The favorable conditions for petroleum accumulation due to volcanic activity and igneous rocks formed during the activity show in two aspects. A) The contact surface of igneous rocks and the surrounding sedimentary rocks, like a vertical unconformity surface, formed the conduit of petroleum migration. Petroleum would accumulate once it encountered a trap in which the reservoir had fine porosity and permeability. B) It formed a trap barriered by igneous rocks, or changed or cut the original trap. In addition, volcanic rocks are a kind of potential reservoir, there are many such examples in the world, and oil also shows in the Permian igneous rocks in well Zhong-1 on Tazhong uplift. Petroleum accumulation associated with volcanic activity will be a new exploring field in the Tarim basin.展开更多

Based on systematic field investigations, we carried out geochemical studies on representative rock samples. Major and trace element compositions were analyzed for these rock samples by XRF and ICP-MS respectively, and an isotope analysis of Rb-Sr and Sm-Nd was carried out by a MAT 262 mass spectrograph. The results show that the SiO2 contents in lava rocks are 41 %-50.4% and 64 % -69 %, belonging to calc-alkaline basalt and dacite. One notable feature of the basalt is its low TiO2 content, 0.66%-1.01%, much lower than those of continental tholeiite. The ∑REE contents of basalt and dacite are 60.3-135 μg/g and 126, 4--167.9μg/ g respectively. Both rocks have similar REE and other trace element characteristics, with enriched LREE and LILE relative to HREE and HFS, similar REE patterns without Eu anomaly. The basalts have depleted Ti, Ta and Nb and slightly negative Nb and Ta anomalies, with Nb = 0.54--1.17 averaging 0. 84. The dacites have depleted P and Ti and also slightly negative Nb and Ta anomalies, with Nb= 0. 74 -1. 06 averaging 0. 86. Major and trace elemental and isotopic studies suggest that both basalt and dacite originated from the partial melting of the mantle wedge at different degrees above the subduction zone. The spinal Iherzolite in the upper mantle is likely to be their source rocks, which might have been affected by the selective metasomatism of fluids with crustal geochemistry. The LILE contents of both rocks were affected by metamorphism at later stages. The Yeba bimodal volcanic rocks formed in a temporal extensional situation in a mature island arc resulting from the Indosinian Gangdise magmatic arc.展开更多

The experimental results show grinding and calcination can only change the amorphous state of SiO2, and IOT do not have volcanic activity in concrete cured under room temperature condition. Thermal curing systems can stimulate the activity of IOT, especially mortar cured by autoclave curing system can consume a large amount of Ca(OH)2 and hard calcium silicate and has a closer structure. When the specific surface area of IOT powder is 800 m^2/kg, and 30% cement is replaced by IOT powder, the mortar strength with IOT powder is even higher than that with cementonly.展开更多

The core, 896 cm long, was collected from eastern slope of the Okinawa Trough (27°07'N, 127°27'E, water depth 739m). The δ^18O and δ^13C values of the sediment bearing planktonic foraminifera G. sacculifer and N. dutertrei were determined; and the abundance of volcanic glass was analyzed. The volcanic glass content high occurred in early stage of polar ice-sheet growth period, or the beginning of cold climate periods corresponding to Milankovitch cycles (Peak Ⅰ, Ⅱ and V are corresponding to the beginnings of oxygen isotopic stages 2, 4 and 6, and Peak Ⅲ and Ⅳ are matching oxygen isotopic stage 5b-5d.). It might be possible that volcanic episodes and climate changes were responding to orbital forcing in the Okinawa Trough in late Quaternary. The δ^18O difference between N. dutertrei and G. sacculifer shows no clear correlation to the volcanic glass content high, which suggests that the volcanic eruptions did not influence the structure of upper water column. However, the low δ^13C difference between G. sacculifer and N. dutertrei is coeval with the volcanic glass high or sub-high content. This fact suggests that volcanic eruptions might influence the reduction in vertical nutritional gradient and carbon cycle process in upper water column. A possible mechanism is that huge quantity of ash and dust had weakened the light intensity, resulting in photosynthesis reduction, productivity decrease, and biological pumping.展开更多

