Constraints on Magma Pressure Distribution During Long Range Lateral Propagation of Giant Radial Dyke Swarms

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Giant dyke swarms are important but enigmatic components of magma transport in the Earth and terrestrial planets. Although widely documented on Earth, Venus, and Mars as extending laterally for 100–1,000 s of kilometers from their magma sources, the reasons for this extraordinary lateral propagation are not known.

A Paleotectonic Atlas of the African Plate: Permian to Recent

open access: yesJournal of Petroleum Geology, Volume 48, Issue 4, Page 231-279, October 2025.
ABSTRACT The fragmentary release of petroleum data defining the deep structure and stratigraphy of African basins has been integrated with existing literature to compile 19 tectonic maps over key geological intervals from Permian to Recent times. African plate margins range in their age of opening from Late Triassic (off Lebanon), through Early/Middle ...

Intermittent Brittle and Ductile Deformation as Recorded by Dating of Ultramylonites and Pseudotachylytes in Extending Continental Crust (Ivrea‐Verbano Zone, Italy)

open access: yesTerra Nova, Volume 37, Issue 5, Page 277-286, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Mylonites and pseudotachylytes play a crucial role in defining the rheology of extending continental crust. In this context, determining the age of brittle‐ductile deformation is fundamental to understanding the rifting evolution stages. Here, we investigate the Premosello Shear Zone, an extensional structure of the Ivrea‐Verbano lower crust ...
