H2O activities in supercritical fluids in the system KCl-H2O-(MgO) were measured at pressures of 1, 2, 4, 7, 10 and 15  kbar by numerous reversals of vapor compositions in equilibrium with brucite and periclase. Measurements spanned the range 550–900 °C. A change of state of solute KCl occurs as pressures increase above 2 kbar, by which H2O activity becomes very low and, at pressures of 4 kbar and above, nearly coincident with the square of the mole fraction (x H2O). The effect undoubtedly results primarily from ionic dissociation as H2O density (ρH2O) approaches 1 gm/cm3, and is more pronounced than in the NaCl-H2O system at the same P-T-X conditions. Six values of solute KCl activity were yielded by terminal points of the isobaric brucite-periclase T-x H2O curves where sylvite saturation occurs. The H2O mole fraction of the isobaric invariant assemblage brucite-periclase-sylvite-fluid is near 0.52 at all pressures, and the corresponding temperatures span only 100 °C between 1 and 15 kbar. This remarkable convergence of the isobaric equilibrium curves reflects the great influence of pressure on lowering of both KCl and H2O activities. The H2O and KCl activities can be expressed by the formulas: a H2O = γH2O[x H2O+(1 + (1 + α)x KCl)], and a KCL = γKCl[(1 + α)x KCl/(x H2O +(1 + α)x KCl)](1 + α), where α is a degree of dissociation parameter which increases from zero at the lowest pressures to near one at high pressures and the γ's are activity coefficients based on an empirical regular solution parameter W: ln γi = (1 − xi)2W. Least squares fitting of our H2O and KCl activity data evaluates the parameters: α = exp(4.166 −2.709/ρH2O) − 212.1P/T, and W = (−589.6 − 23.10P) /T, with ρH2O in gm/cm3, P in kbar and T in K. The standard deviation from the measured activities is only ± 0.014. The equations define isobaric liquidus curves, which are in perfect agreement with previous DTA liquidus measurements at 0.5–2 kbar, but which depart progressively from their extrapolation to higher pressures because of the pressure-induced dissociation effect. The great similarity of the NaCl-H2O and KCl-H2O systems suggests that H2O activities in the ternary NaCl-KCl-H2O system can be described with reasonable accuracy by assuming proportionality between the binary systems. This assumption was verified by a few reconnaissance measurements at 10 kbar of the brucite-periclase equilibrium with a Na/(Na + K) ratio of 0.5 and of the saturation temperature for Na/(Na + K) of 0.35 and 0.50. At that pressure the brucite-periclase curves reach a lowest x H2O of 0.45 and a temperature of 587 °C before salt saturation occurs, values considerably lower than in either binary. This double-salt eutectic effect may have a significant application to natural polyionic hypersaline solutions in the deep crust and upper mantle in that higher solute concentrations and very low H2O activities may be realized in complex solutions before salt saturation occurs. Concentrated salt solutions seem, from this standpoint, and also because of high mechanical mobility and alkali-exchanging potential, feasible as metasomatic fluids for a variety of deep-crust and upper mantle processes.

Sulfide Inhibition of Nitrate Removal in Coastal Sediments   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  
Microbial nitrate (NO3−) removal via denitrification (DNF) at high sulfide (H2S) concentrations was compared in sediment from a coastal freshwater pond in a developed area that receives salt-water influx during storm events, and a saline pond proximal to an undeveloped estuary. Sediments were incubated with added SO42− (1,000 μg per gram dry weight basis (gdw)) to determine whether acid volatile sulfides (AVS) were formed. DNF in the sediments was measured with NO3–N (300 μg gdw−1) alone, and with NO3–N and H2S (1,000 μg S2− gdw−1). SO42− addition to the freshwater sediments resulted in AVS formation (970 ± 307 μg S gdw−1) similar to the wetland with no added SO42− (986 ± 156 μg S gdw−1). DNF rates measured with no added H2S were greater in the freshwater than the wetland site (10.6 ± 0.6 vs. 6.4 ± 0.1 μg N2O–N gdw−1 h−1, respectively). High H2S concentrations retained NH4–N in the undeveloped wetland and retained NO3–N in the developed freshwater site, suggesting that potential salt-water influx may reduce the ability of the freshwater sediments to remove NO3–N.  相似文献

