Research Abstract |
The northwestern Mino Terrane, central Japan, is underlain by Mesozoic sedimentary complex with Paleozoic greenstones and carbonate rocks. Many radiolarian fossils were extracted from siliceous shale and chert in this part of the terrane. The ages range between the Permian and Jurassic. Permian radiolarians are found only from the cherts as allochthonous blocks. Triassic radiolarians are common in ribbon cherts associated with Jurassic radiolarian-bearing sedimentary rocks. Excellent radiolarians are abundant in the middle Jurassic manganese concretions in varicolored siliceous shale. Length-slow chalcedony was foun in the terrane. The mineralogic properties are examined in detail by means of the petrographic microscope, X-ray diffractometer, electron probe microanalyzer, and scanning electron microscope. The mode of occurrence of the length-slow chalcedony indicates that the Mino terrane was situated under an arid climate in the pre-Jurassic.
