ABSTRACT The Quetico subprovince of the Superior Province is among the largest metasedimentary belts globally and provides evidence of tectonic processes at play during the final stages of Archean cratonization. Although previous studies have shown that deformation and metamorphism of the 2.7‐Ga turbiditic protolith resulted in regional subvertical ...

Insights on high-grade deformation in quartzo-feldspathic gneisses during the early Variscan exhumation of the Cabo Ortegal nappe, NW Iberia [PDF]
High-grade, highly deformed gneisses crop out continuously along the Masanteo peninsula and constitute the upper part of the lower crustal section in the Cabo Ortegal nappe (NW Spain).

ABSTRACT The metamorphic zoning and geothermobarometry of the Ryoke metamorphic complex in the Yanai area, southwest Japan, show that its thermobaric structure was buffered by the dehydration melting of biotite. The temperatures over most of the area covered by the three high‐grade zones (8.5‐ to 19.0‐km depth) are consistent with those of the ...

MINERALOGICAL-PETROGRAPHIC FEATURES OF SYENITIC MIGMATITES OF THE ILMENOGORSKY MIASKITE BLOCK (SOUTH URALS) [PDF]
Syenitic migmatites of the contact of the Ilmenogorsky miaskite block are characterized by high (>500 ppm) contents of REEs, which are mainly hosted in fluorapatite and titanite of the leucosome.

ABSTRACT The Carnac alignments in Morbihan (France) are among the most famous Neolithic sites of the world. Paradoxically, they have benefited little from a thorough renewal of archaeological data over the past century. There are many reasons for this, but it is mainly because the site has been regarded more as a monument to visit and protect than as ...

Coesite Discovery in Eclogites Confirms UHP Metamorphism in the Orlica‐Śnieżnik Dome (SW Poland)
ABSTRACT Eclogite lenses are exposed within the orthogneiss‐dominated core of the Orlica‐Śnieżnik Dome in the Sudetes, which forms the northeastern margin of the Bohemian Massif (Variscan Belt of Central Europe). The presence of coesite inclusions in garnet and omphacite confirms that these eclogites underwent ultrahigh‐pressure metamorphism.

Prograde zircon growth in migmatites
AbstractEmpirical studies of zircon in migmatites document features compatible with growth during heating at suprasolidus conditions. However, numerical modelling of zircon behaviour suggests that suprasolidus zircon is expected to grow only during cooling and melt crystallization.

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.

Migmatites can record the complex melting processes during crustal anatexis, and investigating their petrogenesis is crucial for deciphering the chemical differentiation processes of continental crust.