Activities of CoO in (Co,Mn)O solid solutions in contact with metallic Co have been determined on ten compositions ranging from 0.12 to 0.84 XCoO in order to calibrate the divariant equilibrium between (Co,Mn)O oxide solutions and Co metal as an oxygen fugacity sensor for application in experimental petrology. Experiments were conducted over the temperature range 900–1300 K at 1 bar, using an electrochemical technique with oxygen-specific calcia-stabilized zirconia (CSZ) electrolytes. Co + CoO or Fe + FeO was used as the reference electrode. Compositions of the (Co,Mn)O solid solutions were measured after each run by electron microprobe, and these were checked for internal consistency by measuring the lattice parameter by X-ray diffraction. Activity–composition relations were fitted to the Redlich–Kister formalism. (Co,Mn)O solid solutions exhibit slight positive deviations from ideality, which are symmetrical (corresponding to a regular solution mixing model) across the entire composition range with A0 G = 3690(±47) Jmol−1. Excess entropies and enthalpies were also derived from the emf data and gave Sex=0.77(±0.08) JK−1 mol−1 and Hex=4558(±90) Jmol−1 respectively. The experimental data from this study have been used to formulate the (Co,Mn)O/Co oxygen fugacity sensor to give an expression: where μO2 CoCoO=−492,186 + 509.322 T − 53.284 T lnT + 0.02518 T2, taken from O'Neill and Pownceby (1993).

A baseline study involving analyses of subsurface water samples from the Cape Coast granitoid complex, Lower Birimian, Togo Formation and the Voltaian Group, was carried out to assess their suitability for drinking, domestic and agricultural purposes. Study results show that pH within the range (3.0 ≤ pH ≤ 6.5) constitutes 74% of the boreholes analysed, and 51% have hardness values ranging from 7.89 to 73.24 mg/l as CaCO3 and are described as soft. Total dissolved solids are less than 1,000 mg/l and generally characterized by low conductivity values, of which 95% are within the range (55 ≤ EC ≤ 1,500 μS/cm). The mean values of the major cations (Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+, K+) and anions (SO42−, Cl−, HCO3−) are all within the World Health Organisation (WHO) standards. Five (5) of the boreholes sampled have nitrate (NO3−) contamination. Even though NO3− contamination and acidic waters exist in some of the boreholes, the majority of the boreholes are excellent for drinking and domestic purposes. Assessment of the groundwaters for agricultural irrigation revealed three main categories. These are low salinity–low sodicity (C1–S1), medium salinity–low sodicity (C2–S1) and high salinity–low sodicity (C3–S1), using the US Salinity Laboratory (USSL) classification scheme. As much as 95% of the samples plotted in the ‘excellent to good’ and ‘good to permissible’ categories on the Wilcox diagram. The groundwater in the study area may therefore be regarded as good for irrigation activities. The major identifiable geochemical processes responsible for the evolution of the various ions are mineral weathering and chemical reactions.  相似文献

A long mining history and unscientific exploitation of Jharia coalfield caused many environmental problems including water resource depletion and contamination. A geochemical study of mine water in the Jharia coalfield has been undertaken to assess its quality and suitability for domestic, industrial and irrigation uses. For this purpose, 92 mine water samples collected from different mining areas of Jharia coalfield were analysed for pH, electrical conductivity (EC), major cations (Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+, K+), anions (F−, Cl−, HCO3 −, SO4 2−, NO3 −), dissolved silica (H4SiO4) and trace metals. The pH of the analysed mine water samples varied from 6.2 to 8.6, indicating mildly acidic to alkaline nature. Concentration of TDS varied from 437 to 1,593 mg L−1 and spatial differences in TDS values reflect the variation in lithology, surface activities and hydrological regime prevailing in the region. SO4 2− and HCO3 − are dominant in the anion and Mg2+ and Ca2+ in the cation chemistry of mine water. High concentrations of SO4 2− in the mine water of the area are attributed to the oxidative weathering of pyrites. Ca–Mg–SO4 and Ca–Mg–HCO3 are the dominant hydrochemical facies. The drinking water quality assessment indicates that number of mine water samples have high TDS, total hardness and SO4 2− concentrations and needs treatment before its utilization. Concentrations of some trace metals (Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb) were also found to be above the desirable levels recommended for drinking water. The mine water is good to permissible quality and suitable for irrigation in most cases. However, higher salinity, residual sodium carbonate and Mg-ratio restrict its suitability for irrigation at some sites.  相似文献

