Eocene Tectonic Change in the South Pacific Caused Exhumation of the Transantarctic Mountains in Northern Victoria Land, Antarctica

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 1, March 2026.
Apatite fission‐track and (U‐Th)/He data indicate rapid exhumation of northern Victoria Land at 40–30 Ma, correlating with opening of Adare Trough at 43–28 Ma. Exhumation was greatest close to the Ross Sea, consistent with other regions of the Transantarctic Mountains.

Precambrian crustal evolution and Cretaceous–Palaeogene faulting in West Greenland: Evolution of Neoarchaean supracrustal belts at the northern margin of the North Atlantic Craton, West Greenland [PDF]

Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland Bulletin, 2006
The Archaean North Atlantic Craton of West Greenland collided at c. 1.9 Ga with a lesser-known Archaean craton to the north, to form the Nagssugtoqidian orogen.

The Difunta Correa metasedimentary sequence (NW Argentina): relict of a Neoproterozoic platform? — elemental and Sr-Nd isotope evidence

Revista Mexicana de Ciencias Geológicas, 2018
The Sierra de Pie de Palo (Western Sierras Pampeanas, Argentina) in the Andean foreland is mainly formed by a Mesoproterozoic basement and an Ediacaran metasedimentary cover referred to as the Difunta Correa metasedimentary sequence.

Lithostratigraphy of the early Proterozoic Kainuu Schist Belt in the Kurkikylä-Siikavaara area, northern Finland, with emphasis on the genetic approach [PDF]

Bulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 1989
The early Proterozoic (Karelian) supracrustal formations of the northeastern part of the Kainuu Schist Belt in the Kurkikylä-Siikavaara area in northern Finland are formally classified into the Kurkikylä, Korvuanjoki and East Puolanka Groups.

Magnetic fabric and rock magnetic studies of metasedimentary rocks in the central Okcheon Metamorphic Belt, Korea [PDF]

Earth, Planets and Space, 2005
Abstract Anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility (AMS) and rock magnetic studies have been carried out for the metasedimentary rocks in the central Okcheon Metamorphic Belt. The study area is divided into three metamorphic zones: the biotite zone, the garnet zone, and the sillimanite+andalusite zone from southeast to northwest.

Subduction Zone Magnetism: The Influence of Metamorphism and Serpentinization in the Mantle Wedge

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Subduction zone magnetic anomalies have previously been used to infer their thermal structure assuming a uniformly serpentinized mantle carries a homogeneous, isotropic magnetization. However, seismic tomography, geological observations and numerical modeling provide increasing evidence for a non‐uniformly serpentinized mantle wedge that may ...

U-Pb zircon age of Ordovician magmatism in the Albera Massif (Eastern Pyrenees)

Geologica Acta, 2011
New geochronological data from the Albera Massif confirm the presence of an Early – Mid Ordovician igneous event (472 - 465Ma) recorded in the pre-Variscan rocks of the Pyrenees.

The Encantada Granite: registration of a peraluminous intrusion in the Rondonian Province - San Ignacio, in SW Amazonic Craton, Mato Grosso, Brazil [PDF]

Geologia USP. Série Científica, 2015
The Encantada Granite occurs on the extreme southwest of the state of Mato Grosso, SW of the Amazonian Craton, near the border of Brasil/Bolívia. It corresponds to an body oriented to NNW direction that intruded metasedimentary and metavolcanic rocks ...

Growth and Chemical Evolution of the Kohistan Arc Crust, Northern Pakistan, Western Himalayas

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Fossil arcs which expose the middle‐lower crust have the potential to shed light on active arc processes because magmatic rocks from the entire history of the arc can be examined. We present new geochemical data from the middle crust of the Kohistan Arc and use existing geochemical and geochronological literature data from this arc to ...

Hybridization between I-type and S-type granites in the ordovician famatinian magmatic arc, Tafí del Valle, Tucumán, NW Argentina

Geologica Acta, 2018
In the Tafí del Valle region, in northwestern Argentina, several intrusive bodies of lower Paleozoic age were emplaced in the metasedimentary Puncoviscana Formation, belonging to the Sierras Pampeanas. Four intrusive bodies outcrop in the study area: La
