The air-corrected ³He/⁴He ratio of both geothermal and non-geothermal waters in the CB range from 0.10 to 6.41Ra (Ra is the atmospheric ³He/⁴He ratio), displaying an increasing trend from inland to coastal area, aligning with thinning crust and younger magmatic activities. Mantle-derived He fluxes in the CB vary from 0.11 to 33.41 × 10¹⁰ atoms m⁻²s⁻¹, surpassing those in stable continental areas by up to three orders of magnitude. Due to the absence of active volcanic surface manifestations and identifiable crustal magma chambers, the mantle-derived volatiles are possibly transported from the mantle through the faults with advective flow rates ranging from 1.26 to 154 mm y⁻¹. Two distinct modes of mantle He releases lead to differences in mantle He fluxes between the interior and coastal CB. Seismic activity enhances permeability in the interior CB, leading to the leakage of mantle He. In the coastal CB, high mantle He fluxes with characteristics of volcanic degassing imply degassing from the partial mantle melting. The presence of high ³He/⁴He ratios (up to 6.41 Ra) and regional thermal anomaly provide evidence for an ongoing process of crustal underplating by mantle melting. Combined with the underplate layer revealed by geophysical results, this implies the continuous compensation mechanism involving mantle influx to counter extension-induced crustal thinning since the Mesozoic–Cenozoic in the coastal CB.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":8064,"journal":{"name":"Applied Geochemistry","volume":"173 ","pages":"Article 106102"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-08-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141990939","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The river water samples obtained by a previous study were subjected to ¹²⁹I analyses. River water samples were collected at the midstream of the Abukuma River for five and seven times during high-flow events in July 2018 and October 2018, respectively. Suspended solids and filtered water samples were measured for ¹²⁹I/¹²⁷I ratios using an accelerator mass spectrometer system and for ¹²⁷I concentrations using ICP-MS. Aggregated mean values of dissolved ¹²⁹I concentration and ¹²⁹I concentrations in suspended solids were 0.11 μBq/L (<em>n</em> = 12) and 0.60 mBq/kg (<em>n</em> = 12), respectively. Corresponding values of ¹²⁹I/¹²⁷I ratios were in 2.2 × 10⁻⁹ (<em>n</em> = 12) and 3.7 × 10⁻⁹ (<em>n</em> = 12), respectively. These concentrations and ratios were comparable to those at the background level before the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant accident. Positive correlations with dissolved ¹³⁷Cs and Cl⁻ concentrations suggested that the dissolved ¹²⁹I concentration decreased due to dilution of the river water during the events. A positive correlation with total carbon content suggested that organic matter contents determine ¹²⁹I concentrations in suspended solids. The total ¹²⁹I fluxes during JUL18 and OCT18 were 9.9 × 10³ and 2.2 × 10⁴ Bq, respectively. Although dissolved ¹²⁹I was predominant under low-flow conditions, the particulate ¹²⁹I flux increased by one or two orders of magnitude during the peak water discharge phases.

Based on this study, REEs and geochemical prospecting indicators of alteration veins are of evident positive Eu anomaly, and are higher in concentrations of Fe₂O₃, CaO, S and TiO₂, with obvious positive U–K, Pb, P and Ti anomalies. It is very useful to catch the advanced argillic alteration lithofacies to delineate coverage of the later stage epithermal system, in which they are characterized by “U”-shape pattern normalized by chondrite as well as obviously anomalous concentrations of Cu, As, Se, Ba, Pb and Bi, with higher concentrations of K₂O, Al₂O₃ and S. Moreover, it is very valuable to discovery the intermediate argillization lithofacies to outline the mineralized center in which are typified by veinlets and brecciated hematite-magnetite silicification rock, and hematite-ferrocarbonatization rock. The mineralized center is typified by silicification altered rock in structure of veinlets-shape or the lithocap. The hydrothermal breccia zone may be an indicator of structure-lithology for the excrete channel and feeder of metallogenic fluid transportation in the epithermal system. Therefore, it is very more important that they are characterized by noticeable negative Eu anomaly (Eu*＝－0.57) and smooth-shape pattern normalized by chondrite.

In this study, based on techniques such as pore water sampling and the Tessier sequential extraction, the spatiotemporal variations in Fe, Mn, and As concentrations and possible geochemical processes at the riverbed sediment–water interface and along the river infiltration flow path were revealed. The results indicated that the potential geochemical activity of Fe, Mn, and As and the distribution of organic carbon in the riverbed sediment responded to riverbed scouring–siltation processes. Compared to the high water level period, the potential geochemical activity of Fe, Mn, As, and organic carbon in the riverbed sediment generally exhibited an upward trend during the low water level period, indicating more intense Fe and Mn biogeochemical reactions. During river infiltration, the labile organic carbon (LOC) was preferentially utilized, and with increasing depth, the sedimentary organic carbon (SOC) continuously transformed into LOC and dissolved organic carbon (DOC). Affected by riverbed scouring processes, the transition time from oxidizing to reducing conditions in the pore water increased, and the Fe, Mn, and As reduction zones moved deeper and farther from the riverbank, resulting in a significant expansion of the groundwater pollution area. The reductive dissolution of iron and manganese oxides/hydroxides and the oxidation of organic matter–bound Fe, Mn, and As were the main biogeochemical processes contributing to the release of Fe, Mn, and As in the river infiltration zone.
