The section of the Angara Formation (upper portion of Lower Cambrian) is composed of a complex combination of dolomites, anhydrites, marlstones, and salinastones. The occurrence of solution breccia, various types of metasomatism, and other indications testify to the substantial postsedimentary reworking of these rocks. Sulfate reduction, one of the most important processes of reworking, is clearly expressed in the sulfur isotopic composition. The 87Sr/86Sr ratio in carbonate and sulfate materials is more stable owing to the relatively high Sr content in these rocks. Nevertheless, most sulfate and carbonate rocks are contaminated with the radiogenic Sr. The carbon isotope ratio in carbonates is close to the “normal” value despite the evaporitic character of sedimentation basins and the possible participation of organic carbon, which is a product of the oxidation of hydrocarbons by sulfates, in the transformation of carbonates. The Rb-Sr analysis of the clayey component of marlstones and the K-Ar analysis of mudstones from the lower portion of the Lower Cambrian-Vendian section indicate that the rocks were mainly transformed during a time span corresponding to the Caledonian folding dramatically manifested at the platform margin.  相似文献

Throughout the geological history of the Earth, submarine hydrothermal activity has played an important role in seawater chemistry, biological evolution and enrichment of metals in the Earth crust. However, the prospect of hydrothermal activity for extreme element accumulation during the early Cambrian, a key geological period, in South China has not been well-constrained. This study reports geochemical (e.g. REE and Sr isotope) investigations of a coarse-grained limestone layer and associated calcite veins in Zunyi and Nayong areas, Guizhou Province, to constrain the hydrothermal activity and evaluate the significance of hydrothermal contribution to extreme element accumulation during the early Cambrian, South China. Our results reveal positive Eu anomalies and higher initial 87Sr/86Sr ratios (0.7083–0.7150) for carbonate samples than those of early Cambrian seawater, indicating the presence of hydrothermal processes. Combined with constraints from the spatial relationships and coincidence with adjacent mineralization, these hydrothermal processes provide the most probable contribution for polymetallic Ni–Mo–PGE mineralization. Furthermore, there are abundant hydrothermal dolomite and barite-calcite veins in the dolostone of the Dengying Formation, indicating the occurrence of a variety of hydrothermal fluids. Overall, multi-stage hydrothermal pulses with different fluid compositions spanned the Ediacaran–Cambrian transition in South China. In particular, these hydrothermal fluids with positive Eu anomalies and enriched radiogenic Sr, originating from Proterozoic mafic/ultramafic rocks, may have flowed through the underlying Precambrian silicate clastic rocks (e.g., Xiajiang, Banxi and Lengjiaxi Groups) and may have been crucial for the marine environment, biological diversity and extreme element accumulation during the early Cambrian, South China.  相似文献

Filtered subglacial meltwater samples were collected daily during the onset of melt (May) and peak melt (July) over the 2011 melt season at the Athabasca Glacier (Alberta, Canada) and analyzed for strontium-87/strontium-86 (87Sr/86Sr) isotopic composition to infer the evolution of subglacial weathering processes. Both the underlying bedrock composition and subglacial water–rock interaction time are the primary influences on meltwater 87Sr/86Sr. The Athabasca Glacier is situated atop Middle Cambrian carbonate bedrock that also contains silicate minerals. The length of time that subglacial meltwater interacts with the underlying bedrock and substrate is a predominant determining factor in solute concentration. Over the course of the melt season, increasing trends in Ca/K and Ca/Mg correspond to overall decreasing trends in 87Sr/86Sr, which indicate a shift in weathering processes from the presence of silicate weathering to primarily carbonate weathering.Early in the melt season, rates of carbonate dissolution slow as meltwater approaches saturation with respect to calcite and dolomite, corresponding to an increase in silicate weathering that includes Sr-rich silicate minerals, and an increase in meltwater 87Sr/86Sr. However, carbonate minerals are preferentially weathered in unsaturated waters. During the warmest part of a melt season the discharged meltwater is under saturated, causing an increase in carbonate weathering and a decrease in the radiogenic Sr signal. Likewise, larger fraction contributions of meltwater from glacial ice corresponds to lower 87Sr/86Sr values, as the meltwater has lower water–rock interaction times in the subglacial system. These results indicate that although weathering of Sr-containing silicate minerals occurs in carbonate dominated glaciated terrains, the continual contribution of new meltwater permits the carbonate weathering signal to dominate.  相似文献

