Compositional data for >400 pumice clasts, organized accordingto eruptive sequence, crystal content, and texture, providenew perspectives on eruption and pre-eruptive evolution of the>600 km³ of zoned rhyolitic magma ejected as the Bishop Tuffduring formation of Long Valley caldera. Proportions and compositionsof different pumice types are given for each ignimbrite packageand for the intercalated plinian pumice-fall layers that eruptedsynchronously. Although withdrawal of the zoned magma was lesssystematic than previously realized, the overall sequence displaystrends toward greater proportions of less evolved pumice, morecrystals (0·5–24 wt %), and higher FeTi-oxide temperatures(714–818°C). No significant hiatus took place duringthe 6 day eruption of the Bishop Tuff, nearly all of which issuedfrom an integrated, zoned, unitary reservoir. Shortly beforeeruption, however, the zoned melt-dominant portion of the chamberwas invaded by batches of disparate lower-silica rhyolite magma,poorer in crystals than most of the resident magma but slightlyhotter and richer in Ba, Sr, and Ti. Interaction with residentmagma at the deepest levels tapped promoted growth of Ti-richrims on quartz, Ba-rich rims on sanidine, and entrapment ofnear-rim melt inclusions relatively enriched in Ba and CO₂.Varied amounts of mingling, even in higher parts of the chamber,led to the dark gray and swirly crystal-poor pumices sparselypresent in all ash-flow packages. As shown by FeTi-oxide geothermometry,the zoned rhyolitic chamber was hottest where crystal-richest,rendering any model of solidification fronts at the walls orroof unlikely. The main compositional gradient (75–195ppm Rb; 0·8–2·2 ppm Ta; 71–154 ppmZr; 0·40–1·73% FeO*) existed in the melt,prior to crystallization of the phenocryst suite observed, whichincluded zircon as much as 100 kyr older than the eruption.The compositions of crystals, though themselves largely unzoned,generally reflect magma temperature and the bulk compositionalgradient, implying both that few crystals settled or were transportedfar and that the observed crystals contributed little to establishingthat gradient. Upward increases in aqueous gas and dissolvedwater, combined with the adiabatic gradient (for the 5 km depthrange tapped) and the roofward decline in liquidus temperatureof the zoned melt, prevented significant crystallization againstthe roof, consistent with dominance of crystal-poor magma earlyin the eruption and lack of any roof-rind fragments among theBishop ejecta, before or after onset of caldera collapse. Amodel of secular incremental zoning is advanced wherein numerousbatches of crystal-poor melt were released from a mush zone(many kilometers thick) that floored the accumulating rhyoliticmelt-rich body. Each batch rose to its own appropriate levelin the melt-buoyancy gradient, which was self-sustaining againstwholesale convective re-homogenization, while the thick mushzone below buffered it against disruption by the deeper (non-rhyolitic)recharge that augmented the mush zone and thermally sustainedthe whole magma chamber. Crystal–melt fractionation wasthe dominant zoning process, but it took place not principallyin the shallow melt-rich body but mostly in the pluton-scalemush zone before and during batchwise melt extraction.

湘南铜山岭矽卡岩铜铅锌矿床产于铜山岭岩体北东缘隐伏接触带及其外围地层中,在成因上与铜山岭花岗闪长斑岩密切相关。铜山岭铜铅锌矿床具有独特的成矿分带,从岩体向外依次发育近端内矽卡岩、近端外矽卡岩、硫化物-石英脉和远端矽卡岩矿体。根据穿切关系、交代结构和矿物组合等地质特征可以把铜山岭铜铅锌矿床划分为4个矿化蚀变阶段,从早到晚依次为进变质矽卡岩、退变质矽卡岩、石英-硫化物和碳酸盐阶段,其中石英-硫化物阶段为主成矿阶段。闪锌矿成分压力计研究表明,近端内矽卡岩型团块状硫化物矿石中闪锌矿的形成压力为(3.1±1.0)×108Pa,对应的成矿深度为6～12 km,相当于中—上地壳水平,说明铜山岭铜铅锌矿床形成于较大深度。近端内矽卡岩、近端外矽卡岩和远端矽卡岩中都存在两阶段绿泥石。绿泥石成分温度计研究表明,3类矽卡岩中退变质矽卡岩阶段绿泥石的形成温度分别为345～388℃、296～376℃和296～338℃,代表各类矽卡岩形成温度的下限;石英-硫化物阶段绿泥石的形成温度分别为270～318℃、209～238℃和200～223℃,代表各类矽卡岩矿体的成矿温度。3类矽卡岩的绿泥石温度表现出逐步降低的趋势,指...  相似文献   

