Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a method for determining the environment of ancient oceanic bodies. Background Technology
[0002] The paleooceanic deep-water environment mainly includes the redox state of the paleooceanic deep-water body and the conditions for calcite precipitation and dissolution. Reconstructing the redox state of the paleooceanic deep-water body and the conditions for calcite precipitation and dissolution is of great significance for understanding the evolution of life, ocean currents, seawater chemistry, sediment distribution, carbon cycle, and the enrichment and preservation of organic matter.
[0003] Earth's oceans have undergone a transition from anoxic to oxygen-rich states. Early anoxic water bodies possessed a "sulfide wedge" chemical structure, while modern oxygen-rich water bodies have pore water in their sediments containing oxidation zones and NO2. - Mn 2+ Fe 2+ Chemical zoning such as H2S and CH4. The gradual enrichment of Earth's oceans with oxygen can be understood as the continuous oxidation and reduction of substances by oxygen released by biological photosynthesis. The redox state of the ocean in a local area or on a shorter time scale is mainly controlled by the supply balance between organic matter and various oxidants in the region. Dissolved oxygen is the most important oxidant, and the redox state of the ocean is usually described by terms such as oxygen-rich, oxygen-depleted, and oxygen-deficient sulfidation. For the redox state of ancient oceans, some geochemical information in rocks is usually used to infer it. The shortcomings are: (1) it is assumed that the surface water of ancient oceans is oxygen-rich and the deep water is oxygen-depleted or oxygen-deficient; (2) the relationship between geochemical data such as trace elements, TOC, isotopes, and biomarkers and minerals and organic matter is extremely complex and has strong ambiguity.
[0004] Calcite is a metabolic product of microorganisms that secrete calcium carbonate in the ocean surface. The most significant change that occurs during the settling of calcite from the ocean surface to the seabed is dissolution. The Carbonate Compensation Depth (CCD), Carbonate Lysocline Depth (CLD), and Carbonate Saturability Depth (CSD) are three important depth interfaces for studying calcite dissolution. The CSD is the transition depth at which calcium carbonate in ocean waters changes from saturated to unsaturated, resulting in significant calcite dissolution. The CLD is the calcite dissolution inflection point; above it, calcite dissolution is weak, while below it, calcite dissolution is abundant. The CCD resembles the snow line on land; shallower sediments are rich in calcite, while deeper sediments are poor in calcite. In practice, a calcite content of 2%, 10%, or 20% is usually considered as the CCD.
[0005] In view of the previous research results, the redox state of the ancient ocean deep water body and the precipitation and dissolution conditions of calcite are respectively studied, the oxygen-rich, oxygen-poor, anoxic and sulfidation of the water body and the CSD, CLD and CCD of the calcite in the water body are fragmented, and the CSD, CLD and CCD are defaulted as the result of the increase of the solubility of calcite with the increase of the depth of seawater, and there is no correlation with the redox state of the water body. This does not conform to the actual situation, and seriously affects the reconstruction of the ancient ocean environment.
[0006] In summary, there is still a need to study a new technical scheme for judging the ancient ocean water body environment, effectively combining the redox state of the ancient ocean deep water body and the precipitation and dissolution conditions of calcite, so as to better realize the reconstruction of the ancient ocean environment. SUMMARY

[0090] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the embodiments of the present application more clear, the embodiments of the present application are further described in detail below with reference to the drawings. Herein, the illustrative embodiments of the present application and the descriptions thereof are used to explain the present application, but are not intended to limit the present application.
[0091] MAPS: Modular Automated Processing System. The MAPS technology is to divide the argon ion polished surface of a sample into a series of regular grids, to scan and image each grid, and to splice the images of all the grids to obtain a two-dimensional large-view scanning image data body, i.e. a MAPS data body.
[0092] Siliceous shell refers to radiolarian siliceous shell; complete siliceous shell refers to a siliceous shell of which more than two-thirds is preserved and of which more than two-thirds of the siliceous shell cavity filling is preserved; broken siliceous shell refers to a siliceous shell of which less than two-thirds is preserved and of which less than two-thirds of the siliceous shell cavity filling is preserved.
