英文摘要 | The Jianghan Basin, Central China, contains a thick, continuous sequence of early Cenozoic evaporite-bearing deposits that provide a wealth of information about early Cenozoic climate change and evaporites accumulation in East Asia. However, the paleoclimatic history of the basin and its effect on the evaporites are largely unknown. We obtained a deep drill core (SKD1, 2346.5 m long) from the late Cretaceous to early Eocene evaporite-bearing deposits in the Jianghan Basin. Detailed analyses of the lithofacies, mineralogy and geochemistry of the core indicate that salinization and deepening of the lake occurred (corresponding to the Yuyang Formation to the lower Xingouzui Formation), followed by desalting and shallowing (corresponding to the upper Xingouzui Formation). Reconstruction of the spatiotemporal evolution of the evaporites in the Jiangling depression suggests a transition from semi-arid conditions in the late Cretaceous to extremely arid conditions in the initial stage of the Eocene. The climate then became semi-humid during the deposition of the upper Xingouzui Formation, indicating a monsoon or monsoon-like climate in East Asia during the early Eocene. The southward migration of the depocenter of the Jiangling depression, coupled with a warm and extremely arid climate, resulted in the precipitation of evaporites during the accumulation of the upper Shashi Formation and the lower Xingouzui Formation. These results indicate great potential for identifying potash resources within the subsag in the southern Jiangling depression. |