The hydrolysis of the Pd2+ ion in HClO4 solutions was examined at 25–70°C, and the thermodynamic constants of equilibrium K (1)0 and K (2)0were determined for the reactions Pd2+ + H2O = PdOH+ + H+ and Pd2+ + 2H2O = Pd(OH)20 + 2H+, respectively. The values of log K (1)0 = −1.66 ± 0.5 (25°C) and −0.65 ± 0.25 (50°C) and log K (2)0 = −4.34 ± 0.3 (25°C) and −3.80 ± 0.3 (50°C) were derived using the solubility technique at 0.95 confidence level. The values of log K (1)0 = −1.9 ± 0.6 (25°C), −1.0 ± 0.4 (50°C), and −0.5 ± 0.3 (70°C) were obtained by spectrophotometric techniques. The palladium ion is significantly hydrolyzed at elevated temperatures (50–70°C) even in strongly acidic solutions (pH 1–1.5), and its hydrolysis is enhanced with increasing temperature.  相似文献

 Enthalpies of drop solution (ΔH drop-sol) of CaGeO3, Ca(Si0.1Ge0.9)O3, Ca(Si0.2Ge0.8)O3, Ca(Si0.3Ge0.7)O3 perovskite solid solutions and CaSiO3 wollastonite were measured by high-temperature calorimetry using molten 2PbO · B2O3 solvent at 974 K. The obtained values were extrapolated linearly to the CaSiO3 end member to give ΔH drop-sol of CaSiO3 perovskite of 0.2 ± 4.4 kJ mol−1. The difference in ΔH drop-sol between CaSiO3, wollastonite, and perovskite gives a transformation enthalpy (wo → pv) of 104.4 ± 4.4 kJ mol−1. The formation enthalpy of CaSiO3 perovskite was determined as 14.8 ± 4.4 kJ mol−1 from lime + quartz or −22.2 ± 4.5 kJ mol−1 from lime + stishovite. A comparison of lattice energies among A2+B4+O3 perovskites suggests that amorphization during decompression may be due to the destabilizing effect on CaSiO3 perovskite from a large nonelectrostatic energy (repulsion energy) at atmospheric pressure. By using the formation enthalpy for CaSiO3 perovskite, phase boundaries between β-Ca2SiO4 + CaSi2O5 and CaSiO3 perovskite were calculated thermodynamically utilizing two different reference points [where ΔG(P,T )=0] as the measured phase boundary. The calculations suggest that the phase equilibrium boundary occurs between 11.5 and 12.5 GPa around 1500 K. Its slope is still not well constrained.

This study assessed the levels of selected inorganic contaminants in streams and stream sediments in the effluent areas relating to the pyrometallurgical and hydrometallurgical treatment of gold ores in the Obuasi gold mine, Ghana. Water and stream sediment samples were taken from specific locations during the consecutive rainy and dry seasons, and concentrations of phosphate (PO4 3−), nitrate (NO3 −), chloride (Cl−), sulphate (SO4 2−), sodium (Na+), potassium (K+), calcium (Ca2+), magnesium (Mg2+), arsenic (As), copper (Cu), iron (Fe), zinc (Zn) and lead (Pb), were determined. Alkalinity, pH, temperature and specific electrical conductivity were also measured. In the water samples, the average pH range for both the seasons is 6.9–7.4, most anions and metals have relatively higher concentrations in the wet season than in the dry season at both the metallurgical sites. Trace metals concentrations were comparatively low (<0.01–5.00 mg/l), higher in the dry season at the pyrometallurgical sites. Irrespective of seasons, SO4 2− (0.80–949.50 mg/l) and PO4 3− (<0.01–6.30 mg/l) were pronounced at the pyrometallurgical sites, while NO3 − (0.01–98.45 mg/l) and Cl− (1.88-49.05 mg/l) were higher at the hydrometallurgical sites. In water samples, Ca2+ and SO4 2+ were the dominant cation and anion, respectively. In the stream sediments, except pH, NO3 −, Cl−, Na+ and Mg2+, all other parameter values were relatively higher at the hydrometallurgical areas. The average concentrations of Ca2+, Mg2+, As and Fe are remarkably high at both metallurgical sites (3,217–46,026 mg/kg). Overall, the level of parameters in the water samples are pronounced at pyrometallurgical sites, whereas the levels in sediments are higher at the hydrometallurgical sites.  相似文献

