The Bajgan Complex, one of the basement constituents of the arc massif in Iranian Makran forms a rugged, deeply incised terrain. The complex consists of pelitic schists with minor psammitic and basic schists, calc silicate rocks, amphibolites, marbles, metavolcanosediments, mafic and felsic intrusives as well as ultramafic rocks. Metapelitic rocks show an amphibolite facies regional metamorphism and contain garnet, biotite, white mica, quartz, albite ± rutile ± apatite. Thermobarometry of garnet schist yields pressure of more than 9 kbar and temperatures between 560 and 675 °C. The geothermal gradient obtained for the peak of regional metamorphism is 19 °C/km, corresponding to a depth of ca. 31 km. Replacement of garnet by chlorite and epidote suggest greenschist facies metamorphism due to a decrease in temperature and pressure through exhumation and retrograde metamorphism (370–450 °C and 3–6 kbar). The metapelitic rocks followed a ‘clockwise’ P–T path during metamorphism, consistent with thermal decline following tectonic thickening. The formation of medium-pressure metamorphic rocks is related to presence of active subduction of the Neotethys Oceanic lithosphere beneath Eurasia in the Makran. 相似文献

The Urals VMS province comprises a broad spectrum of variably metamorphosed deposits, from unmetamorphosed to those without any primary ore textures, which are the results of high-grade metamorphic processes. Contact metamorphism near large granite and granodiorite plutons caused the most significant changes of ores, with coarse-grained to pegmatoidal ores with magnetite closest to its contact with the intrusion, followed by pyrrhotite-enriched copper ores, and more distal zinc (± Pb ± Ag) mineralisation. Koktau, Tarnyer and Vesenneye deposits are metamorphosed to the hornblende-hornfels and pyroxene-hornfels facies (t = 400–800 °C, P = 1–6 kbar). Metamorphism of Tash-Yar, Dzhusinskoe and Krasnogvardeiskoe deposits corresponds to the greenschist and albite-epidote-hornfels facies (t = 250–450 °C, P = 1–4 kbar).The regional metamorphism of VMS ores varies from prehnite-pumpellyite facies (t = 150–300 °C, P = 0.5–4 kbar) in the South Urals to the epidote-amphibolite and amphibolite facies (t = 400–600 °C (up to 700 °C), P = 1–6 kbar) in the Karabash area in the Middle Urals. In the Magnitogorsk zone, the metamorphism of host rocks and VMS bodies increases to the north, reaching its peak near the Ufa promontory of the East European platform. With increased metamorphism, the morphology of orebodies evolves from gently dipping thick lenses (Alexandrinskoe and Uzelga fields), to subvertical and folded (Uchaly and Novo-Uchaly deposits) and pseudomonoclinal steeply-dipping vein-like bodies (Karabash district).The massive sulphide transformation in PTX-gradient fields led to partial redistribution of ore material. An enrichment in Cu, Zn, Ag and Au, ± Pb occur in the uppermost parts of large steeply-dipping massive sulphide lenses in wide tectonic zones (e.g., Gai deposit) or as gold-sulphide disseminated bodies near large metamorphosed VMS lenses, distal to a granite pluton (Tarnyer deposit). Partial melting probably occurred in some highly metamorphosed deposits (Tarnyer, Koktau and Mauk). Redeposition of base metals sulphides (chalcopyrite, tennantite, sphalerite, ± bornite, galena), as well as the presence of “visible” gold and tellurides, took place during retrograde metamorphism, which produced a transfer of ore matter towards the low stress areas, such as the outer parts of shear zones, the uppermost parts of steeply-dipping ore lenses, pressure shadows, hinge zones of small folds, and small extension fractures (i.e., Alpine-type veins) in deformed ore body or its immediate surroundings. 相似文献

