Non-aromatic biomarkers associated with a Palaeogene salt formation (Bresse, France)     

P. Baranger  J.R. Disnar   《Organic Geochemistry》1988,13(4-6)

This study provides information on non-aromatic hydrocarbons contained in thick Palaeogene halite sequences in the Bresse region (France). The presence of almost uniquely biological markers and the absence of thermogenic compounds denote the low maturity of the corresponding samples consistent with Rock-Eval pyrolysis data. The distribution of n-alkanes enables the distinction of three main biological signatures: algal (mode in nC17–nC18); terrestrial (mode in nC29–nC31) and bacterial (mode in nC25–nC26 with no odd-even carbon number predominance). As to the cyclic biomarkers, hopanes and hopenes are largely predominant over steranes and diasterenes in samples having received appreciable amounts of terrestrial inputs (Type B) and conversely for the samples containing high proportions of algal debris (Type A, Type C).  相似文献   

Steroid and triterpenoid distributions in bransfield strait sediments: Hydrothermally-enhanced diagenetic transformations     

Martine Brault  Bernd R.T. Simoneit 《Organic Geochemistry》1988,13(4-6)

Recent sediments from Bransfield Strait, Antarctica have been analyzed for triterpenoid and steroid hydrocarbons, sterols and steroid ketones to consider the effects of hydrothermal fluids on the sedimentary organic matter. The steroid distributions in unaltered and altered sediments are controlled more by inputs from source organisms than by the effects of hydrothermal activity, which is suggested to be limited to low temperature alteration. Nevertheless, chemical reactions occurred in altered sediments and include dehydration of sterols to sterenes, isomerization of triterpenes and sterenes, rearrangement of sterenes to diasterenes and reductive processes leading to generation of phytane from phytol via phytenes.  相似文献   

Two bioerosion ichnofacies produced by early and late burial associated with sea-level change     

Richard G. Bromley  Ulla Asgaard 《International Journal of Earth Sciences》1993,82(2):276-280

In bioerosion, as in trace fossils as a whole, deeply emplaced structures have greater survival value than shallow structures. That is to say, tiering (the relative depth to which rasping, etching and boring organisms penetrate their substrate) is of paramount importance for the preservation potential of individual trace fossils. An Entobia ichnofacies is established for trace fossil assemblages dominated by deep tier borings and arising from long-term bioerosion, such as occurs on sediment-free submarine cliffs or hardgrounds. A Gnathichnus ichnofacies comprises assemblages containing all tiers, including superficial sculptures produced by radulation that have very little preservation potential. Such assemblages occur in short-term bioerosion situations as on shell surfaces and hardgrounds buried early by sedimentation. Correspondence to: R. G. Bromley  相似文献   

Identification and occurrence of novel C₃₆–C₅₄ 3,4-dialkylthiophenes with an unusual carbon skeleton in immature sediments     

M.E.L. Kohnen  T.M. Peakman  J.S.Sinninghe Damste  J.W. de Leeuw 《Organic Geochemistry》1990,16(4-6)

A series of novel long-chain 3,4-dialkylthiophenes (C₃₆–C₅₄) was identified in a number of sediments ranging from Pleistocene to Cretaceous. The identifications were based on mass spectral characterisation, desulphurisation and mass spectral data of synthesised model compounds. These organic sulphur compounds are probably formed by sulphur incorporation into mid-chain dimethylalkadienes with two methylenic double bonds. These putative precursor lipids are unprecedented and may be considered rather unusual. The distribution of 3,4-dialkylthiophenes in sediments varies considerably with the depositional palaeoenvironment, indicating that these compounds have a potential as molecular markers reflecting changes in palaeoenvironment.  相似文献   

湖北京山地区寒武—奥陶系碳酸盐岩成岩作用及孔隙演化     

万静萍  马立祥  杨木壮 《地球科学》1990,(6)

