Papers on methodology by G. K. Gilbert from the late 19th century have attracted geologists' attention into the 21st century. Gilbert's memoir on the Henry Mountains includes two mechanical models based on physical theory found in W. J. M. Rankine's Manual of Applied Mechanics. Rankine's analysis of the stratification of hydrostatic fluids of different densities corresponds closely to Gilbert's Model #1 applied to magmatic intrusions. However, the sedimentary rocks of the Henry Mountains are not fluids, and though Model #1 failed Gilbert's tests, he did not reject it. Model #2 replaced the flexure over the laccolith with an encircling fault, enabling Gilbert to analyze laccolith formation using balanced parallel forces. His tests of Model #2 were successful and led to a physical relationship between the diameter and depth of laccoliths. We modernize Gilbert's methodology using the equations of motion for the material continuum provided by A. -L. Cauchy's First and Second Laws. These apply to rocks that deform and fracture as brittle solids, and those that deform plastically as ductile solids, as well as to magmas that flow as viscous fluids. This egalitarian functionality means that: 1) most geological structures are candidates for models based on Cauchy's Laws; 2) geologists must specify the constitutive properties of the deforming rocks or magmas; and 3) these models satisfy the conservation laws of mass and momentum. This modern methodology provides structural geologists with an on-going and self-correcting process of scientific investigation as new field and laboratory data accumulate and new hypotheses are tested.
吉尔伯特(G. K. Gilbert) 19世纪末关于方法论的论文在21世纪引起了地质学家的关注。吉尔伯特关于亨利山脉的回忆录包括两个基于W. J. M.兰金应用力学手册中发现的物理理论的力学模型。Rankine对不同密度静流体分层的分析与Gilbert对岩浆侵入的模型1非常相似。然而,亨利山脉的沉积岩不是流体,尽管模型1未能通过吉尔伯特的测试,但他并没有拒绝它。模型2用环绕断层取代了泥质岩上的弯曲,使Gilbert能够使用平衡的平行力来分析泥质岩的形成。他对模型2的测试是成功的,并得出了冰石直径和深度之间的物理关系。我们利用A. -L.提供的物质连续体的运动方程使吉尔伯特的方法论现代化。柯西第一和第二定律。这些理论适用于易变形和断裂的岩石(如脆性固体),塑性变形的岩石(如延性固体),以及流动的岩浆(如粘性流体)。这种平均主义的功能意味着:1)大多数地质构造都是基于柯西定律的模型的候选者;2)地质学家必须详细说明正在变形的岩石或岩浆的本构性质;3)这些模型满足质量和动量守恒定律。随着新领域和实验室数据的积累和新假设的检验,这种现代方法为构造地质学家提供了一种持续的、自我纠正的科学调查过程。

Influence of preexisting damage on dynamic fragmentation behavior of sandstone 先存损伤对砂岩动态破碎行为的影响

