Abstract Neogene-Quaternary wedge-top-basins arose during the Sicilian fold and thrust belt (FTB) build-up.

Abstract:

AbstractThe classical S–I–A-type granites from the Lachlan Orogen, SE Australia, formed as a tectonic end-member of the accretionary orogenic spectrum, the Paleozoic Tasmanides. The sequence of S- to I- to A-type granite is repeated at least three times. All the granites are syn-extensional, formed in a dominantly back-arc setting behind a single, stepwise-retreating arc system between 530 and 230 Ma. Peralkaline granites are rare. Systematic S–I–A progressions indicate the progressive dilution of an old crustal component as magmatism evolved from arc (S-type) to proximal back-arc (I-type) to

AbstractThe continental Asia is mainly composed of three major tectonic regimes, the Tethys, Paleo Asian Ocean, and West Pacific.

Tectonic evolution of the Asia brings up a unique fault system and tectonic geomorphological features in the mainland China. Also, it provides a geodynamic background for the formation and evolution of metallogeneses and mineral systems, resulting in nonuniform distribution of tectono‐me

Eighteen test studies (2 from ocean island; 2 from ocean island/continental rift; 6 from continental rift; 4 from continental arc; 2 from island arc; 1 from mid-ocean ridge, and 1 from collision) of relatively fresh rocks fully confirmed the satisfactory functioning of these diagrams for all tectonic fields for which they were proposed.

A strong asymmetry in vertical basin architecture and the linearity in the outcrop pattern of the preserved sedimentary sequence are presumed to have developed in an elongated trough during the initial basinal rifting stage.

Abstract. This study presents results from apatite fission track (AFT) thermochronology to investigate the thermal history and exhumation dynamics of the Rio Negro–Juruena basement, situated within the western Guiana Shield of the Amazonian Craton. AFT dating and associated thermal history modeling in South America has largely been restricted to the plate's margins (e.g., Andean active margin, Brazilian passive margin, and others). Our paper reports on low-temperature thermochronological data from the internal part of the western Guiana Shield for the first time. This area is part of a vast cr

Abstract:

Geochemical analysis of sediments from Sahaiawei-1 Well of the Northern Delta Depobelt in the Niger Delta Basin was carried out to classify the sediments, determine the provenance, tectonic setting and depositional environment. Twenty (20) ditch cutting samples between 1500 and 10730 ft. were subjected to X-ray fluorescence analysis to determine the elemental composition. The result for the classification of the sediments shows that the sediments were classified as Fe-shale and Fe-sand. The discriminant function diagrams for provenance signature and tectonic setting show that the sediments wer

Abstract:

The eastern region of Taiwan is underpinned by a complex tectonic setting that forms the basis for numerous landforms, such as the Coast Range, Longitudinal Valley and Central Range, along with a rocky shoreline punctuated by a series of scenic beaches. In many ways, this tectonic setting resembles that of the west coast of North America. Taiwan&rsquo;s climate ranges from tropical monsoon (Am) with periodic typhoons to temperate and even subalpine climates based on dramatic changes in altitude caused by the tectonic setting. This situation produces a host of different ecological zones bas

Abstract:

Sedimentary rock types and basin geometries are interrelated with characteristic tectonic settings. In fact, sedimentation pattern at central stable cratonic areas are not same as that on continental margins. Kaladgi-Badami (KB) basinal feldspathic arenite (i.e., arkose) dominated rocks contain more plagioclase than potassium feldspar unlike the opposite scenario of Phanerozoic sandstones. Tectonic history of the KB basin has been interpreted since basin development, sedimentation through interrupting hiatus, tectonic reworking, redeposition at later developed depocenters and later exhumation,

Abstract:

The Paleoproterozoic Taltson magmatic zone is one of the key tectonic features of western Laurentia. The existing tectonic model for the belt envisions its formation by subduction of oceanic crust beneath a continental margin, followed by direct collision between formerly separate crustal blocks. We tested this model by comparing the large geochemical and isotopic database available for Taltson magmatic zone granitoids with similar databases for Phanerozoic granitoid suites from different tectonic environments. The comparison reveals that the early granitoid suite of the Taltson magmatic zone,

Shale contains a large number of nanopores. The nanopores control the reservoir structure. The formation of nanopores in shale is closely related to the sedimentary environment. The palaeosedimentary structural background determines the provenance and sedimentary diagenesis of mud shale during shale deposition, refines the palaeo-shale and palaeo-sedimentary-tectonic environments of the Longmaxi Formation in the southern Sichuan Basin by elemental geochemical means, and determines the palaeo-deposition of the Longmaxi Formation.

Abstract Elysium Planitia is the youngest volcanic terrain on Mars, and the only region that exhibits evidence of ongoing magmatic activity today. This makes Elysium Planitia crucial for understanding the tectonic, magmatic, volcanic, and thermal state of the planet. The 2014–2015 Holuhraun eruption in the Icelandic Highland provides a unique opportunity to study a large-volume, fissure-fed eruption—with associated lava–water interactions—that serves as a terrestrial analog for volcanic terrains in Elysium Planitia. Here, we detail the key similarities between the Holuhraun and Elysium Planiti

Abstract:

The Phu Khanh Basin is a Tertiary sedimentary basin located in deep a water area adjacent to the continental shelf of Central Vietnam, which has been begun to form since the Eocene(?)/Oligocene to the Quaternary. This area has previously only been briefly studied based on satellite magnetic, gravity data and some 2D multichannel seismic lines. In this article, the authors present the most recently interpreted and merged gravity data to update the research results on geological structure, tectonics and the history of geological evolution of the Phu Khanh Basin, which are considered significant
