The heat capacity of synthetic anhydrous Mg and Fe cordierite was measured by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Mg cordierite was synthesized from a glass at high temperatures and shows an ordered structural state. Fe cordierite was synthesized hydrothermally and dehydrated under reducing conditions to obtain H2O-free material. IR spectroscopy was used to ascertain the lack of H2O in both phases. The molar volume of both phases was measured using powder X-ray diffraction giving 23.316 (7) J/bar for Mg cordierite and 23.672 (6) J/bar for Fe cordierite. DSC measurements between 300 and 950 K were made following the procedure of Bosenick et al. (1996). The data show a precision of about 1% in the case of Mg cordierite and 1.5% for Fe cordierite. Fitted Cp polynomials in J/mol/K are:
and
for Mg and Fe cordierite, respectively. The Cp values determined for Mg cordierite are slightly larger (1–3%) than those measured by drop calorimetry by Pankratz and Kelley (1963). The Cp data for Fe cordierite permit the calculation of its standard third-law entropy, So 298 K from the reaction 3Fe cordierite=2 almandine + 4 sillimanite + 5 quartz giving 465 J/mol/K, which is in good agreement with recent model estimates.

The Fe3+/Fetot of all Fe-bearing minerals has been analysed by Mössbauer spectroscopy in a suite of biotite-rich to biotite-free graphitic metapelite xenoliths, proxies of an amphibolite-granulite transition through progressive biotite melting. Biotite contains 9 to 16% Fe3+/Fetot, whereas garnet, cordierite and ilmenite are virtually Fe3+ -free (0–1% Fe3+/Fetot) in all samples, regardless of biotite presence. Under relatively reducing conditions (graphite-bearing assemblages), biotite is the only carrier of Fe3+ during high-temperature metamorphism; therefore, its disappearance by melting represents an important event of iron reduction during granulite formation, because haplogranitic melts usually incorporate small amounts of ferric iron. Iron reduction is accompanied by the oxidation of carbon and the production of CO2, according to the redox reaction:
Depending on the nature of the peritectic Fe-Mg mineral produced (garnet, cordierite, orthopyroxene), the CO2 can either be present as a free fluid component, or be completely stored within melt and cordierite. The oxidation of graphite by iron reduction can account for the in situ generation of CO2, implying a consequential rather than causal role of CO2 in some granulites and migmatites. This genetic model is relevant to graphitic rocks more generally and may explain why CO2 is present in some granulites although it is not required for their formation.  相似文献

Pressure-temperature conditions of metamorphism in the Yanai district, Ryoke belt, SW Japan, have been determined using garnet-biotite thermometry in combination with an empirically calibrated barometer in the assemblage common in pelitic and siliceous rocks, garnet + biotite + plagioclase + quartz. The barometer estimates pressure difference between a well-established sample and unknown samples based on the reaction,
Pressure and pressure gradient increased with increasing temperature such that pressures of high-grade areas exceeded that of the triple point of aluminosilicates. The thermobaric structure of the study area shows that pressure increased up to 5 kbar with southward increase in metamorphic temperature up to the highest-grade area, the garnet-cordierite zone. Further south, pressure was almost the same as that of the garnet-cordierite zone and temperature decreased. This asymmetric distribution of metamorphic conditions on both sides of the garnet-cordierite zone can explain the asymmetric distribution of metamorphic zones; the K-feldspar-cordierite zone and sillimanite-K-feldspar zone on the north and south sides of the garnet-cordierite zone, respectively. The breakdown reaction of muscovite and quartz defines the beginning of both the K-feldspar-cordierite zone and sillimanite-K-feldspar zone, which took place under low and high pressures, respectively. These thermobaric structures suggest that temperature varied laterally at mid-crustal level during the peak of metamorphism.Editorial Responsibility: T.L. Grove  相似文献

Using the model of fictive ideal components, Gibbs free energies of formation of pyrope and Al2O3-enstatite have been determined from the experimental data on coexisting garnet and orthopyroxene and orthopyroxene and spinel in the temperature range of 1200–1600 K. The negative free energies in kJ/mol are:

