Grenville dolomitic marbles and calc-silicates at Stephen Cross Quarry, Québec, underwent contact metamorphism and metasomatism associated with the intrusion of the Wakefield syenite at ambient pressures of 0.4GPa at 1090–1070Ma. Fluid infiltration produced exoskarns, calcite+periclase+forsterite±diopside±orthoclase assemblages in the marbles, and quartz±calcite±wollastonite±diopside±anorthite assemblages in the calc-silicates. Phase-equilibria in the CaO–MgO–Al2O3–SiO2–H2O–CO2 system suggest that fluid infiltration occurred close to the thermal peak of contact metamorphism (715–815°C) and that the fluids hadXCO20.15. In the metasediments, 18O values of calcite (Cc) are as low as 8.6, suggesting that the fluids were in isotopic equilibrium with the syenites (18O =8.8–10.2). Marble 13C(Cc) values are-0.1 to-3.2; the lack of correlation between 13C(Cc) and 18O(Cc) is consistent with the infiltration of water-rich fluids. The resetting of stable isotopes and the mineralogical changes can be explained by time-integrated fluid fluxes of up to 110 m3/m2 (4×106 mol/m2), corresponding to actual fluxes of 3×10-11 to 3×10-12 m3/m2-s and intrinsic permeabilities of 10-18 to 10-20 m2 for fluid flow lasting 0.1-1Ma. Marble 18O(Cc) values do not correlate well with distance from the syenite, and fluids were probably channelled across lithological layering. The correlation between the degree of resetting of marble 18O(Cc) values with the abundance of submillimetre-wide veins, suggests that fluid focussing may have resulted from variations in fracture density. Late, lower temperature (<500°C), fluid flow formed serpentine (Serp) and brucite (Br) from periclase and forsterite. 18O(Br) and 18O(Scrp) values correlate with 18O(Cc), suggesting that retrogression involved only limited volumes of fluid. The observation that 18O(Cc-Br) and 18O(Cc-Serp) values are higher in marbles that have lower 18O(Cc) values is interpreted as indicating that fluid flow persisted to lower temperatures in those rocks due to higher intrinsic permeabilities. Calcite in the syenite was also formed by the influx of fluids during cooling. Syenite 18O(Cc) values are approximately in isotopic equilibrium with the high-temperature silicate minerals, suggesting that again only minor volumes of fluid were involved. In detail fluid flow was prolonged and complex, creating problems for the application of quantitative fluid flow models.This paper is a contribution to IGCP 304, Lower Crustal Processes 相似文献

Graphite occurs in two distinct textural varieties in syntectonic granitoids of the New Hampshire Plutonic Series and in associated metasedimentary wall rocks. Textural characteristics indicate that coarse graphite flakes were present at an early stage of crystallization of the igneous rocks and thus may represent xenocrystic material assimilated from the wall rocks. The range of
13C values determined for flake graphite in the igneous rocks (–26.5 to –13.8) overlaps the range for flake graphite in the wall rocks (–26.0 to –16.7), and spatial correlation of some
13C values in the plutons and wall rocks supports the assimilation mechanism. The textures of fine-grained irregular aggregates or spherulites of graphite, on the other hand, indicate that they formed along with secondary hydrous silicates and carbonates during retrograde reactions between the primary silicates and a carbon-bearing aqueous fluid phase. Relative to coexisting flake graphite, spherulitic graphite shows isotopic shifts ranging from 1.9 higher to 1.4 lower in both igneous and metasedimentary samples.The observed isotopic shifts and the association of spherulitic graphite with hydrous silicates are explained by dehydration of C-O-H fluids initially on or near the graphite saturation boundary. Hydration of silicates causes dehydration of the fluid and drives the fluid composition to the graphite saturation surface. Continued dehydration of the fluid then requires coprecipitation of secondary graphite and hydrous silicates and drives the fluid toward either higher or lower CO2/CH4 depending upon the inital bulk composition. Isotopic shifts in graphite formed at successive reaction stages are explained by fractionation of 13C between secondary graphite and the evolving fluid because 13C is preferentially concentrated into CO2 relative to CH4.Epigenetic graphite in two vein deposits assiciated with the contacts of these igneous rocks is generally enriched in 13C (–15.7 to –11.6) relative to both the igneous and wall-rock
13C values. Values of
13C vary by up to 3.4 within veins, with samples taken only 3 cm apart differing by 2.0 These variations in
13C correlate with textural evidence showing sequential deposition of different generations of graphite in the veins from fluids which differed in proportions of carbon species or isotopic composition (or both). 相似文献

