Isotope stratigraphy of evaporite sediments represents a fundamental tool in palaeoenvironmental and palaeoclimate reconstruction. This work first illustrates the stable isotope geochemistry of the Shaanxi evaporites, which represents the most significant example of detailed facies stratigraphy for the Majiagou Formation evaporite-carbonate (M5) in Ordos epicontinental sea (Liu Jingdong et al.,展开更多

Equilibrium conditions have been established and its relationship with temperature has been studied. Kaolinite was hydrothermally precipitated starting from non-crystalline aluminosilicate gels. The amount of kaolinite obtained increases up to a limited constant value and in all cases coexists with the amorphous starting gels. It can be seen that the data obtained at 48 hours of synthesis can be considered as quasi-equilibrium, since the total isotopic equilibrium has not been reached, only the sample obtained at 24 hours should be discarded for studies in equilibrium. This would allow us, with the samples obtained at 720 hours, to try to establish a relationship between isotopic fractionation and temperature, provided that we know the water in equilibrium with the synthesized kaolinite. Two equations have been obtained that show correlation coefficients with a high statistical significance.展开更多

Furthermore, an attempt has been made to solve several geochemical problems, such as the origin of CO2 in the system, kinetic fractionation of carbon isotopes during calcite deposition, hydrochemistry and formation of tufa, and carbon-14 dating of tufa of hydrothermal origin. The results show that three kinds of karst dynamic system can be distinguished: (1) the shallow system, such as the Guilin Karst Experimental Site, in which soil CO2 provides the an active agent for karst processes; (2) the geothermal system, such as the Huanglong Ravine, in which metamorphic or/ and juvenile CO, is the source of activity for karst; (3) the anthropogenic system, such as the Wujiangdu Dam Site, in which the stable carbon isotope geochemical and hydrochemical features have been greatly affected by human activity.展开更多

This level is favored in a vote of International Subcommission on Cambrian Stratigraphy (ISCS) as the biohorizon for defining the base of a global stage. Two hundred and sixty-four samples for carbon and oxygen isotope analysis have been collected from the carbonate successions at an interval of 0.25 to 0.5 m in this section. Results of the carbon isotope data exhibit a remarkable disciplinarian trend. The pattern of the carbon isotope evolution is gently undulant with a relatively long period during the underlying Drumian Stage, and then the values of δ13C fluctuate sharply with a short period in provisional seventh stage. The onset of sharp fluctuation in the δ13C values begins at the proposed GSSP level, defining the base of the global seventh stage, where δ13C values change from a gentle trend to a sharp trend. Distinct covariant-relationships among δ13C,δ18O, and sea level fluctuations suggest that a warming change in paleoclimate took place during the early global seventh stage, which led to a positive shift in δ13C values.展开更多

Besides, the application and geological significance of the water-rockexchange theory are also discussed in the light of the H and O isotope compositions and their variation charac-teristics of the mineralizing hydrothermal water and altered rocks from several mineral deposits.

According to their sources, the ore-forming fluids can be divided intofour systems: a) meteoric water system; b) oil-brine system; c) basin-brine system; andd) magmatic-formation water system. The four hydrothermal systems are responsiblefor four types of gold deposits, respectively The meteoric water system produces hotspring gold deposits. The basin-brines, which are derived from fissure water, structuralwater and absorbed water sealed up in strata, are responsible for the basin-brine-typedeposits. The oil-brine system, having the same source as the basin-brines, is characterizedby the involvment of organic matter and is responsible for the oil-brine-type deposits.Inclusion fluld data show that there are obvious differences in chemical compesition andcarbon, oxygen, hydrogen and sulfur isotopes for these hydrothermal systems. Differentmetalloenic provinces, in which one of the four systems is dominant, can be recognizedin the region.展开更多
