Potash-rich volcanic rocks and lamprophyres in western Shandong Province: 40Ar39Ar dating and source tracing

Highly precise 40Ar39Ar dating results demonstrate that the ages of potash-rich volcanic rocks in western Shandong Province are 114.7-124.3 Ma, and that of the lamprophyres is 119.6 Ma. The potash-rich volcanic rocks have relatively high (87Sr/86Sr)i ratios ( 0.708715-0.711418)and distinctly negative εNd values ( -11.47 - -17.54), and are enriched in radiogenic lead (206Pb/204pb=17.341-17.622,207pb/204Pb=15.525-15.538, 208Pb/204pb = 37.563-37.684).Similarly, the lamprophyres also have quite low εNd values ( -11.57 - -19.64). Based on the fact that the Sr, Nd and Pb isotopic compositions of potash-rich volcanic rocks are very consistent with that of the clinopyroxene separates, and by integrating comprehensive analyses of their tectonic settings,and extensive comparisons of the Sr, Nd isotopic compositions with that of the related simultaneous rocks, it is concluded that the potash-rich volcanic rocks and lamprophyres in western Shandong Province were most possibly derived from the partial melting of enriched mantle which was caused by source contamination and metasomatism of subducted continental crustal materials.``     

山东焦家金矿田锶、铅同位素特征及其地质意义

世界上绝大多数与碱性岩浆岩 (包括碳酸岩 )有关的稀土矿床产于裂谷化环境中 ,但四川牦牛坪稀土矿床却形成于新生代造山过程中。牦牛坪是一个与碱性杂岩体密切有关的稀土矿床 ,矿化与岩浆碳酸岩直接有关。碳酸岩的同位素地球化学组成变化很小 ,2 0 6Pb/2 0 4Pb=1 8.1 6 2～ 1 8.1 94 ,2 0 7Pb/2 0 4Pb=1 5 .5 36～ 1 5 .5 6 7,2 0 8Pb/2 0 4Pb=38.2 83～ 38.390 ,87Sr/86Sr=0 .70 6 0 5～ 0 .70 6 91 ,1 4 3 Nd/1 4 4 Nd=0 .5 1 2 32 7～ 0 .5 1 2 4 36 ,与 EMI型地幔源区的同位素组成基本一致 ,表明牦牛坪稀土元素的成矿作用与深部动力学过程有关。在强烈的挤压造山过程中能够有 EMI型地幔物质上侵 ,表明进入新生代以来 ,龙门山造山带乃至整个青藏高原及周边地区的地球动力学背景不仅限于板块的水平挤压与俯冲 ,还应考虑到地幔物质及其活动过程的显著贡献。

Determination of lead isotope compositions of geological samples using femtosecond laser ablation MC-ICPMS

Lead isotopic compositions of international silicate glasses, feldspar and copper-based samples are obtained using femtosecond laser ablation multiple collector inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (fLA-MC-ICPMS). Some international glass standards for the microanalysis are applied to evaluate the method reported here. The Pb isotopic composition of these NIST glasses (SRM 610, 612, 614), USGS (BHVO-2G, BCR-2G, BIR-1G and GSD-1G) and MPI-DING glasses (GOR132-G, KL2-G, T1-G, StHs60/80-G) agree well with recommended values in 2 s error. One of 15 copper-based metals is found to have homogenized Pb isotope data and can be used as an external calibration standard and quality control sample for chalcopyrite, ancient coins, etc., to trace the genesis of metal deposit and culture exchange among different dynasties (GBW02137, ²⁰⁸Pb/²⁰⁴Pb = 37.9661 ± 0.0005 (2 s), ²⁰⁷Pb/²⁰⁴Pb = 15.5770 ± 0.0002 (2 s), ²⁰⁶Pb/²⁰⁴Pb = 17.7462 ± 0.0002 (2 s)). We also prepared a feldspar glass to serve as the external calibration standard/QC for Pb isotope analysis using fLA-MC-ICPMS.     

Potash-rich volcanic rocks and lamprophyres in western Shandong Province: 40Ar-39Ar dating and source tracing

Kinetic study of hydrocarbon generation of oil asphaltene from Lunnan area, Tabei uplift

The molecular compositions and molecular carbon isotopic compositions of gas hydrocarbons produced in the hydrocarbon generation of oil asphaltene from Lunnnan area were investigated by pyrolysis of asphaltene sealed in gold tube in a limited system. The experimental results indicated that oil asphaltene from Lunnan area had relatively high generation potential of methane. However, the molecular compositions and molecular carbon isotopic compositions of gas hydrocarbons in the hydrocarbon generation of oil asphaltene exhibited different characteristics from that of gas hydrocarbons by primary cracking of kerogen and secondary cracking of oil. Based on kinetic simulation with paleo-geothermal data of oil reservoir, the methane produced by cracking of oil asphatene was characterized by relatively light carbon isotopic compositions. This result could not explain relatively heavy carbon isotopic compositions of natural gas from Lunnan area. Pyrolysis of kerogen from source rocks under very high temperature probably made remarkable contributions to natural gas from Lunnan area.     

207Pb/206Pb determination of zircons by laser probe-inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry

Laser probe_inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LP_ICP_MS) was used to determine 207 Pb/ 206 Pb ratios in single zircon grains. A Nd∶YAG laser operating at 1 064 nm and a Fisons_VG PQII Turbo ICP_MS were employed. For the known zircons, the 207 Pb/ 206 Pb results of LP_ICP_MS are close to the thermal ionization mass spectrometry (TIMS) results. The spatial resolution of this method is 40-50 μm and the sensitivities for lead isotopes are about 300-400 cps/ppm. The precision of 207 Pb/ 206 Pb ratio is 0.3%-4% and depends on the lead concentration of the sampling pits. LP_ICP_MS provides a simple, rapid and economic method for zircon 207 Pb/ 206 Pb determination.