Sr isotope and Ca/Mg/Sr chemical compositions of freshwater ostracode tests separated from a sediment core represent the last 16 ka of sedimentation in Lake Constance, Central Europe. The chemical evolution of the paleowater's dissolved load of Lake Constance was estimated by correcting the ostracode data for Ca/Mg/Sr fractionation due to biogenic calcification. Since the Late Pleistocene deglaciation, the Ca/Sr molar ratios of paleowaters increased systematically from about 100 (a near marine signature) to about 200. Ca/Mg molar ratios varied in the range of 1–25. The 87Sr/86Sr ratios indicate Late Pleistocene paleowater compositions of 0.7086–0.7091, significantly more radiogenic than present day waters (0.7085). Sr isotopes and Ca/Mg/Sr chemical data together show that weathering of Mesozoic evaporites consistently dominated the dissolved Sr load (80–90%). Carbonate and silicate weathering were less important (1–10%). Trends of Sr dissolved loads were therefore not related to Mg which was mainly mobilized by carbonate weathering. Biotite weathering was an important source of radiogenic Sr in the paleowaters. The short-term release (duration about 600–800 years) of radiogenic Sr during glacier retreat started 15.2 ka ago and was due to enhanced biotite weathering at the glacier base. Long-term release of radiogenic Sr was due to biotite weathering in glacial soils and silicate rocks, and has gradually declined since the Late Pleistocene/Holocene transition.  相似文献

The Rb-Sr and U-Pb systematics were studied for carbonate rocks of the Lower Riphean Bakal Formation of the southern Urals and related siderite ores of the Bakal iron deposit. The least-altered limestones taken at a significant distance from the Bakal ore field satisfy the strict geochemical criteria of retentivity: Mn/Sr < 0.2, Fe/Sr < 0.5, and 87Sr/86Sr (difference between the measured 87Sr/86Sr values in secondary and primary carbonate phases) < 0.001. The least-altered carbonate phases were extracted by the stepwise dissolution in 0.5 N HBr. The Pb-Pb date of limestones (1430 ± 30 Ma) defines the age of early diagenesis of carbonate sediments of the Bakal Formation. The 87Sr/86Sr ratio in the sedimentary environment of the Bakal carbonates (0.70457–0.70481) yields isotopic signature for the Early Riphean seawater. The Pb-Pb age of metasomatic siderites (1010 ± 100 Ma), which formed at the end of the main ore formation stage and did not undergo late epigenesis, corresponds to the final phases of the Grenville tectonogenesis. Siderites of the main ore formation stage are confined to central parts of the thickest carbonate units and have high ratios of 87Sr/86Sr (0.73482–0.73876) and 208Pb/204Pb (41.4–42.9). Iron-bearing solutions formed during the diagenesis of mainly Lower Riphean clayey rocks and migrated along low-density zones and faults. The solutions discharged at the interformational unconformity between the Bakal and Zigalga formations. At the contact with shales, carbonate rocks and siderites experienced the later epigenetic dolomitization (partial desideritization) caused by the circulation of solutions enriched in radiogenic 87Sr and low-radiogenic 206Pb. This dolomitization occurred simultaneously with the Cadomian tectonothermal activation of the region.__________Translated from Litologiya i Poleznye Iskopaemye, No. 3, 2005, pp. 227–249.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Kuznetsov, Krupenin, Ovchinnikova, Gorokhov, Maslov, Kaurova, Ellmies.  相似文献