The Neoproterozoic (593–532 Ma) Dahongliutan banded iron formation (BIF), located in the Tianshuihai terrane (Western Kunlun orogenic belt), is hosted in the Tianshuihai Group, a dominantly submarine siliciclastic and carbonate sedimentary succession that generally has been metamorphosed to greenschist facies. Iron oxide (hematite), carbonate (siderite, ankerite, dolomite and calcite) and silicate (muscovite) facies are all present within the iron-rich layers. There are three distinctive sedimentary facies BIFs, the oxide, silicate–carbonate–oxide and carbonate (being subdivided into ankerite and siderite facies BIFs) in the Dahongliutan BIF. They demonstrate lateral and vertical zonation from south to north and from bottom to top: the carbonate facies BIF through a majority of the oxide facies BIF into the silicate–carbonate–oxide facies BIF and a small proportion of the oxide facies BIF.The positive correlations between Al2O3 and TiO2, Sc, V, Cr, Rb, Cs, Th and ∑REE (total rare earth element) for various facies of BIFs indicate these chemical sediments incorporate terrigenous detrital components. Low contents of Al2O3 (<3 wt%), TiO2 (<0.15 wt%), ∑REE (5.06–39.6 ppm) and incompatible HFSEs (high field strength elements, e.g., Zr, Hf, Th and Sc) (<10 ppm), and high Fe/Ti ratios (254–4115) for a majority of the oxide and carbonate facies BIFs suggest a small clastic input (<20% clastic materials) admixtured with their original chemical precipitates. The higher abundances of Al2O3 (>3 wt%), TiO2, Zr, Th, Cs, Sc, Cr and ∑REE (31.2–62.9 ppm), and low Fe/Ti ratios (95.2–236) of the silicate–carbonate–oxide facies BIF are consistent with incorporation of higher amounts of clastic components (20%–40% clastic materials). The HREE (heavy rare earth element) enrichment pattern in PAAS-normalized REE diagrams exhibited by a majority of the oxide and carbonate facies BIFs shows a modern seawater REE signature overprinted by high-T (temperature) hydrothermal fluids marked by strong positive Eu anomalies (Eu/Eu1PAAS = 2.37–5.23). The low Eu/Sm ratios, small positive Eu anomaly (Eu/Eu1PAAS = 1.10–1.58) and slightly MREE (middle rare earth element) enrichment relative to HREE in the silicate–carbonate–oxide facies BIF and some oxide and carbonate facies BIFs indicate higher contributions from low-T hydrothermal sources. The absence of negative Ce anomalies and the high Fe3+/(Fe3+/Fe2+) ratios (0.98–1.00) for the oxide and silicate–carbonate–oxide BIFs do not support ocean anoxia. The δ13CV-PDB (−4.0‰ to −6.6‰) and δ18OV-PDB (−14.0‰ to −11.5‰) values for siderite and ankerite in the carbonate facies BIF are, on average, ∼6‰ and ∼5‰ lower than those (δ13CV-PDB = −0.8‰ to + 3.1‰ and δ18OV-PDB = −8.2‰ to −6.3‰) of Ca–Mg carbonates from the silicate–carbonate–oxide facies BIF. This feature, coupled with the negative correlations between FeO, Eu/Eu1PAAS and δ13CV-PDB, imply that a water column stratified with regard to the isotopic omposition of total dissolved CO2, with the deeper water, from which the carbonate facies BIF formed, depleted in δ13C that may have been derive from hydrothermal activity.Integration of petrographic, geochemical, and isotopic data indicates that the silicate–carbonate–oxide facies BIF and part of the oxide facies BIF precipitated in a near-shore, oxic and shallow water environment, whereas a majority of the oxide and carbonate facies BIFs deposited in anoxic but Fe2+-rich deeper waters, closer to submarine hydrothermal vents. High-T hydrothermal solutions, with infusions of some low-T hydrothermal fluids, brought Fe and Si onto a shallow marine, variably mixed with detrital components from seawaters and fresh waters carrying continental landmass and finally led to the alternating deposition of the Dahongliutan BIF during regression–transgression cycles.The Dahongliutan BIF is more akin to Superior-type rather than Algoma-type and Rapitan-type BIF, and constitutes an additional line of evidence for the widespread return of BIFs in the Cryogenian and Ediacaran reflecting the recurrence of anoxic ferruginous deep sea and anoxia/reoxygenation cycles in the Neoproterozoic. In combination with previous studies on other Fe deposits in the Tianshuihai terrane, we propose that a Fe2+-rich anoxic basin or deep sea probably existed from the Neoproterozoic to the Early Cambrian in this area. 相似文献

Within the Namche Barwa area, SE Tibet, the Indus–Yarlung suture zone separates the Lhasa terrain in the north from the Himalayan unit including the Tethyan (sedimentary and volcanic rocks), Dongjiu (greenschist to lower amphibolite facies), Namche Barwa (granulite facies), Pei (amphibolite facies) and Laiguo (greenschist facies) sequences in the south. Two fault systems were distinguished in the Namche Barwa area. The former includes a top-down-to-the-north normal fault in the north and two top-to-the-south thrust zones in the south named as Upper and Lower Thrusts, respectively. The Namche Barwa and Pei sequences were exhumed southwards from beneath the Dongjiu sequence by these faults. Thus, the fault system is regarded as a southward extrusion structure. Subsequently, the exposed Dongjiu, Namche Barwa, Pei and Laiguo sequences were displaced northwards onto the Lhasa terrain by the top-to-the-north fault system, thus, marking it as northward indentation structure. Monazite TIMS U–Pb dating demonstrates that the normal fault and the Lower Thrust from the southward extrusion system were probably active at ~ 6 Ma and ~ 10 Ma, respectively. Zircon U–Pb SHRIMP and phlogopite K–Ar ages further suggest that the Upper Thrust was active between 6.2 ± 0.2 Ma and 5.5 ± 0.2 Ma. The northward indentation structures within the core portion of the eastern Himalayan syntaxis were perhaps active between 3.0 Ma and 1.5 Ma, as inferred by published zircon U–Pb SHRIMP and hornblende Ar–Ar ages. The monazite from upper portions of the Pei sequence dated by U–Pb TIMS indicates that the precursor sediments of this sequence were derived from Proterozoic source regions. Nd isotopic data further suggest that all the metamorphic rocks within eastern Himalaya (εNd = ? 13 to ? 19) correlate closely with those from the Greater Himalayan Sequences, whereas the western Himalayan syntaxis is mainly comprised of Lesser Himalayan Sequences. The two indented corners of the Himalaya are, thus, different. 相似文献

