Mesoproterozoic Basement From The Central And Southern Appalachians Reveal High-temperature Magmatic Conditions And Non-laurentian Origin Of Earth’s Most Zircon Fertile Magmas
<p>The Mesoproterozoic (1.4-0.9 Ga) Grenville Orogeny led to the formation of the supercontinent Rodinia. One unique characteristic of the Grenville Orogeny is that it produced a volumetrically significant amount of zirconium- (Zr) enriched granitoids, evidently more than any period both prior to …

Evaluating the Usefulness of Geochronometers in the Packsaddle Domain for Refining the Timing of Metamorphism Via High-Resolution Petrography, Enchanted Rock State Natural Area, Llano Uplift, Texas
… recognized metamorphic events related to the Grenville orogeny (~1.3-0.9 Ga). The timing of these metamorphic events is not well resolved due to past methods, technology, and lack of published geologic context for many of the current dates. These current time constraints on metamorphic timing …

DETRITAL-ZIRCON GEOCHRONOLOGIC PROVENANCE ANALYSES THAT TEST AND EXPAND THE EAST SIBERIA - WEST LAURENTIA RODINIA RECONSTRUCTION
… of the crust during the southern Laurentian Grenville orogeny, crustal flexure resulting in a foreland basin, and extension sub-perpendicular to the Grenville front resulting in extensional basins within the foreland basin on both cratons. Sediments were transported from the Grenville Orogen …

The New York-Alabama Magnetic Lineament: its reflection character and relationship to the Grenville front
… reprocessed seismic reflection data, and the Grenville Front Tectonic Zone (GFTZ) is imaged beneath it in eastern Tennessee. Industry data, correlated to lower crustal depths, image a wedge-shaped block beneath the shelf strata of the Cumberland Plateau and Valley and Ridge provinces of …
