Composition and Provenance of Victoria Group Sandstones in Southern North Victoria Land, Antarctica

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 3, September 2026.
Three distinct source areas contributed to sandstones of the Victoria Group within the Transantarctic Basin in southern North Victoria Land. During the Permian, quartzose sandstones were derived from erosion of the local Ross Orogen, likely from an uplifted swell in the area of today's Ross Sea, the Ross High.

Geochemistry, Petrology and Zircon U-Pb Dating for Bibi Maryam Granitoid, NE of Nehbandan, East of Iran

open access: yesJournal of Economic Geology, 2011
Bibi Maryam granitoid body with about 5 Km2 has intruded into ophiolite mélange complex in sistan suture zone, in east of Iran. Thermal effects of this body on the host rocks show that this activity occurred after emplacement of ophiolite mélange ...

Reconnaissance Investigation of Sedimentation Patterns in a Small Modern Anthropogenically Influenced Inlet, Otūwhero Estuary, Abel Tasman National Park, New Zealand

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 3, September 2026.
The structurally controlled Otūwhero estuary on the SE boundary of Abel Tasman National Park is a small partially filled incised valley. The small size, limited number of fluvial inputs, accessibility and surrounding land use made it an ideal candidate on which to investigate potential climate‐induced estuarine behaviour. Surficial sediment samples and

The role of crustal and mantle sources in the genesis of granitoids of the Antarctic Peninsula and adjacent crustal blocks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Magmatic rocks from the Antarctic Peninsula show marked variations in isotope composition, which reflect changes in the geodynamic evolution of the peninsula through time. Most Antarctic Peninsula granitoids formed as a result of subduction: they fall on

Petrology of Pirin granitoids

open access: yesGeologica Balcanica, 1989
On the basis of spatial relationships, petrological and structural studies, accessory-mineralogical, geochemical and paleogeophysical data, the following groups of plutons are distinguished in Pirin Mountain: Spančevo (of probable Late Proterozoic age), Bezbog (Southbulgarian type, Hercynian age) and young – Central Pirin (Central Pirin and Dautovo ...

Geochronological Constraints on Diachronous Post‐Collisional Slab Breakoff Along the Paleo‐Tethyan Sutures

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The slab breakoff model is a preferred geodynamic interpretation for post‐collisional exhumation and associated magmatic flare‐ups. In this study, rutile U–Pb dating of retrograde eclogites revealed distinct stages of exhumation along the Paleo‐Tethyan sutures in southwest China. The studied samples yielded ages of 246.7 ± 8.5 and 239.7 ± 14.0

Reconstructing Along‐Strike Variability of Retreating Accretionary Margins Using Detrital Isotopic Proxies in Patagonia and Japan

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Retreating accretionary systems are common features of convergent plate margins. They are characterized by upper plate extension and backarc basin formation, which often forms diachronously and asymmetrically along‐strike. This study tests the hypothesis that this along‐strike variability in backarc basin formation is reflected in detrital and

The inclusion of grothite in the zircon from granitoids of the crystalline basement of the Southern Yamal Peninsula

open access: yesVestnik MGTU, 2019
Grothite – rare F-Al-rich type of titanite – has been found in accessory zircon from the granitoids of the pre-Jurassic basement of the Verkhnerechensky oil-gas area (in the southern part of the Yamal Peninsula) as a result of the study.

Petrogenesis and Tectonic Implication of the Newly Identified Rhyacian and Orosirian Orthogneisses in the Northwestern Part of the Gyeonggi Massif (Soyeonpyeongdo and Ganghwado Areas), South Korea: Constrained From Whole‐Rock Geochemistry and Zircon U‐Pb‐Hf Isotopic Compositions

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The Gyeonggi Massif is one of the major Precambrian basements in the Korean Peninsula where Paleoproterozoic orthogneiss and paragneiss were widely exposed. In this study, newly identified Rhyacian to Orosirian meta‐igneous rocks from the northwestern Gyeonggi Massif (Soyeonpyeongdo and Ganghwado areas) were investigated to elucidate their ...
