Multi‐Method Geochronology and P‒T Modeling Unravels the Thermo‐Tectonic History of the Rudall Province, Western Australia

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The Rudall Province (RP) is a Paleo‐Mesoproterozoic belt that records numerous overprinting tectono‐metamorphic events. Situated on the eastern edge of the West Australian Craton (WAC), the RP represents a key area for understanding the Proterozoic assembly and subsequent tectonic history of Western Australia.

Assessing Pb Isotopic Equilibrium Between Apatite and K‐Feldspar

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Quantifying common Pb, the non‐radiogenic Pb present in a mineral independent of in situ U decay, is essential for obtaining accurate U–Pb ages in common Pb‐bearing minerals such as apatite. However, constraining the amount and composition of common Pb, as well as the timing of its entrapment, remains a persistent challenge.

Low Water Content of the Lower Continental Crust Induced by Decompression Melting: Evidence From the Weichang Granulite Xenoliths in the Northern North China Craton

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The water content of granulite xenoliths from the Cenozoic Weichang basalts in the northern North China Craton (NCC) is investigated to constrain the nature and evolution of the lower crust. Granulites are categorized into felsic and mafic groups, characterized by widely developed glass‐bearing sieve textures in their constituent minerals ...

TRANSALP—A transect through a young collisional orogen: Introduction

Tectonophysics, 2006
TRANSALP is a multidisciplinary and international research programme for investigating the deep structure and evolution of the Eastern Alps (Fig. 1) as a paradigmatic example for mountain building by continent–continent collision. The Alps as the youngest and highest mountain range in Europe have always been a challenge for geoscientists, and have ...

Subduction System Response to Ribbon Collision: Implications on the Intra‐Plate Force Balance and the Style of Slab Deformation

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Ribbon collision is a process that can rapidly disturb the symmetry of subduction zones. Previous studies have demonstrated how ribbon collision causes rotation at the surface and contortion in the slab, but have only focused on the surface kinematics.

Crustal Structure of Laurentia and Peri‐Gondwanan Terranes Beneath Ireland and Britain and Comparison With Eastern North America

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The Appalachian‐Caledonian orogen was built during the Paleozoic by accretion of peri‐Gondwanan terranes onto Laurentia, culminating in the formation of Pangea. During the Mesozoic, Pangea broke apart, displacing one section of the belt to eastern North America and another to northwestern Europe.

Evolution and Provenance of the Polish Rotliegend in the Southern Permian Basin

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The Southern Permian Basin (SPB) has been extensively explored for ore deposits. However, a comprehensive evaluation of the remaining copper potential, specifically for sediment‐hosted stratiform copper system, remains lacking. This study applies goSPL, an open‐source landscape and stratigraphic evolution model, to reconstruct the Permian rift‐

Late Mesozoic rifting at the flanks of the Dzhagda segment of the Mongolia-Okhotsk collisional orogen: global and regional aspects

Геодинамика и тектонофизика, 2017
The role of rifting in the formation of the recent structure of the Mongolia-Okhotsk orogen is extremely high, but it is still underestimated with regard to flanks of the Dzhagda segment of this orogen.

Young orogenic gold mineralisation in active collisional mountains, Taiwan

Mineralium Deposita, 2010
Gold-bearing vein systems in the high mountains of Taiwan are part of the youngest tectonic-hydrothermal system on Earth. Tectonic collision initiated in the Pliocene has stacked Eocene–Miocene marine sedimentary rocks to form steep mountains nearly 4 km high.

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

Tectonics, 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 ...
