由克拉通、造山带、裂谷、边缘海洋壳和岛弧等5大岩石圈类型构成的中国大陆,由于不同类型岩石圈对应的动力学机制及其效应不同,岩石圈不同类型之间的连接带必定是不连续带,与大陆成矿作用有密切的联系。中国大陆已知的绝大多数金属矿床分布于岩石圈不连续和再活化不连续处,表明岩石圈不连续为大型矿床(矿集区)形成提供有利的运-储空间。中国大陆西北、中国东部和西南地区构造-岩浆-成矿事件序列对比表明,一个地区岩石圈的壳-幔岩石学结构、大规模成矿作用,取决于最强的、最后一次的岩浆作用,大规模成矿作用的发生起始于造山岩石圈根失稳、去根和大规模软流圈上涌时期,C型埃达克岩的出现是其标志之一。分布于中国内陆的扬子、鄂尔多斯、塔里木和准噶尔盆地等地表热流值低的“冷盆”,深部属于克拉通型岩石圈背景,在构造上往往为造山带的前陆盆地,克拉通型岩石圈构造上的稳定性决定了这些克拉通盆地不断被周围造山带吞食、掩埋、改造的格局,虽然在这些盆地内如今都已发现油气田,但在盆地外那些现今被造山带前缘逆冲体覆盖的区域,也应该是油气田产出的有利区域,即盆地外造山带花岗岩下依然是寻找油气田的重要远景区。分布于中国东部的平原区和黄海、东海及南海等陆缘海区,属于地表热流值高的“热盆”,这些盆地下对应的是裂谷型或洋壳型岩石圈,它们是在新生代时期中国东部沿海地区进入了新的构造演化阶段——大陆裂谷作用下形成的,以伴随广泛的玄武岩喷发为标志,对流地幔物质和热输入使盆地热流值升高成为“热盆”、大陆裂谷型岩石圈,乃至洋壳岩石圈(如南海中央海盆);伴随裂陷作用及伸展构造普遍发育的幔源玄武岩浆大量喷发,以及大量沉积物的快速沉积、埋藏有利于油气田的形成,其中的组分,如CO2气田中的CO2可能主要源于地幔。中国东部平原及边缘海区域是最具前景的油气田分布区之一。 Due to the different dynamics and corresponding effects of different types of lithosphere, the connection between different types of lithosphere in the mainland of China, consisting of five large lithospheric types of craton, orogenic belt, rift, marginal oceanic crust and island arc, The belt must be a discontinuous belt, which is closely related to the mineralization in the mainland. The vast majority of metallogenic deposits known in Mainland China are located in the discontinuous and reactivated discontinuities of the lithosphere, indicating that the lithosphere discontinuities provide a favorable transport-storage space for the formation of large deposits (ore deposits). The sequence comparison of tectonic-magmatic-metallogenic events in northwestern China, eastern China and southwestern China shows that the crust-mantle petrological structure and large-scale mineralization of the lithosphere in a region depend on the strongest and last magmatic activity, The occurrence of large-scale metallogenesis begins with the instability of the orogenic rhizosphere, the emergence of C-adakites and the removal of roots and large-scale asthenospheric upwelling. The “cold basins” with low surface heat flow values, such as the Yangtze, Erdos, Tarim and Junggar basins in inland China, belong to the craton-type lithosphere in the depths, and are often characterized by the orogenic belt foreland basin, cratonic rock The structural stability of the ring determines the pattern of these cratonic basins continuously being swallowed, buried and rebuilt by the surrounding orogenic belts. Although oil and gas fields are now found in these basins, The covered area should also be a favorable area for the production of oil and gas fields. That is, under the granite in the outer orogenic belt of the basin, it is still an important prospect area for finding oil and gas fields. They are distributed in the plain areas of eastern China and the marginal sea areas such as the Yellow Sea, the East China Sea and the South China Sea. They belong to the “hot basins” with high surface heat flow values. These basins correspond to rift or oceanic crust lithosphere, During the period, the eastern China coastal region entered a new tectonic evolution stage formed by the continental rifting. With the widespread basalt eruption, the convective mantle material and heat input increased the heat flow in the basin to become a hot basin. Rift-type lithosphere and even oceanic crust lithosphere (such as the South China Sea Central Basin). With the widespread eruption of mantle-derived basaltic magmas with rifting and extensional structures and rapid deposition and burial of a large amount of sediments, it is beneficial to the formation of oil and gas fields, Components such as CO2 in the CO2 gas field may originate mainly from the mantle. China’s eastern plains and marginal seas are one of the most promising oil and gas fields.
