滇西水头山岩浆热液铅锌矿床:来自REE和C-O同位素的证据

【研究目的】位于西南“三江”成矿带保山地块南部的水头山矿床,是镇康矿集区内新近勘查突破的又一典型的低温热液型Pb-Zn矿床,由于矿区内未出露岩浆岩,矿床成因存在争议,本文旨在通过对其成矿物质、成矿流体来源的研究,厘定该矿床成因类型。【研究方法】在详细划分该矿床成矿期次和成矿阶段的基础上,运用电感耦合等离子体质谱仪(ICP-MS)对该矿床岩(矿)石和不同阶段的硫化物进行了系统的稀土元素分析,对赋矿围岩碳酸盐岩、大理岩及不同期次的方解石开展了C-O同位素地球化学组成研究,并与毗邻的芦子园超大型铅锌铁多金属矿床进行综合对比,探讨水头山矿床成矿物质来源及成矿流体特征,揭示矿床的成矿机理。【研究结果】该矿床成矿作用可划分为成矿期和表生期,其中热液成矿期可划分为阶段Ⅰ(黄铁矿-黄铜矿-方解石阶段)、阶段Ⅱ(闪锌矿-方铅矿-方解石阶段)和阶段Ⅲ(黄铜矿-方解石阶段)。稀土元素及C-O同位素组成特征的研究表明,水头山矿床各成矿阶段单矿物、矿石Y/Ho值显示其成矿物质来源与深部岩浆活动有关;通过对该矿床单矿物、矿石稀土元素配分模式与保山地块内燕山期的柯街、志本山花岗岩体的稀土配分模式分析对比,表明该矿床成矿流体中的REE主要来自深部岩浆热液,δ^(13)CV-PDB-δ^(18)O_(V-SMOW)图解显示其成矿流体也主要来自岩浆热液,前期成矿热液运移中有沉积岩的混染,后期可能受低温蚀变作用与大气降水的影响。【结论】水头山矿床无论是成矿物质还是成矿流体来源均与矿区深部的岩浆热液密切相关,且与毗邻的芦子园超大型Pb-Zn-Fe多金属矿床具有同源性,是与深部中酸性岩浆热液有关的浅成低温热液矿床。

Magmatic Evolution of the Western Branch of the East African Rift System Melts: Evidence by Silicate Melt Inclusions, Rock Petrography and Geochemistry of the Nyiragongo 1977 and 2002 Lavas in DRC

Nyiragongo volcanic eruptions of 1977 and 2002 emitted silica-undersaturated lavas named melilite-nephelinites with microlithic to sub-porphyritic textures, and consisted of olivine, clinopyroxene (augite), phlogopite, melilite, magnetite, and rare plagioclases. This melilite-nephelinite as an evolved rock, shows low SiO2 (38.40 - 39.52 wt%) and MgO (3.10 - 4.01 wt%), and relatively high FeOt (13.76 - 14.10 wt%), Al2O3 (15.01 - 16.48 wt%), CaO (11.00 - 12.29 wt%) and Na2O + K2O (10.34 - 11.85 wt%). Unlike LA-ICP-MS on silicate melt inclusions (SMIs) hosted in augite show a pristine melt of picrobasaltic (low Ti-picrite) rock poor in SiO2 (31.14 - 32.26 wt%), FeOt (2.19 - 2.79 wt%), Al2O3 (8.01 - 9.57 wt%), and Na2O + K2O (2.34 - 3.05 wt%), while enriched in MgO (20.27 - 28.63 wt%), and CaO (24.95 - 33.17 wt%). The sums (∑REEs) for lavas and SMIs are ranging 712 - 799 and 43 - 119 ppm respectively. REE contracted multi-element patterns showed a W-feature for most lavas except for SMIs. High Rb/Sr, and low Ba/Rb, Zr/Nb, and Sm/Hf ratios of lavas suggest a phlogopite-rich source of materials. .

Effects of the Produced Water from a Sour Oilfield in South Kuwait on the Production Tubing

Kuwaiti oil production faces a growing challenge in the increasing quantities of produced water generated in the production of oil. The high water cut of the produced fluid from the wells and the high salinity of the produced water lead to significant degradation of subsurface equipment, specifically the production tubing. Debris generated through the degradation of the inner part of the tubing becomes a constituent of the scaling that deposits in the tubing and blocks the flow of the production fluid, inducing higher maintenance costs. This paper looks at the characteristics of the scaling in regard to the produced water and outlines the economic impact of the produced water induced degradation of the tubing structure.

