An extensional and transtensional origin of elongated magmatic domes and localised transfer faults in the northern Menderes metamorphic core complex, western Turkey

Geodinamica Acta, 2017
The northern Menderes metamorphic core complex has complex exhumation history and is one of the key localities to investigate the spatial and temporal relationships of extensional and compressional structures.

Thermal Buffering, Heat Advection and Crustal Thinning in the Ryoke Metamorphic Complex, Yanai, Southwest Japan

Journal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 44, Issue 4, Page 287-310, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The metamorphic zoning and geothermobarometry of the Ryoke metamorphic complex in the Yanai area, southwest Japan, show that its thermobaric structure was buffered by the dehydration melting of biotite. The temperatures over most of the area covered by the three high‐grade zones (8.5‐ to 19.0‐km depth) are consistent with those of the ...

Physicochemical conditions of the formation of the Larino granite-gneiss dome (South Ural)

Georesursy
The Larino granite-gneiss dome is located on the border of the Aramil-Sukhtelya and Magnitogorsk megazones and is a two-headed anticlinal structure, the nuclear parts of which are composed of granitoids of the Pervomai and Larino massifs, and their ...

Surface Deformation of the Nanga Parbat Crustal Diapir in the Northwestern Himalaya Imaged With GNSS and InSAR

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract The Nanga Parbat–Haramosh Massif located in the northwestern syntaxis of the Himalaya is an antiformal structure considered as a crustal diapir undergoing exhumation at a rate larger than 10 mm/yr since 1 Ma. Using GNSS horizontal surface velocities and a vertical and east–west decomposition of the Sentinel‐1 interferometric line‐of‐sight ...

Exhumation tectonics of the ultrahigh-pressure metamorphic rocks in the Qinling orogen in east China: New petrological-structural-radiometric insights from the Shandong Peninsula [PDF]

, 2003
International audienceIn eastern China, the Sulu area is recognized as the eastern extension of the Qinling-Dabie Belt, which is famous for its ultrahigh-pressure (UHP) metamorphism.

Polycyclic Metamorphism, Exhumation, and Recycling of Subduction Complex Rocks, Cedros Island, Baja California

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract High‐pressure rocks from subduction complexes are key records of the physical and chemical processes that operate on the subduction interface, but interpretation of these records requires accurate structural understanding of where they formed in the subduction zone and the mechanisms by which they were exhumed. We present new geologic mapping,

Recycling Argon through Metamorphic Reactions: the Record in Symplectites [PDF]

, 2018
The 40Ar/39Ar ages of metamorphic micas that crystallized at high temperatures are commonly interpreted as cooling ages, with grains considered to have lost 40Ar via thermally-driven diffusion into the grain boundary network.

Coesite Discovery in Eclogites Confirms UHP Metamorphism in the Orlica‐Śnieżnik Dome (SW Poland)

Journal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 44, Issue 3, Page 200-225, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Eclogite lenses are exposed within the orthogneiss‐dominated core of the Orlica‐Śnieżnik Dome in the Sudetes, which forms the northeastern margin of the Bohemian Massif (Variscan Belt of Central Europe). The presence of coesite inclusions in garnet and omphacite confirms that these eclogites underwent ultrahigh‐pressure metamorphism.

PETROCHEMISTRY OF ROCKS IN THE PEGMATITE ZONE OF THE PRECAMBRIAN CENTRAL NIGERIA: AN ECONOMIC POTENTIAL PERSPECTIVE

Academy Journal of Science and Engineering, 2022
Pegmatites occur in association with amphibolites, minor granite-gneiss and quartzites in central Nigeria. Findings on their economic potentials are yet to reveal more representative and accurate depiction of their characteristics.