Cu-rich massive sulfide deposits associated with mafic–ultramafic rocks in the southern portion of the Main Urals Fault (MUF) are characterized by variable enrichments in Ni (up to 0.45 wt.%), Co (up to 10 wt.%) and Au (up to 16 ppm in individual hand-specimens). The Cu (Ni–Co)-rich composition of MUF deposits, as opposed to the Cu (Zn)-rich composition of more eastward massive sulfide deposits of broadly similar age along the western flank of the Magnitogorsk arc, reflects the abundance of seafloor-exposed, Ni–Co-rich ultramafic rocks in the most external portion of the Early-Devonian Magnitogorsk forearc. Morphological, textural, and compositional differences between individual deposits are interpreted to be the result of the sulfide deposition style and, in part, of the original subseafloor lithology. One deposit produced by dominantly on-seafloor hydrothermal processes is characterized by pyrite–marcasite ≫ pyrrhotite, not so low Zn grades (occasionally up to 2 wt.%), abundant clastic facies and periodical superficial oxidation. Deposits produced by dominantly subseafloor hydrothermal processes are characterized by pyrrhotite > pyrite, very low Zn (generally < to ≪ 0.1 wt.%), volumetrically minor clastic facies, and multi-layer deposit morphology. Very low Ni/Co ratios in the on-seafloor deposit may indicate a dominant metal contribution from a mafic rather than ultramafic source. The sulfide mineralization was associated with extensive hydrothermal alteration of the host ultramafic and mafic rocks, leading to formation of abundant talc, talc–carbonate and chlorite rocks. Occurrence of large volumes of such altered lithotypes in ophiolitic belts may be considered as a potential searching criteria for MUF-type (Cu, Co, Ni)-deposits. In spite of the contrasting geodynamic environment, geological, geochemical, textural and mineralogical peculiarities of the MUF deposits in many respects are similar to those of ultramafic-hosted massive sulfide deposits along the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. In geological time, supra subduction-zone settings appear to have been more effective than mid-ocean ridge settings for preservation of ultramafic-hosted massive sulfide deposits. 相似文献

The ages of detrital zircon grains from one paragneiss and inherited zircon cores from two augen gneisses from the amphibolite facies basement of the Peloritani Mountains (southern Italy) measured by SHRIMP U–Pb constrain the previously unknown deposition age of the original sediments and help to elaborate a model for their provenance and subsequent evolution. The deposition age is latest Neoproterozoic to Cambrian (~ 545 Ma), bracketed by the combined ages of the youngest detrital/inherited zircon populations and of zircon from virtually coeval granitoids that intrude the metasediments. This is consistent with the subgreenschist facies Palaeozoic volcano–sedimentary sequences exposed in the southern Peloritani Mountains being the original cover rocks of the northern Peloritani late Neoproterozoic to early Cambrian basement. The age spectra of the detrital/inherited zircon grains show that the Neoproterozoic/Cambrian sediments were derived from the erosion of sources dominated by Neoproterozoic rocks with ages in the range of 0.85–0.54 Ga, with other main components aged 1.1–0.9 and ~ 2.7–2.4 Ga, and a minor one aged ~ 1.6 Ga, as typically found in peri-Gondwanan terranes. The presence of a large amount of Grenvillian-aged zircon contradicts previous models that propose a West African affinity for the Calabria–Peloritani Terrane, and the absence of 2.2–1.9 Ga Trans Amazonian/Tapajós–Parima/Eburnean zircon rules out an Amazonian provenance. The age spectra are more consistent with the basement sediments having an East African origin, similar to that of the early Palaeozoic sandstones in southern Israel and Jordan, part of a “provenance regionality” shared with other terranes currently located in the eastern Mediterranean area. 相似文献

A mineralogical investigation of metamorphosed manganese rocks was carried out at ore deposits related to the Devonian volcanic
complexes of the Magnitogorsk paleovolcanic belt of the South Urals. The mineralogical appearance of these rocks is determined
by three consecutively formed groups of mineral assemblages: (1) assemblages occupying the main volume of orebodies and formed
during low-grade regional metamorphism (T = 200−250°C, P = 2–3 kbar); (2) assemblages of segregated and metasomatic veinlets that fill the systems of late tectonic fractures; and
(3) assemblages of near-surface supergene minerals. Sixty-one minerals have been identified in orebodies and crosscutting
hydrothermal veinlets. The major minerals are quartz, hematite, hausmannite, braunite, tephroite, andradite, epidote, rhodonite,
caryopilite, calcite, and rhodochrosite. The mineral assemblages of metamorphosed manganese rocks (metamanganolites) are characterized.
Chemical compositions of braunite, epidote-group minerals, piemontite, pyroxenes, rhodonite, pyroxmangite, and winchite are
considered. The bibliography on geology and mineralogy of the South Ural manganese deposits is given. 相似文献

