameters controlling the incorporation and concentration of gold in magmas. Certain adakitic and non-adakitic magmas have high fO2 and magmatic S concentrations favorable to the incorporation and transport of gold. Therefore, the cause of a particular association between some arc magmas and Au-Cu-Mo deposits needs to be searched in the origin of those specialized magmas by involvement of Au- and S-rich protoliths. The subducted slab, which contains metal-rich massive sulfides, may constitute a potentially favorable protolith for the genesis of magmas specialized with respect to gold.  相似文献

The structure of H2O-saturated silicate melts and of silicate-saturated aqueous solutions, as well as that of supercritical silicate-rich aqueous liquids, has been characterized in-situ while the sample was at high temperature (to 800 °C) and pressure (up to 796 MPa). Structural information was obtained with confocal microRaman and with FTIR spectroscopy. Two Al-bearing glasses compositionally along the join Na2O•4SiO2-Na2O•4(NaAl)O2-H2O (5 and 10 mol% Al2O3, denoted NA5 and NA10) were used as starting materials. Fluids and melts were examined along pressure-temperature trajectories of isochores of H2O at nominal densities (from PVT properties of pure H2O) of 0.85 g/cm3 (NA10 experiments) and 0.86 g/cm3 (NA5 experiments) with the aluminosilicate + H2O sample contained in an externally-heated, Ir-gasketed hydrothermal diamond anvil cell.Molecular H2O (H2O°) and OH groups that form bonds with cations exist in all three phases. The OH/H2O° ratio is positively correlated with temperature and pressure (and, therefore, fugacity of H2O, fH2O) with (OH/H2O°)melt > (OH/H2O°)fluid at all pressures and temperatures. Structural units of Q3, Q2, Q1, and Q0 type occur together in fluids, in melts, and, when outside the two-phase melt + fluid boundary, in single-phase liquids. The abundance of Q0 and Q1 increases and Q2 and Q3 decrease with fH2O. Therefore, the NBO/T (nonbridging oxygen per tetrahedrally coordination cations), of melt is a positive function of fH2O. The NBO/T of silicate in coexisting aqueous fluid, although greater than in melt, is less sensitive to fH2O.The melt structural data are used to describe relationships between activity of H2O and melting phase relations of silicate systems at high pressure and temperature. The data were also combined with available partial molar configurational heat capacity of Qn-species in melts to illustrate how these quantities can be employed to estimate relationships between heat capacity of melts and their H2O content.  相似文献

We conducted melting experiments on a low MgO (3.29 wt.%) basaltic andesite (54.63 wt.% SiO2) from Westdahl volcano, Alaska, at XH2O = 0.7–1 and fO2 ~ Ni–NiO, at pressures = 0.1–180 MPa and temperatures = 900–1,200 °C. We examine the evolution of the melt along a liquid line of descent during equilibrium crystallization at high H2O and fO2 conditions, starting from a high FeOt/MgO, low MgO basaltic andesite. Ti-magnetite formed on the liquidus regardless of XH2O, followed by clinopyroxene, plagioclase, amphibole, and orthopyroxene. We observe slight but significant differences in the phase stability curves between the XH2O = 1 and 0.7 experiments. Early crystallization of Ti-magnetite and suppression of plagioclase at higher pressures and temperatures resulted in strongly decreasing melt FeOt/MgO with increasing SiO2, consistent with a “calc-alkaline” compositional trend, in agreement with prior phase equilibria studies on basalt at similar H2O and fO2. Our study helps quantify the impact of small amounts of CO2 and high fO2 on the evolution of melts formed during crystallization of a low MgO basaltic andesite magma stored at mid- to shallow crustal conditions. Like the prior studies, we conclude that H2O strongly influences melt evolution trends, through stabilization of Ti-magnetite on the liquidus and suppression of plagioclase at high P–T conditions.  相似文献

In order to use lithium isotopes as tracers of silicate weathering, it is of primary importance to determine the processes responsible for Li isotope fractionation and to constrain the isotope fractionation factors caused by each process as a function of environmental parameters (e.g. temperature, pH). The aim of this study is to assess Li isotope fractionation during the dissolution of basalt and particularly during leaching of Li into solution by diffusion or ion exchange. To this end, we performed dissolution experiments on a Li-enriched synthetic basaltic glass at low ratios of mineral surface area/volume of solution (S/V), over short timescales, at various temperatures (50 and 90 °C) and pH (3, 7, and 10). Analyses of the Li isotope composition of the resulting solutions show that the leachates are enriched in 6Li (δ7Li = +4.9 to +10.5‰) compared to the fresh basaltic glass (δ7Li = +10.3 ± 0.4‰). The δ7Li value of the leachate is lower during the early stages of the leaching process, increasing to values close to the fresh basaltic glass as leaching progresses. These low δ7Li values can be explained in terms of diffusion-driven isotope fractionation. In order to quantify the fractionation caused by diffusion, we have developed a model that couples Li diffusion with dissolution of the glassy silicate network. This model calculates the ratio of the diffusion coefficients of both isotopes (a = D7/D6), as well as its dependence on temperature, pH, and S/V. a is mainly dependent on temperature, which can be explained by a small difference in activation energy (0.10 ± 0.02 kJ/mol) between 6Li+ and 7Li+. This temperature dependence reveals that Li isotope fractionation during diffusion is low at low temperatures (T < 20 °C), but can be significant at high temperatures. However, concerning hydrothermal fluids (T > 120 °C), the dissolution rate of basaltic glass is also high and masks the effects of diffusion. These results indicate that the high δ7Li values of river waters, in particular in basaltic catchments, and the fractionated values of hydrothermal fluids are mainly controlled by precipitation of secondary phases.  相似文献

Olivine dissolution in basaltic melt   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  
The main purpose of this work is to understand and quantify diffusive and convective olivine dissolution in basaltic melt. Crystal dissolution and growth in a magma chamber is often accompanied by the descent or ascent of the crystal in the chamber due to gravity. The motion induces convection that enhances mass transport. Such convective dissolution and growth rates have not been quantified before. MgO diffusivity in the melt (DMgO), MgO concentration of the interface melt (C0) and the effective thickness of the compositional boundary layer (δ) are necessary parameters to model the convective dissolution. Experiments of non-convective olivine dissolution in a basaltic melt were conducted at 1271-1480 °C and 0.47-1.42 GPa in a piston-cylinder apparatus. At specific temperature and pressure conditions, multiple experiments of different durations show that the interface melt reaches near-saturation within 2 min. Therefore, diffusion, not interface reaction, is the rate-controlling step for non-convective olivine dissolution in basaltic melt. The compositional profile length and olivine dissolution distance are proportional to the square root of experimental duration, consistent with diffusive dissolution. DMgO and C0 are obtained from the experimental results. DMgO displays Arrhenian dependence on temperature, but the pressure dependence is small and not resolved. C0 increases with increasing temperature and decreases with increasing pressure. Comparison with literature data shows that DMgO depends strongly on the initial melt composition, while C0 does not. δ is estimated from fluid dynamics. DMgO/δ, which characterizes the kinetic and dynamic aspects of convective crystal dissolution, is parameterized as a function of temperature, pressure, and olivine composition. Convective olivine dissolution rate in basaltic melt can be conveniently calculated from the model results. Application to convective crystal growth and xenolith digestion is discussed.  相似文献
