摘要
Ten representative limestone samples [six from Wangshan Formation(WL) and the other four from Gouhou Formation(GL)] were collected from outcrops of the northern Anhui Province, and REE concentrations in limestone were measured by ICP-MS. The depositional environment and source of the REE were analyzed, and the results implys that the total REE of samples are low compared with the recent marine sediments, which range from 9.61 to 54.18 mg/kg and an average of 22.93 mg/kg. The PAAS-normalized REE+Y patterns of limestone are characterized by(1) light REE depletion in WL and enrichment in GL with the values of(Nd/Yb)SN ranging form 0.65 to 0.91 and 1.12 to 1.46, respectively;(2) light negative Ce anomaly(0.85–1.02) and positive La anomaly(0.92–1.27); and(3) both Eu(0.91–1.23) and Y(1.42–2.38) expressing light positive anomaly. The character indicated that the depositional environment was oxygenated, with infection by the hydrothermal activity and contamination of detritus.
Ten representative limestone samples [six from Wangshan Formation （WL） and the other four from Gou- hou Formation （GL）] were collected from outcrops of the northern Anhui Province, and REE concentrations in lime- stone were measured by ICP-MS. The depositional environment and source of the REE were analyzed, and the re- sults implys that the total REE of samples are low compared with the recent marine sediments, which range from 9.61 to 54.18 mg/kg and an average of 22.93 mg/kg. The PAAS-normalized REE＋Y patterns of limestone are char- acterized by （1） light REE depletion in WL and enrichment in GL with the values of （Nd/Yb）sN ranging form 0.65 to 0.91 and 1.12 to 1.46, respectively; （2） light negative Ce anomaly （0.85-1.02） and positive La anomaly （0.92-1.27）; and （3） both Eu （0.91-1.23） and Y （1.42-2.38） expressing light positive anomaly.