The Storø greenstone belt, southern West Greenland, consists of thrust-imbricated slices of Mesoarchean (>3060 Ma) and Neoarchean (ca. 2800 Ma) mafic to ultramafic volcanic rocks, volcaniclastic sediments, and gabbro–anorthosite associations. The belt underwent polyphase metamorphism at upper amphibolite facies conditions between 2650 and 2600 Ma. The contacts between the Mesoarchean and Neoarchean volcanic rocks, and surrounding Eoarchean to Neoarchean tonalite–trondhjemite–granodiorite (TTG) gneisses are tectonic and typically bounded by high-grade mylonites. Regardless of age, the volcanic rocks are dominated by mafic amphibolites with a tholeiitic basalt composition, near-flat to slightly enriched light rare earth element (LREE) patterns (La/Smcn = 0.91–1.48), relatively flat to slightly depleted heavy-REE (HREE) (Gd/Ybcn = 1.0–1.28), and pronounced negative Nb–Ta anomalies (Nb/Nb* = 0.34–0.73) on chondrite- and primitive mantle-normalized diagrams. These geochemical characteristics are consistent with subduction zone geochemical signatures and partial melting of a shallow (<80 km) mantle source free of residual garnet. There is no geochemical evidence for contamination by older continental crust. The overall field and geochemical characteristics suggest that the thrust-imbricated basaltic rocks were erupted in intra-oceanic subduction zone settings. Sedimentary rocks are represented by garnet–biotite and quartzitic gneisses. They are characterized by relatively high contents of transition metal (Ni = 10–154 ppm; Cr = 7–166 ppm) and enriched LREE patterns (La/Smcn = 1.38–3.79). These geochemical characteristics suggest that the sedimentary rocks were derived from erosion of felsic to mafic igneous source rocks. Collectively, the structural and lithogeochemical characteristics of the Storø greenstone belt are consistent with collision (accretion) of unrelated Archean volcanic rocks formed in supra-subduction zone geodynamic settings. Accordingly, the Mesoarchean and Neoarchean rock record of the Storø greenstone belt may well be explained in terms of modern-style plate tectonic processes. 相似文献

Eclogites and associated high-pressure (HP) rocks in collisional and accretionary orogenic belts preserve a record of subduction and exhumation, and provide a key constraint on the tectonic evolution of the continents. Most eclogites that formed at high pressures but low temperatures at > 10–11 kbar and 450–650 °C can be interpreted as a result of subduction of cold oceanic lithosphere. A new class of high-temperature (HT) eclogites that formed above 900 °C and at 14 to 30 kbar occurs in the deep continental crust, but their geodynamic significance and processes of formation are poorly understood. Here we show that Neoarchaean mafic–ultramafic complexes in the central granulite facies region of the Lewisian in NW Scotland contain HP/HT garnet-bearing granulites (retrogressed eclogites), gabbros, lherzolites, and websterites, and that the HP granulites have garnets that contain inclusions of omphacite. From thermodynamic modeling and compositional isopleths we calculate that peak eclogite-facies metamorphism took place at 24–22 kbar and 1060–1040 °C. The geochemical signature of one (G-21) of the samples shows a strong depletion of Eu indicating magma fractionation at a crustal level. The Sm–Nd isochron ages of HP phases record different cooling ages of ca. 2480 and 2330 Ma. We suggest that the layered mafic–ultramafic complexes, which may have formed in an oceanic environment, were subducted to eclogite depths, and exhumed as HP garnet-bearing orogenic peridotites. The layered complexes were engulfed by widespread orthogneisses of tonalite–trondhjemite–granodiorite (TTG) composition with granulite facies assemblages. We propose two possible tectonic models: (1) the fact that the relicts of eclogitic complexes are so widespread in the Scourian can be taken as evidence that a > 90 km × 40 km-size slab of continental crust containing mafic–ultramafic complexes was subducted to at least 70 km depth in the late Archaean. During exhumation the gneiss protoliths were retrogressed to granulite facies assemblages, but the mafic–ultramafic rocks resisted retrogression. (2) The layered complexes of mafic and ultramafic rocks were subducted to eclogite-facies depths and during exhumation under crustal conditions they were intruded by the orthogneiss protoliths (TTG) that were metamorphosed in the granulite facies. Apart from poorly defined UHP metamorphic rocks in Norway, the retrogressed eclogites in the central granulite/retrogressed eclogite facies Lewisian region, NW Scotland have the highest crustal pressures so far reported for Archaean rocks, and demonstrate that lithospheric subduction was transporting crustal rocks to HP depths in the Neoarchaean. 相似文献

The Songshugang granite, hidden in the Sinian metasedimentary stratum, is a highly evolved rare-element granite in northeastern Jiangxi province, South China. The samples were systematically taken from the CK-102 drill hole at the depth of 171–423 m. Four types of rocks were divided from the bottom upwards: topaz albite granite as the main body, greisen nodules, topaz K-feldspar granite and pegmatite layer. Electron-microprobe study reveals that the rare-element minerals of the Songshugang granite are very different from those of other rare-element granites. Mn# [Mn/(Fe + Mn)] and Ta# [Ta/(Nb + Ta)] of columbite-group minerals and Hf# [Hf/(Zr + Hf)] of zircon are nearly constant within each type of rocks. However, back-scattered electron imaging revealed that Nb–Ta oxides and zircon of the Songshugang granite, especially those of topaz albite granite, topaz K-feldspar granite and greisen, are commonly characterized by a specific two-stage texture on the crystal scale. The early-stage Nb–Ta oxide is simply subhedral-shaped columbite-(Fe) (CGM-I) with low Mn# (0.16–0.37) and Ta# (0.05–0.29). Columbite-(Fe) is penetrated by the later-stage tantalite veinlets (CGM-II) or surrounded by complex Nb–Ta–Sn–W mineral assemblages, including tantalite-(Fe), wodginite (sl), cassiterite, and ferberite. Tantalite has wide range of Mn# values (0.15–0.88) from Fe-dominance to Mn-dominance. Wodginite with Ta>Nb has large variable concentrations of W, Sn and Ti. Cassiterite and ferberite are all enriched in Nb and Ta (Nb2O5 + Ta2O5 up to 20.12 wt.% and 31.42 wt.%, respectively), with high Ta# (>0.5). Similar to Nb–Ta oxides and Nb–Ta–Sn–W mineral assemblages, the early-stage zircon is commonly included by the later-stage zircon with sharply boundary. They have contrasting Hf contents, and HfO2 of the later-stage zircon is up to 28.13 wt.%. Petrographic features indicate that the early-stage of columbite and zircon were formed in magmatic environment. However, the later-stage of rare-element minerals were influenced by fluxes-enriched fluids. Tantalite, together with wodginite, cassiterite, and ferberite implies a Ta-dominant media. An interstitial fluid-rich melt enriched in Ta and flux at the magmatic–hydrothermal transitional stage is currently a favored model for explaining the later-stage of rare-element mineralization. 相似文献

