浪都矽卡岩型铜矿床位于义敦岛弧南段的中甸岛弧。该矿床矽卡岩矿物有辉石、石榴石、角闪石、绿帘石和绿泥石等。本文利用电子探针对该矿床中主要矽卡岩矿物的化学成分进行测试,结果表明石榴石成分变化于Ad57-94Gr6-41Al1-3之间,为钙铁榴石-钙铝榴石固溶体系列,以钙铁榴石为主;辉石端元组分为Hd78-92Di3-12Jo5-9,以钙铁辉石为主。在钙质矽卡岩中广泛发育铁闪石、铁阳起石、绿帘石、方解石等矿物共生矿物研究表明浪都矽卡岩形成环境经历了早期相对高温、氧化的碱性环境到晚期相对低温、还原的酸性环境。  相似文献

西藏甲玛铜多金属矿床为冈底斯成矿带的超大型矿床之一,其矽卡岩型主矿体受林布宗组砂板岩、角岩(硅铝质岩石)和多底沟组大理岩(钙质岩石)的岩性界面所控制。基于岩、矿心地质编录,开展矽卡岩岩石、矿物分带及矽卡岩地球化学、矿物化学研究,探讨硅钙岩性界面对矽卡岩及多金属矿体形成的影响。从顶板至底板由石榴子石矽卡岩、硅灰石石榴子石矽卡岩至硅灰石矽卡岩表现出Si O2、Ca O逐渐增加和Al2O3、Fe2O3+Fe O逐渐减少的趋势,石榴子石矽卡岩、硅灰石矽卡岩的稀土元素和微量元素特征对顶板、底板岩石表现出明显的继承性。靠近顶板的矽卡岩中石榴子石属于钙铝-钙铁过渡系列,由石榴石核部向外环带具有Al含量减少、Fe含量增加的特点;靠近底板矽卡岩相对于靠近顶板具有钙铁榴石比例增加、钙铝榴石比例减少特征,由核部向外围未见明显的环带成分演变特征。矽卡岩是流体与硅铝质、钙质岩石水岩反应的产物,沿硅钙界面流体减压沸腾、地下水混合作用和界面内垂向的流体地球化学障是主要的致矿机制。硅、铝质岩石化学性质、物理性质差异是界面控矿的主要因素,硅钙面复合张性构造带、岩浆热事件增加界面渗透率差异有利于矿体规模的增加和品位提高。  相似文献

新疆维宝矽卡岩铜铅锌矿床维西矿段矿物学特征   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2       下载免费PDF全文
维宝矽卡岩铜铅锌矿床位于新疆与青海两省交界处,大地构造位置属祁漫塔格造山带东段,可以分为维东、主矿段和维西三个矿段。主矿段和维东矿段以铅锌矿化为主,铜矿化很少,而维西矿段铜、铅、锌矿化均较发育。本次我们选取维西矿段的矽卡岩和矿石样品,进行了详细的矿物学研究。根据矿物共生组合、矿石组构以及脉体的穿插关系,可以将维西矿段成矿过程分为4个阶段,即早期矽卡岩阶段、晚期矽卡岩阶段、石英-硫化物阶段和石英-碳酸盐阶段,其中石英-硫化物阶段是主要的成矿阶段。矽卡岩矿物主要为石榴子石、辉石、绿帘石和角闪石等,硫化物主要为黄铜矿、方铅矿、闪锌矿、黄铁矿和磁黄铁矿等。电子探针分析表明,石榴子石成分以钙铁榴石分子(And=59.00%~97.70%)和钙铝榴石分子(Gro=1.92%~40.42%)为主,为钙铁—钙铝系列石榴子石;辉石主要由透辉石分子(Di=45%~91%)和钙铁辉石分子(Hd=8%~53%)组成,表现在矿物上以透辉石为主,而钙铁辉石数量很少;角闪石成分变化范围比较大,但总体上为透闪石—阳起石系列。综合矿物组合和化学成分特征表明维宝矿床维西矿段矽卡岩为钙矽卡岩。此外,具有环带结构的石榴子石从核部到边部,化学成分表现出有规律的变化,Al2O3含量先上升后下降,FeOT含量则先下降后上升。这表明随着交代作用的进行,成矿流体的pH值不断发生变化,由最初的弱酸性—碱性条件转变为近中性条件,最终又恢复到弱酸性—碱性条件。维西矿段硫化物的金属原子与硫原子的比值大部分都大于理论值,表明它们形成于硫逸度较高的环境。此外,闪锌矿中Fe、Zn含量变化范围比较大,Zn=54.50%~64.75%,Fe=1.15%~10.16%,这种大范围变化指示成矿过程中温度和硫逸度可能发生波动。  相似文献

