We present a compilation of reliable paleomagnetic pole positions from five continental plates (North America, Europe, the Iberian Peninsula, Africa, and South America) for ten time intervals ranging from Late Carboniferous to Eocene. Only well-dated results obtained by demagnetization techniques have been used. Paleomagnetic poles are plotted with respect to the paleo-positions of the continents, as reconstructed from correlations of marine magnetic anomalies in the Atlantic Ocean by Pitman and Talwani and from the fit by Bullard et al. The poles from North America, Europe and the younger poles from Africa show a very good grouping for most of the ten intervals considered, and a continuous apparent polar wandering path is obtained. These data have been used to construct paleolatitude maps for most intervals; thus the relative positions of the continents were established from sea-floor spreading data and their absolute positions on the globe were determined from paleomagnetic data. The older data from South America and the other Gondwana continents show a systematic deviation from those of the northern continents for Late Paleozoic and Early Triassic time periods. An explanation is offered in a different continental reconstruction between Laurasia and Gondwanaland before Middle Triassic times.  相似文献

The West Spitsbergen Fold Belt, together with the Eurekan structures of northern Greenland and Ellesmere Island, are suggested to be the result of Late Cretaceous-Palaeocene intracontinental compressional tectonics. The Late Palaeozoic –Mesozoic rocks of western Spitsbergen are characterized by near-foreland deformation with ramp-flat, top-to-the east thrust trajectories, whereas structurally higher nappes involving Caledonian complexes are typified by more listric thrusts and mylonite zones. A minimum of 40 km of shortening is estimated for the northern part of the West Spitsbergen Fold Belt. The axial trends in the West Spitsbergen and the North Greenland Eurekan fold belts parallel the principal fault zones which accommodated the separation of Greenland and Svalbard after Chron 25/24. In northern Greenland, north directed Eurekan thrusts associated with mylonites and cleavage formation represent at least 10 km of shortening. Between 50 and 100 km of shortening is estimated for the markedly arcuate Eurekan Fold Belt of Ellesmere Island, but the principal tectonic transport is eastwards. Kinematic reconstructions suggest that Svalbard was linked to North America before the opening of the Eurasian Basin and Norwegian — Greenland Sea. In the Late Cretaceous — Palaeocene interval, the relative motion between Greenland and North America was convergent across the Greenland — Svalbard margin, giving rise to the West Spitsbergen Fold Belt and the Eurekan structures of North Greenland.  相似文献

分布在华北克拉通北缘中段崇礼—赤城地区的红旗营子(岩)群主要由变质表壳岩、晚古生代的闪长质—石英闪长质片麻岩和古元古代—新太古代的变质岩残片或残块组成。利用SHRIMP和LA-ICPMS法对红旗营子(岩)群变质表壳岩的锆石同位素年代学研究表明,变质表壳岩样品中除大量古元古代—新太古代的锆石年龄信息外,还有许多中元古代—晚古生代的锆石,且均有晚古生代甚至早中生代的多阶段变质作用的记录。这些证据表明红旗营子(岩)群并非早前寒武纪岩石建造,而是一套晚古生代的变质杂岩。红旗营子(岩)群周围侵入体的锆石U-Pb测年表明岩浆作用与变质作用具有较好的相关性,它们与中亚造山带多阶段的俯冲、碰撞造山和后造山伸展事件相关。由于红旗营子杂岩中含有晚古生代退变榴辉岩和变质方辉橄榄岩,这可能意味着华北克拉通北缘的冀北地块在晚古生代早期曾经从华北克拉通上裂开,在中亚造山带古亚洲洋板块俯冲作用的影响下又重新拼合,红旗营子杂岩代表华北克拉通北缘的冀北地块与华北克拉通在晚古生代重新拼合的俯冲碰撞拼贴带。  相似文献

A new reassembly of the continents around the North Atlantic Ocean is presented. The first criterion used for this reassembly is the identification of the structural framework related to the opening which consists of marginal fracture zones generated by offsets of the Rift. The Africa—North America, Eurasia—Greenland, Greenland—North America and Eurasia—North America adjustments are successively discussed. It is argued that the adjustments are best made at the 3000-meters isobath between Africa and North America and at the 2000-meters isobath for the younger rifts. The difference is attributed to subsidence and modification of continental margins with time. The importance of the Late Paleozoic tectonic phase in determining the subsequent pattern of Mesozoic rifting is emphasized.  相似文献

