Paleoproterozoic molassoid complexes of SW Chana
Based on a study of modern-day published evidences and own data the lithology, conditions of sedimentations, tectonic evolution and mineralization of molassoid complexes of SW Ghana which filled Tarkwa and Bui basins within the Birrimian paleoproterozoic orogenic belt are considered.

Abstract The cratonic lithospheric mantle records complex metasomatic processes and is frequently tapped by alkaline magmatism, offering a unique opportunity to trace the progressive evolution of the mantle. In the present contribution, we investigate a newly identified calc‐alkaline lamprophyre field from the Neoarchean Jonnagiri Schist Belt, Eastern ...

The distribution of rheologically strong cratons, and their weakening by metamorphic hydration reactions, is of fundamental importance for understanding first‐order strength contrasts within the crust and the resulting controls on the tectonic evolution ...

Abstract The deep continental subsurface hosts a large, diverse, and poorly characterized microbiome. The geochemistry and microbiology of deep subsurface sites are closely linked and influenced by geological, hydrological, and anthropogenic factors. The Deep Mine Microbial Observatory (DeMMO; Lead, SD) was established in 2015 to provide stable portals

Volcanic rocks in Archean and Paleoproterozoic greenstone belts are abundant and have been suggested as potential Au source for orogenic Au deposits. The behavior of Au during metamorphism of these rocks is however, poorly known.

Abstract The Laurasian Seaway comprises a N‐S oriented trans‐Pangaean corridor linking Tethys to the Boreal Sea during the Jurassic, and direction of water flow has been the subject of considerable debate. The Llanbedr (Mochras Farm) borehole, Cardigan Bay Basin, Wales, is a uniquely informative record that comprises an expanded deep‐marine silty ...
