Mineral concentration and ilmenite characterization of the Thothapally — Kayamkulam Barrier Island of the southern Kerala has been studied. 96.86% concentrations of heavy minerals are recorded in the surficial and core samples (4 m) in the southern Kayamkulam and northern Thothapally areas. The total heavy mineral content decreases with depth. The primary heavy mineral suite of the surficial and core samples consists of ilmenite, sillimanite, zircon, garnets, rutile, monazite and magnetite. Longshore current and onshore-offshore movements of sediment during the southwest monsoon are primarily responsible in sorting of the heavy minerals. TiO2 content in ilmenite is significantly higher in the Kayamkulam core sediments than the surface samples. XRD analysis supports intensive weathering and alteration leading to the higher TiO2 concentration. Higher percentage of ferric iron than ferrous iron in the core samples reveals that considerable weathering occurred under burial condition. SEM examination of ilmenite grains reveal the presence of solution pit, chemical leaching, corrosion and replacement textures, supporting the intense epigenetic alteration and weathering under subaerial condition and post-depositional changes by water-table condition.  相似文献

Detailed phase relations have been determined within the systems Fe2O3-MgO-TiO2 and FeO-MgO-TiO2. Experiments were performed over the temperature interval 1173–1473 K by equilibrating pelletized, fine-grained oxide mixtures in either inert calcia-stabilized zirconia pots (Fe2O3-MgO-TiO2 system) or evacuated silica tubes (FeO-MgO-TiO2 system). Equilibrium phase assemblages were determined by combined optical microscope, X-ray diffraction and EMP examination. Phase relations in the Fe2O3-MgO-TiO2 ternary are dominated by the instability of the M2O3 solid solution relative to the phase assemblage M3O4 + M3O5. A miscibility gap along the M2O3 binary also gives rise to two, 3-phase fields (α-M2O3 + M3O5 + M3O4 and α′-M2O3 + M3O5 + M3O4) separated by the M3O4 + M3O5 phase field. Phase relations in the FeO-MgO-TiO2 ternary were divided into two sub-systems. For the FeTiO3-MgTiO3-TiO2 sub-ternary, there is complete solid solution along the M2O3 and M3O5 binary joins at high temperature. At low temperatures (T < 1373 K) the M3O5 pseudobrookite solid solution decomposes to M2O3 + TiO2. Increasing the concentration of MgO in M3O5 phase results in a decrease in the temperature at which M3O5 becomes unstable and compositional tie lines linking M2O3 and TiO2 fan out, before the appearance of a three-phase region where M2O3, M3O5, and TiO2 coexist. Within the expanded FeO-MgO-TiO2 system, at temperatures above ∼1273 K there is a continuous solid solution along the M3O4 binary. At low temperatures (T < 1273 K) the Mg2TiO4 end-member breaks down to MgO and MgTiO3. The M3O4 phase shows significant non-stoichiometry, down to at least 1173 K. Fe2+-Mg partitioning data were obtained for coexisting M2O3-M3O5 and M2O3-M3O4 pairs in the FeO-MgO-TiO2 ternary. Assuming a regular solution mixing model for all phases, the M2O3 and M3O4 solid solutions were both found to exhibit moderate positive deviations from ideality (∼2600 J/mol), whereas the data for the M3O5 binary suggest close to ideal behaviour.

Nelsonite and Fe–Ti oxides ore are common in Proterozoic massif-type anorthosites and layered intrusions. Their geneses have long been controversial, with existing hypotheses including liquid immiscibility between Si-rich and Fe–Ti–P-rich melts and gravitational fractionation among apatite, magnetite, ilmenite and silicates. In this paper, we report detailed field geology and mineral geochemical studies of the nelsonite and Fe–Ti oxides ore from the Damiao anorthosite complex, NE China. Geological observations indicate that the nelsonite and Fe–Ti oxides ore occur as irregularly inclined stratiform-like or lensoid or veins, and are in sharp contact with the anorthosite and gabbronorite. The widespread veins and lenses structure of the Damiao nelsonite and Fe–Ti oxides ore in the anorthosite indicates their immiscibility-derived origin. The apatite in the nelsonite and gabbronorite shows evolution trends different from that in the gabbronorite in the diagrams of Sr versus REEs and Eu/Eu*, suggesting that petrogenesis of the nelsonite and gabbronorite is different from the gabbronorite. Compared with the gabbronorite, the nelsonite and Fe–Ti oxides ore have magnetite high in Cr, plagioclase high in Sr and low in An, and apatite high in Sr, low in REEs with negative Eu anomaly. The evidence permits us to propose that the Damiao Fe–Ti oxides ore/nelsonite and gabbronorite were derived from different parental magmas. The gabbronorite was formed by solidification of the interstitial ferrodioritic magma in the anorthosite, which was the residual magma after extensive plagioclase and pyroxene crystallization and was carried upward by the plagioclase crystal mesh. In contrast, the Fe–Ti oxides ore and nelsonites and mangerite were produced by crystallization of the Fe–Ti–P-rich and SiO2-rich magmas, respectively, due to the liquid immiscibility that occurred when the highly evolved ferrodioritic magma mixed with newly replenished magmas. The variation from Fe–Ti oxides ore to nelsonite and gabbro-nelsonite upwards (as apatite content increases with height) in the steeply inclined Fe–Ti oxides orebodies suggest that gravity fractionation may have played important roles during the crystallization of the Fe–Ti–P-rich magma.  相似文献

