Chemical Geodynamics of Granitoid Magmatism During a Pacific‐Philippine Sea Plate Transition in Southwest Japan

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Granitoid magmatism along the western Pacific margin records interactions between subduction dynamics and crust–mantle processes; however, the links between plate reorganization and magma‐source evolution remain debated. Here we integrate U–Pb zircon geochronology with Pb–Sr–Nd–Hf isotope systematics to investigate Cretaceous–Paleogene ...

U–Pb and Sm–Nd geochronology of amphibolites from the Curaçá Belt, São Francisco Craton, Brazil : tectonic implications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The Curaçá terrane is part of the Itabuna–Salvador–Curaçá (I–S–C) Paleoproterozoic orogen in the São Francisco craton, northeastern Brazil, and comprises supracrustal rocks, gneisses of their probable basement, amphibolites, and mafic-ultramafic Cu ...

Timing of Metamorphism and Deformation in the Neoarchean Quetico Metasedimentary Belt, Superior Craton, Constrained by Garnet Trace‐Element Mapping and Lu–Hf Geochronology

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 44, Issue 4, Page 265-286, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The Quetico subprovince of the Superior Province is among the largest metasedimentary belts globally and provides evidence of tectonic processes at play during the final stages of Archean cratonization. Although previous studies have shown that deformation and metamorphism of the 2.7‐Ga turbiditic protolith resulted in regional subvertical ...

Synmetamorphic Cu remobilization during the Pan-African orogeny: Microstructural, petrological and geochronological data on the kyanite-micaschists hosting the Cu(–U) Lumwana deposit in the Western Zambian Copperbelt of the Lufilian belt [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
International audienceThe Pan-African Lufilian orogenic belt hosts world-class Cu deposits. In the Congolese Copperbelt (DRC), Cu(-Co) deposits, are mostly hosted within evaporitic and siliciclastic Neoproterozoic metasedimentary rocks (Mines Subgroup ...

Garnet–Clinopyroxene Double‐Layered Coronae in a Metagabbronorite From the High‐Grade Metamorphic Gföhl Unit, Moldanubian Zone

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 44, Issue 4, Page 311-336, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigates garnet–clinopyroxene double‐layered coronae in a metagabbronorite from the high‐grade metamorphic Gföhl Unit (Bohemian Massif). The coronae formed at the interfaces between relic magmatic orthopyroxene, still preserved in the cores of the coronae, and the plagioclase‐rich rock matrix.

Constraining the Protoliths of the Apollo Granulite Suite

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
Abstract The Apollo granulite suite represents the metamorphosed products of impact-contaminated polymict and monomict lunar breccias. We combine bulk and mineral major and trace element systematics with noble gas isotopes to constrain the highland lithologies that contributed to the feldspathic granulite suite protoliths.

Negative Frictional Healing in Icelandic Geothermal (IDDP‐2) Core Samples: Potential Implications for Detachment‐Fault Mechanics

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Detachment faults in mid‐ocean ridge settings accommodate tectonic extension. These faults are potentially weakened by alteration through phyllosilicate‐ and amphibole‐mineral formation. Seven core samples taken from the Krafla and Reykjanes geothermal fields in Iceland allow for the study of the effect of mineral alteration on the frictional ...

Epidote Records (De)hydration From the Seafloor Through Subduction and Underplating: Implications for Subduction Zone Fluid Budgets and Slow Slip

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract When, where, and how much fluid is released from subducting oceanic crust control deformation, element cycling, and magmatism in subduction zones. However, the palimpsest of tectonometamorphic processes in the exhumed rock record complicates the relation of geologic observations to geodynamic models of subduction fluid sources and transport ...

High- and Ultrahigh-Pressure Metamorphism in the North Qaidam and South Altyn Terranes, Western China [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The North Qaidam and South Altyn terranes extend approximately 1000 km across the northern Tibetan Plateau, and five localities preserve evidence of Early Paleozoic high-pressure (HP) or ultrahigh-pressure (UHP) metamorphism, including the presence of ...