基于高光谱数据的甘肃花西山金矿蚀变特征分析与找矿预测应用     

赵佳琪 《地质与勘探》2023,59(1):122-133

利用地物光谱仪识别具有光谱诊断性吸收特征的蚀变矿物,并分析其空间分布及组合特征,是后续利用航空、航天高光谱遥感开展找矿预测的重要理论依据。本文以位于甘肃柳园地区花牛山矿集区的花西山金矿床为例,首先利用FieldSpecPro FR便携式光谱仪对采集样品进行光谱测量,通过The Spectral Geologist 8软件对获得的光谱数据进行分析解译,揭示了与矿化关系密切的地表蚀变矿物为绢云母（白云母和多硅白云母）+黄钾铁矾+赤铁矿+针铁矿,外围蚀变矿物主要为绢云母（钠云母）+绿帘石+绿泥石+蒙脱石+水铝石。基于这一认识,对矿区及周边开展CASI/SASI航空高光谱遥感蚀变矿物信息提取,综合地表及航空高光谱解译信息,建立了花西山式金矿床的高光谱遥感找矿预测模型,并基于该找矿预测模型在外围圈定了预测区1处,经野外查证,预测区内发现有明显金异常。研究结果表明,在分析和总结调查区成矿地质背景和蚀变特征的基础上,结合高光谱遥感信息可快速地、更有针对性地发现成矿有利区段,为矿产勘查部署提供重要参考资料。  相似文献   

河南省栾川县红庄-元岭金矿床原生晕轴向分带特征及深部成矿远景评价     

周顶 《地质与勘探》2015,51(6):1126-1137

红庄-元岭金矿床位于豫西熊耳山金及多金属成矿带南亚带上,是近年来发现的中型金矿床。通过对该矿床地质特征、成晕元素共生组合及分带特征的研究,认为该区原生晕分带序列整体为正常序列,49号勘探线中存在前缘晕元素与近矿晕元素叠加共存的现象。地球化学参数反映了该区成矿具多期多阶段的特点,部分参数在深部有向高值转折的趋势,Au及近矿晕元素异常规模向深部具有增大趋势,表明深部有一定找矿潜力。结合原生晕轴向序列特征及地球化学参数、异常规模随深度的变化特征,认为浅部找矿的重点应放在海拔约400m以上,攻深找盲的重点应放在海拔300m以下。  相似文献

Topographic zonation of infiltration in the hilly loess region,north china     

Gang Li  Shiu Hung Luk  Qiang Guo Cai 《水文研究》1995,9(2):227-235

Field infiltration tests using portable rainfall infiltrometers were conducted in the Wangjiagou experimental basin in the hilly loess region of north China. Based on data collected at 27 sites, a topographic zonation of infiltration characteristics was observed. The average steady infiltration rate and the average ponding time decreased from the hilltop to the hillslope and further decreased to the gully wall. Such a zonation is closely related to the variations of topography, soil and land use conditions in the study area. A general infiltration model is proposed. Collected field data are used to establish the applicability of the proposed model in the study area.  相似文献   

河南西峡北部燕山期岩浆热液型矿床及其侧向分带     

宋峰 《河南国土资源》1997,(1)

西峡县北部有一巨大的与燕山期岩浆活动有关的热液活动成矿带。从岩浆活动中心向南的成矿可依次分为：内带—中带—外带，其对应主成矿元素为：Ｍｏ、Ｗ－Ａｕ、Ｐｂ、Ａｇ－Ａｕ、Ｓｂ、Ａｓ，中带和外带为金的重要成矿带。矿带与燕山期侵入体空间依存关系密切，成生时代一致。分带为由岩浆活动中心向外热液温度的降低及扩散距离的远近所造成，它可存在于地质体不同规模的尺度上，在东秦岭较为普遍。研究这种分带，对矿产的预测与评价将会有较大的帮助  相似文献   

Intertidal macroalgae and macroinvertebrates: Seasonal and spatial abundance patterns along an estuarine gradient     

Morgan N. Hardwick-Witman  Arthur C. Mathieson 《Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science》1983,16(2):113-129

Quantitative sampling of the dominant intertidal epibiota was conducted seasonally along an estuarine gradient within the Great Bay Estuary System, New Hampshire, U.S.A. The abundance and zonation of the dominant macroorganisms varied with distance into the estuary. Replacement of marine by estuarine species occurred, and overall abundance and species richness decreased along the estuarine gradient. Zonation patterns within the inner estuary were primarily allied with substrata. Maximum abundance of invertebrates occurred in the mid-intertidal zone where a dense fucoid canopy provided habitat heterogeneity. Densities of epibiotic organisms decreased toward low water, especially in the inner estuary where hard substratum was limiting. Settlement blocks, introduced into the low intertidal zone, were dominated by barnacles and fucoid algae; after 16 months, the species composition on the settlement blocks resembled the adjacent community. Semibalanus balanoides settled in the spring, while Fucus vesiculosus var. spiralis exhibited low but constant settlement. Despite the physical rigors of the estuarine environment, only Semibalanus balanoides, Ilyanassa obsoleta and Spartina alterniflora showed significant seasonal changes in density. Thus, there are predictable and persistent epibiotic species assemblages within the intertidal zone of the Great Bay Estuary System.  相似文献