Copper–gold–bismuth–tellurium mineralization in the Stanos area, Chalkidiki Peninsula, Greece, occurs in the Proterozoic- to Silurian-aged Serbomacedonian Massif, which tectonically borders the Mesozoic Circum-Rhodope metamorphic belt to the west and crystalline rocks of the Rhodope Massif to the east. This area contains the Paliomylos, Chalkoma, and Karambogia prospects, which are spatially related to regional NW–SE trending shear zones and hosted by marble, amphibolite gneiss, metagabbro, and various muscovite–biotite–chlorite–actinolite–feldspar–quartz schists of the Silurian Vertiskos Unit. Metallic minerals occur as disseminated to massive aggregates along foliation planes and in boudinaged quartz veins. Iron-bearing sulfides (pyrite, arsenopyrite, and pyrrhotite) formed prior to a copper-bearing stage that contains chalcopyrite along with galena, sphalerite, molybdenite, and various minerals in the system Bi–Cu–Pb–Au–Ag–Te. Fluid inclusion homogenization temperatures of primary aqueous liquid–vapor inclusions in stage I quartz veins range from 170.1 °C to 349.6 °C (peak at ~ 230 °C), with salinities of 4.5 to 13.1 wt.% NaCl equiv. Calculated isochores intersect P–T conditions associated with the upper greenschist facies caused by local overpressures during late-stage tectonic movement along the shear zone in the Eocene, which produced stretching and unroofing of rocks in the region. Values of δ34S for sulfides in the Stanos shear zone range from 2.42 to 10.19‰ and suggest a magmatic sulfur source with a partially reduced seawater contribution. For fluids in equilibrium with quartz, δ18O at 480 °C varies from 5.76 to 9.21‰ but does not allow for a distinction between a metamorphic and a magmatic fluid.A 187Re–187Os isochron of 19.2 ± 2.1 Ma for pyrite in the Paliomylos prospect overlaps ages obtained previously from intrusive rocks spatially-related to the Skouries porphyry Cu–Au, the Asimotrypes Au, and the intrusion-related Palea Kavala Bi–Te–Pb–Sb ± Au deposits in northern Greece, as well as alteration minerals in the carbonate-replacement Madem Lakkos Pb–Zn deposit. Ore-forming components of deposits in the Stanos area were likely derived from magmatic rocks at shallow depth that intruded an extensional shear environment at ~ 19 Ma. 相似文献

The original spectral features of felsic rocks are often intermingled with other surface objects, which results in difficulty of detecting felsic rocks using remote sensing techniques. Few felsic rock indices were proposed and visual interpretation with RGB false color composition is widely used to detect felsic rocks. This paper aims to construct a two-dimensional spectral feature space model to extract felsic rocks using ASTER thermal infrared radiance data. The study area is located in northern Qinghai Province, western China with average altitude of approximately 4200 m. A large number of training pixels of mafic–ultramafic rock, quartz-rich rock, felsic rock, carbonate rock and vegetation were selected from the ASTER images as samples of these surface objects. Then we used a quartz-rich rock index (QI, QI = band14 − 0.844 × band12 − 1.897) and a mafic–ultramafic rock index (MI, MI = 0.915 × band10 − band13 + 1.437) to generate a two-dimensional scatter plot. The plot was named after quartzose–mafic spectral feature space (QMFS). The samples show an approximate triangular shape in the QMFS. Mafic–ultramafic rock, quartz-rich rock and carbonate rock are located in separate locations in the three vertex regions, respectively, while felsic rock is located in the central region of the triangle. Next, we calculated a linear belt of silicate rocks in which silicate rocks vary regularly by using a linear regression analysis in the QMFS. Statistical characteristics of the felsic rock samples are analyzed. Afterwards, a polygon which delineates the distribution of felsic rock samples was constructed from the linear belt of silicate rocks. Then we generated a system of inequalities based on the equations of the edges of the polygon. The application of the inequalities to the ASER images shows a good performance of the QMFS for extracting felsic rocks. 相似文献