阿尔泰地区霍热木德克花岗岩体年代学、地球化学特征及构造意义

中阿尔泰构造带出露大面积晚三叠世花岗岩,对其进行详细研究是了解阿尔泰造山带构造演化和陆壳增生过程的重要途径。本文对霍热木德克岩体进行详细的岩石学、锆石U-Pb年代学、岩石地球化学及Sr-Nd同位素研究。霍热木德克花岗岩体主要有粗粒二长花岗岩、细粒二长花岗岩和正长花岗岩。LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb年代学研究结果表明,其结晶年龄为(222.3±1.8)Ma(MSWD=1.6),为晚三叠世岩浆活动产物。地球化学研究表明,岩石具有高SiO_2、Al_2O_3、ALK,低TiO_2、MnO、MgO、P_2O_5的特征,轻稀土富集、轻重稀土分馏明显,具有Eu的负异常(δEu=0.37~0.50),富集大离子亲石元素、相对亏损高场强元素,显示出强过铝质S型花岗岩的特征,花岗岩具有负的εNd(t)(-3.7~-2.7)和较老的二阶段模式(T2DM)年龄(1.2~1.3Ga)。综合分析认为,霍热木德克花岗岩由富含白云母和黑云母的变泥质岩经历部分熔融形成,其源区有富钙斜长石、钛铁矿的残留,为同碰撞造山阶段挤压环境下地壳加厚而发生部分熔融的产物,形成于同碰撞构造环境。     

Using kerogen FTIR parameters for determination of organic facies

FTlR spectrum data can not only be used to indicate kerogen type end maturity, but also to determine organic facies of source rock. Aliphatic chain structure indices (ACSI) and an aromatic structure index (ASI) are introduced to divide sedimentary organic facies of different source rocks into three types: swamp, swamp-lacustrine and lacustrine facies. The indices also reveal the fine difference of the organic matters, such as kerogen types, petroleum potential and nature of hydrocarbon products.

Decoupling of surface and subsurface sutures in the Dabie orogen and a continent-collisional lithospheric-wedging model：Sr-Nd-Pb isotopic evidences of Mesozoic igneous rocks in eastern China

Based on the distribution of UHPM rocks on the surface in Sulu terrane, the surface suture between the NCB and SCB should be located along the Wulian fault (see Fig. 1, S1). However, based on the aeromagnetic data of eastern China, Li[1] first indicated that the subsurface suture between the NCB and SCB in the region east of the Tan-Lu fault should be located to the east of Nanjing City (see Fig. 1, S2), which south displaced about 400 km from the surface suture. This is contradicto…     

Osmium isotopic constraints on the nature of the DUPAL anomaly from Indian mid-ocean-ridge basalts

The isotopic compositions of mid-ocean-ridge basalts (MORB) from the Indian Ocean have led to the identification of a large-scale isotopic anomaly relative to Pacific and Atlantic ocean MORB. Constraining the origin of this so-called DUPAL anomaly may lead to a better understanding of the genesis of upper-mantle heterogeneity. Previous isotopic studies have proposed recycling of ancient subcontinental lithospheric mantle or sediments with oceanic crust to be responsible for the DUPAL signature. Here we report Os, Pb, Sr and Nd isotopic compositions of Indian MORB from the Central Indian ridge, the Rodriguez triple junction and the South West Indian ridge. All measured samples have higher (187)Os/(188)Os ratios than the depleted upper-mantle value and Pb, Sr and Nd isotopic compositions that imply the involvement of at least two distinct enriched components in the Indian upper-mantle. Using isotopic and geodynamical arguments, we reject both subcontinental lithospheric mantle and recycled sediments with oceanic crust as the cause of the DUPAL anomaly. Instead, we argue that delamination of lower continental crust may explain the DUPAL isotopic signature of Indian MORB.     

The Earth's missing lead may not be in the core

Relative to the CI chondrite class of meteorites (widely thought to be the 'building blocks' of the terrestrial planets), the Earth is depleted in volatile elements. For most elements this depletion is thought to be a solar nebular signature, as chondrites show depletions qualitatively similar to that of the Earth. On the other hand, as lead is a volatile element, some Pb may also have been lost after accretion. The unique (206)Pb/(204)Pb and (207)Pb/(204)Pb ratios of the Earth's mantle suggest that some lead was lost about 50 to 130 Myr after Solar System formation. This has commonly been explained by lead lost via the segregation of a sulphide melt to the Earth's core, which assumes that lead has an affinity towards sulphide. Some models, however, have reconciled the Earth's lead deficit with volatilization. Whichever model is preferred, the broad coincidence of U-Pb model ages with the age of the Moon suggests that lead loss may be related to the Moon-forming impact. Here we report partitioning experiments in metal-sulphide-silicate systems. We show that lead is neither siderophile nor chalcophile enough to explain the high U/Pb ratio of the Earth's mantle as being a result of lead pumping to the core. The Earth may have accreted from initially volatile-depleted material, some lead may have been lost to degassing following the Moon-forming giant impact, or a hidden reservoir exists in the deep mantle with lead isotope compositions complementary to upper-mantle values; it is unlikely though that the missing lead resides in the core.