The chemistry of garnet can provide clues to the formation of skarn deposits. The chemical analyses of garnets from the Astamal Fe-LREE distal skarn deposit were completed using an electron probe micro-analyzer. The three types of garnet were identified in the Astamal skarn are: (I) euhedral coarse-grained isotropic garnets (10–30 mm across), which are strongly altered to epidote, calcite and quartz in their rim and core, with intense pervasive retrograde alteration and little variation in the overall composition (Adr94.3–84.4 Grs8.5–2.7 Alm1.9–0.2) (garnet I); (II) anhedral to subhedral brecciated isotropic garnets (5–10 mm across) with minor alteration, a narrow compositional range along the growth lines (Adr82–65.4 Grs21.9–11.7 Alm11.1–2.4) and relatively high Cu (up to 1997 ppm) and Ni (up to 1283 ppm) (garnet II); and (III) subhedral coarser grained garnets (> 30 mm across) with moderate alteration, weak diffusion and irregular zoning of discrete grossular-almandine-rich domains (Adr84.2–48.8 Grs32.4–7.6 Alm19.9–3.5) (garnet III). In the third type, the almandine content increases with increasing grossular/andradite ratio and increasing substitutions of Al for Fe3 +.Almost all three garnet types have been replaced by fine-grained, dark-brown allanite that is typically disseminated and has the same relief as andradite. The Cu content increases while Ni content decreases slightly towards the rim of garnet II and garnet III. Copper in garnet II is positively correlated with increasing almandine content and decreasing andradite content, indicating that the almandine structure, containing relatively more Fe2 +, is more suitable than andradite and grossular to host divalent cations such as Cu2 +. Nickel in garnet II is positively correlated with increasing andradite content, total Fe, and decreasing almandine content. This is because Ni2 + substitutes for Fe3 + in the Y (octahedral) position. There are unusual discrete grossular-almandine rich domains within andraditic garnet III, indicating the low diffusivity of Ca compared to Fe at high temperatures.  相似文献

Geological and geochemical characteristics of tin-bearing magnetite-skarns are reviewed in this paper, together with the author’s opinion with respect to the mechanism of transport of tin in this environment. In addition to cassiterite, the most common form of occurrence of tin in nature, three other forms of occurrence are also of interest in tin-bearing magnetite-skarns: (1) tin present in the form of fine exsolution colloidal grains of cassiterite; (2) tin found as independent tin-bearing minerals, such as malayaite, stokesite, nordenskiöldine, Sn-paigeite, Sn-ludwigite and hulsite in a variety of skarns; (3) tin occurring in the lattice of some skarn minerals, such as garnet, pyroxene, spinel, amphibole, epidote, wollastonite and axinite in the manner of ionic replacement. When Mg2+ and Fe2+ bearing minerals, in some cases even Sulfides or other mineralizer-containing minerals, replace tin-bearing Fe3+ and Ti4+ skarn minerals during the late stage of skarn alteration, tin in the pre-existing silicates maybe extracted and remobilized, thus contributing to the formation of associated tin deposits.  相似文献

