Geophysical update of the diameter of the Zhamanshin impact structure, Kazakhstan
Abstract The rim of the 0.9‐Ma‐old Zhamanshin impact crater in Kazakhstan is considered to be almost completely exposed via a series of hills surrounding a central flat area, indicating an apparent diameter of 14 km. This would make Zhamanshin the second largest impact crater of the Quaternary period. However, the overall geometry of these hills is not

Iron Isotopes Reveal Fe Export Driven by Change of Tropical Weathering Regime
Abstract Unraveling paleoenvironmental signals recorded in laterites is crucial for quantifying weathering‐driven elemental fluxes at the Earth's surface. New stable iron isotope data (δ56Fe), combined with (U‐Th)/He ages in Fe‐oxides from a ferruginous duricrust from French Guiana, reveal the response of Fe hosted in laterite to past changes in ...

Abstract The assembly of Gondwana involved several Pan‐African orogens, although their extension into ice‐covered Antarctica remains contentious. Particularly problematic is our understanding of the Kuunga orogenic system in East Antarctica, including its eroded architecture and temporal evolution. The remote Charcot Province, at the easternmost extent

ABSTRACT The processes involved during subduction initiation (SI) remain poorly constrained, in part due to the rarity of geological archives. Ophiolites and their underlying metamorphic soles are thought to form during subduction zone infancy and may thus provide critical constraints. Metamorphic soles are derived from oceanic crust of the lower plate

Petrology and structure of the early Proterozoic Pirilä gold deposit in southeastern Finland [PDF]
The Pirilä gold deposit is located in the southeastern part of the Ladoga-Botnian Bay Zone, in a volcano-sedimentary environment metamorphosed under PT conditions of the amphibolite facies.

Ductile Extrusion Triggered by Continental Collision in NE Brazil
ABSTRACT The Borborema Province in northeastern Brazil hosts one of the world's largest strike‐slip shear zone networks, active during the late Neoproterozoic assembly of West Gondwana. Whether these shear zones initiated during active continental collision or as a post‐orogenic response to far‐field stresses remains debated.

The results from the geological and geophysical investigations of the Siljan Ring impact structure (central Sweden) have shown that the Paleozoic sedimentary succession and the Precambrian basement were strongly affected by complex deformational ...

Abstract The interaction between the Tethyan and Paleo‐Pacific subduction systems in Southeast Asia since the Paleozoic is still poorly understood. Hainan Island and Borneo, located near the junction of the Tethyan and Paleo‐Pacific domains, provide the critical regions for understanding the dynamic processes and interaction between the two tectonic ...
