MCT Zone of Alakhnanda valley is a major ductile shear zone in Garhwal Himalaya, which is characterised by different types of mylonite rocks. On the basis of grain size and the percentage of matrix in the rock, zones comprising protomylonite, augen mylonite, mylonite and ultramylonite have been identified. The study of microstructures, grain size and crystallographic preferred orientation of quartz c-axis fabric reveals that the rocks of the MCT zone were deformed by a combination of intracrystalline creep (power law creep) and grain boundary migration (sliding super plasticity).  相似文献

Diffusion parameters have been estimated for K-feldspar in and adjacent to mylonite shear zones in the Wyangala Batholith. The parameters obtained suggest that deformation during mylonitisation would have caused argon systematics to reset because diffusion distances were reduced by cataclasis, deformation and/or recrystallisation. However, the mineral lattice remained sufficiently retentive to allow subsequently produced radiogenic argon to be retained. 40Ar/39Ar geochronology is thus able to constrain operation of these biotite-grade ductile shear zones to the period from ca 380 Ma to ca 360 Ma, at the end of the Tabberabberan Orogeny.  相似文献

The structural geometry of a mylonite zone (the Woodroffe thrust) and the country rock in its immediate vicinity is described. Mylonitic schistosity formed axial planar to folds in country rock foliation and contains a mineral elongation lineation which is constant in orientation. However, the fold axes (and associated intersection lineation) spread in orientation within the mylonitic schistosity but with a strong maximum parallel to the mineral elongation lineation. It is demonstrated that the fold axes formed initially at approximately 90° to mineral elongation but rotated with increase in strain towards it. Where this phenomenon was homogeneous on a macroscopic scale, rotation of large blocks of country rock across zones of mylonitization accompanied reorientation of fold axes within the mylonite.The controversy of progressive simple versus progressive pure shear for mylonite zones is discussed in the light of recent fabric and other evidence. It is concluded that the inhomogeneous forms of both progressive pure shear and progressive simple shear played a part and that the former dominated initially but gradually gave way to the latter until brittle rupture with large simple-shear displacements on a zone lubricated by the formation of pseudotachylite, brought granulite over amphibolite facies rocks.  相似文献

Porphyroclasts of relatively strong minerals in mylonites commonly have an internal monoclinic shape symmetry defined by tails of dynamically recrystallized material. The geometry of a porphyroclast and its tails, called a ‘porhyroclast system’, can serve as a valuable indicator of the sense of vorticity. Porphyroclast systems have been divided into σ- and δ-types on the basis of the geometry of the tails. σ-Types have wedge-shaped recrystallized tails whose median lines lie on opposite sides of a reference plane parallel to the tails and containing the symmetry axis for the system. σ-Types are further subdivided into a σa-types, in which the porphyroclast is isolated in a relatively homogeneous matrix, and σb-types, in which the porphyroclast system is associated with a shear band foliation in the matrix. δ-Types typically have narrow recrystallized tails whose median lines cross the reference plane adjacent to the porphyroclast. Consequently, embayments of matrix material occur adjacent to the porphyroclasts and the tails display characteristic bends.A porphyroclast system in a mylonite develops when the relatively weak dynamically recrystallized grain aggregate in the porphyroclast mantle changes its shape due to non-coaxial flow in the adjacent matrix. This behaviour has been modelled in shear box experiments. Passive marker lines around rigid cylinders embedded in silicone putty were subjected to simple shear. The experiments were modified to simulate a change in recrystallization rate (R) with respect to rate of deformation (γ) by decreasing the diameter of the rigid cylinder during deformation at variable rates. The ratio R/γ appears to be one of the most important factors in determining which porphyroclast system will develop. At high R/γ values, flow of recrystallized material away from the porphyroclast is continuously appended by the production of new grains and wedge-shaped σa-type tails develop. At low R/γ values, relatively few new grains are added to the tails which become thinned and deflected by drag due to the spinning motion of the porphyroclast. In addition, most porphyroclast systems at low shear strains are of σa-type or lack monoclinic symmetry, whereas δ-types are only developed at high shear strain values. Complex porphyroclast systems, characterized by two generations of tails, are observed in many of the natural and model shear zones studied and may form due to fluctuating R/γ. Conditions that allow isolated σa- and δ-type porphyroclast systems to be used as sense of vorticity indicators are: the systems should have a monoclinic shape symmetry; matrix grain size should be small with respect to porphyroclast size; matrix fabric should be homogeneous; deformation history should be simple, and observations should be made on sections normal to the inferred bulk vorticity vector for the mylonite.  相似文献

