The Avalonian-Cadomian Belt and related peri-Gondwanan terranes

International Journal of Earth Sciences, 2004
During the past decade it has widely been accepted that the Avalonian-Cadomian belt results from Neoproterozoic to early Paleozoic Andean-type orogeny, that was active at the northern margin of Gondwana. The major imprints of this orogeny are recorded by so-called periGondwanan terranes which faced open oceans during the Neoproterozoic.

A peri-Gondwanan arc in NW IberiaI: Isotopic and geochemical constraints on the origin of the arc—A sedimentary approach [PDF]

open access: yesGondwana Research, 2010
The arc-derived upper terrane in the NW Iberia Variscan belt contains a 3000 m thick turbiditic formation at its structural top. Most of the sandstones are feldspathic greywackes with a framework of quartz and weakly altered plagioclase. Rock fragments of vitric and microgranular texture are common in polymictic conglomerates and coarse ...

Peri-Gondwanan terranes in the Romanian Carpathians: A review of their spatial distribution, origin, provenance, and evolution

open access: yesGeoscience Frontiers, 2014
AbstractThe basement of the Romanian Carpathians is made of Neoproterozoic to early Paleozoic peri-Gondwanan terranes variably involved in the Variscan orogeny, similarly to other basement terrains of Europe. They were hardly dismembered during the Alpine orogeny and traditionally have their own names in the three Carpathian areas.

Geochronology, geochemistry, and tectonic setting of Ordovician metavolcanic rocks in the Liberty–Orrington belt, Maine: implications for the evolution of peri-Gondwanan arcs in the northern Appalachians

Canadian journal of earth sciences (Print), 2023
The Yarmouth Island Formation of the East Harpswell Group (EHG) is an assemblage of metamorphosed volcanic and sedimentary rocks exposed in Casco Bay, Maine. Although previously interpreted to have been deposited ca. 445 Ma, two new U–Pb zircon ages from

The Appalachian peri-Gondwanan realm: a palaeogeographical perspective from the south

Geological Society, London, Special Publications, 2005
Abstract The Appalachian peri-Gondwanan realm (APGR) is an extensive tract of exotic Neoproterozoic-early Palaeozoic crustal blocks that occupies the eastern flank of the orogen. Traditionally, southern APGR elements have been correlated with those of the northern Appalachians on the basis of gross geological similarities.

Peri-Gondwanan sediment in the Arkoma Basin derived from the north: The detrital zircon record of a uniquely concentrated non-Laurentian source signal in the late Paleozoic

Geosphere
During the assembly of Pangea, peri-Gondwanan terranes collided with the eastern and southern margins of Laurentia and brought with them unique detrital zircon U-Pb signatures.

Late Palaeozoic Evolution of the Peri-Gondwanan Plates of SE Asia

Proceedings, 2011
The continents forming the core of Gondwana include South America, Africa, Madagascar, India, Antarctica and Australia. The location of numerous smaller continental blocks that bordered Gondwana is less certain. These smaller blocks were assembled during the Early Paleozoic time to Gondwana, forming the so-called Peri-Gondwanan zone. The following were

Late Cambrian-early Ordovician extensional magmatism, uplift and sedimentation of the N Gondwana margin: new field, geochemical and geochronological data from the peri-Gondwanan Central Sakarya Terrane, Sakarya Zone, NW Turkey

Soviet Economy
The timing and mechanism of the crustal extension that caused blocks of continental crust to rift and drift northwards from the northern Gondwana margin during the Early Palaeozoic are currently debated.

Late Silurian cephalopods from Langkawi, Malaysia, with peri-Gondwanan faunal affinity

Journal of Systematic Palaeontology, 2018
Nine species of late Pridoli (latest Silurian) orthocerid cephalopods are described from the Upper Setul Limestone of Pulau Langgun, Langkawi Islands, Malaysia. These are the orthoceratids Michelinoceras (Michelinoceras) cf. michelini (Barrande, 1866), Michelinoceras? sp., Kopaninoceras setulense sp. nov., Mimogeisonoceras? langgunense sp.