The authors report a redox profile based on Mössbauer data of spinel and garnet to a depth of 210 km from mantle xenoliths of the northern (N) and southeastern (SE) Slave craton (northern Canada). The profile transects three depth facies of peridotites that form segments of different bulk composition, represented by spinel peridotite, spinel–garnet peridotite, low-temperature garnet peridotite, high-temperature garnet peridotite, and pyroxenite. The shallow, more depleted N Slave spinel peridotite records lower oxygen fugacities compared to the deeper, less depleted N Slave spinel–garnet peridotite, consistent with their different spinel Fe3+ concentrations. Garnet peridotites show a general reduction in log fO2 (FMQ)s with depth, where values for garnet peridotites are lower than those for spinel–garnet peridotites. There is a strong correlation between depletion and oxygen fugacity in the spinel peridotite facies, but little correlation in the garnet peridotite facies. The strong decrease in log fO2 (FMQ) with depth that arises from the smaller partial molar volume of Fe3+ in garnet, and the observation of distinct slopes of log fO2 (FMQ) with depth for spinel peridotite compared to spinel–garnet peridotite strongly suggest that oxygen fugacity in the cratonic peridotitic mantle is intrinsically controlled by iron equilibria involving garnet and spinel.

Experiments have been carried out on a metagreywacke at 800, 850 and 900°C, in the pressure range 0.5–5 GPa to locate the solidus and the eclogite/amphibolite facies transition in felsic rocks, identify the nature of the reactions responsible for major mineralogical changes, and determine the proportions of phases as a function of pressure. The mineral assemblage phengite + clinopyroxene + garnet + quartz/coesite is stable above 2.3 GPa while biotite + plagioclase + garnet + quartz is stable below 2 GPa. The model reaction for the eclogite/amphibolite facies transition in metagreywackes is:
with melt on the low pressure–high temperature side of the reaction. The modal proportion and calcium content of garnet change with pressure. Both decrease from 5 to 2.5 GPa, then increase at the eclogite/amphibolite facies transition, and finally decrease with decreasing pressure below 2.3 GPa. The grossular content in garnet is thus a potential marker of the eclogite/amphibolite facies transition during retrogression. The modal proportion of melt progressively increases with decreasing pressure from 5 to 2.5 GPa, then shows a sudden and marked increase between 2.5 and 2.3 GPa, and finally decreases between 2.3 and 1 GPa. Thus, a melting pulse occurs at the eclogite/amphibolite facies transition during decompression of subducted continental crust. A survey of the main UHP metamorphic regions and the P–T paths followed during their geotectonic history indicates that partial melting may have played a role during their exhumation. A striking feature of retrogressed UHP felsic rocks is that garnet rims are commonly enriched in grossular. Our experiments explain this observation and demonstrate that a grossular-rich growth zone in garnet is not necessarily indicative of highest pressures reached during metamorphism but may correspond to a decompression stage.

Chad has an area of about 1.2 million km2, is located in the centreof the African continent and is not well explored. Results of importance to the local economic geology have been acquired recently, mainly during mineral exploration:
  • 1. 
    i) all geological formations within Chad territory were reworked/influenced by the Pan-African Orogeny (by the end of the Proterozoic) terminating the crustal evolution of the area with most of the Chad granitoids being formed during this event;
  • 2. 
    ii) The Precambrian formations are of Proterozoic age and contain volcanosedimentary series with considerable mineral potential (Au,…);
  • 3. 
    iii) the vast Chad Basin (extending into neighbouring countries) has a complex structure and includes several sub-basins and troughs, whose development started during the break-up of Gondwana; they have been filled by up to 10, 000 m of sediments and petroleum and gas occur within these structures;
  • 4. 
    iv) well preserved fossil remnants of an Australopithecus have been recently found in Chad; and
  • 5. 
    v) large reserves of oil and vaste resources of a variety of minerals (Au, ornamental stones, marbles, diatomites, etc.) have been found.

