The St. Cyr area near Quiet Lake hosts well preserved to variably retrogressed eclogite found as sub-metre to hundreds of metre-long lenses within quartzofeldspathic schist in south-central Yukon, Canada. The St. Cyr klippe consists of structurally imbricated, polydeformed and polymetamorphosed units of continental arc crust and ultramafic–mafic rocks. Eclogite-bearing quartzofeldspathic schist forms thrust slices in a 30 km long by 6 km wide, northwest-striking outcrop belt. The schist unit comprises metasedimentary and felsic intrusive rocks that are intercalated on the metre to tens of metres scale. Ultramafic rocks, serpentinite and associated greenschist-facies metagabbro form imbricated tectonic slices within the eclogite-bearing quartzofeldspathic unit, which led to a previously held hypothesis that eclogite was exhumed within a tectonic mélange. The presence of phengite and Permian zircon crystallized under eclogite-facies metamorphic conditions in the quartzofeldspathic host rocks indicate that the eclogite was metamorphosed in situ together with the schist as a coherent unit that was part of the continental arc crust of the Yukon–Tanana terrane, rather than a mélange associated with the subduction of oceanic crust of the Slide Mountain terrane. Petrological, geochemical, geochronological and structural similarities link St. Cyr eclogite to other high-pressure localities within Yukon, indicating the high-pressure assemblages form a larger lithotectonic unit within the Yukon–Tanana terrane.RÉSUMÉLa région de St-Cyr renferme des éclogites bien conservées à légèrement rétrogradées qui se présentent sous forme de lentilles allant de la fraction de mètre à quelques centaines de mètres de longueur, au sein d’un schiste quartzofeldspathique du centre-sud du Yukon au Canada. La klippe de St-Cyr est structurellement constituée d’unités imbriquées, polydéformées et polymétamorphisées de croûte d’arc continental et de roches ultramafiques à mafiques. Les schistes quartzofeldspathiques à lentilles d’éclogites forment des écailles de chevauchement d’une bande de 30 km de longueur par 6 km de largeur de direction nord-ouest. Les schistes sont constitués de roches métasédimentaires et de roches intrusives felsiques intercalées à des intervalles qui vont du mètre à quelques dizaines de mètres. Les roches ultramafiques, serpentinites et métagabbros au facies à schiste vert forment des écailles tectoniques imbriquées au sein de l’unité quartzofeldspathique à lentilles d’éclogite, d’où une précédente hypothèse voulant que les éclogites soient un produit d’exhumation à partir d’un mélange tectonique. La présence de phengite et de zircon permien cristallisé sous conditions métamorphiques du faciès à éclogite au sein de la roche hôte quartzofeldspathique indiquent que l’éclogite a été métamorphisée en place, avec le schiste comme unité cohérente du terrane de croûte d’arc continental de Yukon–Tanana, plutôt qu’un mélange associé à une subduction de croûte océanique du terrane de Slide Mountain. Des similarités pétrologiques, géochimiques, géochronologiques et structurales lient les éclogites de St-Cyr à d’autres lieux de hautes pressions au Yukon, ce qui indique que les assemblages de hautes pressions forment une unité lithotectonique plus grande au sein du terrane de Yukon–Tanana.

The Spa Creek assemblage is a distinctive thin pericratonic succession that crosses the Okanagan Valley in the hinterland of the southern Cordilleran Orogen in Canada. The succession was ductilely deformed and metamorphosed before deposition of overlying Triassic dark metaclastic strata. A metaconglomerate within the succession, locally composed of more than 90% biotite granite clasts, yielded five fractions of euhedral zircon that define a precise UPb upper intercept of 555.6 ± 2.5 Ma, inferred to be the age of a nearby pluton. Other clasts in the metaconglomerate are generally more abundant, consisting of quartzite, amphibole schist, chlorite schist, sericite schist, biotite schist, and quartzfeldspar porphyry. They are likely host rocks of the pluton and, if so, are Late Proterozoic or older. The granite is interpreted as a terminal product of the Eocambrian rifting that preceded Paleozoic miogeoclinal sedimentation farther inboard. The continuity of pericratonic rocks west of the miogeocline and the occurrence of Proterozoic cratonic rocks at the surface west of the Okanagan Valley show that the ancient continental margin extends into a region where most of the crustal lithosphere was until now thought to consist of accreted Phanerozoic arc and accretionary complexes.

Two soil profiles developed from mafic saprolites were examined at Economy Mountain, Nova Scotia and Kamloops, British Colombia. The underlying rocks, a tholeiitic basalt in Nova Scotia and a basic greenstone schist at Kamloops, were apparently transformed to predominantly smectitic saprolites in pre-Holocene times. During the Wisconsinan glacial stage the sola and a significant portion of the saprolites were removed. Holocene pedogenesis has produced new sola on the saprolites. In Nova Scotia, the solum may have some locally derived till or colluvium component. Key words: Mafic pedogenesis, Paleosols, soil mineralogy

The fossil record of gladius-bearing coleoids is scarce and based only on a few localities with geological horizons particularly favourable to their preservation (the so-called Konservat-Lagerstätten), which naturally leads to strongly limited data on geographical distributions. This emphasizes the importance of every new locality providing gladius-bearing coleoids. Here, we assess for the first time the gladius-bearing coleoid taxonomic diversity within the lower Toarcian “Schistes Cartons” of the Causses Basin (southeastern France). The material includes two fragmentary gladii, identified as Paraplesioteuthis sagittata and ?Loligosepia sp. indet. Just with these two specimens, two (Prototeuthina and Loligosepiina) of the three (Prototeuthina, Loligosepiina and Teudopseina) suborders of Mesozoic gladius-bearing coleoids are represented. Thus, our results hint at a rich early Toarcian gladius-bearing coleoid diversity in the Causses Basin and point out the need for further field investigations in the lower Toarcian “Schistes Cartons” in this area. This new record of Paraplesioteuthis sagittata is only the second one in Europe and the third in the world (western Canada, Germany and now France). Based on these occurrences, we tentatively suggest that P. sagittata originated in the Mediterranean domain and moved to the Arctic realm through the Viking Corridor to eventually move even farther to North America.