Transpressional deformation has played an important role in the late Neoproterozoic evolution of the ArabianNubian Shield including the Central Eastern Desert of Egypt. The Ghadir Shear Belt is a 35 km-long, NW-oriented brittleductile shear zone that underwent overall sinistral transpression during the Late Neoproterozoic. Within this shear belt, strain is highly partitioned into shortening, oblique, extensional and strike-slip structures at multiple scales. Moreover, strain partitioning is heterogeneous along-strike giving rise to three distinct structural domains. In the East Ghadir and Ambaut shear belts, the strain is pure-shear dominated whereas the narrow sectors parallel to the shear walls in the West Ghadir Shear Zone are simple-shear dominated. These domains are comparable to splay-dominated and thrust-dominated strike-slip shear zones. The kinematic transition along the Ghadir shear belt is consistent with separate strike-slip and thrustsense shear zones. The earlier fabric(S1), is locally recognized in low strain areas and SW-ward thrusts. S2 is associated with a shallowly plunging stretching lineation(L2), and defines ~NW-SE major upright macroscopic folds in the East Ghadir shear belt. F2 folds are superimposed by ~NNW–SSE tight-minor and major F3 folds that are kinematically compatible with sinistral transpressional deformation along the West Ghadir Shear Zone and may represent strain partitioning during deformation. F2 and F3 folds are superimposed by ENE–WSW gentle F4 folds in the Ambaut shear belt. The sub-parallelism of F3 and F4 fold axes with the shear zones may have resulted from strain partitioning associated with simple shear deformation along narrow mylonite zones and pure shear-dominant deformation in fold zones. Dextral ENEstriking shear zones were subsequently active at ca. 595 Ma, coeval with sinistral shearing along NW-to NNW-striking shear zones. The occurrence of upright folds and folds with vertical axes suggests that transpression plays a significant role in the tectonic evolution of the Ghadir shear belt. Oblique convergence may have been provoked by the buckling of the Hafafit gneiss-cored domes and relative rotations between its segments. Upright folds, fold with vertical axes and sinistral strike-slip shear zones developed in response to strain partitioning. The West Ghadir Shear Zone contains thrusts and strikeslip shear zones that resulted from lateral escape tectonics associated with lateral imbrication and transpression in response to oblique squeezing of the Arabian-Nubian Shield during agglutination of East and West Gondwana.  相似文献

超高压变质岩的发现导致了人们对大别山构造格架的重新认识。最近的研究表明,超高压变质岩只产于大别山南部(Wang et al., 1992),而北部为古生代岛弧杂岩所占据,晓天-磨子潭断裂即为这些杂岩的北界(Wang et al., 1994)。晓天-磨子潭断裂作为左行走滑断裂已经得到公认,但笔者对该断裂南侧糜棱岩的研究表明,其并非左行走滑产物,而是早期变形的构造形迹。本文旨在分析这些糜棱岩中石英的显微构造,进而揭示其早期构造变形特征。  相似文献

The shortening direction in rocks deformed in collision or subduction zones is not directly related to the plate-convergence vector; rather, it is perpendicular to the collision zone or subduction zone, even in cases where plate convergence is oblique. The component of convergence parallel to the subduction/collision zone is expressed by strike-slip displacement in the arc region behind the subduction zone. Such strike-slip shear zones have been recognized in the Seven Devils terrane of northeastern Oregon and adjacent Idaho. One of these (the Oxbow shear zone consisting of cataclasite, mylonite, and ultra-mylonite) trends northeasterly from Oxbow, Oregon to Cuprum, Idaho. The original rock types of the shear zone were plagiogranite, gabbro, diabase, bassalt, and keratophyre. The age of the mylonitization is constrained by 40Ar/39Ar dates as Late Triassic. Meso- and microscopic structures (textures and quartz c-axes fabrics) indicate that the shear zone was formed by left-lateral, strike-slip motion. A minimum left-lateral displacement of 65 km has been estimated, but the true displacement may have been much larger. The Oxbow shear zone is interpreted as an intra-arc strike-slip zone of the Seven Devils terrane, related to left-oblique plate convergence during the Triassic.  相似文献