The Mount Lofty Ranges comprises interlayered marbles, metapsammites, and metapelites that underwent regional metamorphism during the Delamarian Orogeny at 470–515 Ma. Peak metamorphic conditions increased from lowermost biotite grade (350–400°C) to migmatite grade (700°C) over 50–55 km parallel to the lithological strike of the rocks. With increasing metamorphic grade, 18O values of normal metapelites decrease from 14–16 to as low as 9.0, while 18O values of calcite in normal marbles decrease from 22–24 to as low as 13.2 These isotopic changes are far greater than can be accounted for by devolatilisation, implying widespread fluid-rock interaction. Contact metamorphism appears not to have affected the terrain, suggesting that fluid flow occurred during regional metamorphism. Down-temperature fluid flow from synmetamorphic granite plutons (18O=8.4–8.6) that occur at the highest metamorphic grades is unlikely to explain the resetting of oxygen isotopes because: (a) there is a paucity of skarns at granite-metasediment contacts; (b) the marbles generally do not contain low-XCO2 mineral assemblages; (c) there is insufficient granite to provide the required volumes of water; (d) the marbles and metapelites retain a several permil difference in 18O values, even at high metamorphic grades. The oxygen isotope resetting may be accounted for by along-strike up-temperature fluid flow during regional metamorphism with time-integrated fluid fluxes of up to 5x109 moles/m2 (105 m3/m2). If fluid flow occurred over 105–106 years, estimated intrinsic permeabilities are 10-20 to 10-16m2. Variations in 18O at individual outcrops suggest that time-integrated fluid fluxes and intrinsic permeabilities may locally have varied by at least an order of magnitude. A general increase in XCO2 values of marble assemblages with metamorphic grade is also consistent with the up-temperature fluid-flow model. Fluids in the metapelites may have been derived from these rocks by devolatilisation at low metamorphic grades; however, fluids in the marbles were probably derived in part from the surrounding siliceous rocks. The marble-metapelite boundaries preserve steep gradients in both 18O and XCO2 values, suggesting that across-strike fluid fluxes were much lower than those parallel to strike. Up-temperature fluid flow may also have formed orthoamphibole rocks and caused melting of the metapelites at high grades.This paper is a contribution to IGCP Project 304 Lower Crustal Processes 相似文献

Zusammenfassung Die geophysikalischen Untersuchungen am Störkörper von Bramsche, ca. 20 km N Osnabrück, deuten auf einen basischen Intrusivkörper in ca. 5 km Tiefe. Hohe Inkohlungsgrade in karbonischen bis kretazischen Sedimenten lassen eine starke Wärmequelle mit einem bis zu den Karbonhorsten südlich und westlich Osnabrück reichenden Kontakthof vermuten, mit einem Maximum der Inkohlung im Gebiet der geophysikalischen Anomalie.Während sich an den Karbonhorsten um Osnabrück sulfidisch-barytische Erze kretazischen Alters finden, fehlen jegliche Vererzungsspuren im Zentrum der Anomalie. Hier könnten lediglich Pyrophyllit und Quarzitisierungen im Malm des Gehns und das Vorkommen von Gümbelit im Piesberg-Karbon auf Auswirkungen der Intrusion hinweisen. Ausbildung (Faseraggregate der Phyllosilikate) und geologisches Auftreten (keine laterale Verteilung) sprechen aber für eine im weitesten Sinne lateral-sekretionäre Entstehung.Experimente vonNoll (1936) undAlthaus (1966) ergaben eine Bildungstemperatur für Pyrophyllit von ca. 390° C. Es finden sich jedoch keine pegmatitisch-pneumatolytischen oder katahydrothermalen Mobilisate in diesem Gebiet. Somit sollte die Bildungstemperatur für den Pyrophyllit niedriger gewesen sein. Selbst wenn die Bildungstemperatur bekannt wäre, wäre es schwierig, den hydrothermal gebildeten Pyrophyllit als geologisches Thermometer zu benutzen.- Geothermische Überlegungen zur Kalkulation der Intrusionstemperatur lassen sich hier somit nur noch mit Hilfe des Inkohlungsgrades vornehmen.