本文重点对华北地块北缘铅锌矿类型、特征、时空分布等进行了初步总结, 并探讨了铅锌成矿作用与区域构造演化的关系。通过初步总结认为, 该地区铅锌矿床的主要成因类型有SEDEX型、矽卡岩型、岩浆热液型、沉积改造型、MVT型及复合型等。从形成时间来看, 矿床主要形成于中元古代、晚古生代和中生代三个时期, 并在中元古代和中生代达到高峰。中元古代以形成SEDEX型、沉积改造型和MVT型矿床为主, 该时期处于被动陆缘基础上发育的裂谷环境; 晚古生代产出少量岩浆热液型铅锌矿床, 其形成可能为华北地块与西伯利亚南缘蒙古增生褶皱带拼合后的伸展及岩石圈拆沉作用有关; 中生代为岩浆热液型、矽卡岩型铅锌矿床的重要成矿期, 该时期主要发育陆内构造运动, 可能为欧亚构造动力学体系与西太平洋动力学体系复合、叠加作用的结果。  相似文献

运用斜长石-角闪石温压计对华北地块北缘内蒙古隆起及燕山褶断带内不同时期花岗质侵入岩的结晶压力及侵位深度进行了估算。结果表明,晚古生代—早中生代期间,在内蒙古隆起及燕山褶断带之间,存在有强烈的差异性隆升及剥露过程,但这种差异性隆升及剥露在早侏罗世以来的表现则不明显。晚古生代—早中生代差异性隆升及剥露可能是导致内蒙古隆起上大量基底岩石出露、中—新元古代及古生代沉积盖层缺失及燕山褶断带中—新元古代及古生代沉积盖层大量保留的主要原因。内蒙古隆起强烈的隆升及剥露过程发生在晚石炭世—早侏罗世期间,其东部的剥露幅度比中东部明显偏小。晚古生代-早中生代期间内蒙古隆起的强烈剥露及其与燕山褶断带之间的差异性隆升可能与古亚洲洋板块向华北地块的俯冲、消减、碰撞及华北北缘区域性断裂(如平泉-古北口-赤城-尚义断裂、赤峰-围场-多伦断裂)的活动有关。燕山褶断带的强烈隆升与剥露发生则在晚侏罗世—早白垩世之后。晚体罗世—早白垩世以来,华北地块北缘南北两侧均有一次明显的剥露过程,这一剥露可能与本区及中国东部地壳强烈伸展有关。  相似文献

中国东北地区主要地质特征和地壳构造格架   总被引:3,自引:2,他引:1  
中国东北地区位于亚洲大陆东缘,发育中国乃至地球上最古老的地质记录、多个时代的古洋岩石圈残片和活动陆缘及陆间碰撞岩浆岩带,具有独特的盆山-山脉相间地貌特征,蕴藏着丰富的自然资源。迄今为止,对于该区古生代构造单元如何划分,一直存在截然不同的认识;对于该区中生代以来的构造格架,缺乏系统的论述。本文在简要介绍现今不同山脉和盆地等地理单元地质特征的基础上,基于断裂构造和地貌特征等方面的资料,把该区新生代构造单元划分为大兴安岭、小兴安岭、阴山-燕山和长白山等4个隆起带,海拉尔-锡林浩特、松辽、三江-兴凯湖和下辽河等4个断陷带。基于岩浆活动和沉积盆地分布,结合区域地球动力学背景,提出了该区晚三叠世至中侏罗世、晚侏罗世、早白垩世早期和早白垩世晚期至古新世等不同阶段构造单元划分的初步方案。基于对已有资料的综合研究,对该区古生代构造单元的特征、松辽盆地的基底组成、早古生代和晚古生代华北克拉通北部边界的位置以及古生代洋盆演化及结束时间等重大地质构造问题,进行了初步探讨,提出了阴山-燕山地区在古生代晚期由克拉通转化为陆缘活化造山带;松辽盆地基底具有与周缘造山系相同的地质组成;该区古生代构造单元是陆缘造山带与碰撞造山带的复合而不是地块拼贴;该区在二叠纪晚期遭受了碰撞造山并在华北北缘形成了高耸的近东西走向的碰撞造山带等新认识。根据洋岩石圈残片和古陆缘岩浆岩的分布,把该区古生代构造单元划分为大兴安岭、阴山-燕山、小兴安岭、张广才岭和老爷岭等5个造山系及华北克拉通,简要介绍了不同造山系的地质特征。  相似文献

