英文摘要 | The geochemistry of the fluids is spatially closely related to faults and earthquakes that have been detected in the northern Sichuan-Yunnan (SC-YN) block. However, the processes and factors that control hydrothermal fluid circulation on a regional scale remain challenging. The geochemical circulation of the hot springs integrated with geological and geophysical data revealed the processes and controlling factors of the relationship between fluid circulation and tectonic activity. Our results showed that the hydrochemical type of the hot springs at the intersection of the Yushu-Ganzi fault (YS-GZF), Xianshuihe fault (XSHF) and Yunongxi fault (YNXF), Jinshajiang fault (JSJF) and Batang fault (BTF) as well as Ganzi-Litang fault (GZ-LTF) is composed of Na-HCO3 and NaHCO3 & sdot;Cl. It demonstrated higher reservoir temperature and circulation depth (5 - 7 km). The helium isotope (0.22 - 2.36 Ra) of the gas indicated that the mantle helium composition was up to 5 - 30 %. These hot springs may undergo water-rock-gas exchange reactions with deep fluids. Considering geological and geophysical background as well as previous studies, the geochemical characteristics of the hot spring at the intersections of faults in the north of the SC-YN block are thought to be controlled by the deep-driven upwelling lower crustal flows, mixing with shallow hot spring water and the temporal and spatial heterogeneity of the high strain fields, slip rates, and permeability of the fault intersections. Whereas, the transport of fluids in hot springs of fault may increase pore fluid pressure, and reduce the effective stress at the intersection of the fault zones, which can promote fault sliding and provoke seismic events as well as fault movements. It could result in the enhancement of regional tectonic activity. This study provides an important basis for seismic prediction with hot spring hydrochemistry stations. |
