Ground subsidence mechanism of a filling mine with a steeply inclined ore body

Long-term field monitoring finds that serious surface subsidence can still occur even if the high strength cemented fill method is adopted.Combining the results of numerical simulations with global position system(GPS)monitoring,we took a typical filling mining mine with a steeply inclined ore body as an example,and explored its ground subsidence mechanism.The results show that the ground subsidence caused by the mining of steep ore body is characterized by two settlement centers and a significantly uneven spatial distribution,which is visibly different from ground subsidence characteristic of the coal mine.The subsidence on the hanging wall is much larger than that on the footwall,and the settlement center tends to move to the hanging wall with the increase of mining depth.The backfill improves the strength and surrounding rock bearing capacity,which leads to a lag of about 3 years of the subsidence.However,under the actions of continuous and repeated mining disturbances,the supporting effect of the backfill can only reduce the amplitude of the deformation,but it cannot prevent the occurrence of settlement.

Geochemistry, mineral paragenesis and geothermal conditions of oreforming fluids from the Ain El Bey Cu–Fe deposit: potential occurrence of native gold and precious metal traces (North African orogenic belt, Northern Tunisia)

The Ain El Bey abandoned mine, in North-West Tunisia, fits into the geodynamic context of the European and African plate boundary. Ore deposit corresponds to veins and breccia of multiphase Cu–Fe-rich mineralization related to various hydrothermal fluid circulations. Petromineralogical studies indicate a rich mineral paragenesis with a minimum of seven mineralization phases and, at least, six pyrite generations. As is also the case for galena and native silver, native gold is observed for the first time as inclusion in quartz which opens up, thus, new perspectives for prospecting and evaluating the potential for noble metals associated with the mineralization. Scanning Electron Microscope--Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy and Transmission electron microscopy analyses show, in addition, a large incorporation of trace elements, including Ag and Au, in mineral structures such as fahlores(tetrahedrite-tennantite) and chalcopyrite ones. The mineral/mineral associations, used as geothermometers, gave estimated temperatures for the mineralizing fluids varying from 254 to 330 ℃ for phase Ⅲ, from 254 to 350 ℃ for phase Ⅳ, and from 200 to 300 ℃ for phases Ⅴ and Ⅵ. The seventh and last identified mineralization phase, marked by a deposit of native gold, reflects a drop in the mineralizing fluid’s temperature(< 200 ℃) compatible with boiling conditions. Such results open up perspectives for the development of precious metal research and the revaluation of the Cu–Fe ore deposit at the Ain El Bey abandoned mine, as well as at the surrounding areas fitting in the geodynamic framework of the Africa-Europe plate boundary.

Geochemical Characteristics,Genesis of Concealed Cu-rich Ore Body in the Jinchuan Deposit,Northwestern China,and Its Prospecting

The Jinchuan deposit is hosted by the olivine-rich ultramafic rock body, which is the thirdlargest magmatic sulfide Ni-Cu deposit in the world currently being exploited. Seeking new relaying resources in the deep and the border of the deposit becomes more and more important. The ore body, ore and geochemistry characteristics of the concealed Cu-rich ore body are researched. Through spatial analysis and comparison with the neighboring II1 main ore body, the mineralization rule of the concealed Cu-rich ore body is summed up. It is also implied that Cu-rich magma may exist between Nirich magma and ore pulp during liquation differentiation in deep-stage chambers, which derives from deep-mantle Hi-MgO basalt magma. It is concluded that the type of ore body has features of both magmatic liquation and late reconstruction action. It has experienced three stages： deep liquation and pulsatory injection of the Cu- and PPGE-rich magma, concentration of tectonic activation, and the later magma hydrothermal superimposition. In addition, the Pb and S isotopes indicate the magma of I6 concealed Cu-rich ore body originates predominantly from mantle; however, it is interfused by minute crust material. Finally, it is inferred that the genesis of the Cu-Ni sulfide deposit is complex and diverse, and the prospect of seeking new deep ore bodies within similar deposits is promising, especially Cu-rich ore bodies.

Lithium extraction from hard rock lithium ores(spodumene,lepidolite,zinnwaldite,petalite):Technology,resources,environment and cost

Lithium production in China mainly depends on hard rock lithium ores,which has a defect in resources,environment,and economy compared with extracting lithium from brine.This paper focuses on the research progress of extracting lithium from spodumene,lepidolite,petalite,and zinnwaldite by acid,alkali,salt roasting,and chlorination methods,and analyzes the resource intensity,environmental impact,and production cost of industrial lithium extraction from spodumene and lepidolite.It is found that the sulfuric acid method has a high lithium recovery rate,but with a complicated process and high energy consumption;alkali and chlorination methods can directly react with lithium ores,reducing energy consumption,but need to optimize reaction conditions and safety of equipment and operation;the salt roasting method has large material flux and high energy consumption,so require adjustment of sulfate ratio to increase the lithium yield and reduce production cost.Compared with extracting lithium from brine,extracting lithium from ores,calcination,roasting,purity,and other processes consume more resources and energy;and its environmental impact mainly comes from the pollutants discharged by fossil energy,9.3-60.4 times that of lithium extracted from brine.The processing cost of lithium extraction from lepidolite by sulfate roasting method is higher than that from spodumene by sulfuric acid due to the consumption of high-value sulfate.However,the production costs of both are mainly affected by the price of lithium ores,which is less competitive than that of extracting lithium from brine.Thus,the process of extracting lithium from ores should develop appropriate technology,shorten the process flow,save resources and energy,and increase the recovery rate of related elements to reduce environmental impact and improve the added value of by-products and the economy of the process.

