Abstract:
East Seram District, Central Maluku, and West Seram regency is located on the island of Seram, where research was conducted, save a lot of cultural, one of the paleolithic period, which is a long time not received attention from environmental researchers. It is used as the basis of the main issues that include geology in general. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to perform surface geological mapping in general as one of the efforts to provide geological information, while the goal is to determine aspects of geomorphology, stratigraphy, structural geology associated with the existence of paleolithic sites in the study area. The research method begins with a literature review, surveys, analysis, and interpretation of field data. Environmental scanning provides information about the landscape consists of plains morphological units, units of corrugated morphology weak, strong corrugated morphology unit, and units of karst morphology. The river berstadia old-mature river stadium, periodical/permanent river, and river episodic/intermittent river. Constituent rock is sandstone, limestone, marl, andesite, tuff, schist, volcanic breccias, reef limestones, conglomerates, and alluvial. Geological structures such as faults and folds. Ceram Research discovered 14 Paleolithic sites. From the analysis of petrology, lithic tools made of jasper rocks, chert, metalimestone, flint, and quartzite. Rock as raw material litik tool, found in the middle of Seram Island, then spread to the west and to the east which has a flat relief. ABSTRAKKabupaten Seram Bagian Timur, Kabupaten Maluku Tengah, dan Kabupaten Seram Bagian Barat terletak di Pulau Seram, yang menjadi lokasi penelitian, menyimpan banyak tinggalan budaya, salah satunya dari masa paleolitik, yang sekian lama tak mendapat perhatian dari para peneliti lingkungan. Hal inilah yang dijadikan dasar permasalahan utama yang mencakup geologi secara umum. Oleh sebab itu, maksud penelitian ini dalah untuk melakukan pemetaan geologi permukaan secara umum sebagai salah satu upaya untuk menyajikan informasi geologi, sedangkan tujuannya adalah untuk mengetahui aspek-aspek geomorfologi, stratigrafi, struktur geologi yang dikaitkan dengan keberadaan di situs-situs paleolitik wilayah penelitian. Metode penelitian diawali dengan kajian pustaka, survei, analisis, dan interpretasi data lapangan. Pengamatan lingkungan memberikan informasi tentang bentang alamnya terdiri yang dari satuan morfologi dataran, satuan morfologi bergelombang lemah, satuan morfologi bergelombang kuat, dan satuan morfologi karst.

Resumo: A Nappe Luminárias corresponde a uma estrutura alongada de orientação NNE-SSW com cerca de 40 km de extensão, situada na porção sul do Orógeno Brasília (idade neoproterozoica), bordejando o Cráton do São Francisco. Tal estrutura é composta majoritariamente por metapelitos e quartzitos do Grupo Carrancas. O presente trabalho foca na caracterização metamórfica de metapelitos e quartzitos do Grupo Carrancas na Nappe Luminárias. Para tal, utiliza-se modelagem metamórfica através de pseudosseções (THERMOCALC), química mineral e os geotermômetros Zr em rutilo e Ti em quartzo. Com base na mineralogia e nas relações texturais e estruturais observadas em lâmina, foram identificadas paragêneses distintas nas porções norte, centro-norte e sul da Nappe Luminárias. Na porção norte, a paragênese é Cld+Chl+Ky+Rt+Qtz+Ms. Na porção centro-norte, ocorre a paragênese St+Grt+Rt+Qtz+Ms, com biotita, clorita e ilmenita retrometamórfica. A assembleia de pico metamórfico registrada nas rochas da porção sul é Grt+Ky+St+Rt+Qtz+Ms com biotita, clorita e ilmenita retrometamórfica. Os resultados indicam a presença de um gradiente metamórfico com condições variando de fácies xisto-verde na porção norte (560˚C e 10kbar) e centro-norte (610˚C e 12,5kbar) a fácies anfibolito / eclogito na porção sul (630˚C e 15kbar). As rochas metapelíticas da Nappe de Luminárias evoluíram através de trajetórias P-T-t horárias, que indicam aquecimento seguido de uma forte descompressão. Análises de elementos traço em grãos d...

Abstract: The Luminárias Nappe is a 40 km long, NNE-SSW elongated structure, located in the southern portion of the Neoproterozoic Brasília Orogen, which borders the São Francisco Craton (Minas Gerais, Brazil). It is composed of high aluminium metapelites and quartzites from the Carrancas Group. The present work focuses on the metamorphic characterization of the metapelites and the quartzites of the Luminárias Nappe by means of pseudosection modelling, mineral chemistry and the Zr-in-rutile thermometer. In the northern portion, the paragenesis is Cld + Chl + Ky + Rt + Qtz + Ms. In the center-north portion, the paragenesis is St + Grt + Rt + Qtz + Ms, with retro-metamorphic biotite, chlorite and ilmenite. The metamorphic peak assembly recorded in rocks from the southern portion is Grt + Ky + St + Rt + Qtz + Ms with retro-metamorphic biotite, chlorite and ilmenite. Results indicate the presence of a metamorphic gradient with conditions increasing from green-schist facies in the northern portion (560˚C and 10kbar) and center-north (610˚C and 12,5kbar) to amphibolite / eclogite facies in the southern portion (630˚C and 15kbar). Metapelitic rocks of the Luminárias Nappe followed a clockwise P-T-t path, characterised by an initial heating stage that is followed by strong decompression. Analyses of trace elements in rutile grains derived from quartzite indicate that they can be used for temperature calculation using the geothermometer Zr in rutile. However, the data shows that the homogenis... (Complete abstract click electronic access below)

