Abstract The origin of reddish nodular limestone in the Zitai Formation, a deeper-water type of marine red beds (MRBs) distributed along the marginal Yangtze Platform, South China, is enigmatic. This paper will focus on the red colorations through sedimentological, mineralogical and geochemical analyses, as exemplified by the Zitai Formation at the Xiangshuidong section, Songzi City, Hubei Province and the Daling section, Shitai City, Anhui Province. Limestones studied here can be gray, green or red. The grayish limestones are generally below the reddish and/or greenish limestones, whereas the greenish layers are associated with reddish layers in forms of homogenous, banded or mottled limestone. Hematite that is fine and poorly crystalized could be the coloration mineral for the Zitai MRBs, which are largely caused by increased terrigenous iron, when the bottom seawater was oxic. Except that the irregular banded and mottled reddish-greenish limestone are of a possible diagenetic origin, the primary greenish limestones are related to relatively reducing conditions compared with reddish limestones, as a result from eustatic changes or other fluctuating environmental factors. During this time interval, the Great Ordovician Biodiversification Event (GOBE) was facilitated by highly oxic seawater indicated by MRBs in South China, Baltica and Sibumasu, but the diachroneity of radiations in South China could be ascribed to increased terrigenous supply, emphasizing that regionally environmental factors might be critical for biological radiations at the early stage of the GOBE.

华南边缘扬子地台中下奥陶统深水海洋红层揭示的环境变化:与生物多样性的联系

摘要 紫台组深水型海相红层(MRBs)分布于华南边缘扬子地台,其红色球状灰岩的成因是个谜。本文将通过沉积学、矿物学和地球化学分析重点研究红色,以湖北省松子市响水洞剖面和安徽省石台市大岭剖面的紫台组为例。这里研究的石灰石可以是灰色、绿色或红色。浅灰色石灰岩通常位于浅红色和/或浅绿色石灰岩之下,而浅绿色层与浅红色层以均质、带状或斑驳石灰岩的形式相连。细小结晶差的赤铁矿可能是紫台 MRB 的显色矿物,这主要是由陆源铁含量增加引起的,当底层海水含氧时。除了不规则条带状和斑驳的红绿色石灰岩可能是成岩成因外,原生绿色石灰岩与红色石灰岩相比,与相对还原的条件有关,是由静水变化或其他波动环境因素造成的。在此期间,大奥陶纪生物多样性事件 (GOBE) 受到华南、波罗的海和锡布马苏 MRB 指示的高含氧海水的促进,但华南辐射的历时性可归因于陆源供应增加,强调区域环境在 GOBE 的早期阶段,这些因素可能对生物辐射至关重要。除了不规则条带状和斑驳的红绿色石灰岩可能是成岩成因外,原生绿色石灰岩与红色石灰岩相比,与相对还原的条件有关,是由静水变化或其他波动环境因素造成的。在此期间,大奥陶纪生物多样性事件 (GOBE) 受到华南、波罗的海和锡布马苏 MRB 指示的高含氧海水的促进,但华南辐射的历时性可归因于陆源供应增加,强调区域环境在 GOBE 的早期阶段,这些因素可能对生物辐射至关重要。除了不规则条带状和斑驳的红绿色石灰岩可能是成岩成因外,原生绿色石灰岩与红色石灰岩相比,与相对还原的条件有关,是由静水变化或其他波动环境因素造成的。在此期间,大奥陶纪生物多样性事件 (GOBE) 受到华南、波罗的海和锡布马苏 MRB 指示的高含氧海水的促进,但华南辐射的历时性可归因于陆源供应增加,强调区域环境在 GOBE 的早期阶段,这些因素可能对生物辐射至关重要。由于静谧的变化或其他波动的环境因素。在此期间,大奥陶纪生物多样性事件 (GOBE) 受到华南、波罗的海和锡布马苏 MRB 指示的高含氧海水的促进,但华南辐射的历时性可归因于陆源供应增加,强调区域环境在 GOBE 的早期阶段,这些因素可能对生物辐射至关重要。由于静谧的变化或其他波动的环境因素。在此期间,大奥陶纪生物多样性事件 (GOBE) 受到华南、波罗的海和锡布马苏 MRB 指示的高含氧海水的促进,但华南辐射的历时性可归因于陆源供应增加,强调区域环境在 GOBE 的早期阶段,这些因素可能对生物辐射至关重要。
