早期形成的碳酸盐结核在埋藏期间会经历多种碳酸盐矿物相沉淀的复杂胶结作用,岩石学研究是探究结核成因的关键。通过野外剖面观察、岩石学观察和阴极发光技术,分析了鄂尔多斯盆地渭北地区上三叠统延长组长7油层组泥页岩中各种形状的方解石和白云石结核中自生碳酸盐矿物的特征。这些结核为成岩早期的产物,构成结核的自生碳酸盐矿物特征显著:(1)球粒方解石结核中,方解石呈纤维状或刃片状,球粒间充填晶粒方解石或因压实呈贴面结合,纤维状方解石发桔红色和暗红色2种光,刃片状方解石发暗红色光;(2)粉晶方解石结核中,方解石呈他形粒状,含有机质包裹体或纤维状晶形残余,晶间含沥青和纤维状方解石残余,主要发暗红色光;(3)白云石结核有泥晶和粉晶2种晶体类型,粉晶白云石结核含较多泥质,泥质条带或有机质条带处常见纤柱状白云石;(4)沿裂缝充填的方解石和白云石常呈纤维状或纤柱状结构,发暗红色光或不发光。研究区长7油层组碳酸盐结核中的方解石和白云石具有不同的成因类型和复杂的胶结作用:球粒方解石和泥晶白云石代表了结核开始形成时的胶结作用,可以准确地反映结核的成因;粉晶方解石、粉晶白云石反映了交代成因;裂缝中纤维状、纤柱状方解石和白云石集合体则为结核经历了较强压实作用之后充填裂缝而成。  相似文献

为分析陆相页岩中方解石的成因及其对储层的影响,以四川盆地下侏罗统大安寨段的介壳泥岩与灰岩夹层为主要研究对象,利用X-射线衍射、普通薄片、岩芯观察、阴极发光及电子探针测试手段,识别出文石转化方解石、胶结物方解石和重结晶作用形成的方解石。在同生期和成岩早期,生物介壳中的文石转化为泥晶无铁方解石,阴极发光为橙黄色。成岩早期,生物介壳边缘可形成纤维状第一世代无铁方解石胶结物。在成岩晚期,岩石孔隙中形成颗粒状铁方解石胶结物,阴极发光为暗色。同时,部分介壳中的泥晶方解石新生变形为斑块状细晶方解石或柱状方解石。根据方解石的存在形式可知,方解石在成岩演化过程中,经历了转化、压实、溶解、胶结和重结晶作用。其中,溶解作用改善储层的物性。压实、胶结和重结晶作用破坏储集空间。统计裂缝密度发现,元坝地区大安寨段层理缝最为发育,涪陵地区大安寨段以层理缝和溶蚀缝为主。结果表明,方解石介壳有利于大安寨段内岩石层理缝和溶蚀缝的产生。  相似文献

鄂尔多斯盆地南部铜川地区露头区中三叠统延长组长7段细砂岩、粉砂岩、泥质粉砂岩、粉砂质泥岩层序中发育有大量圆球状、椭球状、扁球状碳酸盐岩结核,对于其成因存在争议.对铜川地区多个剖面的结核开展宏观描述,在微观薄片观察基础上开展岩石矿物组成、稳定同位素、簇同位素以及微区同位素等分析,特别是选取一个结核开展了详细的解剖.结果显示结核成分以方解石为主,少量白云石;内部结构有差异,在球体横切面上明显分为两个圈层;碳同位素值正偏,由内部圈层向外部圈层降低;氧同位素与碳同位素变化趋势一致,计算结核形成古温度变化区间为28.6~76.5℃;簇同位素揭示结核中部形成温度为42.9℃.认为该类结核为早期发酵带内细菌参与甲烷生成作用形成,甲烷菌活动引起有机质碳同位素分馏,碳酸盐结核中方解石和白云石圆球粒可能是蓝细菌细胞方解石化或白云石化的结果.根据埋藏史,认为该类结核形成于成岩作用早期,后期在成岩过程中叠加生长,同心环层结构明显.  相似文献

