Chronology and origin of Au-Cu deposits related to paleozoic intracontinental rifting in West Tianshan Mountains,NW China

Located between the Tarim platform and Junggar massif, the West Tianshan intracontinental rift abuts against the China-Kazakhstan boundary in the west part, borders on the Yilianha-bierga late Paleozoic relic ocean basin and the South Tianshan late Paleozoic ocean basin respectively in the northeast separated by the Aibi Lake fault and in the southeast by the fault along the southern margin of the Yili massif. During the development and after the close of the West Tianshan intracontinental rifting in the Carboniferous-Permian period, a series of nonferrous and precious metal mineralizations occurred with the Au-Cu deposits being the most important. Isotopic chronologic study of representative deposits of different types shows that gold-copper mineralization in the West Tianshan intracontinental rift zone mainly happened during the middle-late Her-cynian Period, among which the Axi volcanic hydrothermal type gold deposit was formed during the Carboniferous with a fluid inclusion Rb-Sr isochron age of (339 ± 28) Ma; the Qiabukanzhuota quartzolite type gold deposit has a Rb-Sr isochron age of (312 ± 46) Ma; the Tawuerbieke porphyry type gold deposit has a Rb-Sr isochron age of (295 ± 16) Ma; the Jingbulak magmatic liquation Cu-Ni deposit and the Musizaote porphyry type Cu deposit have the forming ages of 300 Ma± and 250 Ma±, respectively. Analyses of crustal evolution and metallogenetic geological backgrounds of Au-Cu mineralizations in the studied area shows a close correlation with the rifting.

Chronology and origin of VMS deposits in Xinjiang,NW China

VMS deposits in Xinjiang, NW China are widespread in the Altay, Tianshan and West Kunlun orogenic belt, mainly formed during the Proterozoic rifting and Phanerozoic post-orogenic extension and are related to the bimodal volcanism. The VMS deposits are middle and small in scale. According to assemblages of metallogenetic elements, they can be divided into four types (Cu-Zn, Cu-S, Pb-Zn-Cu and Pb-Zn types) with the Cu-Zn and Pb-Zn types being the most important ones. Research of isotopic chronology shows that the VMS deposits in Xinjiang were formed during the Proterozoic, Ordovician, Deovonian, Carboniferous and Permian periods and usually underwent multi-stage mineralization, especially the large-sized deposits usually have post-volcanic superimposed mineralization by tectonomagmatic or metamorphic hydrothermal metal-logenic fluids.

Arsenite Determination in Phosphate Media at Electroaggregated Gold Nanoparticle Deposits

Compared to bulk gold, highly reactive mesoporous gold film deposits are prepared on a boron‐doped diamond electrode surface. An electroaggregation process causing 5 nm diameter gold nanoparticles to deposit cathodically from aqueous solution is implemented to control the amount of mesoporous gold at the electrode surface. The resulting electrode surface is characterized by electron microscopy and by cyclic voltammetry.     

11th International Conference on Methods and Applications of Radioanalytical Chemistry (MARC XI) introduction

Nuclear terrorism has led to newer investigative methods for building national nuclear forensic libraries. The objective of this work was to resolve these signatures by applying the ICP-MS for isotope ratio (IR) analysis on uranium containing samples. Lead (Pb) isotope ratios for the studied gold mine has ²⁰⁷Pb/²⁰⁴Pb values between 13–20 and ²⁰⁶Pb/²⁰⁴Pb values ranging from 16–25, which confirm that the Carletonville gold fields are of uraninite detrital pyrite deposits. Trace elemental concentrations indicated a pyrite type of uranium deposit. Uranium in the deposit exhibits geochemical signatures of the radiogenic formations of the ore enhanced in ²⁰⁶Pb.

Dendrite structure of electrolytic gold deposited from molten chlorides

The structure of gold deposits produced by electrolysis of molten eutectic NaCl-KCl-CsCl at 500–700°C in an inert atmosphere is studied. The initial process on the gold cathode is the epitaxial growth of a layer up to 3 μm thick with a smoothed surface and a considerably later growth of grain boundaries. Gradually, on the protruding parts of deposit, the growth of dendrites starts. The dendrites are the major form of gold deposits. Typical gold dendrites are two-dimensional 2D〈112〉 and 2D〈112〉–〈110〉 and three-dimensional 3D〈100〉. Upon supplying air into the atmosphere above the melt at high current densities at the initial period there appears a powder comprising particles of a rounded twisted shape. Probable mechanisms leading to the formation of the “rounded” powder are discussed.     

