Palynological insights into the Mid Jurassic dinoflagellate radiation
… this record indicates that the Bajocian of the Mid Jurassic (~170–168 Ma) represents a critical interval in dinoflagellate evolutionary history, marked by a rapid increase in the diversity of cysts from the family Gonyaulacaceae. From the Bajocian onwards, the Gonyaulacaceae have remained one of …

The evolution and palaeobiogeography of mesozoic planktonic foraminifera
… in the subsequent forty years our knowledge of Jurassic planktonic foraminifera has expanded considerably. A thorough re-evaluation of the Oberhauser and Fuchs collections in Vienna has shown that these species are probably not planktonic and that the first planktonic taxa appeared in the …

Mantle melting processes: evidences from ophiolites, large igneous provinces, and intraplate seamounts
… studied melting at extensional environments, in mid-ocean ridges and back-arc basins, preserved in ophiolites. The Santa Elena Ophiolite in Costa Rica comprises a well-preserved fragment of the lithospheric mantle that formed along a paleo-spreading center. Petrological models of fractional …

Evolution of tectonic and stratigraphic geometries in the Southern Outeniqua Basin
… during the Mesozoic break-up of Gondwana. Early Jurassic (170-150Ma) rifting between West and East Gondwana is proposed to have created weaknesses in the crust along the Southern African margin in a NNE-SSW orientation leading to the development of small rift basins and the deposition of syn-rift …

Buffalo Canyon: An Oligocene Greisen-Like Intrusion-Related Gold Deposit in the Union Mining District, Nye County, Nevada
… in Nevada. One occurrence in Nevada is the Jurassic Bald Mountain deposit in eastern Nevada; however, for most Nevada occurrences there has been insufficient work that establishes a genetic connection to intrusions or determines their age. Buffalo Canyon is a gold prospect located near the …
