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]

open access: yesGeological 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 Archean Rio das Velhas greenstone belt revisited: new insights into the stratigraphy

open access: yesJournal of the Geological Survey of Brazil, 2020
The Neoarchean Rio das Velhas greenstone belt (RVGB), southeast Brazil, contains major tectonic and stratigraphic discontinuities that allow its division into three fault-bound tectonostratigraphic blocks named Santa Bárbara, Nova Lima-Caeté and São ...

Modeling the Anthropogenic Effects on Watershed Evolution Trajectory: An Example From the Chestatee River in Northern Georgia, USA

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Human activities shape erosion dynamics and landscape evolution, making effective modeling approaches essential for understanding these impacts. This study utilizes landscape evolution models with a streamlined parameterization process to evaluate the anthropogenic effects on the erosional trajectory of the Chestatee River watershed in ...

Geological Histories from 4372 Ma to 26 Ma Recorded in Siliciclastic Metasedimentary Rocks from the Central Yilgarn Craton [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This study presents an investigation of detrital, metamorphic, and hydrothermal minerals from siliciclastic metasedimentary rocks of the Illaara and Maynard Hills greenstone belts, central Yilgarn Craton. This research assesses how 4.3 to 3.0 Ga detrital

Microbial Ecology of the Heterogeneous Terrestrial Deep Biosphere Over 4 years in the Deep Mine Microbial Observatory (DeMMO)

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The deep continental subsurface hosts a large, diverse, and poorly characterized microbiome. The geochemistry and microbiology of deep subsurface sites are closely linked and influenced by geological, hydrological, and anthropogenic factors. The Deep Mine Microbial Observatory (DeMMO; Lead, SD) was established in 2015 to provide stable portals

The metamorphic configuration of the Piaxtla high-pressure suite inferred from geological mapping and its metasedimentary rocks

open access: yesRevista Mexicana de Ciencias Geológicas
The Piaxtla high-pressure suite (Acatlán Complex) in southern Mexico represents a part of an ancient subduction zone. This suite consists of slices of oceanic and continental affinity containing blueschist- and eclogite-facies relics. Geological mapping

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

open access: yesRevista 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.

Protracted High‐Grade Metamorphism and Slow Cooling in the Adirondacks Recalibrate Neoproterozoic Global Paleogeography

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The assembly and breakup of the supercontinent Rodinia set the stage for Earth system evolution through the Neoproterozoic Era. Laurentia, the central craton in Rodinia, lacks well‐dated paleomagnetic poles between ca. 990 Ma and 780 Ma. In this study, we develop new U‐Pb petrochronology and thermochronology data sets from zircon, garnet ...

Geology and geochronology of the Magdalena-Madera metamorphic core complex lower plate in the sierras Las Jarillas-El Potrero, northern Sonora

open access: yesRevista Mexicana de Ciencias Geológicas
The area of sierras Las Jarillas-El Potrero in northern Sonora is interpreted as a portion of the lower plate of the Magdalena metamorphic core complex. Rock units that characterize this locality range in age from Jurassic to Eocene.

CO-EVOLUTION OF PROTEROZOIC CRATONIC FRAGMENTS IN WESTERN AND NORTHERN MONGOLIA

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2017
CAOB occupies a vast area that extends from the Urals to the Far East Asia and from the Siberian craton to the North China and Tarim cratons (Fig. 1, A).
