| 中文摘要 | Seep carbonate nodules were firstly collected from the southwestern Dongsha area on northern continental slope of South China Sea for mineralogical and geochemical studies. The results of X-ray diffraction show that carbonate nodules are composed of Fe-rich domolite, side rite and a few calcite and aragonite, as well as a small quantity of non-carbonate minerals such as goethite, quartz and clay minerals. Fe-rich dolomite and siderite characterized by euhedral microcrystalline structure were directly precipitated at cold seeps. The delta C-13 values for Fe-rich dolomite and siderite in the bulk nodules vary from -18.24 parts per thousand to -36.07 parts per thousand, and the delta O-18 values range from 0.42 to 2.76 parts per thousand.. Their moderate depleted 13 C reflects that carbon origin is possibly thermogenetic gas or mixed gas, which is evidence of gas ventings in the seafloor. Moreover, massive worm tube fossils related to cold seeps were found on the surfaces of carbonate nodules, and the conduits and/or channels in semi-solidified nodules which were not filled by carbonate or sediment were also observed. A preliminary conclusion is that active micro gas venting with a conduit/channel diameter range from 200 mu m to 600 mu m possibly exists in modern seafloor of the carbonate nodule area. |
