The present study introduces the carbonatite in the northern part of the Korean Peninsula for the first time.Recent exploration and development of the phosphorus-bearing carbonate rocks in the area have accumulated new geological data which gave us an opportunity to study origin of the carbonate rocks.We conducted geological survey,geochemical analyses of trace elements and rare earth elements,and carbon and oxygen isotope analyses for the carbonatites from Ssangryong,Pungnyon,Yongyu and Puhung districts of the northern part of the Korean Peninsula.This research confirms that the phosphorus-bearing carbonate rocks are carbonatite originating from the mantle.The studied carbonatites are distributed at the junctions of ring and linear structures or around their margins and contain a greater amount of REEs,Y,and Sr than carbonate rocks.The carbonatites in Yongyu and Puhung area show evidence that they were formed from mantle plume generated at the lower mantle and display similar fractionation characteristics to carbonatites in Barrado Itapirapua in Brazil and Kalkfeld and Ondurakorume in Namibia.REE patterns of the carbonatites are typical of carbonatites and the carbon and oxygen isotope analyses demonstrate that the carbonatites were originated from mantle.The carbonatites from the northern part of the Korean Peninsula have a great potential for sources of REE,Y,PGE(platinum group elements),copper,and gold.  相似文献   

岩溶水系统对大气CO2的潜在影响——基于热力学的研究

认识不同条件下岩溶水释放或吸收CO2的反应过程是研究碳酸盐岩对碳循环响应的前提和基础。本文从吉布斯自由能的热力学原理出发,对全球不同岩溶地区162组岩溶水(河水、溪水、湖水等)进行了热力学研究,结果显示:1)河水、溪水、湖水和洞穴滴水等岩溶水所处的环境因方解石矿物沉积而释放CO2成为大气CO2一个潜在的源;2)地下水在所处的环境下由于方解石的溶解而吸收CO2,成为大气CO2一个潜在的汇;3)少数出露点的泉水所处的环境既可发生方解石的溶解而吸收CO2,成为大气CO2的潜在汇,也可发生方解石的沉积而释放CO2,成为大气CO2的潜在源;4)在洪水期,泉水的水化学特征变化并未导致对大气CO2潜在贡献在源汇之间的跨跃性转变。162组岩溶水数据中,所有河水与溪水皆无一例外地在释放CO2。结果表明,从吉布斯自由能的热力学原理出发,研究岩溶水系统对大气CO2潜在源汇的贡献,没有条件约束,是一种较好的途径。  相似文献   

Columbitization of fluorcalciopyrochlore by hydrothermalism at the Saint-Honoré alkaline complex,Québec (Canada): New insights on halite in carbonatites     

《Ore Geology Reviews》2017

Niobium (Nb) in carbonatite is mainly hosted in fluorcalciopyrochlore and columbite-(Fe). Information related to Nb petrogenesis is useful for understanding the processes related to Nb mineralization and carbonatite evolution. The Saint-Honoré, Quebec, alkaline complex offers a rare opportunity for studying these processes as the complex is not affected by post-emplacement deformation, metamorphism nor weathering. Columbite-(Fe) is shown to be an alteration product of fluorcalciopyrochlore (columbitization). Columbitization is characterized by the leaching of Na and F from the A- and Y-sites of the pyrochlore crystal structure. As alteration increases, Fe and Mn are slowly introduced while Ca is simultaneously leached. Leached Ca and F then crystallize as inclusions of calcite and fluorite within the columbite-(Fe). A-site cations and vacancies in the crystal structure of fresh and altered pyrochlores demonstrate that pyrochlore alteration is hydrothermal in origin. Moreover, halite is a ubiquitous mineral in the Saint-Honoré alkaline complex. Petrographic evidence shows that halite forms in weakly altered pyrochlores, suggesting halite has a secondary origin. As alteration increases, halite is expelled by the hydrothermal fluid and is carried farther into the complex, filling factures throughout the carbonatite. The hydrothermal hypothesis is strengthened by significant enrichments in Cl and HREEs in columbite-(Fe). Chlorine is most likely introduced by a hydrothermal fluid that increases the solubility of REEs.  相似文献   

Change in carbonate budget and composition during subduction below metal saturation boundary     