The skarn type copper deposits are widespread in the Jiurui district in the Middle-Lower Yangtze River metallogenic belt. This paper reports a detailed study on mineral chemistry, and H, O, S and Pb isotopic compositions on skarn silicate and sulfide minerals in the three major skarn dominant deposits (Wushan, Dongleiwan and Dengjiashan). The Wushan skarn deposit is characterized with prograde garnet-dominated and clinopyroxene limited skarns with average andradite content of 83% and hedenbergite content of 10%, whereas the Dongleiwan and Dengjiashan deposits are featured with retrograde skarn alteration with abundant hydrous minerals such as epidote and chlorite. The garnet and clinopyroxene compositions show 59% andradite and 15% hedenbergite for the Dongleiwan skarns, and 43% and 22% for the Dengjiashan skarns respectively. The pistacite components (Ps value) defined as Fe3 +/(Fe3 ++ Al) and Fe3 +/Fe2 + value of epidote are 0.12 and 1.63 for the Wushan skarns, 0.30 and 32.73 for the Dongleiwan skarns, and 0.17 and 42.85 for the Dengjiashan skarns. It is suggested that the prograde skarn mineralization in the three deposits was all formed in a relatively oxidizing environment, with the Wushan showing the highest oxidation potential and the Dengjiashan having the least oxidation potential. However, in the retrograde skarns, the Dongleiwan and Dengjiashan deposits show higher oxidation potential than that of Wushan. The three deposits show similar sulfur isotopic compositions of − 2.9 to + 1.4‰ and similar lead isotopic compositions with 206Pb/204Pb, 207Pb/204Pb and 208Pb/204Pb ratios of 17.900 to 18.205, 15.538 to 15.649 and 38.170 to 39.025, respectively. All the three deposits should have similar magmatic origin for the ore-forming materials based on their S and Pb isotopes. The oxygen isotopic compositions of the prograde and retrograde fluids in the three deposits show some differences, with δ18OFluid values of + 8.13‰ and + 7.81‰ for the Wushan, + 6.47‰ and + 2.33‰ for the Dongleiwan, and + 8.27‰ and + 4.43‰ for the Dengjiashan. But the hydrogen isotopic compositions are similar for the prograde (− 65 to − 31‰) and retrograde (− 64 to − 33‰) fluids. Therefore, the fluid origins and evolution may be different in each deposit. The hydrothermal fluids for the prograde skarns in all three deposits were likely derived from magmatic–hydrothermal sources, but the Dongleiwan and Dengjiashan show a higher proportion of meteoric water input in the retrograde stage. Considering the similar average prograde temperatures (574 to 560 °C) as calculated from coexisting garnet–clinopyroxene pairs, and similar retrograde temperatures (281 to 246 °C) as calculated from chlorite chemistry for the three deposits, we suggest that the trigger for deposition of sulfide ores in the Wushan garnet-dominated skarn deposit was mainly caused by system cooling with temperature drop along with magmatic intrusion and crystallization process. The Dongleiwan and Dengjiashan skarn deposits constitute a well developed retrograde skarn system with abundant epidote, chlorite, quartz and calcite, which probably caused by fluid mixing of high-temperature saline magmatic–hydrothermal fluids with cooler, oxidizing and dilute meteoric water.  相似文献

滇东南老君山矿集区广泛分布的矽卡岩是本区锡-钨-锌-铟多金属矿床的主要赋存围岩。长期以来,该区含矿矽卡岩的成因争议较大,由此也制约了对该区锡钨多金属成矿规律的认识。本文以区内代表性的都龙和南秧田矿区含矿矽卡岩为研究对象,在对其地质特征详细研究的基础上,运用电子探针和ICP-MS分别测定了上述两个矿区含矿矽卡岩的矿物成分、微量和稀土元素组成,探讨了它们和多金属矿床的成岩成矿机制的关系。结果表明,区内同时存在与地层产状一致的"层状"含矿矽卡岩和明显切割层理的穿层含矿矽卡岩。都龙矿区含矿矽卡岩富Fe、贫Al,主要矿物端元成分为钙铁榴石(And_(52-69)Gro_(28-45)Spe_(1-4))、钙铁辉石(Di_(11-41)Hd_(51-73)Jo_(0-28))和铁阳起石等,从干矽卡岩到退化蚀变阶段,形成环境由酸性的弱还原环境向偏碱性的相对氧化环境变化。南秧田矿区含矿矽卡岩富Mg、Al,贫Fe,主要矿物端元成分为钙铝榴石(Gro_(82-89)Alm_(7-13)And_(2-5))、透辉石(Di_(55-81)Hd_(18-42)Jo_(0-5))和透闪石(阳起石)等,形成于相对还原的环境。都龙和南秧田矿区含矿矽卡岩与花岗岩都显示出相似的、LREE相对富集的右倾型稀土配分模式,多具有中等-弱Eu负异常,与典型的热液交代成因矽卡岩特征相似。综合分析认为,该区含矿矽卡岩主要形成于燕山晚期花岗岩浆热液与围岩的交代作用,"层状"矽卡岩可能是热液沿层间构造、岩相突变带等有利位置进行交代的结果。  相似文献