Sparry calcite fracture fills and concretion body cements in concretions from the Flodigarry Shale Member of the Staffin Shale Formation, Isle of Skye, Scotland, entrap and preserve mineral and organic materials of sedimentary and diagenetic origin. Fatty acids are a major component of the lipids recovered by decarbonation and comprise mainly n-alkanoic and α-ω dicarboxylic acids. Two generations of fracture-fill calcite (early brown and later yellow) and the concretion body microspar yield significantly different fatty acid profiles. Early brown calcites yield mainly medium-chain n-alkanoic acids with strong even predominance; later yellow calcites are dominated by α-ω dicarboxylic acids with no even predominance. Both fracture fills lack the long-chain n-alkanoic and α-ω dicarboxylic acids additionally recovered from the concretion bodies. The absence of longer chain acids in the calcite spar fracture fills is inferred to result from the transport of fatty acids by septarian mineralising fluids whereby low-aqueous solubility of longer chain acids or their salts accounts for their relative immobility.Comparative experiments have been carried out using conventional solvent extraction on the concretion body and associated shales, both decarbonated and untreated. Extracted lipid yields are higher, but the fatty acids probably derive from mixed locations in the rock including both kerogen- and carbonate-associated lipid pools. Only experiments involving decarbonation yielded α-ω dicarboxylic acids in molecular distributions probably controlled mainly by fluid transport. Alkane biomarker ratios indicate very low thermal maturity has been experienced by the concretions and their host sediments. Septarian cracks lined by brown calcite formed during early burial. Microbial CO2 from sulphate-reducing bacteria was probably the main source of mineralising carbonate. Emplacement of the later septarian fills probably involved at least one episode of fluid invasion.  相似文献

Iron‐bearing concretions are valuable records of oxidation states of subsurface waters, but the first concretions to form can be altered drastically during later diagenetic events. Distinctive concretions composed of heavy rinds of iron oxide that surround iron‐poor, mud‐rich cores are common along bases of fluvial cross‐bed sets of the Cretaceous Dakota Formation, Nebraska, USA. Concretion rinds thicken inward and cores contain 46 to 89% void space. Millimetre‐scale spherosiderites are abundant in palaeosols that developed in floodplain facies. Evolution of rinded concretions began when intraformational clasts were eroded from sideritic soils, transported, abraded and deposited in river channels. Alteration of siderite and formation of rinds occurred much later, perhaps in the Quaternary when sandstone pore waters became oxic. Dakota concretions are analogous to ‘rattlestones’ in Pleistocene fluvial channels of The Netherlands, and their rinded structure is analogous to that of iron‐rich concretions in the aeolian Navajo Sandstone of Utah. In all three deposits, rinded concretions formed when pre‐existing, siderite‐cemented concretions were oxidized within a sand matrix. Unlike fluvial examples, siderite in the Navajo Sandstone was autochthonous and of late diagenetic origin, having precipitated from carbon dioxide and methane‐enriched waters moving through folded and jointed strata. Iron‐rich rinds formed in all these strata because concretion interiors remained anaerobic, even as oxygen accumulated in the pore waters of their surrounding, permeable matrix. Iron oxide first precipitated at redox boundaries at concretion perimeters and formed an inward‐thickening rind. Acid generated by the oxidation reaction drove siderite dissolution to completion, creating the iron‐poor core. Iron‐oxide rinds are indicators of the former presence of siderite, a mineral that forms only under reducing conditions, during either early or late diagenesis. Siderite is vulnerable to complete oxidation upon exposure, so the distinctive rinded concretions are valuable clues that aid in deciphering diagenetic histories and for recognizing methanic floodplain palaeoenvironments and wet palaeoclimate.  相似文献

A study of septarian concretions from late Cretaceous shale sequences of Texas and northern Mexico reveals complex burial-exhumation histories. First generation concretions and pre-fossilized moulds formed in silty clays before significant compaction occurred. Syneresis cracks developed and were filled by length slow fibrous calcite with a decrease in iron content toward the centre of each vein; in some cases this was succeeded by growth of equant or bladed calcite. Subsequent erosion of enclosing sediment caused collapse and break up of concretions, leaving fragments and some unbroken concretions exposed to encrustation and boring on the sea floor. These were subsequently buried and enclosed in a second generation of concretions, which also developed syneresis cracks. The calcite that filled these latter cracks was generally bladed (sometimes followed by equant calcite) and contains more iron toward the centre of the vein. Differences between the calcite filling first and second generation septarian veins indicates changing diagenetic regimes during burial in the marine environment, without a major shift in diagenetic conditions, such as the introduction of meteoric waters. These conclusions have significant implications to cementation in ancient limestones, which show textural and chemical sequences similar to those present in the septarian concretions described.  相似文献

The crystallographic fabric of siderite in siderite concretions has been determined for upper Carboniferous (Westphalian‐A) non‐marine concretions and lower Jurassic (Pliensbachian) marine concretions. Compositional zoning indicates that individual siderite crystals grew over a period of changing pore water chemistry, consistent with the concretions being initially a diffuse patch of cement, which grew progressively. The siderite crystallographic fabric was analysed using the anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility, which is carried by paramagnetic siderite. The siderite concretions from marine and non‐marine formations exhibit differences in fabric style, although both display increases in the degree of preferred siderite c‐axis orientation towards the concretion margins. The Westphalian non‐marine siderites show a preferred orientation of siderite c‐axes in the bedding plane, whereas the Pliensbachian marine siderites have a preferred orientation of c‐axes perpendicular to the bedding. In addition, a single marine concretion shows evidence of earlier formed, inclined girdle‐type fabrics, which are intergrown with later formed vertical c‐axis siderite fabrics. The marine and non‐marine fabrics are both apparently controlled by substrate processes at the site of nucleation, which was probably clay mineral surfaces. Siderite nucleation processes on the substrate were most probably controlled by the (bio?) chemistry of the pore waters, which altered the morphology and crystallographic orientation of the forming carbonate. The preferred crystallographic orientation of siderite results from the orientation of the nucleation substrate. Fabric changes across the concretions partially mimic the progressive compaction‐induced alignment of the clay substrates, while the concretion grew during burial.  相似文献

