Source area reconstruction using heavy mineral, mineral chemical, geochronological and palaeocurrent data: Carboniferous sandstones of the Scottish midland valley

Andrew Morton, J. I. Chisholm, Dirk Frei

Integration of several data sets (heavy mineral analysis, rutile and apatite trace element geochemistry, zircon, rutile and apatite geochronology, and palaeocurrent measurements), in conjunction with published sedimentological and petrographic data, has enabled a reconstruction of source areas supplying Late Devonian and Carboniferous …

A Sediment Provenance Study of Middle Jurassic to Cretaceous Strata in the Eastern Sverdrup Basin: Implications for the Exhumation of the Northeastern Canadian-Greenlandic Shield

Michael A. Pointon, Helen R. Smyth, Jenny E. Omma, Andrew Morton et autres

The Sverdrup Basin, Arctic Canada, is ideally situated to contain an archive of tectono-magmatic and climatic events that occurred within the wider Arctic region, including the exhumation of the adjacent (northeastern) part of the Canadian-Greenlandic Shield. To test this, a multi-analytical provenance …

Neoproterozoic–early Paleozoic tectonic evolution of Oman revisited: implications for the consolidation of Gondwana

Irene Gómez-Pérez, Andrew Morton

The implications of a new tectonic evolution model that puts Oman at the eastern margin of the Mozambique Ocean during the Neoproterozoic are wide and regionally significant. This model helps understand the Neoproterozoic tectonics and palaeogeography of Gondwana, the closure of the …

Evolution of the Carpathian Foreland Basin and its link with collision and slab detachment

Arjan de Leeuw, Anton Matoshko, Marion Roger, Stephen Vincent et autres

The Carpathians are a typical Mediterranean-type orogen that resulted from slab roll-back, nappe accretion, collision and slab detachment. We will use basin-scale sedimentological and provenance analysis to reconstruct the Miocene to recent evolution of the Carpathian Foreland Basin. Paleontological observations will highlight …

Heavy Mineral and Zircon Age Constraints on Provenance of Cenozoic Sandstones in the Gulf of Mexico Subsurface

Andrew Morton, Michael E. Strickler, Christopher Mark Fanning

Combined heavy mineral analysis and detrital zircon geochronology have enabled us to track detritus supplied by the ancestral river systems draining the North American continent into the deep subsurface of the Gulf of Mexico, in both the coastal plain and the offshore …

Provenance response to evolving palaeogeography recorded by Carboniferous sandstones in the northern Pennine Basin, UK

Andrew Morton, J. I. Chisholm, Dirk Frei

On the basis of a combination of heavy mineral data, provenance-sensitive heavy mineral indices, garnet major element chemistry, rutile trace element chemistry and zircon UPb geochronology, six major changes in sandstone provenance during Carboniferous deposition in the northern Pennine Basin, UK, have …

Oman as a fragment of Ediacaran eastern Gondwana

Irene Gómez-Pérez, Andrew Morton, Hussam Al Rawahi, Dirk Frei

Abstract Comprehensive U-Pb detrital zircon geochronology of Ediacaran sandstones from Oman indicates that they originated from Neoproterozoic basement with a peak magmatic age of ca. 850–780 Ma (Tonian), with lesser Paleoproterozoic and Ediacaran sources and renewed magmatic input starting at ca. 550 …

The provenance of a turbidite system within a tectonically active wrench basin: Insights from heavy mineral characteristics of Miocene sandstones in the Tabernas Basin, south‐east Spain

Paula McGill, Alex W. Milne, Andrew Morton, G K Williams

Abstract This paper provides insight into the provenance of the Late Miocene turbidite succession of the Tabernas Basin. Although this area has been extensively studied, only limited attention has been paid to sediment provenance. Through heavy mineral analysis, it has been possible …

The Neoproterozoic Valdres Group - depositional conditions and stratigraphical developments in the Mellane and Grønsennknippa sections, Valdres, Southern Norway

Henning Dypvik, Even Stokkebekk, Eirik N. Nordeng, Rikke Ø. Småkasin et autres

The youngest part of the Valdres Group of south-central Norway (mainly the Neoproterozoic Rundemellen unit, Tonian – Cryogenian?) has been sedimentologically and stratigraphically studied and sampled at the Skarvemellen and Rundemellen sections at Mellane (Øystre Slidre) and Grønsennknippa (Vestre Slidre). The goal …

The Importance of Eurekan Mountains on Cenozoic Sediment Routing on the Western Barents Shelf

Michael J. Flowerdew, Edward J. Fleming, David Chew, Andrew Morton et autres

The importance of topography generated by Eocene Eurekan deformation as a sediment source for sandstones deposited on the western Barents Shelf margin is evaluated through a sediment provenance study conducted on wellbore materials retrieved from Spitsbergen and from the Vestbakken Volcanic Province …
