中国元古代碳酸盐岩微亮晶构造及形成的沉积环境约束   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
微亮晶构造(Microspar,Molar-Tooth Structure,简称MT)发育于全球各稳定克拉通的中、新元古代盖层碳酸盐岩中。微亮晶构造碳酸盐岩也发育于中国大部分地区的中、新元古代地层中。全球范围的中、新元古代微亮晶构造都表现显著一致的岩石学和沉积学特征。微亮晶构造呈肠状褶皱状等复杂形态。微亮晶由5~15μm的均匀、等粒状,规则或不规则多边形方解石或白云石组成。宿主沉积岩相岩石主要含有少量陆源碎屑物质的碎屑灰岩。微亮晶构造在阴极发光(CL)和背散射(BS)显微镜下显示,每个微晶方解石个体内部发育似棱形的晶核,其外为叠置的微晶方解石晶簇,说明微亮晶构造是围绕微晶核"增生"加大的集合体。微亮晶和宿主围岩电子探针测试表明,微亮晶Ca含量38%~40%,Mg、Al、Si、P、K、Fe含量小于0.2%,基质中粘土矿物含量和Si和Al的含量较高。微亮晶宿主岩相主要砂屑、粉屑和泥屑灰岩(白云岩)与含铁含泥灰质泥页岩,垂向岩相序列表现为向上变浅、变薄,其中频繁发育冲刷、充填和硬底(hardground)与压溶构造,以及平行层理,各种规模斜层理、波状层理-水平层理、粒序层理、同沉积揉皱构造和变浅与暴露构造等,反应了微亮晶构造碳酸盐岩的形成严格受沉积环境和微沉积岩相的约束,无一例外地发育于浅潮下带-潮上带(环潮坪)环境。微亮晶构造碳酸盐岩不仅是环潮坪沉积环境的指相标志,也是全球元古代时期特殊与重要沉积岩石类型,其形成受控于全球古地理和古海洋地球化学条件与背景,是中、新元古代时期全球变化的沉积记录,有益于全球对比和元古代古地理、大地构造重建。  相似文献

作为国际前寒武系碳酸盐岩研究的热点,微亮晶(臼齿)碳酸盐岩(简称MT)在前寒武纪古地理重塑、地层对比和古气候研究等方面具有重要研究意义,但对其成因机制的认识长期存在争论。华北克拉通南缘嵩山地区新元古界何家寨组发育大量MT沉积,被前人解释为地震液化的产物。文中对何家寨组MT发育层位进行了详细的形态描述、系统的微相分析和比较沉积学的研究,确定何家寨组MT沉积于碳酸盐缓坡沉积环境,发现MT具有早期成岩作用特征,其形态类型和宿主岩性、沉积环境之间存在密切关系。从多个方面对比探讨了MT微亮晶和地震“液化脉”之间的不同,明确指出,何家寨组MT的形成受到古海洋条件和沉积岩相的严格约束,具有鲜明的古环境意义,和地震没有必然的成因联系。  相似文献

臼齿构造碳酸盐岩是全球各大陆中、新元古代时期普遍发育的、具有特殊成因意义的碳酸盐岩类型,到目前为止,已在全球20多个地区近50多个中、新元古代地层剖面中被发现。百余年来,有关MT的研究越来越深入,进展显著。从前期和前人较少关注的有关MT与宿主岩石的关系,尤其是从MT与宿主岩石地球化学特征的关系及其所揭示的地质意义出发,通过薄片、电子探针、背散射、阴极发光等测试手段及C、O、Sr同位素的系统测试,对辽东地区新元古代南关岭组、营城子组及兴民村组MT及其宿主岩石的成分、结构、微观组构等特征进行了深入研究。研究证明,MT是原生或早期成岩的产物,由原生海水埋藏成岩和海水直接成岩形成;MT与宿主岩石具有相似的地球化学特征,具有同生或准同生的特点,形成于温暖的正常海水环境,并于Sturtian冰期前终止发育。锶、碳同位素同全球中、新元古代碳锶同位素理论曲线类比表明,大连新元古代南关岭组和营城子组的形成时限为760~950 Ma,兴民村组形成时限为720~800 Ma,与胶辽徐淮地区新古代地层具有良好可对比性。  相似文献