This paper investigates the age, P–T conditions and kinematics of Karakorum Fault (KF) zone rocks in the NW part of the Himalaya–Karakorum belt. Granulite to greenschist facies assemblages were developed within the KF zone during strike-slip shearing. The granulites were formed at high temperature (800 °C, 5.5 kbar), were subsequently retromorphosed into the amphibolite facies (700–750 °C, 4–5 kbar) and the greenschist facies (350–400 °C, 3–4 kbar). The Tangtse granite emplaced syn-kinematically at the contact between a LT and the HT granulite facies. Intrusion occurred during the juxtaposition of the two units under amphibolite conditions. Microstructures observed within the Tangtse granite exhibit a syn-magmatic dextral S–C fabric. Compiled U–Pb and Ar–Ar data show that in the central KF segment, granulite facies metamorphism occurred at a minimum age of 32 Ma, subsequent amphibolite facies metamorphism at 20–18 Ma. Further shearing under amphibolite facies (650–500 °C) was recorded at 13.6 ± 0.9 Ma, and greenschist-facies mica growth at 11 Ma. These data give further constrains to the age of initiation and depth of the Karakorum Fault. The granulite-facies conditions suggest that the KF, accommodating the lateral extrusion of Tibet, could be at least a crustal or even a Lithosphere-scale shear zone comparable to other peri-Himalayan faults. 相似文献

Dissolution rates of sediments obtained from the Oued Cherf reservoir were measured in closed-system batch reactors at 25 °C in fluids sampled concurrently from the same locations as the sediments. The BET surface areas of the sediments ranged from 16 to 45 m2/g and consisted primarily of quartz, calcite, and clay minerals. After a brief initial period, release rates of Si, Mg, Ca, Cl, SO4, and NO3 from these sediments are approximately linear with time over the course of the experiments, which lasted from 3 to 5 months. BET surface area normalized Si release rates ranged from 10–17.4 to 10–18.4 mol/cm2/s. These release rates match closely Si release rates from quartz and clay minerals determined from laboratory dissolution rates reported in the literature. This coherence suggests that laboratory measured silicate dissolution rates can be used with confidence to predict the dissolution behavior of sediments in natural surface waters. 相似文献

The Urals is a complex fold belt, which underwent long geological evolution. The formation of most gold deposits in the Urals is related to the collision stage. In this paper, we review some relatively small listvenite-related gold deposits, which are confined to the large Main Uralian fault zone and some smaller faults within the Magnitogorsk zone. The Mechnikovskoe, Altyn-Tash, and Ganeevskoe deposits are studied in detail in this contribution. They comprise the ore clusters along with other numerous small gold deposits, and constituted the sources for the gold placers exploited in historical time. The gold is hosted by metasomatites (listvenites, beresites) and quartz veins with economic gold grades (up to 20 g/t Au). Listvenites are developed after serpentinites and composed of quartz, fuchsite, and carbonates (magnesite, dolomite) ± albite. Volcanic and volcanoclastic rocks are altered to beresites, consisting of sericite, carbonates (dolomite, ankerite), quartz and albite. Pyrite and chalcopyrite are major ore minerals associated with gold; pyrrhotite, Ni sulfides, galena, sphalerite, arsenopyrite and Au-Ag tellurides are subordinate and rare. Gold in these deposits is mostly high-fineness (>900‰). The lower fineness (∼800‰) is typical of gold in assemblage with polymetallic sulfides and tellurides. The ores have been formed from the NaCl–CO2–H2O ± CH4 fluids of low (∼2 wt% NaCl-equiv.) to moderate (8–16 wt% NaCl-equiv.) salinity at temperatures of 210–330 °C. The oxygen isotopic composition of quartz (δ18O) varies from 14.7 to 15.4‰ (Mechnikovskoe deposit), 13.2 to 13.6‰ (Altyn-Tash deposit) and 12.0 to 12.7‰ (Ganeevskoe deposit). The oxygen isotopic composition of albite from altered rocks of the Ganeevskoe deposit is 10.1‰. The calculated δ18OH2O values of the fluid in equilibrium with quartz are in a range of 5.7–6.3, 4.2–4.6 and 6.3–6.7‰ respectively, and most likely indicate a magmatic fluid source. 相似文献

Pegmatitic and other felsic rock pockets and dike-like intrusions are abundant in the South Kawishiwi Intrusion of the Duluth Complex, including the basal, Cu–Ni–PGE mineralized units. These occurrences are found as pockets, pods or as veins and contain abundant accessory apatite and quartz. Quartz hosts primary fluid inclusions as well as silicate melt inclusions. Combined microthermometry and Raman spectroscopy helped to determine the bulk composition of primary fluid inclusions that are CO2-rich (95 mol%) and contain small amounts of H2O (4.5 mol%), CH4 (0.4 mol%) and trace N2, respectively. This combined technique also made it possible to measure total homogenization temperatures of the inclusions (Thtot = ~ 225 ± 10 °C), otherwise not detectable during microthermometry. Silicate melt inclusions have been quenched to produce homogeneous glasses corresponding to the original melt. Composition of the entrapped melt is granitoid, peraluminous and is very poor in mafic components. We interpret the melt as a product of partial melting of the footwall rocks due to the contact effect of the South Kawishiwi Intrusion. The presence of CO2 in the vapor bubbles of the quenched melt inclusions and petrographic evidence suggest that the fluid and melt inclusion assemblages are coeval. The composition of the fluid and melt phase implies that the fluid originates from the mafic magma of the South Kawishiwi Intrusion and the fluid and melt phases coexisted as a heterogeneous melt–fluid system until entrapment of the inclusions.Coexistence of primary fluid and melt inclusions makes it possible to calculate a minimum entrapment pressure (~ 1.7 kbar) and thus estimate formation depth (~ 5.8 km) for the inclusions. Chlorine is suggested to behave compatibly in the silicate melt phase in the fluid–melt system represented by the inclusions, indicated by the high (up to 0.3%) Cl-concentrations of the silicate melt and CO2-rich nature of the fluid.Apatite halogen-contents provide further details on the behavior of Cl. Apatite in pegmatitic pockets often has elevated Cl-concentrations compared to troctolitic rocks, suggesting enrichment of Cl with progressive crystallization. Systematic trends of Cl-loss at some differentiated melt pockets suggest that in some places Cl exsolved into a fluid phase and migrated away from its source. The segregation of Cl from the melt is probably inhibited by the presence of CO2-rich fluids until the last stages of crystallization, increasing the potential for the development of late-stage saline brines.Platinum-group minerals are often present in microcracks in silicate minerals, in late-stage differentiated sulfide veinlets and in association with chlorapatite, indicating the potential role of Cl-bearing fluids in the final distribution of PGEs. 相似文献