Carbonatites of the Eocene Tamazeght complex, High Atlas Mountains, Morocco, consist of calciocarbonatites (alvikite and sövite dykes) and magnesiocarbonatites (diatreme breccias and dykes rocks). These are associated with ultramafic, shonkinitic, gabbroic to monzonitic and various foid syenitic silicate units. Stable and radiogenic isotope compositions for carbonatites and silicate rocks indicate that they share a common source in the mantle, although for some carbonatitic samples contamination with sedimentary rocks seems important. The observed isotopic heterogeneity is mainly attributed to source characteristics, fractional crystallization (accompanied by various degrees of assimilation), and late- to post-magmatic fluid–rock interaction. During the late fluid–rock interaction, Sr, Mn, and possibly also Fe were mobilized and redistributed to form secondary carbonate minerals in carbonatites. These fluids also penetrated into the adjacent syenitic rocks, causing enrichment in the same elements.  相似文献

On the basis of U-Pb, Rb-Sr and K-Ar isotope analyses of Proterozoic rocks and minerals, a chronology has been established for the tectonic, intrusive and metamorphic evolution of the Svecokarelian orogeny 1750–1950 Ma ago in the Uppsala Region, Eastern Sweden. It is suggested that when synkinematic granitoids intruded the orogenic belt, at a stage of general subsidence and at medium metamorphic conditions (600°C and 3.5–4 kbar), the U-Pb isotope system in zircons closed earlier than the Rb-Sr whole-rock system. The zircon age (1886 Ma) reflects the intrusion and crystallization of the rock melt and the Rb-Sr whole-rock age (1830 Ma) the time when the temperature had decreased below the threshold for 87Sr migration. The Rb-Sr whole rock age (1898 Ma) determined for metaandesites and metadacites reflects a recrystallization related to the intrusion of the granitoids. On the contrary, the more silicic metarhyodacitic volcanic rocks have a Rb-Sr whole rock age (1830 Ma) reflecting the cessation of the synkinematic metamorphism. The difference in the way the Rb-Sr isotope system responds in subsilicic or silicic metavolcanics is probably dependent on the amount of radiogenic 87Sr and on the fixation of 87Sr in Ca-rich minerals. Subsequent, late-kinematic, low amphibolite facies metamorphism has not altered the Rb-Sr ages of the granitoids and the recrystallized metavolcanics.  相似文献

New data on geochemical features of the Lower Paleozoic terrigenous rocks in the Mamyn terrane (eastern Central Asian Fold Belt) and U–Pb geochronological studies of the detrital zircon from these rocks are presented. The obtained results suggest the following conclusions. 1. At present, the Kosmataya sequence includes different age Lower Cambrian terrigenous–carbonate and Lower Ordovician terrigenous rocks or represents Lower Ordovician olistostromes including limestone blocks with the Lower Cambrian fauna. Lower Ordovician terrigenous rocks were formed in an island arc or active continental margin, mainly, owing to the erosion of Cambrian–Early Ordovician plutons and volcanics that are widespread in structures of the Mamyn terrane and weakly reworked by the chemical weathering. 2. The Silurian Mamyn Formation was developed at a passive continental margin. The main sources of clastic material for this formation were the same Cambrian–Early Ordovician igneous rocks as for the Cambrian sequence, with the participation of Early Silurian and Vendian igneous complexes. The obtained data significantly refine concepts about the geological structure of the Mamyn terrane, which is a member of the Argun Superterrane, one of the largest tectonic structures in the eastern Central Asian Fold Belt.  相似文献

