The Parnok ferromanganese deposit is confined to the black shales of the western slope of the Polar Urals. The deposit area is made up of weakly metamorphosed terrigenous-carbonate rocks formed in a marine basin at a passive continental margin. Ore-bearing sequence is composed of coaliferous clayey-siliceous-calcareous shales comprising beds and lenses of pelitomorphic limestones, and iron and manganese ores. The iron ores practically completely consist of micrograined massive magnetite. The manganese ores are represented by lenticular-bedded rocks consisting of hausmannite, rhodochrosite, and diverse manganese silicates. With respect to relations between indicator elements (Fe, Mn, Al, Ti), the shales are ascribed to pelagic sediments with normal concentrations of Fe and Mn, the limestones correspond to metalliferous sediments, ferruginous sediments are ore-bearing sediments, while manganese rocks occupy an intermediate position. It was found that the concentrations of trace elements typical of submarine hydrothermal solutions (As, Ge, Ni, Pb, Sb, Zn, etc.) in both the ore types are in excess of those in lithogenic component. At the same time, the indicator elements of terrigenous material (Al, Ti, Hf, Nb, Th, Zr, and others) in the ores are several times lower than those in the host shales (background sediments). REE distribution patterns in iron ores show the positive Eu anomaly, while those in manganese ores, the positive Ce anomaly. In general, the chemical composition of the ores indicates their formation in the hydrothermal discharge zone. The peculiar feature of the studied object is the manifestation of hydrothermal vents in sedimentary basin without evident signs of volcanic activity. Hydrothermal solutions were formed in terrigenous-carbonate sequence mainly at the expense of buried sedimentation waters. The hydrothermal system was likely activated by rejuvenation of tectonic and magmatic processes at the basement of sedimentary sequences. Solutions leached iron, manganese, and other elements from sedimentary rocks and transported them to the seafloor. Their discharge occurred in relatively closed marine basin under intermittent anaerobic conditions. Eh-pH variations led to the differentiation of Fe and Mn and accumulation of chemically contrasting ore-bearing sediments.  相似文献

The paper presents the results of study of ferromanganese carbonate rocks in the Sob area (Polar Urals), which is located between the Rai-Iz massif and the Seida–Labytnangi Railway branch. These rocks represent low-metamorphosed sedimentary rocks confined to the Devonian carbonaceous siliceous and clayey–siliceous shales. In terms of ratio of the major minerals, ferromanganese rocks can be divided into three varieties composed of the following minerals: (1) siderite, rhodochrosite, chamosite, quartz, ± kutnahorite, ± calcite, ± magnetite, ± pyrite, ± clinochlore, ± stilpnomelane; (2) spessartite, rhodochrosite, and quartz, ± hematite, ± chamosite; (3) rhodochrosite, spessartite, pyroxmanite, quartz ± tephroite, ± fridelite, ± clinochlore, ± pyrophanite, ± pyrite. In all varieties, the major concentrators of Mn and Fe are carbonates (rhodochrosite, siderite, kutnahorite, Mn-calcite) and chlorite group minerals (clinochlore, chamosite). The chemical composition of rocks is dominated by Si, Fe, Mn, carbon dioxide, and water (L.O.I.): total SiO2 + Fe2O 3 tot + MnO + L.O.I. = 85.6?98.4 wt %. The content of Fe and Mn varies from 9.3 to 55.6 wt % (Fe2O 3 tot + MnO). The Mn/Fe ratio varies from 0.2 to 55.3. In terms of the aluminum module AlM = Al/(Al + Mn + Fe), the major portion of studied samples corresponds to metalliferous sediments. The δ13Ccarb range (–30.4 to–11.9‰ PDB) corresponds to authigenic carbonates formed with carbon dioxide released during the microbial oxidation of organic matter in sediments at the dia- and/or catagenetic stage. Ferromanganese sediments were likely deposited in relatively closed seafloor zones (basin-traps) characterized by periodic stagnation. Fe and Mn could be delivered from various sources: input by diverse hydrothermal solutions, silt waters in the course of diagenesis, river discharges, and others. The diagenetic delivery of metals seems to be most plausible. Mn was concentrated during the stagnation of bottom water in basin-traps. Interruption of stagnation promoted the precipitation of Mn. The presence of organic matter fostered a reductive pattern of postsedimentary transformations of metalliferous sediments. Fe and Mn were accumulated initially in the oxide form. During the diagenesis, manganese and iron oxides reacted with organic matter to make up carbonates. Relative to manganese carbonates, iron carbonates were formed under more reductive settings and higher concentrations of carbon dioxide in the interstitial solution. Crystallization of manganese and iron silicates began already at early stages of lithogenesis and ended during the regional metamorphism of metalliferous sediments.  相似文献