臼齿构造(Molar tooth structure,MTS)是指主要由微米级微亮晶方解石充填的、具有肠状褶皱等特殊形态和结构的前寒武纪沉积构造。具有臼齿构造的这类前寒武纪碳酸盐岩称为臼齿碳酸盐岩(Molar tooth carbonate,MTC)。MTS具有全球分布、时代限定、形态多样、由微米级微亮晶方解石组成及早期成岩等基本特征,该认识早已得到学界广泛认同。在系统归纳MTC的地理分布、发育时限、宏观形态和微观组构的基础上,再次总结性地剖析了物理作用、生物作用和生物-地球化学作用3类主要成因假说的基本论点及其局限性。长期以来,作为一种大量出现于中—新元古代、具全球性分布的特殊碳酸盐岩类或沉积构造,研究关注的焦点和热点是MTS形成与消失的机制。尽管MTS成因还有争议,但其所具有的早期成岩特征,使越来越多的研究者将其作为前寒武纪海洋地球化学环境重建的重要研究对象。MTC的兴衰与前寒武纪海洋化学性质演化和前寒武纪一系列全球性事件密不可分。在此基础上提出MTC进一步研究的方向:一是探索MTC事件与相关全球性事件(如叠层石、冰川事件等)相互响应、促进或消长的关系,MTS的兴衰如何协同Columbia和Rodinia超大陆的聚散过程; 二是从MTS微亮晶方解石微观组构出发,采用行之有效的地球化学方法,将MTC的形成、演化、更替与前寒武纪海洋性质以及大气圈、生物圈的演化相结合,进一步完善MTC成因理论,为前寒武纪诸多重大科学问题的研究提供参考。  相似文献

滇中地区大龙口组微亮晶(臼齿)碳酸盐岩研究   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
运用多种技术方法,如电子探针、扫描电镜、电子显微镜等,对滇中地区大龙口组中的微亮晶碳酸盐岩进行了宏观、微观、成岩作用和成因分析。研究表明,大龙口组中的微亮晶以3种形式存在于底基质中:呈散乱的微亮晶颗粒分散于底基质中,呈等粒微亮晶集合体分布于臼齿构造条带内,或呈鲕粒、内碎屑或藻团块的胶结物形式存在。臼齿构造内部的微亮晶并不是完全致密状排列的,晶间有石膏充填,电子探针分析结果表明其含有Ca、Si、Al、Ti,为晚期成岩阶段晶间水中析出的产物。藻叠层石与臼齿构造出现共生的现象表明,臼齿构造可能与藻类存在某种成因联系,微亮晶集合体作为藻屑或鲕粒的胶结物出现,显示高能动荡水体中生物化学作用和水动力化学作用的结果。文中同时解释了中间宽、两端尖细的臼齿构造的成因,分叉的次级臼齿构造是应力降低的结果,受岩石的非均质性和各向异性的影响。对臼齿构造的成因分析表明,母岩中的有机质被埋藏后经细菌分解产生生物气造成局部高压环境,当超过临界压力时岩石就破裂产生裂隙,而后裂隙中充填的溶液快速结晶成岩,使压力转移而在另一部位聚集高压,然后重复上一过程,从而使岩石中出现密集的臼齿构造,直到与围岩压力平衡为止。  相似文献

臼齿(Molar Tooth)碳酸盐岩问题已经研究了100多年,许多学者都对它的成因提出了不同的假设,但始终未能取得共识。文中作者列举了现有各种臼齿碳酸盐岩的成因假说,指出了这些成因假说中存在的种种问题和矛盾,并提出了臼齿碳酸盐岩生物成因的可能性。从元古代生物演化的规律说明臼齿碳酸盐岩形成、繁盛及衰退的时期与地球上真核生物的出现和繁盛及后生动物出现的界线相一致;从臼齿碳酸盐岩形成的构造背景、气候条件和沉积环境、结构构造特征、化学组成(特别是黄铁矿的形态和SnO2的富集)、碳、氧同位素的分布规律以及生物标志物的多样性等方面提出了臼齿(微亮晶)碳酸盐岩生物成因可能性的证据;还特别指出元古代叠层石的生长和繁盛与臼齿碳酸盐的岩发育呈负相关关系。 同时也阐述了生物成因解释遇到的困难,并指出今后应大力开展臼齿碳酸盐岩形成的沉积环境与岩相,特别是早期成岩作用和相关地球化学特征研究。从元古代古海洋化学性质的变化着手研究将成为揭示臼齿碳酸盐岩成因的根本手段。  相似文献