Geophysical researches at the Bramsche anomaly, about 20 km north of Osnabrück in NW-Germany indicate a basic intrusive body at the depth of about 5 km. A big source of heat with a contact zone reaching to the Carboniferous horsts south and west of Osnabrück is supposed by the increase of coalification in Carboniferous up to Cretaceous sediments, which has the highest degrees of coalification in the region of the geophysical anomaly.While there are sulfide deposits with barytic gangue of Cretaceous age at the Carboniferous horsts near Osnabrück, there are no ore-traces in the centre of the anomaly. Only the occurence of pyrophyllite and quartzites in the Malm of the Gehn-hills and the occurrence of gümbelite (Mg-hydromuscovite) in the Carboniferous sediments of Piesberg-horst may indicate the influence of the intrusion. - But habit (fibre-aggregates of the phyllosilicates) and geologic occurence (no lateral distribution) of these mineralisations suggest a formation by lateral secretion in a broader meaning of the term.Experiments byNoll (1936) andAlthaus (1966) proved a temperature of about 390° C for the formation of pyrophyllite. But there are no pegmatitic-pneumatolytic or kata-hydrothermal mobilisations in this district. Therefore it is assumed that the temperature of the formation may be lower under other conditions. Even if the temperature of this formation were known, it would be difficult to use pyrophyllite — formed under hydrothermal conditions — as a geologic thermometer. - Geothermal conclusions to calculate the temperature of the intrusion are only possible by using the decrease of volatile matter of the coals.
Résumé Les recherches géophysicales du corps failleux de Bramsche, à environ 20 km au nord d'Osnabrück font penser à un corps intrusit basique à 5 km sous la surface. De grands degrés d'houillification en des sédiments carbonifères et crétacés révèlent une forte source de chaleur avec une auréole de contact s'étendant jusqu'aux horsts carbonifères au sud et à l'ouest d'Osnabrück, avec un maximum d'houillification dans la région de l'anomalie géophysicale.Bien qu'on trouve des airains crétacés sulfurés avec barytine, aucune trace de minéralisation n'est visible au centre de l'anomalie. Ce n'est que la pyrophyllite et les quartzites dans le Malm du Gehn et l'existence de gümbelite (Mghydro-muscovite) dans le Piesberg-Karbon qui peuvent indiquer des effets d'intrusion. La structure et l'existence géologique font plutôt penser à une genèse latéralement sécrétionaire. Des conclusions géothermiques pour calculer la température d'intrusion ne sont à entreprendre qu'à l'aide du degré d'houillification.

New sulphur and sulphate-oxygen isotope measurements for the main discordant and stratiform lead-zinc-barite orebodies at Silvermines Co. Tipperary, allow reappraisal of previously offered differing interpretations (Graham, 1970; Greig et al., 1971) of the bearing of sulphur isotopes on the genesis of this important Irish deposit. The following aspects of the data are confirmed: barite 34 S-values range from 17–21, similar to lower Carboniferous seawater sulphate: stratiform sulphide lens pyrites have 34 S-values ranging from –13 to –36; vein sulphide 34 S-values range from –8 to 4; sulphide 34 S-values increase upwards and outwards respectively in the related discordant and stratiform G orebodies; galena-sphalerite isotope palaeotemperatures are not too consistent, ranging from 40 to 430°C (using the calibration of Czamanske and Rye (1974). New facts are as follows: barite 18O-values range from –13 to –17, stratiform barites ranging from 13 to 14.5; sulphides separated from a single stratiform ore lens hand specimen usually have 34 Ssl > 34 Sga > 34 Spy; the outward decrease in 34 S-values in the stratiform G orebody is confined to the first few hundred feet only; pyrite 34 S-values progressively increase downwards through one stratiform sulphide orebody; yet variations of 13 occur within a single colloform pyrite structure from another stratiform orebody. It is concluded that there were at least two sources of sulphur, seawater sulphate and deep-seated sulphur. The former was the dominant source of all sulphate and, via biogenic reduction, of the sulphur in the bulk of the stratiform sulphide. The latter was the source of the sulphur in the vein sulphides. There was minimal isotopic interaction between the cool seawater sulphate and the warm unwelling ore fluid sulphur species, even though the latter precipitated under near isotopic equilibrium conditions when the temperature dropped and/or the pH and Eh increased. The lack of isotopic equilibrium between pyrite and ore sulphides in the stratiform ore lenses may result from the latter having precipitated slightly later than the former because of solubility relationships. Overall the present isotopic evidence supports considerable geological evidence favoring a syngenetic origin for the stratiform Silvermines orebodies. 相似文献