内蒙古东苏旗南部金矿控矿和预查选区分析   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
东苏旗南部处于内蒙古中部地槽褶皱系。区内韧-脆性剪切变质构造发育,由北至南形成3条大型韧-脆性剪切带,控制着区内所有金矿床(点)和金矿化带的分布,矿(化)体产状与韧性剪切带的大体相同,并受韧性剪切带控制。呈板状或条带状分布的具有片麻状构造和塑变流的花岗岩和闪长岩的古岩体与金矿关系最为密切,它不仅为成矿提供金等成矿物质和成矿热能,而且是区内金矿脉的直接围岩。经过长期而复杂的构造.岩浆演化,形成石英脉、蚀变岩、糜棱岩等具有剪切带特征的系列金矿床,从北至南可划分出3条金矿成矿带。在预查选区上,框定了从带入手,以带找区,再以区找体的思路。  相似文献

松辽盆地西缘发育大型的北北东走向韧性断裂带,该韧性断裂带的性质、活动时限一直存在争议,制约了对松辽盆地构造成因的认识以及松辽盆地西缘油气勘探开发的进展。腾克、金星及嘎拉山地区是松辽盆地西缘韧性断裂带的代表性出露区,主体岩石组合为条带状花岗质糜棱岩、眼球状花岗质糜棱岩等。腾克、金星及嘎拉山地区发育一组糜棱面理和线理,其中面理为110°~135°∠45°~65°、线理为倾伏向10°~25°,倾伏角10°~35°;其运动性质均显示左行走滑特征。确定韧性断裂带活动时限的样品采自构造带内花岗质糜棱岩的锆石和同变形云母,其中锆石SHRIMP谐和年龄为296.9~299.4 Ma;黑云母40Ar-39Ar年龄为(123.0±0.7)Ma,白云母的40Ar-39Ar年龄为(124.4±0.9)Ma。松辽盆地西缘韧性断裂带应该属于嫩江断裂带的北段。年龄结果表明该韧性断裂带中花岗岩侵位于晚石炭世,大型北北东向韧性构造变形发生于早白垩世。腾克金星嘎拉山剪切带控制松辽盆地西缘,同时表明松辽盆地在早白垩世经历了走滑挤压盆地演化阶段,这种大型北北东向韧性断裂带的形成可能与当时西太平洋伊泽纳崎板块向欧亚大陆俯冲发生转向有关。  相似文献

阿尔金北缘地区韧性剪切带型金矿床构造控矿解析   总被引:17,自引:0,他引:17       下载免费PDF全文
韧性剪切带型金矿是一种成矿机制与控矿因素都与韧性剪切带及其演化密切相关的金矿床类型。阿尔金北缘地区不同层次剪切带发育,金矿床受韧性剪切带控制明显,在区域上,韧性剪切带控制金矿床(点)的分布;在矿床范围内,韧性剪切带及其演化过程中形成的韧脆性剪切带既是唯一的赋(含)矿构造,也对矿化带、矿体的形态、产状、规模及分布起决定性的控制作用;压扭性韧性剪切变形特点决定了金矿化类型以蚀变糜棱岩型为主,交代蚀变作用发育。含矿构造裂隙以P型为主,少量D型和R型,个别为R~1型和T型;构造变形所引发的动力分异作用及其形成的动力变质热液是金矿成矿流体的主要来源之一,这与地球化学和成矿流体包裹体研究显示的大平沟金矿床成矿物质主要来源于变质岩、成矿流体有相当部分来源于变质水的特征相吻合。结合糜棱岩磁组构研究,发现磁各向异性度P值与金元素含量呈负相关关系,说明构造变形早于金矿化蚀变作用,这种时序关系进一步佐证了韧性剪切带型金矿床的成矿模式。即大面积的韧性变形构造动力分异作用形成的含金热液不是就地原位矿化,而是向上迁移并集中到范围比较窄小的韧-脆性或脆性裂隙中才发生金元素富集,最终形成金矿床。  相似文献