Abstract:
The Proterozoic syn-orogenic supra-crustal package exposed in the Tusas Mountain Range in northern New Mexico includes the anomalously thick, clean, ultramature Ortega Formation quartzite (Bauer and Williams, 1989). A unique Mn-bearing horizon spans the basal contact of the quartzite and contains Mn-andalusite, quartz, hematite, rutile, zircon, monazite, phyllosilicates, and locally kyanite and gahnite in intermittent aluminous, hematite-bearing layers, on the surface of cross-beds, concentrated in high strain zones, and on cleavage planes. Large-scale Mn zoning in Mn-andalusite results from a decrease in Mn content away from localized Mn highs (XMn of up to 0.76) that commonly correspond with the location of high-Mn core regions. High Mn core regions are included in Mn-andalusite, preserve some of the earliest fabrics, and are associated with sedimentary structures (i.e. cross beds and graded beds). Both hematite and rutile from the Mn horizon are rich in trace elements, and hematite contains zones of rutile mineralization that create patchy/mottled, wormy, cross-hatched, and/or banded textures within the hematite that could be linked with oxidation-exsolution textures in ilmenite and spinel. The Mn horizon may be a result of (1) the formation of an Fe-Mn oxyhydroxide crust through extensive lateritic weathering of the metavolcanic units and/or (2) the chemical deposition of Fe and Mn phases in an oxygen stratified enriched basin environment. Mn-andalusite preserves subtle textures in the Mn distribution and interference colors of the birefringence that can be used to understand mineral replacement and microstructural relationships in otherwise an well-annealed quartzite. A feathery texture that resembles the vi crystal habit of a phyllosilicate, such as pyrophyllite, locally preserves crenulation cleavages. High-Mn halos around kyanite and localized areas of low Mn content in Mn-andalusite that mimic crystal shapes together represent areas of kyanite replacement. The general tectonic histories preserved in the Mn-andalusite layer of the Hopewell Lake-Jawbone Mountain area, Quartzite Peak, and Kiowa Mountain of the Tusas Mountains include the growth of an M1 mineral assemblage in association with D1 (kyanite and/or pyrophyllite), the growth of an M2 assemblage post-D2 (kyanite and/or Mn-andalusite), and the growth of an M3 assemblage syn-D3 (a second generation of kyanite and/or Mn-andalusite). In the Hopewell Lake-Jawbone Mountain region, Mn-andalusite of the Hopewell anticline preserves phyllosilicate defined crenulation cleavages while the Jawbone syncline is dominated by a history of only kyanite growth suggesting a metamorphic divide between the anticline and syncline that could be a result of the movement along a late-stage D3 fault at or near Route 64. At Kiowa Mountain, high-Mn halos and low Mn regions suggest that Mn-andalusite replaced kyanite when changing P-T conditions during M2 lead to an Mn-andalusite-only M2 assemblage. Textures preserved in the Mn-distribution and interference colors of Mnandalusite are an essential tool for understanding the structural and metamorphic histories of the Mn horizon and the Ortega Formation quartzite.

Abstract:
This chapter is only a brief introduction to lithic archaeological materials. Archaeologists with but little knowledge of rocks and rock-forming minerals are urged to learn about them in greater detail than that presented here. Lithic resources are abundant in almost every archaeological site, and lithic artifacts are invariably the best preserved of any remains. Early societies learned how to exploit these resources, and the use and production of lithics go back to the earliest known sites, at least 1.5 million years. In fact, the earliest cultures are distinguished on the basis of their lithic industries and lithic artifacts. Horror stories in misidentification of lithics abound. Not only have misidentified artifacts proven embarrassing to the archaeologist, but also they have made it difficult to make meaningful comparisons of different societies using published descriptions. In addition, conservation strategies for historical monuments cannot be developed without an understanding of the nature of the material used in their construction. Some egregious examples of ignorance of the rocks and minerals from our personal experience include the following: 1. An archaeologist asked if a quartzite scraper was either flint or chert. When told that it was neither, he asked, "Well then, which is it more like?" (answer, still neither). 2. Egyptian basalt statues have been called limestone in publications (and several other rock types). 3. Sources for alabaster were searched to explain a trading link between a site and elsewhere when the geological map showed the site was adjacent to a mountain of gypsum, the mineral component of alabaster (the gypsum may have merely rolled down the hillside to the workshops, where it became the more salable alabaster). 4. Conservators searched for methods to preserve an allegedly granitic historic monument, or so it had been identified. Chemical analysis revealed only abundant Ca, Mg, and carbonate. Fossils were also abundant in the "granite," which dissolved easily in hydrochloric acid (the "granite" was clearly limestone). Petrology is the branch of geology that deals with the occurrence, origin, and history of rocks. Petrography is concerned with descriptions of rocks, their mineralogy, structures, and textures.
