ABSTRACT The Quetico subprovince of the Superior Province is among the largest metasedimentary belts globally and provides evidence of tectonic processes at play during the final stages of Archean cratonization. Although previous studies have shown that deformation and metamorphism of the 2.7‐Ga turbiditic protolith resulted in regional subvertical ...

The geologic potentials of Riau Islands Province and its development design
Geologically Riau Islands is located in the topography of the old stadium erosion. The morphology is characterized by smooth hills with convex slopes and alluvial plain consisting of the erosion products. The morphology exhibits the remnants of peneplain

Abstract When, where, and how much fluid is released from subducting oceanic crust control deformation, element cycling, and magmatism in subduction zones. However, the palimpsest of tectonometamorphic processes in the exhumed rock record complicates the relation of geologic observations to geodynamic models of subduction fluid sources and transport ...

BARITE, HEMATITE AND CINNABAR ORE DEPOSITS IN THE DUSINA AREA, MID-BOSNIAN SCHIST MOUNTAINS
In the Dusina area, which is built up of Lower Palaeozoic metasediments, Devonian carbonate complex and Upper Palaeozoic metarhyolites unconformab1y overlain by Upper Permian sediments, numerous ore occurrences have been investigated: (a) "stratabound ...

Dehydroxylation of Minerals of Gadisunkapur Area with Special Reference to FTIR and Thermal Study
This paper attempts to explain the presence of OH group for micas along with some sulfate, chlorite, quartz and feldspar minerals. These minerals are found to be associated with barite vein, metasediments (quartz-chlorite schist ...

Comparison of metamorphic evolution and tectonic position of metasediments of the Austevoll islands with rocks from the Samnanger Complex (Major Bergen Arc, Norwegian Caledonides) [PDF]
Metasedimentary rocks represent a substantial component of the Bergen Arcs System and they are mostly confined to the Minor and Major Bergen Arcs. The arcs represents imbricate structures composed of island arc lithologies, prism sediments and gneissic ...

The making of pure quartzose sand in continental interiors: Paraná River (Brazil and Argentina)
ABSTRACT As part of a comprehensive project on sedimentary processes in South America, this study focuses on sediment generation in the intracratonic Paraná Basin and monitors the evolution of sand composition along the Paraná River from central Brazil to the Río de la Plata estuary in Argentina.

Precambrian crustal evolution and Cretaceous–Palaeogene faulting in West Greenland: Zircon geochronology from the Kangaatsiaq–Qasigiannguit region, the northern part of the 1.9–1.8 Ga Nagssugtoqidian orogen, West Greenland [PDF]
The Kangaatsiaq–Qasigiannguit region in the northern part of the Palaeoproterozoic Nagssugtoqidian orogen of West Greenland consists of poly-deformed orthogneisses and minor occurrences of interleaved, discontinuous supracrustal belts. Laser ablation ICP-
