A field and laboratory study of the accuracy of a method commonly used to determine free sulphide concentrations in the porewater of marine sediments is presented. The method uses an ion-selective electrode (ISE), sensitive to the sulphide ion (S2−), in sediments buffered to high pH (>12) and is commonly used in regulatory monitoring programs to assess the impacts of open net-pen finfish aquaculture on local marine habitats. Here we report that on the timescale of field measurements, the accepted protocol can lead to significant bias of free sulphide measurements, with orders of magnitude higher concentration detected in the buffered sediment–porewater slurry than in porewater samples isolated and analysed separately. Laboratory experiments with model marine sediments and analysis of sediment composition indicate that this bias is likely introduced by the dissolution of particulate sulphides and/or sulphur present in the sediments under the intense alkaline conditions of the protocol. Recommendations for the modification and continued use of this commonly applied field methodology are discussed.  相似文献

A model is developed to explain the isotope fractionation effects produced in laboratory experiments involving the reduction of sulphate to hydrogen sulphide by the bacterium Desulfovibrio desulfuricans. The approach differs from previous ones in its use of zero-order kinetics to describe the uptake of sulphate by the bacterium. Expressions are developed which relate the overall isotope effects produced by the bacterium to the ratios of backward to forward flows between its internal sulphur reservoirs. Other applications of this type of model are discussed, including the differences of isotopic composition between sulphate and hydrogen sulphide in the Black Sea and an unusual isotope effect observed in the course of bacterial nitrate reduction.  相似文献

Summary Banded sulphide ores of the McArthur River type are characterized by large numbers of conformable, monomineralic sulphide bands. These appear to have formed prior to consolidation of the host sediments. This paper describes a series of laboratory experiments designed to test the possibility that the bands could have been generated by the migration of metal, sulphide, and possibly carbonate ions through unconsolidated sedimentary materials or slowly settling suspensions. It is concluded that ionic migration processes probably occur during the formation of these banded sulphide ores, in conjunction with the deposition of metalliferous mud layers.
Zusammenfassung Die Schichten der Schwefelerze des Typs vom McArthur Fluß sind charakterisiert durch eine Vielzahl von Parallelen, die ausschließlich aus Schwefelschichten bestehen. Diese scheinen sich vor der Verfestigung der Sedimentenmasse gebildet zu haben. Dieser Aufsatz beschreibt eine Reihe von Laboratoriums-Experimenten, die die Möglichkeit untersuchen sollten, ob diese Schichten entstehen konnten durch die Wanderung von Metall-, Schwefeloder möglicherweise Kohlensäure-Ionen durch noch nicht verfestigtes oder sich langsam setzendes Sedimentmaterial. Es wird daraus gefolgert, daß wahrscheinlich während der Formation dieser Schwefelerz-Schichten in Verbindung mit der Ablagerung metallhaltiger Schlammlagen Ionenwanderungen stattfinden.

The suitability of a new reagent, Kr6D, as a depressant for galena and sphalerite in a differential sulphide flotation stage has been tested. Small-scale laboratory flotation tests on pure sulphide minerals indicated that the reagent is capable of depressing both galena and sphalerite when used in small doses. At higher concentrations, chalcopyrite is also depressed. Single-stage batch-scale flotation tests have been carried out on bulk sulphide concentrates containing the three sulphide minerals. Kr6D has been compared with starch as a depressant both in the presence and in the absence of sulphur dioxide. In each case the new modifier has been shown to be more effective. When using sodium dichromate as a differential depressant in similar tests, it has been shown that the quantity necessary to achieve selectivity between chalcopyrite and galena may be considerably reduced if small quantities of Kr6D are added.  相似文献

