桂林地区岩溶水87Sr/86Sr特征   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2  

王涛  王增银 《地球学报》2005,26(Z1):299-302

锶是岩石圈上部含量最大的微量元素，其元素及其同位素化学性质都比较稳定。不同水岩作用条件下，锶元素含量及其同位素值都不一样。本文通过对桂林地区的两个典型岩溶地下河系统不同类型地下水样87Sr/86Sr值和Sr含量的分析，得出；流经不同岩层的地下水其87Sr/86Sr值和Sr含量不同，同一地下河系统中不同类型地下水的87Sr/86Sr值Sr含量不同，其值的差异由岩性和水岩作用决定。说明87Sr/86Sr值能反映地下水的形成、径流和混合作用，是较理想的示踪剂，在岩溶水研究中具有很广阔的应用前景。  相似文献

Adsorbed silica in stalagmite carbonate and its relationship to past rainfall   总被引：4，自引：0，他引：4

Despite considerable work on other trace elements, the incorporation of dissolved silicon from cave waters into speleothems has not been previously investigated. In this study, the controls on dissolved Si in cave waters and on adsorbed Si in resulting speleothems are therefore investigated. Bedrock (dolomite), soil water, dripping water, and cave carbonates were retrieved from Heshang Cave situated in the central Yangtze valley of China and were subjected to analysis of dissolved Si content (plus accompanying Ca and Fe analyses). Soil waters have Si/Ca of 45.5 mmol/mol, compared to only 3.2 mmol/mol in the dolomite bedrock, demonstrating that >80% of the dissolved Si must come from dissolution of silicate minerals in the soil. Drip waters have a dissolved Si concentration of ≈4.2 μg/mL, similar to that in the overlying soil water. Actively growing cave carbonates have a Si/Ca of 0.075 mmol/mol suggesting a partition coefficient for incorporation of dissolved silicon of 0.0014, in good agreement with previous laboratory studies. Extrapolating the results of these laboratory studies to the cave environment suggests that changes in Si/Ca in cave carbonates are likely to be primarily controlled by changes in drip-water Si/Ca. The drip-water Si/Ca will, in turn, be controlled by the rate of wind-blown silicate supply; by soil weathering rates; by rainfall dilution; and by precipitation of calcite. The general expectation is that these effects combine to produce high Si/Ca in speleothems during times of low rainfall. A δ¹⁸O record from a Heshang Cave stalagmite which grew between 20 and 11 thousand years ago allows these controls to be tested. Correlation of high Si/Ca with high δ¹⁸O demonstrates that regional rainfall exerts significant (but not complete) control on speleothem Si/Ca. With further understanding, speleothem Si/Ca may provide a proxy for past rainfall to complement existing proxies such as δ¹⁸O and Mg/Ca.  相似文献   

Interpolation and mapping of probabilities for geochemical variables exhibiting spatial intermittency     

《Applied Geochemistry》2005,20(1):157-168

In monitoring a minor geochemical element in groundwater or soils, a background population of values below the instrumental detection limit is frequently present. When those values are found in the monitoring process, they are assigned to the detection limit which, in some cases, generates a probability mass in the probability density function of the variable at that value (the minimum value that can be detected). Such background values could distort both the estimation of the variable at nonsampled locations and the inference of the spatial structure of variability of the variable. Two important problems are the delineation of areas where the variable is above the detection limit and the estimation of the magnitude of the variables inside those areas. The importance of these issues in geochemical prospecting or in environmental sciences, in general related with contamination and environmental monitoring, is obvious. In this paper the authors describe the two-step procedure of indicator kriging and ordinary kriging and compare it with empirical maximum likelihood kriging. The first approach consists of using a binary indicator variable for estimating the probability of a location being above the detection limit, plus ordinary kriging conditional to the location being above the detection limit. An estimation variance, however, is not available for that estimator. Empirical maximum likelihood kriging, which was designed to deal with skew distributions, can also deal with an atom at the origin of the distribution. The method uses a Bayesian approach to kriging and gives intermittency in the form of a probability map, its estimates providing a realistic assessment of their estimation variance. The pros and cons of each method are discussed and illustrated using a large dataset of As concentration in groundwater. The results of the two methods are compared by cross-validation.  相似文献   