Along with the progress in research on the Precambrian, Molar-tooth carbonates (simplified as MT, or microsparite carbonates or MT structure) which were formed in the Middle-Late Proterozoic have become a hot subject recently. The Proterozoic Molar-tooth (MT) carbonate rocks refer to those Meso- to Neoproterozoic (1600-650 Ma) carbonates with MT structure, i.e., a series of peculiar, ptygmatically folded and spar-filled cracks in fine-grained carbonates of Precambrian age, located in the environment of mid- to inner ramp and shallow platform. MTS, like a bridge connecting the inorganic world with the organic one, are closely related to the evolution of paleo-oceans, atmosphere and biosphere. Their development and/or recession are/is related to the origin of life and the abruption of sedimentary geochemistry events of marine carbonates. By using modern instruments and testing methods adequately, the contents of oxides in sandstones were measured and the REE distribution pattern curves were established; an accurate value of isotopic ratio of 87Sr/86Sr was obtained, that is, the age of MT formation is about 750-900 Ma; C and O isotopes of some fresh micrite limestone samples were analyzed; the energy spectrum analysis revealed that the MT consists mainly of microspar calcite, while as for its chemical composition, the matrix shows outstanding peaks of Ca, Mg, Al, Si, and K. The geochemical indicators proved that Neoproterozoic MT carbonates in the Jilin-Liaoning region were developed at the margin of a stable continent, in the torrid zone where the paleo-temperature was about 50℃, the seawater had normal salinity when MT was formed during the Wanlong period in southern Jilin and during the Yingchengzi and Xingmincun periods in eastern Liaoning. The sedimentary environment was located in the inner ramp. In summary, it is of great importance to understand the origin of MT, ascertain the paleo-climate and paleo-environment characteristics, constrain the age and the stratigraphic division and comparison of the Proterozoic so as to study the geochemical characteristics of MT carbonates and their formation environment.  相似文献

The origin of Molar Tooth (MT) carbonates has been argued for more than 100 years, which are a kind of Proterozoic carbonates especially composed of microsparite with ptygmatically folded and sheet-like structures. Biomarkers detected in the microcalcsparite from the Wanlong and Xingmincun formations in the Jilin-Liaoning area showed there are abundant normal alkanes, isoprenoids, hopanes, steranes, alkylmethylcyclohexanes, and alkyleyclohexanes, indicating a diversity of biological source: long-chain isoprenoids, the major components of chlorophyll, such as C19, C20, a kind of major biomarkers synthesized early by isoprenoid monomers; hopanes a type of characteristic biomarkers from prokaryote, such as archaebacteria and cyanobacteria; sterane a biomarker for eukaryote; and two kinds of alkanes with C17, C18 as the main peaks representing aquatic bacteria and with C23, C24 as the main peaks representing fungi, respectively. Biomarker analysis showed that MT is the result of bacterial and algal activities, which is a kind of organisms between aerobic and anaerobic bacteria, reproducing well in normal or slightly saline sea water under weak oxidation-reduction conditions, resulting in rapid deposition of calcite as microsparite clue to some mechanisms.  相似文献

臼齿碳酸盐岩是指具有类似大象臼齿特征并具有肠状褶皱构造的元古宙微亮晶碳酸盐岩,其成因众说纷纭。首次对分布于中国吉辽地区新元古代震旦纪(0.65~0.81 Ga)的臼齿碳酸盐岩可溶有机抽提物进行了研究,从中发现了大量的分子生物化石--生物标志物,诸如正构烷烃、无环类异戊二烯烷烃、烷基环己烷、长侧链三环萜烷、藿烷、伽马蜡烷、甾烷等;同时对各类生物标志物的先体生物进行了详尽的生物门类归属,并对早期的原始生命的演化进行了深入的分析。其分子化石研究表明,MT灰岩中含有大量的原核生物细菌(蓝细菌)、古细菌(硫细菌、甲烷菌)、真核生物藻类(蓝藻、绿藻、褐藻、红藻)、真菌及原生动物。毫无疑问,臼齿构造的形成离不开生物活动的参与;同时也说明元古宙原始生物已演化到一个相当高级的程度,已蕴含埃迪卡拉纪的第一次生物大爆发。  相似文献