There is a large ductile shear zone, 2 km wide and more than 3SO km long, in the South Qilian Mountains, western China. It is composed of volcanic, granitic and calcareous mylonites. The microstructures of the ductile shear zone show nearly E-W extending subvertical foliation, horizontal and oblique stretching lineations, shearing sense from sinis-tral to oblique sinistral strike-slip from east to west, "A" type folds and abundant granitic veins. Measured lattice preferred orientations (LPOs) of the mylonitic and recrystallized quartz of the granitic mylonite in the west segment suggest a strong LPO characterized by the dominant slip systems {1010} formed at high temperature (>650℃). K-feldspar of the mylonite shows an 39Ar/40Ar high-temperature plateau age of 243.3±1.3 Ma, and biotite, 250.5±0.5 Ma, which represent the formation age of the ductile shear zone. The 39Ar/40Ar plateau ages of 169.7±0.3 Ma and 160.6±0.1 Ma and the 39Ar/40Ar isochron ages of 166.99±2.37 Ma and 160.6±0.1 Ma of biot  相似文献

The Freda-Rebecca Mine is currently the largest gold producer in Zimbabwe. The ore deposit is hosted by two main shear systems crosscutting the Rebecca diorite and Bindura granodiorite (2.65 Ga) as well as Shamvaian metasediments, which are affected by contact metamorphism. Following the intrusion of the Bindura granodiorite, intensive hydrothermal alteration developed preferentially in the dioritic part of the igneous complex (Rebecca diorite). The hydrothermal alteration started with an extensive K-dominated hydrothermal metasomatism in the whole Rebecca diorite. It was followed by less penetrative hydrothermal alteration developed preferentially near shear zones and veinlets. Hydrothermal metasomatism caused microcline and biotite formation, prevailing in the Rebecca diorite. Two main stages of post-metasomatic hydrothermal alteration and mineralization were distinguished, based on spatial relationships between different minerals and some geochemical aspects. In the first stage, an actinolite-tourmaline-arsenopyrite mineralization formed, which is characterized by Ni-Co arsenopyrite associated with actinolite, tourmaline and quartz. The second, lower temperature stage gave a polyphase gold-rich mineralization that developed in four phases which are distinguished by different parageneses including: Phase 1. Actinolite, chlorite, clinozoisite/epidote, quartz, calcite, arsenopyrite, pyrite, pyrrhotite, chalcopyrite. Phase 2. Chlorite, epidote, calcite, gold, native Bi, Bi-Pb sulfides, galena, chalcopyrite, fahlore, pyrite, Fe-gersdorffite. Phase 3. Epidote, calcite, (Ni, Co, Fe) As S phases, Co-Fe-gersdorffite. Phase 4. Chlorite, calcite, quartz. The gold mineralization is exclusively associated with phase 2 and developed in three sulfide parageneses: – Gold + Bi-Pb sulfides + bismuth + chalcopyrite + galena, associated with chlorite (Au 1). – Gold + galena + pyrite, associated with calcite and chlorite (Au 2). – Gold + pyrite + Fe-gersdorffite, associated with epidote, chlorite and calcite (Au 3). The hydrothermal alteration and mineralization formed after the consolidation of the Rebecca diorite and Bindura granodiorite, most probably in the postmagmatic cooling stage. The mineralization was emplaced either synchronously or subsequently to the shear zones which crosscut the consolidated pluton. Not all shear zones are mineralized and different shear zones show different amounts of mineralization and hydrothermal alteration. Thus, it is suggested that during the cooling stage of the pluton and subsequent to the formation of the K-metasomatic zone (microcline + biotite), hydrothermal fluids preferentially followed just forming or pre-existing shear zones. It cannot be excluded that this process developed in a plutonic porphyry copper-like environment, in which the classically hydrothermal zonation did not form due to synchronous tectonic disturbance, which preferentially drives the hydrothermal flow along shear zones. Mineral parageneses and data from chlorite geothermometry indicate that the different stages and phases of hydrothermal alteration reflect cooling stages of the hydrothermal system, from >300 °C in the first stage to about 150 °C in the last phases.