AbstractOriented inclusions of monazite occur in the dark core of apatite porphyroblasts in a muscovite schist from the Archaean Hemlo gold deposit, Ontario, Canada. The monazite inclusions are elongated along the b-axis and parallel to the c-axis of the apatite host; the complete orientation relationship of the monazite/apatite intergrowth is bMnz//cAp, cMnz//aAp. From analysis by SIMS and EMP, the dark core of the apatite porphyroblasts is depleted in LREE (LaN/YbN = 0.56). The monazite inclusions are correspondingly enriched in LREE, but markedly depleted in HREE, compared with monazite grains in the rock matrix and cross-cutting veins. The monazite inclusions precipitated by oriented reaction through rock-fluid interactions during a late hydrothermal alteration. Their unusual REE composition is probably related to both a preferential leaching of LREE from the dark core and a selective transfer of HREE out of the apatite porphyroblasts.

Alternating greenstone–granite and metasedimentary gneiss belts are a first-order tectonic feature of the southern Superior Province. The tectonic development of the Quetico metasedimentary belt is reviewed with regard to depositional, structural, and metamorphic–plutonic history. Over its 1200 km length, the belt consists of marginal metasedimentary schists of turbiditic origin and interior metasedimentary migmatite and peraluminous leucogranite. Polyphase deformation has resulted in a steep easterly-striking foliation and regional, gently east-plunging stretching lineation. Metamorphic grade varies in a low-P facies series from greenschist at the belt margins to upper amphibolite and local granulite in the central migmatite – intrusive granite zone. Mineral assemblages in the central zone yield estimates of metamorphic pressure that increase systematically eastward over 800 km from about 250 MPa (2.5 kbar) near the Canada – United States border to 600 MPa (6 kbar) in granulites adjacent to the Kapuskasing structural zone.Geochronology suggests that sediments were deposited at approximately the same time as active volcanism in adjacent volcanic belts, although evidence of volcanic–sedimentary stratigraphic contiguity is weak as a result of later transcurrent movement parallel to major lithological boundaries. Adjacent belts are inferred to have been contiguous since common D2 deformation, 2689–2684 Ma ago. Major plutonism and associated metamorphism occurred in the Quetico Belt approximately 2670–2650 Ma ago, significantly later than major plutonism in the adjacent volcanic belts.The linear disposition of greywacke-rich sediments over 1200 km invites an analogy with modern accretionary prisms. However, the high-temperature, low-pressure metamorphism of the Quetico Belt is inconsistent with such a low-heat-flow environment, and a change in tectonic regime would be required to account for the metamorphism and intracrustal plutonism. Simple cessation of subduction beneath the thick sedimentary prism could have led to restoration of isotherms, with possible attendant crustal melting and isostatic recovery.

The Dumagami Au–Ag–Cu deposits are hosted by strongly deformed and altered Archean felsic metavolcanites of the Blake River Group (BRG), southern Abitibi greenstone belt, Canada. Textural and structural features recorded within the lithologies of the BRG at Dumagami indicate that two stages of hydrothermal alteration, separated by a dynamometamorphic event, have affected the volcanic protoliths in the deposit area. Advanced argillic and sericitic alteration zones, massive pyrite bodies, and massive sphalerite–galena bodies resulted from the first stage of hydrothermal activity. Sericitic shells surround peraluminous cores, which host the massive pyrite bodies and massive sphalerite–galena bodies within the altered zones.This early-stage alteration was followed by a dynamometamorphic event that reached the greenschist–amphibolite grade and almost completely recrystallized both fresh and altered rocks and the enclosed massive sulphide bodies. White-mica schists and andalusite–kyanite schists represent the dynamometamorphic equivalents of the earlier sericitic and advanced argillic zones. Mesoscopic and microscopic structures and textures attest to the ductile behaviour of the massive pyrite bodies during this deformation and accompanying metamorphism.Portions of the deformed and metamorphosed altered zones are characterized by a late cataclastic deformation and by the development of fractures postdating the ductile deformation. The late hydrothermal alteration is concentrated within these cataclastic rocks and is characterized by the retrogression of the greenschist–amphibolite assemblages. Andalusite and kyanite are replaced by diaspore, kaolinite, and pyrophyllite assemblages, and pyrite is replaced by chalcopyrite–gold, chalcopyrite–bornite–gold, and bornite–stromeyerite assemblages. The concentration of the pre-dynamometamorphic alteration and sulphide mineralization within a narrow band along the southern BRG could indicate that this part of the BRG was the locus of a major Archean synvolcanic fault zone.

The hitherto pegmatite of the Egbe area has been known to bear valuable economic minerals. They are associated with other rock types including banded gneiss, schist, amphibolite, and granites. These pegmatites and the host rocks were studied in detail to elucidate their petrochemical and geochemical features and also to assess the mineralization of Tantalum- iobium and other minerals. Geological field mapping was done, thin section-petrographic analysis of ten representative rock samples was performed and nineteen whole-rock samples were analyzed for major and trace elements including REES aided by Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS), Boron- Fusion-Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectrometry (ICP-AES), and Ion-Selective Electrode (ISE) for Fluorine at Acme Laboratory, Vancouver, Canada. The general structural trend of the area under study is WNW-ESE and foliations of N-S strike were observed in the banded gneiss and schist which also exhibit asymmetric and isoclinals folding respectively. The tantalite-columbite mineralization is associated with the NE-SW trending pegmatite dykes. The mineralized pegmatites are genetically related to the peraluminous S-type granite. The minerals (i.e., Albite, lepidolite and muscovite) extracted from the pegmatites are well enriched in Li, Rb, Cs, Nb and Ta compared to the host rocks. The rare-metal pegmatites exhibit pronounced negative Ce and Eu anomalies and also show weak negative Yb anomalies while the barren pegmatites have positive Ce and weak negative Eu anomalies and exhibit weak positive Yb anomalies. The pegmatites are moderately evolved compared with other highly mineralized pegmatites. The pegmatites from Igbaruku and one from the Okere area are of the rare-metal pegmatite and they are moderately fractionated while the barren pegmatite from Egbe and one from Okere are unfractionated. The economic mineral within the Egbe area is tantalite, with every possibility that the tantalite-columbite enrichment is ferrotantalite-columbite and manganotantalite columbite.