本文通过对京山地区寒武—奥陶系碳酸盐岩成岩作用和孔隙演化的研究,认为本区寒武—奥陶系普遍经历了海底、大气淡水、埋藏及表生成岩环境,其间发生的成岩作用主要有胶结作用、白云岩化、压实-压溶、溶蚀和破裂作用。在这些成岩作用的改造下,岩石孔隙度从大于20％下降到1.5～5％,其中在中新生代孔隙相对较发育。  相似文献   

Carbohydrates in recent marine sediments—II. Occurrence and fate of carbohydrates in a recent stromatolitic deposit: Solar Lake,Sinai     

J. Klok  H.C. Cox  M. Baas  J.W. de Leeuw  P.A. Schenck 《Organic Geochemistry》1984,7(2):101-109

In a study on the diagenesis of carbohydrates in a recent stromatolitic deposit (Solar Lake, Sinai) monosaccharides are quantitated after mild acid hydrolysis and gas chromatographic analysis as alditol acetates. From the depth profiles of the individual monosaccharides relative to the total organic carbon three categories of carbohydrates can be distinguished. The behaviour of the various categories upon burial is discussed in terms of their potential to become a part of the organic matter that survives geological periods. The distribution patterns of especially the mono-O-methyl monosaccharides at various depths are characteristics for the bacterial communities present in the corresponding parts of the sediment column.  相似文献

江西修水二叠系-三叠系界线地层有一段特殊构造的地层，下部为灰色部分和红色部分组成的斑状构造，上部为灰色部分和黄色部分组成的树枝状构造。这种树枝状构造的岩石与前人报道自重庆老龙洞剖面的微生物岩非常相似。岩石薄片观察表明，树枝状构造的暗色部分为残留的灰泥岩；浅色部分为灰岩经过重结晶、白云石化去白云石化作用改造而成。在暗色的残留灰岩里有保存很好的丰富的球状微生物化石。研究认为，岩石中暗色部分和浅色部分的原始组分是同时沉积的；是成岩作用控制了浅色部分的形成。这一成果应当对认识老龙洞剖面树枝状微生物岩的成因有借鉴作用。  相似文献

Simulation of diagenesis and permeability variation in two-dimensional rock structure     

S. Sadhukhan  T. Dutta  S. Tarafdar 《Geophysical Journal International》2007,169(3):1366-1375

A model is suggested to simulate the physical aspect of diagenesis in porous rocks. A bidisperse ballistic deposition model with relaxation of deposited grains is used to generate the porous structure. Sedimentation and erosion are allowed to restructure the pore space as a fluid flows through the rock. The effect of this restructuring of the pore space on permeability is studied. The Navier–Stokes equation is solved numerically by the finite difference method to determine the pressure and velocity distributions in the pore space. We find that though deposition is the dominant process in our model of diagenesis, reducing the porosity, the permeability may increase dramatically in some cases. These are when the erosion takes place at a single narrow constriction in the pore channel.  相似文献   

Characteristics and Genetic Analysis of the Deep-buried Weathered-crust Karst Hydrocarbon Reservoirs of the Lower Paleozoic Group in the Tarim Basin     

GU Jiayu  ZHANG Xingyang  FANG HuiResearch Institute of Petroleum Exploration  Development of PetroChin  Beijing 《《地质学报》英文版》2002,76(4):494-502

The genetic analysis of the deep-buried reservoirs of the Lower Paleozoic carbonate rocks in the Tarim basin is a difficult task involving many factors. Firstly, the object of study is carbonate rocks, which have undergone a long term of modification. Secondly, the rocks are deeply buried with depths of 3800-7000 m in the Tarim basin. The primary reservoir properties formed in the deposition have been strongly modified during the deep burial process. Concurrently, the different burial depths in different areas result in diversities of burial temperature, pressure, underground water, hydrochemistry and various physicochemical changes, which further lead to differences in the diagenetic type, diagenetic property, diagenetic degree and their impacts on the reservoir properties. The Lower Paleozoic Cambrian and Ordovician carbonate reservoirs in the Tarim basin can be grouped into four types, i.e., paleo-weathered-crust reservoirs, reef reservoirs, buried karst reservoirs and dolomite reservoirs.