Meta-graywacke and meta-argillite of Archean age near Yellowknife contain biotite, cordierite, gedrite and sillimanite isograds towards the Sparrow Lake granite pluton. The chemistry of biotite, cordierite, gedrite and garnet in rocks that up-grade from the cordierite isograd indicate a small range of chemical composition, particularly with reference to Mg, Fe and Mn. The analyses show further that among the coexisting ferromagnesian minerals Fe/Fe+ Mg ratio decreases in the sequence: garnet, gedrite, biotite, cordierite while Mn/Fe+Mg+Mn ratio decreases in the sequence garnet, gedrite, cordierite, biotite. The same order is also observed in the distribution diagrams. The regular distribution of Mg, Fe and Mn among the coexisting phases demonstrate that chemical equilibrium was attained and preserved in these Archean rocks. Mg-Fe distribution between cordierite and biotite appears to be dependent on the temperature of crystallization or metamorphic grade.  相似文献

Dissolution Kinetics of Dolomite in Water at Elevated Temperatures   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Kinetic experiments of dolomite dissolution in water over a temperature range from 25 to 250°C were performed using a flow through packed bed reactor. Authors chose three different size fractions of dolomite samples: 18–35 mesh, 35–60 mesh, and 60–80 mesh. The dissolution rates of the three particle size samples of dolomite were measured. The dissolution rate values are changed with the variation of grain size of the sample. For the sample through 20–40 mesh, both the release rate of Ca and the release rate of Mg increase with increasing temperature until 200°C, then decrease with continued increasing temperature. Its maximum dissolution rate occurs at 200°C. The maximum dissolution rates for the sample through 40–60 mesh and 60–80 mesh happen at 100°C. Experimental results indicate that the dissolution of dolomite is incongruent in most cases. Dissolution of fresh dolomite was non-stoichiometric, the Ca/Mg ratio released to solution was greater than in the bulk solid, and the ratio increases with rising temperatures from 25 to 250°C. Observations on dolomite dissolution in water are presented as three parallel reactions, and each reaction occurs in consecutive steps as
where the second part is a slow reaction, and also the reaction could occur as follows:
The following rate equation was used to describe dolomite dissolution kinetics

The experiments prove that dissolved Ca is a strong inhibitor for dolomite dissolution (release of Ca) in most cases. Dissolved Mg was found to be an inhibitor for dolomite dissolution at low temperatures. But dissolution rates of dolomite increase with increasing the concentration of dissolved Mg in the temperature range of 200–250°C for 20–40 mesh sample, and in the temperature range of 100–250°C for 40–80 mesh sample, whereas the Mg2+ ion adsorption on dolomite surface becomes progressively the step controlling reaction. The following rate equation is suitable to dolomite dissolutions at high temperatures from 200 to 250°C.

Analysis of mineral assemblages and illite crystallinity of the Arganan Triassic formations show that:
  • 1. 
    i) mixed-layers are present across almost all of the section; and
  • 2. 
    ii) values of illite crystallinity are quite dispersed and lie mostly in the diagenetic zone, with no gradient related to burial.
It is therefore concluded that, contrary to ideas proposed recently, there is no evidence for very low-grade metamorphism related to crustal thinning during the early rifting of the Central Atlantic. Fluctuations of illite crystallinity values are interpreted as due to complex interactions of detrital heritage and several factors governing illitization and improvement of illite crystallinity. The increase in temperature during burial constitutes only one of them.  相似文献

 A pronounced negative correlation between the yttrium concentration in garnet ([Y]Grt) and temperature has been observed in xenotime (YPO4)-bearing metapelites from central New England, USA. The [Y]Grt decreases roughly two orders of magnitude (∼5500 to less than 100 ppm Y) over a 150 °C interval. A regression of ln([Y]Grt) against estimated reciprocal temperature yields the following relationship:

In pelitic rocks, under conditions of low f O 2 and low f H 2 O, the stability of the mineral pair cordierite-garnet is limited by five univariant reactions. In sequence from high pressure and low temperature to high temperature and low pressure these are: cordierite+garnet hypersthene+sillimanite+quartz, cordierite+garnet hypersthene+sapphirine+quartz, cordierite+garnet hypersthene+spinel+quartz and cordierite+garnet olivine+spinel +quartz. In this sequence of reactions the Mg/Mg+Fe2+ ratio of all ferro-magnesian minerals involved decreases continuously from the first reaction to the fifth. The five univariant boundaries delimit a wide P-T range over which cordierite and garnet may coexist.Two divariant equilibria in which the Mg/Mg+ Fe2+ ratio of the coexisting phases are uniquely determined by pressure and temperature have been studied in detail. P-T-X grids for the reactions cordierite garnet+sillimanite+quartz and cordierite+hypersthene garnet+quartz are used to obtain pressure-temperature estimates for several high grade metamorphic areas. The results suggest temperatures of formation of 700–850° C and load pressures of 5–10 kb. In rare occasions temperatures of 950–1000° C appear to have been reached during granulite metamorphism.On the basis of melting experiments in pelitic compositions it is suggested that Ca-poor garnet xenocrysts found in calc-alkaline magmas derive from admixed pelitic rocks and did not equilibrate with the calc-alkaline magma.  相似文献

