贵州镇宁乐纪泥盆系重晶石矿热水沉积特征

Hydrothermal Venting-Flowing Sedimentation Characteristics of Devonian Barite Deposits from Leji,Zhenning County,Guizhou Province

贵州镇宁乐纪泥盆系重晶石矿床地质储量3 302万t,属大型矿床类型。通过对矿床沉积结构、构造特征研究发现,矿床(体)中分布:纹层状构造、条带状构造、角砾状构造、碎屑状构造、块状构造等,它们与天柱—大河边重晶石矿、广西古潭热水沉积重晶石岩及北秦岭二郎坪群热水沉积重晶石岩类似,海底热水喷流形成的热水喷流通道相、单一热水沉积岩相及热水混合同生沉积相在镇宁重晶石矿层中广泛分布,共同构成了热水浊流沉积相,这与秦岭泥盆系热水沉积岩(矿)类似,矿层沉积结构、构造及岩相特征很好的记录了海底热水喷流、演化的信息,沉积韵律特征说明了热水喷流由弱—强—弱的变化过程。海底热水喷流沉积形成的镇宁重晶石矿中热水沉积结构、构造及热水沉积岩相发育,是研究古热水喷流沉积成岩、成矿、划分热水沉积岩相的理想场所。

The Devonian barite deposits located in Zhenning County,Guizhou Province have proved reserves of 33.02×106 t,belonging to large-scale ore deposits.Research on sedimentation structures and tectonic characteristics related to the barite deposits reveal the coexistence of a variety of structures like laminar structures,barite-banded structure,brecciated structure,barite-fragmental structure and massive structure,etc.,which are similar to those of the Tianzhu-Dahebian barite deposit,the hydrothermal barite rocks of Gutan in Guangxi Province and the hydrothermal water sedimentary barite rocks of Erlangping Group from north Qinling Mountains.Several types of sedimentary characteristics,such as hydrothermal venting channel phases formed in submarine hydrothermal venting,unitary hydrothermal lithofacies and hydrothermally mixed synsedimentary phases,were identified widely in barite orebeds in Zhenning,Guizhou.Similar to Devonian hydrothermal sedimentary rocks（deposits） from Qinling,those sedimentary phases and lithofacies features found in Zhenning characterize a hydrothermal turbidity current sedimentation phase.Sedimentary structures,constructions and lithofacies features of the orebed record well the information of submarine hydrothermal venting and its evolution,the sedimentation rhythm characteristics reveal the intensity of hydrothermal venting-flowing was weak-strong-weak.Hence,barite deposits in Zhenning were formed in submarine hydrothermal venting sedimentation,and the hydrothermal sedimentary structures,constructions and hydrothermal lithofacies features make them ideal places for research on ancient hydrothermal venting diagenesis,metallogenesis and hydrothermal lithofacies categorization.