The Ordovician Zn–Pb–Cu massive sulphide ore deposits of the Bathurst mining camp share many features with those of the Devonian/Carboniferous Iberian pyrite belt, particularly the tendency to large size (tonnage and metal content); shape, as far as can be determined after allowing for deformation; metal content, particularly Fe/Cu, Pb/Zn and Sn; mineral assemblages (pyrite + arsenopyrite ± pyrrhotite and lack or rarity of sulphates); sulphide textures (particularly framboidal pyrite); lack of chimney structures and rubble mounds; irregular metal or mineral zoning; and the low degree of zone refining compared to Hokuroku ores. The major differences between the provinces are the lack of vent complexes and the presence of Sn–Cu ores in the Iberian pyrite belt. There are also similarities in the geological setting of the two camps: both lie within continental terranes undergoing arc-continent and continent–continent collision, and in each case massive sulphide mineralisation followed ophiolite obduction; the ore deposits are associated with bimodal volcanic rocks derived from MORB and continental crust and marine shales; and mineralisation was locally accompanied or followed by deposition of iron formations.Fluid inclusion data from veins in stockworks from at least six of the Iberian massive sulphide deposits point to sulphide deposition having taken place in basins containing mostly spent saline, ore-forming fluids (brine pools), and it is suggested that most of the major features of the Bathurst deposits can be explained by similar processes. The proposed model is largely independent of ocean sulphate and O2 content, whereas low values of each are requisites for the current, spreading-plume model of sulphide deposition in the Bathurst camp.  相似文献

The high-resolution mapping of dissolved sulphide in modern sediment of a permanently stratified (meromictic) lake is possible using a novel sulphide imaging technique (called a 'sulphur print'). The technique is simple, easy to use and can map a relatively large area (up to several dm2). In situ sulphur prints from anoxic fine-grained sediments are able to reveal internal structures in apparently homogeneous materials. Sulphur prints have been used to examine the formation and distribution of dissolved sulphide in the sediment and water column of the meromictic Lake Cadagno (southern Switzerland). The prints show clearly that a previously unknown laminar convective flow of sulphide-free porewater occurs across the sediment–water interface. Such convective flow out of the sediment must be accompanied by convective flow of sulphide- and sulphate-rich lake water into the sediment, and may be an important mechanism for the accumulation of sulphur in the sediment.  相似文献

论硫化氢生成的地质条件   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
根据硫化氢的赋存环境、组成特征和热还原反应模拟试验等,提出硫化氢生成需具备五项基本地质条件:(1)地层中富含石膏;(2)富含还原剂—烃类物质;(3)较大埋深或较高的地温条件;(4)地层水作为介质和反应场所;(5)严密的封存体系。热还原反应必须在有水条件下才能进行,硫酸盐水解后的硫酸根是硫化氢的直接供体。硫化氢的生成实际经历了一个天然气向地层水的溶入和脱出过程,两者的密切关系造成含硫化氢天然气通常出现在气-水界面附近,密封条件极好的岩性气藏或构造气藏当中,构造低部位或气藏下倾方向。但是,后期构造抬升有可能造成硫化氢与地层水的分离。  相似文献

The principal copper deposits associated with Upper Creataceous — Laramian calc-alkaline volcano-plutonic complexes in the Bor district are classified as follows: Volcanogenic massive sulphide deposits are situated in andesitic volcanics, and are composed of pyrite and copper sulphides. Multistage deposition of mineral associations in this area was controlled mainly by secondary boiling of hydrothermal fluids rich in sulphur. Apart from cupriferous pyrite deposits, volcanogenic massive polymetallic deposits, containing a pyritic ZnCu+Pb association, have been found recently in hydrothermally altered dacite- and esite pyroclastics. Porphyry copper deposits are mainly situated in volcanic piles related to subvolcanic intrusions and/or hypabyssal plutons. Some porphyry copper deposits occur in the same structures with massive sulphide orebodies, lying above the porphyry copper system. Conglomerate-type ores consisting of clasts of massive sulphide in an andesitic pile have been discovered recently.  相似文献

Four metallogenic epochs occurred in different tectonic environments during theevolution of the Northern Qilian metallogenic province through the geological time. The Mid-dle Proterozoic metallogenic epoch witnessed the tectonic environment of crustal breakupcaused by mantle diapirism, in which ultramafic-mafic rocks were intruded along beep faultbelts and the superlarge Jinchuan magmatic Cu-Ni sulphide deposit was formed. In theMiddle-Late Proterozoic metallogenic epoch the crust was further broken to form anintracontinental rift, in which the Chenjiamiao style massive Cu-Fe sulphide deposits hosted bybasic volcanic tuff were formed in the lower volcano-sedimentary sequence, while the largesedex type Jingtieshan style Fe-Cu deposits were formed within the upper abyssal carbon-richargillaceous sedimentary sequence. The Early Palaeozoic saw the aulacogen environment, with-in which the Baiyinchang style superlarge massive base and precious metal sulphide depositshosted by quartz keratophyric tuff were formed in the Middle-Late Cambrian rifted island arcand the massive Cu-Zn sulphide deposits and magmatic chromite deposits associated with theophiolite suite were formed in the Early-Middle Ordovician, and the Honggou style massiveCu-Fe sulphide deposits hosted by spilite were formed in the Late Ordovician back-arc basinenvironment. In the Late Palaeozoic-Meso-Cenozoic, the metallogenic province went into anintracontinental orogenic stage characterized by compressive tectonic environment, in whichthere occurred carbonate-quartz vein type and tectono-alteration gold deposits associated withductile-shear structures.  相似文献

