简介:暴露得好的Lijiatuo节被选择探索州的、主要生产率和海水硫酸盐在寒武纪的系列1-2期间铺平的海洋的氧化还原作用的时间的进化和控制,华南。这节由Xiaoyanxi形成(Fm)mudstones和LiuchapoFm组成。在斜坡和盆环境扔了的燧石。五个oxic缺氧的周期基于V/Sc,Th/U和瞬间,U,V,Ni和Cu的丰富因素被识别。中间上面的LiuchapoFm。并且中间的XiaoyanxiFm。在oxic-suboxic条件下面被扔,并且阶层的其余部分在缺氧的条件下面。Re/Mo比率证明oxic-suboxic在中间的XiaoyanxiFm调节。被短暂sulfidic条件伴随,并且节的其余部分是underanoxic和non-sulfidic条件。所有TOC和Ba,Ni,Cu,Zn和Cd的丰富因素表明了那在LiuchapoFm下沉和有机物(OM)的埋葬流动。在overlyingXiaoyanxiFm是比那低的。在XiaoyanxiFm的最高的下沉和OM的埋葬流动。出现在它的更低的部分;然而,在XiaoyanxiFm的最低下沉和OM的埋葬流动。出现在它的中间的部分。TOC/TS,TS和34间谍证明海水被低海洋的硫酸盐层次统治,它当免费H2S。大气的氧内容的上升可以是为联系、短暂suboxic-oxic并且将近的主要司机在中间的XiaoyanxiFm的sulfidic环境。