The chemical potential of oxygen (µO2) in equilibrium with magnesiowüstite solid solution (Mg, Fe)O and metallic Fe has been determined by gas-mixing experiments at 1,473 K supplemented by solid-cell EMF experiments at lower temperatures. The results give:
where IW refers to the Fe-"FeO" equilibrium. The previous work of Srecec et al. (1987) and Wiser and Wood (1991) agree well with this equation, as does that of Hahn and Muan (1962) when their reported compositions are corrected to a new calibration curve for lattice parameter vs. composition. The amount of Fe3+ in the magnesiowüstite solid solution in equilibrium with Fe metal was determined by Mössbauer spectroscopy on selected samples. These data were combined with literature data from gravimetric studies and fitted to a semi-empirical equation:
These results were then used to reassess the activity-composition relations in (Mg, Fe)2SiO4 olivine solid solutions at 1,400 K, from the partitioning of Mg and Fe2+ between olivine and magnesiowüstite in equilibrium with metallic Fe experimentally determined by Wiser and Wood (1991). The olivine solid solution is constrained to be nearly symmetric with , with a probable uncertainty of less than ±0.5 kJ/mol (one standard deviation). The results also provide a useful constraint on the free energy of formation of Mg2SiO4.Editorial responsibility: B. Collins  相似文献

The density ρ of Caspian Sea waters was measured as a function of temperature (273.15–343.15) K at conductivity salinities of 7.8 and 11.3 using the Anton-Paar Densitometer. Measurements were also made on one of the samples (S = 11.38) diluted with water as a function of temperature (T = 273.15–338.15 K) and salinity (2.5–11.3). These latter results have been used to develop an equation of state for the Caspian Sea (σ = ±0.007 kg m−3)
where ρ0 is the density of water and the parameters A, B and C are given by
Measurements of the density of artificial Caspian Sea water at 298.15 K agree to ± 0.012 kg m−3 with the real samples. These results indicate that the composition of Caspian Sea waters must be close to earlier measurements of the major components. Model calculations based on this composition yield densities that agree with the measured values to ± 0.012 kg m−3. The new density measurements are higher than earlier measurements. This may be related to a higher concentration of dissolved organic carbon found in the present samples (500 μM) which is much higher than the values in ocean waters (~65 μM).  相似文献

This study has examined the ~300 MPa partial melting behaviour of four metapelites collected from the highest grade rocks occurring below the anatectic zone of the Mt. Stafford area, Arunta Inlier, central Australia. In this area, metasediments are interpreted to have undergone partial melting within the andalusite stability field; possibly as a result of a lowering of the metapelite solidus by the presence of boron in the rocks. Two of the samples were two mica metapelites (MTS70 and MTS71). These both contained significant quantities of tourmaline and were thus boron enriched. The other two samples are biotite metapelites. One of these rocks contains only a trace of tourmaline (MTS8) and the other is tourmaline free (MTS7). Despite expectations that muscovite in the two mica samples would break down via a subsolidus reaction, muscovite was stable to above 750°C due to the incorporation of Ti, phengitic and possibly F components into its structure. Between 750 and 800°C, muscovite melted out completely via a coupled muscovite + biotite fluid-absent incongruent reaction. Tourmaline was partially consumed in this reaction, with the elbaitic component being preferentially consumed. In the most mica-rich sample this reaction produced ~60% melt at 800°C. In the biotite metapelites, biotite melting began at a temperature below 800°C and was accompanied by very modest melt production at this low temperature. In contrast to the two mica metapelites, the main pulse of melt production in these samples occurred at a temperature between 850 and 950°C. In both these samples biotite + melt coexisted over a temperature range in excess of 150°C, and in MTS8, biotite was still in the run products at 950°C. The very refractory nature of these evolved biotite compositions is most likely a consequence of both the presence of a Ti buffering phase in the assemblage (ilmenite) and the essentially plagioclase-free nature of the starting compositions. Under the fluid-absent conditions of this study, tourmaline is clearly a reactant in the partial melting process, but does not appear to shift the fluid-absent incongruent melting reactions markedly. In the tourmaline-rich two mica metapelites, tourmaline only disappears from the run products at a temperature above 850°C, where it coexisted with a substantial melt proportion. This appears to coincide with the point of maximum boron concentration in the melts.

