 Using the high-pressure differential thermal analysis (HP-DTA) system in a cubic multianvil high-pressure apparatus, we measured the melting points of portlandite, Ca(OH)₂, up to 6 GPa and 1000 °C. We detected endothermic behavior at the temperature and pressure conditions of 800 °C and 2.5 GPa, 769 °C and 3.5 GPa, 752 °C and 4.0 GPa, 686 °C and 5.0 GPa, and 596 °C and 6.0 GPa, respectively, due to melting of portlandite. By in situ X-ray studies under pressure, the melting of portlandite was observed at 730 °C and 4.32 GPa and at 640 °C and 5.81 GPa, respectively. Results of both HP-DTA and X-ray studies were consistent within experimental error. The melting is congruent and has a negative Clapeyron slope, indicating that liquid Ca(OH)₂ has higher densities than crystalline portlandite in this pressure range.

Recycled crustal melt injection into lithospheric mantle: implication from cumulative composite and pyroxenite xenoliths   总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3  

Hong-Fu Zhang  Eizo Nakamura  Katsura Kobayashi  Ji-Feng Ying  Yan-Jie Tang 《International Journal of Earth Sciences》2010,99(6):1167-1186

A rare composite xenolith and abundant cumulative pyroxenites obtained from the Mesozoic Fangcheng basalts on the eastern North China Craton record a complex history of melt percolation and circulation in the subcontinental lithospheric mantle. The composite xenolith has a dunite core and an olivine clinopyroxenite rim. The dunite is of cumulative origin and has a granular recrystallized texture and extremely low Mg# [100 Mg/(Mg + Fe) = 81–82] contents in olivines. The olivine clinopyroxenite contains larger clinopyroxene and/or orthopyroxene with a few fine-grained olivine and tiny phlogopite, feldspar, and/or carbonate minerals interstitial to clinopyroxene. The clinopyroxene has low Mg# (83–85). Compositional similarity between dunitic olivine and pyroxenitic one indicates a sequential crystallization of dunite and pyroxenite from a precursor melt. Pyroxenite xenoliths include olivine websterites and clinopyroxenites, both are of cumulative origin. Estimation of the melt from major oxides in olivines and REE concentrations in clinopyroxenes in these composite and pyroxenite xenoliths suggests a derivation from subducted crustal materials, consistent with the highly enriched EMII-like Sr and Nd isotopic ratios observed in the pyroxenites. Occurrence of phlogopite, feldspar and carbonate minerals in some xenoliths requires the melt rich in alkalis (K, Na), silica and volatiles (water and CO₂) at the latest stage as well, similar to highly silicic and potassic melts. Thus, the occurrence of these composite and pyroxenite xenoliths provides an evidence for voluminous injection of recycled crustal melts into the lithosphere beneath the southeastern North China Craton at the Late Mesozoic, a reason for the rapid lithospheric enrichment in both elemental and isotopic compositions.  相似文献   

Phase transition of zircon at high P-T conditions     

Shigeaki?OnoEmail author  Kenichi?Funakoshi  Yoichi?Nakajima  Yoshinori?Tange  Tomoo?Katsura 《Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology》2004,147(4):505-509

Abstract In situ observations of the zircon-reidite transition in ZrSiO₄ were carried out using a multianvil high-pressure apparatus and synchrotron radiation. The phase boundary between zircon and reidite was determined to be P (GPa) = 8.5+0.0017×(T-1200) (K) for temperatures between 1100–1900 K. When subducted slabs, including igneous rocks and sediments, descend into the upper mantle, the zircon in the subducted slab transforms into reidite at pressures of about 9 GPa, corresponding to a depth of 270 km. Reidite found in an upper Eocene impact ejecta layer in marine sediments is thought to have been transformed from zircon by a shock event. The peak pressure generated by the shock event in this occurrence is estimated to be higher than 8 GPa.Editorial responsibility: J. Hoefs  相似文献   

Aluminum substitution mechanisms in perovskite-type MgSiO<Subscript>3</Subscript>: an investigation by Rietveld analysis     

Hiroshi Kojitani  Tomoo Katsura  Masaki Akaogi 《Physics and Chemistry of Minerals》2007,34(4):257-267