Preexisting damage in upper crustal rocks modifies their constitutive behavior and reduces strength, altering fragmentation during near-surface dynamic loading processes such as earthquake rupture, impact cratering, and landslides. To investigate the influence of preexisting damage on brittle fragmentation under these conditions, we study the behavior of heat-treated sandstone under dynamic tensile loading. Heat-treatments induce microfractures and mineralogical changes, simulating preexisting damage that can exist due to processes related to tectonic deformation, exhumation, and faulting-induced damage. A modified sample configuration for a Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) apparatus is used to induce tensile fragmentation in Berea Sandstone samples heat-treated at 250 °C, 450 °C, 650 °C, and 850 °C, and we analyze deformation in post-mortem samples using optical and scanning electron microscopy. Permanent strain during experiments is accommodated by the formation of mode-I fractures, dilation bands, and pore space expansion that can result in localized porosity increases of up to 25 %. Tensile strength increases with heat-treatments up to 450 °C and then decreases for heat-treatments at temperatures above the α-β-quartz transition. Elastic properties of Berea Sandstone also change with heat-treatments, and in a single orientation the Poisson's Ratio becomes negative at heat-treatments above 250 °C. Whereas fractures induced by SHPB experiments are primarily intergranular for sandstone heat-treated at temperatures up to 450 °C, intragranular fractures become more prevalent in sandstone heat-treated at 650 °C and 850 °C. Intragranular cracks emanating from grain contacts are observed in samples loaded under tension, but the mechanism of their formation is different than morphologically similar “Hertzian” fractures formed under compression. We propose a model for contact emanated tensile fractures formed under a remote tensile stress field that resemble Hertzian fractures formed under compressive loading. Finally, we compare our experimentally damaged sample to naturally deformed sandstones from the damage zone of the San Andreas Fault and Serpent Mound Impact Structure in Ohio, and we show distinct features that are likely indicative of brittle damage formed under macroscopic tensile loading. Our results have implications for dynamic tensile brittle fragmentation of sandstone with preexisting damage during earthquake rupture, landslides, and impact cratering. Importantly, these results provide new insights for linking dynamic loading conditions and processes with field observations of brittle damage in sandstone.
上地壳岩石先前存在的损伤改变了它们的本构行为,降低了强度,改变了近地表动态加载过程(如地震破裂、撞击坑和滑坡)中的破碎。为了研究在这些条件下预先存在的损伤对脆性破碎的影响,我们研究了热处理砂岩在动态拉伸载荷下的行为。热处理引起微裂缝和矿物学变化,模拟了由于构造变形、挖掘和断层引起的损伤而可能存在的预先存在的损伤。采用一种改进的霍普金森压力杆(SHPB)装置,对经过250°C、450°C、650°C和850°C热处理的Berea砂岩样品进行拉伸破碎,并使用光学和扫描电子显微镜分析死后样品的变形。实验过程中的永久应变通过i型裂缝的形成、扩张带和孔隙空间的扩张来适应,这可能导致局部孔隙度增加高达25%。拉伸强度随热处理温度升高而升高,但在α-β-石英相变温度以上时,拉伸强度降低。Berea砂岩的弹性特性也随着热处理而改变,在250℃以上的热处理中,单一方向的泊松比变为负值。在温度高达450°C的砂岩中,SHPB实验诱导的裂缝主要是晶间裂缝,而在650°C和850°C的砂岩中,晶内裂缝更为普遍。在拉伸加载的试样中观察到由晶粒接触产生的晶内裂纹,但它们的形成机制不同于在压缩下形成的形态相似的“赫兹”裂纹。我们提出了一个在远端拉应力场下形成的接触源拉伸裂缝模型,该模型类似于在压缩载荷下形成的赫兹裂缝。最后,我们将实验损伤样品与来自俄亥俄州圣安德烈亚斯断层和蛇丘冲击构造损伤带的自然变形砂岩进行了比较,我们显示出明显的特征,可能表明在宏观拉伸载荷下形成的脆性损伤。我们的研究结果对地震破裂、山体滑坡和撞击坑中预先存在损伤的砂岩的动态拉伸脆性破碎具有启示意义。重要的是,这些结果为将动态加载条件和过程与砂岩脆性损伤的现场观测联系起来提供了新的见解。