《地学前缘(英文版)》2023,14(1):101463

It is generally accepted that carbonates can be subducted to the mantle depths, where they are reduced with iron metal to produce a diamond. In this work, we found that this is not always the case. The mantle carbonates from inclusions in diamonds show a wide range of cation compositions (Mg, Fe, Ca, Na, and K). Here we studied the reaction kinetics of these carbonates with iron metal at 6–6.5 GPa and 1000–1500 °C. We found that the reduction of carbonate with Fe produces C-bearing species (Fe, Fe-C melt, Fe₃C, Fe₇C₃, C) and wüstite containing Na₂O, CaO, and MgO. The reaction rate constants (k = Δx²/2t) are log-linear relative to 1/T and their temperature dependences are determined to bek_MgCO3 (m²/s) = 4.37 × 10^?3 exp [?251 (kJ/mol)/RT]k_CaMg(CO3)2 (m²/s) = 1.48 × 10^?3 exp [?264 (kJ/mol)/RT]k_CaCO3 (m²/s) = 3.06 × 10^?5 exp [?245 (kJ/mol)/RT] andk_Na2CO3 (m²/s) = 1.88 × 10^?10 exp [?155 (kJ/mol)/RT].According to obtained results at least, 45–70 vol% of carbonates preserve during subduction down to the 660-km discontinuity if no melting occurs. The slab stagnation and warming, subsequent carbonate melting, and infiltration into the mantle saturated with iron metal are accompanied by a reduction of carbonate melt with Fe. The established sequence of reactivity of carbonates: FeCO₃ ≥ MgCO₃ > CaMg(CO₃)₂ > CaCO₃ ? Na₂CO₃, where K₂CO₃ does not react at all with iron metal, implies that during reduction carbonate melt with Fe evolves toward alkali-rich. The above conclusions are consistent with the findings of carbonates in inclusions in diamonds from the lower mantle and high concentrations of alkalis, particularly K, in mantle carbonatite melts entrapped by diamonds from kimberlites and placers worldwide.  相似文献   

The Catalão I niobium deposit, central Brazil: Resources, geology and pyrochlore chemistry     

Pedro Filipe de Oliveira Cordeiro  José Affonso Brod  Matheus Palmieri  Claudinei Gouveia de Oliveira  Elisa Soares Rocha Barbosa  Roberto Ventura Santos  José Carlos Gaspar  Luis Carlos Assis 《Ore Geology Reviews》2011,41(1):112-121

The Catalão I alkaline–carbonatite–phoscorite complex contains both fresh rock and residual (weathering-related) niobium mineralization. The fresh rock niobium deposit consists of two plug-shaped orebodies named Mine II and East Area, respectively emplaced in carbonatite and phlogopitite. Together, these orebodies contain 29 Mt at 1.22 wt.% Nb₂O₅ (measured and indicated). In closer detail, the orebodies consist of dike swarms of pyrochlore-bearing, olivine-free phoscorite-series rocks (nelsonite) that can be either apatite-rich (P2 unit) or magnetite-rich (P3 unit). Dolomite carbonatite (DC) is intimately related with nelsonite. Natropyrochlore and calciopyrochlore are the most abundant niobium phases in the fresh rock deposit. Pyrochlore supergroup chemistry shows a compositional trend from Ca–Na dominant pyrochlores toward Ba-enriched kenopyrochlore in fresh rock and the dominance of Ba-rich kenopyrochlore in the residual deposit. Carbonates associated with Ba-, Sr-enriched pyrochlore show higher δ¹⁸O_SMOW than expected for carbonates crystallizing from mantle-derived magmas. We interpret both the δ¹⁸O_SMOW and pyrochlore chemistry variations from the original composition as evidence of interaction with low-temperature fluids which, albeit not responsible for the mineralization, modified its magmatic isotopic features. The origin of the Catalão I niobium deposit is related to carbonatite magmatism but the process that generated such niobium-rich rocks is still undetermined and might be related to crystal accumulation and/or emplacement of a phosphate–iron-oxide magma.  相似文献   

Comparison of petrogenetic signatures between mantle-derived alkali silicate intrusives with and without associated carbonatite, Namibia     