Stratiform skarns associated with ore deposits are widespread in the north of East Junggar, particularly in the Suoerkuduke Cu-Mo deposit. The Suoerkuduke stratiform and stratoid skarns are hosted by Devonian intermediate-mafic volcanic and pyroclastic rocks, mainly andesite, andesitic porphyry and tuffaceous sandstone, without carbonate or calcareous rocks. The skarns consist of dominant andradite-grossular, epidote, diopside-hedenbergite and minor actinolite, quartz, magnetite and metallic sulfides. The garnet and epidote composition, especially Fe3 + and Al contents, is largely a function of the bulk composition and physicochemical environment (particularly fO2) during crystallization. Such mineralogy indicates a relatively oxidizing environment and medium acidity of solution during skarnization.The Suoerkuduke skarns are distinct from typical contact metasomatic skarn in wall rock, as no carbonate or calcareous rocks were found, and differ in the distribution patterns of skarn zonation in that gradually weakened skarn zones are not quite symmetrically distributed on both sides of the alteration center (a garnet skarn). Abundant remnants of andesite, andesitic porphyry and tuffaceous sandstone in the weakened skarn zone indicate that the protolith of the skarn is andesite, andesitic porphyry and tuffaceous sandstone. Magmatic water, meteoric and seawater are involved in skarn alteration. Moyite and granitic porphyry are not coeval with skarn, and their emplacement resulted in the hornfelization of wall rock instead of skarnization, and themselves keep away from skarn alteration. Therefore, there was probably a huge batholith supplying magmatic fluid for skarn formation. Mass balance estimates suggest that hydrothermal fluid must contribute a portion of Ca and Fe to ensure sufficient supply for skarn formation in the absence of local carbonate and calcareous rocks. In conclusion, the stratiform skarns in the Suoerkuduke are products of intermediate-mafic volcanic and pyroclastic rocks metasomatised by hydrothermal fluid that probably leached calcareous wall rock during ascent.  相似文献

Metacarbonate rocks (including marble and skarn deposits) at Bahrah area are confined to a Precambrian island-arc suite made up mostly of massive basalts and volcaniclastics aligned in a NE-trending belt. The marbles are either pure (almost made up of calcite) or contain considerable amounts of tremolite, actinolite, epidote, and diopside. Garnet-bearing rocks at Bahrah area are classified into garnetiferous marble and skarn calc-silicate assemblages that are described here for the first time. The calc-silicates become more abundant when the marble becomes interbedded with foliated metabasalt. Such contact is delineated by an epidote zone of variable thickness. Microscopically, the skarns are enriched in Ca-bearing minerals such as grossular garnet, epidote, titanite, diopside, and augitic salite. There are evidence that calc-silicate skarns were formed due to a thermal effect of a concealed underground shallow granitic intrusion. The basaltic rocks furnished Mg2+, Fe2+, Ti4+, and Al3+ that were first concentrated in the epidote zone. This was followed by pervasive replacement of epidote by large idiomorphic garnet (grossularite) that attains up to ~1.5 cm wide. It is evident that diopside is earlier than garnet with no replacement fabrics between the two minerals. Two types of titanite (sphene) can be distinguished: The first is secondary in the metabasalt host where titanite develops after titanomagnetite during regional metamorphism (i.e., metamorphic). On the other hand, the second type of titanite is found in the garnet-bearing calc-silicate skarn where it is typically euhedral with no link to any opaque phase and it is believed to be formed due to the event of superimposed thermal metamorphism (i.e., metasomatic). There are several evidence of the thermal metamorphic effect such as distinct granoblastic and annealing textures and K-metasomatism and formation of phlogopite at the expense of tremolite in the marble, in addition to poikiloblastic hornblende in the metabasalt host with distinct recrystallization. Also, there are some evidence of shearing such as brecciation along microshear planes, microfolding, introduction of fine euhedral pyrite, and presence of injected silica postdating crystallization of garnet in the calc-silicates.  相似文献

The Tayuan (Cu–Mo)–Pb–Zn deposit is located in the northern part of Daxinganling, NE China. Lenticular ore body occurs in the skarn zone. The skarn minerals mainly include garnet, pyroxene, epidote and wollastonite. Electron microprobe analysis shows that the end member of garnet is mainly andradite (Ad62–97Gr11–45), the pyroxene is mainly diopside, and epidote is mainly clinozoisite. These characteristics indicate that the Tayuan polymetallic skarn deposit is mainly calcareous skarn. Sometimes the content zonation can be observed in garnets. With one garnet crystal, content is shifty from the core to the rim. In general, the iron content in the core is higher than in the edge. The content in the garnet shows that the garnet in the Tayuan deposit formed from weak oxidation in alkaline environment with the oxygen fugacity increasing, suggesting that the hydrothermal fluid evolved from an acidic to a slight alkaline state. In the Tayuan polymetallic deposit, the ratio of Mn/Fe in pyroxene is about 1.3, and of Mg/Fe, it is about 2. The components of garnet in the Tayuan deposit plot in the field of the typical skarn Zn, Cu, Mo deposits in the world.  相似文献

