Metasomatized lithospheric mantle for Mesozoic giant gold deposits in the North China craton [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The origin of giant lode gold deposits of Mesozoic age in the North China craton (NCC) is enigmatic because high-grade metamorphic ancient crust would be highly depleted in gold.

Deconvolving the pre-Himalayan Indian margin – tales of crustal growth and destruction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The metamorphic core of the Himalaya is composed of Indian cratonic rocks with two distinct crustal affinities that are defined by radiogenic isotopic geochemistry and detrital zircon age spectra.

Geological and isotopic characteristics of granites from the Western Pernambuco-Alagoas Domain: implications for the crustal evolution of the Neoproterozoic Borborema Province

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Geology
The Western Pernambuco-Alagoas Domain is a complex tectonic domain of the Southern part of the Neoproterozoic Borborema Province. It borders the Northern margin of São Francisco Craton. U-Pb and Sm-Nd data discussed in this work show that, in the Western

Tectonic Juxtaposition of Two Independent Paleoproterozoic Arcs by Cenozoic Duplexing in the Arun Tectonic Window of the Eastern Nepalese Himalaya

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
The tectonic evolution of the Himalayan orogenic belt before Cenozoic convergence is important to understand its modern structural framework. There is still controversy regarding the tectonic history of the lower Lesser Himalaya Sequence (LHS) in the ...

Spatial Variations in Methane Content and Their Main Controlling Factors of the Deep‐Buried Coalbed in the Nalinhe–Hengshan Area, Ordos Basin

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Ash yield is the primary geological factor controlling the spatial variations in the total gas content of the deep‐buried coalbed methane in the Nalinhe‐Hengshan area, Ordos Basin. However, porosity dominates the differential enrichment of the free gas content of the deep‐buried coalbed methane in the Nalinhe‐Hengshan area, Ordos Basin.

Major tectonic units of the North China Craton and their Paleoproterozoic assembly [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The basement of the North China Craton can be divided into the Eastern and Western Blocks and the Central Zone (Trans-North China Orogen). The West Block formed by the amalgamation of the Ordos Block in the south and the Yinshan Block in the north 1.9-2 ...

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 ...

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
