陕南寒武纪早期仙女洞组生物礁灰岩微相序列

扬子地台北缘在寒武纪筇竹寺期—沧浪铺期出现海退,该时期的仙女洞组属浅海碳酸盐岩与碎屑岩的混合沉积单元,分布于陕西南部及四川北部。陕南南郑福成和碑坝剖面组成完整仙女洞组序列,其中包含8期生物礁相单元。单层礁体为米级厚度,形态特征显示丘状隆起或平缓延伸。水体的清澈度、深度以及水动力强度变化对各期礁相单元生长的控制力度因时而异,陆源碎屑数次侵入导致海水浑浊度增高,点断了礁体生长。礁灰岩微相类型包括钙质微生物粘结岩、古杯-钙质微生物绑结岩、古杯漂砾-砾屑灰岩、粒泥状-泥粒状灰岩以及泥状灰岩。早期礁灰岩中钙质微生物粘结岩含量丰富,之后古杯绑结岩在礁灰岩构建中具有丰度增长的趋势,且上部礁灰岩层位中不规则古杯占主要地位。仙女洞组沉积晚期海水变浅和水动力条件增强,常见漂砾灰岩和砾屑灰岩。     

陕南川北志留系特列奇阶宁强组礁相中的微生物岩和钙藻

分布于扬子区西北缘宁强-广元地区志留系宁强组以约三千米厚的浅水相泥页岩,海相红层夹灰岩为特征,部分灰岩层段中发育生物礁,通过对礁灰岩的微相分析表明,菌藻类可通过四种方式参与造礁过程;1）叠层石;2）凝块岩;3）核形石;4）钙藻碎屑堆积,其中以叠层石和凝块岩最为常见,它们对灰泥基质起显著的粘结作用。而核形石和钙藻相对较少,有的叠层石出现于礁顶相并作为后生动物骨架岩造礁衰减的标志。     

塔里木板块塔中区上奥陶统良里塔格组的生物礁类型

塔里木板块塔中Ⅰ号坡折带附近上奥陶统良里塔格组取芯井段中可识别多种生物礁灰岩类型,包括珊瑚骨架/障积岩、海绵骨架/绑结岩、苔藓虫绑结岩、钙藻障积岩、钙质菌藻障积/绑结岩等礁灰岩类,藉此可归纳出珊瑚礁、珊瑚-钙藻礁、层孔虫礁、层孔虫-钙藻礁、珊瑚-层孔虫-钙藻礁、苔藓虫礁丘、钙藻礁丘、灰泥丘和微生物礁等生物建造单元。这些礁体的时空分布模式与古环境分异相关联,纵向上具有灰泥丘向珊瑚-层孔虫-钙藻礁至苔藓虫礁丘和钙藻礁的群落结构更替趋势;空间分布则向台地北缘,即I号坡折带延伸显示由低能带灰泥丘向高能带珊瑚-层孔虫-钙藻礁的相变,而且高能带珊瑚-层孔虫-钙藻主体礁和环其周缘相对低能带的钙藻礁丘、灰泥丘等在一定范围内构成造礁群落结构分异。     

宁强广元地区志留系宁强组灰岩的微相研究

志留纪时期在扬子地台西北缘宁强湾沉积的宁强组,是一套巨厚的泥页岩夹小型局限台地相灰岩。局限台地相灰岩的沉积类型主要有生物礁、生物层和灰泥丘三种,按岩性可分为灰泥岩、颗粒岩、障积岩、粘结岩、格架岩、漂浮岩、灰砾岩等类型。岩石的微相分析和宏观相带的识别相结合,能指示各种沉积类型不同部位的环境和形成机制。     