A combined Sr, O and C isotope study has been carried out in the Pucará basin, central Peru, to compare local isotopic trends of the San Vicente and Shalipayco Zn-Pb Mississippi Valley-type (MVT) deposits with regional geochemical patterns of the sedimentary host basin. Gypsum, limestone and regional replacement dolomite yield 87Sr/86Sr ratios that fall within or slightly below the published range of seawater 87Sr/86Sr values for the Lower Jurassic and the Upper Triassic. Our data indicate that the Sr isotopic composition of seawater between the Hettangian and the Toarcian may extend to lower 87Sr/86Sr ratios than previously published values. An 87Sr-enrichment is noted in (1) carbonate rocks from the lowermost part of the Pucará basin, and (2) different carbonate generations at the MVT deposits. This indicates that host rocks at MVT deposits and in the lower-most part of the carbonate sequence interacted with 87Srenriched fluids. The fluids acquired their radiogenic nature by interaction with lithologies underlying the carbonate rocks of the Pucará basin. The San Ramón granite, similar Permo-Triassic intrusions and their clastic derivatives in the Mitu Group are likely sources of radiogenic 87Sr. The Brazilian shield and its erosion products are an additional potential source of radiogenic 87Sr. Volcanic rocks of the Mitu Group are not a significant source for radiogenic 87Sr; however, molasse-type sedimentary rocks and volcaniclastic rocks cannot be ruled out as a possible source of radiogenic 87Sr. The marked enrichment in 87Sr of carbonates toward the lower part of the Pucará Group is accompanied by only a slight decrease in 18O values and essentially no change in 13C values, whereas replacement dolomite and sparry carbonates at the MVT deposits display a coherent trend of progressive 87Sr-enrichment, and 18O- and 13C-depletion. The depletion in 18O in carbonates from the MVT deposits are likely related to a temperature increase, possibly coupled with a 18O-enrichment of the ore-forming fluids. Progressively lower 13C values throughout the paragenetic sequence at the MVT deposits are interpreted as a gradually more important contribution from organically derived carbon. Quantitative calculations show that a single fluid-rock interaction model satisfactorily reproduces the marked 87Sr-enrichment and the slight decrease in 18O values in carbonate rocks from the lower part of the Pucará Group. By contrast, the isotopic covariation trends of the MVT deposits are better reproduced by a model combining fluid mixing and fluid-rock interaction. The modelled ore-bearing fluids have a range of compositions between a hot, saline, radiogenic brine that had interacted with lithologies underlying the Pucará sequence and cooler, dilute brines possibly representing local fluids within the Pucará sequence. The composition of the local fluids varies according to the nature of the lithologies present in the neighborhood of the different MVT deposits. The proportion of the radiogenic fluid in the modelled fluid mixtures interacting with the carbonate host rocks at the MVT deposits decreases as one moves up in the stratigraphic sequence of the Pucará Group.  相似文献

Isotopic compositions of C, O, and Sr in carbonates, as well as Rb-Sr systems in the silicate material from Upper Precambrian and Lower Cambrian rocks exposed by the Chapa River in the northern Yenisei Ridge, are studied. The Late Precambrian part of the section includes the following formations (from the bottom to top): Lopatinskaya (hereafter, Lopatino), Vandadykskaya (hereafter, Vandadyk) or Kar’ernaya, Chivida, Suvorovskaya (hereafter, Suvorovo), Pod”emskaya (hereafter, Podyom), and Nemchanka. They are characterized by alternation of horizons with anomalously high and low δ13C values (such alternation is typical of the ∼700–550 Ma interval). The lower, relatively thin (20 m), positive excursion (δ13C up to 4.3‰) was established in dolomites from the lower subformation of the Vandadyk (Kar’ernaya) Formation (hereafter, lower Vandadyk subformation). The upper positive excursion (δ13C = 2.2 ± 0.6‰) was recorded in the 3-km-thick Nemchanka Formation enriched in terrigenous rocks. The lower negative excursion stands out as uniform, moderately low δ13C values (−2 ± 1‰) and significant thickness. It comprises the upper part of the Vandadyk Formation, as well as Chivida and Podyom formations. The upper negative excursion is related to a thin (∼20 m) marker carbonate horizon of the upper Nemchanka subformation, in which δ13C values fall down to −8.3‰. The lower part of the Lebyazhinskaya (hereafter, Lebyazhino) Formation, which overlies the Nemchanka Formation, shows a step-by-step increase in δ13C from −2.2 to 2.5‰ typical of the Vendianto-Cambrian (Nemakit-Daldyn Horizon/Stage) transitional sequences. The absence of relationships between the carbon and oxygen isotope compositions and other parameters of postsedimentary alterations suggests that the excursions characterized above could form at the sedimentation stage and coincide in general with δ13C fluctuations in seawater. The value of 87Sr/86Sr = 0.7076−0.7078 in limestones of the Podyom Formation points to their early Ediacaran age. Values of 87Sr/86Sr = 0.70841 and 0.70845 in dolomites of the lower Lebyazhino subformation correspond to the Early Cambrian. The Rb-Sr systems of the clay material from the Vandadyk and Chivida formations are approximated by a straight line, parameters of which correspond to the age of 695 ± 20 Ma (87Sr/86Sr0 = 0.7200 ± 0.0013) and probably characterize the epigenetic stage of older sedimentary rocks, which were subjected to very rapid exhumation and “polar” sulfuric acid weathering in the course of glacioeustatic regression.  相似文献

