STRUCTURAL, THERMOCHRONOLOGICAL, AND STRATIGRAPHIC CONSTRAINTS ON THE EVOLUTION OF THE CLEARWATER METAMORPHIC CORE COMPLEX, IDAHO
<p>The Clearwater metamorphic core complex (CMCC) in northern Idaho is one of several core complexes in the northern Rocky Mountains that were exhumed in the early Eocene and is located in the middle of the dextral Lewis and Clark fault zone (LCFZ). The CMCC has been divided into two lithologically …

Mineral Ridge: A Late Cretaceous Orogenic Gold System in the Miocene Silver Peak-Lone Mountain Metamorphic Core Complex
Gold deposits in rocks of the Silver Peak metamorphic core complex in west-central Nevada are contained in highly deformed, sheeted milky quartz veins that cut Neoproterozoic metasedimentary rocks and Cretaceous peraluminous granite and migmatite. Gold production at Mineral Ridge since discovery in …

The Role of Magmatism in the Catalina Metamorphic Core Complex, Arizona: Insights from Integrated Thermochronology, Gravity and Aeromagnetic Data
<p>The footwall of the Catalina MCC located within the Basin and Range Province has been intruded by several magmatic suites. Samples were collected from the Wilderness suite sills, the most voluminous suite. U/Pb data from zircon indicate that the Wilderness suite sills were emplaced during two …
