Reconstruction of Alpine Cenozoic paleorelief through the analysis of caves at Siebenhengste (BE,Switzerland)     

《Geodinamica Acta》2002,15(5-6):261-276

The cave region of Siebenhengste, situated north of Lake Thun (Switzerland), contains one of the most important cave systems in the world, which extends from 500 to 2000 m a.s.l. It has a complex multiphase history. The recognized speleogenetic phases are related to spring level and to old valley floors. The six most recent phases were investigated in St. Beatus cave and Bärenschacht. They suggest a progressive Quarternary Aare valley incision to 890, 805, 760, 700, 660, and 558 m a.s.l. that is confirmed by statistical analysis of small caves. U/Th-datings of flowstone allowed a timing of the valley deepening phases: the valley bottom was at 760 m already before 350 ka, the one at 700 m was active between 235 and 160 ka. The cave morphology in the upper part of the cave system was coupled with sedimentological observations. This combination leads to the hypothesis that the uppermost (oldest) cave parts were already created in the Miocene, during and after the last deposition of the Molasse. Ideas about the evolution of the paleorelief suggest that today's Aare valley is a product of glacial erosion, and that the old Aare valley shifted its position several times between the Miocene and today.  相似文献   

Provenance and tectonic settings of the Late Paleozoic sandstones in central Inner Mongolia,NE China: Constraints on the evolution of the southeastern Central Asian Orogenic Belt     

《Gondwana Research》2020

Late Paleozoic sedimentary strata outcrop extensively in central Inner Mongolia, and are a key to understanding the tectonic evolution of the southeastern Central Orogenic Belt. A combined analysis of petrography, whole-rock major and trace element, and Nd isotope is carried out on representative sandstones from the Late Paleozoic sedimentary strata (420–270 Ma). The sandstones are mainly wackes and litharenites in lithology, with low SiO₂/Al₂O₃ of 2.85–9.47 (averagely 5.22) and poor textural and compositional maturities, implying short sediment transportation between the depositional basins and provenances. The trace element compositions are generally comparable to that of the average upper continent crust (UCC), with negatively-sloping chondrite-normalized rare earth element distribution patterns ((La/Yb)_N = 3.43–11; averagely 6.94) and flat UCC-normalized trace element distribution patterns. The Nd isotopic compositions show great variation (Ԑ_Nd(t) = −5.01 to 5.35) with depositional time of the sandstones, and coincide well with the arc magmatic phases in central Inner Mongolia. The geochemical signatures of the sandstones indicate that the dominant provenances are intermediate to felsic arc magmatic rocks that have ages approximating the deposition, although old, recycled sediments may have made a minor contribution. An active continental arc setting during the Late Paleozoic in central Inner Mongolia, controlled by the northward subduction of the Paleo-Asian oceanic slab, was the most likely depositional tectonic setting of the sandstones. This active continental arc setting continued to at least 270 Ma, implying that the final closure of the Paleo-Asian Ocean along the Solonker suture zone most likely occurred sometime during the Late Permian to Early Triassic. The northward subduction of the Paleo-Asian Ocean is likely of West Pacific-style, in which the present-day Baolidao arc has a close genetic link with the South Mongolian microcontinent and, likely, the former originally formed as the arc margin of the latter.  相似文献   

High‐T and low‐P metamorphism in the Xilingol Complex of central Inner Mongolia,China: An indicator of extension in a previous orogeny          下载免费PDF全文

The Xilingol Complex comprises biotite gneisses and amphibolite interlayers with extensive migmatization. Four representative samples were documented and found to record either two or three metamorphic stages. Phase modelling using thermocalc suggests that the observed assemblages represent the final stages that underwent cooling from temperature peaks, and are consistent with a fluid‐absent solidus in P–T pseudosections. Their P–T conditions are further constrained to be 5–6 kbar/680–725°C and 4–5 kbar/650–680°C for two garnet‐bearing gneiss samples, 4–5 kbar/660–730°C for a cordierite‐bearing gneiss sample, and 4–5 kbar/680–710°C for an amphibolite sample based on mineral composition isopleths, involving measured Mg content in biotite, anorthite in plagioclase, grossular and pyrope in garnet and Ti content in amphibole. The peak temperature conditions recovered are 760–790°C or >760°C at 5–6 kbar based on the composition isopleths of plagioclase, biotite, garnet and especially the comparison of melt contents between the calculated and observed. A pre‐peak heating process with slight decompression can be suggested for some samples on the basis of the core–rim increase in the plagioclase anorthite, and the stability of ilmenite. Zircon U–Pb dating using the LA‐ICP‐MS method provides systemic constraints on the metamorphic ages of the Xilingol Complex to be 348–305 Ma, interpreted to represent the post‐peak cooling stages. Moreover, metagabbroic dykes that intruded into the Xilingol Complex yield 317 ± 3 Ma from magmatic zircon, and are considered to have played a significant role for heat advection triggering the high‐T and low‐P metamorphism. Thus, the clockwise P–T paths involving pre‐peak heating, peak and post‐peak cooling recovered for the Xilingol Complex are consistent with an extensional setting in the Carboniferous that developed on a previous orogen in response to addition of mantle‐derived materials probably together with upwelling of the asthenospheric mantle.  相似文献

系统研究了夹皮沟地区二道沟、庙岭、大猪圈、下戏台和东坨腰子等矿床矿体和近矿围岩微量元素、矿石矿物组合和黄铁矿热电系数等的垂直变化特征,认为三者具有相互一致的变化规律,即：与热液金矿床通常的分带性相比,具有逆向分带的现象,这种特征被认为是多层次正常分带上下叠加的产物,反映夹皮沟地区金矿床在垂向上普遍存在着多个富集地段.据此预测二道沟、庙岭、大猪圈、下戏台和东坨腰子等矿床在目前的开采深度下部仍有发现深部矿体的可能.  相似文献