The age of supergene manganese deposits in Katanga and its implications for the Neogene evolution of the African Great Lakes Region     

《Ore Geology Reviews》2015

Supergene manganese deposits commonly contain K-rich Mn oxides with tunnel structure, such as cryptomelane, which are suitable for radiometric dating using the ³⁹Ar–⁴⁰Ar method. In Africa, Mn deposits have been dated by this method for localities in western and southern parts of the continent, whereas only some preliminary data are available for Central Africa. Here we present new ³⁹Ar–⁴⁰Ar ages for Mn oxide samples of the Kisenge deposit, in southwestern Katanga, Democratic Republic of the Congo. The samples represent supergene Mn oxide deposits that formed at the expense of primary Paleoproterozoic rhodochrosite-dominated carbonate ores. Main phases of Mn oxide formation are dated at c. 10.5 Ma, 3.6 Ma and 2.6 Ma for a core that crosses a mineralized interval. The latter shows a decrease in age with increasing depth, recording downward penetration of a weathering front. Surface samples of the Kisenge deposits also record a ≥ c.19.2 Ma phase, as well as c. 15.7 Ma, 14.2 Ma and 13.6 Ma phases. The obtained ages correspond to distinct periods of paleosurface development and stability during the Mio-Pliocene in Katanga. Because Katanga is a key area bordered to the North by the Congo Basin and to the East by the East African Rift System, these ages also provide constraints for the geodynamic evolution of the entire region. For the Mio-Pliocene, the Kisenge deposits record ages that are not systematically found elsewhere in Africa, although the 10.5–11 Ma event corresponds to a roughly simultaneous event in the Kalahari Manganese Field, South Africa. The rest of the Katanga paleosurface record differs somewhat from records for other parts of Africa, for which older, Eocene ages have been obtained. This difference is most probably related to the specific regional geodynamic context: uplift of the East African Plateau, with associated erosion, and the opening of the East African Rift System at c. 25 Ma are events whose effects, in the study area, interfere with those of processes responsible for the development of continent-wide paleosurfaces.  相似文献

In situ U–Pb isotopic dating of columbite–tantalite by LA–ICP–MS     

《Ore Geology Reviews》2015

Columbite–tantalite (Coltan) is the most important niobium (Nb)- and tantalum (Ta)-bearing economic mineral, commonly occurring in rare metal granite and pegmatite, alkaline granite, syenite and carbonatite. Its high U but low common Pb contents make it an ideal mineral for U–Pb isotopic dating of Nb–Ta mineralization. In order to establish a feasible coltan dating method by in situ laser-ablation (LA) ICP–MS, we determined the U–Pb ages of five coltan samples from different pegmatites and rare-metal granites in China. In order to evaluate the potential matrix effect between different minerals, a 91500 zircon was used as external standard during analyses. The results show that, compared to the recommended ages, approximately 7–15% younger ages were yielded for the analyzed coltan samples in both single spot and line raster scan analytical methods, indicating a significant matrix effect between coltan and zircon. However, by using a coltan standard from Namibia (Coltan139), the coltan sample from Dahe pegmatite (SNNT) has a weighted mean ²⁰⁶Pb/²³⁸U age of 363 ± 4 Ma (2σ, n = 25) and 357 ± 5 Ma (2σ, n = 20) in single spot and line raster scan analytical methods, respectively; the coltan samples from Altai No.3 pegmatite (713-79), Yichun topaz-lepidolite granite (Yi-1) and Huangshan albite granite (LS-15) have weighted mean ²⁰⁶Pb/²³⁸U ages of 218 ± 2 Ma (2σ, n = 20), 160 ± 1 Ma (2σ, n = 20) and 130 ± 1 Ma (2σ, n = 20), respectively, in single spot mode. These ages agree well with the previously published data, and hence support the reliability of our analytical method. Although the analyzed coltan minerals show a large variation of chemical compositions, no significant matrix effect was observed, which suggests that a coltan material should be used as an external standard for U–Pb dating of coltan by LA–ICP–MS. Using the established analytical protocol, we date the Nanping pegmatite (NP155), a main Nb–Ta deposit in China without known age, and obtain a weighted mean ²⁰⁶Pb/²³⁸U age of 391 ± 4 Ma (2σ, n = 20), which is considered as the best estimation of Nb–Ta mineralization time in the area.  相似文献   