We have acquired borehole gravity data along five drillholes intersecting the Lalor volcanogenic massive sulfide deposit hosted in the eastern Flin Flon greenstone belt at Snow Lake, Manitoba, Canada. Inverted apparent interval density (IAID) logs were calculated from the borehole gravity data and compared with lithofacies and [Formula: see text] logs; the latter of which is a geochemical proxy for differentiating volcanic rocks of felsic to mafic composition. The IAID anomalies predominantly reflect alternating mafic and felsic volcanic rock units in the footwall and hanging wall of the massive sulfide deposit. IAID lows are associated with [Formula: see text] highs that correspond to rhyolite and rhyodacite intervals in the hanging wall. IAID lows with associated [Formula: see text] peaks in the footwall occur within intervals of gneiss and schist formed by metamorphism of hydrothermally altered rocks, suggesting that these IAID lows still reflect the felsic composition of their volcanic protoliths. A significant peak-to-peak Bouguer anomaly of 0.66 mGal caused by an estimated excess mass of 0.7 mT can be correlated with gamma-gamma density signature of the main sulfide ore zone in three boreholes. This anomaly is aligned with the ore zone after restoring the displacement along a northeast-dipping structure. When integrated with drillhole lithology and lithogeochemistry logs, gravity borehole data can, in addition to the direct detection of mineralization, be used as a subsurface geological mapping tool.

We present major- and trace- element geochemical data for 27 amphibolites and six greenstones from three structural packages in the Yukon-Tanana Upland of east-central Alaska: the Lake George assemblage (LG) of Devono-Mississippian augen gneiss, quartz-mica schist, quartzite, and amphibolite; the Taylor Mountain assemblage (TM) of mafic schist and gneiss, marble, quartzite, and metachert; and the Seventymile terrane of greenstone, serpentinized peridotite, and Mississippian to Late Triassic metasedimentary rocks. Most LG amphibolites have relatively high Nb, TiO2, Zr, and light rare earth element contents, indicative of an alkalic to tholeiitic, within-plate basalt origin. The within-plate affinities of the LG amphibolites suggest that their basaltic parent magmas developed in an extensional setting and support a correlation of these metamorphosed continental-margin rocks with less metamorphosed counterparts across the Tintina fault in the Selwyn Basin of the Canadian Cordillera. TM amphibolites have a tholeiitic or calc-alkalic composition, low normalized abundances of Nb and Ta relative to Th and La, and Ti/V values of <20, all indicative of a volcanic-arc origin. Limited results from Seventymile greenstones indicate a tholeiitic or calc-alkalic composition and intermediate to high Ti/V values (27-48), consistent with either a within-plate or an ocean-floor basalt origin. Y-La-Nb proportions in both TM and Seventymile metabasalts indicate the proximity of the arc and marginal basin to continental crust. The arc geochemistry of TM amphibolites is consistent with a model in which the TM assemblage includes arc rocks generated above a west-dipping subduction zone outboard of the North American continental margin in mid-Paleozoic through Triassic time. The ocean-floor or within-plate basalt geochemistry of the Seventymile greenstones supports the correlation of the Seventymile terrane with the Slide Mountain terrane in Canada and the hypothesis that these oceanic rocks originated in a basin between the continental margin and an arc to the west.

U-Pb zircon ages have been compiled for magmatic and sedimentary rocks from the low metamorphic grade portion of the Flin Flon greenstone belt, now recognized as a Paleoproterozoic tectonic collage. The "Amisk collage" formed in two major magmatic periods that were separated by an interval of intraoceanic accretionary tectonics. Pre-accretionary volcanic and plutonic rocks of arc and ocean-floor tectonic affinities have crystallization ages of 1.906-1.901 and 1.888-1.881 Ga; the earlier period was dominated by juvenile tholeiitic arc basalts and related back-arc-basin basalts, and the younger period by juvenile calc-alkaline volcanic rocks and turbidites. Intraoceanic accretion of the diverse tectono-stratigraphic assemblages may have commenced between 1.90 and 1.89 Ga, but the main period was 1.88-1.87 Ga. The post-accretionary period (1.876-1.838 Ga) was characterized by intrusion of juvenile calk-alkaline plutons generated by a successor arc that stitched the diverse pre-accretionary assemblages. Marine to subaerial volcaniclastic and epiclastic units were deposited in successor basins <=1.87 Ga (Schist-Wekusko suite), succeeded by alluvial-fluvial (Missi Group) to marine (Burntwood Group) sediments after 1.85 Ga. Despite the dominance of juvenile magmatic rocks within the collage, U-Pb zircon age and Nd-isotopic data show that older (>2.2-3.0 Ga) basement fragments were present throughout the development of the Amisk collage. An arc-back-arc system close to an Archean craton is proposed as the most likely tectonic setting during formation and accretion of the Amisk collage from 1.90 to 1.84 Ga. Subsequent continental collision during peak orogeny (1.84-1.81 Ga) is interpreted to have delaminated the lower crust and upper mantle of the collage, preferentially preserving crust of intermediate bulk composition.