Al-containing MgSiO₃ perovskites of four different compositions were synthesized at 27 GPa and 1,873 K using a Kawai-type high-pressure apparatus: stoichiometric compositions of Mg_0.975Si_0.975Al_0.05O₃ and Mg_0.95Si_0.95Al_0.10O₃ considering only coupled substitution Mg²⁺ + Si⁴⁺ = 2Al³⁺, and nonstoichiometric compositions of Mg_0.99Si_0.96Al_0.05O_2.985 and Mg_0.97Si_0.93Al_0.10O_2.98 taking account of not only the coupled substitution but also oxygen vacancy substitution 2Si⁴⁺ = 2Al³⁺ + V_O¨. Using the X-ray diffraction profiles, Rietveld analyses were performed, and the results were compared between the stoichiometric and nonstoichiometric perovskites. Lattice parameter–composition relations, in space group Pbnm, were obtained as follows. The a parameters of both of the stoichiometric and nonstoichiometric perovskites are almost constant in the X _Al range of 0–0.05, where X _Al is Al number on the basis of total cation of two (X _Al = 2Al/(Mg + Si + Al)), and decrease with further increasing X _Al. The b and c parameters of the stoichiometric perovskites increase linearly with increasing Al content. The change in the b parameter of the nonstoichiometric perovskites with Al content is the same as that of the stoichiometric perovskites within the uncertainties. The c parameter of the nonstoichiometric perovskites is slightly smaller than that of the stoichiometric perovskites at X _Al of 0.10, though they are the same as each other at X _Al of 0.05. The Si(Al)–O1 distance, Si(Al)–O1–Si(Al) angle and minimum Mg(Al)–O distance of the nonstoichiometric perovskites keep almost constant up to X _Al of 0.05, and then the Si(Al)–O1 increases and both of the Si(Al)–O1–Si(Al) angle and minimum Mg(Al)–O decrease with further Al substitution. These results suggest that the oxygen vacancy substitution may be superior to the coupled substitution up to X _Al of about 0.05 and that more Al could be substituted only by the coupled substitution at 27 GPa. The Si(Al)–O1 distance and one of two independent Si(Al)–O2 distances in Si(Al)O₆ octahedra in the nonstoichiometric perovskites are always shorter than those in the stoichiometric perovskite at the same Al content. These results imply that oxygen defects may exist in the nonstoichiometric perovskites and distribute randomly.  相似文献   

Post-seismic Effects of an M 7.2 Earthquake and Microseismicity in an Abandoned, Flooded, Deep Mine

—?An M 7.2 earthquake took place 67?km southeast of an abandoned mine containing flooded, vertical ore veins at depth of 1?km. Multidisciplinary monitoring of the unweathered country rock within the mine was carried out for a distance of about one kilometer. The M 7.2 earthquake was followed by significant post-seismic changes in strain and tilt of ～10^?6, with a self-potential of ～10?mV, and an increase in the water level in the mine of about 10?cm/day. These phenomena continued for several months before returning to pre-earthquake levels. Coseismic elastic deformations were too small to account for the observed post-seismic changes, and have different senses in strain and tilt from the observed post-seismic changes. The contractions in strain and the changes in the electric self-potential and water-elevation rate strongly suggest an increase in pore pressure. An increase in microseismic activity (M?M 7.2 earthquake.  相似文献

This paper reports the results from a second characterisation of the 91500 zircon, including data from electron probe microanalysis, laser ablation inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS), secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) and laser fluorination analyses. The focus of this initiative was to establish the suitability of this large single zircon crystal for calibrating in situ analyses of the rare earth elements and oxygen isotopes, as well as to provide working values for key geochemical systems. In addition to extensive testing of the chemical and structural homogeneity of this sample, the occurrence of banding in 91500 in both backscattered electron and cathodoluminescence images is described in detail. Blind intercomparison data reported by both LA-ICP-MS and SIMS laboratories indicate that only small systematic differences exist between the data sets provided by these two techniques. Furthermore, the use of NIST SRM 610 glass as the calibrant for SIMS analyses was found to introduce little or no systematic error into the results for zircon. Based on both laser fluorination and SIMS data, zircon 91500 seems to be very well suited for calibrating in situ oxygen isotopic analyses.  相似文献   