The middle and lower Yangtze River Valley and adjacent regions are the most important metallogenic belt of gold (and copper)-bearing skarn deposits in China. The total gold reserves in this belt have been estimated at more than 600 t. The gold-bearing skarns are mainly distributed in the southeastern Hubei, Tongling and northern Anhui regions. Favorable tectonic settings are depressions and fold zones of the platforms, i.e., mobile belts. These skarns are hosted by platformal limestone, dolomitic limestone and dolomite of the Triassic, Carboniferous-Permian and Middle to Lower Cambrian formations. The related intrusions are Yenshanian (180 to 113 Ma) calc-alkaline quartz monzodiorite, granodiorite, quartz monzonite, monzogabbro, and their hybabyssal facies. The intrusions have high Fe2O3/FeO (>0.5) and intermediate initial 87Sr/86Sr ratios (0.7046 to 0.7087). Their REE distribution patterns are LREE-enriched and exhibit smooth, right-dipping curves. These suggest that the source materials mainly came from upper mantle, with contamination by sialic crustal components. The auriferous skarns are both calcic and magnesian, but calcic skarns are most common. The constituent minerals of the calcic skarns are diopside, garnet, wollastonite, vesuvianite and scapolite, whereas magnesian skarns are dominated by forsterite, spinel, diopside, phlogopite, chondrodite and clinohumite, with abundant superimposed serpentine, clinochlore and brucite. The compositions of coexisting pyroxenes and garnets are diopside and andradite, indicating the high oxygen fugacity and low acidity conditions. Gold is closely associated with Cu (Pb, Zn) sulfides and exists mainly in the form of native gold and electrum. Arsenides, tellurides, bismuthides and selenides are present in many ore deposits. Therefore, Cu, As, Bi, Te, Ag, Pb, Zn, Se and Co are the major metals present in the deposits and are important geochemical ore-searching indicators. In some Au (Fe, Cu) magnesian skarns, magnesiomagnetite, magnesioferrite and ludwigite are locally abundant. The metasomatic zoning in many gold skarn deposits is very distinct consisting of an outward sequence of: Fe (Cu)→Cu (Mo)→Cu (Au)→Au (Cu)→Au (Pb, Zn). The geologic characteristics of Au (Cu) skarn deposits that formed in the mobile platformal setting of China have distinct differences compared to Au skarns formed in orogenic belts at convergent plate margins in British Columbia and the western USA.  相似文献

The Mary Kathleen U‐REE orebody of the Proterozoic Mt Isa Block was the product of chemical and physical interaction between regional metamorphic/hydrothermal fluids and preexisting calcic skarns. The deposit provides excellent examples of mechanical control on ore localisation and of the complexity of ores in rocks with protracted thermal histories. Host skarns were produced by contact metasomatism around the 1740 Ma Burstall Granite, whereas the allanite‐uraninite ore formed under amphibolite‐facies conditions, late during the D2 phase of the ca 1550–1500 Ma Isan orogeny. Observations of ore geometry are consistent with previous geochronologic data demonstrating a large time gap between skarn formation and ore genesis. Numerical modelling of coupled deformation and fluid flow suggests that veins at the core of ore shoots may have formed as tensile or shear fractures during coupling of the competent skarn host with the late‐D2 Mary Kathleen Shear Zone, allowing a change of orientation of ore shoots with distance from the shear zone. Mineral chemistry and petrographic observations suggest the possible role of a redox control on chemical localisation of ore by conversion of Fe2+‐rich clinopyroxene‐rich skarn host to Fe3+‐rich secondary garnet ‘skarn’ and uraninite‐allanite ore. Alternately, fluid pressure drops as a consequence of fracturing of the host skarn may have triggered fluid unmixing, or fluid mixing, leading to ore precipitation. Available data do not allow clear definition of the ultimate source of the U and REE, nor of the specific chemical ore‐forming mechanism. However, regional constraints, previous Sm–Nd modelling, and our numerical models suggest a combination from proximal skarn hosts and from distal sources accessed by flow of metamorphic and/or late tectonic igneous‐derived fluids. The deposit has some similarities with ironstone‐hosted Cu–Au ± U deposits found in the nearby Cloncurry Belt.  相似文献
