U-Pb SHRIMP zircon dating of Grenvillian metamorphism in Western Sierras Pampeanas (Argentina) : correlation with the Arequipa-Antofalla craton and constraints on the extent of the Precordillera Terrane [PDF]
The Sierras Pampeanas of Argentina, the largest outcrop of pre-Andean crystalline basement in southern South America, resulted from plate interactions along the proto-Andean margin of Gondwana, from as early as Mesoproterozoic to Late Paleozoic times (e ...

Zircons from Syros, Cyclades, Greece—Recrystallization and Mobilization of Zircon During High-Pressure Metamorphism [PDF]
Zircons were studied from high-pressure/low-temperature metamorphosed meta-igneous lithologies from Syros. These rocks carry several zircon generations related to each other by dissolution-reprecipitation processes. One generation is pristine zircon that

Extent of the Ross Orogen in Antarctica: new data from DSDP 270 and Iselin Bank [PDF]
The Ross Sea is bordered by the Late Precambrian–Cambrian Ross–Delamerian Orogen of East Antarctica and the more Pacific-ward Ordovician–Silurian Lachlan–Tuhua–Robertson Bay–Swanson Orogen.

Nature and timing of Late Mississippian to Mid-Pennsylvanian glacio-eustatic sea-level changes of the Pennine Basin, UK [PDF]
The Pennine Basin of northern England contains a comparatively complete Serpukhovian– Moscovian succession characterized by high-resolution ammonoid zonation and cyclic paralic sedimentation.

U-Pb (Zircon) ages of metavolcanic rocks from the Itaiacoca Group: tectonic implications
The main aim of this work is to present and discuss the U-Pb ages obtained for zircon grains from metavolcanic rocks of theItaiacoca Group. The Itaiacoca Group is a metavolcano-sedimentary sequence, which occurs as a narrow belt between theCunhaporanga granitic batholith to the northwest and the Itapirapuã shear zone to the south and southwest, which ...
