    基于X-CT技术的含矿岩石内部信息成像方法研究

    Research on Imaging Method of Internal Information of Ore-bearing Rocks Based on X-CT Technology

    • 摘要: X射线计算机断层成像(X-CT)技术作为一种无损、高分辨率的三维成像方法,已被广泛应用于临床医学和工业检测领域。在地学领域,X-CT技术被用于实现油气岩芯数字建模,在数字岩芯孔隙结构分析和渗流特性研究中表现出良好的应用前景,但目前该方法在含矿岩石内部信息成像方面的研究较少。本文选取一块矿物组成复杂的条带状铌稀土萤石矿石及两块矿物组成相近的岩芯为研究对象,应用X-CT技术进行扫描成像,利用锥束投影重建(FDK)算法重建二维灰度图像序列,依据不同矿物的密度差异分割二维灰度图像,建立含矿岩石的内部信息提取模型,进而统计分析样品及各矿物组分的体积。得出以下结论①根据成像结果显示,X-CT技术对岩石样品的几何形态具有较高的适应性,以本文选用的岩石样品为例,工业CT设备对岩石样品的扫描最高分辨率可达45 μm;②本文样品分割结果图像的灰度采用16位灰度值表示,对比3块不同样品的灰度范围,发现矿物组成复杂且密度接近的岩石,其内部矿物的灰度值相近,而矿物组成相对简单且密度差异较大的样品,其灰度值表现出更广的分布范围;③对比两块矿物组成相近的岩芯分析结果,发现对于不同的岩芯,其扫描参数不同,它们中的同种矿物会表现出不同的灰度范围,而对于同一岩芯中的不同矿物,其密度差异越大,在灰度图像上的差异越显著,越容易提取。

       

      Abstract: X-ray computed tomography (X-CT), a non-destructive and high-resolution three-dimensional imaging method, is widely used in clinical medicine and industrial inspection. In the field of geoscience, X-CT has been used to digitally model oil and gas cores and has potential for analyzing pore structures and seepage characteristics of digital cores. However, research on internal imaging of ore-bearing rocks using this method remains relatively limited. In this study, banded niobium-rare earth-fluorite ore with a complex composition and two mineralogically similar rock cores were selected as research objects. X-CT was used for scanning imaging, and a series of two-dimensional grayscale images were reconstructed using the cone-beam projection reconstruction (Feldkamp–Davis–Kress) algorithm. These images were segmented based on the density differences of the samples and internal information extraction models for ore-bearing rocks were established. The volumes of the samples and each mineral component were analyzed statistically. The following conclusions were drawn: (1) X-CT demonstrated high adaptability to the geometric morphologies of the rock samples. Taking these rock samples as a representative case, the industrial CT system employed achieved a maximum spatial resolution of 45 μm for sample scanning. (2) The grayscale of the segmented images was represented by 16-bit grayscale values. A comparison of the grayscale ranges of the samples showed that rocks with complex mineral compositions and similar densities exhibited similar grayscale values for internal minerals, whereas for samples with relatively simple mineral compositions and significant density differences, the grayscale values showed a wider distribution range. (3) The analysis results of the two mineralogically similar rock cores were compared, revealing that the same mineral exhibited different grayscale ranges for different cores scanned under different parameters. In contrast, for different minerals in the same core, the greater the density difference, the more significant the difference in the grayscale images and the easier it was to extract.
