Nappe tectonics in the Matomb-Hegba area, South-Central Cameroon: Implications on the tectonic evolution of the Yaoundé Group in the Central African Orogenic Belt

open access: yesGeosystems and Geoenvironment
This paper documents the thrust tectonics in the Yaoundé Group using detailed field mapping and satellite imagery data. The litho-stratigraphic of the Matomb-Hegba area located W of the Pan-African Yaoundé series comprised two main metasedimentary units:

Petrogenetic link between metasedimentary rocks, migmatites and granitoids in the Variscan basement of the Pontgibaud area, French Massif Central – implications for the crustal structure

open access: yesBSGF - Earth Sciences Bulletin
The architecture of the crust in the French Massif Central (FMC) is described as a nappe stack composed, from top to bottom, of the Upper Gneiss Unit (UGU), the Lower Gneiss Unit (LGU), and the Para-Autochthonous Unit (PAU), which are intruded by ...

The 1.79 Ga Särkilahti leucogranite – a horizontal magma layer below granulite-grade migmatites in SE Finland [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 2019
The heterogeneous, peraluminous Särkilahti garnet-cordierite leucogranite occupies ~ 75 km2 area in Svecofennian granulite-grade terrain of SE Finland. Country rocks are metasedimentary garnet-cordierite-biotite migmatites with some orthopyroxenegarnet ...

Banded amphibolites in the Alps: a new interpretation in relation to early Paleozoic peraluminous magmatism

open access: yesSwiss Journal of Geosciences, 2020
The Strona-Ceneri Zone is located south of the Insubric line, where Alpine overprint is mainly brittle and of low grade or even absent. Apart from the unmetamorphic Permo-Carboniferous sediments and intrusiva the Strona-Ceneri Zone is an Ordovician ...

Dimension Stone: Exploration and Exploitation in parts of Lokoja, North-Central Nigeria

open access: yesJournal of Applied Sciences and Environmental Management, 2020
The study area Lokoja is the home to the confluence between Rivers Niger and Benue. Dimension stone is cut or quarried stone in accordance with specific dimensions, generally more abundant and are used in greater quantities than ore minerals in pavement

Extreme extension across Seram and Ambon, eastern Indonesia: evidence for Banda slab rollback [PDF]

open access: yesSolid Earth, 2013
The island of Seram, which lies in the northern part of the 180°-curved Banda Arc, has previously been interpreted as a fold-and-thrust belt formed during arc-continent collision, which incorporates ophiolites intruded by granites thought to have been ...

Melt inclusions in migmatites and granulites [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Virtual Explorer, 2011
Important advances have been made during the last 15 years in the study of melt inclusions in minerals from migmatites and granulites. Pioneer work on high temperature metapelitic anatectic enclaves in peraluminous dacites from SE Spain has shown that droplets of granitic melt can be trapped by minerals growing during incongruent melting reactions, and