济阳坳陷稀土元素特征及其在物源对比中的应用   总被引:6,自引:1,他引:6  
物源是控制沉积物中REE组成最主要的因素,济阳坳陷区岩石稀土元素特征表明:①济阳坳陷古生界与华北地台其他地区同时代地层岩石的REE分布特征具有极大的相似性,这体现了晚古生代济阳坳陷区所处的整个华北地台区为一稳定的克拉通沉积盆地,地层横向分布稳定,具有一致的物源和构造背景;②济阳坳陷古生界为中生界的物源,反映了济阳坳陷区由古生代稳定地台型沉积到中生代山间盆地沉积的转变,中生代洼陷区的沉积主要来自对附近凸起区古生代地层的剥蚀;③新生界样品与中生界样品的REE分布模式具有很大的相似性,从一个侧面反映了济阳坳陷中生代与新生代的构造格局的转变,中生代接受沉积的部分洼陷区至古近纪成为供给物源的凸起区。  相似文献

An attempt is made to characterize an assembly of Arctic tectonic units formed before the opening of the Arctic Ocean. This assembly comprises the epi-Grenville Arctida Craton (a fragment of Rodinia) and the marginal parts of the Precambrian Laurentia, Baltica, and Siberian cratons. The cratons are amalgamated by orogenic belts (trails of formerly closed oceans). These are the Late Neoproterozoic belts (Baikalides), Middle Paleozoic belts (Caledonides), Permo-Triassic belts (Hercynides), and Early Cretaceous belts (Late Kimmerides). Arctida encompasses an area from the Svalbard Archipelago in the west to North Alaska in the east. The Svalbard, Barents, Kara, and other cratons are often considered independent Precambrian minicratons, but actually they are constituents of Arctida subsequently broken down into several blocks. The Neoproterozoic orogenic belt extends as a discontinuous tract from the Barents-Ural-Novaya Zemlya region via the Taimyr Peninsula and shelf of the East Siberian Sea to North Alaska as an arcuate framework of Arctida, which separates it from the Baltica and Siberian cratons. The Caledonian orogenic belt consisting of the Scandian and Ellesmerian segments frames Arctida on the opposite side, separating it from the Laurentian Craton. The opposite position of the Baikalian and Caledonian orogenic belts in the Arctida framework makes it possible to judge about the time when the boundaries of this craton formed as a result of its detachment from Rodinia. The Hercynian orogenic belt in the Arctic Region comprises the Novozemel’sky (Novaya Zemlya) and Taimyr segments, which initially were an ending of the Ural Hercynides subsequenly separated by a strike-slip fault. The Mid-Cretaceous (Late Kimmerian) orogenic belt as an offset of Pacific is divergent. It was formed under the effect of the opened Canada Basin and accretion and collision at the Pacific margins. The undertaken typification of pre-Late Mesozoic tectonic units, for the time being debatable in some aspects, allows reconstruction of the oceanic basins that predated the formation of the Arctic Ocean.  相似文献

北黄海盆地东部前中生界基底特征   总被引:6,自引:1,他引:5  
北黄海盆地是中国近海唯一未获得油气突破及勘探程度最低的含油气盆地(朝鲜已在该盆地东部实现了工业性油气突破),朝鲜在东部凹陷的3口钻井证实北黄海盆地东部凹陷主体前中生界基底是下古生界(Pz1)地层,与上覆以砂泥岩为主的中-新生界地层在地球物理特征上有很大差异,该特征提供了以地球物理资料推断和确定中-新生界盆地基底特征的可靠性。通过重力、磁力及大量多道地震资料解释认为,北黄海盆地前中生界基底最大埋深约5.5 km,凹陷主体部位前中生界基底以下古生界碳酸盐岩为主,其东北角可能存在上古生界碎屑岩基底,而凹陷南部可能是元古界浅变质岩基底。  相似文献