 Magnetic measurement of Fe3− x Si x O4 spinel solid solutions indicates that their Curie temperatures decrease gradually, but not linearly, from 851 to 12 K with increasing content of nonmagnetic ions Si4+. Magnetic hysteresis becomes more noticeable in solid solutions having a larger content of Fe2SiO4. Saturation magnetizations of Fe3− x Si x O4 samples increase up to x=0.357 and they are easily saturated in the field of H=0.1 T. However, magnetization of the sample of x=0.794 does not approach saturation even at high field of H=7.0 T and has a large coercive force. The Si4+ disordered distribution is confirmed to be tetr[Fe3+ 1− x + x t Si4+ x (1− t )] octa[Fe2+ 1+ x Fe3+ 1− x − x t Si4+ x t ] O4 by the spin moment, which is consistent with site occupancy obtained from X-ray crystal structure refinement. Their molecular magnetizations would be expressed as M B={4(1+x)+10xt}μB as functions of composition parameter x and Si4+ ordering parameter t of the solid solution. The sample of x=0.794 is antiferromagnetic below the Néel temperature, mainly due to the octahedral cation interaction M O–M O, while both M T–M O and M O–M O interactions induce a ferrimagnetic property. Concerning magnetic spin configuration, in the case of x>0.42, the lowest dɛ level becomes a singlet, resulting in no orbital angular momentum.

To interpret the degassing of F-bearing felsic magmas, the solubilities of H2O, NaCl, and KCl in topaz rhyolite liquids have been investigated experimentally at 2000, 500, and ≈1 bar and 700° to 975 °C. Chloride solubility in these liquids increases with decreasing H2O activity, increasing pressure, increasing F content of the liquid from 0.2 to 1.2 wt% F, and increasing the molar ratio of ((Al + Na + Ca + Mg)/Si). Small quantities of Cl− exert a strong influence on the exsolution of magmatic volatile phases (MVPs) from F-bearing topaz rhyolite melts at shallow crustal pressures. Water- and chloride-bearing volatile phases, such as vapor, brine, or fluid, exsolve from F-enriched silicate liquids containing as little as 1 wt% H2O and 0.2 to 0.6 wt% Cl at 2000 bar compared with 5 to 6 wt% H2O required for volatile phase exsolution in chloride-free liquids. The maximum solubility of Cl− in H2O-poor silicate liquids at 500 and 2000 bar is not related to the maximum solubility of H2O in chloride-poor liquids by simple linear and negative relationships; there are strong positive deviations from ideality in the activities of each volatile in both the silicate liquid and the MVP(s). Plots of H2O versus Cl− in rhyolite liquids, for experiments conducted at 500 bar and 910°–930 °C, show a distinct 90° break-in-slope pattern that is indicative of coexisting vapor and brine under closed-system conditions. The presence of two MVPs buffers the H2O and Cl− concentrations of the silicate liquids. Comparison of these experimentally-determined volatile solubilities with the pre-eruptive H2O and Cl− concentrations of five North American topaz and tin rhyolite melts, determined from melt inclusion compositions, provides evidence for the exsolution of MVPs from felsic magmas. One of these, the Cerro el Lobo magma, appears to have exsolved alkali chloride-bearing vapor plus brine or a single supercritical fluid phase prior to entrapment of the melt inclusions and prior to eruption.

