加拿大薩斯喀徹溫省東南部上奧陶統(tǒng)Yeoman組碳酸鹽巖中發(fā)育有少量的鞍形白云石膠結(jié)物。這些鞍形白云石僅局限于Yeoman組上部厚約20～30 m的白云巖帶中,上覆及下伏碳酸鹽巖地層中均明顯缺失這類(lèi)鞍形白云石,表明其形成于一個(gè)相對(duì)封閉的體系中。此類(lèi)奧陶系鞍形白云石膠結(jié)物以具有與宿主交代白云巖相似的碳同位素δ13C值(-0.2‰～0.9‰PDB)及鍶同位素比值(0.708 2～0.709 0)為特征,表明前期的白云石圍巖通過(guò)壓溶作用形成的碳和鍶是鞍形白云石膠結(jié)物的主要來(lái)源。另外,測(cè)得的鞍形白云石膠結(jié)物均一溫度范圍為99～105℃,可以由該區(qū)域的正常埋藏溫度解釋。基于上述資料和觀察,我們認(rèn)為薩斯喀徹溫省東南部上奧陶統(tǒng)Yeoman組鞍形白云石膠結(jié)物與早期交代白云石的自調(diào)節(jié)白云石化作用(埋藏過(guò)程中相對(duì)封閉的體系中通過(guò)化學(xué)壓實(shí)作用形成)有關(guān),而與加西盆地其它地方已經(jīng)證實(shí)的熱液活動(dòng)無(wú)關(guān)。因此,鞍形白云石的分布未必指示熱液活動(dòng)或熱流體,也并不是所有的鞍形白云石都與熱流體有關(guān)。

0 引言

鞍形白云石是指粗晶、乳白色的白云石,通常具有彎曲的晶面,由于晶格變形而呈波狀消光[1]。一般以膠結(jié)物的形式分布在孔隙和裂縫中,局部以交代白云石的方式產(chǎn)出[1～3]。由于鞍形白云石通常與油氣藏的分布或密西西比河谷型鉛—鋅礦床具有空間和成因上的聯(lián)系,在過(guò)去的二十多年中,許多學(xué)者對(duì)有關(guān)鞍形白云石的成因及其性質(zhì)進(jìn)行了廣泛的研究[4～15]。盡管鞍形白云石可以形成于不同的地質(zhì)環(huán)境中[7],但最近有人建議把鞍形白云石的出現(xiàn)作為“指示熱液環(huán)境”最重要的巖石學(xué)標(biāo)志[3]。這里所說(shuō)的熱流體是指溫度高于圍巖溫度的流體介質(zhì),而對(duì)流體來(lái)源并沒(méi)有特別限定[16]。

在本研究中,我們將展示加拿大薩斯喀徹溫省東南部(圖1)上奧陶統(tǒng)Yeoman組碳酸鹽巖中非熱液成因的鞍形白云石的證據(jù)。該類(lèi)鞍形白云石與其宿主基質(zhì)白云石的自調(diào)節(jié)(蠶食)白云石化(埋藏過(guò)程中,在一相對(duì)封閉的地?zé)崃黧w系統(tǒng)中通過(guò)壓實(shí)作用形成)有關(guān),表明并非所有的鞍形白云石都與熱流體有關(guān)。

1 地質(zhì)背景

威利斯頓盆地(圖1)上奧陶統(tǒng)地層是在晚奧陶世覆蓋大部分北美克拉通盆地的陸表海中沉積的[17]。在薩斯喀徹溫省東南部,上奧陶統(tǒng)地層分為Yeoman組和Herald組[17](圖2),地層總厚度100～165 m左右,現(xiàn)今埋藏深度達(dá)1 500～3 000 m[18]。本次研究的鞍形白云石采自Yeoman組上部巖心樣品(圖2)。

