A geochronological review of magmatism along the external margin of Columbia and in the Grenville-age orogens forming the core of Rodinia
Johansson, Åke; Bingen, Bernard; Huhma, Hannu; Waight, Tod; Vestergaard, Rikke; Soesoo, Alvar; Skridlaite, Grazina; Krzeminska, Ewa; Shumlyanskyy, Leonid; Holland, Mark E.; Holm-Denoma, Christopher; Teixeira, Wilson; Faleiros, Frederico M.; Ribeiro, Bruno V.; Jacobs, Joachim; Wang, Cheng-Cheng; Thomas, Robert J.; Macey, Paul H.; Kirkland, Christopher L.; Hartnady, Michael I.H.; Eglington, Bruce M.; Puetz, Stephen J.; Condie, Kent C. (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 ... -
Grenville-age continental arc magmatism and crustal evolution in central Dronning Maud Land (East Antarctica): Zircon geochronological and Hf-O isotopic evidence
Wang, Cheng-Cheng; Jacobs, Joachim; Elburg, Marlina A.; Läufer, Andreas; Thomas, Robert J.; Elvevold, Synnøve (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)This study focusses on the Grenville-age Maud Belt in Dronning Maud Land (DML), East Antarctica, which was located at the margin of the Proto-Kalahari Craton during the assembly of Rodinia. We present new U–Pb zircon ages ... -
Late Neoproterozoic–Cambrian magmatism in Dronning Maud Land (East Antarctica): U–Pb zircon geochronology, isotope geochemistry and implications for Gondwana assembly
Wang, Cheng-Cheng; Jacobs, Joachim; Elburg, Marlina; Läufer, Andreas; Elvevold, Synnøve (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 ... -
Nature and geodynamics of Grenville-age orogens in Norway and Dronning Maud Land (East Antarctica) during the assembly of Rodinia: insights into the lateral terminations of the greater Grenville Orogen
Wang, Cheng-Cheng (Doctoral thesis, 2021-09-14)The Grenville Orogeny represents a globally pervasive tectonothermal event resulting in the amalgamation of the supercontinent Rodinia between ca. 1.3 and 1.0 Ga. The Grenville Orogen appears to be a continuous collisional ... -
Tracing the Sveconorwegian orogen into the Caledonides of West Norway: Geochronological and isotopic studies on magmatism and migmatization
Wang, Cheng-Cheng; Wiest, Johannes; Jacobs, Joachim; Bingen, Bernard; Whitehouse, Martin J.; Elburg, Marlina; Sørstrand, Thea Sætren; Mikkelsen, Lise; Hestnes, Åse (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 ...