文章通过对大量前人构造地质学、同位素年代学等多元信息资料的分析,认为胶东中生代花岗岩和大型-超大型金矿床形成于华南-华北克拉通后碰撞挤压和伊泽奈崎板块快速斜冲剪切的双重构造环境及其后的拉张构造环境。胶东大型-超大型金矿床受控于经历了韧-脆性剪切、挤压-拉张复杂变形叠加的大型构造岩带,同时也受控于被断裂叠加的花岗岩接触带。根据铅、硫等同位素组成特征及地质构造环境的综合分析,认为成矿物质主要来自以太古宙胶东岩群绿岩和深成岩组成的结晶基底,不排除煌斑岩浆带来部分深源物质;根据流体包裹体的氢、氧、碳同位素组成,判断成矿流体为大气水和岩浆水的混合流体;成矿条件为中低温（380～100℃）,低压（86～5．4MPa）;成矿时代为燕山晚期（125～100Ma）,成矿与燕山晚期拉张环境下的岩浆活动有成因联系,属环太平洋成矿带中温热液金矿床。  相似文献   

Origin and Evolution of Aquitard Porewater in the Western Coastal Plain of Bohai Bay,China   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2       下载免费PDF全文

High‐salinity paleowater from low‐permeability aquitards in coastal areas can be a major threat to groundwater resources; however, such water has rarely been studied. The chemical and isotopic compositions of porewater extracted from a 200‐m‐thick Quaternary sedimentary sequence in the western coastal plain of Bohai Bay, China, were analyzed to investigate the salinity origin and chemical evolution of porewater in aquitards. Porewater samples derived at depths shallower than 32 m are characterized by Cl‐Na type saline water (total dissolved solids [TDS], 10.9–84.3 g/L), whereas those at depths greater than 32 m comprise Cl·SO₄‐Na type brackish water (TDS, 2.2–6.3 g/L). Saline porewater is interpreted as evaporated seawater prior to halite saturation, as evidenced by Cl‐Br relationships. Although substantial dilution of saline porewater with meteoric water is supported by a wider Cl^? range and δ²H‐δ¹⁸O covariance, the original marine waters were not completely flushed out. The deeper brackish porewater is determined to be a mixture of fresher porewater and brine groundwater and had a component of old brine of less than 10%, as indicated by a mixing model defined using δ²H and Cl^? tracers. Porewater δ²H‐δ¹⁸O relationships and negative deuterium excess ranging from ?25.9‰ to ?2.9‰ indicate the existence of an arid climate since Late Pleistocene in Tianjin Plain. The aquitard porewaters were chemically modified through water‐rock interactions due to the long residence time.  相似文献

天山是全球第二大金矿富集区,世界级和大型-超大型金矿床东西成带横贯中国新疆中部—哈萨克斯坦东南部—吉尔吉斯斯坦—乌兹别克斯坦,构成巨型跨境金成矿带。天山巨型跨境金成矿带和重要金矿床形成的地质环境、成矿的控制要素、找矿勘查的标志都是学术界和工业界高度关注的重大地质和找矿问题。通过广泛、深入地文献调研和境内外天山较全面野外地质矿产调查与研究,本文认为中-哈-吉-乌天山大规模金成矿主体形成于晚石炭世—早二叠世古亚洲洋闭合后的陆块拼贴变形过程,部分形成于中—晚二叠世陆内走滑变形过程。中天山南、北缘古缝合带及其附近的大型脆性/韧-脆性变形带是巨量金成矿的关键控制因素,多期叠加复合成矿是天山变形带容矿金矿床的显著特征。地壳初始富集、构造变形活化、岩浆热液叠加是天山变形带容矿金矿床的主控因素。“碳质细碎屑岩+脆韧性变形带+海西末期岩体”是中-哈-吉-乌天山变形带容矿大型-超大型金矿的找矿标志组合。  相似文献

西天山产有Muruntau、Kumtor、Kalmakyr等巨型金矿床和Kalmakyr、Dal'neye等世界级铜矿床以及Tekeli等超大型铅锌矿床,构成世人瞩目的巨型金铜铅锌成矿带.新疆西天山金、铜、铅锌矿找矿面临重大突破,不断认识乌兹别克斯坦—吉尔吉斯斯坦—哈萨克斯坦东南部—中国新疆西部整个西天山的构造成矿过程,明确新疆西天山金、铜、铅锌矿重大找矿突破方向,预测大型矿集区十分必要.本文通过境内外野外地质矿产广泛调研和对相关文献综合研究,认为西天山造山带形成演化经历前寒武纪古陆边缘裂陷盆地、古生代洋-陆俯冲增生、晚古生代陆-陆碰撞造山、中—新生代坳陷盆地四个主要地质过程,造就出四类重要成矿系统和类型:①元古宙边缘裂陷盆地铅锌成矿系统SEDEX型;②古生代俯冲岛弧金铜铅锌成矿系统斑岩-矽卡岩-浅成低温热液型;③晚古生代碰撞造山金铅锌成矿系统造山型-MVT;④中—新生代坳陷盆地铅锌铜成矿系统砂岩型.综合对比西天山境内外成矿系统地质发育特点,预测新疆西天山那拉提-额尔宾中天山隆起带是造山型金矿找矿重大突破区,吐拉苏盆地和巴音布鲁克中天山以及那拉提山北坡有望实现斑岩型金铜找矿突破,伊犁地块南缘元古宇SEDEX型铅锌找矿值得关注,山间/山前盆地无疑是砂岩型铅锌铜找矿优先选择.  相似文献