18O/16O ratios have been measured for whole rock samples and mineral separates of granulitic rocks in the very old precambrian shield of In Ouzzal (Sahara). Isotopic fractionations are low and indicate temperatures higher or similar to those found by numerous workers on granitic rocks.The 18O of whole rock samples are low and homogeneous (5,5<<7.8). As the rocks are clearly of detrital origin, this homogeneity can be explained either by isotopic equilibration with upper mantle material by means of CO2 rich fluids (Touret, 1971), or by isotopic inertia of minerals during the mainly detrital processes that gave rise to the series. The latter explanation more or less implies that the parent material of the detrital series originated by magmatic differenciation. 相似文献

Oxygen and hydrogen isotope studies of a number of granite suites and mineral separates from the New England Batholith indicate that O18 can be used to discriminate the major granite protoliths. The granite suites previously subdivided on the basis of mineralogical and geochemical criteria into S-type (sedimentary) and I-type (igneous) have O18 values consistently higher in the S-type granites (10.4–12.5) than in the spatially related I-type plutons (7.7–9.9). There appears to be a systematic variation in O18 from the most S-type to the most I-type granites, the dividing point between the two occuring at O18 equal to 10. A group of leucocratic granites that form about half of the batholith and difficult to classify mineralogically and geochemically is found to have low O18 values (6.4–8.1), suggesting an affinity to the most I-type granites. A single leucogranite pluton with minor muscovite has a O18 of 9.6 which is significantly higher than other leucogranites indicating a different origin perhaps involving amphibole fractionation.The behavior of D in the plutonic rocks is much less systematic than O18. Excluding samples collected adjacent to major faults, the D values show a rough positive correlation with water content similar to, but less pronounced than, the trend previously observed in the Berridale Batholith, southeastern Australia. This relation is considered to reflect an interaction between meteoric water and the granites, the largest effect being observed in samples with the least amount of water. Of note is the generally lower D values of the upper Paleozoic New England Batholith compared with the Silurian Berridale Batholith. This difference may be related to a near equatorial paleolatitude of 22 °S in the Silurian and near polar paleolatitudes in the late Carboniferous that have been inferred for these regions. Granite samples collected from near major faults, and one ignimbrite sample of rhyodacite composition, have very low D values (less than –120) suggesting a much greater degree of interaction with meteoric water. 相似文献

DC and AC electrical conductivities were measured on samples of two different crystals of the mineral aegirine (NaFeSi2O6) parallel () and perpendicular () to the [001] direction of the clinopyroxene structure between 200 and 600 K. Impedance spectroscopy was applied (20 Hz–1 MHz) and the bulk DC conductivity DC was determined by extrapolating AC data to zero frequency. In both directions, the log DC – 1/T curves bend slightly. In the high- and low-temperature limits, differential activation energies were derived for measurements [001] of EA 0.45 and 0.35 eV, respectively, and the numbers [001] are very similar. The value of DC [001] with DC(300 K) 2.0 × 10–6 –1cm–1 is by a factor of 2–10 above that measured [001], depending on temperature, which means anisotropic charge transport. Below 350 K, the AC conductivity () (/2=frequency) is enhanced relative to DC for both directions with an increasing difference for rising frequencies on lowering the temperature. An approximate power law for () is noted at higher frequencies and low temperatures with () s, which is frequently observed on amorphous and disordered semiconductors. Scaling of () data is possible with reference to DC, which results in a quasi-universal curve for different temperatures. An attempt was made to discuss DC and AC results in the light of theoretical models of hopping charge transport and of a possible Fe2+ Fe3+ electron hopping mechanism. The thermopower (Seebeck effect) in the temperature range 360 K < T <770 K is negative in both directions. There is a linear – 1/T relationship above 400 K with activation energy E 0.030 eV [001] and 0.070 eV [001]. 57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy was applied to detect Fe2+ in addition to the dominating concentration of Fe3+. 相似文献

