Evolution of the Source Mineralogy and Lithospheric Controls on Magmatism During the Northeast Atlantic Continental Breakup

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The mid‐Norwegian Margin, part of the North Atlantic Igneous Province (NAIP), is a well‐studied volcanic rifted margin formed during the breakup between Greenland and Eurasia ∼56 Ma, with the largest accumulation of magmatic material hosted by the Vøring Margin section.

Rapid Transition From High‐Pressure Metamorphism to Exhumation Driven by Orogen‐Parallel Extensional Shearing (Adula Unit, Eastern Central Alps)

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract In the Central Alps, the Adula unit exposes high‐ and ultra‐high‐pressure (HP‐UHP) metamorphic rocks, providing key insights into the subduction and exhumation dynamics of the former distal European margin. We investigate the San Bernardino Shear Zone (SBSZ), a top‐to‐the‐east extensional shear zone developed within orthogneiss and paragneiss ...

Origin of Silicic Magmas at Kibblewhite Volcano: Implications for Bimodal Volcanism in the Kermadec Arc

open access: yesIsland Arc, Volume 35, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the origin of silicic magmas at the Kibblewhite Volcano in the Kermadec arc. Two alternative differentiation pathways are evaluated: fractional crystallization of primary basaltic magmas producing low‐Mg andesites, and fractional crystallization of primary andesitic magmas represented by magnesian andesites.

Field Mapping and Zircon U–Pb Dating of the Early Paleozoic Amphibolite‐Facies Paragneiss in the South Kitakami Belt, NE Japan: Implications for the Sedimentary and Metamorphic History of Proto‐Japan

open access: yesIsland Arc, Volume 35, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
ABSTRACT The early Paleozoic tectonic setting of proto‐Japan remains poorly constrained. In the South Kitakami Belt in Northeast Japan, Ordovician–early Silurian basement rocks and overlying Silurian–Cretaceous shallow marine sediments are widely distributed.

Los mármoles intrusivos del Complejo Oaxaqueño

open access: yesRevista Mexicana de Ciencias Geológicas, 2019
Se discute el origen del carácter a menudo intrusivo de los mármoles precámbricos del Complejo Oaxaqueño. Tomando en consideración la mineralogía, textura y estructura de dichos mármoles se concluye que estos fueron movilizados por fusión parcial ...

Ultrahigh‐Temperature Metamorphism and Near‐Isobaric Cooling of Garnet‐Orthopyroxene Granulite Xenoliths in the Sancheong Anorthosite, Yeongnam Massif, Korea

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 44, Issue 1, Page 20-46, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Elevated heat flow associated with mafic magmatism in accretionary orogens has often been proposed as a driving mechanism for (ultra)high‐temperature (UHT) metamorphism and anatexis. The Sancheong–Hadong complex, located in the southern Yeongnam Massif, Korea, consists of a ca.

Evidence for Low‐Pressure Crustal Anatexis During the Northeast Atlantic Break‐Up

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
While basaltic volcanism is dominant during rifting and continental breakup, felsic magmatism may be a significant component of some rift margins. During International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP) Expedition 396 on the continental margin of Norway, a ...

MECHANISMS OF MANTLE‐CRUST INTERACTION AT DEEP LEVELS OF COLLISION OROGENS (CASE OF THE OLKHON REGION, WEST PRIBAIKALIE)

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2017
In the Chernorud granulite zone in the Olkhon region of West Pribaikalie, we studied gabbro‐pyroxenites composing tectonic plates (Chernorud, Tonta) and synmetamorphic intrusive bodies (Ulan‐Khargana), as well as nu‐ merous disintegrated boudins and ...

Petrogenesis of Huichizi granite and hosted amphibolite lens: implications for early Paleozoic evolution of the North Qinling orogenic belt

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science
The genesis of Early Paleozoic granite and its relationship with multi-stage metamorphism in the North Qinling Tectonic Belt (NQTB) are heavily debated and limit our understanding on the evolution of the Qinling Orogenic Belt. In this paper, we conducted
