Comagmatic Evolution of the Boulder and Pioneer Batholiths of Southwest Montana
The tectonic region that encompasses Southwestern Montana is a petrologically complex area containing several batholiths and thrust faults, underlined by Precambrian basement rock and capped by sedimentary rocks.

: Syn-orogenic Neoproterozoic granitic magmatism (ca. 630-600 Ma) in southern Brasília Orogen includes large batholiths of compositionally expanded high-K calc-alkaline granites (lato sensu) and small occurrences constituted by anatetic leuco-granites ...

Geology of the central uplift of the Kamestastin Lake impact structure, Labrador, Canada
Abstract The ~28 km Kamestastin (Mistastin) Lake impact structure is a relatively well‐preserved and well‐exposed complex impact structure. The central uplift of this structure is accessible as two islands in the middle of Kamestastin Lake. We present an updated, detailed geological map and description of Horseshoe and Bullseye islands that provides ...

From crucible through subduction to batholiths
There are many lines of evidence to be evaluated in considering the identity and origin of primary magmas; conclusions reached cannot be valid unless they satisfy the constraints imposed by phase equilibrium experiments.

ABSTRACT The Paleoarchean Antarctic Creek Member of the Mount Ada Basalt, Eastern Pilbara Terrane, Western Australia, includes beds of jasper and white chert composed of sand‐sized silica granules that often contain or are mixed with silt‐sized particles of haematite.

Eastern part of the Central Taimyr belt is composed of Precambrian rocks penetrated by granites of the Snezhnaya complex (845–825 million years) and later overlain by mid‐Neoproterozoic sin‐ postorogenic sedimentary deposits of the Stanovaya‐Kolosova ...

Ductile Extrusion Triggered by Continental Collision in NE Brazil
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.
