内蒙古磨石山沉积变质型锐钛矿矿床:一个大型新类型钛矿床的发现、勘查和研究

Moshishan Metamorphosed Sedimentary Anatase Deposit: Discovery, Exploration, and Study of a New Genetic Type Large Titanium Deposit

前人把内蒙古正蓝旗磨石山南部的羊蹄子山矿床确定为铁矿床,通过我们近几年的研究和勘查,发现了北部的磨石山新钛矿带,认为这不是一个铁矿,而是一个以锐钛矿为主的大型沉积变质型钛矿床,是钛矿床的一个新类型。矿体产于中元古代(1751Ma)片岩、变质石英(粉)砂岩和斜长角闪岩中,呈似层状、透镜状产出。富矿石具有细纹状构造,表现为以石英和锐钛矿为主的条纹互层。矿石矿物主要为锐钛矿,次有金红石和钛铁矿(赤铁矿),脉石矿物以石英为主,含一定量直闪石和黑云母(石榴子石)。锐钛矿、金红石和钛铁矿的粒度很细,为0.01～0.1mm。富矿含TiO23.14%～15.46%,平均6.91%,而贫矿的TiO2含量为1.2%～2.97%,平均1.76%。矿石含较高的Fe和V。锐钛矿和金红石的微量元素Nb和Cr的含量很低,说明矿物的源区来自变质基性岩。围岩斜长角闪岩恢复其原岩,大致相当于玄武岩、苦杆玄武岩等。岩石化学揭示其生成构造条件,为岛弧或岛弧和洋脊的过渡带。硅同位素组成研究结果,不同锐钛矿矿石、石英岩和片岩等的δ30Si值为0.1‰～-0.9‰,与海底热液喷气沉积矿床的数据相似。所有上述矿床的地质和地球化学特征表明,锐钛矿矿石和斜长角闪岩都是海底基性火山活动的产物,矿石具有化学沉积特征,后来遭到中(偏低)级区域变质作用,金红石主要形成于区域变质作用。矿床在燕山晚期(118Ma),由于花岗岩的侵位,又局部受到热液改造。

The Yantizishan deposit situated in the south part of the Moshishan was formerly referred to as an iron deposit. Based on update investigation and exploration in recent years, the authors believe that it is actually a large metamorphosed sedimentary anatasedominated deposit belonging to a new genetic type. Simultaneously, the Moshishan ore belt was discovered. Ore bodies occur in stratoid and lenticular forms in Mesoproterozoie （1751 Ma） schist, metasandstone （metasihstone）, and amphibolite. Rich ores have perthitic structure comprising chiefly interbedded quartz perthite and anatase perthite. Ore minerals are mainly anatase and subordinately rutile and ilmenite （±hematite）, while nonmetallic minerals are chiefly quartz with a certain amount of anthophyllite and biotite （±garnet）. The grain sizes of anatase, rutile and ilmenite are 0.01～0. 1 mm. Rich ores contain 3.14% to 15.46% TiO2 ,averaging 6.91%, while the lowgrade ores have TiO2 content about 1.2% to 2.97%, averaging 1.76%. The ores have relatively high Fe and V contents. According to their relatively low Nb and Cr contents in anatase and rutile, source anatase and rutile must have come from meta-mafic rocks. The protoliths of amphibolite wall rocks should be basalt and picrite-basalt. Pertochemical data suggest that the tectonic setting of these rocks belongs to an island arc or a transitional belt between the island arc and oceanic ridge. Silicon isotope study shows that δ30Si values of different anatase ores, quartzite, and schist in this deposit are 0.1‰ to -0.9‰, similar to those of marine hydrothermal exhalative sedimentary deposits. All of these geological and geochemical characteristics of the ore deposit suggest that the anatase ores and amphibolite are products of submarine basic volcanism. The ores had chemical precipitation features, but were later subjected to regional intermediate （or somewhat lower） grade metamorphism. Rutile was formed mainly in the process of this metamorphism. The ore belt locally underwent hydrothermal modification during the emplacement of Late Yanshanian granite （118 Ma）.
