Juxtaposition of different-grade metamorphic slices is a typical feature Phanerozoic orogens but relatively scarce in Precambrian orogens. Here, we focus on the Chengde Complex at northern segment late Paleoproterozoic Trans-North China Orogen, North Craton as case, to explore how orogeny-related metamorphism was juxtaposed The Orogen collisional orogen and records abundant information about or...

Stream sediment sampling is a significant tool in geochemical exploration. The stream composition reflects the bedrock geology, overburden cover, and metalliferous mineralization. This research article focuses on assessing selected trace element concentrations sediments interpreting their inter-element relationships using multivariate statistical methods. Tagadur Ranganathaswamy Gudda its surro...

Over the last decades, rocks from East Pisco Basin (EPB), on Central Peruvian coast (13°-16°S), have yielded an abundant and diverse collection of coastal-marine fossils, which are key for characterizing onset evolution modern Humboldt Current. Despite its paleontological richness, after almost 40 years study, spatio-temporal context deposits southern part EPB (Sacaco area) remains only broadly...

Noninvasive geoelectrical subsurface characterisation provides screening of the earth medium to resolve complexity in geology caused by inhomogeneity overburden strata and bedrock architectures. The geological, hydrogeophysical engineering conditions Etioro-Akoko, southwestern Nigeria, were investigated using electrical resistivity tomography (ERT). This was aimed at unravelling hydrogeodynamic...

The present study provides valuable new information on the evolution of Sydney estuary by tracing development complete marine–estuarine–fluvial system through a full glacial cycle (Last Interglacial, LIG, to Interglacial). Extensive seismic (361.3-line km) and sedimentological studies provided sound foundation for production detailed litho- seismic-stratigraphic record estuary. In absence relia...