The Santa Lucia Shear Zone (SLSZ, Corsica) is a granulite-facies Permian shear zone that developed after the emplacement of a deep-seated gabbroic intrusion. New structural data shows that the SLSZ results from the juxtaposition of three spatially distinct mylonite belts, which are the product of the interaction between magmatism, metamorphism and shearing over a temperature range from ~800 to ~400°C. During the earlier high-grade deformation stage, which was accompanied by decompression from ~7 to ~5 kb at ~800°C, the SLSZ has accommodated high finite strain on a shear zone ≥1 km wide. Strain became increasingly localized as temperature decreased, but rather than reactivating pre-existing shear zones as commonly expected, younger mylonites expanded into previously unsheared rock, extending the total width of the shear zone. The zonation of different fabrics across the SLSZ suggests that pre-existing compositional and grain size heterogeneities in the starting material played a key role in governing superposed generations of shear zones.  相似文献

东五分子地区花岗-绿岩地体经受了三种类型变质作用的改造。韧性剪切带不仅控制了区域变质岩组合的分布,而且也导致其变质作用的强度出现了逆转序列。根据岩石的结构、碎斑含量及矿物成分,韧性剪切变质岩划分为三类,其共同特点是具有碎斑结构。其变形结构分为单矿物型及组合型。同一块韧性剪切变质岩由处在单变平衡的一组矿物组成。根据岩石变形及重结晶的特点,结合其产状,确定出两种不同类型韧性剪切变质带。共生矿物对的研究证明它们形成于地壳不同深度及温度、压力条件。本区的金矿化、运移、沉淀与韧性剪切变质带紧密相关。  相似文献

Granite-hosted,Nb-,Ta-,Sn-,U-,Th-,and Zr(Hf)-bearing mineralization from the Abu Rusheid shear zones occurs about 97 km southwest of the town of Marsa Alam,South Eastern Desert,Egypt.The SSE-trending brittle-ductile Abu Rusheid shear zones crosscut the peralkalic granitic gneisses and cataclastic to mylonitic rocks(mylonite,protomlyonite,and ultramylonite).The northern shear zone varies in width from 1 to 3 m with a strike length of >500 m,and the southern shear zone is 0.5 to 8 m wide and >1 km long.These shear zones locally host less altered lamprophyre and locally sheared granitic aplite-pegmatite dykes.The rare-metal minerals,identified from the peralkalic granitic gneisses and cataclastic to mylonitic rocks are associated with muscovite,chlorite,quartz,fluorite,pyrite,magnetite,and rare biotite that are restricted to the Abu Rusheid shear zones;these are columbite-tantalite and pyrochlore(var.betafite) in the northern shear zone and ferrocolumbite in the southern shear zone.Cassiterite occurs as inclusions in the columbite-tantalite minerals.U-and Th-minerals(uraninite,thorite,uranothorite,ishikawaite,and cheralite) and Hf-rich zircon coexist.Magmatic(?) zircon contains numerous inclusions of rutile,fluorite,U-Th and REE minerals,such as uranothorite,cheralite,monazite,and xenotime.Compositional variations in Ta/(Ta+Nb) and Mn/(Mn+Fe) in columbite range from 0.07-0.42 and 0.04-0.33,respectively,and Hf contents in zircon from 1.92-6.46 of the two mineralized shear zones reflect the extreme degree of magmatic fractionation.Four samples of peralkalic granitic gneisses and cataclastic to mylonitic rocks from the southern shear zone have very low TiO2(0.02 wt%-0.04 wt%),Sr [(15-20)×10-6],and Ba [(47-78)×10-6],with high Fe2O3T(0.94 wt%-1.99 wt%),CaO(0.14 wt%-1.16 wt%),alkalis(9.2 wt%-10.1 wt%),Rb [(369-805)×10-6],Zr [(1033-2261)×10-6],Nb [(371-913)×10-6],U [(51-108)×10-6],Th [(36-110)×10-6],Ta [(38-108)×10-6],Pb [(39-364)×10-6],Zn [(21-424)×10-6],Y [(8-304)×10-6],Hf [(29-157)×10-6],and ∑REE [(64-304)×10-6],especially HREE [(46-167)×10-6].Three samples from the northern shear zone also have very low TiO2(0.03 wt%),Sr [(11-16)×10-6],and Ba [(38-47)×10-6],with high Fe2O3T(1.97 wt%-2.91 wt%),CaO(0.49 wt%-1.01 wt%),alkalis(7.2 wt%-8.3 wt%),Rb [(932-978)×10-6],Zr [(1707-1953)×10-6],Nb [(853-981)×10-6],Ta [(100-112)×10-6],U [(120-752)×10-6],Th [(121-164)×10-6],Pb [(260-2198)×10-6],Zn [(483-1140)×10-6],Y [(8-304)×10-6],Hf [(67-106)×10-6],and ∑REE [(110-231)×10-6],especially HREE [(91-177)×10-6].The very high Rb/Sr(57.5-88.9),and low Zr/Hf(16.9-25.6),Nb/Ta(7.7-9.8),and Th/U(0.21-1.01) are consistent with very frac-tionated fluorine-bearing granitic rocks that were altered and sheared.The field evidence,textural relations,and compositions of the ore minerals suggest that the main mineralizing event was magmatic(629+/-5 Ma,CHIME monazite),with later hydrothermal alteration and local remobilization of the high-field-strength elements.  相似文献