The results of investigation of the Bikkulovskoe manganese deposit confined to volcanosedimentary piles of the Magnitogorsk paleovolcanic belt are presented. The paper characterizes the geological setting of the deposit and mineral-chemical compositions of ores and enclosing rocks (volcanomictic sandstones; ferruginous, manganiferous, and ferruginous-siliceous tuffites; and jasperites). Analysis of the data obtained made it possible to identify four sequential stages of deposit formation: (1) accumulation and diagenesis of ore-bearing sequences (D2–3); (2) burial and low-grade (T = 200–250°C, P = 2 to 3 kbar) regional metamorphism of rocks (D2–3-C1); (3) tectonic deformations of volcanosedimentary piles (C2-P); and (4) hypergenesis and partial denudation of rocks (MZ-CZ). According to the model proposed for the accumulation of ore-bearing rocks, the productive member was formed in a zone of hydrothermal solution outflow to the seafloor surface. Discharge of solutions and precipitation of Fe and Si began below the seafloor surface (rather than above the surface) in the near-bottom sequence of volcanomictic sediments. Upon reaching the seafloor, the impoverished solutions mixed with seawater and gave up metals completely: Fe and Mn were transferred to sediments to make up the ore-bearing bed. Thus, zonal sediments with ferruginous tuffites at the base and manganese ores at the top were formed.  相似文献

In depressions of the Baltic Sea, where the bottom is periodically marked by stagnation, silt contains as much as 5% Mn (up to 17% in some layers) and 9–10% Corg. Silt in such depressions is laminated. The marine sediment sequence is stratified due to the influx of oceanic water into sea: the upper layers are oxic, while the lower (near-bottom) layers are hydrosulfuric. Boundary between them is represented by the transitional O2-H2S layer. This zone (redox barrier) is marked by drastic variation in Eh. Zone below this barrier is characterized by the accumulation of huge amounts of the dissolved manganese (Mn2+) and iron (Fe2+), which diffuse from the hydrosulfuric layer into the oxic layer under the influence of gradient and precipitated as suspeusion with as much as 15% Fe and 45% Mn. When fresh oxygenated saline water is transported to depressions, the hydrosulfuric setting gives way to oxic one and the dissolved elements are transformed into the particulate phases as hydroxides and geologically instantly precipitated at the bottom. After 5–10 yr, the setting changes; hydrogen sulfide is again delivered to water column from the bottom. This is accompanied by supply of the dissolved Mn2+ and Fe2+ previously accumulated as gel-type sediment at the bottom. Thus, the cycle of elements is repeated. The latter, however, is not completely dissolved. Some portion remains at the bottom as black rhodochrosite microlayers (laminas) that contain as much as 29% Mn. The black laminas accumulated during aeration include remains of bottom foraminifers. In addition, the bottom comprises pale diatom laminas and brownish gray varieties composed of clayey and organic substances. Bulk samples of the laminated silt contain as much as 12.9% Mn or 26.9% MnCO3. Depressions in the Baltic Sea represent a unique site of the Earth marked by accumulation of the carbonate-manganiferous sediments at present. We believe that Oligocene manganese carbonate-oxide ores described by N.M. Strakhov and coauthors were accumulated in the same manner. Compositions of manganiferous sediments in the Baltic region and some ancient ores in Europe are compared. The author studied five stages of Mn accumulation and sediment transformation into ores.  相似文献

