The Middle Jurassic Xishanyao Formation, located in the southern Junggar Basin of northwestern China, has geological conditions with rich CBM resources. The 46 Xishanyao coal samples gathered from the drilling cores and coal mines cover 4 types of macrolithotypes (bright coal 1, semi-bright coal 2, semi-dull coal 3, and dull coal 4) and 2 types of coal structures (primary coal I and cataclastic coal II). Based on a range of pore testing experiments and analytical methods, the dual effects of different macrolithotypes and coal structures on pore structures were intensely studied. The results showed that the specific surface area (SSA) and total pore volume (TPV) of coal samples increased gradually from bright to dull coals. For the same macrolithotypes, the SSA and TPV of the primary coals were lower than those of the cataclastic coals. Generally, the pore structures of bright and semi-bright coals are simpler when compared to semi-dull and dull coals with the same coal structure, whereas cataclastic coals have more complicated pore structure systems than primary coals with the same macrolithotypes. The bright and semi-bright coals have higher vitrinite contents and more endogenous fractures, whereas well-developed structural fractures were identified in cataclastic coals. Therefore, bright and semi-bright coals have better pore connectivity than semi-dull and dull coals with the same coal structure, the pore connectivity of cataclastic coals being slightly better than that of primary coals under the same macrolithotypes. In terms of the CBM adsorption conditions, the eight type samples formed a descending order: II-4 &gt; I-4 &gt; II-3 &gt; I-3 &gt; II-2 &gt; I-2 &gt; II-1 &gt; I-1, while they ranked as follows when consideration was given to the CBM seepage capacities: II-2 &gt; II-1 &gt; I-2 &gt; I-1 &gt; I-3 &gt; I-4 &gt; II-3 &gt; II-4. As a result, it could be determined that the bright and semi-bright coals had stronger adsorption capacities, whereas the cataclastic coals had better pore connectivity and seepage capacities.

First, the platform was divided by strike-slip fault into three segments to show rimmed, week rimmed and no-rimmed platform. Second, reef-shoal complex devolped along the faulted high position in the strike-slip fault zone, and separated by faulted depression.

Our study employs zircon Lu-Hf and bulk rock Sr-Nd isotopes, along with mineral geochemistry, to track the melt sources of the Nymo intrusive complex and the role of mantle magma during the early Eocene flare-up of the Gangdese arc, Tibet. The Nymo intrusive complex is composed of gabbronorite, diorite, quartz diorite, and granodiorite which define an arc-related calc-alkaline suite.

Together with published data, the early Eocene magmatic flare-up was likely triggered by slab breakoff of subducted oceanic lithosphere at depths shallower than the overriding plate.

This study, through a comprehensive review of MVT deposits across global fold-and-thrust belts, introduces a novel model elucidating the mineralization process in the context of tectonic belt evolution. It is demonstrated that during the stage I, regional compression is introduced by early stages of plate convergence, causing the folding and thrusting and creating structural or lithological traps such as evaporite diapirs and unconformity-related carbonate dissolution-collapse structures. Thereafter, in stage II, hydrocarbons begin to migrate and accumulate within these traps, where reduced sulfur is generated through thermochemical or bacterial sulfate reduction concurrent with or preceding Zn-Pb mineralization. In the subsequent stage III, as plate convergence persists, the regional stress transitions from compression to transpression or extension. Under these conditions, steeply-dipping extensional faults are generated, facilitating the ascent of metalliferous brines into early-formed structural or lithological traps.