海底黑烟囱的识别研究及其科学意义   总被引:22,自引:4,他引:18  
现代海底黑烟囱广泛出现于大洋中脊、弧后盆地、浅海及大陆裂谷等环境,形成巨大规模的块状硫化物,并且在黑烟囱周围发现了化学自养细菌。海底硫化物黑烟囱具有明显的柱状-锥状构造形态,常保留通道构造,矿物同心圈状分带明显。黑烟囱的形成涉及热液流体与海水相互作用,外壁快速沉淀及通道内部硫化物结晶等过程。深部岩浆热源、热液沿裂隙集中流动和持续喷发,有利于形成大规模黑烟囱构造。海底硫化物丘体的钻探及其与地史时期块状硫化物的对比研究表明,它们具有相似的内部构造和矿床分带特征。黑烟囱的生长、垮塌以及丘体内部角砾化、交代、重结晶作用,有助于大规模矿床的形成。最后,在块状硫化物中寻找黑烟囱残片的研究,对于探讨成矿过程与早期生命活动具有重要意义。  相似文献

Six minor sulphide occurrences hosted by the Lower Devonian Buchan Group have been investigated. Sulphide minerals and associated phases are hosted by both dolostone and limestone lithologies along stylolitized bedding planes, cross‐cutting fractures, low angle minor faults and in cavities. Mineralization was closely associated with minor structures of inferred Tabberabberan age (Middle Devonian), which it appears to have post‐dated, but was largely strata‐bound in nature. The mineralogy of the occurrences is simple and characterized by the following generalized paragenesis which reflects the increasing oxidation state and pH of the mineralizing fluids: pyrite (pseudomorphous after marcasite)‐galena ± sphalerite ± pyrite‐dolomite ± barite‐calcite ± fluorite ± dolomite.

The sulphur isotope composition of sulphide minerals varies from ‐32.1 to +4.1‰, with iron and base metal sulphide minerals forming two distinct populations around ‐25‰ and 0‰, respectively. A single barite sample gives a sulphur isotope composition of +22.4‰, which is similar to that estimated for Early Devonian seawater. Fluid inclusions in fluorite and calcite homogenize at temperatures in the range 160 to 212° C and have average salinities of approximately 10 wt% NaCI eq. Sphalerite contains up to 1.81 wt% iron which correlates with colour, and up to 1.43 wt% cadmium. The Pb isotopic pattern of galena suggests a source region with U/Pb(= μ) lower than the crustal average, and a high Th/U.

A genetic hypothesis is proposed which involves the circulation of saline fluids through the Snowy River Volcanics, which directly underlie the Buchan Group, during or at some time after the Tabberabberan Orogeny. Although the Buchan occurrences show features characteristic of both Mississippi Valley‐type and stratiform ore deposits, they are most directly comparable to the epigenetic zones of Irish carbonate‐hosted base‐metal deposits. However, Pb‐Zn sulphide mineralization at Buchan appears to have been associated with minor compressional structures, suggesting that a simple correlation with the Irish deposits is not directly applicable.  相似文献

