Late Cenozoic Convergence Between the Pamir and the Tianshan Revealed by Low‐Temperature Thermochronology

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The Cenozoic India–Eurasia collision drove widespread deformation across Central Asia, culminating in northward indentation of the Pamir and its eventual contact with the South Tianshan. However, the timing and kinematics of Pamir–Tianshan convergence, as well as its influence on regional topography and climate, remain debated. Here, we report

The Relationships between Greenstone Belts and the Kryvyi Rih–Kremenchuk Basin in the Middle Dnieper Domain of the Ukrainian Shield Revealed by Detrital Zircon

Geosciences
Detrital zircons from two samples of metasandstones from the Lykhmanivka Syncline, Middle Dnieper Domain of the Ukrainian Shield (Skelevate Formation of the Kryvyi Rih Group), have been dated by the LA-ICP-MS U-Pb method. Metasandstones from the northern

Exhumation History of the Sangre de Cristo Range, Colorado, From Mid‐ to Low‐Temperature Thermochronology: New Insights Into Laramide Contraction and Oligocene–Miocene Extension in the Northern Rio Grande Rift, USA

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The Sangre de Cristo Range in southern Colorado records a complex tectonic history that includes Late Cretaceous–Eocene Laramide contraction and Oligocene–Quaternary Rio Grande rift extension. We present new thermochronologic data (40Ar/39Ar, fission‐track, (U‐Th)/He) and thermal history models that provide insight into this polyphase history ...

Linkages between the southern Patagonia Pre-Permian basements: new insights from detrital zircons U-Pb SHRIMP ages from the Cerro Negro District

Geologica Acta, 2014
The Patagonian basement rocks are dominated by Precambrian to Early Paleozoic metamorphic rocks intruded by Paleozoic granitoids. Recently discovered basement rocks in the Cerro Negro District are characterized mainly by quartz-muscovite-chlorite schists;

Ediacaran–Cambrian High‐Strain Melt‐Present Deformation of the Archean Charcot Province, East Antarctica

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The assembly of Gondwana involved several Pan‐African orogens, although their extension into ice‐covered Antarctica remains contentious. Particularly problematic is our understanding of the Kuunga orogenic system in East Antarctica, including its eroded architecture and temporal evolution. The remote Charcot Province, at the easternmost extent

Longevity and Reactivation of Intracontinental Walled Basins: Thermochronologic Evidence From Western Mongolia

Basin Research, Volume 38, Issue 4, July–August 2026.
Permian–Jurassic tectonism produced cooling ages preserved in Mesozoic strata of the Dzereg and Dariv basins. Thermal modeling indicates mid‐Cretaceous and late Cenozoic basin inversion and cooling synchronous with bounding‐range exhumation, supporting a long‐lived source‐to‐sink relationship and persistent inherited relief since the Jurassic ...

Re-discussion on the detrital zircon provenance of the lower Yanchang Formation in the southern Ordos Basin

Open Geosciences, 2016
The Ordos Basin is the second largest sedimentary basin in China. The Yanchang Formation is the key oilbearing layer in the Ordos Basin. The stratigraphic time interval and the stratigraphic division of the Yanchang Formation has been highly debated with

Thermal and Structural Reconstruction of an Eroded Foreland Basin: Central Appalachian Basin, USA

Basin Research, Volume 38, Issue 4, July–August 2026.
New low‐temperature thermochronology and modelling reveal a complex thermal history for the central Appalachian Basin. Results indicate Carboniferous exhumation of the fold‐thrust belt and Mesozoic heating in the foredeep linked to the Rome Trough. Deeply buried Devonian source rocks were consequently pushed past the peak oil and gas windows.

The Ames impact structure, Oklahoma: New radioisotopic constraints and implications for North American impact chronology

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 8, Page 2103-2139, August 2026.
Abstract The Ames impact structure (Oklahoma) is thought to have formed during the Ordovician Meteor Event, based on conodont biostratigraphy of its crater fill. Here, U–Pb zircon dates from its impact‐melt portion, conducted using secondary ion mass spectrometry and laser ablation–inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometry (n = 37 spots), yield a ...

Climate conditions on the South‐Iberian Palaeomargin during the latest Pliensbachian to early Toarcian: A mineralogical and geochemical study from hemipelagic deposits

Sedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 5, Page 1631-1663, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The integrated analysis of lithofacies, mineralogy and geochemistry of the hemipelagic marine succession exposed in La Cerradura section (South‐Iberian Palaeomargin) provides new information to characterise the palaeoenvironmental conditions during the latest Pliensbachian to early Toarcian, including the Jenkyns Event.