Understanding the rheological properties of the continental lower crust (CLC), particularly its response to water, is vital for comprehending various geodynamic processes within the Earth. In this study, two groups of clinopyroxene–plagioclase aggregates, which serve as representative samples of the CLC, were hot pressed in a Paterson gas-medium apparatus with “as is” and additional water. Subsequently, deformation tests were conducted on the hot-pressed samples in the same apparatus, under a confining pressure of 300 MPa, temperature of 1173–1423 K, and strain rates of 6 × 10−6 to 2 × 10−4 s−1. Mechanical data revealed that axial stresses between 15 and 464 MPa and total accumulated finite strain values between 12 % and 20 %. The resulting mechanical data were analyzed and fitted to a flow law, yielding a stress exponent (n) of 3.6 ± 0.6 and activation energy (Q) of 504 ± 85 kJ/mol for the “as is” samples, and n = 3.7 ± 1.4 and Q = 347 ± 48 kJ/mol for water-added samples. Microstructural observations revealed that the deformed samples exhibited a shape-preferred orientation (SPO) and crystallographic preferred orientation (CPO) with subgrain boundaries in coarse-grained domains (constituting ∼80 vol%), indicating that the primary deformation mechanism is dislocation creep. Additionally, the presence of melt, neoformed phases (olivine + orthopyroxene) and abundant fine-grained particles (<10 μm) all show subsidiary dissolution-precipitation creep, and the subsidiary dissolution-precipitation creep played an important role under higher temperature and higher water content conditions. The overall reduction in average grain size resulted in deformation under the grain-size-sensitive creep regime, leading to a notable decrease in sample strength. Overall, these findings confirm the “jelly sandwich” concept of the continental lithosphere by showing that the lower crust is relatively weaker than the upper crust and uppermost mantle.
了解大陆下地壳(CLC)的流变特性,特别是它对水的响应,对于理解地球内部的各种地球动力学过程至关重要。在本研究中,两组斜辉石-斜长石聚集体作为CLC的代表性样品,在Paterson气-介质装置中以“原样”和额外的水进行热压。随后,在同一设备上对热压试样进行了变形试验,围压为300 MPa,温度为1173 ~ 1423 K,应变速率为6 × 10−6 ~ 2 × 10−4 s−1。力学数据显示,轴向应力在15 ~ 464 MPa之间,总累积有限应变值在12% ~ 20%之间。对所得力学数据进行分析并拟合,得到原状试样的应力指数(n)为3.6±0.6,活化能(Q)为504±85 kJ/mol,加水试样的n = 3.7±1.4,Q = 347±48 kJ/mol。显微组织观察表明,变形后的样品在粗晶区域表现出形状优先取向(SPO)和晶体优先取向(CPO),并具有亚晶界(约占80%),表明变形的主要机制是位错蠕变。此外,熔体、新形成相(橄榄石+正辉石)和丰富的细晶颗粒(<10 μm)均表现出辅助溶蚀-析出蠕变,且在高温高含水量条件下,辅助溶蚀-析出蠕变发挥了重要作用。平均晶粒尺寸的整体减小导致了晶粒尺寸敏感蠕变状态下的变形,导致试样强度显著降低。总的来说,这些发现证实了大陆岩石圈的“果冻三明治”概念,表明下地壳相对弱于上地壳和上地幔。

Thermochronological and magnetic advances on faulting processes: An introduction 断层过程的热年代学和磁学研究进展
IF 2.6 2区 地球科学 Q2 GEOSCIENCES, MULTIDISCIPLINARY Pub Date : 2025-06-18 DOI: 10.1016/j.jsg.2025.105491

This special volume presents recent advances in the use of thermochronology and rock magnetism to advance our understanding of faulting processes, integrating insights from diverse tectonic settings. Thermochronology, particularly low-temperature systems such as (U-Th)/He, fission tracks and argon dating, constrains the timing of fault initiation, slip, and reactivation, revealing links between deformation, exhumation, and surface processes. Magnetic methods, including anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility and anisotropy of anhysteretic remanent magnetization, serve as sensitive, non-destructive tools to detect mineralogical transformations caused by frictional heating, chemical alteration, and strain localization. Together, these approaches capture the thermal, structural, and fluid-related evolution of fault zones at multiple spatial and temporal scales. The volume draws from contributions presented at the 2023 American Geophysical Union Annual Meeting and includes studies on the Tibetan Plateau, the Pyrenees, and seismogenic carbonate faults in Israel and Italy. These seven contributions highlight the integration of structural geology, geochronology, and rock physics in deciphering fault zone histories and dynamic weakening processes. Collectively, the volume demonstrates the growing importance of multidisciplinary approaches in assessing seismic hazards and reconstructing Earth's crustal deformation history.
这本特别的书介绍了最近在使用热年代学和岩石磁性来推进我们对断裂过程的理解的进展,整合了来自不同构造环境的见解。热年代学,特别是低温系统,如(U-Th)/He、裂变径迹和氩定年,限制了断层起始、滑动和再激活的时间,揭示了变形、挖掘和地表过程之间的联系。磁性方法,包括磁化率的各向异性和非滞后剩余磁化的各向异性,是检测摩擦加热、化学蚀变和应变局部化引起的矿物学转变的灵敏、非破坏性工具。总之,这些方法在多个空间和时间尺度上捕捉了断裂带的热、构造和流体相关演化。该卷摘自2023年美国地球物理联合会年会上提交的论文,包括对青藏高原、比利牛斯山脉以及以色列和意大利的发震碳酸盐岩断层的研究。这七个贡献突出了构造地质学、地质年代学和岩石物理学在破译断裂带历史和动态弱化过程中的整合。总的来说,本书证明了多学科方法在评估地震灾害和重建地球地壳变形史方面日益重要。