The results of isotope-geochemical studies of carbonates of different mineral types from manganese and host rocks of the Famennian manganiferous formation of Pai-Khoi are reported. Kutnahorite ores are characterized by δ13C values from–6.6 to 1.3‰ and δ18O from 20.0 to 27.4‰. Rhodonite–rhodochrosite rocks of the Silovayakha ore occurrence have δ13C from–5.2 to–2.9 and δ18O from 25.4 to 24.3‰. Mineralogically similar rocks of the Nadeiyakha ore occurrence show the lighter carbon and oxygen isotopic compositions: δ13C from–16.4 to–13.1 and δ18O from 24.8 to 22.5‰. Similar isotopic compositions were also obtained for rhodochrosite–kutnahorite rocks of this ore occurrence: δ13C from–13.0 to–10.4‰ and δ18O from 24.6 to 21.7‰. Siderorodochrosite ores differ in the lighter oxygen and carbon isotopic compositions: δ18O from 18.7 to 17.6‰ and δ13C from–10.2 to–9.3‰, respectively. In terms of the carbon and oxygen isotopic compositions, host rocks in general correspond to marine sedimentary carbonates. Geological-mineralogical and isotope data indicate that the formation of the manganese carbonates was related to the hydrothermal ore-bearing fluids with the light isotopic composition of oxygen and carbon dissolved in CO2. The isotopic features indicate an authigenic formation of manganese carbonates under different isotopegeochemical conditions.  相似文献

The environmental conditions that prevailed during the formation of the Rohtas carbonates have been delineated on the basis of the Eh-pH diagrams for V, Mn, Fe+2 and Fe+3 compounds. The high content of vanadium in the insoluble residue is indicative of the prevalence of reducing environment. During early-diagenesis manganese seems to have been mobilised from the soft sediments. Higher manganese content in the carbonates is a result of late-diagenesis. Prior to late diagenesis, ferric iron appears to have been precipitated from the waters while manganese remained in solution, and this process accounts for the low iron content of the carbonates.  相似文献

The carbon and oxygen isotopic compositions in rocks and ores of the Ulutelyak (Bashkortostan) manganese deposit of the Lower Permian (P1kg) are studied. Values of ??13C, ?? (PDB) and ??18O, ?? (SMOW) show the following range: from ?3.8 to 3.3 and from 22.0 to 29.6, respectively, in manganese oxide-carbonate ores; from 2.7 to 4.1 and from 28.8 to 29.7, respectively, in non-ore carbonate-clayey interbeds of the ore member; and from 2.8 to 4.5 and from 29.5 to 30.0, respectively, in the underlying and overlying limestones. Lithological features and isotope data suggest that manganese carbonates were formed at the postsedimentary stage of rock transformation due to metasomatic replacement of the primary cyanobacterial sedimentary carbonates by the elisional manganiferous solutions.  相似文献

黑色泥岩盆地内的菱锰矿矿床中常伴生大量黄铁矿,由于菱锰矿和黄铁矿的沉积过程难以直接观察,铁锰的富集关系尚不明确。为了探讨二者的相互关系,以黔东北西溪堡锰矿的典型剖面为例,根据岩石薄片、TOC分析和元素分析等手段,分析了含锰岩系及其顶底板的岩性序列、矿物组合和铁锰地球化学特征,与现代沉积的菱锰矿进行了对比分析。研究表明,在黄铁矿和菱锰矿富集关系上,西溪堡锰矿与现代波罗的海具有类似特征。含锰岩系顶板和底板的锰含量较低;含锰岩系内部的Mn含量波动很大,与铁含量呈负相关。黄铁矿和菱锰矿的沉淀析出具有先后顺序,通常黄铁矿从溶液中析出在先,菱锰矿沉淀在后。  相似文献

