Introducing an intelligent multi-level retrieval method for mineral resource potential evaluation result data

Abstract The geological data of the mineral resource potential evaluation results (MRPERs) are diverse and extremely large; efficiently retrieving data remains a challenging problem. In this work, a new way of using the Hadoop platform is proposed. The Hadoop distributed file system is used to store the massive data and construct the data storage model of geological and mineral resources. Using a distributed Hadoop database (HBase) that supports the fast query of a single record, it manages its metadata and retrieves the data of MRPERs quickly. At the same time, a multi-level index directory is designed to support the non-main key query on the HBase. This overcomes the shortcoming that the HBase only supports the simple index based on the main key and realizes the intelligent, efficient retrieval of MRPERs. The validity and feasibility of the proposed method are further verified by experiments using the MRPER data in the Institute of Mineral Resources, Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences.

Ambient Noise Tomography of Jinan: The Migration of Groundwater and the Formation of Geothermal Water

AbstractJinan is an important city in eastern China, with rich groundwater in the region. There are four famous springs in the urban area and an abundance of geothermal water in the northern part, which makes the migration of groundwater in this area a very important issue. To study the shallow shear wave velocity structure and groundwater migration in Jinan, we utilized almost a month of continuous waveform data from 175 short period seismometers deployed by the Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences, in order to calculate the cross‐correlation function. We picked 7749 group dispersion curves and 6117 phase dispersion curves with a period range of 0.2–2 s. Through inversion, we obtained the fine three‐dimensional shear wave velocity and azimuthal anisotropy structure (0–2.4 km). Combining the results with local geological and hydrological data, the following conclusions were reached. (1) There are widespread high velocity anomalies in the region between the Qianfoshan and Wenhuaqiao faults, as well as to the east of the Wenhuaqiao Fault, which may be related to the intrusive gabbro known as the Jinan Intrusive Rock. (2) The two distinct high velocity anomalies in our model (referred to as west and east Jinan Intrusive Rock in this paper) may indicate that the Jinan Intrusive Rock was broken through crustal movement. (3) There is an obvious low velocity layer under the intrusive rock, which could be the channel of groundwater migration. The precipitation in the southern mountain region seeps down into the ground, then is blocked by the Jinan Intrusive Rock and can only progress downwards to a deeper part, where the groundwater is heated by the geothermal gradient. The heated water finally arrives at the northern part and forms geothermal water. (4) The depth of the low velocity layer beneath the Jinan Intrusive Rock varies laterally, which may indicate that the depth of the groundwater migration is different beneath the west and east Jinan Intrusive Rock. (5) There is strong azimuthal anisotropy in southern Jinan, with nearly E‐W fast orientation, which may be related to the tilt limestone layering structure.

Application of international organizations position to measure the academic influence institution: Empirical case of geology

This paper adopts the position of international academic organizations to reflect the academic influence of research institutions, and constructs the position index of international academic organizations. The index includes three steps: determining the scope of international academic organizations, collecting and cleaning the position data of international academic organizations, and calculating the position score of research institutions. The 18 international geological academic organizations are selected as research samples, and 333 positions of international academic organizations are collected for empirical analysis. The research results show that the United States, China, the United Kingdom, Germany and Russia are the five countries with the largest number of positions. The 333 positions are distributed in 249 institutions, among which the Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences has 12 positions, the largest number of positions.

The skarn deposits occur in the contact zones of late Mesozoic granodiorite porphyry intrusions. Bismuth tellurides and coloradoite (HgTe) occur in Cu-Au skarn and peripheral Au-As ores, respectively, whereas tellurides, including coloradoite, and lorandite (TlAsS2) are present in carbonate-hosted Au ores outside the marble front. New zircon U-Pb ages indicate that the granodiorite porphyry intrusions spatially related to both Cu-Au skarn and carbonate-hosted Au deposits were emplaced between 149.9 ± 1.3 and 145.9 ± 0.7 Ma, which overlaps with molybdenite Re-Os ages of 149.1 ± 2.1 to 145.4 ± 2.9 Ma from the Cu-Au skarn deposits. Sulfur isotope compositions of sulfide minerals from the Cu-Au skarn deposits (δ34S = –2.5 to 6.4‰) are similar to those from carbonate-hosted Au deposits (δ34S = –4.8 to 2.6‰), suggesting a similar magmatic source of sulfur. Geologic, mineralogical, and sulfur isotope evidence collectively indicate that the carbonate-hosted Au deposits are the distal product of Cu-Au skarn mineralization rather than Carlin-type Au deposits, as has been previously suggested. This study proposes a genetic model to illustrate possible linkages between oxidized Cu-Au skarn deposits (associated with oxidized magmas) and carbonate-hosted Au deposits, which may have important implications for Au deposits in the more distal parts of Cu-Au skarn systems in the Middle-Lower Yangtze River metallogenic belt and elsewhere.