黔西北桐梓水坝塘下奥陶统桐梓组碳酸盐岩微相

黔西北桐梓水坝塘剖面下奥陶统特马豆克阶桐梓组沉积时位于上扬子区陆表海极浅水区,抑或部分时段存在盐度异常的云坪,与下伏寒武系第四统娄山关群和上覆下奥陶统红花园组均呈整合接触。桐梓组岩性多为灰色、深灰色灰岩,后生动物大化石和陆源碎屑岩含量显然偏低。常见内碎屑滩相堆积,偶见含砾屑滩,砾屑边缘弱磨圆,属非强水流的近源搬运颗粒类型;少许鲕粒灰岩层。微生物岩颗粒丰富并作为碳酸盐岩的主要供物来源,部分微生物群落形成的细纹层粘结岩属小型叠层石礁相单元,表明在贵阳乌当和桐梓红花园剖面的叠层石可北延超过100km到达水坝塘地区,构建了狭长的叠层石礁相带。黔西北桐梓组部分碳酸盐岩层中出现单一而广适性的钙质微生物造礁群落,与特马豆克阶全球生物礁演化发展阶段相吻合,在奥陶纪生物大辐射的初期,生物礁具有地理分布局限、低生物多样性以及钙质微生物占主导地位的特征。     

湖南新邵巨口铺泥盆纪棋梓桥组的层孔虫及其造礁特征

湖南新邵巨口铺泥盆纪生物礁出现在中泥盆统棋梓桥组中上部,根据沉积特征的差异,礁体分上下两部分;下部成层性明显,以厚层生物格架灰岩为主;上部以灰白色块状徽晶一亮晶灰岩为主,灰岩成层性很差,生物也较单调。礁体可划分8种沉积微相,其发展过程有明显阶段性。这些阶段性与礁体群落的发展和演替相联系。它是开阔浅海与台地浅海相变过渡带上的一种层状礁。礁体内有丰富的层孔虫,计16属近40种。该文选择了较为常见、保存较好的10属18种进行了描述和研究。     

新疆塔里木中央隆起区中2井上奥陶统良里塔格组礁滩沉积相和测井参数

塔里木中央隆起区中2井位于塔中南坡台缘带,上奥陶统凯迪阶良里塔格组频繁出现浅水粒屑滩沉积,以及由蓝藻、钙藻兼以少量珊瑚、苔藓虫等造礁生物以不等含量分别构成生物障积或粘结型礁灰岩,棘皮类、腕足类和三叶虫等壳相生物碎屑丰富。可分出数层典型的生物礁、滩组合序列,总体显示为原地生长和近源搬运的生物礁滩复合体建造。环境的动能条件略有变化,但皆属浪基面之上的沉积深度。礁、滩储层形成模式主要受于沉积相带、成岩改造的控制,储层以生屑灰岩、藻粘结灰岩、障积灰岩及砂屑灰岩为主,储集空间类型包括次生溶蚀孔隙、晶洞与裂缝,同时伴随少量的白云岩化作用,且孔隙以深埋藏溶蚀成因为主,次生胶结作用也十分强烈,礁相储层潜力好于滩相。     

礁滩分类以及在岩芯中的识别

百余年来涉及生物礁滩的有关论著,从对具体例证的剖析到时空模式的综述,催生着各种分类方案的出台。生物礁滩纵横展布上显示生态环境的相变,礁一滩灰岩具有非均一性,其岩石学特征能指示其生态群落类型。在岩芯中能识别出与各类礁一滩在成因上密切相关的岩性段时,勾勒礁滩体生态单元序列在一定程度上还是可行的。     

川西北上三叠统卡尼阶马鞍塘组中部硅质海绵礁

川西北地区绵竹汉旺青岩沟、观音崖以及安县雎水剖面三叠纪卡尼期马鞍塘组硅质海绵礁群生长于碳酸盐岩缓坡带,可划分为礁基、礁核、礁翼、礁间沉积等亚相,据内碎屑含量、化石埋葬学特征以及灰泥等基质比例厘定岩相和群落特征。礁灰岩主要为海绵格架岩和钙质微生物凝块岩,附礁生物类型包括有孔虫类、双壳类、棘皮类、介形类、腕足类、粗枝藻类、钙质海绵等。马鞍塘组海绵礁终结之后上覆黑色页岩沉积。晚三叠世卡尼期气候骤变在全球生物圈引发广泛的效应,海平面升降速率相对海绵礁的生长速率较大,加之构造活动频繁,大火山岩省集中爆发以及超级季风盛行,从而导致了硅质海绵礁灭绝。     

