Differential Mountain‐Building in the South Tian Shan Revealed by Multi‐Spatiotemporal Foreland Deformation

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Understanding how spatially variable mountain‐building processes proceed within large intracontinental orogens provides critical insights into continental tectonics and regional paleoenvironmental evolution. Here, we address this issue in the central South Tian Shan (cSTS), a key transitional segment between the well‐studied eastern and ...

Chemical Discrimination of Rutile From Different Metamorphic Source Rocks: Dealing With Hierarchical Data Structures in Random Forest Classification

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 44, Issue 2, Page 112-137, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Rutile provides a wealth of petrochronological information in metamorphic geology and due to its high stability during processes of the sedimentary cycle, rutile takes a special position in sedimentary provenance analysis. Besides being one of the classical minerals datable using the U–Pb system, rutile incorporates a broad range of trace ...

Location, Location, Location: Monazite Behaviour During UHT Metamorphism and Melt Crystallization

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 44, Issue 2, Page 158-175, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Monazite is a robust mineral for recording the suprasolidus evolution of migmatites and granulites. However, monazite commonly has diverse compositions and yields variable dates in a single sample; understanding the controls on monazite behaviour and composition during partial melting and melt crystallization are not always straightforward ...

New Geochronological Constraints on the Late Palaeozoic Tarija Basin, Southern Bolivia: Tectonic and Palaeoclimatic Implications

open access: yesTerra Nova, Volume 38, Issue 1, Page 9-18, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The Carboniferous‐Permian Tarija basin of southern Bolivia evolved under major tectonic and climatic influence. The timing of transition from glacially influenced to arid conditions, after the Gondwanide tectonic event, has been based mainly on palynological correlations.

An archean suture zone in the Tobacco Root Mountains? (1984) Evolution of Archean Continental Crust, SW Montana (1985) [PDF]

open access: yes
The Lake Plateau area of the Beartooth Mountains, Montana were mapped and geochemically sampled. The allochthonous nature of the Stillwater Complex was interpreted as a Cordilleran-style continental margin.

P‐T‐t‐d Evolution of Low‐Grade Metamorphic Xenotime, Eastern Alps (Austria)

open access: yesTerra Nova, Volume 38, Issue 1, Page 65-76, February 2026.
ABSTRACT In situ LA‐ICP‐MS U‐Pb dating of xenotime was used to establish the age of low‐grade metamorphism in Permian metasediments of the Austroalpine Unit (Eastern Alps, Austria). Complexly zoned xenotime in chloritoid‐bearing metasedimentary samples possesses distinct MREE‐rich domains. In the eastern sample, this domain yielded a date of c. 135 Ma,