The stable isotopic composition (13C and 18O) and elemental (Sr and Mg) of marine molluscs are presented for Carditacea and Solenacea shells collected off the Mediterranean coast of Egypt. Based on shell microstructures and mineralogy, the bivalve shells are preserved in their original mineralogy and chemistry.The Sr and Mg concentrations of the bivalve shells have mean values of 1960 ppm and 226 ppm respectively. The stable isotopic composition generally show high values of 18O and 13C. The 18O values range from +0.1 to –1.8 PDB and most shells are highly enriched in13C; averaging +2.5 PDB. These elemental and isotopic signatures are analogous to modern marine bivalves from other localities.The oxygen and carbon isotopes, together with the calculated temperatures, suggest that the aragonitic bivalve shells were precipitated in isotopic equilibrium from warm marine waters. 相似文献

Because multidimensional ARMA processes have great potential for the simulation of geological parameters such as aquifer permeability, it was important to resolve which of two proposed alternative methods should be used for determining the two-dimensional weighting parameter, , for a unilateral ARMA (1, 0) process on a square net.

The Ordovician volcano-sedimentary succession of Erquy (northern Brittany) is made of immature sediments thermally metamorphosed at the contact of intruding basic sills. Pillow lavas constitute the upper part of the sequence. The trace element geochemistry of sills and pillow lavas suggests that they were derived from a tholeiitic source located beneath a passive margin. This volcanic sequence was metamorphosed under low to moderate greenschist facies conditions. In this study the direction and amplitude of chemical and isotopic fluxes in the basalt-sediment-water system were established and the oxygen and hydrogen isotope compositions of the aqueous fluid that reacted with the volcanic rocks were characterized. Cationic thermometry on chlorites and isotopic thermometry on plagioclase-chlorite pairs indicate closure metamorphic temperatures in the range 200–250°C for the basaltic sills. Stable isotope compositions of iron-rich chlorites (18O-5.5; D from-60 to-50) and plagioclases (18O from +9 to +10) reveal that the source of the fluid was certainly seawater. The 18O variations within the sills are strongly correlated with the rate of progress of the main metamorphic reaction:clinopyroxene+plagioclase+ilmenite chlorite+albite+epidote+quartz+sphene that produced major element mobility at the scale of the volcanosedimentary sequence. Calculation of elemental fluxes by mass balance combined with oxygen isotopic compositions of basalts shows that the highest water-rock ratios (1) were at sill-sediment boundaries and within pillow lavas at the top of the pile. The volcanosedimentary sequence of Erquy was a net sink for Na and a source for Ca. No Mg uptake could be detected whereas the hydrothermal alteration of the sediments released Fe, Si, and K trapped by the volcanic rocks. The 18O value of the fluid reacting with sills appears to have shifted no more than +4 after percolation at low temperature through immature sediments (18O12). The Erquy volcano-sedimentary sequence represents a marine hydrothermal system dominated by low-temperature exchange which allowed a general 18O-enrichment of the volcanic rocks and a 18O-depletion of sediments. 相似文献

Low grade hydrothermally metamorphosed mafic rocks from the Iberian Pyrite Belt are enriched in 18O relative to the oxygen isotopic ratio of fresh basalt (+6.5±1). The observed
18O whole rock values range from +0.87 to +15.71 corresponding to positive isotopic shifts of +5 to +10, thus requiring isotopic exchange with fluids under conditions of high water:rock ratios at low temperatures. The lowest
18O observed corresponds to an albitized dolerite still and is compatible with independent geochemical data suggesting lower water: rock ratios for the alteration of these rocks.The isotope data are consistent with the hypothesis that the spilites from the Pyrite Belt were produced by interaction of basaltic material with sea water.Significant leaching of transition metals from the mafic rocks during alteration coupled with available sulphur isotopic data for the sulphide ores also suggest that sea water may have played an important role in the formation of ore deposits in the Iberian Pyrite Belt. 相似文献

