西藏地热气体的地球化学特征及其地质意义
Geochemical charact eristics of geothermal gases and their geological implications in Tibet
【摘要】 西藏水热活动是青藏高原碰撞造山过程的产物 ,其成因类型、物质来源和时空分布与青藏高原的隆升过程密切相关 ,地热流体 (气、液相 )中携带有中上地壳乃至地幔物质的深部信息。西藏地热流体可以区分出 CO2 型和 N2 型两类气体 ,其中绝大多数的地热气体样品属于 CO2 型气体 ,而典型的 N2 型气体则较少。前者具有岩浆热源和深循环两种成因类型 ,后者都是深循环成因。西藏气体样品中的 He含量变化范围非常宽 ,最高的可达到 1.5%。在门士热泉 ,首次检测到地幔 He组分 ,这说明西藏地壳深处有地幔物质侵位。根据 He同位素组成推断 ,羊八井、谷露等处的地壳熔融体中约有 3 %的地幔组分。西藏地热气体中的 N2 和 Ar组分主要是大气成因 ,CO2 组分大多以海相碳酸盐岩成因为主 ,混有少量有机沉积物成因 CO2 。当 L og(H2 / Ar)处于 -0 .8~ 0 .3的区间时 ,H2 / Ar地热温度计可以良好地指示热储层的温度范围。实际调查表明 :西藏水热活动区大多分布在班公错—怒江缝合带以南地区 ,高温水热活动区主要出现在雅鲁藏布缝合带和那曲 -羊八井 -亚东活动构造带沿线
【Abstract】 Geothermal resources are abundant in the Tibetan Plateau. Two types of geotherma l gases can be distinguished in the region, i.e. CO 2- and N 2-rich gase s. In most cases, CO 2 is a dominant component of gases, usually higher than 80 % in volume and coexists with Cl-Na or HCO 3-Na water. Cl-Na water generally appears in high-temperature geothermal systems associated with magma intrusion s. HCO 3-Na water presents in low- to medium-temperature geothermal systems warmed by high regional heat flow through meteoric water circulating at deep fau lts. In case of caverns appearance under sinter layers, CO 2-rich gases will p resent pseudo-N 2-rich gases after fluid boiling, degassing and long-distanc e lateral movement under the layers. There are a few hot springs with N 2-rich dissolved gases in Tibet, in which N 2 content is more than 90% in volume. N 2-rich gases are related to low-temperature geothermal systems and only coexis t with HCO 3-Na water.He content of gas samples is in a wide range, from under detection limit of inst rument to 1.5% in volume. There is no relation found among He content, sampling temperature and genesis of hydrothermal systems. He-Ar-N 2 triangular diagram shows that nearly all of helium is generated by the decay of U and Th in the cr ust. N 2 and Ar are mostly of atmospheric origin. Low N 2/Ar ratio of the samp les eliminates the possibility of N 2 and Ar escaping from mantle intrusions. O n the basis of helium isotope ratios at well ZK4001 of the Yangbajain and at Gul u hot springs, it is inferred that there is about 3% of mantle component in part ial melting layer of the crust in the region. Except the Yangbajain geothermal f ield and a few other hot springs, most of CO 2 originates from marine carbonat es mixing with a little organic sediment.The relative abundances of geothermal gases can be applied to calculation of tem perature in reservoirs. There are two H 2/Ar geothermometers proposed by differ ent authors. When Log(H 2/Ar) value is in the range of -0.8 to 0.3, estimated t emperatures from these ones are accordant with each other and close to the measu red ones. However, if there is radioactive Ar adding in primordial gases or H 2 degassing during fluids’ ascent, deviation of calculated temperature will incr ease. It is reasonable that H 2/Ar geothermometers can’t be applicable for low temperature geothermal systems.In Tibet, the hydrothermal activities are mainly situated on the south side of t he Banggong-Nujian suture. Only a few hot springs are located on the north side of this suture. Boiling, hydrothermal eruption and silica deposit manifestation s associated with high-temperature geothermal systems are only distributed alon g the Yarlu-Zangbo suture and S-N striking Nagqu-Yangbajain-Yadong normal fa ults. On the Tibetan plateau, it is first time to detect the helium of mantle or igin at Moincer hot spring. Therefore it indicates mantle component emplacement at the shallow part of the crust.
