Geochemical and isotopic approaches to constraining provenance of sedimentary rocks
complement the information inferred from petrography. Geochemical approaches have …

Petrographic, geochemical, and isotopic data for turbidites from a variety of tectonic settings
exhibit considerable variability that is related to tectonic association. Passive margin …

Abstract The pre‐Late Cretaceous basement rocks of New Zealand are divided into a
Western Province and an Eastern Province along a tectonic boundary called the Median …

The composition of clastic sediments and rocks is controlled by a complex suite of
parameters operating during pedogenesis, erosion, transport, deposition, and burial. The …

The geochemical composition of the Middle-Upper Proterozoic turbidites in Hunan, South
China is related to provenance and tectonic setting of the sedimentary basin. The turbidites …

Extensive field investigations along the Yarlung–Zangbo suture zone in southern Tibet
reveal the presence of now fragmented remnants of a south-facing intra-oceanic subduction …

Precambrian cratonic pelites from the Kaapvaal Craton in southern Africa have similar REE
patterns with relative LREE enrichment and absence of significant depletion in HREEs. They …

The chemical and isotopic compositions of sediments and dust can be used to trace their
provenance, providing insights into many Earth surface processes. During past glacial …

The study of sedimentary provenance interfaces several of the mainstream geological
disciplines (mineralogy, geochemistry, geochronology, sedimentology, igneous and …

This paper proposes an alternative high-order, non-genetic classification of the basement
rocks of medial New Zealand. More than 90% of the rocks in the Median Tectonic Zone are …