A solution model is developed for rhombohedral oxide solid solutions having compositions within the ternary system ilmenite [(Fe 2+ s Ti 4+ 1–s ) A (Fe 2+ 1–s Ti 4+ s ) B O3]-geikielite [(Mg 2+ t Ti 4+ 1–t ) A (Mg 2+ 1–t Ti 4+ t ) B O3]-hematite [(Fe3+) A (Fe3+) B O3]. The model incorporates an expression for the configurational entropy of solution, which accounts for varying degrees of structural long-range order (0s, t1) and utilizes simple regular solution theory to characterize the excess Gibbs free energy of mixing within the five-dimensional composition-ordering space. The 13 model parameters are calibrated from available data on: (1) the degree of long-range order and the composition-temperature dependence of the transition along the ilmenite-hematite binary join; (2) the compositions of coexisting olivine and rhombohedral oxide solid solutions close to the Mg–Fe2+ join; (3) the shape of the miscibility gap along the ilmenite-hematite join; (4) the compositions of coexisting spinel and rhombohedral oxide solid solutions along the Fe2+–Fe3+ join. In the course of calibration, estimates are obtained for the reference state enthalpy of formation of ulvöspinel and stoichiometric hematite (–1488.5 and –822.0 kJ/mol at 298 K and 1 bar, respectively). The model involves no excess entropies of mixing nor does it incorporate ternary interaction parameters. The formulation fits the available data and represents an internally consistent energetic model when used in conjuction with the standard state thermodynamic data set of Berman (1988) and the solution theory for orthopyroxenes, olivines and Fe–Mg titanomagnetite-aluminate-chromate spinels developed by Sack and Ghiorso (1989, 1990a, b). Calculated activity-composition relations for the end-members of the series, demonstrate the substantial degree of nonideality associated with interactions between the ordered and disordered structures and the dominant influence of the miscibility gap across much of the ternary system. The predicted shape of the miscibility gap, and the orientation of tie-lines relating the compositions of coexisting phases, display the effects of coupling between the excess enthalpy of solution and the degree of long-range order. One limb of the miscibility gap follows the composititiontemperature surface corresponding to the ternary second-order transition.  相似文献

Mineralogical analysis, electrical conductivity and thermopower are reported for monocrystalline heterosite (Fe3+, Mn3+)PO4 with the orthorhombic olivine-type structure. The 57Fe Mössbauer spectrum could be adequately described using two Fe3+ doublets. By impedance spectroscopy (20 Hz–1 MHz) the electrical DC conductivity σDC and AC conductivity σAC were determined parallel (∥) and perpendicular to the [001] direction (space group Pnma) in the range ~160–440 K. The graph log σDC?1/T shows a slightly bent curve in both directions with activation energies of E A ~0.30 and ~0.15 eV in the high and low temperature ranges, respectively. The reduced E A is associated with electronic conduction; σDC ∥ [001] follows Mott’s T 1/4 variable range hopping law at lower temperatures with hopping between localized levels. The values of σAC are increased relative to σDC at high frequencies and low temperatures, obeying Jonscher’s universal dynamic response law; for σAC ∥ [001], the variation with temperature of the frequency exponent is in fair agreement with the model of small polaron hopping. The absolute thermopower Θ is negative and low between ~295 and ~440 K, Θ does hardly vary with temperatures in both directions; the temperature independency of Θ ∥ [001] is consistent with the small polaron hopping model.  相似文献

