A paleomagnetic study of about 95 samples from 16 sites sampled in the Early Cretaceous in Luanping basin in Hebei Province was reported. Stepwise thermal demagnetization was used to isolate magnetic components. Most samples have a characteristic direction with a high temperature component above 500°C. The tectonic-corrected data areD = 347.8°,I = 50.4°, α95 = 7.l°, and the corresponding pole position is at 76.1°N, 346.3°E,with dp =6.4°,dm = 3.8°, paleolatitude λ = 31.1°N. This result indicates a counterclockwise post-Cretaceous rotation of 30.7° ±9.8° with respect to the stable Ordos basin in the west of North China Block, and a non-significant northward motion. This rotation could be related to local fault action or structural detachment, or regional NNW-NWWward motion and collision of Kula-Pacific plate with eastern China since the Early Cretaceous.
Mineral-bituminous matrix(MBM) makes up a major part of source rocks,but its potential in hydrocarbon generation is uncertain,Mineral and organic (Maceral and kerogen) compositions,organic maturity and fluorescence of MBM are studied based on source rock samples from eastern Jiuquan(Jiudong)Basin.The results show that MBM is dominated by inorganic minerals and among the small percentage of organic components those of secondary origins are predominant over the primary species.This strongly indicates that the significance of MBM in hydrocarbon generation is limited. 相似文献
The first attempt is made to evaluate quantitatively the changes of accumulation rates in the South China Sea during the last
glaciation and Holocene, based on the data of 72 sediment cores taken from six areas deeper than 100 m. As shown from the
calculations, the accumulation rate during the last glaciation is much higher than that during the Holocene. The southern
and northern continental slopes are distinguished from other areas by the highest accumulation rates, with different features
of sedimentation for aifferent stages: The Glacial-Holocene contrast in accumulation rate of terrigenous material is more
distinct in the southern slope, while the contrast in biogenic sedimentation rate is more remarkable in the northern slope.