Near-infrared (NIR) absorption bands related to total water (4000 and 7050 cm−1), OH groups (4500 cm−1) and molecular H2O (5200 cm−1) were studied in two polymerised glasses, a synthetic albitic composition and a natural obsidian. The water contents of the glasses were determined using Karl Fischer titration. Molar absorption coefficients were calculated for each of the bands using albitic glasses containing between 0.54 and 9.16 wt.% H2O and rhyolitic glasses containing between 0.97 and 9.20 wt.% H2O. Different combinations of baseline type and intensity measure (peak height/area) for the combination bands at 4500 and 5200 cm−1 were used to investigate the effect of evaluation procedure on calculated hydrous species concentrations. Total water contents calculated using each of the baseline/molar absorption coefficient combinations agree to within 5.8% relative for rhyolitic and 6.5% relative for albitic glasses (maximum absolute differences of 0.08 and 0.15 wt.% H2O, respectively). In glasses with water contents >1 wt.%, calculated hydrous species concentrations vary by up to 17% relative for OH and 11% relative for H2O (maximum absolute differences of 0.33 and 0.43 wt.% H2O, respectively). This variation in calculated species concentrations is typically greater in rhyolitic glasses than albitic. In situ, micro-FTIR analysis at 300 and 100 K was used to investigate the effect of varying temperature on the NIR spectra of the glasses. The linear and integral molar absorption coefficients for each of the bands were recalculated from the 100 K spectra, and were found to vary systematically from the 300 K values. Linear molar absorption coefficients for the 4000 and 7050 cm−1 bands decrease by 16–20% and integral molar absorption coefficients by up to 30%. Depending on glass composition and baseline type, the integral molar absorption coefficients for the absorption bands related to OH groups and molecular H2O change by up to −5.8 and +7.4%, respectively, while linear molar absorption coefficients show less variation, with a maximum change of ∼4%. Using the new molar absorption coefficients for the combination bands to calculate species concentrations at 100 K, the maximum change in species concentration is 0.08 wt.% H2O, compared with 0.39 wt.% which would be calculated if constant values were assumed for the combination band molar absorption coefficients. Almost all the changes in the spectra can therefore be interpreted in terms of changing molar absorption coefficient, rather than interconversion between hydrous species.

The source of fluoride toxicity in Muteh area,Isfahan, Iran   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  
Endemic dental fluorosis has been observed in most inhabitants of three villages of Muteh area, located in northwest of Isfahan province, with mottled enamel related to high levels of fluoride in drinking water (1.8–2.2 ppm). Forty-seven groundwater samples from six villages were collected and fluoride concentrations along with physico-chemical parameters were analyzed. Fluoride concentration in this area varies from 0.2 to 9.2 mg/l with highest fluoride level at Muteh gold mine (Chahkhatun mine). Fluoride concentration positively correlates with pH and HCO3 − indicating that alkaline pH provides a suitable condition for leaching of fluoride from surrounding rocks. The district is mainly covered by three lithological units, namely, metamorphic and granite rocks, alluvial sediments, and carbonate rocks. Factor analysis shows that parameters can be classified into four components: electrical conductivity (EC), total dissolved solids (TDS), Cl−, Na+ and K+, pH and F−, SO4 2−and Mg2+, HCO3 − and Ca2 +. The groundwaters from the three geological units were compared using Mann–Whitney U test. The order of median fluoride concentration is: metamorphic and granite rocks > alluvial sediments > carbonate rocks. Hence, the fluoride content is most probably related to fluoride-bearing minerals such as amphibole and mica group minerals in metamorphic and granitic rocks. The concentration of fluoride in drinking water wells located near the metamorphic complex in Muteh area is above 2 ppm.  相似文献