Inter-granular damage in experimentally deformed rock-salt investigated by X-ray micro-tomography: confining pressure and brine effects 用x射线微层析成像研究实验变形岩盐的粒间损伤:围压和盐水效应

We have investigated the mechanical behaviour of synthetic rock-salt during compression tests using in situ X-ray micro computed tomography (XR-μCT). Samples were deformed under controlled strain rate in an X-ray semi-transparent triaxial cell adapted to X-ray tomography.
We were interested in the development of micro damage in relation to the stress state and the presence or absence of brine. For that purpose, we produced by powder compaction in œdometric cells two types of materials with different amounts of water. One is considered “laboratory dry” and the other is considered “water saturated”. Both materials exhibit similar mean grain size (c.a. 200 μm). Both types of samples were deformed at uniaxial and triaxial conditions (15 MPa confining pressure), at room temperature and constant displacement rate (1 μm/s).
The results show that the dominant damage mechanisms correspond to the progressive development of diffuse inter-granular micro-cracking. This can be explained by the strong anisotropy in the crystal plasticity of NaCl, which results in local plastic strain incompatibilities between neighboring grains in the polycrystalline rock-salt. Conversely, the development of micro-crack damage is strongly reduced by both confining pressure and presence of brine. Natural Leine rock salt samples bearing inter-crystalline brine and tested under similar conditions show similar trends as regards inter-granular micro-damage. We suggest that the development of inter-granular micro-cracking is suppressed or retarded in the presence of brine thanks to dissolution-precipitation processes, which in addition to the well-known healing effect may also reduce the local plastic strain incompatibilities.
我们使用原位x射线微计算机断层扫描(XR-μCT)研究了合成岩盐在压缩试验中的力学行为。样品在适应x射线断层成像的x射线半透明三轴细胞中在控制应变速率下变形。我们感兴趣的是微损伤的发展与应力状态和盐水的存在或不存在有关。为此,我们在œdometric细胞中通过粉末压实生产了两种不同水量的材料。一种被认为是“实验室干燥”,另一种被认为是“水饱和”。两种材料的平均晶粒尺寸相似(约200 μm)。两种试样分别在单轴和三轴条件下(围压为15 MPa)、室温和恒定位移速率(1 μm/s)下进行变形。结果表明,弥漫性晶间微裂纹的逐渐发展是主要的损伤机制。这可以解释为NaCl的晶体塑性具有很强的各向异性,导致多晶岩盐中相邻晶粒之间存在局部塑性应变不相容。相反,围压和盐水的存在会大大降低微裂纹损伤的发展。含晶间卤水的天然莱茵岩盐样品和在相似条件下的测试结果显示出相似的颗粒间微损伤趋势。我们认为,由于卤水的溶解-沉淀过程抑制或延缓了颗粒间微裂纹的发展,这除了众所周知的愈合作用外,还可能减少局部塑性应变不相容。

A simple workflow is presented for the graphical generation of structure contours for plunging cylindrical folds. Conventional plunge projection techniques are used together with extant section construction methods to complete fold profiles. Additional steps that, in effect, reverse parts of the plunge projection techniques transfer information from a fold profile plane on to horizontal planes of known elevations to generate structure contours. Sets of structure contours can be obtained for folded contacts and their axial surfaces. These structure contours can be used in conjunction with topographic contours to constrain the outcrop traces folded contacts and axial surfaces in areas of irregular topography. As part of the procedure, crest, trough and hinge points identified in a fold profile plane can be projected on to a geological map in their correct positions and elevations as part of the procedure. The workflow was designed for the frequently encountered case of a partially mapped trace of a folded contact surrounded by a collection of orientation data.
提出了一种简单的下陷圆柱褶皱结构轮廓图形生成的工作流程。利用传统的投影技术和现有的剖面构造方法来完成褶皱剖面。实际上,与跳水投影技术相反的其他步骤将信息从褶皱剖面平面转移到已知高程的水平面上,以生成结构轮廓。可以得到折叠接触及其轴表面的结构轮廓。这些构造等高线可以与地形等高线结合使用,以约束不规则地形区域的露头轨迹、褶皱接触面和轴面。作为程序的一部分,在褶皱剖面平面上确定的波峰、波谷和铰点可以投影到地质图上,并在其正确的位置和高度上作为程序的一部分。该工作流是针对经常遇到的折叠触点的部分映射轨迹被一组方向数据包围的情况而设计的。

