Published in 2020 at "Arabian Journal of Geosciences"

DOI: 10.1007/s12517-020-05785-x

Abstract: The Neoproterozoic charnockite–granite association of Okpella intrudes metasedimentary and migmatite-gneiss complex rocks in the eastern Igarra Schist Belt, southwestern Nigeria. In order to unravel the complex processes involved in the formation and tectonic evolution of… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Gondwana Research"

DOI: 10.1016/j.gr.2015.07.013

Abstract: The origin of the Greater Himalayan Sequence in the Himalaya and the paleogeographic position of the Lhasa terrane within Gondwanaland remain controversial. In the Eastern Himalayan syntaxis, the basement complexes of the northeastern Indian plate… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Geodinamica Acta"

DOI: 10.1080/09853111.2019.1670414

Abstract: ABSTRACT The Wa-Lawra Belt which is situated in the northern part of Ghana consists of Paleoproterozoic Birimian fine metasedimentary rocks metamorphosed to greenschist facies, particularly, in the western part. A whole-rock geochemical study of these… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Lithosphere"

DOI: 10.2113/2020/8854686

Abstract: Most metasedimentary rocks in the southern Coast Mountains batholith are of uncertain tectonic affinity because they occur in discontinuous pendants surrounded by large intrusive bodies, and many protolith features are obscured by regional deformation and… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Andean Geology"

DOI: 10.5027/andgeov48n1-3282

Abstract: Previously undated low-grade metamorphic rocks from the Puerto Cisnes-Queulat area (44°30’ S) contain detrital zircons of mid-Oligocene age (ca. 28 Ma). Their outcrops represent the easternmost occurrence of the late Oligocene to early Miocene marine… read more here.