Fault Systems and their Control of Deep Gas Accumulations in Xujiaweizi Area

A study of faults and their control of deep gas accumulations has been made on the basis of dividing fault systems in the Xujiaweizi area. The study indicates two sets of fault systems are developed vertically in the Xujiaweizi area, including a lower fault system and an upper fault system. Formed in the period of the Huoshiling Formation to Yingcheng Formation, the lower fault system consists of five fault systems including Xuxi strike-slip extensional fault system, NE-trending extensional fault system, near-EW-trending regulating fault system, Xuzhong strike-slip fault system and Xudong strike-slip fault system. Formed in the period of Qingshankou Formation to Yaojia Formation, the upper fault system was affected mainly by the boundary conditions of the lower fault system, and thus plenty of muiti-directionally distributed dense fault zones were formed in the T2 reflection horizon. The Xuxi fault controlled the formation and distribution of Shahezi coal-measure source rocks, and Xuzhong and Xndong faults controlled the formation and distribution of volcanic reservoirs of Y1 Member and Y3 Member, respectively. In the forming period of the upper fault system, the Xuzhong fault was of successive strong activities and directly connected gas source rock reservoirs and volcanic reservoirs, so it is a strongly-charged direct gas source fault. The volcanic reservoir development zones of good physical properties that may be found near the Xuzhong fault are the favorable target zones for the next exploration of deep gas accumulations in Xujiaweizi area.

Landscape Network Approach to Assess Ecological Impacts of Road Projects on Biological Conservation

Awareness of the adverse ecological effects of road and other large construction projects has resulted in a rapidly growing demand to quantitatively predict and evaluate the effects on gene flow among plants and animals in natural habitats.In this study,we evaluated the effects of different road construction scenarios on animal species movement by using the methods of ecological landscape connectivity in the typical regions of Yunnan Province,China.The results showed landscape connectivity levels(Probability of Connectivity(PC))decreased after road construction and species with lower dispersal abilities were more affected to the subsequent habitat fragmentation.First level roads affected landscape connectivity most significantly.At a distance of 100 m,the PC index decreased more than 50%.Further analysis suggested that the use of landscape connectivity to assess landscape processes revealed the adverse effects on the species movement more effectively compared with the traditional landscape pattern analysis.In addition,we conducted a graph theory and a least-cost modeling discussion,it is obvious that they are powerful tools to represent and analyze landscape networks with respect to related species movement.Network analysis offers a quantitative and simple but effective tool for ecological process assessment and biological conservation on large scales.

Ordovician Cephalopod Biofacies of South China and Its Provincialization

The research on biofacies and its provincialization is of important significance not only for the increasing of precision of stratigraphic subdivision and correlation in South China, the reconstruction of ancient environment and paleogeography and even the guiding of oil and gas exploration, but also for the study of paleobiogeogrphy and sea level changes of southern China in Ordovician. On the basis of the studies of the ecological characteristics of Ordovician cephalopods from South China, eighteen cephalopod biofacies are recognized and described ： （1） Open platform Proterocameroceras biofacies ; （2） Restricted platform Pseudoectenolites-Xiadongoceras biofacies; （ 3 ） Open platform Retroclitendoceras- Pararetroclitendoceras biofacies; （4） Open platform Pronajaceras-Mamagouceras biofacies ; （5） Shelf slope-basin Cyclostomiceras biofacies; （6） Open platform Cameroceras-Cyrtovaginoceras biofacies; （7） Open platform Coreanoceras-Manchuroceras biofacies; （8） Shelf slope-basin Kaipingoceras- Kyminoceras biofacies; （9） Inner shelf Bathmoceras-Protocycloceras biofacies; （10） Middle shelf Dideroceras-Ancistroceras biofacies; （11） Deep-water shelf Lituites-Cyclolituites biofacies ; （12） Stag- nant basin Lituites-Trilacinoceras biofacies; （13） Deep-water basin Paraendoceras-Sactorthoceras biofacies; （14） Deep-water shelf Sinoceras-Michelinoceras-Disoceras biofacies; （15） Deep-water shelf Beloitoceros-Jiangshanoceras biofacies; （16） Deep-water shelf-basin Eurasiaticoceras biofacies; （ 17 ） Shelf-slope Jiangxiceras-Yushanoceras biofacies; （18） Deep-water basin Michelinoceras biofacies. The cephalopods of these biofacies, their ecological characteristics, and living conditions are elucidated in this article. The association law of cephalopod biofacies in time and space shows that there were three cephalopod biofacies provinces in South China during the Ordovician, i.e. , Yangtze biofacies province, East Guizhou （贵州）-West Hunan （湖南） biofacies province （mixed-type biofacies province）, and Central Hunan-West Zhejiang （浙江） biofacies province. It is suggested that differentiation of cephalopod biofacies was mainly controlled by sea level changes and tectonic evolution. The differentiation is obvious during lower sea level and not developed during high sea level.

