嵩山夷平面研究

夷平面研究作为一个永远年轻的课题,在经过1890～1910年和1950～1970年两次研究高潮以后,目前再度成为国内外地学界研究的热点,正在酝酿着第三次研究高潮.本文在形态分析、构造分析和相关沉积分析的基础上,确定了嵩山山顶古平坦面是早第三纪晚期形成的夷平面,它可与华北以及全球陆地同期的地形面进行对比.     

古新世—始新世界线全球构造事件在沉积学中的反映

最新研究成果表明，古新世—始新世界线是全球构造事件的结果。这一事件在沉积学中表现为：岩性上从海绿石石英砂岩变化到粘土；粘土矿物组合从伊利石／蒙脱石为主到高岭石为主；大陆植物群的绝灭和迁移；钙质超微化石物种更新速度增长；底栖有孔虫绝灭和分异度降低；碳、氧同位素强烈负异常；大陆哺乳动物演化发生变化。     

Deep-water Earliest Oligocene Glacial Maximum （EOGM） in South Atlantic

The most prominent cooling event of the Earth surface during Cenozoic in the long-term transition from a non-glaciated planet, or “green-house world”, to a polar, glaciated planet, or “ice-house world”, is the Earliest Oligocene Glacial Maximum (EOGM) above the Eocene/Oligocene boundary at about 33.7 Ma. Planktonic and benthic foraminiferal oxygen and carbon isotopes, carbonate content, and coarse fraction, along with high-resolution color reflectance and magnetic susceptibility records during 35-30 Ma, from deep-water Sites 1262 and 1265, Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Leg 208 in South Atlantic, reveal the global cooling event occurring in both surface and deep oceans. The results show that the earliest Oligocene δ^18O values during 33.5-33.1 Ma represent the magnitude of continental ice sheets on east Antarctica and indicate the large decrease in both surface and deep water temperatures of worldwideoceans. The δ^13C records show the large excursion during the period of EOGM event and indicate some types of shift in global carbon reservoir, probably demonstrating the sudden increase in organic carbon burial rates and the changes in the distribution and timing of production. At the same time, lithologic composition, carbonate content, color reflectance, and coarse fraction brought about significant changes close to the Eocene/Oligocene boundary, reflecting the abrupt deepening in the carbonate compensation depth (CCD). Changes in carbonate content were revealed from the color reflectance identify periodicities associated with eccentricity of the Earth‘s orbit (100 and 400 ka), further indicating orbitally forced global climate variations in the Early Oligocene.     

珠江口盆地晚始新世浮游有孔虫的发现及其地质意义

根据首次在南海珠江口盆地最南端的ＢＹ７－１－１井中发现的晚始新世和早，中浙新世浮游有孔虫石化石组合，认为恩平组的地质时代为晚始新世－早渐新世，最低海相层位至少可以亿溯到晚始新世。     

滇西小龙潭矿区始新世岩浆岩的成因及其地质意义

云南省宾川县小龙潭矿区是一个大型斑岩型铜多金属矿床,铜矿体主要产于斑岩体及其外围接触带,矿化与斑岩体密切相关。对矿区主要侵入岩开展全岩地球化学、锆石LA-ICPMS U-Pb年代学和Hf同位素研究,获得含矿二长斑岩的~(206)Pb/~(238)U加权平均年龄为(35.98±0.16)Ma,属于始新世岩浆活动的产物。斑岩体SiO_2质量分数变化较大(64.81%~69.6%),高钾(4.36%~10.95%)和碱(Na_2O+K_2O8%),A/CNK为0.99~1.36,属高钾的碱性—过碱性、准铝质—过铝质斑岩;富集大离子亲石元素(K、Rb、Ba、Sr等)、亏损高场强元素(Ta、Nb、P、Ti等),富集轻稀土元素、亏损重稀土元素;虽被划入富碱侵入岩及A型花岗岩,但具C型埃达克岩地球化学特征。斑岩体锆石ε_(Hf)(t)值为-26.93~1.66,地壳模式年龄为1 009~4141 Ma,显示斑岩体来源于下地壳物质的部分熔融,并有幔源物质的加入。结合区域演化特征,认为小龙潭斑岩体形成于造山期后的拉张环境,陆陆碰撞挤压后应力松弛,岩浆沿断裂及次级断裂上侵,进而形成铜多金属矿床。     

“圆盘青钱柳Cyclocarya scutellata Guo”论评

圆盘青钱柳Cyclocarya scutellata Guo为郭双兴(1979)建立于海南岛长昌盆地长昌组的新种,但根据果柄、果的大小以及所谓的"翅脉"等特征,作者认为郭双兴(1979)建立的"圆盘青钱柳Cyclocarya scutellata Guo"并不成立,这类标本应是莲的果实的不同保存状态,不能归入Cyclocarya.因此,郭双兴(1979)提出的关于青钱柳属可能起源于海南岛始新世的推论也就缺乏化石依据.

Characteristics of Early Eocene radiolarian assemblases of the Sasa area, southern Tibet and their constraint on the closure history of the Tethys

Quantitative analysis of Early Eocene radiolarian assemblages discovered in the sedimentary melange （accretionary prism） of the Saga area, southern Tibet provides new information to constrain the timing of Tethys closure and the initial collision of India and Eurasia. The radiolarian species of Saga include Amphisphaera coronata （Ehrenberg）, Buryella hannae Bak ＆ Barwicz-Piskorz, Buryella clinata Foreman, Buryella tetradica Foreman, Calocycloma ampulla （Ehrenberg）, Lamptonium fabaeforme constrictum Riedel and Sanfilippo, Lamptonium pennatum Foreman, Lithomespilus coronatus Squinabol and Lamptonium （？） colymbus Foreman. The adequate and reliable correlation of these radiolarians specimens indicates that the assemblage is of Early Eocene in age. The age and depositional environment of these radiolarians testify that deep ocean basins existed between India Plate and Asia Plate during the Early Eocene. The complete closure of Tethys must have taken place at least after the Early Eocene.