The fluid-absent reaction 12 zoisite = 3 lawsonite + 7 grossular + 8 kyanite + 1 coesite was experimentally reversed in the model system CaO-Al2O3-SiO2-H2O (CASH) using a multi-anvil apparatus. The upper pressure stability limit for zoisite was found to extend to 5.0 GPa at 700 °C and to 6.6 GPa at 950 °C. Additional experiments both in the H2O-SiO2-saturated and in the H2O-Al2O3-saturated portions of CASH provide further constraints on high pressure phase relationships of lawsonite, zoisite, grossular, kyanite, coesite, and an aqueous fluid. Consistency of the present experiments with the H2O-saturated breakdown of lawsonite is demonstrated by thermodynamic analysis using linear programming techniques. Two sets of data consistent with databases of Berman (1988) and Holland and Powell (1990) were retrieved combining experimental phase relationships, calorimetric constraints, and recently measured elastic properties of solid phases. The best fits result in G f ,1,298 ∘,zoisite=−6,499,400 J and S 1,298 ∘,zoisite=302 J/K, and G f ,1,298 ∘,lawsonite=−4,514,600 J and S 1,298 ∘,lawsonite=220 J/K for the dataset of Holland and Powell, and G f ,1,298 ∘,zoisite=−6,492,120 J and S 1,298 ∘,zoisite=304 J/K, and G f ,1,298 ∘,lawsonite=−4,513,000 J and S 1,298 ∘,lawsonite= 218 J/K for the dataset of Berman. Examples of the usage of zoisite as a geohygrometer and as a geobarometer in rocks metamorphosed at eclogite facies conditions are worked, profiting from the thermodynamic properties retrieved here.

An integrated study has been carried out to elucidate the distribution and occurrence of arsenic in selected groundwater samples in the area of Sherajdikhan, Bangladesh. Arsenic and other parameters (T, pH, EC, Na+, K+, Ca2+, Mg2+, Cl−, NO3 −, SO4 2−, HCO3 −, PO4 3−, Fe, Mn and DOC) have been measured in groundwater samples collected from shallow/deep tube wells at different depths. Hydrogeochemical data suggest that the groundwaters are generally Ca–Mg–HCO3 and Mg–Ca–HCO3 types with bicarbonate (HCO3 −) as the dominant anion, though the other type of water has also been observed. Dissolved arsenic in groundwater ranged from 0.006 to 0.461 mg/l, with 69% groundwater samples exceeded the Bangladesh limit for safe drinking water (0.05 mg/l). Correlation and principal component analysis have been performed to find out possible relationships among the examined parameters in groundwater. Low concentrations of NO3 − and SO4 2−, and high concentrations of DOC, HCO3 − and PO4 3− indicate the reducing condition of subsurface aquifer where sediments are deposited with abundant organic matter. Distinct relationship of As with Fe and Mn, and strong correlation with DOC suggests that the biodegradation of organic matter along with reductive dissolution of Fe–Mn oxyhydroxides has being considered the dominant process to release As in the aquifers studied herein.  相似文献