托莫尔日特金矿区韧脆性剪切带及其控矿作用   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
矿区位于近NW-NWW向展布的断裂带内,并严格受其控制.控矿断裂带为一条韧-脆性剪切带,其形成主要经历了早期韧性变形、晚期脆性变形及后期改造破坏3个阶段,叠加于早期韧性剪切带之上的晚期脆性破裂带,是矿脉的主要产出位置,成矿与断裂带的韧-脆性转换密切相关.矿体形成于韧-脆性剪切带的转换带附近,后期由于抬升剥蚀而出露地表.矿体分布可能具有"两层楼"式的垂直分带,上部为石英脉型金矿体,品位较高,但规模不大;下部为糜棱岩型金矿体,规模较大,但品位稍低.因此本区以后的找矿工作中应注意挖掘深部糜棱岩型金矿的潜力.  相似文献

The development of 10–30  m wide mylonite zones at mid-crustal depths in late Proterozoic granitoids on King Island, Tasmania, was associated with pervasive infiltration of low δ18O-fluids (+5 to +7) on the scale of the shear zones. Syndeformational fluid–rock interaction produced substantial differences in mineral composition and bulk rock chemistry among several adjacent shear zones which are hosted by the same granite. In a shear zone at Cape Wickham with a normal slip component, changes in whole-rock chemistry between granite and mylonites indicate a gain of Ca, and losses of K and Na during deformation, which was nearly isovolumetric. Notable losses of K, Rb and Si occurred during partial retrograde alteration of mylonites near the western margin of this shear zone. The alteration suggests a component of up-temperature fluid flow. In contrast, 3  km to the south east, in a strike-slip shear zone at Disappointment Bay, complete albitization of plagioclase was associated with Na-gain and Ca-loss. Deformation also involved losses of Mg and Fe. Up to 60% volume gain occurred during the formation of closely spaced mesoscopic to microscopic quartz veins during mylonitization. The substantial silica-gain in this, as well as in two mylonite zones further south east, is interpreted to have been associated with upward flow of aqueous fluids along these shear zones. On the basis of a gradient reaction model, minimum time-integrated fluid-fluxes of 106  m3/m2 are estimated for the Disappointment Bay (West) Shear Zone.  相似文献
