Metallogenesis and hydrothermal evolution of the Tonggou Cu deposit in the Eastern Tianshan:Evidence from fluid inclusions,H-O-S isotopes,and Re-Os geochronology

The Tonggou Cu polymetallic deposit in the Bogda Orogenic Belt,Eastern Tianshan shows evidence for three stages of hydrothermal mineralization:early pyrite veins(Stage 1),polymetallic sulfide±epidote-quartz(Stage 2),and late-stage pyrite-calcite veins(Stage 3).Fluid inclusion petrography and microthermometry analyses indicate that the liquid-rich aqueous inclusions(L),vapour-rich aqueous inclusions(V),and NaCl daughter mineral-bearing three phase inclusions(S)formed during the main stage of mineralization,and that the ore fluids represent high-temperature and high-salinity H20-NaCl hydrothermal fluids that underwent boiling.Stable isotope(H,O)data indicate that the ore fluids of the Tonggou deposit were originally derived from magmatic water in Stage 2 and subsequently mixed with local meteoric water during Stage 3.Sulphur isotope compositions(6.7‰to 10.9‰)are consistent with theδ^34 S values of pyrite from the Qijiaojing Formation sandstone,indicating the primary source of the sulphur ore.Furthermore,chalcopyrite grains separated from the chalcopyrite-rich ore samples yield an isochron age of 303±12 Ma(MSWD=1.2).These results indicate that the Tonggou deposit is a transition between high-sulfidation and porphyry deposits which formed in the Late Carboniferous.It also suggests an increased likelihood for the occurrence of Cu(Au,Mo)in the Bogda Orogenic Belt,especially at locations where the Cu-Zn deposits are thicker;further deep drilling and exploration are encouraged in these areas.

Augmented Flow Simulation Based on Tight Coupling Between Video Reconstruction and Eulerian Models

Hybrid approaches such as combining video data with pure physics-based simulation have been popular in the recent decade for computer graphics. The key motivation is to clearly retain salient advantages from both data-driven method and model-centric numerical simulation, while overcoming certain difficulties of both. The Eulerian method, which has been widely employed in flow simulation, stores variables such as velocity and density on regular Cartesian grids, thereby it could be associated with （volumetric） video data on the same domain. This paper proposes a novel method for flow simulation, which is tightly coupling video-based reconstruction with physically-based simulation and making use of meaningful physical attributes during re-simulation. First, we reconstruct the density field from a single-view video. Second, we estimate the velocity field using the reconstructed density field as prior. In the iterative process, the pressure projection can be treated as a physical constraint and the results of each step are corrected by obtained velocity field in the Eulerian framework. Third, we use the reconstructed density field and velocity field to guide the Eulerian simulation with anticipated new results. Through the guidance of video data, we can produce new flows that closely match with the real scene exhibited in data acquisition. Moreover, in the multigrid Eulerian simulation, we can generate new visual effects which cannot be created from raw video acquisition, with a goal of easily producing many more visually interesting results and respecting true physical attributes at the same time. We demonstrate salient advantages of our hybrid method with a variety of animation examples.
