Heat Transfer and Production in Cratonic Continental Crust: U‐Pb Thermochronology of Xenoliths From the Siberian Craton

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2022
Coupled U‐Pb and trace‐element analyses of accessory phases in crustal xenoliths from the Late Devonian Udachnaya kimberlite (Siberian craton, Russia) are used to constrain Moho temperature and crustal heat production at the time of kimberlite eruption ...

The development of magmatism along the Cameroon Volcanic Line: evidence from seismicity and seismic anisotropy [PDF]

, 2014
The Cameroon Volcanic Line (CVL) straddles the continent-ocean boundary in West Africa but exhibits no clear age progression. This renders it difficult to explain by traditional plume/plate motion hypotheses; thus, there remains no consensus on the ...

U-Pb SHRIMP zircon dating of Grenvillian metamorphism in Western Sierras Pampeanas (Argentina) : correlation with the Arequipa-Antofalla craton and constraints on the extent of the Precordillera Terrane [PDF]

, 2006
The Sierras Pampeanas of Argentina, the largest outcrop of pre-Andean crystalline basement in southern South America, resulted from plate interactions along the proto-Andean margin of Gondwana, from as early as Mesoproterozoic to Late Paleozoic times (e ...

U-Pb evidence for late Neoarchean crustal reworking in the Southern São Francisco Craton (Minas Gerais, Brazil)

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2003
The Passa Tempo Metamorphic Complex is one of several metamorphic complexes that form the Archean sialic crust of the southern São Francisco Craton. It encompasses hypersthene-bearing gneissic rocks, with subordinateNW- or EW-trending mafic-ultramafic ...
