An alternate perspective on the opening and closing of the intracratonic Purana basins in peninsular India
A Basu, ME Bickford - Journal of the Geological Society of India, 2015 - Springer
Purana basins in India are Proterozoic in age, filled with mostly marine, deltaic, and fluvial
sediments, with some alluvial fan deposits in the basin margins. The basin fill is largely …

Is the Proterozoic Ladoga rift (SE baltic shield) a rift?
IM Artemieva, A Shulgin - Precambrian Research, 2015 - Elsevier
The southern part of the Baltic Shield hosts a series of mafic dykes and sills of
Mesoproterozoic ages, including a ca. 1.53–1.46 Ga sheet-like gabbro-dolerite sills and the …

Post-orogenic thermal evolution of newborn Archean continents
C Jaupart, JC Mareschal - Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2015 - Elsevier
The post-orogenic thermal evolution of newborn cratons in the Archean is marked by high-
temperature metamorphism and plutonic activity that lag accretion by several tens of million …
