Abstract:
The assembly of the Mesoproterozoic super-continent Rodinia of southern Africa is evidenced by the fonnation of supracrustal belts and related granitic magmatism mainly between 1400 and 900 Ma and known collectively throughout Africa as the Kibaran event. As these new crustal segments were being fonned, the ancient cratons were flexed and, in some regions, fractured. The associated intracratonic mafic magmatism is preserved as mafic dyke swanns in certain parts of southern Africa. Three dyke swarms, namely the Kamativi, Mutare and Guruve are believed to be of "Kibaran" age (although their age

Rocks provide insight into ancient times before complex animals existed. The oldest sedimentary rocks in Grand Canyon (the Bass Formation) allow us to glimpse into what things might have been like over a billion years ago. These rocks record the time known as the Mesoproterozoic Era (1.6 to 1.0 billion years ago), otherwise known as the ‘boring billion’. These rocks are thought to be the right age to indicate the end of an oddly stable world when continents were quiet and life was calm, yet they predate younger rocks that record extreme events.

Abstract:
The first eukaryotes are found in the geological record at ~1.6 Ga, a further 800 million years later they became more abundant and diverse, and only during the Ediacaran did they start shaping ecosystems. This work studies a marine and a lacustrine aquatic ecosystem at the edge of the Mesoproterozoic (~1.1 Ga) to gauge the role of eukaryotes and to investigate the environmental conditions that may have prohibited their proliferation. The evolutionary state of the earliest eukaryotic fossils remains unresolved. The first unambiguous stem group eukaryote appears at 1.2 Ga, but modern ferns occu

Abstract:
The Gawler Range Volcanics (GRV) and the co-magmatic Hiltaba Suite (HS) granite form a Mesoproterozoic Silicic-dominated Large Igneous Province (SLIP) cropping out over a vast area in the central Gawler craton, South Australia. Only a few SLIP have been recognised in the world; they occur throughout geological history and in both intraplate and plate margin settings. The igneous province in question, or Gawler SLIP, was emplaced in an intracontinental setting during assembly of the supercontinent Laurentia. Since emplacement, the Gawler craton remained an area of positive relief, allowi

Abstract:
The Gawler Range Volcanics (GRV), located in the central region of South Australia, represents the eruption of enormous volumes of felsic lava (25,000km3 ) at the beginning of the Mesoproterozoic (~1.59Ga) and is closely associated with the emplacement of the widespread Hiltaba Suite (HS) granites both spatially and temporally. Since the discovery of the Giant Olympic Dam Cu-U-Au-Ag deposit in 1975 (which is intimately related to the emplacement of the HS), both the HS and GRV have attracted vast amounts of attention from research, government and exploration groups.

Abstract:
The Gawler Craton, South Australia, consists of late Archaean to early Mesoproterozoic igneous and supracrustal lithologies which preserve a deformation history lasting the duration of the Palaeoproterozoic. Understanding the evolution of the Gawler Craton is of significance in global supercontient reconstructions as it preserves evidence for earliest Palaeoproterozoic collisional orogenesis (c. 2460-2430 Ma) and, in conjunction with the North Australian Craton and Antarctica, has often been correlated to the western margin of Laurentia. In addition, the Gawler Craton is also host to the world

D.Phil.<br>The western margin of the Archean Kaapvaal Craton, at its contact with the polydeformed and metamorphosed Proterozoic Namaqua Province, is host to four volcanosedimentary successions of Mesoproterozoic age (1.1-1.3 Ga) that occur in close spatial and temporal association to each other. These are the Areachap Group, the Leerkrans Formation of the Wilgenhoutsdrif Group and the two volcanosedimentary successions that comprise the Koras Group. There has been protracted debate as to the exact nature, origin, age and tectonic evolution of these successions, particularly as they occur imme

Abstract:
The Mesoproterozoic Bushmanland Subprovince of northwestern South Africa forms the western continuation of the transcontinental Namaqua-Natal Metamorphic Province, a crustal domain affected by the 1020-1220 Ma Namaquan Orogeny. Cross-cut by several large faults, the Bushmanland Subprovince can be subdivided into a southern Garies Terrain and northern Aggeneys Terrain. The supracrustal rocks of the Aggeneys Terrain (i.e. Bushmanland Group), comprise a thin (<1 km thick) metavolcano-sedimentary succession composed of a very consistent, shallow marine duplex of sandstone-shale to chemogenic metas

Abstract:
The Llano Uplift of central Texas contains the largest exposure of Mesoproterozoic rocks along southern Laurentia and is thus crucial to the understanding of orogenesis and plate reconstructions along a portion of one of the largest orogens in the world. Most of the current understanding of the Mesoproterozoic tectonic evolution of southern Laurentia comes from the southeastern portion of the Llano Uplift. To fully characterize the tectonic evolution Llano Uplift, detailed mapping is necessary in the less-studied western Llano Uplift. The Mesoproterozoic Llano Uplift exposes mid-crustal, poly
