Ductile Extrusion Triggered by Continental Collision in NE Brazil

Terra Nova, Volume 38, Issue 4, Page 266-277, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The Borborema Province in northeastern Brazil hosts one of the world's largest strike‐slip shear zone networks, active during the late Neoproterozoic assembly of West Gondwana. Whether these shear zones initiated during active continental collision or as a post‐orogenic response to far‐field stresses remains debated.

Trace element composition of silicate minerals from Kunashak Meteorite (L6)

Записки Горного института
Major (EPMA) and trace (SIMS) element geochemistry in the silicate minerals (olivine, pyroxene and plagioclase) of Kunashak equilibrated ordinary chondrite (L6) is described. No variations in the major element concentrations of the silicate minerals have

Chervurt formation of the Kolmozero-Voron'ya belt and Keivy domain: A geodynamic reference point for spatial and temporal heterogeneity during the formation of the ancient median massif

Vestnik MGTU
The paper considers the possible correlation of the rocks of the Chervurt Formation in the Kolmozero-Voron'ya zone with its constituent supracrustal complexes and the formations of the adjacent Keivy domain, as well as the role that metasedimentary rocks

Paleomagnetic Constraints on the Separation of the Olongbuluke Block From the North China Block During the Late Cambrian–Middle Ordovician and Its Tectonic Significance

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 13, 16 July 2026.
Abstract The collisional evolution of the micro‐blocks in the northeastern Tibetan Plateau is relatively well constrained. However, the reason why a fragment of the North China Block, the Olongbuluke Block, became separated from North China by the Central Qilian Block (a fragment of the South China Block) remains unclear.

Dark Land Surfaces Allow for Refugia That Could Support Photosynthetic Life on the Surface of Snowball Earth

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 13, 16 July 2026.
Abstract Photosynthetic eukaryotic algae survived the Neoproterozoic Snowball Earth events, indicating that liquid‐water refugia existed somewhere on the surface. We examine the potential for refugia at the coldest time of a snowball event, before CO2 had risen and with high‐albedo ice on the frozen ocean, before it became darkened by dust deposition ...

Paleosecular Variation Constraints on Geomagnetic Field Morphology at ca. 1100 Ma

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 13, 16 July 2026.
Abstract Paleosecular variation provides a statistical test of long‐term geomagnetic field morphology, but its behavior across Precambrian polarity regimes remains poorly constrained. We compile a virtual geomagnetic pole dispersion data set spanning 1130–1070 Ma and apply nonlinear Model G fitting to evaluate field structure across the interval ...

The Significance of Inherited Crustal Thickening in Surface Uplift of Hangai Dome in Central Mongolia

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 13, 16 July 2026.
Abstract The Hangai Dome in central Mongolia represents one of the most prominent intracontinental uplifts, yet the relative contributions of crustal and mantle dynamics in sustaining its high topography remain unresolved. Here we jointly invert Rayleigh wave dispersion and receiver function data to constrain crustal and uppermost mantle structures ...

Geochemical characteristics of titanite and U-Pb age of garnet from mineral mines of the Southern Urals

Записки Горного института
Mineralogical-geochemical (SIMS method) study of titanite and geochronological (ID-TIMS method) study of garnets from mineral mines of the Southern Urals has been carried out. The mineral associations containing titanite belong to four contrasting types:
