Tectonic history of the South Tannuol Fault Zone (Tuva region of the northern Central Asian Orogenic Belt, Russia) : constraints from multi-method geochronology [PDF]
In this study, we present zircon U/Pb, plagioclase and K-feldspar Ar-40/Ar-39 and apatite fission track (AFT) data along the South Tannuol Fault Zone (STFZ).

Rifting and arc-related early Paleozoic volcanism along the North Gondwana margin: geochemical and geological evidence from Sardinia (Italy) [PDF]
Three series of volcanic rocks accumulated during the Cambrian to Silurian in the metasediment-dominated Variscan basement of Sardinia. They provide a record of the changing geodynamic setting of the North Gondwana margin between Upper Cambrian and ...

Ordovician stratigraphy of the Junee–Narromine Volcanic Belt in central New South Wales, Australia: conodont studies and regional correlations [PDF]
This contribution reviews the newly revised biostratigraphy of MiddleâUpper Ordovician marine shelf successions from the JuneeâNarromine Volcanic Belt in central New South Wales, based on conodont studies from four areas covering the northern ...

Parasite-induced shell damage in brachiopod Porambonites (Porambonites) laticaudata from the Late Ordovician (Sandbian) of Estonia [PDF]
A new type of shell damage has been described in Ordovician brachiopods in Porambonites (Porambonites) laticaudata. There is a pair of small pits with somewhat different outline in the shell surface at the anterior commissure of the brachiopod.

First report of the mitrate Mitrocystella (Echinodermata, Stylophora) in the Middle Ordovician of the Crozon Peninsula, Brittany (France) [PDF]
The mid-Ordovician mitrocystitid mitrate Mitrocystella incipiens was one of the most widespread stylophorans in the high latitude Mediterranean Province, with occurrences in the Armorican Massif (France), the Iberian Peninsula (Portugal and Spain) and ...

A new marrellomorph euarthropod from the Early Ordovician of Argentina [PDF]
Marrellomorphs (class Marrellomorpha) are a group of Paleozoic arthropods with a very poor fossil record. Here we describe a new marrellomorph arthropod Mimetaster florestaensis sp. nov. from the Tremadocian (earliest Ordovician) of Argentina.

Solutan echinoderms from the Lower Ordovician of the Montagne Noire (France): new data and palaeobiogeographic implications [PDF]
Solutans are relatively common members of echinoderm assemblages in the Saint-Chinian Formation (upper Tremadocian) of the Montagne Noire (France). The revision of all available material confirms that most specimens can be assigned to Minervaecystis ...