[0093] In the past, the redox state of the deep water body of the ancient ocean and the precipitation and dissolution conditions of calcite are studied respectively, the oxygen-rich, oxygen-poor, oxygen-deficient and sulfidation of the water body and the CSD, CLD and CCD of the calcite in the water body are fragmented, and the CSD, CLD and CCD are assumed to be the result of the increase of the solubility of the calcite with the increase of the depth of the seawater, and there is no correlation with the redox state of the water body. This does not conform to the actual situation, and affects the reconstruction of the ancient ocean environment.
[0094] Based on this, the present application is dedicated to studying a technical scheme for judging the water body environment of the ancient ocean which can effectively combine the redox state of the deep water body of the ancient ocean and the precipitation and dissolution conditions of calcite. The present inventors have found that:
[0095] For the radiolarian siliceous shale lamina in which the filling material of the siliceous shell cavity is composed of calcite and organic siliceous particle complex and the filling amount of calcite in the siliceous shell cavity is less than 80%, all the siliceous shells in the radiolarian siliceous shale lamina are fitted into a complete siliceous shell, and the filling material of the complete siliceous shell cavity is calcite and organic siliceous particle complex. The cause of the filling material of the complete siliceous shell cavity being calcite and organic siliceous particle complex is: ① the calcite produced by the metabolism of calcium carbonate microorganisms secreted by the surface oxygen-rich seawater fully fills the dead radiolarian shell cavity (complete siliceous shell cavity); ② when the complete siliceous shell filled with the calcite in the cavity is settled below the CSD, the calcite begins to dissolve and forms calcite dissolution pores in the complete siliceous shell cavity; the environment below the CSD is an oxygen-poor water body, and microorganisms are active in the calcite dissolution pores of the complete siliceous shell cavity, microorganism-induced siliceous particles are precipitated, and microorganism-siliceous particle complex is formed to fill the calcite dissolution pores of the complete siliceous shell cavity; ③ when the dissolution volume of the calcite is greater than 20% (the remaining calcite is less than 80%), the complete siliceous shell filled with the calcite and the microorganism-siliceous particle complex in the cavity is settled in the oxygen-poor water body below the CLD, the dissolution rate of the calcite increases, and calcite dissolution pores are formed in the complete siliceous shell cavity, which are immediately filled with microorganism-siliceous particle complex; ④ the content of calcite in the complete siliceous shell cavity is less than 80%, and the calcite dissolution pores are filled with microorganism-siliceous particle complex, indicating that the target radiolarian siliceous shale lamina is formed between the CLD and the CCD and in an oxygen-poor water body; ⑤ during the burial diagenetic process, the microorganism-siliceous particle complex is transformed into organic siliceous particle complex, and the calcite does not change significantly.
[0096] For the radiolarite shale lamina in which the siliceous shell cavity is filled with calcite, organic-siliceous particle complex and pyrite and the filling amount of calcite in the siliceous shell cavity is less than 80%, all the siliceous shells in the radiolarite shale lamina are fitted into a complete siliceous shell, and the complete siliceous shell cavity is filled with calcite, organic-siliceous particle complex and pyrite. The cause of the complete siliceous shell cavity being filled with calcite, organic-siliceous particle complex and pyrite is: ① the calcite produced by the metabolism of calcium carbonate secreting microorganisms in the surface oxygen-rich seawater completely fills the siliceous shell cavity (complete siliceous shell cavity) of the dead radiolarian; ② when the complete siliceous shell completely filled with calcite sinks below the CSD, the calcite begins to dissolve and form calcite dissolution pores in the complete siliceous shell cavity; the environment below the CSD is a dilute oxygen water body, and microorganisms are active in the calcite dissolution pores in the complete siliceous shell cavity, microorganisms induce siliceous particles to precipitate, forming a microbial-siliceous particle complex filling the calcite dissolution pores in the complete siliceous shell cavity; ③ when the dissolution volume of calcite is greater than 20% (the remaining calcite is less than 80%), the complete siliceous shell filled with calcite and microbial-siliceous particle complex sinks to the anoxic sulfidic water body environment below the CLD, the dissolution rate of calcite increases and calcite dissolution pores are formed in the complete siliceous shell cavity, which are immediately filled with microbial-siliceous particle complex; ④ when the complete siliceous shell filled with calcite and organic-siliceous particle complex sinks to the anoxic sulfidic water body environment below the CLD, due to the acidic nature of the anoxic sulfidic water body, the dissolution of calcite is accelerated, the calcite dissolution pores are filled with pyrite, forming a complete siliceous shell cavity filled with calcite, organic-siliceous particle complex and pyrite, and the content of calcite is less than 80%, indicating that the target radiolarite shale lamina is formed between the CLD and the CCD and in an anoxic sulfidic water body environment; ⑤ during the burial diagenetic process, the microbial-siliceous particle complex is transformed into an organic-siliceous particle complex, and the calcite and pyrite do not change significantly.