B. Bühn  R. B. Trumbull 《Lithos》2003,66(3-4):201-221

We compare the petrogenetic and chemical signatures of two alkali silicate suites from the Cretaceous Damaraland igneous province (Namibia), one with and one without associated carbonatite, in order to explore their differences in terms of magma source and evolution. The Etaneno complex occurs in close spatial proximity to the Kalkfeld bimodal carbonatite–alkali silicate complex, and is dominated by nepheline (ne)-monzosyenites and ne-bearing alkali feldspar syenites. The Etaneno samples have isotopic compositions of ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr(i)=0.70462–0.70508 and Nd=−0.5 to −1.5, with the highest ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr(i) and lowest Nd values observed in evolved samples. The magma differentiated via olivine, feldspar, clinopyroxene, and nepheline (ne) fractionation in a F-rich system, which fractionated Zr from Hf, and Y from Ho. Partly glassy, recrystallized inclusions in some samples are less evolved than their host rocks and contain a cumulate component (nepheline, plagioclase). The Kalkfeld ne-foidites (ijolites) and ne-syenites have ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr(i)=0.70285–0.70592 and Nd=0.5 to 1.1. The isotope ratios show no consistent variation with rock composition, and they are in the same range as the associated carbonatites. The Kalkfeld silicate magma fractionated nepheline and alkali-feldspar in a CO₂-dominated, F- and Ca-poor system. As a result, the rocks display some major and trace element trends distinctly different from those of the Etaneno samples.

We suggest that the Etaneno and the Kalkfeld magmas represent different melt fractions of a heterogeneous mantle source, resulting in different compositions especially with respect to CO₂ contents of the primitive, parental magmas. In this scenario, the carbonated alkali silicate Kalkfeld parental melt contained a critical CO₂ concentration and underwent liquid separation of carbonate and silicate melt fractions at crustal depths. The resulting silicate melt fraction experienced a very different mode of differentiation than the carbonate-poor Etaneno parental magma. Thus, the Kalkfeld rocks are depleted in Ca and other divalent cations, as well as F, rare-earth elements (REE), Ba, and P relative to the Etaneno syenites. We interpret these differences to reflect the partitioning of these elements into the carbonate melt fraction during immiscible separation.  相似文献   

四川冕宁包子山稀土矿床富Sr碳酸岩的发现及意义

全球范围内出露的碳酸岩大多为钙质、镁质、铁质碳酸岩,少量为钠质和硅质碳酸岩,极少有富Sr碳酸岩的报道,其岩石成因、资源意义及对碳酸岩岩浆演化的指示意义尚不清楚。本次在四川省牦牛坪稀土矿区南部包子山稀土矿床的露天采坑中发现了超级富Sr的碳酸岩,其呈不规则的脉状侵入到构造角砾岩中。岩石呈紫色-淡紫色,微晶-斑状结构,斑晶主要为萤石,基质主要为菱锶矿、方解石、氟碳铈矿、氟碳钙铈矿、金云母、重晶石并含少量的金属硫化物和氧化物。全岩的微量元素分析表明,其稀土元素总量(∑REE)达3.5%～6.1%,Sr含量达19.0%～27.7%,已超过稀土矿床和锶矿床的工业品位要求。岩石中的中、重稀土元素含量占稀土元素总量的1.14%～1.77%,一些高价值稀土元素含量较高,如Pr(939×10~(-6)～1399×10~(-6))、Nd(2783×10~(-6)～3937×10~(-6))、Gd(237×10~(-6)～320×10~(-6)),因此除轻稀土元素外,中、重稀土和锶元素也具有重要的资源意义。岩石强烈富集REE、Sr、Ba,而明显亏损P、Nb、Ta、Zr、Hf元素,可能与岩浆演化过程中锆石和其它基性矿物的结晶分离有关。全岩的Sr-Nd同位素组成与牦牛坪、里庄稀土矿床的碳酸岩相似,表明它们为同源岩浆产物。笔者认为,富Sr的碳酸岩代表了碳酸岩岩浆演化晚期的产物,REE、Sr、Ba、F和S元素均在岩浆演化晚期的碳酸岩中高度富集。碳酸岩岩浆超浅成侵位至构造角砾岩中,并与下渗的大气水相遇导致岩浆的淬冷和微晶-斑状结构的形成。早期基性矿物(如霓辉石、黑云母)及碳酸盐矿物(如方解石、白云石等)的结晶分离是造成晚期碳酸岩中稀土元素富集的重要原因。富Sr碳酸岩中石英斑晶的发现和其较低的SiO_2含量表明碳酸岩岩浆演化晚期可能是硅饱和的,且这种岩浆具有很低的SiO_2溶解能力。以菱锶矿(体积分数 50%)为主要碳酸盐矿物的稀土碳酸岩可能代表了一种新的碳酸岩类型,明显不同于已知的钙质、镁质、铁质和钠质碳酸岩。  相似文献