The Nanhuan manganese deposits in the southeastern Yangtze Platform occur in the black shale series in the lower part of the Datangpo Formation. In order to constrain the genesis of the deposits, a detailed study was undertaken that involved field observations, major and trace element analyses, organic carbon analyses, and isotope analyses (C, O, S). The major findings are as follows. (1) The ore-bearing rock series, morphology of the ore bodies, and characteristics of ores in several deposits are similar. The ore minerals are rhodochrosite and manganocalcite. The gangue minerals are mainly quartz, feldspar, dolomite, and illite. Minor apatite and bastnaesite occur in the manganese ores. (2) The ores are enriched in Ca and Mg, whereas they are depleted in Si, Al, K, and Ti compared to wall rocks. The ores normalized to average Post-Archean Australian shale (PAAS) are enriched in Co, Mo, and Sr. The chondrite-normalized rare earth element (REE) patterns for ores and wall rocks are between those of typical hydrogenous and hydrothermal type manganese deposits. Additionally, the ores have positive Ce anomalies with an average Ce/Ce* of 1.23 and positive Eu anomalies with an average Eu/Eu* of 1.18 (normalized to PAAS). (3) The average content of organic carbon is 2.21% in the samples, and the average organic carbon isotopic value (δ13CV-PDB) is − 33.44‰. The average inorganic carbon isotopic value (δ13CV-PDB) of carbonates in Gucheng is − 3.07‰, while the values are similar in the other deposits with an average of − 8.36‰. The oxygen isotopic compositions (δ18OV-PDB) are similar in different deposits with an average of − 7.72‰. (4) The sulfur isotopic values (δ34SV-CDT) of pyrite are very high and range from + 37.9‰ to + 62.6‰ (average of 52.7‰), which suggests that the pyrite was formed in restricted basins where sulfate replenishment was limited. The sulfate concentrations in the restricted basins were extremely low and enriched in δ34S, which resulted in the very high δ34S values for the pyrite that formed in the manganese deposits. Therefore, a terrigenous weathering origin for manganese can be excluded; otherwise, the sulfate would have been introduced into the basins together with terrigenous manganese, which would have decreased the δ34S values of pyrites. The manganese, which originated from hydrothermal processes, was enriched in the restricted and anoxic basins, and then, it was oxidized to manganese oxyhydroxide in the overlying oxic waters whereby the products precipitated into the sediments. The manganese oxyhydroxide in the sediment was then reduced to Mn2 + and released to the pore waters during the process of diagenesis. Some organic carbon was oxidized to CO32 −, which made the depletion of 13C in manganese carbonates. Therefore, we suggest that the Nanhuan manganese deposits are hydrothermal–sedimentary/diagenetic type deposits.  相似文献

The Sjögruvan deposit is one of the Långban-type Fe-Mn oxide deposits hosted by marble interbeds within Svecofennian metavolcanic rocks in the Bergslagen region, central Sweden. Mineralogical and geochemical studies have been carried out to clarify the premetamorphic origin of this type of deposit, which is set apart from most other Mn mineralizations by a significant enrichment in Ba, As, Sb, Pb, W and Be contained by various oxyminerals. The principal ore types at Sjögruvan are (1) hematite+quartz-magnetite, (2) hausmannite+calcite+tephroite and (3) braunite+celsian+phlogopite. The Mn ores are compositionally akin to modern Mn deposits formed by submarine hydrothermal processes (with a high Mn/Fe ratio and low contents of Co, Ni, Th, U and REE) and likely owe their existence to similar mechanisms of formation. Pb isotope data indicate that the metal source and timing of deposition is similar to the major stratabound base-metal and iron deposits in Bergslagen. All the key elements have been leached from the local felsic volcanic units and were deposited on the sea floor; the excellent Mn-Fe separation occurred in an Eh-pH gradient that essentially corresponded to the mixing zone of hydrothermal solutions and seawater. The braunite ore is chemically distinct from the hausmannite ore, with a high concentration of refractory elements (Al, Ti, Zr) and a positive Ce anomaly, which indicate a detrital/hydrogenetic contribution to its protolith. Carbon isotope ('13C) values around 0‰ (relative PDB) suggest that carbonates in the deposit formed directly from seawater.  相似文献

重庆高燕地区菱锰矿热水沉积成因地球化学证据   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  
重庆高燕锰矿床位于晚震旦世秦巴成锰沉积盆地,主要赋存于陡山沱组顶部,以鲕粒或球粒状产出.为了查明其成因,在收集该区锰矿相关成果的基础上,对ZK129-3#、ZK115-7#、ZK127-7#、ZK133-7#、ZK115-11#五个钻孔的陡山沱组鲕状菱锰矿进行系统采样,并测试了包括Mn、Fe、P、SiO2、CaO、MgO、Al2O3和LOI在内的8个地球化学指标,进而运用指相元素地球化学分析了Mn/Al、（MgO/Al2O3）×102、Al/（Al+Fe+Mn）和SiO2/Al2O3比值.结果表明：重庆高燕菱锰矿受陆源物质的影响很小,与海洋沉积有关,主要是海洋自生产物;Al/（Al+Fe+Mn）和SiO2/Al2O3值则指示其沉积过程中有热水参与,是热水沉积的产物.  相似文献

