Diversity of Gold Deposits, Geodynamics and Conditions of Formation: A Perspective View
Gold occurs in a wide range of deposit types and settings. In the last decade, significant progress has been made in the definition, classification, characterization, thereby aiding understanding of the main gold deposit types.

Abstract Supracrustal greenstone belts of the Rae craton of north Baffin Island have been historically attributed to the Mary River Group (MRG), a key tectonostratigraphic unit of economic significance. Best‐preserved exposures of supracrustal rocks occur within the Eqe Bay Greenstone Belt.

Abstract Subduction zones are integral to Earth's deep water cycle, influencing magmatism, lithosphere dynamics and seismicity. They often exhibit development of extensional processes in the upper plate, which may lead to volcanic arc splitting and backarc basin opening.

Investigating the Antarctic Lithosphere Through Sp Receiver Function Analysis
Abstract To better understand the lithosphere of Antarctica, we imaged its lithosphere‐asthenosphere boundary (LAB) and crust‐mantle transition using Sp receiver functions from teleseismic events analyzed at individual stations and with common conversion point stacking. Results reveal a prominent negative velocity gradient at depths of 70–100 km across

To obtain novel information regarding normal faults that could cause tsunamis and large earthquakes on the outer slopes of the Kuril Trench, recently acquired multichannel seismic reflection (MCS) and bathymetric data are processed in this study to ...

Abstract Eastern North America has hosted significant historical earthquakes, where seismicity clusters along tectonically inherited structures. Using the spherical finite‐element code CitcomSVE and fully 3D viscosity structure, we model the intraplate stress response to glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) using ICE‐6G, both with and without low ...

Oceanic Core Complex die off and generation of enhanced mantle upwelling on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge - 22° N [PDF]
EGU2011-13199 Images of crustal construction provide a key to understand the interplay of magmatism and tectonism while oceanic crust is build up. Bathymetric data show that the crustal construction is highly variable.

Abstract The subduction interface hosts megathrust earthquakes and ductile creep, is fluid‐rich and chemically dynamic, and produces metasomatic rocks that may host episodic tremor and slow slip (ETS). However, determining the depths at which these metasomatic rocks form and deform remains challenging.

Abstract The Paleogene sedimentary basins of southeastern Tibet record sediment dispersal patterns associated with crustal deformation during the early stages of the India–Asia collision. We present detrital zircon U–Pb geochronology, tourmaline geochemistry, and petrographic data from the Gonjo and Mangkang basins that suggest a reginal interconnected