[0097] For radiolarite shale lamina with the siliceous shell cavity filling of organic-silica particle complex and pyrite and the filling amount of calcite in the siliceous shell cavity less than 80%, fitting all the siliceous shells in the radiolarite shale lamina into a complete siliceous shell, and the filling of the complete siliceous shell cavity is the genesis of the organic-silica particle complex and pyrite: ①The surface oxygen-rich seawater secretes calcite produced by microbial metabolism to completely fill the siliceous shell cavity (complete siliceous shell cavity) of the dead radiolarian; ②When the complete siliceous shell cavity completely filled with calcite sinks below the CSD, the calcite begins to dissolve and form calcite dissolution pores in the complete siliceous shell cavity; below the CSD is a dilute oxygen water environment, and microorganisms are active in the calcite dissolution pores of the complete siliceous shell cavity, microorganism-induced siliceous particles are precipitated to form a microbial-silica particle complex filling the calcite dissolution pores of the complete siliceous shell cavity; ③When the dissolution volume of calcite is greater than 20% (the remaining calcite is less than 80%), the complete siliceous shell cavity filled with calcite and microbial-silica particle complex sinks to the dilute oxygen water environment below the CLD, the dissolution rate of calcite increases and calcite dissolution pores are formed in the complete siliceous shell cavity, which are immediately filled with microbial-silica particle complex; ④When the complete siliceous shell cavity filled with calcite and organic-silica particle complex sinks to the anoxic sulfidic water environment below the CLD, due to the acidic nature of the anoxic sulfidic water environment, the dissolution of calcite is accelerated, the dissolution pores are filled with pyrite, and the complete siliceous shell cavity filled with calcite, organic-silica particle complex and pyrite is formed; ⑤When the calcite is completely dissolved and the cavity is filled with organic-silica particle complex and pyrite, it indicates that the complete siliceous shell sinks to the anoxic sulfidic water environment below the CCD; ⑥During the burial diagenetic process, the microbial-silica particle complex is transformed into organic-silica particle complex, and the calcite and pyrite do not change significantly.
[0098] Based on the above research conclusion, the present application proposes a brand-new method for judging the ancient marine water environment, which opens up a new way for judging the redox state of the ancient marine deep water and the CSD, CLD and CCD conditions of calcite through the petrological characteristics of the filling of the siliceous shell cavity of the radiolarite shale lamina, effectively combines the redox state of the ancient marine deep water and the precipitation and dissolution conditions of calcite, and has important significance for reconstructing the ancient marine environment and understanding the life evolution, seawater chemical conditions, sediment distribution, carbon cycle, enrichment and preservation of organic matter. The present application takes 100%, 80% and 0% of the volume percentage of calcite in the siliceous shell cavity of the radiolarite shale lamina as the boundary, 100% of the volume of calcite in the siliceous shell cavity as the calcite supersaturated environment of the marine water, the position where the calcite begins to dissolve as the CSD of the marine water, 80% of the volume of calcite in the siliceous shell cavity as the CLD of the marine water, and 0% of the volume of calcite in the siliceous shell cavity as the CCD of the marine water.