Commonly used thermometer and barometer calibrations are sensitive to mineral assemblage and, thus, bulk-rock composition. Calculated mineral stabilities for an average pelitic rock over a pressure–temperature (PT) range appropriate for normal, thickened, heated and shallowly subducted continental crust (400–900°C at 0.1–3.0 GPa) reveal more than one hundred possible assemblages. Individual phase compositions are dependent on the assemblage in which they belong and combining isopleth sets to represent and reveals several PT-ranges where commonly used mineral thermobarometers are less effective. For example, the garnet-biotite thermometer becomes increasingly P dependent in the absence of muscovite in high T melt-bearing assemblages, and biotite and plagioclase are not stable at pressures appropriate for lower thickened continental crust. Compositional thermobarometers involving equilibration between alternative phases (namely garnet, phengite and omphacite) are presented. Although the equilibrium compositions of phases at any P and T may change significantly as a function of bulk-rock composition, compositional-ratio thermobarometers are typically insensitive to this, unless a pseudo-univariant reaction is crossed and the buffering assemblage is altered. Quantification of the limits of efficacy of various thermobarometers allows the mineralogy of metapelites to be used to precisely determine segments of PT paths and infer their likely tectonic controls.

Experimental clinopyroxenes synthesized at 850–1500 °C and 0–60 kbar in the CMS and CMAS-Cr systems and in more complex lherzolitic systems have been used to calibrate a Cr-in-Cpx barometer and an enstatite-in-Cpx thermometer for Cr-diopsides derived from garnet peridotites. The experiments cover a wide range of possible natural peridotitic compositions, from fertile pyrolite to refractory, high-Cr lherzolite. The barometer is based on the Cr exchange between clinopyroxene and garnet. Pressure is formulated as a function of temperature and clinopyroxene composition:
where a CaCrTs Cpx=Cr−0.81·Cr#·(Na+K) and Cr#= , with elements in atoms per 6 oxygens. This formulation reproduces the experimental pressures to ±2.3 kbar (1σ) and has a temperature dependence (1.2–2.4 kbar/50 °C, varying with composition) that is weaker than that of the widely used Al-in-Opx barometer (2–3 kbar/50 °C). The enstatite-in-Cpx thermometer includes corrections for the effect of minor components and is formulated as
where K)). The thermometer reproduces the experimental temperatures to ±30 °C (1σ). The uncertainties of the present formulations are comparable to, or better than, those of the most widely used thermobarometers for garnet peridotites. P-T estimates obtained for diamond-bearing and graphite-bearing lherzolite xenoliths and peridotitic clinopyroxene inclusions in kimberlitic and lamproitic diamonds confirm the reliability of the thermobarometer. Cr-diopside thermobarometry appears to be a potential tool for obtaining information on the thermal state of the upper mantle and the extent of mantle sampling by deep-seated magmas. We consider the Cr-in-Cpx barometer to be the best alternative to the Al-in-Opx barometer for the evaluation of pressure conditions of equilibration of natural garnet lherzolites. P-T conditions of equilibration can be directly retrieved from the composition of Cr-diopside alone, thus allowing application to partially altered xenoliths, inclusions in diamonds, and loose grains from sediments. We foresee application of the present thermobarometer to evaluation of the diamond potential of kimberlite and lamproite provinces and in diamond exploration where Cr-diopside from deep mantle sources is preserved in the surficial weathering environment.
