New U-Pb SHRIMP zircon ages for pre-variscan orthogneisses from Portugal and their bearing on the evolution of the Ossa-morena tectonic zone [PDF]
, 2006 New SHRIMP U-Pb zircon ages for the Portalegre and Alcáçovas orthogneisses document a complex pre-Variscan history for the Iberian basement in Portugal. The available geochemical and geochronological data for the Alcáçovas orthogneiss (ca.

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract The Appalachian‐Caledonian orogen was built during the Paleozoic by accretion of peri‐Gondwanan terranes onto Laurentia, culminating in the formation of Pangea. During the Mesozoic, Pangea broke apart, displacing one section of the belt to eastern North America and another to northwestern Europe.

The Permo-Carbonigferous Facies Development in Thailand: A plate tectonic discussion [PDF]
, 1989 The Permo-Carboniferous sedimentary facies development in Thailand reflects the late Variscan orogeny in S E Asia. During the Carboniferous and Permian, a N -S trending trough separated the " S h a n Thai Craton" and the "Indosinia Craton".

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract The Mont Blanc granite, as other deformed granites, has splitting properties attributed to two perpendicular planes: one formed by aligned fractures and the other by aligned micas in foliation planes. It is shown that this microstructure results from ductile deformation with stress‐driven dissolution of quartz and feldspar that passively ...

Maturity modelling of well 110/07b- 6 [PDF]
, 2016 This report details one-dimensional (1D) maturity modelling of well 110/07b- 6 in the Carboniferous rocks of the UK Irish Sea for the 21CXRM Palaeozoic project. The aim of the maturity modelling was to predict when the source rock reached the oil and gas

Lateral termination of the north-directed Alpine orogeny and onset of westward escape in the Western Alpine arc: Structural and sedimentary evidence from the external zone [PDF]
, 2011 31p.International audienceThe initial propagation of the Western Alpine orogen was directed northwestward, as shown by basement-involved and Mesozoic sedimentary cover compressional structures and by the early foreland basins evolution.

Evolution and Provenance of the Polish Rotliegend in the Southern Permian Basin
Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract The Southern Permian Basin (SPB) has been extensively explored for ore deposits. However, a comprehensive evaluation of the remaining copper potential, specifically for sediment‐hosted stratiform copper system, remains lacking. This study applies goSPL, an open‐source landscape and stratigraphic evolution model, to reconstruct the Permian rift‐
