Intraplate magmatic provinces found away from plate boundaries provide direct sampling of
the composition and heterogeneity of the Earth's mantle. The chemical heterogeneities that …

The deformation of the middle to lower crust in collisional settings occurs via deformation
mechanisms that vary with rock composition, fluid content, pressure, and temperature. These …

Necking zones, located between the proximal and distal domains of passive margins, are
characterized by important crustal thinning and the occurrence of extensional detachment …

The Laramide foreland belt comprises a broad region of thick-skinned, contractional
deformation characterized by an anastomosing network of basement-cored arches and …

This study investigates gneissic tectonites of different mechanical origins, and aims at
unravelling the link between microstructures, white mica chemistry and K-Ar data. The …

The Alpine orogenic edifice of Corsica (northern Tyrrhenian Sea) offers the possibility to
investigate the mode through which continental crust responds to the propagation of …

A microstructural and thermochronometric analysis of the Coyote Mountains detachment
shear zone provides new insight into the collapse of the southern North American Cordillera …

How the deformation of amphiboles and their involvement in metamorphic reactions during
shearing affect the rheology of the middle crust remains controversial. Middle crustal fault …

Reactions in the Earth's crust occur through a dissolution‐precipitation process in the
presence of fluid. Dissolution releases aqueous species which are transported to the locus …

U-Pb zircon geochronology by sensitive high-resolution ion microprobe–reverse geometry
(SHRIMP-RG) on 11 plutonic rocks and two volcanic rocks from the Bronson Hill arc in …
