ABSTRACT: From a harmonized structural map at the scale of a portion of SW Burkina Faso (90 × 80 km2), we targeted prospective zones on the basis of structural criteria and structure-geology ...

Both today’s Earth and the Moon are thought to have formed from the debris created by that impact. The early lunar surface existed in a molten state, forming what’s referred to as the lunar ...

ABSTRACT: This paper aims to show the relationships between hydrothermal alteration, deformation and gold mineralization in the main area of the Kiaka deposit. The Kiaka gold deposit is located in the ...

Yuqi Qian, Professor Joseph Michalski, and Professor Guochun Zhao from the Department of Earth Sciences at The University of Hong Kong (HKU) and their domestic and international collaborators have ...

A team of scientists has observed past episodic intraplate magmatism and corroborated the ... Samer Naif made an unexpected discovery in Earth's mantle: a narrow pocket, proposed to be filled ...

Their history of sedimentation, magmatism, deformation ... Both stagnant and sluggish-lid modes are argued to have operated early in Earth’s history and a plausible succession of tectonics ...

Furthermore, the North China Block and South China Block amalgamated and subduction of the Paleo-Pacific plate beneath eastern Eurasia initiated periods of variably intense arc magmatism until the ...

Orange and red domains (in a and b, respectively) highlight regions of active deformation and strain localization in the Early Cretaceous ... how the distribution of magmatism and fluids govern ...

In order to investigate how the Earth's mantle developed in the early Earth period, the short-lived 182Hafnium-182Tungsten isotope system has been in the focus before: 182Tungsten indicates ...

From the early Earth to the modern plate-tectonic Earth, the amount of magmatism has varied, but it has always occurred on multiple scales, in various tectonic environments and at various depths ...
