This Chapter considers triple oxygen isotope variations and their 4 Gyr temporal evolution in
bulk siliciclastic sedimentary rocks and in granites. The d18O and∆′ 17O values provide …

The southern part of the West African Craton includes the Baoulé-Mossi Domain, the world's
premier Paleoproterozoic gold province (~ 10,000 metric ton gold endowment). Structural …

Contrary to what is currently known, archetypal zircon samples from gneisses and intrusive
leucogranites in the Palaeoproterozoic Suhum Basin, SE Ghana, suggest the involvement of …

Crustal evolution in the south West African Craton is dominated by a significant input of
juvenile material into the crust at ca. 2.1 Ga and it remains unclear how much of the …

Shear zones of the Paleoproterozoic Eburnean accretionary Orogen (West African craton)
are investigated by means of large-scale structural mapping. Regional scale (10-100 km) …

The volcano-metasedimentary Bui belt in Ghana is one of the lesser known Birimian belts of
the West African Craton that provide constraints on Paleoproterozoic crustal growth. This …

Paleoproterozoic igneous suites across the West African Craton have previously been
classified as Tonalite-Trondhjemite-Granodiorite (TTG)-like, and in many cases this …

主要赋存于新太古代, 古元古代地盾中, 与变质火山沉积岩系有关, 尤其是绿岩带; …

We report new detrital zircon U–Pb ages and Hf isotopic signatures of detrital zircons in
Cambrian sedimentary rocks from the Ougarta Mountains of Algeria in the West African …

This study presents petrography, geochemistry, geochronology, and Lu-Hf isotope
compositions of Paleoproterozoic orthogneisses from the Dahomeyide Belt, southeastern …
