U-Pb (Zircon) Ages of Metavolcanic Rocks From the Itaiacoca Group: Tectonic Implications [PDF]
The main aim of this work is to present and discuss the U-Pb ages obtained for zircon grains from metavolcanic rocks of theItaiacoca Group. The Itaiacoca Group is a metavolcano-sedimentary sequence, which occurs as a narrow belt between theCunhaporanga ...

Gold mobilization during metamorphic devolatilization of Archean and Paleoproterozoic metavolcanic rocks [PDF]
Abstract Volcanic rocks in Archean and Paleoproterozoic greenstone belts are abundant and have been suggested as a potential Au source for orogenic Au deposits. The behavior of Au during metamorphism of these rocks is, however, poorly known.

Multi-method characterization of rare blue quartz-bearing metavolcanic rocks of the Rio dos Remédios Group, Paramirim Aulacogen, NE Brazil [PDF]
The Rio dos Remédios Group comprises a supracrustal sequence that occupies the base of the Espinhaço Supergroup, São Francisco Craton, Brazil. Its basal formation, Novo Horizonte, crops out in the Paramirim region mainly as metavolcanic rocks that ...

Nature, affinities and significance of metavolcanic rocks in the Outokumpu assemblage, eastern Finland [PDF]
The rock association of serpentinite‒chrome-silicate skarn‒dolomite-quartz rock‒black schist in the Outokumpu region, in which polymetallic sulphide ore deposits occur, has been compared to an ophiolite.

Palaeoproterozoic mafic and intermediate metavolcanic rocks in the Turku area, SW Finland [PDF]
Twenty two samples were analysed from mafic and intermediate volcanic rocks from the Turku area along ~60 km long north-south geotraverse. Geographically and lithologically the samples were divided into the Pargas, Turku and Vahto groups.

The petrology of the metavolcanic rocks of the Rusty Lake area, Manitoba [PDF]
A study of the mineralogical and chemical properties of the metavolcanic rocks of the Rusty Lake greenstone belt was accomplished by means of sampling on a 1000 foot grid. In total, this greenstone belt is exposed over more than 250 square miles.