Differentation of magmatic emanation     

I. Iwasaki  T. Ozawa  M. Yoshida  T. Katsura  B. Iwasaki  M. Kamada 《Bulletin of Volcanology》1964,27(1):79-80

Chemical properties of magmatic emanation can be estimated roughly by i) volatiles from rocks by heating at various temperatures, ii) volcanic emanations, iii) residual magmatic emanations, iv) calculation from chemical equilibrium between volatile matters and magmas. Magmatic emanation is assumed to consist all of the volatile matters in magmas such asH ₂ O, HCl, HF, SO ₂ H ₂ S, H ₂,CO 2,N ₂ and others (halides, etc.) at about 1200°C, although various kinds of magmatic emanations can be formed at different conditions. Magmatic emanation separated from magmas will change their chemical properties by many factors such as changes of temperature and pressure (displacement of chemical equilibrium), and reactions with other substances and it will differentiate into volcanic gases, volcanic waters, volcanic sublimates, and hydrothermal deposits (hot spring deposits). At temperatures above the critical point of water, separation of solid phase (sublimates), liquid phase, and displacement of chemical equilibrium may take place, and gaseous phase will gradually change their chemical properties as will be seen at many fumaroles. Chloride, hydrogen, andSO ₂ contents will gradually decrease along with lowering temperature. Once aqueous liquid phase appears below the critical point of water, all the soluble materials may dissolve into this hydrothermal solution. Consequently, the gaseous phase at this stage must have usually a little hydrogen chloride as is observed at many fumaroles. Aqueous solutions must be of acidic nature by dissolution of acid forming components, and by hydrolysis (Chloride type). When a self-reduction-oxidation reaction of sulfurous acid takes place, an aqueous solution of sulfate type will be formed. At this stage, solid phases consist of the remained sublimates which are difficultly soluble in aqueous solution, and deposits formed by reaction in the hydrothermal solutions. The gaseous phases below the boiling point of water, have usually a little water, and consist mainly ofCO ₂ type,H ₂ S type,N ₂ type, and mixed type owing to elimination or addition of components by reactions with waters or wall rocks according to their geological conditions. Aqueous solutions which was of acidic nature must be changed into alkaline solutions by reaction with wall rocks for a long time. When the oxidation of sulfur compounds takes place, an aqueous solution of sulfate type will be formed. Hydrogen sulfide type of water will be formed by reaction of sulfides with acid waters or absorption of hydrogen sulfide. Carbonate type of water will be formed whenCO ₂ is absorbed. Solid phases at this stage consist usually of hydrothermal deposits except for that at solfatara or mofette. The course of differentiation of magmatic emanation could take place in more complicated ways than that of magmatic differentiation.  相似文献   

Statistical discrimination of foreshocks from other earthquake clusters   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Yosihiko Ogata  Tokuji Utsu  Koichi Katsura 《Geophysical Journal International》1996,127(1):17-30

When earthquake activity begins, it may be a foreshock sequence to a larger earthquake, a swarm, or a simple main-shock-aftershock sequence. This paper is concerned with the conditional probability that it will be foreshock activity of a later larger earthquake, depending on the occurrence pattern of some early events in the sequence. The earthquake catalogue of the Japan Meteorological Agency (1926-1993, M_J≥4) is decomposed into a large number of clusters in time and space in order to compare statistical features of foreshocks with those of swarms and aftershocks. Using such a data set, Ogata, Utsu & Katsura (1995) revealed some discriminating features of foreshocks relative to the other types of clusters, for example the events' closer proximity in time and space, and a tendency towards chronologically increasing magnitudes, which encouraged us to construct models which forecast the probability of the earthquakes being foreshocks. Specifically, the probability is a function of the history of magnitude differences, spans between origin times and distances between epicentres within a cluster. For purposes of illustration, the models were fitted to the early part of the data (1926-1975) and the validity of the forecasting procedure was checked on data from the later period (1976-1993). Two procedures for evaluating the performance of the probability forecast are suggested. Furthermore, for the case where only a single event is available (i.e. either it is the first event in a cluster or an isolated event), we also forecast the probability of the event being a foreshock as a function of its geographic location. Then, the validity of the forecast is demonstrated in a similar manner. Finally, making use of the multi-element prediction formula, we show that the forecasting performance is enhanced by the joint use of the information in the location of the first event, and that in the subsequent interevent history in the cluster.  相似文献
