Unraveling the origins and P-T-t evolution of the allochthonous Sobrado unit (Órdenes Complex, NW Spain) using combined U–Pb titanite, monazite and zircon geochronology and rare-earth element (REE) geochemistry [PDF]
The Sobrado unit, within the upper part of the Órdenes Complex (NW Spain) represents an allochthonous tectonic slice of exhumed high-grade metamorphic rocks formed during a complex sequence of orogenic processes in the middle to lower crust.

Based on the LA-ICP-MS U-Pb zircon ages of four metamorphic samples, we discuss the geochronology and provenance of the Guadaiza nappe, an allochthonous unit that underlies the Ronda peridotites (Betic Cordilleras, Spain).

Deciphering the metamorphic evolution of the Pulo do Lobo metasedimentary domain (SW Iberian Variscides) [PDF]
The Pulo do Lobo domain is one of the units exposed within the orogenic suture zone between the Ossa-Morena and the South Portuguese zones in the SW Iberian Variscides.

Despite the so-called exotic nature of the South Portuguese Zone relatively to the other major domains of the Iberian Massif of peri-Gondwanan affinity, Devonian detrital rocks of the oldest strata in the Iberian Pyrite Belt have a remarkable ...

The eoorthid brachiopod Apheoorthina in the Lower Ordovician of NW Argentina and the dispersal pathways along western Gondwana [PDF]
The eoorthid brachiopod Apheoorthina is reported for the first time from the Lower Ordovician of NW Argentina. It is represented by a species similar to A.

This work assessed the age distribution of Cadomian/Pan-African orogenic events (550-590 and 605-790Ma, respectively) in several zones of Iberian Massif by means of detrital and inherited zircon analysis compilation.

Cadomian metabasites of the Eastern Pyrenees revisited
This study presents a new geochemical, petrological, and geochronological U-Pb dataset from Ediacaran metabasites and associated rocks of the Canigó and Cap de Creus massifs, Eastern Pyrenees. Metabasites are composed of calcic amphibole + plagioclase +

About a peri-Gondwanan-North African enlarged acceptance of the Caledonian Orogeny
The notion of "Caledonian Orogeny" is restricted by most authors to the Ordovician-Devonian thermotectonic events that are associated with the Laurentia-Baltica-Avalonia suturing. However, some views consider an orogeny as the sum of tectonic, metamorphic, and magmatic events accompanying an entire supercontinent assembly or Wilson cycle.