And according to changes of plate movement in East Asia, a basic regularity of the volcanic activity in Taiwan can be obtainted, i.e. it is closely related with plate movement. The volcanic activity in Taiwan has always been moving about since Mesozoic, as the island lies in a special place of plate tectonic in East Asia, and the volcanic activity zone has changed with variations of plate motion. The paleo-Pacific plate launched a subduction toward the west in Cretaceous. Kula plate took a subduction toward the north from Cretaceous to Eogene. In Oligocene, the direction of the subduction of the Pacific plate changed from northward to westward. Taiwan Island has been the first to be affected by this change since Miocene Epoch. Therefore, volcanic activity occurs in the middle and the east of Taiwan Island. In addition, as the border of subduction moved eastward, the volcanic activity zone moves toward the east, too.Penglai movement in the period ranging from Tertiary to Quatemary is the most magnificent transformation in geological history of Taiwan. As the subduction movement of the Philippine Sea plate was replaced by the collision with Taiwan crust, the volcanic activity in the east of Taiwan Island ceased. Only the northem island and some offshore islands constitute a part of the Quatemary volcanic arc where the signs of volcanic activiy has been still displayed by now. However, the volcanic activity of the Penghu Island Group fell into the same category as that in Quatemary which was caused by the fracture activations in the eastem coast of China.展开更多

There are significant differences in types of polymerized molecular network structure and degree of bond breakdown of the magmatic glass phases between the non-CO2 and CO2 gas pools: magmatic glass phases of fluid inclusions and matrix in volcanic rocks from the CO2 gas pool contain more sheet network molecules and have a greater degree of bond beakdown than those from the non-CO2 gas pool; and when gas bubbles occur in evolving magma, magma saturated with volatile components has more sheet network molecules. The results suggest the magmadegassing mechanism of the formation of CO2 gas pools in the Shengli oilfield.展开更多

Tectonically, it is located on the southern segment of the Changle-Zhao'an fault zone, being one of the regions of Tertiary and Quaternary basaltic eruptions in China's southeast coastal area. In this area there are the Liuhui (Longhai County )-Jiangjun' ao (Zhangpu County) and Gangwei ( Longhai County )-Huxi ( Zhangpu County ) faults, along which basaltic eruption has occurred. The faults have been significantly active since the Quaternary, and several small to moderate earthquakes have occurred on the faults. In this paper, the basic characteristics of the late Quaternary activities and the combination relation of the faults are discussed on the basis of an analysis of along-fault basaltic eruptions during the late Tertiary to late Pleistocene, as well as the differential variation of geomorphic surfaces and marine deposits on both sides of the faults. The results show that the Liuhui-Jiangjun'ao fault is a late Pleistocene active fault. During the late Tertiary to late Pleistocene, three stages of basaltic eruptions occurred along the fault, among which the first stage occurred in the Pleistocene to early Pleistocene, the second stage in the middle Pleistocene and the third stage in the late Pleistocene. The Gangewei-Huxi fault can also be considered a late Pleistocene active fault. The elevation rate of the downthrown side of the fault is estimated to be 1. 11mm/a.These two faults have dissected the area into the Gangwei graben, south Taiwushan horst and the graben in the sea area to the east of Liuhul-Jiangjun'ao.展开更多

The relationship between the formation of the first bend of the Yangtze River and Eocene magmatic activity is expounded, suggesting that the first bend of the Yangtze River is the result from choking of the strong magmatic activity in Eocene. As a result, the upstream became a natural reservoir, whose riverside between Mt. Yulong and Mt. Haba was burst, guiding Jinshajiang River running eastward. At the same time, the drastic uplift of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau led to the deep dissection of the river cut down the channel, resulting in the formation of the Tiger Leaping Gorge. The magnitude of uplift in the study area (located in the eastern of the Tibetan Plateau) is calculated. Taking Mt. Yulong as a base, the magnitude of lift is 3,300 m from Eocene to Pliocene, adding 700 m since Pleistocene, totaling up to 4,000 m or so.展开更多

With the rapid development of remote sensing technology,space monitoring of volcanic activities has already become possible,particularly in the application of thermal infrared remote sensing. The paper,through the detailed analysis of geothermal anomaly factors such as heat radiation,heat conduction and convection,depicts the monitoring principles by which volcano activities would be monitored efficiently and effectively. Reasons for abrupt geothermal anomaly are mainly analyzed,and transmission mechanism of geothermal anomaly in the volcanic regions is explained. Also,a variety of noises disturbing the transmission of normal geothermal anomaly are presented. Finally,some clues are given based on discussing thermal infrared remote sensing monitoring mechanism toward the volcanic areas.展开更多