Surface-Related Multiple Elimination on High-Resolution Geopulse Profile

A geopulse seismic system was implemented to obtain new information on underlying strata beneath the Yellow River Delta. However, owing to the shpping of sea floor and shallow water （ 〈 25 m）, free surface-related multiples are conflicted with the flat primaries, which may instruct the interpreters in a wrong way and make wrong conclusions. Owing to the variation of multiple periods, standard anti-multiple techniques may lose their power, such as predictive deconvolution. Surface-related multiple elimination methods are introduced to attenuate the multiples based on the underlying waveequation principles. The results justified the method on the single-channel geopulse profile, revealing the real nature of the subsurface.

Unusual dinosaur trackway preservation as clues to paleo-landscape and behavior from the Lower Cretaceous Luohe Formation,Shaanxi Province,China

Poorly preserved tracks have limited ichnotaxonomic or biotaxon utility,but may reveal useful information about the paleoenvironment,behavior and track taphonomy.Eight mostly parallel to sub parallel trackway segments(T1–T8)were registered on a truncation surface in the Lower Cretaceous Luohe Formation of Shaanxi Province.These attest to the passage of several bipeds,probably all theropods,in a paleo-contour-parallel,south-north direction in an arid setting.Quality of preservation in these trackways is poor,but notably superior in two additional trackways(T9–T10)on a foreset surface.Trackway T9 indicates a didactyl trackmaker,probably a deinonychosaurian,heading north to south.This is the 13th report of deinonychosaurian tracks from the Lower Cretaceous of China.If any or all the eight south-north oriented trackway segments represent continuations of other segments in the same trackways,the total number of individual trackmakers heading in this direction may have been as lowas three.Although the trackway pattern and sedimentological evidence could indicate a physically controlled pathway influencing the direction taken by these trackmakers,the possibility that the trackways also represented small social or gregarious group cannot be ruled out.

THE INFLUENCE OF PERSISTENT ANOMALY OF MJO ON ENSO

In this study,two possible persistent anomalies of the Madden-Julian Oscillation mode(MJO) are found in the summer season(persistently Pacific active and Indian Ocean active),and an index is set to define the intensity of the two modes.They are proved to have high statistical correlations to the later ENSO events in the autumn and winter seasons:When persistent anomaly of MJO happens in the Pacific Ocean in summer,El Nino events are often induced during the autumn and winter seasons of that year.However,during the other MJO mode when the summer persistent anomaly of MJO occurs in the Indian Ocean,La Nina events often follow instead.The analysis of the atmospheric circulation field indicates that persistent anomaly of MJO can probably affect the entire Equatorial Pacific circulation,and results in wind stress anomalies.The wind stress anomalies could excite warm or cold water masses which propagate eastwards at the subsurface ocean.The accumulation of warm or cold subsurface water in the Equatorial Eastern Pacific Ocean may eventually lead to the formation of an ENSO.

Turkey Creek—A Case Study of Ecohydrology and Integrated Watershed Management in the Low-Gradient Atlantic Coastal Plain, USA

Water yield, water supply and quality, wildlife habitat, and ecosystem productivity and services are important societal concerns for natural resource management in the 21st century. Watershed-scale ecohydrologic studies can provide needed context for addressing complex spatial and temporal dynamics of these functions and services. This study was conducted on the 5240 ha Turkey Creek watershed (WS 78) draining a 3rd order stream on the Santee Experimental Forest within the South Carolina Atlantic Coastal Plain, USA. The study objectives were to present the hydrologic characteristics of this relatively undisturbed, except by a hurricane (Hugo, 1989), forested water-shed and to discuss key elements for watershed management, including water resource assessment (WRM), modeling integrated water resources management, environmental assessment, land use planning, social impact assessment, and information management. Runoff coefficients, flow duration curves, flood and low flow frequency curves, surface and ground water yields were assessed as elements of the WRM. Results from the last 10 years of interdisciplinary studies have also advanced the understanding of coastal ecohydrologic characteristics and processes, water balance, and their modeling including the need of high resolution LiDAR data. For example, surface water dynamics were shown to be regulated primarily by the water table, dependent upon pre- cipitation and evapotranspiration (ET). Analysis of pre- and post-Hugo streamflow data showed somewhat lower but insignificant (α = 0.05) mean annual flow but increased frequency of larger flows for the post-Hugo compared with the pre-Hugo level. However, there was no significant difference in mean annual ET, potentially indicating the resiliency of this coastal forest. Although the information from this study may be useful for comparison of coastal ecohydrologic issues, it is becoming increasingly clear that multi-site studies may be warranted to understand these complex systems in the face of climate change, sea level rise, and increasing development in coastal regions.