Carbonate macrofaunal remains and diagenetic tubes collected from a number of structures in the Central Barents Sea area during the 18th TTR (Training Through Research) cruise were subdivided into three groups according to the results of stable carbon and oxygen isotopes analysis. The first group includes carbonates that were formed from bicarbonate only from surrounding sea waters. The carbonates of the second group were formed during diagenesis with use of mixed sources of bicarbonate. The fourth group includes methane-derived carbonates that were formed as a result of anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM).  相似文献

Various workers have suggested that the Upper Miocene (Messinian) evaporites of the Sicilian Basin formed in a topographic basin of considerable relief, filled with hypersaline water. Our studies indicate that this basin contained shallow water, at least during the deposition of the carbonate rocks intercalated between the gypsum beds. We recognize four basic kinds of limestone: (1) pelletal and pisolitic limestone; (2) skeletal limestone; (3) oöitic limestone, and (4) laminated lime-stone-dolostone. Modern analogs suggest that three of these four kinds of carbonate must have formed close to or above sea level. The evidence supporting this contention includes pellets with algal coatings, pisolites, quiet-water oöids, and algal laminates. Therefore we suggest that the evaporites associated with these carbonates may likewise have formed in relatively shallow water. An alternative conclusion would be that the level of the sea, and the salinity, underwent irregular patterns of profound change.  相似文献

A global-scale glaciation occurred at about 600 Ma ago. As a result, the Earth became the “Snowball Earth“. The glaciation came to the end abruptly when atmospheric carbon dioxide increased to such an extent as to be about 350 times the modem level because of subaerial volcanic degassing. The rapid termination of glaciation would have led to warming of the Snowball Earth and extreme greenhouse conditions would have been created. The transfer of atmospheric carbon dioxide to oceans would give rise to the rapid precipitation of calcium carbonate in warm surface seawaters, thus forming the cap carbonate rocks as observed worldwide today. Regionally persisting, thin layers of carbonate rocks directly and ubiquitously overlie Proterozoic glacial deposits almost on every continent, and are commonly referred to as cap carbonates. Their unusual litho- fabrics, stratigraphically abrupt basal and upper-level contacts and strongly negative carbonate isotopic signatures ( δ ^13Cearb. values range from -7.0‰ —0‰) suggest a chemical oceanographic origin, the details of which remain unknown. It is proposed that these enigmatic deposits are related to the destabilization of gaseous hydrate in terrestrial permafrost following rapid postglacial warming and flooding of widely exposed continental shelves and internal basins. The authors carried out studies on the geochemistry, sedimentology and palacontology of the Sinian cap carbonates in Guizhou and Hunan provinces, including the occurrence of cap carbonates of unusual fabrics, strongly negative carbon isotopic signatures, and a lot of bitumen nodules.From the results it is suggested that the cap carbonates were formed from solid methane seepage, and it is in agreement with Kennedy‘‘ s viewpoint (2001) that the cap carbonates resulted from the rapid precipitation of calcium carbonate in response to solid methane seepage.  相似文献

This paper investigates slope channel initiation by seabed irregularities that were initially formed by slump scars in the lower to middle Jatiluhur Formation, part of the middle- to late Miocene successions in the Bogor Trough, West Java. This Miocene succession is up to 1000 m thick in the study area, and is interpreted as a prograding slope–shelf system that formed during a period of falling- and lowstand stages in relative sea level. The lower part of the formation is a siltstone-dominated siliciclastic succession, containing slump deposits, slump-scar-fill deposits, and minor channel-fill deposits, which formed in slope and shelf-margin environments. In contrast, the middle part, which gradationally overlies the lower part, is characterized by shallow-marine carbonates.The slump-scars-fill deposits have an overall lenticular geometry, and are 140–480 m wide and 0.4–1.6 m thick. Some have distinct erosional bases, which cut into the underlying siltstones, in association with medium- to coarse-grained sandstones with lateral-accretion surfaces and tractional structures common in channel-fill deposits. The incident link of slump-scar-fill deposits and channel-fill deposits in the prograding slope–shelf succession of the lower to middle Jatiluhur Formation suggests that some slump scars formed incipient seabed irregularities that may have played an important role in the development of slope channels. The present study provides one example of the various potential mechanisms that can result in channel formation in a slope setting.  相似文献