2 產(chǎn)狀與分布

上奧陶統(tǒng)Yeomen組鞍形白云石的分布與圍巖碳酸鹽巖的結(jié)構(gòu)和巖性有密切的關(guān)系,紅河階Yeomen組碳酸鹽巖最顯著的特征是普遍發(fā)育寬約0.5～3 cm(絕大多數(shù)為1 cm)的斑狀潛穴系統(tǒng)(圖3),這些潛穴斑塊優(yōu)先發(fā)生白云石化[19,20],顏色比圍巖基質(zhì)暗(圖3)。在這些斑狀潛穴內(nèi)部,通常發(fā)育有更小的(直徑0.2～0.3 cm)、顏色更深的潛穴(圖3A),

在薩斯喀徹溫省東南部的地下巖心樣品中,白色鞍形白云石以膠結(jié)物的形式分布于晶洞中,尤其是這些斑狀潛穴中;鞍形白云石膠結(jié)物可能最初是從未被充填的和/或部分淋漓的內(nèi)部潛穴中沉淀而成(圖3B -D)。部分晶洞含有示底構(gòu)造,鞍形白云石作為膠結(jié)物沉積在與潛穴相關(guān)的晶洞上部(圖3B、C),局部地區(qū)可見(jiàn)沉積在方形或長(zhǎng)方形晶洞(圖3D)中的鞍形白云石膠結(jié)物,這可能與食鹽晶體的溶蝕有關(guān)[17]。偶爾,鞍形白云石和粗晶硬石膏也存在于巨大的不規(guī)則晶洞中(圖3D)。正交偏光鏡下,這些鞍形白云石膠結(jié)物具有鞍形白云石的特征[1],呈波狀消光(圖3E、F)。

分散狀鞍形白云石膠結(jié)物僅發(fā)現(xiàn)于距加拿大—美國(guó)邊境約5～12 km,薩斯喀徹溫省東南部的幾口深部鉆井巖心中,鉆井中奧陶系Yeoman組現(xiàn)今的埋藏深度略大于3 000 m。鞍形白云石膠結(jié)物一般僅見(jiàn)于Yeoman組上部20～30 m、宿主灰?guī)r已完全白云石化的區(qū)域(圖2)[19,21,22],此類(lèi)白云巖中還發(fā)育有大量的縫合線(圖3G)。然而,在Yeoman組下部緊臨白云石帶之下(仍然是灰?guī)r)的碳酸鹽巖中(圖2),并沒(méi)有觀察到鞍形白云石膠結(jié)物;在Yeoman組上覆的淺水白云巖地層中(包括志留系、泥盆系和密西西比統(tǒng)白云巖地層)也同樣缺乏鞍形白云石膠結(jié)物,該套白云巖與Yeoman組白云巖之間被一區(qū)域性硬石膏層分隔,Herald組中的Lake Al ma和Coronach段直接覆蓋在Yeoman組之上(圖2)。

鞍形白云石膠結(jié)物的氧同位素δ18O值介于-10.2‰～-11.1‰之間,平均-10.7‰(圖4A),比白云石圍巖的氧同位素δ18O值低2‰～4‰(圖4A);碳同位素δ13C值則介于-0.2‰～+0.9‰之間,平均為0.3‰,與宿主白云石的碳同位素δ13C值部分重疊,落在奧陶紀(jì)正常海水的碳同位素δ13C值(-0.5‰～+1.5‰)范圍之內(nèi)[23,24];鍶同位素87Sr/86Sr比值介于0.708 2～0.709 0之間,與宿主基質(zhì)白云石近似(圖4B),其中一個(gè)樣品的鍶同位素87Sr/86Sr比值明顯偏高,達(dá)到0.709 7。

本文在12個(gè)樣品中選取3個(gè)樣品的氣液兩相包裹體進(jìn)行測(cè)試分析(圖4C),每個(gè)樣品的均一溫度變化范圍均較窄,介于99oC～105oC之間;由于包裹體較小(絕大部分3～5μm),冰點(diǎn)溫度無(wú)法精確測(cè)得。