Most magmatic Ni–Cu–PGE sulphide deposits occur within long-lived magma pathways fed by high degree partial melts of the mantle. Holistic mineral-system analysis for such deposits has some parallels with dominantly hydrothermal systems, but also some important differences.Major provinces are associated with large volumes of magma erupted at margins of ancient Archaean cratons, and are associated with small intrusions through which large volumes of magmas have passed. There is no demonstrable association with any particular magma type, although in most provinces the ores are found associated with the most primitive available magmas, whatever these may be. Ore-bearing intrusions tend to form early in the evolution of the host province, although exceptions exist to this rule, and these intrusions typically account for very small proportions of the volumes of the province as a whole.Ore deposition is favoured by prolonged high-volume flow over a horizontal floor. This floor may take the form of the base of a channelized sill, tube or blade-shaped dyke, which account for most of the known host igneous bodies to significant ore deposits. Deposition mechanisms may be chemical or physical, but large high-grade deposits require a major component of transported sulphide liquid, initially carried as droplets. Late stage migration of sulphide liquid as gravity currents within intrusion networks, coupled with infiltration and melting of floor rocks, accounts for the common observation in mafic intrusion hosted deposits of cross cutting relationships between massive sulphides, host intrusions and country rocks.The following set of criteria is proposed in targeting and evaluating Ni–Cu–PGE sulphide systems: 1) nature of magmatism and relationship to pre-existing cratonic architecture; 2) magmatic and structural controls on the development of protracted-flow magma conduits; 3) access to crustal S sources at some point along the pathway; 4) favourable intrusion geometry and emplacement style for deposition, reworking and upgrading of sulphide magmas, and 5) favourable structural history and erosional level for preservation and detectability.These components can be translated into mappable geological criteria. At the predictive targeting scale, the key features are proximity to ancient cratonic boundaries and long-lived, trans-crustal structures, and relationship to voluminous mafic or ultramafic magmatism typically with high Mg and low Ti contents, but otherwise lacking distinctive characteristics. At the detection scale, there are two distinct approaches: recognition of high volume magma pathways with prolonged flow-through operating at length scales of km based on morphological, petrological, geophysical and structural observations; and identification of the petrographic and geochemical signals of accumulation or extraction of sulphide liquid.  相似文献

Combined treatment with electroremediation and sulphate reducing bacteria (SRB) was tested in laboratory and pilot scale. The contaminated soil came from a chlor-alkali factory and contained about 100 mg/kg Hg. Iodide/iodine complexing agent was used to mobilize mercury. Mercury iodide complexes were moved to the anode solution using an electric field. The anode solution was then mixed with hydrogen sulphide (H2S) containing water, causing precipitation of mercury sulphide. The H2S was produced at site by a SRB reactor. Precipitation problems arising from the nature of the anode solution were expected, since this solution is highly acidic, very oxidised and may contain iodide/iodine that strongly complexes mercury and can hinder mercury sulphide precipitation. Mercury concentrations in the anode solution were up to 65.7 mg/L (field) and 15.4 mg/L (lab. scale). Reduction of mercury in the water was >93% at all times. Iodide did not hinder the process: Nonetheless, in the lab system, iodide concentration was high in the anode solution but mercury reduction was> 99.9%. The redox potential was sufficiently low for HgS precipitation during the experiments, except for a short period, when the mercury removal decreased to 94%. Sulphate reducing bacteria are shown as a viable tool for the treatment of mercury contaminated, acidic, oxidative, iodide containing water, such as that produced by electrokinetic remediation. A second SRB step or other water treatment is required to reduce the mercury concentration to environmentally acceptable levels. Redox potential is the most sensitive factor in the system.  相似文献

Micro-organisms must be included in any hydrogeochemical modelling efforts in the ongoing Swedish programme to characterize potential sites for the geological disposal of spent nuclear fuel. This paper presents the development and testing of several methods for estimating the total numbers of micro-organism groups and amounts of their biomass in groundwater, their diversity, and the rates of microbial processes. The enumeration and cultivation methods were tested and evaluated on groundwater from boreholes at 450 m depth in the Äspö Hard Rock Laboratory (HRL), Sweden, and from two potential sites for a final repository of spent nuclear fuel, Forsmark and Laxemar. The reproducibility of the methods between parallel samples and over time was investigated and found to be excellent. Nitrate-, iron-, manganese- and sulphate-reducing bacteria and acetogens and methanogens were found in numbers up to approximately 87,000 cells L−1 groundwater from the studied sites. A methodology that analysed microbial process rates was developed and tested under open and closed controlled in situ conditions in a circulation system situated 447 m underground in the MICROBE laboratory at the Äspö HRL. The sulphide and acetate production rates were determined to be 0.08 and 0.14 mg L−1 day−1, respectively. The numbers of sulphide- and acetate-producing micro-organisms increased concomitantly in the analysed circulating groundwater. Flushing the sampled circulation aquifer created an artefact, as it lowered the sulphide concentration. Microbial and inorganic processes involved in sulphur transformations are summarized in a conceptual model, based on the observations and results presented here. The model outlines how dissolved sulphide may react with Fe(III) and Fe(II) to form solid phases of iron sulphide and pyrite. Sulphide will, consequently, continuously be removed from the aqeous phase via these reactions, at a rate approximately equalling the rate of production by microbial sulphate reduction.  相似文献

