Ductile Extrusion Triggered by Continental Collision in NE Brazil

open access: yesTerra Nova, Volume 38, Issue 4, Page 266-277, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The Borborema Province in northeastern Brazil hosts one of the world's largest strike‐slip shear zone networks, active during the late Neoproterozoic assembly of West Gondwana. Whether these shear zones initiated during active continental collision or as a post‐orogenic response to far‐field stresses remains debated.

Dynamic Deglacial Evolution of Interior Seaways and Ice Streams in the Weddell Sea Embayment

open access: yesPaleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Improving our understanding of Antarctic glacial dynamics is essential for accurately predicting ice sheet behavior and its contribution to global sea level rise under future climate scenarios. The Weddell Sea Embayment, which channels ice from East Antarctica, West Antarctica, and the Antarctic Peninsula into the Filchner‐Ronne Ice Shelf, is ...

Why allanite may swindle about its true age

open access: yes, 2003
Allanite from the Tertiary Rieserferner pluton (Austrian Alps) is texturally and chemically heterogeneous. Continuous covariation trends reflect coupled substitution of Ca+Al vs.

Site splitting at M3 in allanite-(Ce)

open access: yes, 2022
We report the crystal structure of allanite-(Ce), with composition (Ca1.0REE0.90.1)(sigma 2.0)(Al1.46Fe0.523+Fe0.762+Mg0.12Ti0.15)(sigma 3.01)Si3O12(OH) from the Xinfeng rare earth element (REE)-bearing granite in Guangdong Province, China.

The Encantada Granite: registration of a peraluminous intrusion in the Rondonian Province - San Ignacio, in SW Amazonic Craton, Mato Grosso, Brazil [PDF]

open access: yesGeologia USP. Série Científica, 2015
The Encantada Granite occurs on the extreme southwest of the state of Mato Grosso, SW of the Amazonian Craton, near the border of Brasil/Bolívia. It corresponds to an body oriented to NNW direction that intruded metasedimentary and metavolcanic rocks ...

Progressively Fenitised Schist and Carbonatitic Clasts From a Metasomatic Aureole Beneath the Alkalic Dunedin Volcano, Otago, New Zealand

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.
Clasts of albite‐porphyroblastic quartzofeldspathic schist, derived from the Otago Schist basement, occur within the Port Chalmers Breccia, a diatreme at the centre of the Dunedin stratovolcano, New Zealand. Schists have undergone varying degrees of replacement reactions (at temperatures of 300° to >500°C) producing hornfelses, with Ca‐ and K‐enriched ...

Provenance and Petrological Evolution of Sand Injection Complexes: Insights From Heavy Mineral Analysis in the Paleogene Forearc Succession of the San Joaquin Basin

open access: yesBasin Research, Volume 38, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
The study of heavy mineral assemblages with statistical analysis resolves provenance signatures and quantifies syn‐emplacement modification of sand injection complexes. Results demonstrate transformative petrological processes, including density‐dependent hydraulic sorting and mechanical grain degradation.

Timing of Metamorphism and Deformation in the Neoarchean Quetico Metasedimentary Belt, Superior Craton, Constrained by Garnet Trace‐Element Mapping and Lu–Hf Geochronology

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 44, Issue 4, Page 265-286, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The Quetico subprovince of the Superior Province is among the largest metasedimentary belts globally and provides evidence of tectonic processes at play during the final stages of Archean cratonization. Although previous studies have shown that deformation and metamorphism of the 2.7‐Ga turbiditic protolith resulted in regional subvertical ...

SHRIMP allanite U-Th-Pb dating of bimodal Triassic metamorphism of Neoarchean tonalitic gneisses, Daeijak Island, central Korea

open access: yes, 2016
The microstructures, compositions and U-Th-Pb ages of allanite from tonalitic gneisses in a Neoarchean migmatite complex, Daeijak Island, central Korea, have been investigated. Allanite crystals up to ∼300 μm in diameter occur with accessory apatite,