Tyrannosaurs and hadrosaurs from the Late Cretaceous of eastern North America (Appalachia) are distinct from those found in western North America (Laramidia), suggesting that eastern North America was isolated during the Late Cretaceous. However, the Late Cretaceous fauna of Appalachia remains poorly known. Here, a partial maxilla from the Campanian Tar Heel Formation (Black Creek Group) of North Carolina is shown to represent the first ceratopsian from the Late Cretaceous of eastern North America. The specimen has short alveolar slots, a ventrally projected toothrow, a long dentigerous process overlapped by the ectopterygoid, and a toothrow that curves laterally, a combination of characters unique to the Leptoceratopsidae. The maxilla has a uniquely long, slender and downcurved posterior dentigerous process, suggesting a specialized feeding strategy. The presence of a highly specialized ceratopsian in eastern North America supports the hypothesis that Appalachia underwent an extended period of isolation during the Late Cretaceous, leading the evolution of a distinct dinosaur fauna dominated by basal tyrannosauroids, basal hadrosaurs, ornithimimosaurs, nodosaurs, and leptoceratopsids. Appalachian vertebrate communities are most similar to those of Laramidia. However some taxa-including leptoceratopsids-are also shared with western Europe, raising the possibility of a Late Cretaceous dispersal route connecting Appalachia and Europe.  相似文献

中国北方的中朝克拉通与南方的扬子克拉通无论在基底年代及盖层发育程度、沉积环境及古生物群上都有差异。它们是两个构造发育史不同的大陆。这两个古大陆之间的大洋究竟有多宽?是何时关闭的?合并时的构造运动强烈程度?在挽近地质历史时期有无相类似的情况?这些问题一直是中外地质学家所关注,并在不同程度上讨论过的问题。近年来的地质工作,提供了一些可据以回答上述问题的成果,但全面可靠地回答上述全部问题还有待今后的努力。笔者在过去的文章(1-3)曾讨论一些有关问题。本文,拟就近期国内外的研究成果,发表一些评论,并提出作者的看法  相似文献

从沉积建造分析入手,通过对区内晚古生代—早中生代火山岩组合的构造属性识别,认为区内晚古生代—早中生代构造演化是一个连续的过程,它奠定了该区的基本构造格局,也是金与铜多金属矿产的主要成矿时期;晚古生代—早中生代发育的双岩浆弧是在同一动力学机制下不同阶段形成的造山岩浆弧:陆缘的钙碱性岩浆弧和陆内的高钾钙碱性岩浆弧。晚古生代—早中生代构造岩浆旋回可以划分为2个阶段,早期的俯冲造山阶段形成了与蛇绿岩有关的火山岩类和弧火成岩类,晚期的大洋闭合和碰撞造山阶段则形成了钾玄岩系列火山岩。  相似文献

The tectonics and metallogeny of the junction zone between the North Asian craton and Pacific tectonic belt are considered. This zone is characterized by a wide variety of structures superposed on the metamorphic basement, which was formed in the course of a multistage geologic development of the craton from the Precambrian to the Cenozoic. They are related to the craton evolution and its response to the collision and subduction processes in the adjacent orogenic belt, processes in the passive and active continental margins, and plume magmatism. The geological structure of the region includes blocks of metamorphic rocks of the Aldan–Stanovoi shield, Paleoproterozoic volcanogenic troughs, Mesoproterozoic–Neoproterozoic and Early Paleozoic structures of the platform cover, Late Paleozoic volcanic and terrigenous troughs, structures of the Late Mesozoic Okhotsk–Chukotka volcanic belt of the active continental margin, and Late Cretaceous riftogenic structures formed in response to plume magmatism. In total, six metallogenic epochs are recognized in the development of ore mineralization: Archean–Early Paleoproterozoic, Late Paleoproterozoic, Mesoproterozoic, Neoproterozoic, Late Paleozoic, and Late Mesozoic. The minerageny of the junction zone between the craton and Pacific belt is highly diversified, being characterized by distinct evolution in time and space. Each development stage features its own set of mineral resources.  相似文献

