Geo-structural map of the Laguna Blanca basin (Southern Central Andes, Catamarca, Argentina) [PDF]
The Laguna Blanca basin is a rhomb-shaped basin located at the SE margin of the Puna plateau in the southern Central Andes (Catamarca, Argentina). An interactive analysis using remote sensing and field mapping enabled us to produce a geo-structural map ...

U-Pb SHRIMP zircon dating of Grenvillian metamorphism in Western Sierras Pampeanas (Argentina) : correlation with the Arequipa-Antofalla craton and constraints on the extent of the Precordillera Terrane [PDF]
The Sierras Pampeanas of Argentina, the largest outcrop of pre-Andean crystalline basement in southern South America, resulted from plate interactions along the proto-Andean margin of Gondwana, from as early as Mesoproterozoic to Late Paleozoic times (e ...

Geochemistry and Petrogenesis of Metabasites from the Votuverava Group (Apiaí Terrane, Southern Ribeira Belt): Evidence of a Calymmian Back-arc Basin Frederico [PDF]
The Votuverava Group (ca. 1500 - 1400 Ma), which is part of the Apiaí Terrane, a segment of the Southern RibeiraBelt, is composed of distal turbidites with signifi cant basic magmatism represented by concordant lenses of metabasite.Twenty metabasite ...

Evidence of a Temperature-dependent ‘Blueschist' to ‘Eclogite' Transformation in High-pressure Metamorphism of Metabasic Rocks [PDF]
Textures in the blueschist metabasic rocks of the island of Syros, Greece, indicate a reaction forming omphacite and garnet from earlier glaucophane and epidote.
