TL;DR: The Transcontinental Proterozoic provinces as mentioned in this paper consist of many distinct lithotectonic entities that can be defined on the basis of regional lithology, regional structure, U-Pb ages from zircons, and regional geophysical anomalies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Basement Rocks in Continental Interior of United States
TL;DR: In this article, a geologic history of the continental interior of the United States is described by describing several selected areas from north to south, and the various areas illustrate the methods used in preparing a map of the buried basement.
Journal ArticleDOI
Using Strontium Isotopes to Determine the Age and Origin of Gypsum and Anhydrite Beds
TL;DR: In this article, the authors use the variation of 87Sr/86Sr in seawater with time to determine the age of calcium sulfate beds precipitated from brine derived from seawater.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ages of pre-rift basement and synrift rocks along the conjugate rift and transform margins of the Argentine Precordillera and Laurentia
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used U/Pb zircon data from basement rocks in the southern part of the Argentine Precordillera (Cuyania) terrane to support the interpretation that the Argentine terrane was rifted from the Ouachita embayment of the Iapetan margin of Laurentia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Parent Brine of the Castile Evaporites (Upper Permian), Texas and New Mexico
TL;DR: The Castile brine has been considered to have been derived from seawater by two versions of the closed-basin drawdown model, which call for deposition from a mixed brine, in part marine and in large part non-marine.