40Ar/39Ar dating of poly-orogenic rocks: an example from the Cap de Creus peninsula (Eastern Pyrenees, Spain) 多造山岩的40Ar/39Ar定年:以西班牙东比利牛斯山的Creus半岛为例

A new 40Ar/39Ar study has been conducted on variably deformed rocks from the Cap de Creus massif in the Eastern Pyrenees with a focus on NW-SE crosscutting low-grade shear zones. Outside the shear zones, in the unsheared low pressure - high temperature Variscan metamorphic rocks (P∼3,5 kbar, T∼635 °C), mica porphyroblasts yield partially reset 40Ar/39Ar ages of 240 Ma to 150 Ma. In shear zones (P∼5-5,3 kbar, T∼435–505 °C) from the Northern Shear Belt, synkinematic fine-grained muscovite provides a crystallization age of 44-42 Ma while inherited clastic muscovite has ages between 175 and 100 Ma depending on grain size. In the Southern Shear Belt, magmatic biotite from granodioritic protomylonites preserves small amount of inherited argon while synkinematic newly crystallized metamorphic micas from mylonites and ultramylonites have crystallization ages between 44 and 38 Ma. Therefore, this step-heating and in situ laser probe 40Ar/39Ar study of micas from unsheared Variscan rocks and mylonitic to ultramylonitic rocks show a conspicuous relationship between the deformation gradient, the amount of syntectonic (re)crystallization, the change in mineral composition, the resetting of Variscan mica chronometers and the record of Eocene crystallization ages by newly formed synkinematic micas. It is suggested that low-grade shear zones in the poly-orogenic Cap de Creus massif were active during the main period of Eocene convergence of the Iberian and European plates and emplacement of the south-verging crustal nappes. We propose that such NW-SE mylonitic structures developed as R′-Riedel faults within a huge system of NE-SW trending crustal faults and that they may represent onshore precursors of offshore transfer faults related to the early opening of the Gulf of Lion.
在东比利牛斯山脉的Cap de Creus地块进行了一项新的40Ar/39Ar变形岩石研究,重点研究了NW-SE横切低品位剪切带。在剪切带外,在未剪切的低压-高温Variscan变质岩(P ~ 3,5 kbar, T ~ 635°C)中,云母斑岩产生部分重置的40Ar/39Ar年龄,为240 ~ 150 Ma。在北剪切带的剪切带(P ~ 5-5,3 kbar, T ~ 435-505°C)中,同动细粒白云母的结晶年龄为44-42 Ma,而继承碎屑白云母的结晶年龄在175 - 100 Ma之间,具体取决于晶粒大小。在南剪切带,花岗闪长原长玄武岩的岩浆黑云母保留了少量的继承氩,而与之同步的糜棱岩和超长玄武岩的新结晶变质云母的结晶年龄在44 ~ 38 Ma之间。因此,对未剪切的瓦里斯坎岩和糜伦岩到超长岩云母进行的步进加热和原位激光探测40Ar/39Ar研究表明,变形梯度、同构造(再)结晶量、矿物组成变化、瓦里斯坎云母时计重设与新形成的同运动云母记录始新世结晶年龄之间存在明显的关系。研究表明,在伊比利亚和欧洲板块辐合及南向地壳推覆构造侵位的始新世主要时期,克雷斯帽地块内的低等级剪切带处于活跃状态。我们认为这种北西-东向糜棱岩构造在一个巨大的NE-SW向地壳断裂体系中发育为R ' -Riedel断裂,它们可能是与狮子湾早期开放有关的海上转移断裂的陆上前兆。