Rb-Sr whole-rock and mineral analyses are reported from Early Paleozoic sediments of the southern rim of the French Central Massif (Montagne Noire). The sediments—mainly pelites, silt- and sandstones—can be separated into three different zones (A, B, and C) according to their varying degrees of deformation and transformation, which took place during the Hercynian (= Variscan) orogeny (Carboniferous). For the least deformed, folded but not schistose, fossiliferous Lower Ordovician sediments (zone A), a scatter of the data points resulted, at least partly due to the varying amount of detrital muscovites, which did not equilibrate their Sr isotopes with those of the clay minerals. Fossiliferous Middle Cambrian sediments (zone B), however, are colinear in an isochron plot. The rocks are also folded, and show a beginning schistosity in the pelitic layers. The age of 333±16 m.y. therefore does not correspond to the time of sedimentation, as one would expect from most of the interpretations given in the literature. It is, however, in close agreement with the stratigraphically known time of folding and anchimetamorphism. The same result, within analytical error, of 326±17 m.y. was obtained for Lower Ordovician sediments (zone C), which show a schistosity not only in the pelites but also in some psammitic layers. As for the sediments of zone B, this result indicates open whole-rock systems for Rb and/or Sr during folding and anchimetamorphism. Minerals extracted from psammites of zones B and C gave the following results: albite coincides with the isochrons; detrital muscovites do not coincide and yield ages of about 650 m.y. (Cadomian orogeny) for both zone B and C sediments; detrital chlorites from zone B sediments seem to be only partly reset by anchimetamorphism and therefore plot closer to the whole-rock isochron. From this it must be concluded that an increasing amount of these detrital micas could significantly shift the position of the total-rock points, as might be the case for zone A sediments. From the whole-rock results of zone B and C sediments and the mineralogical and petrological changes during diagenesis and anchimetamorphism we conclude that many of the isochrons obtained from stratigraphically uncontrollable Precambrian sediments should be reinterpreted in favour of metamorphic and not sedimentary ages, especially if the metamorphism reached greenschist facies conditions. Devonian and Cambrian limestones intercalated between the pelites, silstones and sandstones contain Sr of a variable and slightly radiogenic isotopic composition in contrast to the expected ancient sea water Sr. This fact is interpreted again in favour of open whole-rock systems during the postdepositional history of the rock, rather than primary scatter of ancient, radiogenic sea water Sr.  相似文献

Exhumation of the Himalayan-Tibetan orogen is implicated in the marked rise in seawater 87Sr/86Sr ratios since 40 Ma. However both silicate and carbonate rocks in the Himalaya have elevated 87Sr/86Sr ratios and there is disagreement as to how much of the 87Sr flux is derived from silicate weathering. Most previous studies have used element ratios from bedrock to constrain the proportions of silicate- and carbonate-derived Sr in river waters. Here we use arrays of water compositions sampled from the head waters of the Ganges in the Indian and Nepalese Himalaya to constrain the end-member element ratios. The compositions of tributaries draining catchments restricted to a limited range of geological units can be described by two-component mixing of silicate and carbonate-derived components and lie on a plane in multicomponent composition space. Key elemental ratios of the carbonate and silicate components are determined by the intersection of the tributary mixing plane with the planes Na = 0 for carbonate and constant Ca/Na for silicate. The fractions of Sr derived from silicate and carbonate sources are then calculated by mass-balance in Sr-Ca-Mg-Na composition space. Comparison of end-member compositions with bedrock implies that secondary calcite deposition may be important in some catchments and that dissolution of low-Mg trace calcite in silicate rocks may explain discrepancies in Sr-Ca-Na-Mg covariation. Alternatively, composition-dependent precipitation or incongruent dissolution reactions may rotate mixing trends on cation-ratio diagrams. However the calculations are not sensitive to transformations of the compositions by incongruent dissolution or precipitation processes provided that the transformed silicate and carbonate component vectors are constrained. Silicates are calculated to provide ∼50% of the dissolved Sr flux from the head waters of the Ganges assuming that discrepancies between Ca-Mg-Na covariation and the silicate rock compositions arise from addition of trace calcite. If the Ca-Mg-Na mixing plane is rotated by composition-dependent secondary calcite deposition, this estimate would be increased. Moreover, when 87Sr/86Sr ratios of the Sr inputs are considered, silicate Sr is responsible for 70 ± 16% (1σ) of the 87Sr flux forcing changes in seawater Sr-isotopic composition. Since earlier studies predict that silicate weathering generates as little as 20% of the total Sr flux in Himalayan river systems, this study demonstrates that the significance of silicate weathering can be greatly underestimated if the processes that decouple the water cation ratios from those of the source rocks are not properly evaluated.  相似文献