白云鄂博地区发育大量的火成碳酸岩脉。按照矿物组成,碳酸岩脉可分为白云石型、白云石-方解石共存型和方解石型。野外穿插关系表明,白云石型碳酸岩脉形成得早,而方解石型碳酸岩脉形成得晚。白云鄂博地区的碳酸岩浆存在由白云石型到共存型再到方解石型的先后结晶顺序和演化趋势。碳酸岩脉的主量、稀土和微量元素组成特征表明,随着碳酸岩脉中方解石矿物组分的增加,轻稀土元素的含量呈明显富集趋势,而长期的结晶分异作用正是稀土元素,尤其是轻稀土元素在晚期岩浆中强烈富集的内在机制。  相似文献

大多数幔源硅酸盐岩浆都含少量碳酸盐岩浆,这些少量的碳酸盐岩浆在地幔演化中起了非同寻常的作用。本文报道了发现于汉诺坝、阳原地区新生代玄武岩中鲜见的火成碳酸岩。碳酸岩脉贯穿于玄武岩及其捕虏体橄榄岩,并导致橄榄岩强烈的碳酸盐化现象。碳酸岩脉主要由方解石组成(90%以上),岩石类型为方解石碳酸岩,含少量被裹挟的地幔橄榄石、斜方辉石、单斜辉石和尖晶石等矿物。碳酸岩化橄榄岩由原先的黄、绿色变为紫褐色,灰白色网状碳酸岩细脉穿插其中。碳酸岩脉和碳酸盐化橄榄岩的全岩稀土含量很低(∑REE=8.7×10-6～13.7×10-6),球粒陨石标准化REE模式呈LREE略微富集(～10×球粒陨石)分布模式,微量元素也只显示轻微富集(数倍于原始地幔),它们的δ13C均为负值(-11.2‰～-12.3‰),δ18O均为正值(22.0‰～22.6‰)。碳酸岩的Sr、Nd、Pb同位素组成均显示富集(87Sr/86Sr=0.7078～0.7079,143Nd/144Nd=0.5129,206Pb/204Pb=18.0,207Pb/204Pb=15.5,208Pb/204Pb=38.0)。由于碳酸盐岩浆喷出地表后易于风化,导致REE、微量元素和同位素组成明显偏离原生火成碳酸岩。但从张北少数新鲜碳酸岩所具有的原生火成碳酸岩的C、O同位素组成(δ13C=-5.7‰～-7.3‰,δ18O=8.5‰～10.1‰)特征,以及接沙坝碳酸岩的正εNd(5.3～5.5)为亏损地幔的特征,表明汉诺坝碳酸岩与玄武岩的同源性——它们都来自地幔。  相似文献

以鲁西雪野和八陡碳酸岩中的磷灰石为对象,运用EMPA和LA-ICP-MS技术,分别测定了它们的主量与微量元素组成,并据此讨论了它们的成岩意义.研究结果表明,这些磷灰石富F(=1.07%～2.74%)贫Cl(＜0.04%),种属为羟氟磷灰石或氟羟磷灰石.微量元素组成上富Sr、Th、U、Pb和轻稀土,是全岩中上述元素的主要载体之一.磷灰石的Sr、F含量与∑REE及LREE/HREE比值均表现出较明显的正相关性,其富Sr、贫Y和富轻稀土等特点与世界典型碳酸岩中的磷灰石相似,但它们具有更高的Sr/Y和Th/U比值,Sr、Ce、Th、Y含量接近地幔中由交代作用形成的磷灰石,说明其寄主碳酸岩岩浆源区应为遭受过流体交代作用的富集地幔.这些磷灰石的(La/Nd)_N比值＞1,(La/Yb)_N比值多数在100以上,与世界其他地区典型碳酸岩中的磷灰石相比铕负异常相对更明显,表明其寄主碳酸岩浆经历一定程度的分异演化.雪野较八陡碳酸岩中磷灰石含更高的F、Sr和∑REE含量及(La/Yb)_N比值,说明其寄主岩浆的演化程度更高.  相似文献