Effects of retrograde-zoning of garnet on Sm-Nd isotopic dating of eclogite and oxygen isotopic disequilibrium between eclogitic minerals

The compositional zoning of the garnet in a strongly deformed eclogite from Raobazhaifoliated peridotite has been recognized. The CaO concentrations of the garnet are decreased fromthe core to the rim, while its MnO concentrations are increased, suggesting the retrograde origin ofsuch CaO-MnO zoning. The tie line of garnet+omphacite from this eclogite gives a Sm-Nd ageof (187±5) Ma, which is less significant than the Sm-Nd ages of (221±5)-(228±3) Ma and (210±6)-(214±6) Ma for ultrahigh-pressure eclogites in the southern Dabie zone and in the northernDabie zone, respectively. This younger Sm-Nd age could result from the ~(143)Nd/~(144)Nd ratio decreaseof the retrograde zone in the garnet. The δ~(80)O values of the garnet and omphacite show that theirfractionation values are less than the equilibrium fractionation value between the garnet and om-phacite at 500-900℃, which suggests an oxygen isotopic disequilibrium between them.     

TECTONIC FRAMEWORK OF THE CONTINENTAL BASEMENT OF SOUTHEAST CHINA

The chronology and tectonic evolution model of the continental basement in southeast China margin is an important debatable geological subject. The Cathaysia is shown in this paper to be in accordance with many geological facts and also with the age data obtained by multi-dating method. Its age has been determined to range from 900 to 2000 Ma. The age of the unconformity plane in the Cathaysia is 1400 Ma. The collision and suture between the Jiangnan oldland and the Cathaysia took place during the early Jinning Period. Toward Jiangxi, Hunan, Guangdong and Guangxi, these two continents gradually opened to form a residual oceanic basin. The sedimentation centre of the basin continuously migrated southwestward from the Jinning through the Caledonian Period, and finally closed in the Guangxi Movement and Dongwu Movement. The drift-rotation of the Cathaysia after the Jinning Period has been inferred.     

Regional organic geochemistry of host sediments of Palaeoproterozoic McArthur River Ore deposit, Australia

The 1,640 Ma HYC (Here’s Your Chance) deposit at McArthur River, Northern Territory, Australia, is one of the largest and least metamorphosed Proterozoic stratiform lead-zinc-silver deposits in the world. The thermal history of the deposit is a currently not well understood, both low and high temperature mechanisms have been proposed. From our study we were able to estimate (from both kerogen and bitumen thermal maturity indices which concur) the thermal maturity to be equivalent to Ro 1.1–2.0%, corresponding to the wet gas generation zone, with a maximum relatively low burial temperature range of 120–180 °C in the ore samples. Regionally, temperatures were not further constrained due to the complex and dynamic nature of the sedimentary environment. Contribution to the 65th Birthday Festschrift Issue.     

蒙古查干苏布尔加(Tsagaan Suvarga)大型斑岩型铜钼矿床含矿蚀变岩常量、微量和稀土元素地球化学特征及意义

蒙古Tsagaan Suvarga大型斑岩型铜钼矿床围岩蚀变类型主要有网脉状硅化、泥化、石英-绢云母化、钾硅酸岩化和青盘岩化。从热液成矿中心向外的矿化蚀变分带特征为含铜网脉状硅化蚀变带→含铜泥化带→含铜钼石英-绢云母化带→含铜钼钾硅酸岩化带→青盘岩化带。早期为钾硅酸岩化带,中期为石英-绢云母化和硅化,晚期为泥化带和碳酸盐化(方解石)。含矿蚀变岩明显受不同级次构造-裂隙带控制,北东向和北西向裂隙带可能是斑岩成矿热液体系的运移通道。随着接近循环热液成矿体系的成矿中心和硅化不断增强,REE,LREE和HREE含量降低,轻和重稀土元素之间分异程度增强;轻和重稀土元素之间分异程度与硅化-钾硅酸盐化之间关系具有指数关系。随着(Na2O K2O)含量逐渐增高,从负Eu异常→无Eu异常→正Eu异常→明显正Eu异常,说明Eu异常受循环热液成矿体系的碱交代程度控制明显,因此,正Eu异常、轻和重稀土元素之间分异程度明显及其相关围岩蚀变特征是寻找与蒙古Tsagaan Suvarga斑岩型铜钼矿床类似的找矿预测指标。

Texture of Electrolytic Platinum Deposited on Polycrystalline Gold

Platinum deposits of submicron thicknesses on polycrystalline gold substrates subjected to different thermal treatments and characterized by texture 200, 311, and 220 are characterized by methods of x-ray diffractometry and scanning electron microscopy. No deposits prepared in a potentiostatic mode exhibit a pronounced texture or a reliable correlation between a weak texture of a deposit and the substrate texture. Established is the difference of predominant directions of secondary nucleation–growth of deposit on neighboring grains of the substrate. The assumption that the deposit includes fragments the size of a few tens of micrometers with pronounced texture of different directions is substantiated.     