Introducing the Mazongshan Dinosaur Fauna

ABSTRACTThe Mazongshan Dinosaur Fauna (MDF) includes all dinosaurs recovered from the late Early Cretaceous Xiagou and Zhonggou formations in the Mazongshan area of Gansu Province in northwestern China. Currently, 11 distinctive dinosaur genera have been recovered in this fauna, representing three theropods, two sauropods, four hadrosauroids, and two neoceratopsians. Four features can be recognized for the MDF: (1) the presence of large herbivorous theropods, such as the therizinosaur Suzhousaurus and ornithomimosaur Beishanlong; (2) the presence of diverse basal hadrosauroids, represented by at least four genera; (3) an abundance of basal neoceratopsians, represented by numerous individuals of Auroraceratops; and (4) an apparent lack of psittacosaurids. The MDF is unique and different from any other known dinosaur faunas, including that from the Jehol Biota.Citation for this article: You, H.-L., E. M. Morschhauser, D.-Q. Li, and P. Dodson. 2019.

Basaltic and Solution Reference Materials for Iron, Copper and Zinc Isotope Measurements

Iron, Cu and Zn stable isotope systems are applied in constraining a variety of geochemical and environmental processes. Secondary reference materials have been developed by the Institute of Geology, Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences (CAGS), in collaboration with other participating laboratories, comprising three solutions (CAGS‐Fe, CAGS‐Cu and CAGS‐Zn) and one basalt (CAGS‐Basalt). These materials exhibit sufficient homogeneity and stability for application in Fe, Cu and Zn isotopic ratio determinations. Reference values were determined by inter‐laboratory analytical comparisons involving up to eight participating laboratories employing MC‐ICP‐MS techniques, based on the unweighted means of submitted results. Isotopic compositions are reported in per mil notation, based on reference materials IRMM‐014 for Fe, NIST SRM 976 for Cu and IRMM‐3702 for Zn. Respective reference values of CAGS‐Fe, CAGS‐Cu and CAGS‐Zn solutions are as follows: δ56Fe = 0.83 ± 0.07 and δ57Fe = 1.20 ± 0.13, δ65Cu = 0.57 ± 0.06, and δ66Zn = −0.79 ± 0.12 and δ68Zn = −1.65 ± 0.24, respectively. Those of CAGS‐Basalt are δ56Fe = 0.15 ± 0.07, δ57Fe = 0.22 ± 0.10, δ65Cu = 0.12 ± 0.08, δ66Zn = 0.17 ± 0.13, and δ68Zn = 0.34 ± 0.26 (2s).

Production and Certification of the Reference Material GSB 04‐3258‐2015 as a 143Nd/144Nd Isotope Ratio Reference

A new certified reference material, labelled GSB 04‐3258‐2015, for use as a 143Nd/144Nd isotope ratio reference has been prepared by the Institute of Geology, Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences, Beijing. Standardization Administration of the People's Republic of China provided the certification for this reference material. This report presents the reference 143Nd/144Nd isotope ratio and supporting production and certification procedures. The reference value was determined by an interlaboratory comparison of results from eleven participating laboratories using MC‐TIMS or MC‐ICP‐MS. The calibration of mass fractionation was conducted by using the exponential law, and the 143Nd/144Nd isotope ratios were normalised to the 146Nd/144Nd isotope ratio value of 0.7219. Isobaric interference of 144Sm on 144Nd was corrected using an interference‐free 147Sm/149Sm isotope ratio value for mass fractionation. GSB 04‐3258‐2015 shows sufficient homogeneity and stability for use as an international isotopic reference material. The certified value was calculated from the unweighted means of the results submitted by the participating laboratories. The 143Nd/144Nd isotope ratio value for GSB 04‐3258‐2015 is 0.512438, with a combined expanded uncertainty (k = 2) of 5 × 10−6. Reference material GSB 04‐3258‐2015 is available upon request from the Institute of Geology, Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences, and may be used for accurate interlaboratory calibration of Nd isotope analysis.

Assessment of hafnium and iron isotope compositions of Chinese national igneous rock standard materials GSR-1 (granite), GSR-2 (andesite), and GSR-3 (basalt)

In this contribution, we investigate the suitability of three igneous rock standards distributed by the Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences as international standard reference materials for Hf–Fe isotope determinations. We report Lu–Hf concentrations and Hf–Fe isotope compositions of Chinese National Standards (CNS) GSR-1 (granite), GSR-2 (andesite), and GSR-3 (basalt) in order to assess their homogeneity and give the first benchmark values. Experiments using spiked (isotope dilution) and non-spiked samples reveal an overall homogeneous Hf isotope composition for CNS GSR-2 and GSR-3 with 176Hf/177Hf=0.282641±6 (MSWD=1.5, n=10) and 0.282985±04 (MSWD=0.48, n=10), respectively. In contrast to GSR-2 and GSR-3, two out of ten analyses of GSR-1 show elevated Hf concentrations in conjunction with less radiogenic Hf isotope compositions, considerably lower to −10.6 and −16.8ɛHf units, respectively, compared to the average of the remainder analyses. We ascribe this heterogeneity to inherited zircon grains so often observed in granitic rocks. Iron isotope determinations on a subset of samples yields values of δ57Fe=+0.35±0.02, +0.22±0.05, +0.43±0.02 (relative to IRMM-014, n=3) for GSR-1, GSR-2, and GSR-3, respectively. Our results indicate that GSR-2 and GSR-3 appear suitable standards for Hf–Fe isotope analyses, but advise caution when using GSR-1 as a measure for quality control for Hf isotope compositions and concentrations.