Geological Characteristics and Regional Prospecting Model of Wulanchongji Gold Orebody, Alxa Youqi, Inner Mongolia, China

Five gold deposits (mineralization) were found in the study area by means of geological mapping, soil geochemical survey and trough exploration engineering. The ore-bearing lithology is mainly metamorphic feldspar sandstone of the Upper Carboniferous Benbatu Formation, and the gold (mineralization) body is controlled by both structural factors and stratigraphic factors of the Upper Carboniferous Benbatu Formation. The genetic type is preliminary concluded to be volcanic hydrothermal type, and the metallogenic age is late Variscan. In this paper, by studying the geological characteristics and metallogenic geological conditions of the gold orebody in the area, a regional prospecting model has been established, which is of great significance to better guide the prospecting work of similar gold deposits in the area and the region.

Study on Epithermal Gold Mineralization System at Shwebontha Prospect,Monywa Copper-Gold Ore Field,Central Myanmar

The Shwebontha prospect area is situated in the Central Volcanic Belt,central Myanmar,where the well-known Sagaing Fault serves as its eastern boundary.This study aims to document key the mineralogy,host rock geochemistry and ore mineralizing fluids.The mineralization,hosted by Upper Oligocene to Middle Miocene rhyolites,displays a strong lithological control.Mineralization is characterized by gold-bearing silicified massive ore and chalcedonic quartz veins in which sulfides are clustered and disseminated not only in quartz gangue but also in rhyolite host rocks.The significant ore minerals in the mineralized veins include pyrite,sphalerite,galena,chalcopyrite,and gold.Common hydrothermal alterations such as silicic,argillic and propylitic alteration types are recognized.According to the fluid inclusion data and interpretation,ore mineralizing fluids in the research area are characterized by formation temperatures of 260-280℃ and salinity of 0.35-2.41%wt.NaCl eq.respectively.Mixing of hydrothermal fluids was generally considered to be an effective mechanism for ore transport and deposition.

贵东复式岩体中东部晚期花岗质小岩体的SHRIMP锆石U-Pb年龄及其地质意义

贵东复式岩体由多期次、多类型的岩体组成,且东部盛产铀矿床,因此精确厘定该复式岩体的时代及其时序,查明复式岩体东部与中西部岩浆活动的差异性及其与铀成矿的关系,不仅有利于深入研究区域岩浆活动,而且有利于深刻认识铀的成矿规律。现有研究认为,以龟尾山断裂带为界,贵东复式岩体中西部岩基属燕山早期、东部岩基属印支早期,东部广泛发育的燕山期中基性脉岩与铀成矿关系密切。但对复式岩体中东部呈岩枝、岩株广泛出露的晚期花岗质小岩体的成岩地质时代及其分布规律尚存在争议,也有待进一步查明花岗质小岩体与铀矿床的时空关系。文章选择贵东复式岩体中东部晚期花岗质小岩体为研究对象,采用SHRIMP锆石U-Pb法厘定其成岩时代,并分析它们的时空分布及其与铀成矿的关系。测试结果显示,贵东复式岩体中东部晚期花岗质小岩体普遍存在高铀锆石,这可能是对同一岩体不同学者所获得的^(206)Pb/^(238)U加权平均年龄差别较大的主要原因。剔除高铀锆石的年龄数据,龟尾山断裂带以西的隘子、司前、陈洞岩体锆石^(206)Pb/^(238)U加权平均年龄分别为163.0±1.6 Ma、163.1±1.6 Ma、160.7±1.9 Ma,属燕山早期岩浆活动的产物;而以东的帽峰、分水坳、龟尾山岩体锆石^(206)Pb/^(238)U加权平均年龄分别为230.0±2.7 Ma、225.9±2.9 Ma和232.6±3.1 Ma,属印支期岩浆活动的产物。所以,龟尾山断裂以西和以东晚期花岗质小岩体的时代不同。且龟尾山断裂带以东的印支期花岗质小岩体空间上与铀矿化、尤其是与燕山早期的绢英岩化型等中高温热液铀矿化关系密切,是主要的储矿围岩;结合元素地球化学研究结果,该区产出的印支期花岗质小岩体也可为铀成矿提供铀源。

氧化石墨烯辅助仿生矿化原位合成羟基磷灰石

羟基磷灰石(HAp)是一种与人体骨骼成分类似的无机材料,具有良好的生物相容性。本文以氧化石墨烯(GO)为模板,通过模拟体液(SBF)仿生矿化原位合成了HAp纳米粒子。通过SEM、XRD、EDS和拉曼光谱等测试分析研究了矿化时间、SBF/GO体积比对矿化产物物相组成、形貌和结构的影响。结果表明,矿化处理后的GO表面形成了大量均匀分布的类骨HAp。随着矿化时间延长和SBF体积占比增大,矿化产物的尺寸及数量增大,GO层间距逐渐扩大。本研究验证了GO辅助合成HAp的可行性,拓展了仿生矿化法的应用领域。

