A geochronological review of magmatism along the external margin of Columbia and in the Grenville-age orogens forming the core of Rodinia
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)A total of 4344 magmatic U-Pb ages in the range 2300 to 800 Ma have been compiled from the Great Proterozoic Accretionary Orogen along the margin of the Columbia / Nuna supercontinent and from the subsequent Grenvillian ... -
Hydrothermal circulation and oil migration at the root of the heterogeneous micro-structure of carbonaceous material in the 2.0 Ga Zaonega Formation, Onega Basin, Russia
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Organic-rich rocks of the 2.0 Ga Zaonega Formation, Karelia, Russia, have been studied extensively to gain understanding of the global carbon cycle and reconstruction of paleo-environments, directly after the Great Oxidation ... -
Late Neoproterozoic–Cambrian magmatism in Dronning Maud Land (East Antarctica): U–Pb zircon geochronology, isotope geochemistry and implications for Gondwana assembly
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Dronning Maud Land (DML) is a key area for the better understanding of the geotectonic history and amalgamation processes of the southern part of Gondwana. Here, we present comprehensive new zircon U–Pb–Hf–O, whole-rock ... -
Linking the basement geology along the Africa-South America coasts in the South Atlantic
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-07)The match of geological units of the dissected Kaoko-Dom Feliciano-Gariep orogenic system exposed along the coasts of the South Atlantic is poorly understood. Two suites of intrusive rocks crop out in the Angra Fria Bay ... -
The onset of flysch sedimentation in the Kaoko Belt (NW Namibia) – Implications for the pre-collisional evolution of the Kaoko–Dom Feliciano–Gariep orogen
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-09)Detrital zircon provenance study of a metamorphosed sedimentary succession in the eastern part of the Kaoko Belt in Namibia has revealed two distinct sources for the Neoproterozoic sedimentation along the southwestern Congo ... -
Tracing the Sveconorwegian orogen into the Caledonides of West Norway: Geochronological and isotopic studies on magmatism and migmatization
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)The Sveconorwegian orogen represents a branch of Grenville-age (~1250–950 Ma) orogenic belts that formed during the construction of the supercontinent Rodinia. This study traces the Sveconorwegian records from its type-area ...