Stratiform Cu-Pb-Zn (-Au-Ag) mineralization associated with black carbonaceous schists and acid metatuffs is restricted to distinct horizons within the Cretaceous sequence of the Diahot region. The sulphides occur in sharply bounded lenses which show varying degrees of compositional banding conformable with the foliation of the country schists. The deposits are sedimentary-exhalative of the Rio Tinto-type and have been modified by mid-Tertiary high-pressure metamorphism (lawsonite-albite and glaucophanitic greenschist facies). The ores are not strongly deformed by the metamorphism and sedimentary structures, pyrite framboids and atoll structures are preserved in some deposits. With increasing metamorphic grade sphalerite becomes more iron-rich, pyrrhotite becomes more abundant, and the sulphides show a general increase in grain-size which parallels that of the silicates in the enclosing rocks. In the more highly metamorphosed deposits the sulphide associations are retrograde assemblages. There is no evidence of large-scale metamorphic remobilization of sulphides. No differences were observed in either the sulphide assemblages or in the composition of the sulphides to indicate that the metamorphism was of the high pressure rather than the low pressure type.  相似文献

Seven units of carbonaceous shale or sulphide-facies iron-formation have been sampled. They are associated with Proterozoic iron-formations that range in age from ~ 1.9 to ~2.5 Ga: Sokoman and Gunflint (Canada), Riverton (United States), Penge (South Africa) and Brockman (Australia). Sulphur isotope ratios have been determined on the sulphides removed from these shales by both physical and chemical means.The mean δ34S composition of the seven units varies between ?4.9%. and +6.6%. and the sample variance is low within each unit. These distributions are more characteristic of hydrothermal sulphide than sulphide produced by biogenic reduction. This hydrothermal sulphide is believed to have originated from high temperature reduction of seawater sulphate and from magmatic sulphide. A model is suggested whereby this sulphide was exhaled into stratified anoxic/oxic basins. The sulphide and associated base metals were deposited in the reduced sediments beneath the anoxic waters, while some iron and manganese was deposited on oxygenated shelves.The data support, but do not prove, a hydrothermal exhalative origin for lower Proterozoic iron-formation.  相似文献

The Sudbury Igneous Complex (SIC) contains abundant sulphides, especially near the base, and hosts one of the worlds largest nickel and copper deposits. The Bushveld Complex (BC) contains relatively little sulphide, but hosts the worlds largest platinum-group element deposits. The most recent calculations of the sulphur solubility in magmas that produced the BC are based on the sulphur solubility of mid-ocean ridge basalts that have less SiO2 than Bushveld magmas. Such a difference may lead to an overestimation of sulphur solubility by as much as 25%. The revised sulphur solubility curve presented here for Bushveld magmas may also have relevance to the SIC in view of its siliceous nature. Sulphur solubility curves can be used to determine the proportion of sulphide expected in cumulate rocks once sulphur saturation is attained. These models are tested using observed sulphide contents in both intrusions. The observed decreasing sulphur contents (>0.3–0.05% S) from the base of the SIC upward are broadly consistent with these sulphur solubility curves, and are consistent with sulphide saturation through the entire mafic portion. In contrast, the lower half of the BC contains extremely little sulphur (generally <0.02% S), except for two thin layers, which is not consistent with sustained sulphide saturation at any level. Previous interpretations of the sulphur content of Bushveld rocks have suggested that the Lower and Critical Zones were sulphide saturated, but that they had then lost some of the sulphide due to various processes. The present sulphide content of the cumulates of the BC is so low that, if they had once been saturated, over 90% of all the sulphide must have been removed. Mass balance calculations indicate that these large amounts of displaced sulphur remain unaccounted for in such models. Instead, the observed sulphur contents are in reasonable agreement with that expected in a cumulate sequence forming from a sulphur-undersaturated magma. Whereas the Merensky Reef and Bastard pyroxenite contain minor sulphides, the compositions of the immediate hanging wall rocks indicate sulphide undersaturation. Such an abrupt return to sulphide undersaturation is not consistent with models involving sulphide formation from large volumes of magma. One possible explanation for these two observations is that intermittent sulphur degassing occurred through a fractured roof of the BC, so that the magma was never continuously sulphur-saturated with respect to an immiscible sulphide liquid.  相似文献