The Myall Creek copper prospect is in unmetamorphosed carbonaceous dolosiltstone and sandstone at the base of the late Proterozoic (Adelaidean) Tapley Hill Formation. It contains disseminated, fine-grained chalcopyrite, zincian tennanite, bornite, chalcocite, pyrite, sphalerite and galena, and irregular to straight chalcopyrite-rich veinlets. Some ore minerals rim and/or partially replace pyrite or clastic grains. There is no evidence of hydrothermal activity. The 34SCDT values of pyrite and the other sulfides fall in the wide range –3.6 to +44.2. Dolomite in both mineralised and unmineralised samples has 13CPDB values concentrated around –3, and 18OSMOW values around +25. It is concluded that the mineralising fluids were near-neutral brines which leached metals from the basement and early Adelaidean rocks. They entered the Tapley Hill sediments at moderately low temperatures via permeable strata and faults. The metals were precipitated by biogenic H2S, and also fixed by reaction with iron sulfides and, possibly, organic matter. Continuing ascent of brines into the mineralised strata caused breakdown of detrital feldspars and Fe-Ti oxides, and some solution-remobilisation of early-formed sulfides. 相似文献

The occurrence of a charnockitised felsic gneiss adjacent to a marble/calc-silicate horizon at Nuliyam, southern India, has been cited in recent literature as a classic example of the dehydration of crustal rocks resulting from the advective infiltration of CO2-rich fluids generated from a local carbonate source. Petrographic study of the Nuliyam calc-silicate, however, reveals it to consist of abundant wollastonite and scapolite and contain locally discordant veins rich in wollastonite. At the pressure—temperature conditions proposed for charnockite formation in recent studies, 5 kbar and 725°C, this wollastonite-bearing mineral assemblage was stable in the presence of a fluid phase only if X
CO2 was near 0.25 and could not have coexisted with the fluid causing biotite breakdown and charnockite development in adjacent rocks (X
CO2>0.85). The stable coexistence of wollastonite and scapolite prohibits the calc-silicate from being a source for fluid driving charnockitisation at the required P-T conditions. Textural observations such as the limited replacement of wollastonite by calcite+quartz symplectites and mosaics, are consistent with late fluid infiltration into the calc-silicate. The extensive isotopic, chemical and mineral abundance data of Jackson and Santosh (1992) are re-interpreted and integrated with these observations to develop a model involving the infiltration of an externally derived CO2-rich fluid during high-temperature decompression. Increased charnockite development next to the calc-silicate has arisen because the calc-silicate acted as a relatively unreactive and impermeable barrier to fluid transport and caused fluid ponding beneath antiformal closures. The Nuliyam charnockite/calc-silicate locality is an example of a structural trap in a metamorphic setting rather than a site where charnockite formation can be attributed to local fluid sources. 相似文献