Major and trace element and Sr-Nd-Pb-O-C isotopic compositions are presented for carbonatites from the Cape Verde (Brava, Fogo, Sáo Tiago, Maio and Sáo Vicente) and Canary (Fuerteventura) Islands. Carbonatites show pronounced enrichment in Ba, Th, REE, Sr and Pb in comparison to most silicate volcanic rocks and relative depletion in Ti, Zr, Hf, K and Rb. Calcio (calcitic)-carbonatites have primary (mantle-like) stable isotopic compositions and radiogenic isotopic compositions similar to HIMU-type ocean island basalts. Cape Verde carbonatites, however, have more radiogenic Pb isotope ratios (e.g. 206Pb/204Pb=19.3-20.4) than reported for silicate volcanic rocks from these islands (18.7-19.9; Gerlach et al. 1988; Kokfelt 1998). We interpret calcio-carbonatites to be derived from the melting of recycled carbonated oceanic crust (eclogite) with a recycling age of ~1.6 Ga. Because of the degree of recrystallization, replacement of calcite by secondary dolomite and elevated ‘13C and ‘18O, the major and trace element compositions of the magnesio (dolomitic)-carbonatites are likely to reflect secondary processes. Compared with Cape Verde calcio-carbonatites, the less radiogenic Nd and Pb isotopic ratios and the negative Ɨ/4 of the magnesio-carbonatites (also observed in silicate volcanic rocks from the Canary and Cape Verde Islands) cannot be explained through secondary processes or through the assimilation of Cape Verde crust. These isotopic characteristics require the involvement of a mantle component that has thus far only been found in the Smoky Butte lamproites from Montana, which are believed to be derived from subcontinental lithospheric sources. Continental carbonatites show much greater variation in radiogenic isotopic composition than oceanic carbonatites, requiring a HIMU-like component similar to that observed in the oceanic carbonatites and enriched components. We interpret the enriched components to be Phanerozoic through Proterozoic marine carbonate (e.g. limestone) recycled through shallow, subcontinental-lithospheric-mantle and deep, lower-mantle sources.  相似文献

Size fractions <5 μm of Fithian illite were treated with 1 N HCl, H+- from cation-exchange resin, and 5% NH4-EDTA-solution, and analyzed for their Rb-Sr isotopic composition. In comparison to the effects of HCl, the ion-exchange resin leached the same amount of Sr, but significantly less Rb and radiogenic 87Sr from poorly-crystallized 1 M illite.An age of 284 ± 8 Ma (I.R. 0.7109 ± 6 is more or less in agreement with the Missourian (Stephanian) age of deposition. The agreement is fortuitous because of the presence of small amounts of detrital 2 M illite and kaolinite, thus the true age of diagenesis might be somewhat less.87Sr86Sr ratio measurements of Tithonian Solnhofen limestone demonstrate that, even though the silicate component constitutes less than 5% of the total, the majority of the radiogenic 87Sr is leached from “broken-bond” surfaces of the nearly pure kaolinite-residues during the HCl treatment. Ion-exchange and EDTA treatment can be useful in this situation to obtain a precise separation of environmental Sr (in carbonate) from radiogenic 87Sr (in silicates), and an adequate spread of RbSr values from argillaceous fine fractions in the construction of isochrons.  相似文献