The sound velocity (V P) of liquid Fe–10 wt% Ni and Fe–10 wt% Ni–4 wt% C up to 6.6 GPa was studied using the ultrasonic pulse-echo method combined with synchrotron X-ray techniques. The obtained V P of liquid Fe–Ni is insensitive to temperature, whereas that of liquid Fe–Ni–C tends to decrease with increasing temperature. The V P values of both liquid Fe–Ni and Fe–Ni–C increase with pressure. Alloying with 10 wt% of Ni slightly reduces the V P of liquid Fe, whereas alloying with C is likely to increase the V P. However, a difference in V P between liquid Fe–Ni and Fe–Ni–C becomes to be smaller at higher temperature. By fitting the measured V P data with the Murnaghan equation of state, the adiabatic bulk modulus (K S0) and its pressure derivative (K S ) were obtained to be K S0 = 103 GPa and K S  = 5.7 for liquid Fe–Ni and K S0 = 110 GPa and K S  = 7.6 for liquid Fe–Ni–C. The calculated density of liquid Fe–Ni–C using the obtained elastic parameters was consistent with the density values measured directly using the X-ray computed tomography technique. In the relation between the density (ρ) and sound velocity (V P) at 5 GPa (the lunar core condition), it was found that the effect of alloying Fe with Ni was that ρ increased mildly and V P decreased, whereas the effect of C dissolution was to decrease ρ but increase V P. In contrast, alloying with S significantly reduces both ρ and V P. Therefore, the effects of light elements (C and S) and Ni on the ρ and V P of liquid Fe are quite different under the lunar core conditions, providing a clue to constrain the light element in the lunar core by comparing with lunar seismic data.  相似文献

Macrocrysts of corundum, ilmenite, and spinel-group minerals from alluvial deposits of the Eger Rift were studied for composition, texture, and mineral inclusions. All macrocrysts show usually magmatic corrosion textures indicating disequilibrium with the transporting alkali-basalt magma. Corundum grains, exclusively sapphires, were classified by trace-element signatures as magmatic and metamorphic types. Some sapphire grains show erratic compositions that may have resulted from a metasomatic overprint. The inclusion inventory of magmatic corundum suggests crystallization from a differentiated alkaline silicate melt. Corundum itself was never observed as an inclusion mineral. Magnesium- and Fe3+-rich ilmenite, described as typical mantle-derived species, is the dominant heavy mineral in almost all alluvial deposits of the Eger Rift. Most discrete macrocrysts are similar in appearance and composition to kimberlite- and basanite-related ilmenite. Ilmenite included in alluvial corundum and zircon grains differ from the bulk of discrete ilmenite grains by larger concentrations of Nb and Mn. The mantle origin of the Mg–Fe3+-rich ilmenite is confirmed by compositional and thermo-barometric comparison with ilmenite from clinoproxenitic and hornblenditic xenoliths, which probably originated in the Moho region. The Fe–Ti two-oxide geothermometry and oxygen-barometry of coexisting ilmenite–magnetite pairs yield equilibrium temperatures between 900 and 1,080 °C and oxygen fugacities log10fO2 between ?0.1 and 1.1 (relative to the NNO buffer), which indicate that the upper mantle as well as the mantle/crust transition zone below the rift is at least partially oxidized. The ilmenite macrocrysts were transported from the source region to the surface by explosive alkali-basalt magmas, as implied by the presence of basaltic-pipe breccias in close vicinity to some placer deposits.  相似文献

A crystallographic and m?ssbauer spectroscopy study of Fe   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
The crystal chemistry of garnet solid solutions on the Fe 3 2+ Al2Si3O12-Fe 3 2+ Fe 2 3+ Si3O12 (almandine-“skiagite”) and Ca3Fe 2 3+ Si3O12-Fe 3 2+ Fe 2 3+ Si3O12 (andradite-“skiagite”) joins have been investigated by single-crystal X-ray structure refinements and M?ssbauer spectroscopy. Together, these two solid solution series encompass the complete range in Fe3+/ΣFe from 0.0 to 1.0. All garnets are isotropic and were re0fined in the Ia d space group. Small excess volumes of mixing are observed in andradite-“skiagite” solid solutions (W v =1.0±0.2 cm3 mol-1) and along the almandine-“skiagite” join (W v =-0.77±0.17cm3 mol-1). The octahedral (Al, Fe3+)-O bond lengths show a much greater variation across the almandine-skiagite join compared to the andradite-skiagite garnets. The dodecahedral (X)-O bond lengths show the opposite behaviour. In andradite-“skiagite” solid solutions, the octahedral site passes from being flattened to elongated parallel to the 3 axis of symmetry with increasing “skiagite” content. A perfect octahedron occurs in a composition of ≈35 mol% “skiagite”. The occupancy of the neighboring dodecahedral sites has the greatest effect on octahedral distortion and vice versa. The M?ssbauer hyperfine parameters of Fe2+remain constant in both solid solutions. The hyperfine parameters of Fe3+ (at room temperature: centre shift=0.32–0.40 mm/sec, quadrupole splitting (QS)≈0.21–0.55 mm/ sec) indicate that all Fe3+ is in octahedral coordination. The Fe3+ parameters are nearly constant in almandine-“skiagite” solid solutions, but vary significantly across the andradite-“skiagite” join. The structural unit that contributes to the electric field gradient of the octahedral site is different from that of the coordinating oxygen polyhedron, probably involving the neighboring dodeca-hedral sites.  相似文献