Aiming to determine if there is genetic differentiation among Pinus patula Schiede et Chamizo populations along an altitudinal gradient and for quantifying the genotype x environment interaction, 13 Pinus patula populations were sampled from forests of the Native Indian Community of Ixtlán de Juárez, Oaxaca, state of México, along an altitudinal gradient (2400 m to 3000 m), cones being collected on groups of trees on every 50 m of altitudinal step). Seedlings were grown in tree pots in two different environments: a shadehouse located at Ixtlán de Juárez, and in a greenhouse and then in a shadehouse situated at Quebec, Canada. Total seedling height was measured at 6-months of age in both locations. Results indicated that populations differed significantly (P = 0.025), but there was no significant genotype x environment interaction (P = 0.426; B type genetic correlation = 0.93). Population from 2650 m (middle altitude) exhibited the best height. Although not definitive, our study suggests the presence of a weak altitudinal pattern of variation in seedling height, where populations originating of mid-altitudes exhibit the highest growth potential while populations from the upper and lower altitudinal extremes exhibit the lowest growth potential.

The Coast Belt of the northern Cordillera in Canada is the locus of the boundary between accreted and ancient North American margin rocks. The largest exposure of metasedimentary rocks in the Coast Belt is the Kluane metamorphic assemblage (KMA), a northwest-striking belt 160 km long of graphitic micaquartz schist and gneiss with minor interfoliated olivine serpentinite. The KMA does not appear to correlate with other sedimentary or metamorphic rock assemblages in the Canadian Cordillera. To determine its tectonic setting and protolith provenance, we analyzed trace element, rare earth elements, and neodymium isotope compositions of the KMA, of the adjacent pericratonic Aishihik metamorphic suite (AMS) of the YukonTanana terrane, and of adjacent slates of the Dezadeash Formation (DF), filling a Late Jurassic Early Cretaceous flysch basin. The εNd(0) values of analyzed KMA samples range from 1.4 to 5.6 and depleted mantle model ages (TDM) range from 1.16 to 1.45 Ga. KMA samples are intermediate between more evolved AMS samples (average εNd(0) 25, TDM = 2.6 Ga) and more juvenile DF samples (εNd(0) = +1.9, TDM = 0.95 Ga). The intermediate characteristics of the KMA samples cannot be linked to a known source region and are interpreted to reflect homogeneous mixing from predominantly juvenile and minor evolved sedimentary sources. A compatible tectonic setting is a back-arc basin within influence of a continental source. Eastward subduction of the KMA beneath ancient North America collapsed the back-arc basin by latest Cretaceous time.

The Boulder Lefroy-Golden Mile fault system in the Archean Yigarn Craton is the most productive gold-mineralized structure in Australia (>2300 t Au). The New Celebration deposit (51 t Au) is part of a group of hematite- and anhydrite-bearing mesothermal deposits and Fe-Cu-Au skarns associated with monzodiorite-tonalite intrusions in the strike-slip fault system. Ore-grade biotite-carbonate and late sericite-carbonate-alkali feldspar replacement is bound to the contacts of a felsic (low Cr, Ni, V) quartz-plagioclase porphyry dyke dated at 2676 ± 7 Ma. The sodic-potassic alteration of the felsic boudinaged dyke contrasts with the albite-actinolite alteration in the adjacent mafic (high Cr, Ni, V) plagioclase porphyry dated at 2662 ± 4 Ma, although both share the same sulfide-oxide assemblage: pyrite ± chalcopyrite, magnetite ± hematite. The younger porphyry locally crosscuts foliation and is bordered by post-kinematic actinolite-pyrite selvages overprinting talc-chlorite-phlogopite-dolomite schist. It contains auriferous pyrite (70 ppb Au; 610 ppb Ag) where sampled for zircon U-Pb chronology at +224 m elevation. Above the sample site, the dyke was mined as gold ore (1–6 g/t Au) at +300–350 m. Temperature estimates based on actinolite-albite pairs (300–350 °C) agree with the fluid inclusion trapping temperature of main-stage auriferous veins (330 ± 20 °C). These relationships are interpreted to indicate syn-mineralization emplacement. Gold-related albite-altered porphyry dykes (albitites) also occur in the world-class Hollinger-McIntyre (986 t Au) and Kerr Addison-Chesterville deposits (336 t Au), Abitibi greenstone belt, Canada.

ABSTRACT The Huzyk Creek area is situated along the boundary between the Reindeer Zone and the Superior Boundary Zone of the Paleoproterozoic Trans-Hudson Orogen, where the Precambrian rocks are overlain by Phanerozoic cover. Two drill holes intersect graphite schist that is enriched in V, as well as U, Zn, Mo, and Cu, and is hosted by a metamorphosed wacke-mudstone sequence interleaved with variably altered mafic rocks. Whole-rock lithogeochemistry and Sm-Nd isotope chemistry suggest that the wacke-mudstone package is related to the turbidite-derived Burntwood Group of the Kisseynew Domain and was likely deposited relatively proximal to the Flin Flon arc-collage. A model is proposed in which redox-sensitive metals were leached from rocks of the Flin Flon arc-collage during weathering under oxidizing conditions. The metals were transported in oxygenated surface run-off draining the arc-collage and discharged into the Kisseynew Basin. Shallow waters of the Kisseynew Basin were likely oxygenated and biologically productive; however, the basin was likely euxinic at mid-depths. The mixing of the metal-enriched, oxygenated water with organic matter and euxinic water resulted in the reduction of the redox-sensitive metals and the formation of insoluble organometallic complexes and particles. A highstand, or period of tectonic quiescence, likely halted turbidite deposition and allowed for the settling organic and metal-rich particles to create relatively thick deposits. Burial and metamorphism resulted in the organic-rich material being transformed into graphite, while Mo, Cu, and Zn were partitioned into sulfides. The mineral hosts of V and U are not known at this time. The model calls for the fractionation of redox-sensitive metals from the water column shortly after discharge into the Kisseynew Basin and implies that graphitic horizons in relatively close proximity to the Flin Flon arc-collage have a greater potential for metal enrichment than graphite deposits farther removed from the arc. This model could apply to basins of similar metamorphic grade, age, and tectonic setting around the globe.

