Abstract

Hydrothermal tourmaline occurs as aggregates or dissemination in the diaspore nodule from an aluminum-rich clay deposit, Milyang, southeastern Korea. Most crystals of tourmaline show complex textures that are finely zoned. The fine-scale chemical zonation of hydrothermal tourmaline reflects the fluctuation conditions that would be expected from fluid mixing in open systems. Oscillatory chemical zoning in tourmaline formed and showed similar patterns, regardless of its crystallographic directions. Mg was enriched in the early stage of crystal growth while Fe was enriched in the later stage, with fluctuations of the ratio of Fe to Mg. Chemical analysis, BSE images, and X-ray compositional maps confirm that the oscillatory Boning in tourmaline is exclusively controlled by the variations of Fe and Mg contents, but the contribution of boron to the zonation is insignificant. The fact that tourmaline altered to diaspore and dickite indicates that tourmaline was unstable with respect to these aluminous minerals as the B, Fe, and Mg activities decreased. Therefore, the aluminum activity may control the stability of tourmaline in the hydrothermal system.

밀양점토광상의 알루미늄이 풍부한 다이아스포아 단괴에서 열수변질 기원 전기석은 집합체나 미립으로 산출한다 대부분의 전기석 결정은 미세한 대구조가 특징적인데, 이는 열수변질 작용동안 개방계의 유체혼합과 같은 변동이 심한 환경에서 형성되었음을 지시한다. 본 전기석의 화학적 진동누대 구조의 양상은 결정축의 방향과는 무관하게 흡사한 특징을 보인다. Mg는 결정성장 초기, Fe는 후기 단계동안에 부화되었으며, Fe/Mg의 비는 규칙적으로 진동함을 보여 준다. 화학분석, 후방산란영상(BSE), X-선 화학분석도에 따르면 전기석내 진동누대구조는 Fe와 Mg 함량변화에 주로 제어되었으며 봉소함량의 기여도는 미미하다. 전기석이 다이아스포아와 딕카이트로 변질되는 것으로 볼 때 전기석은 B, Fe, Mg의 활동도가 감소하면서 이들 고알루미나 광물에 비하여 불안정해 진다. 그러므로 열수계내 알루미늄 활동도가 전기석의 안정성을 제어하는 것으로 볼 수 있다.