莫托萨拉铁锰矿床位于西天山阿吾拉勒成矿带东端,研究程度相对薄弱,在矿床成因方面存在热水沉积、沉积-热液改造、胶体化学沉积等争论。本文详细研究了莫托萨拉最上层锰矿及其围岩的矿物组成、结构构造和地球化学特征,并综合前人资料对整个铁锰矿床的成因做了进一步探讨。本研究首次在矿区发现了热液长石岩,其主要由钠长石、钾长石以及少量重晶石、霓石、锌铁黄长石等矿物组成,类似于"白烟型"热水沉积岩。莫托萨拉最上层锰矿主要由锰橄榄石、褐锰矿、红硅锰矿、磁锰铁矿以及少量重晶石、方铁锰矿等矿物组成,发育有典型的热水内碎屑结构,指示其沉积于海底热液喷流口附近。该层锰矿的Al/(Al+Fe+Mn)值很低(0～0.02)、Si/Al值较高(7.9～10.9)、Fe/Ti值很高(428～1353),通过UCC标准化后发现明显富集Zn、Ba、Pb等元素,而Co、Ni、Cu等元素未见富集,以上地球化学特征与现代海底热液成因铁锰沉积物一致。在Fe/Ti-Al/(Al+Fe+Mn)、Si O2-Al2O3、10×(Co+Ni+Cu)-Fe-Mn、100×(Zr+Ce+Y)-15×(Cu+Ni)-(Fe+Mn)/4等判别图中,莫托萨拉的锰矿层和铁矿层样品均落在海底热液沉积区。锰矿层和铁矿层的稀土元素经PAAS标准化后具有明显的Ce负异常、Eu正异常和Y正异常,与现代海底热液成因铁锰沉积物的稀土配分模式非常相似。综合分析本次研究的矿物学、岩石学、地球化学特征以及前人资料,本文认为莫托萨拉铁锰矿床为海相热水沉积成因,成矿与同期海底火山的间歇性活动密切相关,海底热液的化学组分、温度高低和活动强弱都具有明显的脉动性。莫托萨拉矿区铁锰共存但各自独立成矿,且铁锰分离程度较高,这在显生宙沉积型锰矿中独具特色。鉴于前人曾报道莫托萨拉铁矿石中存在菌藻类微生物化石,我们推测,该矿床的铁锰分离过程除了受控于沉积环境的氧化还原条件变化外,微生物的选择性氧化沉淀可能也发挥了重要作用,值得开展深入研究。  相似文献

The studied ophiolite‐hosted manganese prospects are located in southeast of Birjand, South Khorasan, in the east of Iran. The manganese ores within the ophiolitic sequence in this region occur as small discrete patches, associated with radiolarian chert and shale. Manganese ores in the host rocks are recognizable as three distinct syngenetic, diagenetic, and epigenetic features. The syngenetic manganese ores occurred as bands associated with light‐red radiolarian chert. The diagenetic Mn ores occurred as lenses accompanied by dark‐red to brown radiolarian chert. The epigenetic Mn ores occurred as veins/veinlets within the green radiolarian shale. The major manganese ore minerals are pyrolusite, braunite, bixbyite, ramsdellite, and romanechite showing replacement, colloidal, and brecciated textures. The high mean values of Mn/Fe (15.32) and Si/Al (15.65), and the low mean concentration values of trace elements, such as Cu (85.9 ppm), Ni (249.9 ppm), and Zn (149 ppm), as well as the high concentration values of Si, Fe, Mn, Ba, Zn, Sr, and As in the studied manganese ores furnished sufficient evidence to postulate that the sea‐floor Mn‐rich hydrothermal exhalatives were chiefly responsible for the ore formation, and the hydrogenous processes had negligible role in generation of the ores. The further geological and geochemical evidence also revealed that the ores deposited on the upper parts of the ophiolitic sequence by submarine exhalatives. The intense hydrothermal activities caused leaching of elements such as Mn, Fe, Si, Ba, As and Sr from the basaltic lavas (spilites). After debouching of the sea‐floor exhalatives, these elements entered the sedimentary basin. The redox conditions were responsible for separation of Fe from Mn.  相似文献

