The results showed that the total amount of REE in fluorites is usually low,ranging from 0.705 to 8.785 μg/g with the chondrite-normalized REE dis-tribution patterns similar to those of the Qitianling granites in the study area,characterized by LREE-enrichment patterns with pronounced negative Eu anomalies. The fluorites vary in Sr isotopic composition within the range of 0.7083-0.7091,the values are lower than those of the granites and higher than those of the host carbonate rocks in this area. The εNd(t) values of fluorites vary between -9.4 and +10.3,revealing that both the crust-and mantle-source materials were involved in the ore-forming hydrothermal fluids. Combined with previous studies on this ore deposit,the Bailashui tin deposit is temporally and spatially closely related with granitic magmatism in this area. The hydro-thermal fluorites are the product of fluid/rock interactions between granitic magmatic hydrothermal fluid and marine carbonate rocks. The REE and F in the ore-forming fluid were derived from the granites,whereas Sr in the ore-forming fluid came mainly from the granitic magmatic hydrothermal fluid and marine carbonate rocks,although variations in Sr isotopic composition cannot be explained by a simple mixture of these two end-members. Evidence demonstrated that the ore-forming fluids are of crustal-mantle mixing origin,but that the fluids were probably in-completely homogenized and this may be caused by inhomogeneous mixing of the fluids of different sources.展开更多

The concentrations of Cd vary greatly from one type to another type of rocks in the mining district. In the host rock, Cd concentrations range from 50×10-6 to 650×10-6 with an average of 310×10-6. In primary ores, Cd concentrations range from 14×10-6 to 2800×10-6 with an average of 767×10-6. However, in oxidized ores, Cd concentrations are highest, varying within the range of 110×10-6 to 8200×10-6 , averaging 1661×10-6. It is shown that the oxidized ores are the main carrier and environmental source of Cd. Leaching test showed that Pb/Zn ores are easy to oxidize and thereafter release Cd and other harmful elements. These leached elements in the leachate may be precipitated rapidly in the order of Zn>Pb>Cd. As for the concentration distribution of Cd in the Bijiang River, it is estimated to be 15.7 μg/L Cd in water, 49.3 mg/L in suspended substances, and 203.7 mg/L in sediments. The average value of Cd in soil from the polluted area is 83.0 mg/kg. Natural weathering of Cd-rich rocks and minerals imposes a potential environmental risk on the aquatic ecosystem of the Bijiang catchment.展开更多

It inhibits the entry and replication of many viruses, which are independent of receptorusage but dependent on processes that occur in endosomes. In this study, we demonstrate that IFITM3 playsimportant roles in regulating the RNA-virus-triggered production of IFN-β in a negative-feedback manner.Overexpression of IFITM3 inhibited Sendai virus-triggered induction of IFN-β, whereas knockdown of IFITM3 hadthe opposite effect. We also showed that IFITM3 was constitutively associated with IRF3 and regulated thehomeostasis of IRF3 by mediating the autophagic degradation of IRF3. These findings suggest a novel inhibitoryfunction of IFITM3 on the RNA-virus-triggered production of type I IFNs and cellular antiviral responses.展开更多

文摘The Lianhuashan metallogenic belt in Eastern Guangdong Province(South China)is the most important Sn polymetallic district in the region,hosting many medium-sized deposits such as the Tashan,Xianshuili,and Jiangxikeng.However,the metallogenic mechanism of these deposits remains hotly debated.In this paper,two types of cassiterites(Cst1 and Cst2)have been identified in the Xianshuili and Jiangxikeng Sn deposits,which are hosted in the biotite-mylonite and garnetcordierite-muscovite blastomylonite,respectively.The euhedral Cst1(0.50–1.8 mm)coexists with biotite,feldspar,and quartz.It is platy and zoned with a mosaic structure.The subhedral to anhedral Cst2(0.02–0.35 mm)coexists with metamorphic minerals such as garnet and cordierite,and it is characterized by well-developed porosity and has no zonation.In-situ U-Pb dating of the Cst1 and Cst2 yielded ages of 149.5±1.0 Ma(MSWD=1.6,n=45)and 125.1±2.3 Ma(MSWD=4.5,n=43),respectively.Cst1 is most likely to be related to the intermediate-felsic magmatism that formed Gaojiping Group,whereas Cst2 has relatively high Ta,Nb,Fe,and W contents with obvious rare earth tetragroup effect,and may have formed by the late Early Cretaceous dynamic metamorphism.Results presented here,when combined with regional geology and geochemistry,led us to suggest that the Mesozoic intermediate-felsic volcanic rocks in the LMB are significantly enriched in Sn and F,with high Sn-polymetallic mineralization potential which likely have contributed to the volcanic-related Cst1.In the late Early Cretaceous period,due to the NW-dipping subduction of the paleo-Pacific plate,the intermediate-felsic volcanic rocks underwent dynamic metamorphism that led to Sn mobilization,migration,and precipitation in the regional ductile shear zones,and eventually generating Sn mineralization.We propose that areas beneath Xianshuili and Jiangxikeng have great potential for discovery of new Sn resources.Our findings likely offer practical importance to regional geological ore prospecting.