Carbon and oxygen isotopic covariations in hydrothermal calcites 总被引：5，自引：0，他引：5
Isotopic covariations of carbon and oxygen in hydrothermal calcites are quantitatively modeled in terms of the following three mixing processes: (1) mixing between two different fluids which leads to the precipitation of calcite; (2) mixing between fluid and rock: (a) calcite precipitation due to fluid/rock interaction, (b) secondary alteration of primary calcite by interaction with a subsequent fluid. The models are derived from mass balance equations. A distinction among the three mixing processes can be made on a
13C vs
18O diagram, which places important constraints on the genesis of hydrothermal mineralization. The variables which control the ultimate isotopic composition of hydrothermal calcites include the composition of the initial fluid and the wallrock, temperature, and dissolved carbon species. Owing to significant temperature-dependent fractionation effects during equilibrium precipitation of calcite from a hydrothermal fluid, the mixing processes may be distinguished by telltale patterns of isotopic data in
13C vs
18O space. In particular, caution must be exercised in postulating the fluid mixing as the cause for mineral deposition. This is demonstrated for hydrothermal Pb-Zn deposits in the western Harz Mountains, Germany. A positive correlation between
13C and
18O values is observed for calcites from the Bad Grund deposit in the Upper Harz. Two sample profiles through calcite veins show similar correlations with the lowest -values at the center of the veins and the highest -values at the vein margins. Because the correlation array has a greater slope than for calcite precipitation at equilibrium in a closed system and because fluid mixing may not proceed perpendicular to the vein strike, it is assumed that a fluid/rock interaction is responsible for the observed correlation and thus for the precipitation of calcite. A deep-seated fluid is inferred with a
13C value of — 7% and a
18O value of +10%., as well as H2CO3 as the dominant dissolved carbon species; precipitation temperatures of the calcites are estimated to be about 280 170°C. Quite different isotopic distributions are observed for calcites from the St. Andreasberg deposit in the Middle Harz. An alteration model is suggested based mainly on the isotopic distribution through a calcite vein. In addition to a primary fluid which has the same isotopic composition as that in the Bad Grund deposit and thus seems to be responsible for the precipitation of calcite associated with sulfides, an evolved, HCO

Oxygen isotope analyses of 101 samples from the Marcy Anorthosite Massif (61 from this study, 40 from Taylor 1969), indicate that two major and distinct processes of crustal contamination have affected the massif. Ninety percent of the 93 samples with over 65% plagioclase are enriched in 18O by 2.6 relative to normal anorthosites or gabbros: the average 18O for 83 enriched samples is 9.5 Depletions in 18O occur in 8% of the samples which have values ranging from 3.0 to 5.8 Only 2 of the samples fall within the normal magmatic range for anorthosites.Low 18O values of 3.0 to 5.8 in the anorthosite occur only near contacts, and a gradient in 18O occurs near the contact within the border zone of the massif. Low 18O values in both the anorthosite and adjacent wollastonite skarns (with 18O down to –1.3) were probably caused by isotopic exchange with heated meteoric water when the anorthosite intruded at shallow levels, prior to Grenvilleage ( 1.1 by) granulite facies metamorphism.The 18O-enrichment was ascribed to exchange between anorthosite and 18O-rich marble by means of a pervasive, H2O-CO2 fluid during the regional metamorphism by Taylor (1969). However, a number of lines of evidence argue against this hypothesis: 1) the preservation of premetamorphic low 18O values in anorthosite from the border zone as well as preserved gradients in 18O from a number of localities, 2) mass balance calculations of the amount of marble necessary to produce the 18O enrichment 3) metamorphic phase equilibria which buffer
and
to low values, and, 4) recent oxygen isotope analyses show homogeneity which indicates that magmatic oxygen isotope compositions have been preserved. We evaluated the importance of magmatic assimilation of country rock at the present level of intrusion as an alternative cause of the 18Oenrichment. Samples from 2 distinct lobes of the massif were analyzed: the NE lobe where xenoliths of metasedimentary country rock are common, and the NW lobe, where xenoliths are scarce and the country rock is dominantly granitic. The mean values of 18O for these two lobes are 9.6 in the NE and 9.3 in the NW. Thus, magmatic assimilation at the present level of exposure probably had only localized and relatively minor effects on the oxygen isotope composition of the massif. This conclusion is supported by Rb/Sr data: variations in Rb content and (87Sr/ 86Sr)i show that such crustal contamination is localized, generally occurring only in samples near the border zone. All of the available results suggest that the 18O-enrichment is a magmatic feature, acquired prior to intrusion at the present level of exposure. 相似文献