The Ternuvate strata comprise metamorphic rocks that make up the Haichur arcuate structure, which is about 72 km long. Its western part lies within the Andriivka fault zone, which separates the Vovcha and Huliaipole blocks, while the eastern part is located within the Ternuvate fault zone, traced on the Remivka block. The rocks composing the Haichur structure have irregular and laterally variable composition, changeable thickness, and exhibit dynamometamorphic structures of boudinage and schistosity. The upper part of the Ternuvate strata mainly consists of metasedimentary rocks, including gneisses, biotite schists, garnet-biotite, magnetite-amphibole, and feldspar quartzites. The lower part comprises volcanogenic rocks such as amphibolites, metaultrabasites, and biotite-amphibole gneisses. Using the LA-ICP-MS method, 38 zircon crystals from muscovite-biotite gneisses in the upper part of the Ternuvate strata were analyzed. Based on the geochemical data, these zircons are metamorphosed graywackes. The zircon crystals belong to several age populations (3.65-3.45 and 3.3-2.95 Ga), corresponding to the major stages of Archean crust formation in the West Azov domain, including the formation of the oldest basement and granite-greenstone complexes of the Paleoarchean and Mesoarchean ages. Identical populations of detrital zircon were found in the early Precambrian metaterrigenous rocks of the Krutobalka Formation in the Sorokyne greenstone structure. The correspondence between the Paleoarchean crust (3.45-3.65 Ga) of the West Azov block of the Ukrainian Shield and the Kursk-Besedine granulite-gneiss area of the Kursk Magnetic Anomaly block is evident, while the Paleoarchean and Mesoarchean complexes (2.9-3.3 Ga) correspond to the Mykhailivka and Orel-Tim granite-greenstone area of the Kursk Magnetic Anomaly block. The Archean complexes of Sarmatia are of the same age as similar formations in the Kaapvaal craton in South Africa, Bastar craton in India, North China Craton, Slave craton in Canada, and others, which formed during the Eoarchaean.

The southern Monashee Complex is a fault-bounded exposure of upper-amphibolite-grade basement gneisses (core gneisses) and unconformably overlying mantling metasedimentary gneisses. The eastern margin is marked by the Early Eocene ductile to brittle Columbia River fault zone; the western and southern margins are marked by the Monashee Decollement and structurally higher Selkirk allochthon.The basement gneisses are exposed in the cores of large, northeast-verging nappes that subsequently have been overprinted towards the east by the Columbia River fault zone. The basement gneisses are a supracrustal sequence intruded by at least two distinct orthogneisses: (i) a biotite granite gneiss ("gray gneiss") dated by U/Pb zircon at 1874 ± 21 Ma; and (ii) a ±hornblende–biotite K-feldspar augen gneiss dated by U/Pb zircon at 1934 ± 6 Ma.The supracrustal gneisses are predominantly heterogeneous biotite–quartz–feldspar gneiss interlayered with less common pelitic schist and calc-silicate gneiss. U/Pb zircon data on detrital zircon populations from this heterogeneous supracrustal sequence give 207Pb*/206Pb* ages of less than 2.2 Ga. Whole-rock Pb isotopic data indicate an age of approximately 2.0 Ga. Whole-rock Sm/Nd model ages on the two intrusive suites indicate separate sources, the 1874 Ma gneiss having been produced from similar-age juvenile Early Proterozoic material (TDM ≈ 2.2 Ga). In contrast, Nd data from the 1934 Ma augen gneiss clearly indicate interaction with a component of older (late Archean) material (TDM ≈ 2.8 Ga). Whole-rock Sm/Nd data from the supracrustal gneisses follow this same pattern, with one group (seven samples) similar to the 1874 Ma gneiss (with TDM ≈ 2.3–2.6 Ga) and a second group (five samples) showing provenance or derivation from an Archean source (TDM = 2.8–3.3 Ga). The age of the intrusive suites, combined with the Nd data, strongly argues for a correlation with the Early Proterozoic Wopmay orogenic belt in northern Canada.

Abstract Late Triassic to Early Jurassic porphyry Cu mineralization is common in British Columbia, yet there are few age-equivalent porphyry occurrences in Yukon. This study presents new data for the enigmatic Carmacks Copper Cu-Au-Ag deposit in south-central Yukon, Canada, which is hosted in amphibolite facies metamorphic inliers within the Early Jurassic Granite Mountain batholith. Sulfide mineralization occurs mainly as net-textured bornite and chalcopyrite in leucosome, and as chalcopyrite ± pyrite blebs and disseminations in amphibolite and quartz-plagioclase-biotite schist. Several studies suggest that the Carmacks Copper deposit and the nearby Minto deposit are related to porphyry belts in British Columbia, but constraining the timing of alteration, mineralization, and metamorphism has been difficult. This study establishes a geologic and high-precision geochronologic framework for sulfide mineralization and its host rocks at the Carmacks Copper deposit, using Re-Os dating of molybdenite, and chemical abrasion-thermal ionization mass spectrometry (CA-TIMS) analysis of both whole zircon grains and laser-cut fragments of complexly zoned zircon grains. Our data indicate that the igneous protolith of the metamorphic inliers formed at 217.53 ± 0.16 Ma, followed by peak metamorphism at amphibolite facies at 205.82 ± 0.23 Ma, which occurred prior to Granite Mountain batholith emplacement but subsequent to Cu-Au-Ag mineralization of the protolith. An early phase of the Granite Mountain batholith was emplaced at 199.84 ± 0.14 Ma, followed by the main phase at 195 to 194 Ma. A second generation of metamorphic zircon in migmatite at 196.01 ± 0.12 Ma represents a partial melting event associated with Granite Mountain batholith emplacement. Two petrographically distinct populations of molybdenite are present in unstrained, net-textured copper sulfides. A sample dominated by strained molybdenite yielded an 187Re/187Os age of 212.5 ± 1.0 Ma, which represents the minimum mineralization age of the protolith. A sample dominated by euhedral grains yielded an 187Re/187Os age of 198.5 ± 0.9 Ma, constraining the maximum age of sulfide remobilization. These results indicate that primary mineralization is >212.5 Ma and potentially coeval with the ~217.5 Ma generation of Late Triassic magmatism. The mineralized protolith, best interpreted as the potassic alteration zone of a Late Triassic (~217–213 Ma) porphyry Cu-Au system, was metamorphosed to amphibolite facies at ~206 Ma, and subsequently migmatized during 200 to 194 Ma intrusion of the Granite Mountain batholith. The chalcopyrite-bornite-dominant assemblage in neosome precipitated from an immiscible Cu-Fe-S melt phase that partly consumed xenocrystic molybdenite and reprecipitated new molybdenite grains. The Carmacks Copper deposit and the related Minto deposit are remnants of a Late Triassic porphyry belt, where a significant fraction of the original metal endowment was likely lost through digestion of mineralized rocks by midcrustal magma in the Early Jurassic. These Yukon deposits are rare examples of metamorphosed porphyry Cu systems in the global geologic record, where rapid tectonic burial following mineralization was the principal factor in their preservation.

