古盐度计算与古地理恢复在塔里木盆地钾盐勘探中的应用

探讨非传统方法在塔里木盆地寻找钾盐,尝试通过古盐度计算和古地理恢复来确定(漏)湖相沉积中心,同时结合元素地球化学特征分析与古地理、古盐度的耦合关系,对塔里木盆地固体钾盐矿有利发育区进行预测,认为发育深水(漏)湖相的大宛其地区岩盐体最厚,古盐度值、K+含量和澳氯系数也最高,并从深水(漏)湖→浅水(漏)湖→(漏)湖边缘呈逐...     

Spatial and temporal distribution of trace elements in Yangtze Estuary, China: Significance of diluted setting

The present study is to examine the spatial and temporal distribution of eight trace elements (Sr, Ba, B, Ga, Ni, V, Cu, and F) in various Holocene marine subfacies in the Yangtze Estuary, including its subaqueous delta by sediment borehole and vibrocore. Results demonstrate that grain size is the determinant factor in controlling the concentration of most trace elements discussed. Prodelta mud that occurs usually below the normal wave base can serve as a depository sink for trapping trace elements over the long-term time period. For example, copper concentration is 5-6 times higher than those found in the estuarine sediment. Boron, which is used to be a salinity indicator, shows a strong negative correlation with paleosalinity (using sediment phosphate method), implying desalinized water setting in the Yangtze Estuary, into which a large quantity of the Yangtze freshwater (924 × 10⁹ m³/a) has discharged. Trace element concentrations of the study area were compared with those collected from the middle and lower Yangtze River reaches, and from the east China continental shelf, including the Okinawa Trough. Result tends to show a terrigenous derivation of most geochemical components of the study area. Concentrations of strontium and barium are correlated with an increase in distance away from the estuary, rather than affected by grain size. Variation of trace elements in downcore Holocene sediment sections are fairly consistent with concentrations revealed by the modern vibrocore transect that extends from nearshore delta front, to offshore prodelta and to the delta-shelf transit zone. The overall distribution of geochemical elements discussed is capable of environmental implication to characterize the Yangtze estuarine transit between land and sea.     

东营沙四段古盐度对碳酸盐岩沉积的控制作用

以硼含量以及Sr/Ba、Sr/Ca 作为指标,计算了东营凹陷南坡沙四段各个沉积时期的古盐度值,盐度垂向上由下到上总体上变小,即湖侵初期盐度较高,湖侵后期盐度变低;平面上东部较高,北部较低,盐度分布受到古水深的控制。古盐度对不同类型的碳酸盐岩具有控制作用,碳酸盐岩所要求的古盐度范围为10.0 ‰ 35.0 ‰,其中白云岩主要分布在古盐度大于15.0 ‰的区域,石灰岩主要分布在古盐度小于20.0 ‰的区域。水体的高盐度为白云岩的形成及成岩转化提供了物质基础和介质条件,在古盐度较高的区域以白云岩沉积为主,或者将已经形成的石灰岩白云岩化;在古盐度较低的区域以石灰岩沉积为主。
