The late tectonic history of the southern part of the Late Neoproterozoic–Early Palaeozoic East African–Antarctic Orogen (EAAO) is characterized by lateral extrusion, extensional collapse and large volumes of high-temperature A2-type granitoids.

Subduction initiation without magmatism: The case of the missing Alpine magmatic arc
Models of orogens identify subduction of oceanic crust as the key mechanism leading to continental collision. Such models, based inter alia on thermobarometric and geochronological evidence preserved in high-pressure metamorphic rocks and subduction ...

The Neoproterozoic shoshonitic and mildly alkaline bimodal volcanism of Southernmost Brazil is represented by rock assemblages associated to sedimentary successions, deposited in strike-slip basins formed at the post-collisional stages of the Brasilian ...

The Pobei mafic-ultramafic complex in northwestern China comprises magmatic Cu-Ni sulfide ore deposits coexisting with Fe-Ti oxide deposits. The Poshi, Poyi, and Podong ultramafic intrusions host the Cu-Ni ore. The ultramafic intrusions experienced four

: The recent proposition for a long-lived (635-580 Ma) magmatic arc in the central portion of the Borborema Province is critically evaluated. Evidence favoring subduction include: low-T, high-P metamorphism; local occurrence of retroeclogites; and the ...

The Proto-Tethys Ocean was a Neoproterozoic to early Paleozoic ocean that opened upon the breakup of Rodinia and closed by Paleozoic oceanic and continental subduction. The Qilian orogenic belt is the northernmost orogen of the Proto-Tethys domain and consists of the North Qilian belt, the Central Qilian block and the South Qilian belt.

The Isola del Toro is a small island (1 km2) about 5 nautical miles SW of Sardinia entirely made up of mildly alkaline sodic evolved rocks (benmoreites and trachytes) related to each other by fractionation processes.

Growth of continental crust involves the complex interplay of subduction zone magmatism, to generate the crust, followed by stabilization through crustal thickening, magmatism and ultimately isolation from the active plate margin.

The Apennines: Tectonics, Sedimentation, and Magmatism from the Palaeozoic to the Present
The Apennine orogenic system is a natural laboratory for multidisciplinary and integrated studies. The evolution of the Apennines is framed by the fragmentation of Pangea and the development of the Tyrrhenian Basin.