Using the LA-ICP-MS method, 38 zircon crystals from muscovite-biotite gneisses of the upper part of the Ternuvate strata were analyzed. According to geochemical data, they are metamorphosed greywacke. Zircon belongs to several age populations (3.65—3.45 and 3.3—2.95 Ga), corresponding to the major stages of the formation of the Archean crust in the West Azov domain, i.e., formation of the oldest basement and granite-greenstone complexes of the Paleoarchean and Mesoarchean ages. Identical populations of the detrital zircon were established in the early Precambrian metaterrigenous rocks of the Krutobalka Formation of the Sorokyne greenstone structure. The similarity of the Paleoarchean crust (3.45—3.65 Ga) of the West Azov block (Ukrainian Shield) and the Kursk-Besedine granulite-gneiss area of the Kursk Magnetic Anomaly (KMA) block is obvious, whereas the Paleoarchean and Mesoarchean complexes (3.3—2.95 Ga) correspond to the rocks of Mykhailiv and Orel-Tim granite-greenstone area of the KMA block. The Archean complexes of the Sarmatia are of the same age as similar formations of the Kaapvaal craton in South Africa, Bastar craton in India, North China Craton, Slave craton in Canada and others, which were formed since the Eoarchaean.

Abstract The nominally anhydrous, calcium-silicate garnets, grossular (Ca3Al2Si3O12), andradite (Ca3Fe23+Si3O12), schorlomite (Ca3Ti24+[Si,Fe23+]O12), and their solid solutions can incorporate structural OH-, often termed “water.” The IR single-crystal spectra of several calcium silicate garnets were recorded between 3000 and 4000 cm–1. Spectroscopic results are also taken from the literature. All spectra show various OH- stretching modes between 3500 and 3700 cm–1 and they are analyzed. Following the conclusions of Part I of this study, the garnets appear to contain local microscopic- and nano-size Ca3Al2H12O12- and Ca3Fe23+H12O12-like domains and/or clusters dispersed throughout an anhydrous “matrix.” The substitution mechanism is the hydrogarnet one, where (H4O4)4– ↔ (SiO4)4–, and various local configurations containing different numbers of (H4O4)4– groups define the cluster type. A single (H4O4) group is roughly 3 Å across and most (H4O4)-clusters are between this and 15 Å in size. This model can explain the IR spectra and also other experimental results. Various hypothetical “defect” and cation substitutional mechanisms are not needed to account for OH- incorporation and behavior in garnet. New understanding at the atomic level into published dehydration and H-species diffusion results, as well as H2O-concentration and IR absorption-coefficient determinations, is now possible for the first time. End-member synthetic and natural grossular crystals can show similar OH- “band patterns,” as can different natural garnets, indicating that chemical equilibrium could have operated during their crystallization. Under this assumption, the hydrogarnet-cluster types and their concentrations can potentially be used to decipher petrologic (i.e., P-T-X) conditions under which a garnet crystal, and the rock in which it occurs, formed. Schorlomites from phonolites contain no or very minor amounts of H2O (0.0 to 0.02 wt%), whereas Ti-bearing andradites from chlorite schists can contain more H2O (∼0.3 wt%). Different hydrogarnet clusters and concentrations can occur in metamorphic grossulars from Asbestos, Quebec, Canada. IR absorption coefficients for H2O held in hydrogrossularand hydroandradite-like clusters should be different in magnitude and this work lays out how they can be best determined. Hydrogen diffusion behavior in garnet crystals at high temperatures is primarily governed by the thermal stability of the different local hydrogarnet clusters at 1 atm.

