Paleoproterozoic Plate Tectonics Recorded in the Northern Margin Orogen, North China Craton

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2022
The occurrence of plate tectonic processes on Earth during the Paleoproterozoic is supported by ca. 2.2–1.8 Ga subduction‐collision orogens associated with the assembly of the Columbia‐Nuna supercontinent. Subsequent supercontinent breakup is evidence by

Geochemical and Seismic Constraints on the Role of Mud Diapirs in Petroleum Migration and Accumulation in the Recôncavo Basin, NE Brazil

open access: yesJournal of Petroleum Geology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the Recôncavo Basin, Northeast of Brazil, mud diapirs have been reported for decades, but their role within the basin's petroleum system remains poorly constrained. Here, we combine 2D seismic interpretation, field observations, and organic geochemical analyses of rocks and oil seeps to investigate the relationship between diapirism and ...

Revisiting the Pyhäsalmi volcanic complex, western Finland: new insights from volcanic-facies mapping [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Geological Society of Finland
The Pyhäsalmi Volcanogenic Massive Sulfide (VMS) deposit, hosted by volcanic rocks of the 1.93–1.91 Ga Vihanti–Pyhäsalmi–Rautalampi belt, is the largest base metal sulfide deposit in Finland (75.7 Mt at 0.9 wt.% Cu, 1.9 wt.% Zn, 0.4 g/t Au, and 14.1 g/t ...

Petrogenesis and tectonic implications of the late Paleoproterozoic (ca. 1.7 Ga) post-collisional magmatism in the southwestern Gyeonggi Massif at Garorim Bay, South Korea

open access: yesJournal of Asian Earth Sciences: X, 2021
The Precambrian basement of the Gyeonggi Massif in the central Korean Peninsula consists mainly of Paleoproterozoic (2.0–1.8 Ga) gneisses. In this study, we present petrological, zircon U–Pb age and Hf isotope, and whole-rock geochemical and Sr–Nd–Pb ...

Exploring the Gravimetric and Geochronological Links in Ancient Terranes of the São Francisco Craton and Borborema Province, NE‐Brazil

open access: yesTerra Nova, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Deep crustal fragments and structural lineaments identified through satellite gravity data provide evidence for the extension of the reworked ancient basement of the Central African Block into the northern São Francisco Craton and southern Borborema Province.

Enlargement of the area of the Timpton Large Igneous Province (ca. 1.75 ga) of the Siberian craton

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2019
We present new geochronological data on dolerites from the Chaya dyke swarm of the Baikal inlier of the Siberian craton. The U‐Pb dating of baddeleyite from one dyke located at the SW end of the Chaya dyke swarm yielded an age of 1752±6 Ma, similar to ...

Near‐Synchronous Cambrian Evolution of the Transbrasiliano‐Kandi‐4°50′ Shear Zone in South America and Africa

open access: yesTerra Nova, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Transbrasiliano‐Kandi‐4°50′ (TK4) shear zone in western Gondwana crosscuts South America and NW Africa for at least 6000 km. Despite its impressive size, the timing of the main episode of dextral ductile shearing is uncertain. We present detailed in situ multi‐mineral geochronology of mylonites from both Brazil and Algeria supporting that ...

Temporal and Hf isotope geochemical evolution of southern Finnish Lapland from 2.77 Ga to 1.76 Ga [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 2012
The southern Finnish Lapland area in the central part of the Fennoscandian shield is a geologically complex zone comprising several Archean blocks and Paleoproterozoic supracrustal belts all of which are intruded by voluminous Paleoproterozoic granites ...

Mafic-ultramafic intrusions of Matokulma, Palojärvi, and Hongonniittu within the Central Finland Granitoid Complex with special reference to their petrogenesis and ore potential [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Geological Society of Finland
We describe three previously unknown or poorly studied mafic-ultramafic intrusions (Matokulma, Palojärvi, Hongonniittu) from the south-central part of the Paleoproterozoic Central Finland Granitoid Complex (CFGC).

Vetreny belt as a geological heritage of unique paleoproterozoic tectonomagmatic processes in the Fennoscandin shield

open access: yesИзвестия высших учебных заведений: Геология и разведка
We presented the history of discovery and development of geological hypotheses about the conditions of formation of one of the largest Paloproterozoic structures of the Baltic Shield  — the Vetreny Belt.
