The relationship between the Yangtze Block (YTB) and the supercontinent Columbia remains unclear. Our new identification of Jinpen Complex in the southern Hong' an orogenic belt provides new constraints on the Palaeoproterozoic tectonic evolution of the ...

PLAGIOGRANITES FROM THE OPHIOLITE COMPLEXES OF DINARIDES AND VARDAR ZONE
Geochemical dana of plagiogranites associated with ophiolite conplexes of Central Dinaride Ophiolite Belt (CDOB) and Vardar Zone Ophiolite Belt (VZOB) are presented.

Charnockites with 2691–2607 Ma magmatic ages from the NMZ show arc‐magmatic geochemical signatures. They correspond to the lower‐crustal equivalent of the Chilimanzi Suite Granite in the Zimbabwe Craton. Lu‐Hf isotopic data of magmatic zircons show negative εHf(t) values (−11.18 to −2.20) with TDMC ages of 3699–3158 Ma, suggesting their protolith ...

The formation of juvenile felsic crust in intra-oceanic arcs (IOAs) represents a fundamental but poorly understood process in Earth's crustal evolution.

We provide petrographic and geochemical characterisation of mantle xenoliths from Koro Island, eastern Fiji. Several lherzolite xenoliths display spinel–pyroxene symplectite textures, including preserved former grain boundaries, consistent with garnet breakdown that we attribute to thinning of a pre‐existing garnet‐facies lithospheric mantle beneath ...

Abstract In the Afghan Hindu Kush, the 223–209 Ma (≤800°C) Salang batholith is part of the Silk‐Road magmatic arc that was built on ∼40‐km‐thick Turan‐Karakum block continental crust. The batholith constitutes the hanging wall of the Herat‐Panjshir‐Badakhshan—the Paleo‐Tethys—suture zone, vestige of the subducted Paleozoic‐early Mesozoic Paleo‐Tethys ...

The Flavrian pluton is a sill-shaped intrusion in the Blake River Group (BRG) volcanic rocks in the Noranda region of the Abitibi greenstone belt. The pluton is dominated by trondhjemites and tonalites, with minor peripheral quartz gabbro and hybrid ...

Abstract Accretionary complexes are key archives of subduction zone processes, preserving records of forearc growth, deformation, and tectonic reorganization. The Chugach–Kodiak accretionary complex of southern Alaska records Jurassic to Cretaceous underplating at shallow to intermediate subduction conditions. The McHugh Complex, an imbricated sequence

The formation of the ophiolitic terrane of SW Norway - relationships between immature island arc volcanic sequences and trondhjemitic complexes on Bømlo [PDF]
Single zircon U/Pb dating, geochemistry, and field descriptions from trondhjemitic and tonalitic intrusions, intruding the Lykling Ophiolite Complex, provide new insights into the origin and evolution of the Early Ordovician ophiolitic terrane of SW ...

In the Tafí del Valle region, in northwestern Argentina, several intrusive bodies of lower Paleozoic age were emplaced in the metasedimentary Puncoviscana Formation, belonging to the Sierras Pampeanas. Four intrusive bodies outcrop in the study area: La
