This work examines the relations between the Cadomian-type peri-Gondwana blocks and
West and North Africa and Arabia (WNA) and the sediments derived therefrom during the …

Although sometimes controversial, the use of Pb isotope data in geological research of ore
deposits and metal provenance studies in archaeology has proved a useful tool for …

Early Paleozoic accretionary orogens dominated the Western Gondwana margin and were
characterized by nearly continuous subduction associated with crustal extension and back …

Abstract The Moroccan Meseta constitutes a key peri-Gondwanan and Variscan terranes
linking the branches between the SW European Cadomian and the north West African …

Using Gondwana as an example, we show how the geological record can be interrogated to
detect significant changes in mantle convection patterns at critical junctures in Earth's …

Laser ablation U-Pb and Th-Pb single zircon and monazite geochronology was applied to
seven samples from two Variscan gneiss domes in the central Pyrenean Axial Zone. Detrital …

Abstract The Ossa-Morena zone in SW Iberia represents a section of the northern margin of
West Gondwana that formed part of a Cordilleran-type orogenic system during the …

Abstract The Brno Massif is the largest exposed part of the Brunovistulicum (eastern
Bohemian Massif) representing Precambrian basement incorporated into the Central …

This article presents new data to understand the nature of the hidden crystalline basement of
northern Iran and the tectonic setting of Iran during late Neoproterozoic time. The siliciclastic …

Detrital zircon age spectra from the siliciclastic rocks of the Lalla Mouchaa Calcschists and
El Jadida Dolomitic formations (the Coastal Block of the Moroccan Meseta) are dominated …
