Beach Gold and Heavy Mineral Concentrates on Tiwai Spit Gravel Strand Plain, Southland, New Zealand
New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 3, September 2026.The Holocene Tiwai Spit on Foveaux Strait is a 12 km by 2 km gravel‐dominated strand plain, ∼10 m above present sea level. Gravel clasts are dominated by well‐rounded quartz cobbles, pebbles and granules derived from Otago Schist 200 km to the north in evolving river drainage systems during late Cenozoic.

Cryptic Superfine Placer Gold Populations, Round Hill Mine, Southern New Zealand
New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 3, September 2026.Superfine (50–<1 µm) detrital gold and platinum group mineral (PGM) particles at the Round Hill mine near Foveaux Strait were locally derived (<20 km) from as‐yet undefined basement sources. This superfine component contrasts with the dominant coarser (typically >100 µm) gold and PGM particles at the mine that have been transported for >100 km in ...

The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 8, Page 1995-2048, August 2026.Abstract Despite documented ecomorphological shifts toward an herbivorous diet in several coelurosaurian lineages, the evolutionary tempo and mode of these changes remain poorly understood, hampered by sparse cranial materials for early representatives of major clades. This is particularly true for Therizinosauria, with representative crania best known

RUDN Journal of Engineering Research, 2015 The first results of U/Pb (LA-ICP-MS) dating of detrital zircons from quartz sandstones of the Devonian Takaty Formation are presented. The obtained ages span a range from 1857.5 ± 53.8 to 3054.0 ± ± 48.0 Ma.

Mesozoic–Cenozoic Thermochronology of the Tarim–Southern Tianshan System, NW China
Geological Journal, Volume 61, Issue 8, Page 2258-2278, August 2026.Tectonothermal history of the Tarim–Southern Tianshan system compared with the major tectonic events at far‐field plate margins. ABSTRACT The Tarim Basin, an oil‐bearing basin in northwest China, is tectonically and sedimentologically linked to the Southern Tianshan Orogenic Belt.

From Highlands to Henge: Refining the Provenance and Transport Pathways of Stonehenge's Altar Stone
Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 6, Page 888-895, August 2026.ABSTRACT The Altar Stone, the 6000 kg central sandstone megalith at Stonehenge in southern England, is suggested to have originated from the Orcadian Basin in northeast Scotland, some 700 km away. However, its source location within this large basin remains unresolved and its mode of transport uncertain.

Exhumed eo‐Alpine High‐Pressure Rocks Fed Campanian Turbidites in Eastern Sardinia
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.Abstract This study investigates the detrital record of the early orogenic evolution of the Sardinia‐Calabria system, preserved in Upper Cretaceous arenites exposed in eastern Sardinia. Sardinia and Corsica form a continental block that includes a segment of the Alpine orogen and of its former foreland basin.
