Geochronological Evidence of Pan-African Eclogites from the Central Menderes Massif, Turkey

Turkish Journal of Earth Sciences, 2010
The Menderes Massif in western Anatolia documents a complex geodynamic history from Precambrian to recent. Eclogitic relics found in metagabbros in the Precambrian basement were dated by the U/Pb method. The zircon age data from granulitic (coronitic) and eclogitic metagabbros is consistent with geological constraints as well as relative and ...

Numerical simulations of an ocean/continent convergent system: influence of subduction geometry and mantle wedge hydration on crustal recycling

, 2009
The effects of the hydration mechanism on continental crust recycling are analyzed through a 2D finite element thermo-mechanical model. Oceanic slab dehydration and consequent mantle wedge hydration are implemented using a dynamic method.

Kinematics of the Southern Rhodope Core Complex (North Greece) [PDF]

, 2007
The Southern Rhodope Core Complex is a wide metamorphic dome exhumed in the northern Aegean as a result of large-scale extension from mid-Eocene to mid-Miocene times.

Tertiary-Quaternary subduction processes and related magmatism in the Alpine-Mediterranean region [PDF]

, 2006
During Tertiary to Quaternary times, convergence between Eurasia and Africa resulted in a variety of collisional orogens and different styles of subduction in the Alpine-Mediterranean region.

Electron Spin Resonance Thermochronometry Indicates Quaternary Activity of the Brenner Fault (Eastern Alps)

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The Brenner Fault is one of the most important normal faults in the Eastern Alps as it accommodates uplift and lateral extrusion of the Tauern Window. Consequently, understanding its kinematic history is important for studying the dynamics of the Eastern Alps, in particular the Tauern Window.

Geological and mineralogical evolution of Lower Paleozoic (Late Cambrian) Corundum-Rich Metabauxite in the Southeast Sirjan, Sanandaj-Sirjan Zone

Journal of Economic Geology, 2019
Introduction Bauxite deposits in Iran are dominantly hosted by Late Triassic-Early Jurassic sequences in the Alborz zone and Late Cretaceous in the Zagros zone (e.g., Zarasvandi et al., 2008).

Geochemical and Isotopic Characteristics of the Protolith of Eclogites from the North Shahrekord Metamorphic Complex: Evidence of Late Neoproterozoic Back-arc Basin development in Sanandaj-Sirjan Zone

Journal of Economic Geology, 2019
Introduction All of the major tectonic zones of Iran, except for the Kopet-Dagh, contain Pan-African crystalline basement. Subduction of the Proto-Tethys at about 630 Ma caused Cadomian arc– and backarc magmatism in the northern margin of Gondwana ...

A Paleotectonic Atlas of the African Plate: Permian to Recent

Journal of Petroleum Geology, Volume 48, Issue 4, Page 231-279, October 2025.
ABSTRACT The fragmentary release of petroleum data defining the deep structure and stratigraphy of African basins has been integrated with existing literature to compile 19 tectonic maps over key geological intervals from Permian to Recent times. African plate margins range in their age of opening from Late Triassic (off Lebanon), through Early/Middle ...
