Microtexture describes the type of particles and their arrangement in matrix samples at scanning electron microscopy scale. Although a microtexture classification exists for micritic limestone, it cannot be directly applied to chalk. This study therefore proposes a classification of chalk microtextures and discusses the origin of microtexture variability. Chalk was sampled at thirteen spatio‐temporal locations along the coastline of northern France (Cenomanian–Santonian). Four criteria are defined to describe, characterize and determine chalk matrix microtexture: (i) mineralogical content; (ii) biogenic fraction; (iii) micritic fraction; and (iv) cement fraction. From these criteria, two major groups are defined: Pure Chalk Microtexture Group, with seven classes, and Impure Chalk Microtexture Group, divided into two subgroups: Argillaceous Microtexture with four classes and Siliceous Microtexture with two classes. Microtexture variability is related both to initial sedimentation and to diagenesis. Sedimentological conditions (for example, climate and distance from shore) affect chalk composition (carbonate content and type of insoluble particles), thus influencing microtexture. Changes in Pure Chalk Microtexture are the result of increasing diagenetic intensity. This classification can also be used to characterize the microtexture of subsurface chalk reservoirs. Reservoir quality depends on the petrophysical and mechanical properties of reservoir rocks, which can be better understood by exploring their sedimentary and diagenetic history, revealed by the study of chalk microtexture variability.  相似文献   

我国微米级无机多孔非金属矿及其应用   总被引：8，自引：0，他引：8  

木士春 《高校地质学报》2000,6(2):340-344

无机多孔非金属矿,按孔径及其应用特点可划分为纳米级(1～100nm )、微米级（0.1～100μm)及毫米级（0.1～1mm)等三种类型。微米级多孔非金属矿主要有硅藻土、轻质蛋白石、多孔凝灰岩、多孔硅质岩等,大都分布于地台活化区内,为后地台稳定条件下形成。它们的物相主要为蛋白石、微晶石英或流纹质玻屑等;化学成分上具有高硅、低铝铁等特征;孔隙结构除具有孔径相似、孔形态丰富、孔隙率大、堆密度小及多开孔等相似性外,在微米级孔径范围内（0.1～100μm）,孔隙的大小、形状及抗压强度等方面也具有相异性。因此它们具有与纳米级和毫米级多孔非金属矿不同的应用领域。  相似文献   

秘鲁蓝色蛋白石矿物学性质及致色机理初探     

邢莹莹  亓利剑  王海涛 《岩矿测试》2017,36(6):608-613

近年来蓝色蛋白石的研究仅限于矿物成分及致色机理,并未对其化学成分、红外光谱、拉曼光谱等开展较为深入的分析。本文在前人的研究基础上,通过傅里叶变换红外光谱(FTIR)、X射线粉晶衍射(XRD)、电子探针分析(EMPA)、紫外可见分光光谱、拉曼光谱等技术对样品的振动光谱、官能团表征、矿物组成及呈色机理进行研究。研究结果表明:蓝色蛋白石的主要组成矿物为非晶态蛋白石,且振动光谱与天然蛋白石存在一定程度的频率位移。EMPA分析结果显示蓝色蛋白石主要元素为Si和Cu,且紫外可见分光光谱表征为742 nm附近一吸收强度较高的宽谱带。综合电子探针和紫外可见吸收光谱的测试结果得出,蓝色蛋白石的致色元素为Cu,在其内部呈典型平面正方形结构的[Cu~(2+)(H_2O)_4]~(2+),且Cu含量与其蓝色的体色存在一定的正相关性,即随着Cu含量增加蓝色体色更加浓艳。  相似文献   

秘鲁粉色蛋白石的物相组成及颜色成因     

钱雪雯  李净净  杨丽  徐娅芬 《岩石矿物学杂志》2024,43(3):495-502

采用X射线粉晶衍射、红外光谱仪、电子探针、激光剥蚀电感耦合等离子体质谱仪以及紫外可见光分光光度计对不同深浅的秘鲁产粉色蛋白石样品进行了物相组成及颜色成因的测试和分析。结果显示,粉色蛋白石的主要矿物组成为Opal-CT、坡缕石、石英和水,且水的类型较为丰富,包含了结晶水、结构水和沸石水。结合X射线粉晶衍射、红外光谱及电子探针分析认为粉色蛋白石的颜色与坡缕石有关,且通过XRD定量分析坡缕石的含量,认为其与颜色呈正相关。综合紫外-可见光光谱、电子探针和激光剥蚀电感耦合等离子体质谱结果分析,粉色蛋白石的颜色与坡缕石结构中的有机物醌和β类胡萝卜素及Mn²⁺有关,且Mn²⁺含量越多,颜色越深,同时提出了Fe³⁺对颜色的影响,发现Fe³⁺只出现在了深色样品中。  相似文献
