Abstract:

The structural and sequential complexity and variability of microbialites result in multiple interpretations of their depositional environments. This study focuses on the 6th to 10th sub-members of the fifth member of the Ordovician Majiagou Formation(Ma56-10 sub-member)in the central-eastern Ordos Basin as an example. Based on systematic core and thin-section analyses,this paper presents a detailed characterization of microbialite sequences under varying sea-level conditions,aiming to reduce uncertainties in sedimentary environment interpretation. The results show that: (1)Three types of microbial carbonates,including stromatolites,thrombolites and microbial-bonded granular dolomite,are developed in the study area,forming two major categories and six types of microbialite sedimentary sequences. (2)During a fourth-order sea-level fall,interactions among the concavo-convex paleogeomorphologic pattern,gradual differentiation of seawater salinity,and energy control the formation of diverse microbialite sequences. These sequences exhibit complex lithologic correlations composed of four upward-shallowing fifth-order(meter-scale)cycles: lagoon-tidal flat,lagoon-microbial mound-tidal flat,lagoon-microbial mound and lagoon-microbial mound-evaporite evaporative lagoon/tidal flat. (3)Under a fourth-order sea-level rise,microbialite sequences and lithological assemblages are relatively simple,comprising two fifth-order cycles: microbial mound and intermound sea-microbial mound. The higher accommodation space during this phase contributes to the thicker single-cycle deposition. These findings reveal the construction patterns and controlling factors of microbialite sequences under varying sea level changes,providing a foundation for the subsequent inversion of different geomorphologic units and the sedimentary environmental evolution through the analysis of microbialite sequence structures.

摘要: 微生物岩结构复杂,岩性序列组合多变,从而使环境解释具有多解性。以鄂尔多斯盆地中东部奥陶系马家沟组五段6~10亚段为例,利用系统的钻井取心和薄片资料,精细剖析不同海平面变化背景下的微生物岩序列特征,以降低沉积环境解释的不确定性。结果表明: (1)鄂尔多斯盆地中东部马五6-10亚段发育叠层石云岩、凝块石云岩和粘结颗粒云岩3类微生物碳酸盐岩,由其构成的微生物岩序列可划分为2个大类、6个小类; (2)四级海退背景下,凹凸相间的古地貌格局耦合海水盐度/能量的渐次分异控制了多样化的微生物岩序列,其岩相组合复杂,由潟湖—台坪、潟湖—微生物丘—台坪、潟湖—微生物丘、潟湖—微生物丘—蒸发潟湖/台坪4种五级(米级)变浅旋回构成; (3)四级海侵背景下形成的微生物岩序列和岩相组合相对简单,以微生物丘、丘间海—微生物丘2种五级变浅旋回为特征,且较高可容空间促使其单旋回沉积厚度更大。研究成果揭示出不同海平面变化背景下的微生物岩序列构建模式及分布控制因素,为后续利用微生物岩序列结构反演不同地貌单元和沉积环境演变奠定了基础。