Simulation and modelling of an argon age spectrum from biotite in the Yilgarn Craton immediately adjacent to the Albany–Fraser Orogen, Western Australia 澳大利亚西部紧邻阿尔巴尼-弗雷泽造山带的伊尔冈克拉通黑云母氩年龄谱的模拟和建模

Here we further show how modelling based on argon geochronology can be used to develop constraints as to the nature of the temperature–time path followed by an individual sample in the natural environment, by demonstrating how to estimate palaeodepth, and its variation through time. The method is of general application to the interpretation of any biotite age spectrum with a well-developed age plateau, as long as there is relatively minor loss of radiogenic argon evident in the initial steps, and as long as those initial steps are not masked by the release of excess argon. Accurate simulation relies on how well the morphology of the measured age spectrum has been delineated, especially in the initial heating steps. The requisite detail depends on precise control of temperature variation during step-heating, and on the aliquot having sufficient mass to allow many steps. Here we numerically model the morphology of a single age spectrum produced by step-heating an aliquot of biotite grains separated from a single sample from the Kalgoorlie Terrane, in the Yilgarn Craton, Western Australia. The sample location is less than 15 km from the inferred location of the fault that separates the Archean Yilgarn Craton from the Albany-Fraser Orogen (AFO). Potentially therefore the age spectrum should reflect thermal disturbance related to the juxtaposition of the AFO against the Yilgarn Craton during the Mesoproterozoic. The absence of significant effects implies that the high-grade portions of the AFO had cooled prior to their juxtaposition, and/or that the sample from the Yilgarn Craton was already at such shallow crustal levels that it was little affected by any thrusting orthogonal to the margin during juxtaposition.
在这里,我们通过演示如何估计古深度及其随时间的变化,进一步展示了如何使用基于氩气地质年代学的建模来开发自然环境中单个样品所遵循的温度-时间路径的性质的约束。该方法一般适用于任何具有发育良好的年龄平台的黑云母年龄谱的解释,只要在初始阶段有相对较小的明显的放射成因氩的损失,并且只要这些初始阶段没有被过量氩的释放所掩盖。准确的模拟依赖于所测年龄谱的形态描述,特别是在初始加热步骤中。必要的细节取决于在分步加热过程中对温度变化的精确控制,以及等温物有足够的质量来进行多次分步加热。在这里,我们数值模拟了一个单一年龄谱的形态,该谱是由从澳大利亚西部伊尔加恩克拉通Kalgoorlie地块的单一样品中分离出来的黑云母颗粒的阶梯式加热产生的。样品位置距离太古代伊尔冈克拉通与奥尔巴尼-弗雷泽造山带(AFO)分离的断层推断位置不到15公里。因此,年龄谱可能反映了中元古代与伊尔冈克拉通并置有关的热扰动。没有明显的影响意味着AFO的高级部分在并置之前已经冷却,并且/或者来自Yilgarn克拉通的样品已经处于如此浅的地壳水平,以至于在并置期间它几乎没有受到与边缘正交的任何推力的影响。

Porosity and pore and throat size distributions in carbonate-rich salt caprock of halite diapirs: effect of deformation and geochemical processes 岩盐底辟富碳酸盐盐盖层孔隙度及孔喉大小分布:变形和地球化学作用的影响

