The Rb-Sr isochron drawn for the pegmatites is 26~31 Ma,(i.e.in Himalayan).The homogenization temperatures of melt and liquid inclusions in minerals vary from 185 to 920℃,which are comparable to the inclusions observed in banded migmatites and ptygmatic quartz veins in the surrounding metamorphic rocks. The mineralization fluids of the pegmatite were rich in HCO_3 and CO_2,and their compositional assemblages are comparable to metamorphic fluids.Results of H,O,C,Si etc.isotopic analyses and REE,and Be analyses indicates that the sources of mineralization components that formed the pegmatites are closely associated with metamorphic fluids and the enclosing metamorphic rocks. A pegmatite structure simulation experiment was conducted at high temperature and pressure(840℃and 1,500×105Pa.),with various metamorphic rock samples in a water-rich and volatile-rich environment.When the liquidus was reached,the temperature was gradually decreased at the rate of 5~10℃/day over a time period of three months.SEM energy-dispersive spectrum analyses were performed on the experimental products.A series of pegmatoid textures were observed including zonal texture,megacryst texture,drusy cavities,crystal druses,and vesicular texture along with more than ten types of minerals including plagioclase,microcline,quartz and biotite.Different metamorphic rock melts generated different mineral assemblages.Experiment results revealed that the partial melting of metamorphic rocks could form melts similar to pegmatite magmas. Based upon the geological characteristics,geochemistry,and pegmatite texture simulation experimental results,it is concluded that the mineralization components of Ailaoshan aquamarine-bearing pegmatites came from metamorphic rocks.The petrogenetic model for the origin of pegmatites is related to ultrametamorphism and metamorphic anatexis.展开更多

Weathering of the orpiment and realgar-bearing tailings from the Shimen realgar deposit, the largest realgar deposit in Asia, were studied. An integrated mineralogical analysis by using X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), Raman spectrum, scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM) reveals four kinds of As-bearing secondary minerals including arsenic oxides, arsenates, As-gypsum, and As-Fe minerals. The precipitation of arsenates is due to interaction of As-bearing run-off waters and the underlying carbonate rocks, or the transformation of gypsum into arsenates or As-bearing gypsum through SO42-/HAsO42- substitution. Ca-arsenates are mainly weilite and pharmacolite with Ca/As atomic ratio of 1. Scanning transmission X-ray microscope (STXM) and X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) reveal that the valence of arsenic is mainly +3 and +5.展开更多

In this paper, the occurrence of Fe (hydro) oxides and Mn-bearing minerals in Qixiashan were identified by XRD and SEM, mainly consisted of goethite, hematite, pyrolusite and chalcophanite. From the microscope investigation, stromatolite-like structure phenomenon is widespread existed, which may be caused by microbial activities. To identify the mineral structure in the Fe-Mn crust, Raman and XPS were used to identify the mineral structure and valence of Fe, Mn and Zn. This work could help us to know the relationship of Fe and Mn during the weathering of manganese-bearing carbonate. And the enrichment of Mn and Zn from the supergene environment could provide a path for the contamination of heavy metals.展开更多

文摘The composition of fluid inclusions in the H_2O-NaCl-CaCl_2 system has been generally graphically estimated using the melting temperatures of hydrohalite(T_(m-HH))and ice(T_(m-ice)).Here we present two equations that can be used to calculate the relative proportion of NaCl(i.e.,NaCl/[NaCl+CaCl_2],or X_(NaCl))and the total salinity( i.e.,NaC1 + CaC12,wt% )for fluid inclusions with ice as the last melting phase.X_(NaCl)can be calculated from T_(m-HH)using the following equation: y=(a+bx)^(-1/c) where y is X_(NaCl),x is T_(m-HH),a=0.33124402,b=-0.031518028,and c=0.22932736.In the cases where only T_(m-ice)is measured and T_(m-HH)is not known,T_(m-ice)can be used as the maximum possible TIn.nil to calculate the maximum value of X_(NaCl)using the above equation.In these cases,the following equation can be used to calculate the maximum total salinity: y=(a+bx+cx^2)^(-1) where y is salinity,x is T_(m-HH),a=0.057184817,b=0.00078565757,and c=5.7262766E-6.Because the isothems in the field of ice are sub-parallel to the NaCl-CaCl_2 binary side in the H20-NaC1-CaC12 ternary system,the errors in salinity calculation introduced by the above approximation are small(less than 2 wt% ).A Windows program for calculation of X_(NsCl)and salinity is available at: http://uregina.ca/~chiguox.
