INTRODUCTIONThe Mesoproterozoic Wumishan Formation in Jixian,Tianjin is a succession of 3 300 m thick carbonate strata (Fig.1) where stromatolite biostromes and thrombolite bioherms arebest developed. The formation period of Wumishan Formation,about 100 Ma ((310120) Ma, (l 2071 10) Ma. Wang et al.,1995), is categorized as the Ectasian period of the Mesoproterozoic. Varieties of stromatolites in Wumishan Formation,such as Pseudogymnosolen mopanyuense, Scyphus parous,Conophoton conse…  相似文献   

The metamorphic complex of Beloretzk, SW Urals, Russia — a terrane with a polyphase Meso- to Neoproterozoic thermo-dynamic evolution

An integrated geological study of the tectono-metamorphic evolution of the metamorphic complex of Beloretzk (MCB) which is part of the eastern Bashkirian mega-anticlinorium (BMA), SW Urals, Russia shows that the main lithological units are Neoproterozoic (Riphean and Vendian age) siliciclastic to carbonate successions. Granitic, syenitic and mafic intrusions together with subaerial equivalents comprise the Neo- and Mesoproterozoic magmatic rocks. The metamorphic grade ranges from diagenetic and very low grade in the western BMA to high-grade in the MCB. The N–S trending Zuratkul fault marks the change in metamorphic grade and structural evolution between the central and eastern BMA. Structural data, Pb/Pb-single zircon ages, ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar cooling ages and the provenance signature of Riphean and Vendian siliciclastic rocks in the western BMA give evidence of Mesoproterozoic (Grenvillian) rifting, deformation and eclogite-facies metamorphism in the MCB and a Neoproterozoic (Cadomian) orogenic event in the SW Urals. Three pre-Ordovician deformation phases can be identified in the MCB. The first SSE-vergent, isoclinal folding phase (D₁) is younger than the intrusion of mafic dykes (Pb/Pb-single zircon: 1350 Ma) and older than the eclogite-facies metamorphism. High P/low T eclogite-facies metamorphism is bracketed by D₁ and the intrusion of the Achmerovo granite (Pb/Pb-single zircon: ≤970 Ma). An extensional, sinistral, top-down-to-NW directed shearing (D₂) is correlated with the first exhumation of the MCB. E-vergent folding and thrusting (D₃) occurred at retrograde greenschist-facies metamorphic conditions. The tremolite ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar cooling age (718±5 Ma) of amphibolitic eclogite and muscovite ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar cooling ages (about 550 Ma) of mica schists indicate that a maximum temperature of 500±50 °C was not reached during the Neoproterozoic orogeny. The style and timing of the Neoproterozoic orogeny show similarities to the Cadomian-aged Timan Range NW of the Polar Urals. Geochronological and thermochronological data together with the abrupt change in structural style and metamorphism east of the Zuratkul fault, suggest that the MCB is exotic with respect to the SE-margin of the East European Platform. Thus, the MCB is named the ‘Beloretzk Terrane’. Recognition of the ‘Beloretzk Terrane’ and the Neoproterozoic orogeny at the eastern margin of Baltica has important implications for Neoproterozoic plate reconstruction and suggests that the eastern margin of Baltica might have lain close to the Avalonian–Cadomian belt.  相似文献   

SHRIMP baddeleyite age for the Fraser Dyke Swarm,southeast Yilgarn Craton,Western Australia     

M. T. D. Wingate  I. H. Campbell  L. B. Harris 《Australian Journal of Earth Sciences》2013,60(2):309-313

Recent high‐resolution aeromagnetic data have delineated an extensive swarm of undeformed northeast‐trending dolerite dykes in the southeastern Yilgarn Craton, known previously only from isolated exposures in surface mining operations. Owing to parallelism of the dykes to the Fraser Mobile Belt, the eastern segment of the Albany‐Fraser Orogen, the swarm is referred to here as the Fraser Dyke Swarm. Ion‐microprobe dating of baddeleyite from a granophyric segregation in the centre of one dyke yields a mean ²⁰⁷Pb/²⁰⁶Pb age of 1212 ± 10 Ma (95% confidence limits). The location of the Fraser Dyke Swarm, adjacent and parallel to the Fraser Mobile Belt, suggests that the dykes may have been emplaced into lines of weakness that originated during tectonic loading and downwards flexure of the craton margin. This is the first evidence of ca 1210 Ma mafic dykes and associated crustal‐scale extension in the southeast Yilgarn Craton, although the age is similar to those reported recently for dolerite and quartz diorite dykes in the central and southern part of the craton, suggesting that a genetic relationship may exist between intrusions in the two areas.  相似文献   

华北地台西缘中元古界蓟县系墩子沟群特征及其地质意义   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

许安东  姜修道 《地球科学与环境学报》2003,25(4):27-31

华北地台西缘龙首山中元古界墩子沟群是一套基本没有变质的盖层性质的沉积,根据岩性可划分为三个组下组以砾岩为主,具底砾岩性质;中组是以灰岩为主的浅海碳酸盐沉积;上组是一套细粒的陆源碎屑岩.其下与古元古界龙首山岩群的角度不整合面代表吕梁运动,与华北地台主体相比缺失长城系和青白口系.墩子沟群分布特征是中组分布广,厚度和岩相都比较稳定,下组的陆源粗碎屑岩东部区域较厚,分选磨圆都比较好,岩相厚度稳定,粒度较细,如金昌的河西堡、永昌的韩母山一带.西部区域厚度薄分选磨圆均差,岩相厚度不稳定,有的部位缺失此组沉积或以很薄的底砾岩产出,如张掖东大山、山丹独峰顶一带.说明当时海侵自东向西侵进,反映出华北地台在蓟县纪中期形成海进,明显向西超覆的特点.墩子沟群虽然变质轻微但变形却十分强烈,其原因一方面内部有滑塌形成的同生角砾岩和层间小褶皱、揉皱等准同生构造,说明当时的地形有一定的坡度;另一方面后期又受到祁连运动的影响所致.  相似文献