The protolith age of high-grade metamorphic rocks exposed in structurally deep parts of the Omineca Crystalline Belt has been the subject of investigation and controversy for decades. We have applied multiple isotopic dating techniques to rocks of three structural culminations: the Monashee complex (which includes the Frenchman Cap and Thor–Odin gneiss domes), the Grand Forks horst, and the Vaseaux Formation, which lies in the footwall of the Okanagan Valley fault.Frenchman Cap core gneisses contain highly radiogenic Sr that scatters about a 2206 ± 117 Ma (1σ) Rb–Sr isochron with 87Sr/86Sr initial ratio of 0.700 ± 0.002. Monazite and zircon dates for the same rocks are 1851 ± 7 to 2103 ± 16 Ma (only U–Pb dates are given with 2σ errors), with lower intercepts from about 100 to 300 Ma. Sm–Nd whole-rock and crustal-residence (TDM) dates are 2.3 ± 0.2 Ga. Mafic–felsic layering in the core gneiss is also of Early Proterozoic age. There is no geochronometric evidence for Late Proterozoic or Mesozoic migmatization.Frenchman Cap mantling gneisses, including samples from above the Monashee décollement, have radiogenic Sr and unradiogenic Nd compositions that are not consistent with current inferences of a Late Proterozoic to Paleozoic depositional age. Two intrusive granitic rocks, which cut mantling gneiss, are either Early Proterozoic or Mesozoic–Cenozoic with a Proterozoic Sr isotopic signature acquired by assimilation of core gneiss. One other intrusive studied is probably Paleocene Ladybird granite. The age of the mantling gneiss is not yet consistently resolved.Grand Forks Gneiss Unit I paragneiss gives radiogenic whole-rock Sr, zircon U–Pb upper intercept, and Sm–Nd whole-rock crustal-residence dates of 1.7 ± 0.4 Ga, 1681 ± 3 Ma (2σ, but the apparent high precision is very dependent on the assumption made about the time of Pb loss), and 1.9 ± 0.3 Ga, respectively. Unit II and younger Grand Forks Gneiss units are Late Proterozoic or Phanerozoic. All isotope systems have been considerably reset on a centimetre to metre scale by Mesozoic–Cenozoic regional metamorphism. Grand Forks Sr, Pb, and Nd isotope data are much like those for Spokane area pre-Purcell basement.Vaseaux Formation micaceous schist and gneiss give radiogenic whole-rock Sr, zircon U–Pb upper intercept, and Sm–Nd crustal-residence dates of 2.1 ± 0.6 Ga, 1899 ± 49 Ma (2σ), and 2.2 ± 0.1 Ga, respectively. Hornblende-bearing schist and gneiss contain much less radiogenic Sr and more radiogenic Nd. The latter are either tectonic intercalations of Late Proterozoic to Paleozoic eugeosynclinal rocks or Mesozoic–Cenozoic mixtures of mantle-derived magma and older crustal rock. The Vaseaux Formation paragneiss is similar isotopically to paragneiss in the Frenchman Cap core gneiss. This may indicate a similar age, or that Vaseaux sedimentary rocks could be much younger and isochemically derived from a basement of Frenchman Cap character. The first alternative is favored because the three isotope systems are usually not preserved in unison through sedimentary processes. Sr isotopes, in particular, do not usually preserve a provenance age.In all three areas, late Mesozoic to early Cenozoic metamorphic monazite, hornblende, muscovite, and biotite dates provide a record of cooling from a Cretaceous to Paleocene culmination of regional metamorphism, with particularly rapid cooling during Paleocene to Eocene crustal extension and tectonic unroofing.The localities studied are tectonic windows on structural culminations that expose basement that we infer to be part of North America. Their ages fit the pattern of basement ages established for the stable craton. Their extent is consistent with the reconstruction of compressed miogeoclinal rocks. The eastern half of the Cordilleran region on both sides of the United States – Canada border is underlain by Early Proterozoic basement that was attenuated in Late Proterozoic time, compressed during Mesozoic–Cenozoic orogeny, and finally extended in early Cenozoic collapse of the thickened crust. During Mesozoic–Cenozoic orogeny the sedimentary cover of that basement was pushed approximately 200 km eastward and replaced by allochthonous terranes. The tectonic displacements documented in the southern Canadian Cordillera are truly exceptional.

Abstract Garnet-kyanite-staurolite assemblages with large, late porphyroblasts of amphibole form garbenschists in Ordovician volcaniclastic rocks lying immediately south of the Pearya terrane on northernmost Ellesmere Island, Canada. The schist, which together with carbonate olistoliths makes up the Petersen Bay Assemblage, displays a series of parallel isograds that mark an increase in metamorphic grade over a distance of 10 km towards the contact with Pearya; however, a steep, brittle Cenozoic strike-slip fault with an unknown amount displacement disturbs the earlier accretionary relationship. The late amphibole growth, probably due to fluid ingress, is clear evidence of disequilibrium conditions in the garbenschist. In order to recover the P–T history of the schists, we construct isochemical phase equilibrium models for a nearby garnet-mica schist that escaped the fluid event and compare the results to quartz inclusion in garnet (QuiG) barometry for a garbenschist and the metapelitic garnet schist. Quartz inclusions are confined to garnet cores and the QuiG results, combined with Ti-in-biotite and garnet-biotite thermometry, delineate a prograde path from 480 to 600 °C and 0.7 to 0.9 GPa. This path agrees with growth zoning in garnet deduced from X-ray maps of the spessartine component in garnet. The peak conditions obtained from pseudosection modelling using effective bulk composition and the intersection of garnet rim with matrix biotite and white mica isopleths in the metapelite are 665 °C at ≤0.85 GPa. Three generations of monazite (I, II, and III) were identified by textural characterization, geochemical composition (REE and Y concentrations) and U-Pb ages measured by ion microprobe. Monazite I occurs in the matrix and as inclusions in garnet rims, and grew at peak P–T conditions at 397 ± 2 Ma (2σ) from the breakdown of allanite. Monazite II forms overgrowths on matrix Monazite I grains that are oriented parallel to the main schistosity and yield ages of 385 ± 2 Ma. Monazite III, found only in the garbenschist, is 374 ± 6 Ma, which is interpreted as the time of amphibole growth during fluid infiltration at lower temperature and pressure on a clockwise P–T path that remained in the kyanite stability field. These results point to a relatively short (≈ 12 Myr) Barrovian metamorphic event that affected the schists of the Petersen Bay Assemblage. An obvious heat source is lacking in the adjacent Pearya terrane, but we speculate it was large Devonian plutons – similar to the 390 ± 10 Ma Cape Woods granite located 40 km across strike from the fault – that have been excised by strike-slip. Arc fragments that are correlative to the Petersen Bay Assemblage are low grade; they never saw the heat and were not directly involved in Pearya accretion.