The crystalline basement of the Sierra de San Luis, which belongs to the Eastern Sierras Pampeanas in central Argentina, consists of three main units: (1) Conlara, (2) Pringles, and (3) Nogolí metamorphic complexes. In the Pringles Metamorphic Complex, mafic–ultramafic bodies occur as discontinuous lenses along a narrow central belt concordant with the general NNE–SSW structural trend. A metamorphic gradient from granulite to greenschist facies is apparent on both sides of the mafic–ultramafic bodies. This work focuses on the characteristics of the mylonitization overprinted on the mafic–ultramafic intrusives in the Pringles Metamorphic Complex and their gneissic–migmatitic surroundings, both previously metamorphosed within the granulite facies. Petrogenetic grid and geothermobarometry applied to the paragenesis equilibrated during the mylonitic event, together with mineral deformation mechanisms, indicate that mafic and adjacent basement mylonites developed under upper amphibolite transitional to granulite facies metamorphic conditions at intermediate pressures (668–764 °C, 6.3–6.9 kbar, 0.3 < XCO2 < 0.7). However, the following mylonitic assemblages can be distinguished from the external limits of the Pringles Metamorphic Complex to its center: lower amphibolite facies ⇒ middle amphibolite facies ⇒ upper amphibolite transitional to granulite facies. Geothermobarometry applied to mylonitic assemblages indicate a temperature gradient from 555 °C to 764 °C and pressures of 6–7 kbar for the mylonitic event. This event is considered to have developed on a preexisting temperature gradient attributed to the intrusion of mafic–ultramafic bodies. The concentration of sulfides in mylonitic bands and textural relationships provide evidence of remobilization of primary magmatic sulfides of the mafic–ultramafic rocks (+PGM) during the mylonitic event. A lower-temperature final overprint produced brittle fracturing and localized retrogression on mafic–ultramafic minerals and ores by means of a water-rich fluid phase, which gave rise to a serpentine + magnetite ± actinolite association. Concordantly in the adjacent country rocks, fluids channeled along preexisting mylonitic foliation planes produced local obliteration of the mylonitic texture by a randomly oriented replacement of the mylonite mineralogy by a chlorite + sericite/muscovite + magnetite assemblage. Observed mineral reactions combined with structural data and geothermobarometry suggest a succession of tectonometamorphic events for the evolution of the Pringles Metamorphic Complex of Sierra de San Luis, developed in association with a counterclockwise P–T–d path. The most likely geological setting for this type of evolution is a backarc basin, associated with east-directed Famatinian subduction initiated in Mid-Cambrian times and closed during the collision of the allochthonous Precordillera terrane in Mid-Ordovician times. 相似文献