黔东北石阡志留系雷家屯组的生物-岩相分异

黔东北石阡志留系兰多维列统埃隆阶上部的雷家屯组属灰岩和碎屑岩混合相,其分布限于滇黔桂古陆以北离岸几十千米范围内的浅海区。出露于枫香铺子沟、雷家屯、白沙龙口—筷子山、白沙均田和本庄岩门的5个剖面存在生物-沉积相的差异性。铺沟村粉砂岩—泥岩含量高于灰岩,达到4∶1,壳相化石丰度最低且无生物礁滩灰岩沉积;其它4个剖面的碎屑岩—灰岩比例约1∶1,雷家屯壳相化石最丰富,上部出现米级厚度的珊瑚-层孔虫点礁;筷子山剖面的雷家屯组下部开始出现雏形礁,之上的礁核灰岩现已被剥蚀掉,但从礁基的菲利普构造和礁翼塌积岩推测,点礁的正向隆起规模是很明显的;均田剖面仅出露雷家屯组上部约7m的地层,多为粉砂岩和生屑灰岩薄层;岩门剖面多为薄层细颗粒生屑滩相灰岩,近顶部出现钙质微生物形成的叠层石。偏西剖面的雷家屯组顶部展现侵蚀面、泥裂等现象,是桐梓上升期海底暴露的证据,唯有最靠东的铺沟村雷家屯组顶部未见暴露标志,与之上马脚冲组呈整合接触。     

Microfacies of a Permian calcisponge reef in Lichuan,western Hubei,South China

The Lichuan Jiantianba reef is located at the platform margin between the carbonate platform and the marine trough in western Hubei, China. The water depth of this area became shallow in the late Permian Changhsingian Age, and a huge aggradation-progradation platform marginal reef developed. Based on precise field measurements and microscopic observation, this paper describes the petrological characteristics and biological assemblages of the reef in detail and distinguishes 10 microfacies: small echinoderm wackestone, sponge floatstone, bound sponge bioliestone, bound sponge framestone, large echinoderm wackestone, red algal limestone, bioclastic grainstone, dasycladales wackestone, shelly wackestone, and microbialites. Sponge floatstone and bound sponge bioliestone are defined as toppled sponge limestone. Comparisons of the petrological characteristics and biotic association of toppled sponge limestone, bound sponge framestone and bioclastic wackestone and grainstone revealed that the toppled sponge limestone and the bound sponge framestone are similar in sponge content in terms of the types and contents of reef-dwellers, except that the sponge content is slightly lower, and the preservation state is mainly toppled for the former and upright or inclined for the latter. The toppled sponge limestone is dominated by tabular calcite, and the bound sponge framestone is dominated by fibrous calcite. The bioclastic wackestone and grainstone do not contain reef-building sponge organisms, and the bioclast content is very high and often dominated by a certain class, such as echinoderms, foraminifers, green algae or shells. The toppled sponge limestone below the framework, which was classified as fore-reef breccia or bioherm bafflestone-bindstone in previous studies, should be defined as reef-core sponge limestone deposited in situ that experienced serious post-karstification. The vertical evolution of the sedimentary facies of the reef is analyzed based on the microfacies and sedimentary environment. The toppled sponge limestone and the bound sponge framestone should be classified as reef core, which is the only subfacies of the reef facies. The underlying small echinoderm wackestone should be classified as the shelf facies, whereas the overlying bioclastic wackestone and grainstone should be classified as the open platform facies. These classifications represent a modification of the sedimentary facies subdivision of the Jiantianba reef in Lichuan, Hubei Province, South China, and provide a new reference model for the subdivision of the Permian calcisponge reefs on platform margin.     

新疆塔里木塔中井区上奥陶统良里塔格组的生物绑结岩

塔里木板块塔中井区上奥陶统凯迪阶良里塔格组灰岩中底栖固着型的钙质微生物、钙藻以及动物苔藓虫、珊瑚、层孔虫,可通过障积、盖覆和粘结等方式形成多种类型的生物绑结岩。对15口井部分岩芯以常用的绑结岩分类方案作岩石学微相分析,并描记底栖固着型生物颗粒的形成特征。菌藻类可在内碎屑表面以包结方式形成粘结岩;钙藻,特别是分枝状钙藻可形成障积岩;层孔虫可被隐藻层纹包结,也可单独形成小型盖覆岩;床板珊瑚格架岩可大量障积生屑和灰泥基质;苔藓虫在动物格架岩比例上占优,可与菌藻类粘结岩互相包结生长,也可独立形成局部小型障积岩。对比巴楚露头区同期藻丘中的绑结岩特征,显示塔中良里塔格组代表晚奥陶世由高生物多样性形成的礁滩复合体生态群落。     