Largest dinosaur tracksite in China (Cretaceous, Zhaojue area, Sichuan Province): On the verge of destruction

The Zhaojue(ZJ)tracksites represent multiple steeply-inclined,track-bearing exposures in the clastic Feitianshan Formation of Sichuan Province that have been sequentially,excavated,mapped,expanded and destroyed,by quarrying,erosion or collapse,for almost three decades.The quarried area extends for more almost 1.0 km from north to south and-0.5 km from east to west.Four important track-bearing surfaces have been identified and identified as ZJ-Ⅰ,ZJ-Ⅱ,ZJ-ⅡN and ZJ-Ⅲ,some of which are newly exposed surfaces or expanded surfaces that were previously partially described.Others represent surfaces lost since they were first reported in papers published in 2014-2016.The ZJ-Ⅱ site represents a hugely expanded continuation of a much smaller track-bearing surface described in 2014.It was mapped using drone technology,and now represents the largest tracksite in China,with a minimum count of 933 recognizable tracks,and the longest recorded sauropod and ornithopod trackways from China(-80 m and-52 m respectively),which also reveal a pronounced change in the direction of trackmaker movement.The ZJ-Ⅱ surface represents the best Zhaojue paleo-census sample giving a count of 68 individuals from 61 trackways(37 ornithopod,10 theropod,14 sauropod)and isolated tracks(representing 7 individuals).Thus,ornithopods(both large and small trackmakers)represent-54%of the total number of trackways.The smaller ZJ-Ⅲ surface was mapped using traditional methods,and reveals at least 6 ornithopod-and 4 theropod trackways.Both the ZJ-Ⅱ and ZJ-Ⅲ surfaces reveal parallel ornithopod trackways suggestive of social or gregarious behavior.The combined data from all four Zhaojue surfaces reveal a total of 1928 tracks,and include a few previously reported pterosaurs and theropod swim tracks.The Zhaojue quarry complex provide a good example of multiple track-bearing sites(surfaces)that require long term study and monitoring to extract as much trackway data as possible before in situ physical evidence is lost.

The Middle-Upper Jurassic dinosaur-pterosaur fauna in Shandong Province,China:Evidence from ichnology

Tracks previously examined between 2002 and 2015 from an incompletely-studied,and now partially lost tracksite site in the Santai Formation of Shandong Province were restudied based on new ex-cavations of additional surfaces.In contrast to the previous reports of tridactyl tracks,including Grallator,the present study discovered an additional assemblage of unequivocal pterosaur tracks(Pteraichnus)and a possible didactyl deinonychosaurian track.The age of the Santai Formation is controversial but it is probably Late Jurassic,which corresponds to the epoch when pterosaur tracks appear worldwide.Age interpretations,based on palynology and isotopic data,tentatively suggests an earlier Middle-Late Jurassic age and might suggest that the pterosaurian tracks are as old or somewhat older than any previously reported.

Wavelet analysis of rainfall variation in the Hebei Plain

Based on the monthly and annual rainfall data of 1955―2000, the multi-time scales characteristics of seasonal and annual rainfall in the past 45 years in the Hebei Plain have been analyzed using Mexican Hat wavelet analysis in this article. The periodic oscillation of rainfall variation and the points of abrupt change at different time scales along the time series are dis-covered. According to the main periods, the trend of rainfall variation in the future has also been estimated. The results indicate that there are obvious periodic oscillations of 8―12 years and 4―6 years for the seasonal and annual rainfalls variation. The variation trend of the summer rainfall is in agreement with that of the annual rainfall and both of them have the main periods of 1 year and 12 years. It is estimated, based on the main period of 1 year, that the amount of rainfall will be relatively small around 2003 and abundant around 2004―2007 in the Hebei Plain.

SOLUTE TRANSPORT IN NATURAL FRACTURES BASED ON DIGITAL IMAGE TECHNOLOGY

A method of fracture boundary extraction was developed using the Gaussian template and Canny boundary detection on the basis of the collected digital images of natural fractures. The roughness and apertures of the fractures were briefly discussed from the point of view of digital image analysis. The extracted fractured image was translated into a lattice image which can be directly used in numerical simulation. The lattice Boltzmann and modified moment propagation mixed method was then applied to the simulation of solute transport in a natural single fracture, and this mixed method could take the advantages of the lattice Boltzmann method in dealing with complex physical boundaries. The obtained concentrations was fitted with the CXTFIT2.1 code and compared with the results obtained with the commercial software Feflow. The comparison indicates that the simulation using the mixed method is sound.