In Oligocene, the direction of the subduction of the Pacific plate changed from northward to westward. Taiwan Island has been the first to be affected by this change since Miocene Epoch. Therefore, volcanic activity occurs in the middle and the east of Taiwan Island. In addition, as the border of subduction moved eastward, the volcanic activity zone moves toward the east, too.Penglai movement in the period ranging from Tertiary to Quatemary is the most magnificent transformation in geological history of Taiwan. As the subduction movement of the Philippine Sea plate was replaced by the collision with Taiwan crust, the volcanic activity in the east of Taiwan Island ceased. Only the northem island and some offshore islands constitute a part of the Quatemary volcanic arc where the signs of volcanic activiy has been still displayed by now. However, the volcanic activity of the Penghu Island Group fell into the same category as that in Quatemary which was caused by the fracture activations in the eastem coast of China.

文摘Abstract: Types of polymerized molecular network structure and degree of bond breakdown for glass phases of magmatic inclusions and glassy matrix in volcanic rocks from the Shengli oilfield have been defined by the laser Raman spectroscopic investigation. There are significant differences in types of polymerized molecular network structure and degree of bond breakdown of the magmatic glass phases between the non-CO2 and CO2 gas pools: magmatic glass phases of fluid inclusions and matrix in volcanic rocks from the CO2 gas pool contain more sheet network molecules and have a greater degree of bond beakdown than those from the non-CO2 gas pool; and when gas bubbles occur in evolving magma, magma saturated with volatile components has more sheet network molecules. The results suggest the magmadegassing mechanism of the formation of CO2 gas pools in the Shengli oilfield.
文摘The Afar depression is located at the junction among Red sea,Gulf of Aden and the East African Rifts.Tectonic and magmatic activities in Northern Afar have localized to approximately 60 km long, seismically and volcanically active magmatic segments. In September 2005 a seismo-volcanic event of unprecedented scale and intensity took place along the Dabbahu magmatic segment.This activity
文摘The Longhai-Zhangpu coastal region lies in the so-called Golden Triangle area of southern Fujian Province. Tectonically, it is located on the southern segment of the Changle-Zhao'an fault zone, being one of the regions of Tertiary and Quaternary basaltic eruptions in China's southeast coastal area. In this area there are the Liuhui (Longhai County )-Jiangjun' ao (Zhangpu County) and Gangwei ( Longhai County )-Huxi ( Zhangpu County ) faults, along which basaltic eruption has occurred. The faults have been significantly active since the Quaternary, and several small to moderate earthquakes have occurred on the faults. In this paper, the basic characteristics of the late Quaternary activities and the combination relation of the faults are discussed on the basis of an analysis of along-fault basaltic eruptions during the late Tertiary to late Pleistocene, as well as the differential variation of geomorphic surfaces and marine deposits on both sides of the faults. The results show that the Liuhui-Jiangjun'ao fault is a late Pleistocene active fault. During the late Tertiary to late Pleistocene, three stages of basaltic eruptions occurred along the fault, among which the first stage occurred in the Pleistocene to early Pleistocene, the second stage in the middle Pleistocene and the third stage in the late Pleistocene. The Gangewei-Huxi fault can also be considered a late Pleistocene active fault. The elevation rate of the downthrown side of the fault is estimated to be 1. 11mm/a.These two faults have dissected the area into the Gangwei graben, south Taiwushan horst and the graben in the sea area to the east of Liuhul-Jiangjun'ao.
文摘The present experimental technique is used to study the image, crystal phase, pore structure and microstructure of artificial silica fume, and the experimental results show that artificial silica fume is a non-crystalline and porous matter with a high specific surface area and the high activity of volcanic ash. Therefore, it is a type of ideal material which can replace silica fume. (Author abstract) 5 Refs.