Fluid chemistry and processes at the Porgera gold deposit, Papua New Guinea   总被引：4，自引：0，他引：4  
The Porgera gold deposit in Papua New Guinea is a world-class example of an alkalic-type epithermal gold system (stage II), which overprints a precursor stage of magmatic-hydrothermal gold mineralization (stage I). Gas and ion chromatographic analyses of fluid inclusions contained in vein minerals from both mineralization stages have been carried out in order to constrain the compositions of the fluids involved in, and the processes attending, ore deposition. These data indicate the presence of three end-member liquids, the most dilute of which was present throughout the mineralization history and is interpreted to represent evolved groundwater of meteoric origin. Its composition is estimated to have been approximately 500 mM Na+, 10 mM K+, 5 mM Li+, 250 mM Cl−, 0.15 mM Br−, and 0.01 mM I−, plus significant concentrations of dissolved gases. More saline liquids were also present during the two main stages of ore formation, and although their compositions differ, both are interpreted to have been derived at least in part from magmatic fluids, and to have been the media by which gold was introduced into the system. Stage I minerals contain fluid inclusions which decrease in salinity towards this dilute end-member composition through the vein paragenesis, reflecting progressive dilution at depth of the magmatic fluid source by groundwaters. Ore deposition is thought to have been caused largely by simple cooling and/or wallrock reactions, although limited in situ fluid mixing may also have occurred. The most saline fluids, present in early quartz and pyrite, contain at least 810 mM Na+, 530 mM Ca2+, 130 mM K+, 12 mM Li+, 87 mM SO4 2−, 960 mM Cl−, 1.1 mM Br−, and 0.05 mM I−, plus significant but variable concentrations of dissolved gases. Fluid inclusions from stage II hydraulic breccia veins reveal the presence of two distinct liquids with contrasting salinities, which were present at different times during vein formation. A higher salinity liquid appears to have predominated during mineralization, whereas lower salinity groundwaters filled the structures during intervening periods. The ore-forming fluid may have been forcibly injected into the veins from depth during fracturing and depressurization events, displacing the resident groundwaters in the process. The original composition of this fluid is estimated to have been at least 1770 mM Na+, 59 mM K+, 180 mM Li+, 210 mM SO4 2−, 680 mM Cl−, 1.4 mM Br−, and 0.09 mM I−, plus 1.5 mol% CO2, 0.19 mol% CH4, and 0.04 mol% N2. Gas chromatographic analyses of fluid inclusions from stage II samples show a decrease in total gas content between early unmineralized veins and post-mineralization vuggy quartz (suitable samples could not be obtained from the ore stage itself). Post-mineralization samples plot along an experimental gas-saturation curve in the CO2-CH4-H2O-NaCl system, obtained at conditions similar to those attending stage II ore deposition at Porgera (200–300 bar, ˜165 °C). These results are interpreted to indicate a period of depressurization-induced phase separation during hydraulic fracturing, which resulted in rich ore deposition. Volatile gases such as CH4 and N2, in addition to CO2 in solution, are shown to have a significant negative effect on total gas solubility. This effect may be of critical importance in lowering the temperature and increasing the depth (pressure) at which phase separation can occur in epithermal systems.

Analyses of fluid-inclusion leachates from ore deposits show that Na/Br ratios are within the range of 75 - 358 and Cl/Br 67 - 394, respectively, and this variation trend coincides with the seawater evaporation trajectory on the basis of the Na/Br and Cl/Br ratios. The average Cl/Br and Na/Br ratios of mineralizing fluids are 185 and 173 respectively, which are very close to the ratios ( 120 and 233 ) of the residual evaporated seawater past the point of halite precipitation. It is suggested that the original mineralizing brine was derived from highly evapo-rated seawater with a high salinity. However, the inclusion fluids have absolute Na values of 69.9—2606.2 mmol kg^-1 and Cl values of 106.7 — 1995.5 mmol kg^-1. Most of the values are much less than those of seawater: Na, 485 mmol kg^-1 and Cl, 566 mmol kg^-1 , respectively; the salinity measured from fluid inclusions of the deposits ranges from 2.47 wt% to 15.78 wt% NaCl equiv. The mineralizing brine has been diluted. The δ ^18O and δD values of ore-forming fluids vary from -8.21‰ to 9.51‰ and from -40.3‰ to -94.3‰, respectively. The δD values of meteoric water in this region varied from - 80‰ to - 100‰ during the Jurassic. This evidenced that the ore-forming fluids are the mixture of seawater and meteoric water. Highly evaporated seawater was responsible for leaching and extracting Pb, Zn and Fe, and mixed with and diluted by descending meteoric water, which resulted in the formation of ores.  相似文献

In this study, 92 groundwater samples were collected from the Attica region (Greece). Moreover, geographical information system database, geochemistry of groundwater samples and statistics were applied. These were used for studying the chemical parameters (NO3 −, Mg2+, Ca2+, Cl−, and Na+) and conductivity spatial distribution and for assessing their environmental impact. The ranges of chemical parameters of the water samples (in mg L−1) are: NO3 − 1–306, Mg2+ 2–293, Ca2+ 3–453, Cl− 5–1,988, and Na+ 4–475. The elevated concentrations of sodium, Mg2+, Cl− are attributed to natural contamination (seawater intrusion). On the other hand, NO3 − elevated concentrations are attributed to anthropogenic contamination (nitrate fertilizers). The results of the GIS analysis showed that elevated values of Na+, Mg2+, Cl− are related to shrubby and sparsely vegetated areas, while elevated values of NO3 − are connected with urban and agricultural areas.  相似文献