Intraclastic Mn carbonate rocks occur in the marginal areas of the manganese–carbonate orebody (manganesestone) of the Palaeoproterozoic Nsuta deposit in the Birimian of Ghana. Macroscopically the intraclastic rocks display graded bedding and are typified by a matrix-supported fabric with subangular to subrounded particles less than a millimetre to ∼1.5 × 0.5 cm. Both clasts and matrix consist mainly of varying proportions of microcrystalline and microconcretionary carbonates, quartz, muscovite and subordinate pyrite. Within individual intraclasts, carbonate minerals (including distinctly zoned microconcretions) are essentially Mg kutnahorite and Mg–Ca rhodochrosite, similar to the carbonate minerals in the manganesestone. Whole rock chemistry of the intraclastic carbonates shows significant variability in the amounts of SiO2, Al2O3, MnO, MgO, CaO, Na2O and, to a lesser extent, K2O. Major element contents of the manganesestone similarly vary widely, except that these have, in particular, comparably higher MnO but less SiO2 and Al2O3 than the intraclastic carbonates and host rock Mn phyllite. Rare earth element (REE) concentrations in the intraclastic carbonates are approximately an order of magnitude higher than in the manganesestone. Whereas both rocks exhibit positive Eu anomalies, only the manganesestone shows a discernibly negative Ce anomaly. Petrographic and geochemical features suggest that the intraclasts are fragments of reworked Mn carbonate sediments derived from intraformational erosion and subsequent (mass flow) deposition as carbonate “turbidite” mud. Processes such as submarine slumping, sliding and other sediment gravity flows may have likely interrupted Mn sedimentation and transported partially consolidated manganiferous sediments down slopes into the early Birimian ocean.  相似文献

Isotopic compositions of carbon (δ13C from −51.4 to −10.8 PDB) and oxygen (δ18O from 14.4 to 21.4 SMOW) were studied in rhodochrosite and calcite from manganese ores in the South Faizuly and Kyzyltash deposits of the southern Urals. The geological, petrographic, and isotopic data indicate that the studied carbonates are diagenetic formations. It is suggested that the main ore element (Mn) was delivered to the marine basin with hydrothermal solutions percolating in the oceanic crust. Manganese precipitated on the oceanic bottom as oxides near solution discharge zones. Manganese carbonates formed in sediments as a result of the oxidation of organic matter by manganese oxides. High biological productivity of the environment was caused by proximity to the hydrothermal vent that provided favorable biogeochemical conditions for the development of biocoenosis. Anomalously low 13C values in the South Faizuly deposit testify to the large-scale oxidation of methane in the course of manganese carbonate formation.__________Translated from Litologiya i Poleznye Iskopaemye, No. 4, 2005, pp. 416–429.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Kuleshov, Brusnitsyn.  相似文献

贵州松桃大塘坡地区的南华系是研究古代天然气渗漏及冷泉碳酸盐岩的理想地区之一.该区冷泉碳酸盐岩由两类岩石组成: 一是两界河组含砾砂岩中(Sturtian冰期早期) 的白云岩丘或透镜体; 二是之上的大塘坡组第一段黑色含锰岩系中的似层状或透镜状菱锰矿矿体及少量白云岩透镜体.该地区冷泉碳酸盐岩的碳同位素具明显的负偏特征, 充填在菱锰矿矿石气孔中的沥青碳同位素为-30.98‰, 并具有异常高的硫同位素正值.结合冷泉碳酸盐岩的空间分布、古天然气渗漏构造、菱锰矿的沉积有机质等特征分析, 认为其与现代冷泉碳酸盐岩的特征十分相近.两界河组的白云岩丘是目前所发现的最古老的冷泉碳酸盐岩, 与在它之上的菱锰矿矿体是同一个古天然气渗漏系统中不同时期的冷泉碳酸盐沉积.天然气泄漏形成的冷泉与大塘坡组烃源岩的形成关系密切.   相似文献
