The fractionation of RE resulted from hydrothermal alterations, i. e., fluid-rock interactions, are distinctive. One set of field data implies the preferential mobility of the LRE, while another set of field observations demonstrates the dominant mobilization of the HRE, and some theoretical prediction is not consistent with the field evidence. The Eu anomalies caused by fluid-rock interaction are complex and compelling explanation is not available due to inadequate experimental approaches. To know the exact behavior of RE during fluid-rock interaction and to solve the contradiction between some theoretical predictions and field observations, the following works remain to be done: (1) experimental investigations of RE mobility and fractionation as a function of fluid chemistry, e.g., the activity of F -, Cl -, CO 3 2-, HCO 3 -, CO 2, HPO 4 2-, HS -, S 2-, SO 4 2-, etc.; (2) experimental determination of RE mobility and fractionation as a function of T, P, pH, E h and water/rock ratios; (3) investigation of the mechanism and the controlling factors of RE partitioning between hydrothermal minerals and fluids. It was demonstrated that RE mobility is a potentially useful method for exploration.展开更多

It is not sufficient to show the mobility only by the absolute abundance of trace elements changes before and after alteration. This can simply result from dilution or concentration if other elements are added to or removed from the rock. As shown by that in Yinshan deposit, less than 20% of the increment of RE was caused by the 'condensed' of leaching some of major elements (e.g. Si, Na) from the rock. The principal factor which should be responsible for the higher contents of RE in altered rock is the addition of RE into the rock by hydrothermal fluids. Eu is selectively leached from the altered sericite phyllite by a mild acidity and reducing fluid which is characterized by much lower LRE/HRE ratio and a large positive Eu anomaly. A major effect on the RE patterns is the tendency to develop relatively flatter chondrite-normalized patterns. The RE characteristics may be used to distinguish between small and large ore bodies at a later stage of exploration.展开更多

This paper, based on the general geological setting of the Shibangou gold deposit in Xixia, Henan, deals with petrological and petrochemical samples of altered rocks in the metallogenic section and of mylonites in the non\|metallogenic section of a selected shear zone. The discriminations in fluid\|rock interaction and petrological mass balance between altered rocks near the orebody and mylonites in the shear zone are discussed as well. The results show that the petrological volume of altered rocks in the metallogenic section of the shear zone is almost always dilatant and the mylonite volume in the non\|metallogenic section is almost always lost. Major elements in altered rocks from the metallogenic section and in mylonites from the non\|metallogenic section always show a tendency of being enriched and depleted, respectively. Fluid\|rock ratios in the mylonites (Nu=\{93.68-468.40\}) are larger than those of the altered rocks (Nc\+s\-\{(Ⅳ)\}=\{36.11-216.67\}). The gain and loss of major and trace elements from the altered rocks and mylonites in the shear zone are a composite process to be imported and exported by percolating fluids as well as of the loss and dilatancy of rock volume.展开更多

文摘传统的水岩反应实验中,流体在高温高压条件下发生淋滤反应之后,一些物质很容易在冷却过程中发生二次沉淀或吸附,从而影响实验结果的准确性。人工合成流体包裹体技术能在高温高压条件下对流体进行原位取样,再通过激光剥蚀电感耦合等离子体质谱(LA-ICP-MS)进行成分分析,直接获得高温流体的物质组成,可以有效避免这一问题。本研究模拟兰坪地区盆地卤水(NaCl/NaCl+CaCl_(2))与基底岩石(三叠纪辉绿岩、二叠系岩屑灰岩和中三叠统凝灰岩)在高温高压条件下(200℃、10 MPa)发生水岩反应的过程,通过方解石人工合成流体包裹体技术,研究水岩反应对流体成分的影响,探讨流体中成矿元素的来源,以及与盆地内密西西比河谷型(Mississippi Valley-type,MVT)铅锌矿床在成因上的关系。显微测温表明,初始流体为3 m NaCl+0.15 m CaCl_(2)体系的人工合成流体包裹体的冰点温度介于-13.6~-11.4℃之间,初始流体为3 m NaCl体系的合成包裹体的冰点温度介于-11.8~-10.7℃之间,NaCl体系合成包裹体的冰点温度高于NaCl+CaCl_(2)体系的冰点温度,表明人工合成的包裹体流体组分与初始流体组分一致。结合显微测温分析及单个流体包裹体的LA-ICP-MS原位成分分析测试,证实以方解石为寄主矿物合成水岩反应流体包裹体的实验方法在低温流体-岩石相互作用模拟领域具有广阔的应用前景。