西藏普兰县姜叶玛地区中二叠统西兰塔组中的有孔虫及其地质意义

西藏雅鲁藏布江缝合带蛇绿混杂岩中混杂着大小不一的二叠纪灰岩块体,它的来源一直颇有争议,这些灰岩块体中动物群的古生物地理面貌是判断其来源的重要手段。姜叶玛灰岩体是位于西藏普兰县境内混杂在中生代蛇绿混杂岩中的一个大型二叠纪灰岩块体。其中,中二叠世西兰塔组中含有丰富的非?有孔虫化石,它们主要由Neodiscus,Climacammina,Pachyphloia和Lysites组成,伴生有Dagmarita,Deckerella,Globivalvulina,Neoendothyra,Lasiodiscus,Lasiotrochus,Tetrataxis,Geinitzina,Ichthyofrondina,Nodosaria,Nodosinelloides,Agathammina,Septoagathammina和Shanita,时代相当于中二叠世Capitanian期。古生物地理上,Lysites和Shanita的出现表明这个动物群属于基墨里生物区,它们从古生物地理上以及生物多样性上和印度板块北缘的巴基斯坦盐岭地区以及藏南喜马拉雅区的同时代动物群有显著差别。结合前期?类动物群古生物地理的研究,姜叶玛灰岩块体很可能位于拉萨地块与喜马拉雅之间的新特提斯洋海山上,与两个地块之间都有一定的隔离。这也说明新特提斯打开的时间早于中二叠世。

A WESTWARD EXTENSION OF THE UPPER ASHGILLIAN HIRNANTIA FAUNA

The very distinctive Hirnantia fauna of uppermost Ordovician age is here recorded from Ireland, where it is found in association with the upper parts of the Chair of Kildare reef limestone. The most important hrachiopod members of the Hirnantia assemblage are Cliftoma, Cryptothyrella, Plectothyrella, Hirnantia, Eostropheodonta , and Dalmanella which are illustrated and their occurrences at other European localities indicated and discussed, particularly with respect to their differing abundances. The nature of the fauna, in conjunction with some lithological pointers, indicates a shallow water lagoonal environment of deposition. With respect to the Kildare succession, the presence of the Hirnantia fauna indicates that the upper part of the Kildare limestone at least belongs to Zone 8 of the Ashgillian; and it is believed that the North of England Keisley Limestone is also of this age, rather than of Lower or Middle Ashgillian age.     

山东兖州煤田太原组(竹蜓)类动物群及石炭-二叠系界线探讨

通过对山东兖州煤田太原组类动物群的系统研究,共鉴定出类化石12属103种及部分未定种。根据类化石在地层中的分布和垂向变化规律,自上而下建立一个带三个亚带:Schwagerina带:3)Triticitesparvus-Quasifusulinalongissima亚带,2)Schwagerinagregaria-Boultoniawillsi亚带,1)Quasifusulinapseudocayeuxi-Rugosofusulinavalida亚带。通过与邻区及华北部分地区对比,本区太原组类动物群的地质时代为早二叠世早期,本区石炭-二叠系界线应置于太原组第十一层灰岩之底。     

The evolution of narrow reef flats at high-latitude in the Ryukyu Islands

This paper describes a Holocene reef structure observed from a cutting in a modern reef on Okierabu Island in the Ryukyu Islands and proposes a process for the initiation and formation of narrow, lagoon-less fringing reef flats. Reef formation began around 7050 yBP at 11 m below present sea level. The reef was constructed by a uniform facies of in situ tabular corals and kept up with sea level rise. Geomorphological zonation has been restricted by the lack of a cross-reef energy gradient during reef formation. Sediment trapped by limestone caves abutting the shore has contributed to this characteristic. The slope break around-10 m and steep scarp of the shore create a narrow substrate that is responsible for the development of an equally narrow reef flat.
