U–Pb Dating of Cambrian Magmatism in the Pinerolo‐Sanfront Unit, Dora‐Maira Massif (Western Alps)

Terra Nova, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Pinerolo‐Sanfront Unit (PSU), the structurally lowest tectonic unit of the Dora‐Maira Massif (Western Alps), has been regarded as a monocyclic unit composed of Permo‐Carboniferous sediments and Permian granitoids that were metamorphosed during the Alpine orogeny.

Progress in the Application of Oxygen Isotopes in the Study of Petrogenesis

Yankuang ceshi, 2013
Since different types of rocks on the earth have different oxygen isotope compositions, they can be used to discuss the origins of various rocks and it has become a powerful tool for studying petrology.

Comparison of the Thermometery-Barometery methods by using Thermocalc and Theriak-domino to study Calc- silicate Hornfelses in Cheshin, Hamedan

Journal of Economic Geology, 2019
Introduction The pseudo-section method, first proposed by Hensen (1971), is used today by scientists to determine the thermodynamic conditions of mineral crystallization and modeling in metamorphic lithology (Hoschek, 2004; Omrani et al., 2013).

Rare Earth Element Potential in the Araí Rift Metavolcanic, Central Brazil: Gamma‐Ray Signatures, Mineralogy and Exploration Implications

Terra Nova, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although central Brazil hosts significant ion‐adsorption rare earth element (REE) deposits associated with A‐type granites, their coeval volcanic counterparts have been largely overlooked as exploration targets. This study demonstrates that acidic metavolcanic rocks of the Araí Group share strong radiometric, geochemical and mineralogical ...

Multi‐Mineral Geochronology Across the Neoproterozoic Brasília Nappe Stack: Constraints on Thermal Resetting and Metamorphic Architecture

Terra Nova, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Southern Brasília Orogen formed during Western Gondwana's final assembly and comprises nappe systems piled against the São Francisco Craton. We present new rutile U–Pb ages from the lowermost Canastra Group (> 2.2 Ga) and the uppermost Carrancas Group (~560 Ma), integrated with published zircon, monazite, garnet, and mica ages from the ...

Petrology and geochemistry of Late Proterozoic hornblende gabbros from southeast of Fariman, Khorasan Razavi province, Iran

Journal of Economic Geology, 2015
Introduction Hornblende-bearing gabbroic rocks are quite common in subduction-related magmatic suites and considered to represent magmatic differentiation process in arc magmas (Heliker, 1995; Hickey-Vargas et al., 1995; Mandal and Ray, 2012).