松辽盆地南部砂岩型铀矿储层结构与铀成矿作用

以松辽盆地南部DL地区砂岩型铀矿为目标,在沉积学背景研究的基础上,开展铀储层结构与铀成矿作用研究。通过钻孔数据统计及系统的取样分析并编制铀储层非均质性图件,精细地刻画了姚家组铀储层的几何形态和复杂结构,充分展示了铀储层的定量非均质性。结果显示,区内灰色砂体多为原生灰色砂体,而下氧化带在沉积期后经历了较强的表生流体改造,为后生氧化带,矿体主要分布于河道砂体分岔处,以及从无隔挡层到隔挡层突然变厚的河道砂体边缘而非河道中央,其形态受氧化还原界面控制以板状为主。综合分析认为,表生流体成矿作用经历了晚白垩世姚家组含矿主岩预富集与表生流体叠加改造成矿2个阶段。通过对比DL地区储层结构对铀成矿的控制作用,在BL地区优选出3片找矿靶区,为下一步的勘查工作提供理论依据。

Reconstruction of Ore-controlling Structures Resulting from Magmatic Intrusion into the Tongling Ore Cluster Area during the Yanshanian Epoch

The Tongling ore cluster area experienced intensive compression and associated shearing during the Indosinian-Yanshanian Epoch, which formed a trunk ore-controlling fold and fault system in the caprock. The magmatic intrusion in the Yanshanian Epoch induced a multi-stage unmixing of poly-phase fluids, resulting in mineralization characterized by multi-layer, wide-range, and multiform styles. The magmatic intrusion in the Tongling area not only supplied the essential ore-forming materials, but also reconstructed the ore-controlling structures according to a trend surface simulation of the following five strata boundaries： Silurian-Devonian, Devonian-Carboniferous, Carboniferous- Permian, Middle Permian-Upper Permian and Permian -Triassic. The result of this simulation shows that there exists a significant difference between the strata in the upper part and those in the lower. The lower trend surfaces are antiform whereas the upper trend surfaces are synform. In addition, superposing of the trend surfaces of adjacent bed boundaries （such as, Silurian-Devonian boundary superposed upon Devonian-Carboniferous boundary） shows that the lower trend surface always pierces the one above. Moreover, the position and orientation of the pierced parts of the different superposed trend surfaces are similar and show E-W-trending zonal distribution in accordance with the distribution of the regional E-W-trending magmatic-metallogenic belt. Based on comprehensive analysis of the mechanical properties of the strata, structural deformation mechanisms, and field phenomena, it seems that the special characteristics of the stratal trend surface resulted from jacking due to magmatic intrusion into the caprock previously controlled by an E-W-trending basement fault. Therefore, it is deduced that the major ore-controlling structures, which formed during regional horizontal compression, were reconstructed by the vertical jacking function of ore-forming magmas during the Yanshanian Epoch. During the ore-forming process, the local vertical jacking of magmas, coupled with the regional horizontal compression, optimized an extensive environment in the fluid- conduit network and accelerated the unmixing of poly-phase fluids following magmatic emplacement. Jacking also strengthened the vertical and lateral fluid-guiding structures, supplying more suitable physical conditions for multi-layer emplacement and wide-ranging transport of poly-phase fluids.

Metallogenic Epoch and Ore-forming Environment of the Lamasu Skarn-porphyritic Cu-Zn deposit,western Tianshan,Xinjiang,NW China

Granitic rocks, widely developed in the Lamasu copper ore region, western Tianshan were formed at 390.5±7.7 Ma according to the SHRIMP zircon U-Pb dating of the plagioclase granite porphyry. Based on the regional tectonic evolution and published chronological data of both diagenesis and mineralization, the Biezhentao- Kokirqin region was rolled into the orogen associated with the closure of Yili Ocean during early Devonian. The N-S-trending thrust faults were formed during this period and accompanied by the intrusion of granitic rocks. On this stage, the paleo-Asian Ocean Plate entered into the early collision orogenic phase and the plagioclase granite porphyry intruded （390.5±7.7 Ma） and replaced with limestone of the Mesoproterozoic Kusongmuqieke Group, Jixianian System and formed the early phase of skarn-type copper mineralization in the Lamasu region. Furthermore, the subduction-melting of Bayingou Ocean Plate during Carboniferous generated a deep-seated magmatic chamber in the Lamasu copper ore region which located in the northwestern part of the Paleozoic Biezhentao-Kokirqin island arc. The magmatic chamber segregated Cu-bearing magmas, which transported upward to the shallow earth crust along the faults or fractures and formed the Cu-hosting porphyry. According to the research on the characteristics of the ore deposit and the ore-forming environment as mentioned above, the Lamasu Cu-Zn deposit was characterized by the superposing of mineralization at different geological settings and it was skarn-porphyritic type.
