Is there a Grenvillian basement in the Guerrero-Morelos Platform of Mexico?

open access: yesGeologica Acta, 2007
In the Guerrero-Morelos platform (Guerrero State, Mexico) the adakitic rocks of Early Tertiary age contain abundant hornblende-rich tonalite xenoliths. Zircon crystals have been concentrated from both adakites and xenoliths, and dated using in-situ U-Pb ...

Amphibole: A major carrier of helium isotopes in crustal rocks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The first evidence for a specific role of amphiboles in He isotope balance of crustal rocks was presented in early contributions by Gerling et al. (1971, 1976).

Holocene Provenance Identification and Climate Control of Indus Basin By Using Radiogenic Techniques and Clay Mineralogy [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Economic and Environment Geology, 2011
Two commonly used isotopic methods (Zircon U-Pb dating and K-feldspar Pb dating) were employed for the Holocene provenance identification within the Indus basin.

From source to sink in central Gondwana: Exhumation of the Precambrian basement rocks of Tanzania and sediment accumulation in the adjacent Congo basin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Apatite fission track (AFT) and (U-Th)/He (AHe) thermochronometry data are reported and used to unravel the exhumation history of crystalline basement rocks from the elevated (>1000 m above sea level) but low-relief Tanzanian Craton.

Possible Jurassic age for part of Rakaia Terrane: implications for tectonic development of the Torlesse accretionary prism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Greywacke sandstone and argillite beds comprising Rakaia Terrane (Torlesse Complex) in mid Canterbury, South Island, New Zealand, are widely regarded as Late Triassic (Norian) in age based on the occurrence of Torlessia trace fossils, Monotis, and other ...

Evolution of the Transantarctic Basin (Southern Gondwana): Insights From Quantitative Sandstone Petrography

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 1, March 2026.
The deposition of the sandstone sedimentary succession of the Beacon Supergroup lasted more than 200 Myr (Devonian to Early Jurassic) in Victoria Land and nearby territories in the so‐called Transantarctic Basin, recording crucial events in the history of the Earth.

The tectonic evolution of the Chuya-Kurai zone (Siberian Altai mountains) by means of multi-method chronology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The Phanerozoic tectonic evolution of the Chuya-Kurai zone was studied by means of zircon U/Pb-dating, apatite fission track (AFT) and apatite (U-Th)/He (AHe) thermochronology performed on basement rocks.

Multiscale Analysis of Bouguer Gravity Anomalies: Unveiling the Deep Structure of Eastern Himalayan Syntaxis Faults

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 1, March 2026.
The Eastern Himalayan Syntaxis (EHS), which is located at the southeastern edge of the Qinghai–Xizang Plateau, is a key region for understanding mountain‐building and subduction processes. Bouguer gravity anomalies derived from the Earth Gravitational Model 2008 free‐air anomaly data following topographic corrections, were analyzed.

Topographic Development History of the Alaska Range [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
he overall goal of this project is to use variations in sediment source through time as a proxy for deciphering the uplift history of the Alaska Range (Fig. 1).