文摘Major elements and carbon isotopes of dissolved inorganic carbon(DIC)have been measured in the waters of Changbaishan mountain,a volcanic area in northeastern China,between June and September 2016 to decipher the origin of the CO_2 involved in chemical weathering reactions.Spatial variations of major elements ratios measured in water samples can be explained by a change of the chemical composition of the volcanic rocks between the volcanic cone(trachytes)and the basaltic shield as evidenced by the variations in the composition of these rocks.Hence,DIC results from the neutralization of CO_2 by silicate rocks.DIC concentrations vary from 0.3 to 2.5 mmol/L and carbon isotopic compositions of DIC measured in rivers vary from-14.2‰to 3.5‰.At a first order,the DIC transported by rivers is derived from the chemical weathering’s consumption of CO_2 with a magmatic origin,enriched in^(13)C(-5%)and biogenic soil CO_2 with lower isotopic compositions.The highest δ^(13)C values likely result from C isotopes fractionation during CO_2 degassing in rivers.A mass balance based on carbon isotopes suggest that the contribution of magmatic CO_2 varied from less than 20%to more than 70%.Uncertainties in this calculation associated with CO_2 degassing in rivers are difficult to quantify,and the consequence of CO_2 degassing would be an overestimation of the contribution of DIC derived from the neutralization of magmatic CO_2 by silicate rocks.

文摘The mudstone,gray tuffite and carbonaceous shale in the Upper Carboniferous Batamayineishan Formation(Bashan Formation)are essential source rocks for the volcanic reservoir in eastern Junggar,northwestern China.The kerogen components,vitrinite reflectance,Rock-Eval pyrolysis,lipid biomarkers and isotope compositions were measured to understand the provenance and depositional environment of Bashan Formation under the background of volcanic activities.There were 10 and 4 periods of volcanic eruptions identified in the wells CS and DZ,respectively.The source rocks developed in the late or intermittent phase of volcanic activity.The original island arcs of the Early Carboniferous evolved into the Wucaiwan sag and the Dishuiquan sag in the Bashan Formation.The Wucaiwan sag inherited the restricted,closed residual sea,which had a slightly anoxic and hypersaline environment.The Dishuiquan sag was generally an oxidizing lacustrine environment,influenced by a marine transgression that may have occurred at the end of the DZ_(Ⅲ)period during the Late Carboniferous.Although the total organic matter decreased due to the volcanic eruption,ash could cause an increase of aquatic organisms,coinciding with increases in salinity and reducibility in the Dishuiquan sag.

文摘Based on field observations, the author proposes a new understanding on the formation of the first bend of the Yangtze River. The relationship between the formation of the first bend of the Yangtze River and Eocene magmatic activity is expounded, suggesting that the first bend of the Yangtze River is the result from choking of the strong magmatic activity in Eocene. As a result, the upstream became a natural reservoir, whose riverside between Mt. Yulong and Mt. Haba was burst, guiding Jinshajiang River running eastward. At the same time, the drastic uplift of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau led to the deep dissection of the river cut down the channel, resulting in the formation of the Tiger Leaping Gorge. The magnitude of uplift in the study area (located in the eastern of the Tibetan Plateau) is calculated. Taking Mt. Yulong as a base, the magnitude of lift is 3,300 m from Eocene to Pliocene, adding 700 m since Pleistocene, totaling up to 4,000 m or so.
文摘Volcanic eruption is one of the most serious geological disasters,however,a host of facts have proven that the Changbai Mountains volcano is a modern dormant one and has ever erupted disastrously. With the rapid development of remote sensing technology,space monitoring of volcanic activities has already become possible,particularly in the application of thermal infrared remote sensing. The paper,through the detailed analysis of geothermal anomaly factors such as heat radiation,heat conduction and convection,depicts the monitoring principles by which volcano activities would be monitored efficiently and effectively. Reasons for abrupt geothermal anomaly are mainly analyzed,and transmission mechanism of geothermal anomaly in the volcanic regions is explained. Also,a variety of noises disturbing the transmission of normal geothermal anomaly are presented. Finally,some clues are given based on discussing thermal infrared remote sensing monitoring mechanism toward the volcanic areas.
文摘Most of U-deposits of China, specially the large U-deposits, aresimilar to the U-deposits of many countries. There are close relationsbetween their formation, distributions of time and space and thetectono-magmatic activation of crust. The tectono-magmatic activationdiscussing in this paper (the following called activation for short) isonly confined to the activation after geosyncline stage or the consolida-tion of platform. As a result, the palingenetic geosyncline and medianmassif also belong to the discussing scope. The tectono-magmatism ofgeosyncline stage itself and its relevant U-deposits do not belong to
