The significant downward decrease in Mg2+ (low to 23.3 mmol L−1) and concurrent increase in Li+ (up to 2,269 μmol L−1) in sedimentary pore fluids implied a substantial influence of hydrothermal fluid, which might be associated with high-temperature (>350 °C) rock/sediment-fluid interaction. The best fitting of the 1-D advection-diffusion equation to pore-fluid Cl−, Mg2+, and Li+ concentrations further evidenced the upward hydrothermal through sediments with rates of 0.13 ∼ 124 cm yr−1. The apparently Cl-depleted and slightly Cl-enriched pore fluids in the GLM and MHV hydrothermal fields supported the occurrence of subseafloor phase separation and classified their hydrothermal fluids into vapor-rich and brine-rich phases, respectively. The low pH values (pH = 5.67 ∼ 6.21) with downward increasing trends of pore-fluid dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC, up to 60 mmol L−1) and its heavy isotopic compositions (δ13CDIC = +2.5 ∼ +7.0 ‰) inferred in-situ liquid CO2-impregnated sedimentary circumstance in the GLM and MHV hydrothermal fields. This sedimentary environment, as demonstrated, enhanced the chemical weathering of silicate and carbonate minerals, resulting in the elevated concentrations of Ca2+ and K+ in pore fluids. It highlights the impact of acidic and in-situ CO2-saturated fluids within sediments on geochemical alterations of bulk solids/sediments and interstitial fluids. |