FT-IR microscopic imaging of calcified deposit of rotator cuff tendonitis: A pilot study and a randomised identification of the compositional components after extrusion from tendon to muscle

Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) microspectroscopy with mapping system was applied to identify and evaluate what difference in the distribution and compositional components of the calcified deposit of rotator cuff tendonitis after dislocation from tendon to muscle. A 49 year-old female patient suffered from severe shoulder pain was enrolled in this study. Diagnostic high-resolution ultrasonography (HRUS) was initially carried out to verify the calcific tendonitis. The calcified deposits were then examined by histopathologic assessment and FT-IR microspectroscopy. Diagnostic HRUS reveals that the calcified deposits were observed in the subscapularis tendon and infraspinatus muscle of the shoulder for this patient. FT-IR microspectroscopic imaging results clearly indicate that both IR spectra of the calcified deposits in tendon and muscle were almost the same as that of the IR spectrum of hydroxyapatite except the peak at 873 cm⁻¹. It is also found that the peak intensity at 1030 cm⁻¹ for tendon sample was somewhat more intense than that of the peak at 1031 cm⁻¹ for muscle sample, implying that the calcified sample in the tendon seems to be mature than that in the muscle. The second-derivative IR spectra of two calcified samples exhibit two specific sharp peaks at 880 and 872 cm⁻¹, indicating that the type A and type B carbonated apatites were markedly co-existed in both calcified deposits of tendon and muscle even the calcified deposit was dislocated from tendon to muscle. These carbonated apatites presented in the calcified deposits of either tendon or muscle of the shoulder were also consistent with the nodular or nodular nodular-cystic morphology of calcified plaque of the shoulder after HRUS examination.

为了解吉林夹皮沟金矿带的成矿期次,利用稀土元素的示踪性,对夹皮沟金矿带含矿石英脉、花岗岩及变质地层斜长角闪岩等21个样品进行稀土元素含量测定。测定结果表明,石英脉ΣREE=19.12×10-6～147.57×10-6,δEu=0.61～1.22,平均值0.89,具弱的负Eu异常;太古代花岗岩ΣREE=121.40×10-6～157.32×10-6,δEu=0.87～1.09;中生代花岗岩ΣREE=69.78×10-6～90.95×10-6,δEu=0.94～1.02,LREE/HREE比值分别为11.51～14.12和14.16～16.73,后者轻重稀土分馏程度略高于前者;变质围岩ΣREE=22.40×10-6～275.86×10-6,δEu=0.75～5.79,平均值2.30,具明显的正Eu异常。三者都具有轻稀土富集的平滑稀土配分模型。结合其区域地质背景、流体包裹体和稀土元素特征,得出夹皮沟金矿存在两期成矿作用,分别对应于太古代成矿花岗岩岩浆作用及中生代燕山期花岗岩岩浆作用。太古代首次富集成矿,中生代燕山期叠加成矿并扩大成矿规模,成矿时代分别为2475～2469 Ma和170～160 Ma;结合稀土特征研究及包裹体研究,成矿流体以岩浆热液流体为主,遭受轻微地层变质热液混染,中生代成矿流体混染作用更强烈。     

Application of Inductively Coupled Plasma-Atomic Emission Spectrometry/Mass Spectrometry to Phase Analysis of Gold in Gold Ores

Inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry/mass spectrometry (ICP-AES/MS) is a potentially powerful tool in chemical phase analysis of gold in batch mode, especially applicable to the low-grade gold ores with gold content of far below detection limit of the other methods, but it has not been used in gold phase analysis of gold ores. In this work, three types of typical gold deposits (altered rock type, quartz vein type, and microscopic disseminated type) and national standard reference materials of gold ores were used to establish and validate a method for gold phase analysis of gold ores using ICP-AES/MS. The optimum conditions of phase analysis were determined, including the sample granularity and preparation procedures, separation absorbent, pretreatment procedures of various phases of gold and optimized instrument parameters. Evaluation of the optimized method showed that this method had acceptable precision (RSD: 1.1%–10.6%) and accuracy (relative error, RE: 0.5%–6.3%), and the detection results of gold in ores were comparable with those obtained using the hydroquinone volumetric method-extraction flame atomic absorption spectrometry (VOL-AAS) and graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry (GFAAS) methods. The sum content of gold of the 4 phases (free gold, F_Au; linked gold, L_Au; sulphide-bearing gold, S_Au; and other mineral-bearing gold, A_Au) conformed to the total gold content and was consistent with the results of rock-mineral identification. The proposed method had a low detection limit (0.30 ng g^–1) and wide linear range (5.0 ng mL^–1–20.00 μg mL^–1). It is a simple, rapid, and efficient method for gold phase analysis in batch form.
