A Reassessment of Petrochemistry of ~1.2 Ga Tonalitic Rocks of the Northern Tugela Terrane, Natal Metamorphic Belt, South Africa: Further Constraints on the Evolution of This Belt

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
Our petrochemical studies on ~1.2 Ga granitoids of the Natal Metamorphic Belt, South Africa, do not suggest any property similar to Phanerozoic‐style subduction‐related granitoids. Plot of Kotongweni Tonalite in Y versus Sr diagram (after Moyen 2011), note that most samples have Sr/Y < 50.

A tectonic model for the juxtaposition of granulite- and amphibolite-facies rocks in the Eburnean orogenic belt (Sassandra-Cavally domain, Côte d’Ivoire)

BSGF - Earth Sciences Bulletin, 2023
The Sassandra-Cavally (SASCA) domain (SW Côte d’Ivoire) marks the transition between the Archean Kenema-Man craton and the Paleoproterozoic (Rhyacian) Baoule-Mossi domain.

Tectono‐Sedimentary Evolution of the Neogene İnegöl Basin (NW Anatolia): Constraints on Transtensional Basin Development at the Junction of the Western Anatolian Extensional Province and the North Anatolian Fault Zone

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
The study outlines the tectono‐sedimentary evolution of the İnegöl Basin in north‐western Anatolia. Basin formation was controlled by interacting extensional and strike‐slip fault systems linked to uplift of the Uludağ Massif. Terrestrial sedimentation from the Miocene to Pleistocene is reconstructed using abundant fossil mammal assemblages that ...

Interface Deformation, Exhumation, and Underplating: The Role of Plate Velocity Changes Throughout the Evolution of a Subduction Zone

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
Exhumed metamorphic rocks yield critical insights into the mechanical, chemical, and thermal structure of the plate interface that can be used to infer exhumation pathways and their evolution throughout a subduction zone's lifetime. Metamorphosed oceanic

Geo-thermochronology of the Saint Antonin basin, south-eastern France

BSGF - Earth Sciences Bulletin, 2018
The clastic sedimentary formations of the Saint Antonin basin in the French Maritime Alps contain the record of the Early Oligocene erosional history of the Maures-Esterel massif, Sardinia and Corsica.

Apatite in Carbonatite Preserving Primary Magmatic, Post‐Magmatic Overgrowth, and Post India‐Asia Collision‐Related Hydrothermal Alteration: Evidenced From U–Pb Isotope and Trace Element Geochemistry

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
U–Pb isotope and trace element geochemistry of apatite from carbonatites of Peshawar Plain Alkaline Igneous Province, western Himalaya shows Permo‐Carboniferous magmatism, an additional magmatic pulse during Cretaceous, and post‐magmatic hydrothermal/metasomatism during Oligocene. ABSTRACT U–Pb isotope and trace element geochemistry of apatite combined

Hydraulic reconstruction of catastrophic drainage from the Late Glacial, Lake Fraser, British Columbia, Canada

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glacial Lake Fraser, which formed in British Columbia against the retreating Cordilleran Ice Sheet, stored ~520 km3 of water before its near‐total drainage into the Salish Sea during an outburst flood event. Despite the impact of the outburst flood on sediment transport and landscape evolution in the Fraser River valley, its peak discharge and

Heat Advection During Exhumation Can Explain High Temperatures Along the Subduction Plate Interface

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
The pressure–temperature (P−T) evolution of subduction zone plate interfaces governs metamorphism, fluid migration, deformation, and seismicity. Temperature estimates from natural rocks are frequently higher than those predicted by subduction models ...

Geochronological reconstruction of the Lateglacial deglaciation in the Arve Valley (Northern French Alps)

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The timing and spatial patterns of glaciers retreat in the Northern French Alps during the Lateglacial (19.0–11.7 ka) remain debated, reflecting discrepancies among available chronological data sets. The complex interactions between major glaciers, such as the Rhône and Arve glaciers to the north and the Isère glacier to the south, represent a

The Alps-Apennines Interference Zone: A Perspective from the Maritime and Western Ligurian Alps

Geosciences, 2021
In SW Piemonte the Western Alps arc ends off in a narrow, E-W trending zone, where some geological domains of the Alps converged. Based on a critical review of available data, integrated with new field data, it is concluded that the southern termination ...