Data on the structural and valence distribution of Cr and Fe in chrysoberyl and in alexandrite, its gem variety, are given. It is shown that the Cr3+ line in the natural Ural and Tanzania samples is the strongest in the M1 site and for the synthetic stones, in the M2 site. During the annealing of the alexandrite crystals, Cr3+ passes from the smaller M1 site into the larger M2 site. The M?ssbauer spectroscopy quantitatively determined the distribution of different valence Fe ions. The various proportions of both Fe2+ and Fe3+ ions isomorphically entering the octahedral sites in the BeAl2O4 crystal structure were established.  相似文献

The Banqi gold deposit is one of the important Carlin-type gold deposits in the southwestern Guizhou Carlin-type gold district, and it is the first deposit of the type found in China. As the major gangue mineral in this deposit, calcite can be divided into four types based on their formation time: pre-mineralization, main metallogenic epoch, late stage of mineralization, and post-mineralization. All types of calcites have distinct features such as field occurrence, physical typomorphic characteristics and trace elements characteristics. The pre-mineralization calcites have the highest REE contents (∑REE=29.70-40.10 μg/g), which are characterized by the most enriched LREE (LREE/ HREE=1.96-3.03), a distinct positive Eu anomalies (δEu=3.83-5.02), and almost no Ce anomalies (δCe=1.02-1.05). The calcites of the main metallogenic epoch have relatively low REE contents (∑REE=10.76-15.53 μg/g), and are characterized by the most enriched HREE (LREE/HREE=0.11-0.23), almost no Eu (δEu=0.73-1.20) and Ce anomalies (δCe=0.88-1.25). The calcites of the late stage of mineralization have the lowest REE contents (∑REE=2.82-4.34 μg/g), and are characterized by enriched HREE (LREE/HREE=0.26-0.86), weakly negative Eu (δEu=0.67-0.83) and Ce anomalies (δCe=0.55-0.81), which are similar to those of the calcites of the main metallogenic epoch. The post-minera¬lization calcites have relatively low REE contents (∑REE=6.92-10.91 μg/g), characterized by enriched LREE (LREE/HREE=1.83-2.34), weakly negative Eu anomalies (δEu=0.72-0.74) and moderately negative Ce anomalies (δCe=0.41-0.50). In addition, the Fe and Mn contents of ore-forming stage calcites are obviously higher than that of the calcites unrelated to mineralization, and negatively correlated with LREE/HREE ratio, which illustrates that the HREE concentrations of calcites are controlled by the incorporation of Fe and Mn. Thus, it will provide an important exploration indicator for the Yunnan-Guizhou-Guangxi Carlin-type gold deposits through the study of typomorphic characteristics of calcite. © 2018, Science Press.

Experimental studies of melting relations in the system ilmenite–K–Na–Mg–Fe–Ca carbonatite–carbon at 8 GPa and 1600°C provide evidence for the effect of liquid immiscibility between ilmenite and carbonatite melts. It is shown that the solubility of ilmenite in carbonatitic melts is negligible and does not depend on its concentration in experimental samples within 25–75 wt %. However, carbonatite–carbon melts are characterized by a high diamond-forming efficiency. This means that the correlation between the concentration of TiO2 and diamond content is problematic for mantle chambers and requires further, more complex, experimental studies.  相似文献

In order to assess the potential risk of metal release from deep-sea sediments in response to pH decrease in seawater, the mobility of elements from ferromanganese (Fe–Mn) nodules and pelagic clays was examined. Two geochemical reference samples (JMn-1 and JMS-2) were reacted with the pH-controlled artificial seawater (ASW) using a CO2-induced pH regulation system. Our experiments demonstrated that deep-sea sediments have weak buffer capacities by acid–base dissociation of surface hydroxyl groups on metal oxides/oxyhydroxides and silicate minerals. Element concentrations in the ASW were mainly controlled by elemental speciation in the solid phase and sorption–desorption reaction between the charged solid surface and ion species in the ASW. These results indicated that the release of heavy metals such as Mn, Cu, Zn and Cd should be taken into consideration when assessing the influence of ocean acidification on deep-sea environment.  相似文献

