叠层石菱锰矿被认为是生物成锰的证据,但少见相关报道.扬子北缘城口地区陡山沱组菱锰矿层中叠层石十分发育,但研究程度较低,其生长机制不明确,其是否是叠层石或者是附枝藻(Epiphyton)仍具有争议.从岩心描述与薄片观察出发,详细描述了研究区锰质叠层石的宏观和微观特征,根据其发育规模及形态特征将其划分为6种类型:微型分叉柱状叠层石、微型指状叠层石、指状叠层石、层状叠层石、柱状叠层石及层—柱状叠层石.研究表明,研究区柱状锰质叠层石直径一般小于l cm,具同步生长特征,与假裸枝叠层石(Pseudogymnosolenaceae)特征相似.研究区微小型、宏体型叠层石基本层常呈有立柱结构的板状,这种基本层由树形石及微型叠层石组成,而不是附枝藻.叠层石与核形石、鲕粒共生,形成于碳酸盐岩台地边缘礁滩及滩后泻湖环境.研究区锰质叠层石垂向演化从指状向层状演化为主,指示陡山沱组沉积末期水体逐渐变浅.锰质叠层石微观结构以凝块结构为主,具有丝状、球状和放射状等微生物岩显微结构.锰质叠层石记录了碳酸锰精美的原始沉积结构,暗示微生物参与了锰元素的沉积成矿作用. 相似文献

The Zhutian and Dafeng formations (Upper Cretaceous) of the Heyuan Basin in northeastern Guangdong Province, China, have produced thousands of dinosaur eggs. Macromorphological features (egg diameter, egg shape, outer surface texture, and shell thickness) of 461 eggs were analyzed using non-destructive techniques and subjected to statistical analyses in order to assess their diversity and taxonomic affinities. Three types (1, 2 and 3) of eggs were discerned based on shape and outer surface morphology. Type 1 eggs are spherical to ellipsoidal in shape and have a rough surface. Three subtypes (Type 1-A-1, 1-A-2, and 1-B) are apparent from scatter plots and cluster analyses of egg diameters and shell thickness. Type 2 eggs are elongate with linear ornamentation on the surface, and are comparable to eggs that belong to the oofamily Elongatoolithidae. Type 3 eggs are elongate with a smooth surface, and are assigned to the oofamily Prismatoolithidae. Macromorphological features of the various egg types suggest that Type 1 could have been laid by ornithischian, sauropod or therizinosaur dinosaurs, Type 2 by oviraptorids, and Type 3 by troodontids. This study represents the first comprehensive statistical analysis of macrofeatures of dinosaur eggs, and reveals taxonomic diversity in the dinosaurs that were laying eggs in the Upper Cretaceous Heyuan area heretofore unrecognized in skeletal remains. 相似文献
