First evidence of >3.2 Ga continental crust in the Yangtze craton of south China and its implications for Archean crustal evolution and Phanerozoic tectonics

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used an ion microprobe (SHRIMP II) to analyze trondhjemitic magmatism at 2.90-2.95 Ga in the Kongling area of the Yangtze craton, south China, about 150 km south of the Permian-Triassic Qinling-Dabie-Sulu orogenic belt.
Journal ArticleDOI

A New Understanding of the Provinces of the Amazon Craton Based on Integration of Field Mapping and U-Pb and Sm-Nd Geochronology

TL;DR: The interpretation of U-Pb and Sm-Nd isotopic data has led to a new understanding of the subdivision and evolution of the Amazon Craton during Precambrian time, with major improvements and changes made to the previous Rb-Sr based model.
Journal ArticleDOI

West African provenance for Saxo-Thuringia (Bohemian Massif): Did Armorica ever leave pre-Pangean Gondwana? – U/Pb-SHRIMP zircon evidence and the Nd-isotopic record

TL;DR: In this paper, SHRIMP U/Pb geochronology on detrital and inherited zircon grains from pre-Variscan basement rocks of the northern part of the Bohemian Massif (Saxo-Thuringia, Germany) demonstrates a distinct West African provenance for sediments and magmatic rocks in this part of peri-Gondwana.
Journal ArticleDOI

Constraints on crustal evolution and gold metallogeny in the Northwestern Jiaodong Peninsula, China, from SHRIMP U–Pb zircon studies of granitoids

TL;DR: In this paper, SHRIMP U-Pb studies of complexly zoned zircons of the Linglong, Luanjiahe and Guojialing granitoid suites suggest that the Jiaodong Peninsula is underlain by Precambrian basement with components up to 3.4 Ga old.
Journal ArticleDOI

The neoproterozoic Mantiqueira Province and its African connections: a zircon-based U-Pb geochronologic subdivision for the Brasiliano/Pan-African systems of orogens

TL;DR: The Mantiqueira Province (MPV) is a large, complex structural province deformed by the Neoproterozoic/Early Paleozoic Brasiliano Orogenic event in South America as discussed by the authors.