The Shilu Fe–Co–Cu ore district is situated in the western Hainan Province of south China. This district consists of the upper Fe-rich layers and the lower Co–Cu ores, which are mainly hosted within the Neoproterozoic Shilu Group, a dominantly submarine siliciclastic and carbonate sedimentary succession that generally has been metamorphosed to greenschist facies. Three facies of metamorphosed BIFs, the oxide, the silicate–oxide and the sulfide–carbonate–silicate, have been identified within the Shilu Group. The oxide banded iron formation (BIF) facies (quartz itabirites or Fe-rich ores) consists of alternating hematite-rich and quartz-rich microbands. The silicate–oxide BIF facies (amphibolitic itabirites or Fe-poor ores) comprises alternating millimeter to tens of meter scale, magnetite–hematite-rich bands with calc-silicate-rich macro- to microbands. The sulfide–carbonate–silicate BIF facies (Co–Cu ores) contain alternating cobaltiferous pyrite, cobaltiferous pyrrhotite and chalcopyrite macrobands to microbands mainly with dolomite–calcite, but also with minor sericite–quartz bands. Blasto-oolitic, pelletoidal, colloidal, psammitic, and cryptocrystalline to microcrystalline textures, and blasto-bedding structures, which likely represent primary sedimentation, are often observed in the Shilu BIF facies.The Shilu BIFs and interbedded host rocks are generally characterized by relatively low but variable ∑ REE concentrations, LREE depletion and/or MREE enrichment relative to HREE, and no Ce, Gd and Eu anomalies to strongly positive Ce, Gd and Eu anomalies in the upward-convex PAAS-normalized REY patterns, except for both the banded or impure dolostones with nil Ce anomaly to negative Ce anomalies and negative La anomalies, and the minor sulfide–carbonate–silicate BIF facies with moderately negative Eu anomalies. They also contain relatively low but variable HFSE abundances as Zr, Nb, Hf, Th and Ti, and relatively high but variable abundances of Cu, Co, Ni, Pb, As, Mn and Ba. The consistently negative εNd(t) values range from − 4.8 to − 8.5, with a TDM age of ca. 2.0 Ga. In line with the covariations between Al2O3 and TiO2, Fe2O3 + FeO and SiO2, Mn and Fe, Zr and Y/Ho and REE, and Sc and LREE, the geochemical and Sm–Nd isotopic features suggest that the precursors to the Shilu BIFs formed from a source dominated by seafloor-derived, high- to low temperature, acidic and reducing hydrothermal fluids but with variable input of detrital components in a seawater environment. Moreover, the involved detrital materials were sourced dominantly from an unknown, Paleoproterozoic or older crust, with lesser involvement from the Paleo- to Mesoproterozoic Baoban Group underlying the Shilu Group.The Shilu BIFs of various facies are interpreted to have formed in a shallow marine, restricted or sheltered basin near the rifted continental margin most likely associated with the break-up of Rodinia as the result of mantle superplume activity in South China. The seafloor-derived, periodically upwelling metalliferous hydrothermal plume/vent fluids under anoxic but sulfidic to anoxic but Fe2 +-rich conditions were removed from the plume/vent and accumulated in the basin, and then variably mixed with terrigenous detrital components, which finally led to rhythmic deposition of the Shilu BIFs. 相似文献

The Tianqiao Pb–Zn deposit in the western Yangtze Block, southwest China, is part of the Sichuan–Yunnan–Guizhou (SYG) Pb–Zn metallogenic province. Ore bodies are hosted in Devonian and Carboniferous carbonate rocks, structurally controlled by a thrust fault and anticline, and carried about 0.38 million tons Pb and Zn metals grading > 15% Pb + Zn. Both massive and disseminated Pb–Zn ores occur either as veinlets or disseminations in dolomitic rocks. They are composed of ore minerals, pyrite, sphalerite and galena, and gangue minerals, calcite and dolomite. δ34S values of sulfide minerals range from + 8.4 to + 14.4‰ and display a decreasing trend from pyrite, sphalerite to galena (δ34Spyrite > δ34Ssphalerite > δ34Sgalena). We interpret that reduced sulfur derived from sedimentary sulfate (gypsum and barite) of the host Devonian to Carboniferous carbonate rocks by thermal–chemical sulfate reduction (TSR). δ13CPDB and δ18OSMOW values of hydrothermal calcite range from –5.3 to –3.4‰ and + 14.9 to + 19.6‰, respectively, and fall in the field between mantle and marine carbonate rocks. They display a negative correlation, suggesting that CO2 in the hydrothermal fluid was a mixture origin of mantle, marine carbonate rocks and sedimentary organic matter. Sulfide minerals have homogeneous and low radiogenic Pb isotope compositions (206Pb/204Pb = 18.378 to 18.601, 207Pb/204Pb = 15.519 to 15.811 and 208Pb/204Pb = 38.666 to 39.571) that are plotted in the upper crust Pb evolution curve and overlap with that of Devonian to Carboniferous carbonate rocks and Proterozoic basement rocks in the SYG province. Pb isotope compositions suggest derivation of Pb metal from mixed sources. Sulfide minerals have 87Sr/86Sr ratios ranging from 0.7125 to 0.7167, higher than Sinian to Permian sedimentary rocks and Permian Emeishan flood basalts, but lower than basement rocks. Again, Sr isotope compositions are supportive of a mixture origin of Sr. They have an Rb–Sr isotopic age of 191.9 ± 6.9Ma, possibly reflecting the timing of Pb–Zn mineralization. C–O–S–Pb–Sr isotope compositions of the Tianqiao Pb–Zn deposit indicate a mixed origin of ore-forming fluids, which have Pb–Sr isotope homogenized before the mineralization. The Permian flood basalts acted as an impermeable layer for the Pb–Zn mineralization hosted in the Devonian–Carboniferous carbonate rocks. 相似文献

The Ordovician volcanic rocks in the Mayaxueshan area have been pervasively altered or metamorphosed and contain abundant secondary minerals such as albite, chlorite, epidote, prehnite, pumpellyite, actinolite, titanite, quartz, and/or calcite. They were denoted as spilites or spilitic rocks in terms of their petrographic features and mineral assemblages. The metamorphic grades of the volcanic rocks are equivalent to that of the intercalated metaclastic rocks. This indicates that both the spilitic volcanic rocks and metaclastic rocks in the Mayaxueshan area have formed as a result of Caledonian regional metamorphism. We suggest that the previously denoted spilitic rocks or altered volcanic rocks should be re-denoted as metabasalts or metabasaltic rocks. The metamorphic grade of the volcanic rocks increases with their age: prehnite-pumpellyite facies for the upper part of the Middle Ordovician volcanic rocks, prehnite-pumpeilyite to lower greenschist facies for the lower part of the Middle Ordovician vol 相似文献
