Orogenic gold deposits have formed over more than 3 billion years of Earth's history,
episodically during the Middle Archean to younger Precambrian, and continuously …

Mineral systems with their core of ore deposits require a rare conjunction of geodynamic
settings, crustal or lithospheric fertility, crustal architecture and suitable host rocks, and …

The Rondonian-San Ignacio Province (1.56–1.30 Ga) is a composite orogen created
through successive accretion of arcs, ocean basin closure and final oblique microcontinent …

This paper presents new geochronologic, isotopic, and geochemical data bearing on the
evolution of Proterozoic crust in SW Mato Grosso state, Brazil, which is at the southern end …

The Sawayaerdun gold deposit is hosted by Carbonaceous metasediments and is
considered to be the largest Muruntau-type gold deposit in the Chinese Tianshan …

Mineral deposits exhibit heterogeneous distributions, with each major deposit type showing
distinctive, commonly unique, temporal patterns. These reflect a complex interplay between …

The Sunsás–Aguapeí province (1.20–0.95 Ga), SW Amazonian Craton, is a key area to
study the heterogeneous effects of collisional events with Laurentia, which shows evidence …

The Wenyu giant gold deposit is hosted in the Precambrian Taihua Supergroup
metamorphic rocks within the Xiaoqinling terrane (Qinling Orogen), on the southern margin …

Whole rock Pb isotope data can be used to determine the provenance of different blocks
within the Rodinia supercontinent, providing a test for paleogeographic reconstructions …

Ion microprobe U–Pb dating of detrital zircons from the Chiquitania and San Ignacio groups
of Eastern Bolivia show that these rocks were derived mostly from a 1765Ma source and …
