摘要 | This paper discusses the origin and evolution of saline springs in north and central Laos, based on chemical and stable isotopes (delta D, delta O-18, delta B-11, and delta Cl-37). All the saline springs in this study are of the Na-Cl geochemical type. The geochemical and water isotope values suggest that the saline springs in this study are mainly derived from meteoric water and/or ice and snow melt from the surrounding mountains and that they also experienced strong evaporation and intense rock-water interactions. The ionic ratios, characteristic coefficients, ternary Ca-SO4-HCO3 phase diagrams, and saturation indices of minerals show that the dissolution of halite, sulfate, and carbonate rocks may be the solute sources for saline springs in this study, whereas the underground brines in the Thakhek potash mining area are geochemically influenced by the dissolution of carnallite and sylvite. The global geothermal delta B-11-Cl/B relationship and delta B-11 values (5.50 to 36.01 parts per thousand) of saline springs suggest a continental origin of B. This B is most likely derived from marine carbonate rocks and marine evaporates (gypsum and halite) of the late Cretaceous, which is similar to the saline springs of the Nangqen-Qamdo-Simao Salt Basin. The delta Cl-37 value (-0.12 to +0.79) and the Cl/Br ratio (4076 to 9853) show that dissolution of late cretaceous marine halite layers, atmospheric precipitation, and water-rock interactions between volcanic rocks, mudstones, and sandstone can restrict the delta Cl-37 values in saline springs. Results from silica geothermometry and multi-mineral equilibrium diagrams indicate that the reservoir temperatures for the saline springs range from 87-137 degrees C and experience deep circulation. Hydrochemical characteristic coefficients suggest that saline springs in the Muang Say basin may have leached sylvinite and carnallite and that the potash exploration prospect in this area is relatively good. |