This paper models the physico-chemical conditions of a Neoarchæan to Palæoproterozoic marine basin in which the sedimentary sequence of BIF, Fe and Mn ores of the Lake Superior-type formed. The model is based on Eh-pH diagram stability fields for Fe, silica and Mn solubilities (taken from the literature) and on field observations of the lithological sequences. BIF formation took place in epicontinental marine basins with free access to the ocean. The main Fe source for BIF formation was ocean enriched with about 6–10 ppm ferrous Fe of hydrothermal geochemical affinity. Land-derived Fe influxes into the BIF-forming basins certainly contributed, but the lack of clastic sedimentation precludes estimation of element budgets. The main silica source for formation of chert layers is sea water. If silica was precipitated by evaporation, the silica concentration of the BIF-forming sea must have been close to saturation (15–20 ppm). Biogenic silica concentration from a possible silica undersaturated sea may not be excluded. These inferred BIF-forming conditions fit the global occurrence of Lake Superior-type BIF in general, whereas special sedimentary environments were probably responsible for the formation of highly enriched laminated Fe ore at the Maremane Dome and in the Sishen-Kathu mining district in Griqualand West, and for the FeMn ores in the Kalahari field. Formation of laminated Fe ore in the Maremane Dome and in the Sishen-Kathu areas were restricted to local deeps within the BIF basins, caused by karst collapse in the underlying Campbellrand dolomites. In such deeps, increased pH values relative to the normal BIF-forming sea caused sufficiently increased silica solubility, resulting in the almost exclusive sedimentation of colloidal Fe precipitates.In the Kalahari field, the BIF sedimentation pile became silica-depleted when approaching the Mn layers. This was genetically controlled by the increased pH of sea water and increased silica solubility. Under such increased pH conditions, Mn oxides become stable for precipitation if minimum Mn activity is achieved in the sedimentary basin. The sedimentation sequence of low silica BIF - kutnahoritic BIF - jacobsitic BIF - braunitic Mn ore can be explained, using combined Eh-pH diagrams, as reflecting a precipitation path of increasing redox potential in a pH environment slightly above 9. These conditions were achieved by closing the access of the basin to the open ocean, resulting in the reduction of water level by evaporation and thereby increasing salinity and pH. Precipitation of low silica BIF followed and, in the presence of sufficient Mn activity with increasing Eh in the precipitating water stratum, deposition of the Mn mineral associations occurred.  相似文献

An investigation of the chemistry of surface precipitates on stream pebbles and Potamopyrgus (Hydrobia) jenkinsi (Smith) shells has been undertaken on samples collected from a contaminated river in SW England, UK. Samples were analysed by LA-ICP-AES to evaluate the technique as a suitable method to use on small environmental samples, and to determine if the Pb/Fe and Zn/Mn ratios of the coatings on the two substrates were comparable. The ratios in the coatings are similar in these samples types, but are generally higher on the pebble samples. Results have been compared to a previous investigation of pebble coating chemistry in the river, and are shown to have the same spatial distribution but very different absolute values due to changes in environmental conditions in the river over time.  相似文献

The Fe M 2,3-edge spectra of solid solutions of garnets (almandine-skiagite Fe3(Al1–xFex)2[SiO4]3 and andradite-skiagite (Fe1–xCax)3Fe2[SiO4]3), pyroxenes (acmite-hedenbergite (Ca1–xNax)(Fe2+ 1−xFe3+ x)Si2O6), and spinels (magnetite-hercynite Fe(Al1–xFex)2O4) have been measured using the technique of parallel electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) conducted in a transmission electron microscope (TEM). The Fe M 2,3 electron energy-loss near-edge structures (ELNES) of the minerals exhibit a characteristic peak located at 4.2 eV and 2.2 eV for trivalent and divalent iron, respectively, prior to the main maximum at about 57 eV. The intensity and energy of the pre-edge feature varies depending on Fe3+/ΣFe. We demonstrate a new quantitative method to extract the ferrous/ferric ratio in minerals. A systematic relationship between Fe3+/ΣFe and the integral intensity ratio of the main maximum and the pre-edge peak of the Fe M 2,3 edge is observed. Since the partial cross sections of the Fe M 2,3 edges are some orders of magnitude higher than those of the Fe L 2,3 edges, the Fe M 2,3 edges are interesting for valence-specific imaging of Fe. The possibility of iron valence-specific imaging is illustrated by Fe M 2,3-ELNES investigations with high lateral resolution from a sample of ilmenite containing hematite exsolution lamellae that shows different edge shapes consistent with variations in the Fe3+/ΣFe ratio over distances on the order of 100 nm.
