Thermal contraints on high-pressure granulite metamorphism of supracrustal rocks [PDF]
The circumstances leading to the formation and exposure at the Earth's surface of supracrustal granulites are examined. These are defined as sediments, volcanics, and other rock units which originally formed at the surface of the Earth, were ...

Role of Post‐Collisional Magmatism in Continental Growth and Reworking Since the Late Archean
Abstract The mechanisms responsible for the formation and compositional evolution of continental crust remain central questions in Earth science. Post‐collisional magmatism is widely preserved in the continental record; however, its contribution to crustal growth may be underestimated because enriched isotopic signatures obscure juvenile mantle input ...

Age and correlation of supracrustal rocks in the Frederikshåbs Isblink area
Eight weeks field work was spent in the Frederikshåbs Isblink area as a continuation to the investigations carried out in 1967. Half the time was used to further the work on Dalagers Nunatakker and half was spent on the gneisses and supracrustal rocks north of the Isblink in an attempt at correlation across the Isblink between the gneiss-amphibolite ...

Abstract Magmatic output in continental arcs is often variable, with short‐lived flare‐ups separated by prolonged lulls. Flare‐ups commonly coincide with increased crustal thickness, which has been interpreted as both a cause and a consequence of elevated magmatism.

Archaean gneisses and supracrustal rocks of the Tingmiarmiut region, South-East Greenland
In August 1981 a mapping programme was initiated which aimed at the production of the 1:500000 geological map sheet of the Tingmiarmiut-Angmagssalik region (sheet No. 14) (Escher & Nielsen, 1982). In 1982 this programme was eontinued in the Tingmiarmiut Fjord region (fig. 27). Due to exceptionally bad ice conditions and other misfortunes enly a few

Allostratigraphically defined mudstone packages show marked along‐strike thickness variation, interpreted to be related to shifting thrust activity in the orogen; loading cycles lasted about 750 kyr. Close to the orogen, the forebulge is mantled by shelly sandstone whereas far from the orogen, the forebulge is typified by organic‐rich mudstone ...

The Upper Wulashan “Subgroup” at Daqingshan in the Khondalite Belt of the Western Block of the North China Craton contains an Early Paleoproterozoic (2.5–2.45 Ga) supracrustal sequence, incorporating banded iron formations, which we refer to as the ...

Murtoos and murtooized terrains are new types of subglacial landforms found in the Fennoscandian Ice Sheet (FIS) and Cordilleran Ice Sheet (CIS) regions. LiDAR‐based morphometric analyses have revealed substantial morphometric diversity among murtoos and murtoo‐related landforms, while sedimentological excavations have documented a wide range of ...

ABSTRACT Integrated earth modelling aims to combine all available geoscientific information to derive one common earth model. However, combining multiple parameters in a meaningful way remains challenging. In this study, we aim to improve mineral exploration workflows through the integration of new magnetotelluric data with other geophysical and ...

Tourmalinites in supracrustal rocks in the Bjørnesund area, West Greenland
In the mid-Archaean supracrustal rocks of Bjørnesund south of Fiskenæsset metre wide anthophyllite-rich zones are found hosted in mafic volcanics. These zones, which are locally associated with sulphides, are interpreted as alteration zones from hydrothermal solutions which circulated through the volcano-sedimentary pile; in places they contain thin ...
