摘要:

叠层石记录早期环境、蓝细菌和微生物群落的生命活动,其生长形态受到沉积环境的影响,对古环境恢复具有重要意义。豫西中元古界官道口群龙家园组二段叠层石发育形态类型丰富,分布集中,是叠层石发育的典型地区,其分布与全球性事件、海洋地球化学环境和微生物岩的发展密切相关,但尚未见对其详细研究。基于此,本文选取龙家园组二段叠层石发育剖面为研究对象,对叠层石开展野外宏观形态和室内微观特征分析,据此反演沉积环境演化过程和建立沉积模式,并与其他地区同时代叠层石进行对比研究。结果表明龙家园组二段叠层石宏观形态可分为水平纹层状、波纹状、丘状、锥状和柱状,显微表现出明暗纹层,局部含少量鲕粒、球粒、碎屑物质等。鉴于水平层状叠层石发育在潮间带,波纹状、丘状叠层石发育在潮间高能带及潮下低能带,锥状、柱状叠层石则发育在潮下带,认为龙家园组二段叠层石形成于潮坪环境,经历了潮间带-潮下带-潮间带的环境演化过程。本研究有助于揭示华北南缘中元古代早期微生物岩发育环境。另外,将本研究区与华北北缘蓟县地区同时期微生物岩沉积环境进行对比分析,发现该时期微生物岩分布广泛,叠层石结构与环境演变之间存在密切关系,为全面探索该时期华北克拉通周缘海洋环境、大气环境与微生物岩发育之间的关系提供新的证据。

Abstract:

Stromatolites recorded the life activities of early environment, cyanobacteria and microbial community, and their growth morphology was influenced by the sedimentary environment, which is of great significance for the paleo-environmental reconstruction. Stromatolites from the Longjiayuan Formation (2nd member)of the Mesoproterozoic Guandaokou Group in western Henan have various morphological types and concentrated in distribution, which is a typical area for stromatolites development. The distribution of stromatolites is closely related to global events, geochemical environment of the Precambrian ocean and the development of microbiolites, yet detailed research is still lacking. Based on this, we conducted a systematic field investigation and petrological examination on the microbialite structure on these stromatolites, studied the macroscopic and microscopic characteristics of the stromatolites, established the sedimentary environment evolution and sedimentary model, and compared with the stromatolites from other areas. The results show that the macroscopic morphology of the stromatolites can be divided into horizontal laminae, ripple, hilly, cone, and column. Microscopically, the stromatolites are light and dark laminae, with few ooids, spherular and detrital materials locally. The shape and scale of stromatolites are closely related to the hydrodynamic conditions and water depth. Horizontal laminated stromatolites were developed in the intertidal zone, whilst corrugated and mound stromatolites were developed in the intertidal high-energy zone and low-energy zone. Meanwhile, cone and columnar stromatolites were developed in the subtidal zone. Our comprehensive analysis shows that our stromatolite samples were formed in a tidal-flat environment, and were influenced by the sedimentary evolution process of intertidal, subtidal and intertidal zones. It is beneficial to analyze the Early Mesoproterozoic development environment of microbiolites in the southern margin of North China. Besides, we compared our results with the sedimentary environment of microbiolites in Jixian area (northern margin of North China), in order to explore the relationship between marine environment, atmospheric environment, and microbiolites around the North China Craton.