[0116] If it is preliminarily determined that the composition of the siliceous shell cavity fillings in the core slice of the target shale reservoir is composed of calcite and C fine-grained matter and Si fine-grained matter, and the C fine-grained matter and Si fine-grained matter in the siliceous shell cavity fillings are organic silicon particle complexes, then the composition of the siliceous shell cavity fillings in the target shale reservoir is composed of calcite and organic silicon particle complexes;
[0117] If it is preliminarily determined that the composition of the siliceous shell cavity fillings in the core slice of the target shale reservoir is composed of calcite, pyrite and C fine-grained matter and Si fine-grained matter, and the C fine-grained matter and Si fine-grained matter in the siliceous shell cavity fillings are organic silicon particle complexes, then the composition of the siliceous shell cavity fillings in the target shale reservoir is composed of calcite, organic silicon particle complexes and pyrite;
[0118] If it is preliminarily determined that the composition of the siliceous shell cavity fillings in the core slice of the target shale reservoir is composed of pyrite and C fine-grained matter and Si fine-grained matter, and the C fine-grained matter and Si fine-grained matter in the siliceous shell cavity fillings are organic silicon particle complexes, then the composition of the siliceous shell cavity fillings in the target shale reservoir is composed of pyrite and organic silicon particle complexes;
[0119] Further, when the composition of the siliceous shell cavity fillings of each siliceous shell in the core slice of the target shale reservoir is independently selected from one of calcite and C fine-grained matter and Si fine-grained matter, calcite, C fine-grained matter and Si fine-grained matter, and there is at least one siliceous shell cavity filling containing calcite, at least one siliceous shell cavity filling containing C fine-grained matter and Si fine-grained matter, then the composition of the siliceous shell cavity fillings in the target shale reservoir is composed of calcite and C fine-grained matter and Si fine-grained matter;

[0122] In the element face scanning image, the transition from black, blue, green, yellow to red represents the gradual increase of the content of the element. In each component of radiolarite, the Si and O content of quartz is the highest, the Ca content of calcite is the highest, and the Fe and S content of pyrite is the highest. Therefore, quartz, calcite and pyrite can be distinguished first by the face scanning results of Si, O, Ca, Fe and S elements, then dolomite can be distinguished by the combination analysis of Ca, Mg, C and O elements, and then the distribution area of clay minerals can be distinguished by the combination of Fe, Mg, Si and Al elements. Because C-fines and Si-fines shield each other, the color is degraded. Generally, when the face scanning results of C, Si, Ca, Mg, Al, Fe, S and O elements of the framboid cavity exist the feature that the Ca element face scanning is red, it is considered that the framboid cavity fillings contain calcite; when the face scanning results of C, Si, Ca, Mg, Al, Fe, S and O elements of the framboid exist the feature that the Fe and S element face scanning results are red or yellow, it is considered that the framboid cavity fillings contain pyrite; when the face scanning results of C, Si, Ca, Mg, Al, Fe, S and O elements of the framboid exist the feature that the C element face scanning is blue to green and the Si element face scanning is green to red, it is considered that the framboid cavity fillings contain C-fines and Si-fines.
[0123] In the radiolarite lamina where the framboid cavity fillings consist of calcite and organic-silica particle complex, the broken framboid is caused by the damage of the complete framboid during the sinking process in the deep water of the ocean. In addition to filling calcite and organic-silica particle complex, the framboid cavity is often fully filled with calcite and / or fully filled with organic-silica particle complex, which is caused by the different positions of the framboid cavity filled with calcite and organic-silica particle complex in the radiolarite lamina of the target shale reservoir core slice. When the calcite is cut, the framboid cavity is observed to be fully filled with calcite, and when the organic-silica particle complex is cut, the framboid cavity is observed to be fully filled with organic-silica particle complex.
[0124] In the radiolarite lamina in which the filling of the siliceous shell cavity is composed of calcite, organic-silica particle complex and pyrite, the broken siliceous shell is caused by the damage of the intact siliceous shell during the sinking process in the deep water of the ocean; besides the filling of the organic-silica particle complex and the pyrite, the siliceous shell cavity is commonly filled with the organic-silica particle complex, and / or the siliceous shell cavity is commonly filled with the pyrite. This is caused by the different positions of the siliceous shell cavity filled with the organic-silica particle complex and the pyrite in the radiolarite lamina of the target shale reservoir core slice, when the organic-silica particle complex is cut, the siliceous shell cavity filled with the organic-silica particle complex is observed, when the pyrite is cut, the siliceous shell cavity filled with the pyrite is observed.
