Precambrian crustal evolution and Cretaceous–Palaeogene faulting in West Greenland: The Nordre Strømfjord shear zone and the Arfersiorfik quartz diorite in Arfersiorfik, the Nagssugtoqidian orogen, West Greenland [PDF]
The Nordre Strømfjord shear zone in the fjord Arfersiorfik, central West Greenland, consists of alternating panels of supracrustal rocks and orthogneisses which together form a vertical zone up to 7 km wide with sinistral transcurrent, ductile ...

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.

Geology and petrology of the kösedağ metavolcanic rocks to the south of Tosya
Kösedağ metavolkanik kayaları, güney Orta Pontidler'de, Tosya'nın güneyinde KD-GB uzanımlı bir kuşak boyunca yüzlek verirler. Birim metasedimanter litolojilerle ardalanan metavolkanik kayalardan oluşur. Kösedağ Metavolkanikleri kuzeyde Kuzey Anadolu Fay'ı ile sınırlanırken, güneyde Dikmen Formasyonu'nun metakarbonatlarını tektonik ...

The petrology of the metavolcanic rocks of the Rusty Lake area, Manitoba
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.

Progress in the Application of Oxygen Isotopes in the Study of Petrogenesis
Since different types of rocks on the earth have different oxygen isotope compositions, they can be used to discuss the origins of various rocks and it has become a powerful tool for studying petrology.