Microscopic porosity of salt caprock on two salt diapirs, Karmostaj and Siah Taq in southern Iran, was studied on a range of samples that represent the major lithological types of salt caprock in the area: the gypsum matrix-supported and clast-supported dissolution breccia, the dolomite and limestone stringers of the Hormuz Formation and gypsum mylonites. Mercury intrusion porosimetry alongside the microstructural analysis with digital image analysis of resin-saturated thin-sections was employed and revealed a large variation in porosity of 2–35 % and in the median throat size of 0.1–50 μm. The highest porosity values are associated with vuggy dolomites and limestones interspersed by a dense network of gypsum veins and gypsum matrix-supported breccia with low degree of deformation. In contrast, low porosity is linked with strongly deformed gypsum matrix-supported breccias and dark micritic carbonate stringers that were not interspersed with the gypsum. Large variation in porosity and pore throat size and pore shape is attributed to 1) metasomatization of carbonate to gypsum due to reaction of H2SO4 with carbonate after oxidation of H2S or elemental sulfur in caprock and subsequent dissolution of gypsum in metasomatized carbonates creating the abundant vuggy porosity and 2) deformation of the caprock that was responsible for recrystallization and mechanical closure of pores in the frontal, downslope margins of both reactivated diapirs. While the deformed and gypsum-rich parts of the diapir caprocks (∼30–60 % of caprock on the diapirs) are associated with estimated permeabilities of ∼10−16 - 10−15 m2, caprocks in central parts of reactivated diapirs with less deformed caprock (undeformed gypsum- and clast-supported breccia) display higher permeabilities ranging between ∼10−15 m2 and 10−13 m2.
对伊朗南部Karmostaj和Siah Taq两个盐底喷井上盐盖层的微观孔隙度进行了研究,这些样品代表了该地区盐盖层的主要岩性类型:石膏基质支撑和碎屑支撑的溶蚀角砾岩、霍尔木兹组的白云岩和石灰石串以及石膏糜棱岩。采用压汞孔隙度法结合显微结构分析和数字图像分析对树脂饱和薄片进行分析,发现孔隙度变化较大,介于2 ~ 35%之间,喉道中位尺寸为0.1 ~ 50 μm。孔隙度最高的是溶洞状白云岩和灰岩,其间穿插着密集的石膏脉网和石膏基质支撑角砾岩,变形程度较低。相反,低孔隙度与强烈变形的石膏基质支撑角砾岩和未与石膏穿插的暗泥晶碳酸盐条带有关。孔隙度、孔喉大小和孔隙形状的巨大变化是由于:1)碳酸盐岩在H2S或单质硫氧化后与碳酸盐岩发生H2SO4的反应,碳酸盐岩向石膏发生了变质,随后石膏在变质的碳酸盐岩中溶解,形成了丰富的孔洞状孔隙;2)两种活化底辟前缘和下坡边缘的盖层变形导致了孔隙的再结晶和机械封闭。虽然底辟盖层的变形和富石膏部分(约占底辟盖层的30 - 60%)的渗透率估计为~ 10 - 16 - 10 - 15 m2,但在活化底辟的中心部分,变形较小的盖层(未变形的石膏和碎屑支撑角砾岩)的渗透率较高,介于~ 10 - 15 m2和10 - 13 m2之间。

This study comprehensively analyzes for the first time the present-day deformation of the Cuitzeo Lake basin in central México, its implications for crustal extension rates, and its accommodation through normal and oblique faulting and magma intrusions. We used a 2.2 mm/yr velocity from a permanent geodetic survey (2008–2023, TLALOCNet) to evaluate the crustal extension in the Cuitzeo Lake basin. We estimated an extension from normal frictional faulting and magmatic processes by comparing the geodetic data with geological data since 8 Ma, derived from regional fault slip rates, magma volumes, and dike intrusions. Our results reveal that the deformation here is dominantly accommodated by normal frictional faulting processes (up to 55 %) and partly by magmatic processes (41 %), of which 11 % is associated with volcanic eruptions and 89 % with arrested magmatic intrusions. These results confirm that the Cuitzeo Lake basin is relatively mature, where frequent interactions occur between faults and the magmatic system.
本文首次综合分析了青海中部奎策湖盆地现今的变形特征及其对地壳伸展速率的影响,并通过正、斜断裂和岩浆侵入对其进行调节。我们使用来自永久大地测量(2008-2023,TLALOCNet)的2.2 mm/yr速度来评估奎切奥湖盆地的地壳伸展。通过比较8 Ma以来的大地测量数据和地质数据,我们估计了正常摩擦断裂和岩浆作用的扩展,这些数据来自区域断层滑动速率、岩浆体积和岩脉侵入。结果表明,该地区的形变主要由正常的摩擦断裂作用调节(占55%),部分由岩浆作用调节(占41%),其中11%与火山喷发有关,89%与岩浆侵入有关。这些结果证实了奎策湖盆地相对成熟,断层与岩浆体系相互作用频繁。
