High-quality hydrocarbon source rock in the Paleogene sequence of the Ping Chau Formation, Hong Kong

Although petroleum exploration is being conducted in the Hong Kong region, high-quality hydrocarbon source rocks have never been found in this area. The Ping Chau Formation is only Mesozoic-Cenozoic sedimentary rock exposed in Hong Kong and its surrounding areas. The hydrocarbon source rock of the Ping Chau Formation is very rich in organic matters, which has an average total organic carbon (TOC) of 1.9% and chloroform bitumen ““A““ range from 0.14% to 0.24%. The total hydrocarbon content varies from 880 to 1800 ppm and the transformation ratio is specific from 5 to 9. The index of pyrolytic hydrogen is up to about 600 mgHC/gTOC. These data demonstrate the characteristics of the high-quality hydrocarbon source rock. The lamalginite is the major maceral of the source rock of the Ping Chau Formation, and geochemical characteristics also suggest that the organic materials of the source rock are of type I and type Ⅱ1, with abundant gammacerane, γ, β-caro-tane and C24 tetracyclic terpane, which indicate that it was formed in the salt water and brackish water sedimentary environment, and the source rock has evolved into a mature phase. The organic inclusions are found within calcite veins in cracks of the source rock, indicating that hydrocarbon has been generated and a secondary migration has happened. The source rock in the Ping Chau Formation is about 200-300 m thick, thus having considerable hydrocarbon potential. The discovery of the high quality hydrocarbon source rock in the Ping Chau Formation will certainly provide insight on hydrocarbon resource exploration in the South China Sea area.     

川北早志留世似包珊瑚属的两个新种

在采自四川广元和朝天一带早志留世王家湾组的材料中发现具典型包珊瑚型隔壁,发育三级隔壁的单体珊瑚新类群.该类群边缘厚结带窄,一级隔壁长,几乎可达个体中心;二、三级隔壁短,隔壁由层状组织组成,横板完整,近平列状或密集成束状,无鳞板.基本特点与似包珊瑚属(Amplexoides Wang,1947)最为接近,因而暂将该类群归入包珊瑚属,共有两个种:Amplexoides trioseptatus sp. nov., Amplexoides modaoyaensis sp. nov..根据新资料补充了似包珊瑚属的部分属征,讨论了Amplexoides Wang的主要类群、构造特点及其演化,并系统描述了两个新种.     

青藏高原东部玉树隆宝蛇绿混杂岩中早二叠世放射虫的发现及其地质意义

报道了采自青藏高原东部玉树隆宝蛇绿混杂岩硅质岩岩块中的放射虫化石.该放射虫组合包括Latentifistula crux Nazarov et Ormiston,Pseudoalbaillella scalprata scalprata Holdsworth et Jones,Pseudoalbaillella scalprata rhombothoracata Ishiga,Pseudoalbaillella sakmarensis(Kozur)等.该放射虫组合属于Pseudoalbaillella scalprata rhombothoracata带,该带可以进行全球对比,地质时代为早二叠世.放射虫动物群与可可西里、滇西等地的古特提斯放射虫组合一致,它指示了玉树早二叠世存在深水沉积盆地.

早-中元古代Columbia超级大陆研究进展

地球在过去25亿年里曾发生过几次全球性大规模碰撞造山事件（如 Grenville事件,Pan-African事件等）;地质学家由此推测大陆块自早元古代以来曾发生过周期性拼合和分离,从而导致古超级大陆的形成和裂解[1].在过去10年里（1991～2001年）,被认为由约1.0 Ga Grenville造山事件所形成的超级大陆Rodinia已成为古大陆重建的一个热点[2,3].然而,地质学家们在重建Rodinia 过程中发现,并非全部Rodinia组成陆块都是由Grenville造山带所焊接,而     

贵州早二叠世玄武岩喷发环境及其古海洋效应研究

二叠纪是中国南方火山活动较为强烈的时期之一,此时贵州省境内形成了大面积的玄武岩。文章通过岩石学、地球化学、大地构造学研究论证了早二叠世玄武岩喷发时为大陆裂谷环境,从宏观、微观岩石学特征确定了分布区东部的早二叠世玄武岩为海底喷发的产物,并详细研究了它对古海洋沉积学、古海洋地球化学的影响。

An early cretaceous<Emphasis Type="Italic">Ginkgo</Emphasis> ovule-bearing organ fossil from Liaoning,Northeast China and its evolutionary implications

Ginkgo is a very important gymnospermous genus that has only one surviving species, Ginkgo biloba L. As a so-called “living fossil“, wild Ginkgo was found only in China, but it once flourished well and had a world-wide distribution in the Mesozoic. The earliest Ginkgo has been known from the Middle Jurassic, based on ovule-bearin gorgans. In the Jurassic and Early Cretaceous, Ginkgo was one of the dominant gymnosperms in floras and possibly one of the coal-forming plants in North China. During the Early Tertiary, it reduced to a circumpolar distribution in the North Hemisphere; only a few reported from the South Hemisphere. From the Pliocene onwards, the Ginkgoales has been represented by the extant monotypic “living fossil“ Ginkgo biloba.