An injection dyke of fine-grained sandstone derived from the Kellaways Sand Formation intrudes overlying organic-rich shales and shell beds of the Lower Oxford Clay. The dyke shows cross-cutting relationships with early carbonate concretions, and fills uncompacted kosmoceratid ammonite shells both within the concretions and surrounding shales. Internally the dyke displays flow-like features, and the walls show lobate flow structures. Clasts of uncompacted Lower Oxford Clay and fragments of pyrite-rich concretions occur within the sandstone intrusions. The sandstone of the dyke was cemented by calcite identical to that precipitated in septarian cracks in the concretions. This cementation took place prior to final compaction of the Oxford Clay. The dyke has a sub-parallel relationship to the nearby Tinwell-Marholm fault suggesting that the dyke may be related to local tectonic events during the Middle Jurassic.  相似文献

ABSTRACT
Large septarian concretions from the Kimmeridge Clay, up to 1.2 m in diameter, have centres comprising anhedral calcite microspar passing into margins of radiating fibrous calcite microspar, with a pyrite-rich zone at the transition. Septarian veins formed and were lined with brown calcite synchronously with fibrous matrix growth, with white calcite precipitated in septarian cavities after concretion growth ceased. Septarian veins, filled only with white calcite, formed later, at the same time as the outermost calcite microspar crystals were enlarged.
The concretions were buried in the Late Jurassic to about 130 m, and in the Late Cretaceous to about 550 m, with uplift between. Oxygen isotopes show that the concretion grew throughout the first burial, with septarian veins forming from about 30 m depth onwards. Later septarian veins formed between about 200 and 500 m during the second burial.
Carbon isotopes show that the compact inner matrix grew in the sulphate reduction zone, the end of which is marked by the pyrite-enriched zone. Dissolving shells, and possibly minor methanogenic carbonate, slowly diluted sulphate reduction-zone carbonate during deeper burial. During early concretion growth, Mg and Sr were depleted in the pore water. During later stages of the first burial, Mg, Sr, Mn and Fe all increased, especially after concretion growth ceased. During the second burial, Fe, Mn and Mg decreased as calcite precipitated, implying relatively closed systems for these elements.
Synchronous formation of septarian fractures and fibrous calcite matrix shows that the Kimmeridge Clay became overpressured during the later stages of both burials.  相似文献

Septarian concretions are abundant in many Phanerozoic marine and marginal‐marine shales and mudstones. They range from a few centimetres to several metres in size and are spherical or ellipsoidal in morphology. In general, formation by localized calcite or siderite cementation in argillaceous sediments began under less than a few metres of burial. Septarian cracks vary widely in shape and configuration: included are networks of wide, vertically, radially and sometimes concentrically oriented, lenticular shrinkage cracks; and narrower, parallel‐sided, straight to irregular tension cracks locally accompanied by brecciation, and plumose and en échelon sigmoidal cracks indicative of shear stresses. Crack types are intergradational; many concretions exhibit multiple cracking events. Enclosed macrofossils and isopachous fibrous calcite cement that lines earlier formed cracks are commonly broken and displaced. In some cases, cracks contain injected lime mud and silt. These features, taken together, testify that cracking involved a spectrum of responses in concretion interiors, from loss of shear strength, dewatering and shrinkage to brittle failure, demonstrating variations in, and contrasts between, the rheological properties of the matrix and enclosed objects. Localization to interiors and outward tapering of lenticular cracks make a case for fracture partitioning and indicate that interiors were softer than exteriors at the time of shrinkage. Parallel‐sided cracks point to greater stiffness, and evolving crack shape in multiply cracked concretions shows that rigidity increased with time. Crack orientations indicate highly variable tensile and shear stress directions within individual concretions. Rupture, brecciation, displacement of fragments, loss of shear strength, liquefaction and injection of unconsolidated granular sediment suggest that deformation events were rapid, if not virtually instantaneous. Previous explanations for the internal cracking, such as gas generation, spontaneous chemical dehydration or localized overpressuring due to compaction, seem either untenable or fail to account for the spectrum of observed features. However, syndepositional earthquake‐induced shaking of cementing bodies of varying rigidity at shallow burial depths seems to be a plausible source for the requisite short‐lived, variable to anisotropic, high‐stress regime inside the concretions. Septarian concretions may thus preserve a signature of basin seismicity as it relates to their cementation history.  相似文献