4 討論和解釋

鞍形白云石膠結(jié)物僅局限分布在加拿大與美國(guó)邊境的深部鉆井Yeomen組上部相對(duì)較薄的白云巖化圍巖中。被區(qū)域性硬石膏層分隔的上覆白云巖地層(Lake Al ma和Coronach段;圖2)明顯缺失鞍形白云石,下伏的Yeoman組下部灰?guī)r同樣缺失鞍形白云石;這些表明這些鞍形白云石膠結(jié)物形成于白云化地層中相對(duì)封閉、沒(méi)有向外輸送通道(如:裂縫/斷層)的流體系統(tǒng)。大量發(fā)育的縫合線(圖3E、F)表明白云巖宿主地層發(fā)生了強(qiáng)烈的壓溶作用,為鞍形白云石膠結(jié)物的沉淀提供了鎂離子來(lái)源。

鞍形白云石膠結(jié)物的同位素地球化學(xué)證據(jù)進(jìn)一步證實(shí)了上述的認(rèn)識(shí)。碳同位素δ13C值與宿主白云巖的完全重疊(圖4A),表明鞍形白云石中的碳主要來(lái)自封閉系統(tǒng)中的前期宿主白云巖地層。另外,鞍形白云石的鍶同位素87Sr/86Sr比值與宿主白云巖也具有相似性(圖4B),表明鞍形白云石中鍶也主要來(lái)源于前期白云石。

與宿主白云巖相比,鞍形白云石膠結(jié)物偏低的氧同位素δ18O值可能與鞍形白云石沉積形成時(shí)溫度較高有關(guān),正如所測(cè)得的鞍形白云石的均一溫度值(平均99～105℃)。來(lái)自磷灰石裂變徑跡研究熱埋藏史[25]表明,雖然薩斯喀徹溫省威利斯頓盆地前寒武紀(jì)基底的溫度在晚石炭紀(jì)時(shí)可以達(dá)到124oC,但對(duì)上奧陶統(tǒng)Yeoman組地層的影響很小,該時(shí)期Yeoman組烴源巖尚未成熟。因此,所測(cè)均一溫度值很可能是研究區(qū)正常埋藏的溫度。

根據(jù)Yeomen組上部鞍形白云石膠結(jié)物的產(chǎn)狀、空間分布和地球化學(xué)性質(zhì),認(rèn)為Yeomen組上部鞍形白云石膠結(jié)物是非熱液成因的產(chǎn)物;而是埋藏過(guò)程中,宿主白云巖在相對(duì)封閉的體系中通過(guò)壓溶作用形成的。這些特征與加西盆地其它地區(qū)報(bào)道的熱液成因的鞍形白云石有本質(zhì)區(qū)別[3,5～7,11,26～28],形成大規(guī)模的熱液成因的鞍形白云巖體通常需要與區(qū)域性的疏導(dǎo)體相聯(lián)通的開(kāi)放體系,流體在通過(guò)該疏導(dǎo)體系時(shí)有大量鎂離子的加入并被加熱,使圍巖發(fā)生白云巖化。因此,熱液白云巖體經(jīng)常沿疏導(dǎo)體系切割若干地層單元[3,5,6,10,27,28]。較之宿主碳酸鹽巖,熱液白云巖的碳同位素δ13C值一般明顯虧損,表明在烴類(lèi)運(yùn)移過(guò)程中或熱化學(xué)硫酸鹽還原作用過(guò)程中,在相對(duì)開(kāi)放體系中的白云化流體中有有機(jī)碳的加入[7,29]。此外,熱液成因的鞍形白云巖通常以具有比白云巖宿主地層高的鍶同位素比值[3,5,6,10,27,28],表明流體在沿刺穿硅質(zhì)碎屑含水層的斷裂疏導(dǎo)體系中遷移時(shí),會(huì)逐步吸收放射性鍶同位素進(jìn)入到白云化流體。

非熱液成因與熱液成因鞍形白云石在空間分布和地球化學(xué)性質(zhì)方面的區(qū)別可能與構(gòu)造背景有關(guān)。在本實(shí)例中,與壓溶作用有關(guān)的非熱液成因鞍形白云石分布在穩(wěn)定的克拉通內(nèi)部,而加西盆地其它地區(qū)大規(guī)模的熱液白云巖體則分布在構(gòu)造活躍的盆地邊緣,在這些地區(qū)斷裂疏導(dǎo)體系廣泛發(fā)育[3,10,11,27,30]。

