According to the relative retention, mass spectral characteristics, and comparison with existing literature, a complete carbon number distribution ranging from C27 to C35(without C28) in the 17a(H)-diahopane series and early-eluting rearranged hopane series is identified. Compounds in the 18a(H)-neohopane series(Ts and C29Ts) and21-methyl-28-nor-hopane series(29Nsp and 30Nsp) are also noted. These four series of rearranged hopanes seem to occur in both brackish-saline lacustrine and coal measure environments. However, the coal measure and swamp environments being under an oxic condition, compared with brackish-saline lacustrines, are presumably more helpful to the formation of 30 E. Diversity in the content and distribution patterns indicate that rearranged hopanes could serve as good indicators of organic facies, depositional environment and maturity in petroleum geology.展开更多

As the ores mostly exhibit concretionary structure, previous researchers named them the "Madouzi-type Copper Deposit". Here the authors carried out mineralogical and isotopic studies on copper nodules in this ore deposit. The mineralogical study shows that copper nodules are composed of copper sulfides that have been cemented by ferruginous amorphous minerals, clay, and carbonaceous fragments in the modes of metasomatism and sedimentation. The nodules are preliminarily present as aggregates of gelatinous material. The isotopic analysis shows that the δ 13CPDB values of an- thraxolite are within the range of-24.8‰--23.9‰, indicating that the anthraxolite is the product of sedimentary metamorphism of in-situ plants. The δ 34SV-CDT values of chalcocite are within the range of 7.6‰-13.1‰, close to those (about 11‰) of Permian seawater. The δ 34SV-CDT values of bornite and chalcopyrite are 21.6‰-22.2‰, similar to the sulfur isotopic composition (20‰) of marine sulfate, indicative of different sources of sulfur. The above characteristics indicate that the copper nodules were formed in such a process that Cu-bearing basalt underwent weathering-leaching and copper-bearing material was transported into waters (e.g., rivers, lakes, and swamps) and then adsorbed on clay and ferruginous amorphous mineral fragments. Then, the copper-bearing material was suspended and transported in the form of gelinite. In lake or swamp environment, it was co-deposited with sediments to form copper nodules. At later stages there occurred metasomatism and hydrothermal su- perimposition, followed by the replacement of chalcocite by bornite and the superimposition of chalcopyrite over bornite, finally resulting in the formation of the "Madouzi-type" nodular copper deposit.展开更多