Ocean current estimation using a Multi-Model Ensemble Kalman Filter during the Grand Lagrangian Deployment experiment (GLAD)     

《Ocean Modelling》2015

In the summer and fall of 2012, during the GLAD experiment in the Gulf of Mexico, the Consortium for Advanced Research on Transport of Hydrocarbon in the Environment (CARTHE) used several ocean models to assist the deployment of more than 300 surface drifters. The Navy Coastal Ocean Model (NCOM) at 1 km and 3 km resolutions, the US Navy operational NCOM at 3 km resolution (AMSEAS), and two versions of the Hybrid Coordinates Ocean Model (HYCOM) set at 4 km were running daily and delivering 72-h range forecasts. They all assimilated remote sensing and local profile data but they were not assimilating the drifter’s observations. This work presents a non-intrusive methodology named Multi-Model Ensemble Kalman Filter that allows assimilating the local drifter data into such a set of models, to produce improved ocean currents forecasts. The filter is to be used when several modeling systems or ensembles are available and/or observations are not entirely handled by the operational data assimilation process. It allows using generic in situ measurements over short time windows to improve the predictability of local ocean dynamics and associated high-resolution parameters of interest for which a forward model exists (e.g. oil spill plumes). Results can be used for operational applications or to derive enhanced background fields for other data assimilation systems, thus providing an expedite method to non-intrusively assimilate local observations of variables with complex operators. Results for the GLAD experiment show the method can improve water velocity predictions along the observed drifter trajectories, hence enhancing the skills of the models to predict individual trajectories.  相似文献   

Zircon U–Pb ages and Hf isotope compositions of migmatites from the North Qinling terrane and their geological implications     

Q. Liu  Y.‐B. Wu  H. Wang  S. Gao  Z.‐W. Qin  X.‐C. Liu  S.‐H. Yang  H.‐J. Gong 《Journal of Metamorphic Geology》2014,32(2):177-193

Migmatites are predominant in the North Qinling (NQ) orogen, but their formation ages are poorly constrained. This paper presents a combined study of cathodoluminescence imaging, U–Pb age, trace element and Hf isotopes of zircon in migmatites from the NQ unit. In the migmatites, most zircon grains occur as new, homogeneous crystals, while some are present as overgrowth rims around inherited cores. Morphological and trace element features suggest that the zircon crystals are metamorphic and formed during partial melting. The inherited cores have oscillatory zoning and yield U–Pb ages of c. 900 Ma, representing their protolith ages. The early Neoproterozoic protoliths probably formed in an active continental margin, being a response to the assembly of the supercontinent Rodinia. The migmatite zircon yields Hf model ages of 1911 ± 20 to 990 ± 22 Ma, indicating that the protoliths were derived from reworking of Palaeoproterozoic to Neoproterozoic crustal materials. The anatexis zircon yields formation ages ranging from 455 ± 5 to 420 ± 4 Ma, with a peak at c. 435 Ma. Combined with previous results, we suggest that the migmatization of the NQ terrane occurred at c. 455–400 Ma. The migmatization was c. 50 Ma later than the c. 490 Ma ultra‐high‐P (UHP) metamorphism, indicating that they occurred in two independent tectonic events. By contrast, the migmatization was coeval with the granulite facies metamorphism and the granitic magmatism in the NQ unit, which collectively argue for their formation due to the northward subduction of the Shangdan Ocean. UHP rocks were distributed mainly along the northern margin and occasionally in the inner part of the NQ unit, indicating that they were exhumed along the northern edge and detached from the basement by the subsequent migmatization process.  相似文献