从18到16亿年,全球构造格局、古地理环境及生物演化发生重要变革。就全球地质演化历史而言,结晶基底的形成标志着古元古代的结束,而稳定盖层的发育标志着中元古代的开始。在国际地层年表上,古元古代末期(18~16亿年)被称之为"固结纪",古/中元古代的界线被划定在16亿年。在华北克拉通,一般认为"吕梁运动"是结晶基底最终形成的标志性构造-热事件,此后发育以长城系为代表的地台型沉积盖层。长期以来,我国地质界一直以长城系的沉积代表中元古代的开始,并将古/中元古代的界限置于18亿年,与国际地层年表相差2亿年,以至于在中外文献中对中国18~16亿年间的地质记录的表述方式混乱。究其原因,主要有:1华北克拉通基底的形成或最终克拉通化是以"吕梁运动"的结束为标志,结晶基底最晚期的变质年龄不晚于18亿年;2长城系的底界年龄(18亿年)一直缺乏可靠的数据,目前对华北克拉通范围内稳定盖层发育的起始时间及代表性沉积记录,尚无统一的认识;3对华北克拉通由基底形成到盖层的演化及构造体制转折的动力学过程等见解不一,也缺少精细的年代学制约。本文综述了华北克拉通尤其是南部地区18~16亿年岩浆-沉积记录的研究进展,就古/中元古代界线及相关地层对比和划分方案进行了讨论,并指出了亟需解决的重要科学问题。作者认为:1华北克拉通18~16亿年的火山-沉积记录在其南部地区最广泛、最完整。其中,熊耳群火山岩系(18~17.5亿年),包括底部发育的河湖相砂岩-泥岩沉积——大古石组,早于蓟县剖面的长城群,是华北陆块结晶基底形成后最早的盖层沉积。2华北克拉通古/中元古代的分界年龄目前有2种选择:一是18亿年,即熊耳群火山岩系底部大古石组的起始沉积年龄;二是16亿年,将蓟县剖面长城系的高于庄组划归蓟县系,长城系的大红峪组及以下地层归为古元古代,18~16亿年的火山-沉积岩系均归为古元古代末期的固结纪。3华北克拉通18~16亿年的地质记录包括早期的熊耳群和晚期的长城群火山-沉积岩系,以及多期次的基性岩墙、斜长岩杂岩体、A-型花岗岩(包括环斑花岗岩)等的发育。目前对它们的成因和产出的地球动力学背景存有诸多争议,精确构建该时期岩浆-沉积作用的时序,并与全球典型克拉通进行对比,进而解析华北克拉通由结晶基底形成到稳定盖层发育阶段的构造体制转折和动力学过程,为重新厘定古/中元古代界线和相关地层划分方案提供依据。这些是我国前寒武纪地质研究的重要课题。  相似文献

中元古代常州沟组是华北克拉通北缘燕山地区变质结晶基底上的第一套沉积盖层,不整合覆盖于新太古代各类片麻岩之上。为了解常州沟组时期的古环境、古气候及其物质来源、构造环境和盆地性质,在野外地质调查的基础上,对常州沟组砂岩进行了粒度分析和地球化学分析测试。岩石组合、沉积构造和粒度分析结果指示区内常州沟组沉积环境演化由下至上依次为冲积扇、辫状河和碎屑潮坪。常州沟组砂岩地球化学特征具有高SiO₂、Al₂O₃和K₂O,低TiO₂、Fe₂O₃、FeO、MgO含量的特点,成熟度较高,化学蚀变指数(CIA)介于52.00～73.23之间,化学风化作用指数(CIW)范围为93.04～98.68。由于岩石遭受钾交代作用影响,结合A-CN-K图解、Th/U-Th图解和古气候判别图综合分析,认为源区可能经历了较强的风化作用,古气候温暖、潮湿。Cr/Zr、Th/Sc、Ba/Sr、Rb/Sr值和La/Th-Hf图解指示常州沟组源区属性主要为上地壳环境,原岩成分以长英...  相似文献

Through the re-investigation and understanding of the “mud crack-like sedimentary structure” in the Qiaotou Formation from late Mesoproterozoic to early Neoproterozoic in the eastern Liaoning, and by comparing with the contemporaneous microbial induced sedimentary structure (MISS) in other areas of the NCC, For the first time, the fractured sedimentary structure discovered in the Qiaotou Formation in Liaoning was identified as MISS.Results: The fissure structure found in the Qiaotou Formation is MISS, which is formed by the physical destruction of microbial mats.Conclusions: The MISS identified in the Qiaotou Formation has spindle-like, three-connected ornithoid and partially connected branched morphology, so it is speculated that the Qiaotou Formation was formed in the sedimentary environment of the upper part of the supratidal zone. This discovery provides basis for stratigraphic and sedimentological studies of the Qiaotou Formation, and is of great significance for studying the evolution of early life on earth and exploring the long-term impact of biota on the atmosphere and hydrosphere.  相似文献
