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.

ABSTRACT Groundwater discharge plays an important role in the hydrologic and ecologic functioning of rivers including sustaining streamflow and related habitat year‐round. Simultaneously, groundwater supports the increasing demands of people as the global population continues to grow.

Age of the Tokkalehto metagabbro and its significance to the lithostratigraphy of the early Proterozoic Kuusamo supracrustal belt, northern Finland [PDF]
The c. 30-km2 Tokkalehto metagabbro and associated sills and dykes intrude a large part of the western part of the early Proterozoic Kuusamo supracrustal belt in northern Finland. These rocks have previously been mapped as a metavolcanic unit, Greenstone

The area discussed here is situated 8 km north of the Sukkertoppen Iskappe and 10 km east of Søndre Strømfjord at 66°27'N, 51°50'W. The work was undertaken during August as part of the programme led by Dr. J. Watterson (see this report). The outcrop of supracrustal metavolcanic rocks is less than 15 km2 in extent.

Abstract Glacier retreat is projected to drive major shifts in the hydrology of many high‐elevation and high‐latitude watersheds. In particular, future decreases in glacier runoff are hypothesized to reduce the stability of hydro‐biogeochemical export.

Charnockites with 2691–2607 Ma magmatic ages from the NMZ show arc‐magmatic geochemical signatures. They correspond to the lower‐crustal equivalent of the Chilimanzi Suite Granite in the Zimbabwe Craton. Lu‐Hf isotopic data of magmatic zircons show negative εHf(t) values (−11.18 to −2.20) with TDMC ages of 3699–3158 Ma, suggesting their protolith ...

Tourmalinites of the Brusque Group in the São João Batista-Tijucas area, State of Santa Catarina, Brazil [PDF]
The Dom Feliciano Belt, in the State of Santa Catarina, is represented by the Itaja and Brusque groups and the Florianpolis Batholith. The basal Rio do Oliveira Formation of the Brusque Group consists of metabasic/calc-silicate, metavolcanic-exhalative ...

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

Abstract In the Afghan Hindu Kush, the 223–209 Ma (≤800°C) Salang batholith is part of the Silk‐Road magmatic arc that was built on ∼40‐km‐thick Turan‐Karakum block continental crust. The batholith constitutes the hanging wall of the Herat‐Panjshir‐Badakhshan—the Paleo‐Tethys—suture zone, vestige of the subducted Paleozoic‐early Mesozoic Paleo‐Tethys ...

General geology, alteration, and iron deposits in the Palaeoproterozoic Misi region, northern Finland [PDF]
The Paleoproterozoic Misi region forms the northeastern part of the Peräpohja Schist Belt in northern Finland. The area comprises mafic volcanic land sedimentary rocks, differentiated gabbros, and late-orogenic granitoids.