Geochemical processes that take place in the aquifer have played a major role in spatial and temporal variations of groundwater quality. This study was carried out with an objective of identifying the hydrogeochemical processes that controls the groundwater quality in a weathered hard rock aquifer in a part of Nalgonda district, Andhra Pradesh, India. Groundwater samples were collected from 45 wells once every 2 months from March 2008 to September 2009. Chemical parameters of groundwater such as groundwater level, EC and pH were measured insitu. The major ion concentrations such as Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+, K+, Cl−, and SO4 2− were analyzed using ion chromatograph. CO3 − and HCO3 − concentration was determined by acid–base titration. The abundance of major cation concentration in groundwater is as Na+ > Ca2+ > Mg2+ > K+ while that of anions is HCO3 − > SO4 2− > Cl− > CO3 −. Ca–HCO3, Na–Cl, Ca–Na–HCO3 and Ca–Mg–Cl are the dominant groundwater types in this area. Relation between temporal variation in groundwater level and saturation index of minerals reveals the evaporation process. The ion-exchange process controls the concentration of ions such as calcium, magnesium and sodium. The ionic ratio of Ca/Mg explains the contribution of calcite and dolomite to groundwater. In general, the geochemical processes and temporal variation of groundwater in this area are influenced by evaporation processes, ion exchange and dissolution of minerals.  相似文献

The nitrate of groundwater in the Gimpo agricultural area, South Korea, was characterized by means of nitrate concentration, nitrogen-isotope analysis, and the risk assessment of nitrogen. The groundwaters belonging to Ca–(Cl + NO3) and Na–(Cl + NO3) types displayed a higher average NO3 − concentration (79.4 mg/L), exceeding the Korean drinking water standard (<44.3 mg/L NO3 −). The relationship between δ18O–NO3 − values and δ15N–NO3 − values revealed that nearly all groundwater samples with δ15N–NO3 − of +7.57 to +13.5‰ were affected by nitrate from manure/sewage as well as microbial nitrification and negligible denitrification. The risk assessment of nitrate for groundwater in the study area was carried out using the risk-based corrective action model since it was recognized that there is a necessity of a quantitative assessment of health hazard, as well as a simple estimation of nitrate concentration. All the groundwaters of higher nitrate concentration than the Korean drinking water standard (<44.3 mg/L NO3 −) belonged to the domain of the hazard index <1, indicating no health hazard by nitrate in groundwater in the study area. Further, the human exposure to the nitrate-contaminated soil was below the critical limit of non-carcinogenic risk.  相似文献

 The lattice constants of paragonite-2M1, NaAl2(AlSi3)O10(OH)2, were determined to 800 °C by the single-crystal diffraction method. Mean thermal expansion coefficients, in the range 25–600 °C, were: αa = 1.51(8) × 10−5, αb = 1.94(6) × 10−5, αc = 2.15(7) ×  10−5 °C−1, and αV = 5.9(2) × 10−5 °C−1. At T higher than 600 °C, cell parameters showed a change in expansion rate due to a dehydroxylation process. The structural refinements of natural paragonite, carried out at 25, 210, 450 and 600 °C, before dehydroxylation, showed that the larger thermal expansion along the c parameter was mainly due to interlayer thickness dilatation. In the 25–600 °C range, Si,Al tetrahedra remained quite unchanged, whereas the other polyhedra expanded linearly with expansion rate proportional to their volume. The polyhedron around the interlayer cation Na became more regular with temperature. Tetrahedral rotation angle α changed from 16.2 to 12.9°. The structure of the new phase, nominally NaAl2 (AlSi3)O11, obtained as a consequence of dehydroxylation, had a cell volume 4.2% larger than that of paragonite. It was refined at room temperature and its expansion coefficients determined in the range 25–800 °C. The most significant structural difference from paragonite was the presence of Al in fivefold coordination, according to a distorted trigonal bipyramid. Results confirm the structural effects of the dehydration mechanism of micas and dioctahedral 2:1 layer silicates. By combining thermal expansion and compressibility data, the following approximate equation of state in the PTV space was obtained for paragonite: V/V 0 = 1 + 5.9(2) × 10−5 T(°C) − 0.00153(4) P(kbar).
