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.

There is an opinion that Paleoproterozoic magmatism in the Karelian craton of the Baltic Shield is linked solely with the influence of mantle plumes.

ABSTRACT Reconstructing the pressure–temperature–time (P–T–t) evolution of (ultra)high‐pressure rocks is essential for constraining subduction and collisional dynamics. Subduction zones are often investigated using basic eclogites, whereas nonbasic high‐pressure rocks remain comparatively understudied, potentially hindering a comprehensive ...

Evolution of a Paleoproterozoic “weak type” orogeny in the West African Craton (Ivory Coast). [PDF]
International audienceThe Paleoproterozoic domain of Ivory Coast lies in the central part of the West African Craton (WAC) and is mainly constituted by TTG, greenstones, supracrustal rocks and leucogranites.

Is the Ordos Block Archean or Paleoproterozoic in age? Implications for the Precambrian evolution of the North China Craton [PDF]
The Ordos Block is a large but poorly exposed crustal segment in the western part of the North China Craton. Little is known about its Precambrian basement rocks and their evolution because of an extensive cover by younger sedimentary rocks.

ARCHEAN AND PALEOPROTEROZOIC HISTORY OF ROCK METAMORPHISM IN THE URALS CRUSTAL SEGMENT
In the Urals, Archean and Paleoproterozoic formations were found in several polymetamorphic complexes which crop out as relatively small tectonic blocks (within the first thousands sq. km in area).

Fluid inclusions in auriferous quartz veins in five deposits in the Archean (2.9–2.7 Ga) and Paleoproterozoic (2.0–1.75 Ga) greenstone belts of eastern and southwestern Finland have been characterized on the basis of their composition, reconstructed ...

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 ...

Cold deep subduction recorded by remnants of a Paleoproterozoic carbonated slab
The onset of modern-style plate tectonics remains under debate. Here, Xu et al. report a cold thermal-gradient recorded in an eclogite xenolith in Paleoproterozoic carbonatite from orogen, and propose that modern-style subduction has operated since at ...