The entire width of the North American Cordillera in Alaska is made up of “suspect terranes”. Pre-Late Cretaceous paleogeography is poorly constrained and the ultimate origins of the many fragments which make up the state are unclear. The Prince William and Chugach terranes accreted since Late Cretaceous time and represent the collapse of much of the northeast Pacific Ocean swept into what today is southern Alaska. Greater Wrangellia, a composite terrane now dispersed into fragments scattered from Idaho to southern Alaska, apparently accreted into Alaska in Late Cretaceous time crushing an enormous deep-marine flysch basin on its inboard side. Most of interior eastern Alaska is the Yukon Tanana terrane, a very large entirely fault-bounded metamorphic-plutonic assemblage covering thousands of square kilometers in Canada as well as Alaska. The original stratigraphy and relationship to North America of the Yukon-Tanana terrane are both obscure. A collapsed Mesozoic flysch basin, similar to the one inboard of Wrangellia, lies along the northern margin. Much of Arctic Alaska was apparently a vast expanse of upper Paleozoic to Early Mesozoic deep marine sediments and mafic volcanic and plutonic rocks now scattered widely as large telescoped sheets and Klippen thrust over the Ruby geanticline and the Brooks Range, and probably underlying the Yukon-Koyukuk basin and the Yukon flats. The Brooks Range itself is a stack of north vergent nappes, the telescoping of which began in Early Cretaceous time. Despite compelling evidence for thousands of kilometers of relative displacement between the accreted terranes, and large amounts of telescoping, translation, and rotation since accretion, the resulting new continental crust added to North America in Alaska carries few obvious signatures that allow application of currently popular simple plate tectonic models. Intraplate telescoping and strike-slip translations, delamination at mid-crustal levels, and large-scale lithospheric wedging were important processes in northern Cordilleran tectonic evolution.  相似文献

采用LA-ICP-MS方法对青藏高原祁漫塔格山西部枯草沟地区花岗岩和闪长岩进行锆石U-Pb测年,获得405.7±1.3Ma、420.8±1.6Ma、423.9±1.5Ma和421.0±1.7Ma四个年龄,属于晚志留世—早泥盆世。这些锆石具有高Th/U值,是典型的岩浆锆石,其结晶年龄代表岩石形成年龄。综合统计目前已有锆石U-Pb年龄数据表明,该地区主要存在2期岩浆活动:350~500Ma和200~350Ma,分别对应早古生代和晚古生代—早中生代。祁漫塔格早古生代岩浆活动年龄数量占统计的60%以上,为主要岩浆活动期,主要分布于祁漫塔格北部和西部。东昆仑晚古生代—早中生代的岩浆约占古生代以来岩浆总量的77%以上,为东昆仑主要岩浆活动期。祁漫塔格晚古生代—早中生代岩浆活动主要分布于其东南部,靠近东昆仑山,暗示其可能受东昆仑主要岩浆活动的影响。以上结果暗示,早古生代期间祁漫塔格洋的活动性强于东昆仑洋的活动性,祁漫塔格和东昆仑可能自晚古生代以来才逐步形成统一的造山带。  相似文献

Rock complexes in Mongolia experienced two remagnetization events. Almost all secondary remanence components of normal polarity were acquired apparently in the Cenozoic, after major deformation events, and those of reverse polarity were associated with intrusion of bimodal magmas during the Late Carboniferous–Permian reverse superchron. Active continental-margin sequences in some areas of Mongolia were folded prior to the Late Carboniferous–Permian magnetic event. The primary origin of magnetization in Late Paleozoic and Mesozoic rocks has been inferred to different degrees of reliability. According to paleolatitudes derived from most reliable paleomagnetic data, the analyzed rocks were located far north of the North China block throughout the Late Paleozoic and Early Mesozoic. Mongolia, as well as Siberia, moved from the south to the north in the Paleozoic, back from the north to the south between the latest Triassic and the latest Jurassic, and remained almost within the same latitudes in Cretaceous and Cenozoic time. These paleolatitudes show no statistical difference from those for the Siberian craton at least since the latest Permian (275–250 Ma). Older Mongolian complexes (with ages of 290, 316, and 330 Ma) likewise may have formed within the Siberian continent, which makes their paleomagnetic determinations applicable to calculate the polar wander path for Siberia. The paleolatitudes of Early Carboniferous sediments in Mongolia differ significantly from those of Siberia, either because of overprints from the reverse superchron or because they were deposited away from the Siberian margin.  相似文献