5 結(jié)論

鞍形白云石的存在不能作為指示熱液流體的巖石學(xué)特征,因?yàn)椴⒎撬械陌靶伟自剖寂c熱液流體有關(guān),正如我們所研究的加拿大薩斯喀徹溫省東南部奧陶系Yeoman組的鞍形白云石。

非熱液成因的鞍形白云石能夠在埋藏過(guò)程中通過(guò)埋藏壓實(shí)作用和/或宿主白云巖的自調(diào)節(jié)(蠶食)白云化作用形成,尤其是在構(gòu)造穩(wěn)定的克拉通內(nèi)部。識(shí)別非熱液成因的鞍形白云石可根據(jù)其局限分布及碳、鍶同位素與宿主白云巖具有相似性的特性加以區(qū)別。

非熱液成因的鞍形白云石在地質(zhì)記錄中可能很常見(jiàn),尤其是遭受了深埋藏的宿主白云巖地層。然而,非熱液成因的鞍形白云石可能被大規(guī)模發(fā)育的熱液鞍形白云石所掩蓋,在這種情況下,熱液白云石有可能被過(guò)分的強(qiáng)調(diào)而非熱液成因的鞍形白云石則被低估了。

致謝 我(HQ)認(rèn)識(shí)劉寶珺院士已逾32載,還在成都地質(zhì)學(xué)院上學(xué)期間曾多次有幸聆聽(tīng)他的講座。劉院士是一位諄諄教誨、啟人心蒂的良師,他一生致力于沉積學(xué)的研究,也是我的至交。當(dāng)我在加拿大學(xué)習(xí)、爾后在英國(guó)倫敦大學(xué)和加拿大里賈納大學(xué)從事教學(xué)、研究工作時(shí),這種友誼也日久彌深。劉院士對(duì)我在加拿大的生活和學(xué)術(shù)生涯的建立曾提供諸多幫助。在此,謹(jǐn)以此文獻(xiàn)給、并祝賀劉院士八十華誕,祝愿他健康、長(zhǎng)壽!

感謝薩斯喀徹溫省工業(yè)與資源廳地下巖心實(shí)驗(yàn)室對(duì)巖心觀察提供的幫助,也感謝薩斯喀徹溫大學(xué)提供了同位素測(cè)試分析,感謝Kreis K,Haidl F和Kent D對(duì)本文的評(píng)論。董少峰幫助把原文譯成中文。

Minor saddle dolomite cements are identified in the Upper Ordovician Yeoman carbonate rocks in southeastern Saskatchewan,Canada.These saddle dolomite cements are restricted to upper part of the Yeoman For mation, in a 20～30 m zone of dolomite rocks,and they are conspicuously absent both in the overlying and underlain carbonate strata,suggesting their precipitation in a relatively closed system.These Ordovician saddle dolomite cements are characterized byδ13C values(-0.2‰to 0.9‰PDB)and Sr isotopic ratios(0.7082 to 0.7090)similar to those of their host replacement dolomites,indicating the sources of carbon and strontium for the saddle dolomite cementswere mostly from precursor host dolomite rocks via pressure dissolution.In addition,the measured homogenization temperatures from the saddle dolomite cements vary from 99 to 105℃,which could be accounted for by the normal burial temperatures in the region.Based on these data and observations,the saddle dolomite cements in the UpperOrdovician Yeoman For mation in southeastern Saskatchewan are interpreted to be related to cannibalization of earlier replacement dolomite through chemical compaction in a relatively closed system during burial,rather than related to hydrothermal activities documented elsewhere in the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin.The occurrences of saddle dolomite, therefore,are not necessarily indicative of hydrothermal activity or fluids;nor are all saddle dolomites definitely related to hydrother mal fluids.
