The six sections are along north-south and west-east transects respectively. The results show that the spatial distribution of Rb/Sr is characterized by a remarkable increase from north to south while Rb/Sr ratio changes little from west to east, whose latitude indicates shift of summer monsoon intensity. A regression equation between Rb/Sr ratios and mean annual pre-cipitation (MAP) has been constructed through statistical analysis for the modern surface soils. Paleorainfall during the last 130 ka is estimated for the six sections based on the regression equa-tion. It is evident that precipitation increased remarkably during marine isotope stages 3 and 5, exhibiting the high and similar gradients of variation with latitude. This demonstrates that the envi-ronmental effect is more prominent in the south of the Loess Plateau than in the north during the dominance of summer monsoon.展开更多

Field geology and geochronology indicate that the porphyry mineralization was closely related to the Early Cretaceous intermediate-felsic intrusions(ca. 123–120 Ma). Various epithermal ore and gangue mineral types were discovered in the middle-shallow part of the orebody, indicating the presence of epithermal mineralization at Tiegelongnan. Potassic, propylitic, phyllic and advanced argillic alteration zones were identified. ^(40)Ar/^(39)Ar dating of hydrothermal biotite(potassic zone), sericite(phyllic zone), and alunite(advanced argillic zone) in/around the ore-bearing granodiorite porphyry yielded 121.1±0.6 Ma(1σ), 120.8±0.7 Ma(1σ) and 117.9±1.6 Ma(1σ), respectively. Five hydrothermal mineralization stages were identified, of which the Stage IV pyrite was Rb-Sr dated to be 117.5±1.8 Ma(2σ), representing the end of epithermal mineralization. Field geology and geochronology suggest that both the epithermal and porphyry mineralization belong to the same magmatic-hydrothermal system. The Tiegelongnan super-large Cu-(Au) deposit may have undergone a prolonged magmatichydrothermal evolution, with the major mineralization event occurring at ca.120–117Ma.展开更多

Conditions of 1600 °C for 1 min and 1400 °C for 1 min were adopted for fusing intrusive rocks and extrusive rocks, respectively. The rapid acid digestion technique is superior in digestion time compared with high-pressure PTFE bomb method. The procedural blanks of the method were also lower than that flux fusion. Replicate analyses of international certified reference materials(CRMs) indicate that isotopic ratios of ^(176)Hf/^(177)Hf,^(87)Sr/^(86)Sr and^(143)Nd/^(144)Nd agree well with previously published data. The external reproducibility(2 SD, n = 5) of ten CRMs are ±0.000030 for87 Sr/86 Sr,±0.000030 for ^(143)Nd/^(144)Nd, and ±0.000018 for ^(176)Hf/^(177)Hf.展开更多

By controlling the raw material ratio(Sr/Al), the effects of phase composition on subsequent spectroscopic properties of phosphors are studied. Results show that the phase composition changes from strontium-rich phase to aluminumrich phase with the decrease of Sr/Al: when the rate of Al/Sr changes from 3:1 to 1:1, the main crystal phase of samples is Sr3Al2O6, and it exhibits the characteristic fluorescence of Eu 3+ in the lattice of Sr3Al2O6; when the rate of Al/Sr is between 1:2 and 2:7, phase composition is the mixture of SrAl2O4 and SrAl4O7, and it emits the characteristic fluorescence of Eu2+ in SrAl2O4 but not in SrAl4O7; when Al/Sr decreases to 1:4 or even 1:12, the main crystal phase of samples transform into SrAl12O19, and the characteristic emission peak is about 470 nm, which corresponds to the characteristic emission of Eu2+ in SrAl12O19. At the end of the article, the influence laws of two different synthesis methods on phase composition of samples between high-temperature solid method and combustion method are compared. Compared with the high-temperature solid method, the rule of influence is similar, but the mole ratio of Al/Sr in products is always higher than the initial ratio of the raw material, and compounds like Sr4Al14O25 are not obtained by combustion method.展开更多