Mesothermal gold vein mineralization of the Samdong mine,Youngdong mining district,Republic of Korea 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
Mesothermal gold mineralization at the Samdong mine (5.5–13.5 g/ton Au), Youngdong mining district, is situated in massive quartz veins up to 1.2 m wide which fill fault fractures within upper amphibolite to epidote-amphibolite facies, Precambrian-banded biotite gneiss. The veins are mineralogically simple, consisting of iron- and base-metal sulfides and electrum, and are associated with weak hydrothermal alteration zones (<0.5 m wide) characterized by silicification and sericitization. Fluid inclusion data and equilibrium thermodynamic interpretation of mineral assemblages indicate that the quartz veins were formed at temperatures between 425 and 190°C from relatively dilute aqueous fluids (4.5–13.8 wt. % equiv NaCl) containing variable amounts of CO2 and CH4. Evidence of fluid unmixing (CO2 effervescence) during the early vein formation indicates approximate pressures of 1.3–1.9 kbars, corresponding to minimum depths of 5–7 km under a purely lithostatic pressure regime. Gold deposition occurred mainly at temperatures between 345 and 240 °C, likely due to decreases in sulfur activity accompanying fluid unmixing. The 34S values of sulfide minerals (-3.0 to 5.3 ), and the measured and calculated O-H isotope compositions of ore fluids (18O = 5.7 to 7.6; = –74 to –80) indicate that mesothermal gold mineralization at the Samdong mine may have formed from dominantly magmatic hydrothermal fluids, possibly related to intrusion of the nearby ilmenite-series, Kimcheon Granite of Late Jurassic age. 相似文献

The stable carbon isotopic composition of the planktonic foraminifera Globigerinoides sacculifer and G. ruber (white) and sedimentary organic matter from the northern Gulf of Aqaba have been investigated to estimate changes in 13CDIC in surface waters during the last 1,000 years. The high sedimentation rates at the core sites (about 54 cm/Kyear) provide high temporal resolution (~10 years). Recent sediments at the top of the cores reflect conditions younger than 1950. The 13C records of the planktonic foraminifera from three multicores display similar trends, showing a uniform and consistent pattern before the 1750s, and a gradual decrease of approximately 0.63 over the last two centuries. This decrease seems to track the decrease of 13CDIC in surface waters, which is mainly caused by the increase of anthropogenic input of 13C-depleted CO2 into the atmosphere. Similarly, a trend towards lighter values of the carbon isotopic composition of sedimentary organic matter (13Corg) during the last 200 years supports the interpretation obtained from the planktonic foraminiferal 13C. Furthermore, direct measurements of seawater show that 13C of the dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) in the northern Gulf of Aqaba has decreased by about 0.44 during the period 1979–2000. The average annual decrease is 0.021, which is similar to that observed globally. The 13C values of planktonic foraminifera combined with organic matter 13C from marine sediments are good indicators for reconstructing past changes in atmospheric CO2 concentrations from the northern Gulf of Aqaba. 相似文献

Kyser, O'Neil, and Carmichael (1981, 1982) measured the
18O values of coexisting minerals from peridotite nodules in alkali basalts and kimberlites, interpreting the nodules as equilibrium assemblages. Using Ca-Mg-Fe element-partition geothermometric data, they proposed an empirical18O/16O geothermometer: T(°C)=1,151–173–68
2, where is the per mil pyroxene-olivine fractionation. However, this geothermometer has an unusual crossover at 1,150 °C, and in contrast to what might be expected during closed-system equilibrium exchange, the most abundant mineral in the nodules (olivine) shows a much greater range in
18O (+4.4 to +7.5) than the much less abundant pyroxene (all 50 pyroxene analyses from spinel peridotites lie within the interval +5.3 to +6.5). On
18O-olivinevs.
18O-pyroxene diagrams, the mantle nodules exhibit data arrays that cut across the
18O=zero line. These arrays strongly resemble the non-equilibrium quartzfeldspar and feldspar-pyroxene
18O arrays that we now know are diagnostic of hydrothermally altered plutonic igneous rocks. Thus, we have re-interpreted the Kyser et al. data as non-equilibrium phenomena, casting doubt on their empirical geothermometer. The peridotite nodules appear to have been open systems that underwent metasomatic exchange with an external, oxygen-bearing fluid (CO2, magma, H2O, etc.); during this event, the relatively inert pyroxenes exchanged at a much slower rate than did the coexisting olivines and spinels, in agreement with available exchange-rate and diffusion measurements on these minerals. This accounts for the correlation between
18O pyroxene-olivine and the whole-rock
18O of the peridotites, which is a major difficulty with the equilibrium interpretation.Contribution No. 3978, Publications of the Division of Geological and Planetary Sciences, California Institute of Technology 相似文献