The Kluane Schist is a metamorphosed package of siliciclastic and lesser calcareous rocks that lies between the inboard pericratonic Intermontane terranes and outboard Insular terranes of the North American Cordillera within Yukon, Canada. The metamorphic sequence of the Kluane Schist preserves a record of the tectono-thermal evolution and timing of Insular terrane accretion. Here we document the timing of metamorphism and deformation across the Kluane Schist using in situ laser ablation−inductively coupled plasma−mass spectrometry U-Th-Pb monazite petrochronology. Monazite-bearing samples collected across an inverted metamorphic sequence preserved in the northern regions of the Kluane Schist yield dates ranging from ca. 70 Ma to 55 Ma. Complementary phase equilibria modeling and thin section analysis indicate monazite grew between ∼450 °C and 3.0−3.5 kbar to ∼700−715 °C and 4.0−4.5 kbar, coeval with the development of the Kluane Schist’s inverted metamorphic sequence. Dating the four chemical zones preserved by monazite demonstrates its protracted growth during three distinct periods of garnet crystallization and breakdown, as well as coeval with melt generation. Our data illustrate that peak metamorphic conditions were reached at progressively younger ages with decreasing structural level within the Kluane Schist. Our results are consistent with Buchan-style metamorphism associated with the terminal accretion of the outboard Insular terranes and southwest-directed overriding of the inboard Yukon-Tanana terrane from ca. 70 Ma to 55 Ma. These findings are further congruous with a Late Cretaceous timing for the terminal accretion of the Insular terranes within southwest Yukon, facilitated by east-dipping subduction beneath a westward migrating North American continent.

ABSTRACT A novel type of corundum host environment is described from the Thompson Mine, northern Manitoba, where corundum occurs within a high-grade metamorphic reaction zone between boudinaged metaperidotite bodies, sulfide ore, and Al-rich pelitic schist of the Pipe Formation (Ospwagan Group). Zoned corundum porphyroblasts, up to 20 mm across, contain coevally formed sulfide inclusions, zircon, rutile, abundant exsolved rutile needles, and secondary sulfide inclusions formed within fractures. Retrograde alteration products of corundum include greenish muscovite (in contact with the schist) and diaspore (in contact with sulfides). The median concentrations of trace elements in Thompson corundum are as follows (in µg/g): 119 Mg, 1720 Ti, 69.9 V, 390 Cr, 8.2 Mn, 1924 Fe, 9.1 Ni, and 106 Ga. The geochemical signature of Thompson corundum (enrichment in Fe, Cr, and Ni) resembles that of ruby in other metamorphic and metasomatic mafic-ultramafic-hosted deposits, and the Cr concentration is comparable to the low range of rubies. Thompson corundum contains high Ni concentrations relative to most Cr-enriched corundum occurrences, a result of formation in an exceptionally Ni-rich environment. The high abundance of exsolved rutile inclusions imparts a dominantly brownish-gray color to the corundum, which precludes it from being of gem quality. Chromium-bearing corundum has been suggested as a possible indicator mineral for metamorphosed massive sulfide deposits, however, it is an indirect indicator that risks yielding false positives. Further investigation into Ni concentrations in corundum, a potential indicator of formation in a Ni-rich environment, is recommended.

The northwestern Avalon Terrane, Newfoundland, is underlain by Neoproterozoic rocks traditionally divided into older Love Cove Group, medial Connecting Point Group, and the unconformably overlying Musgravetown Group. New lithogeochemical, isotopic, and updated U–Pb (zircon) age data demand changes to stratigraphic nomenclature and maps and help constrain the tectonomagmatic evolution. U–Pb age constraints include 620 ± 2 Ma for the calc-alkaline Broad Island Group (former Love Cove Group); 605 ± 1.2 Ma for rhyolite from near Bull Arm (type area, Bull Arm Formation, lower Musgravetown Group); 589 ± 2.0 Ma for a schist from the Love Cove type locality; 568.7 ± 1.4 Ma for rhyolite of the Rocky Harbour Formation, upper Musgravetown Group; and 572 ± 2 Ma for Louil Hills granite. In light of these results, remnants of the main Avalonian arc are re-designated “Broad Island Group”, for the site of the dated 620 Ma tuff. The ca. 589 Ma schist from Love Cove is included in the Musgravetown Group and may be a tectonized equivalent of Bull Arm Formation. Our data outline a tectonomagmatic change from arc-dominated magmatism at ca. 620 Ma, to an extensional regime ca. 605–589 Ma, culminating in alkaline magmatism by ca. 572 Ma. εNdt values (t = 620–569 Ma) for felsic rocks range from 3.7 to 5.6 and yield TDM ages consistent with derivation from a juvenile Neoproterozoic (878–730 Ma) basement. Mafic rocks exhibit a time-progressive increase in εNdt, indicating more juvenile mantle sources through time. Further delimitation of map units of the area await integrated lithostratigraphy, precise modern U–Pb geochronology, and lithogeochemistry.

Legacy U-Pb isotopic data are reported for the Mesoarchean Central Slave Cover Group and Neoarchean Yellowknife greenstone belt, Slave craton, Northwest Territories, Canada. In two locations north of the City of Yellowknife, exposures of cover group rocks occur beneath mafic volcanic and subvolcanic units traditionally assigned to the basal Chan Formation of the Kam Group. Both cover group occurrences contain felsic volcanic tuff units that yield eruption ages of 2853 +2/-1.5 Ma and 2826 ± 1.5 Ma. The younger tuff is underlain by felsic volcaniclastic schist with a dominant, basement-aged detrital zircon population that was deposited after 2840 ± 6 Ma. Near the south end of the exposed greenstone belt, a felsic tuff within the Octopus Formation provides an age of 2699 ± 3 Ma, confirming that this formation is not part of the Central Slave Cover Group. A pillowed basalt flow within the Chan Formation is cut by a composite gabbro dyke dated as 2738 +3.5/-3 Ma. However, a more general ca. 2730-2740 Ma age interpretation for this dyke may be appropriate due to the potential for complex lead loss behaviour in the dated baddeleyite fractions. Younger U-Pb zircon and monazite ages reported herein (2710-2706 Ma) contribute to our understanding of felsic magmatic and gold-mineralizing events that influenced later development of the Yellowknife greenstone belt. Although the depositional history of the autochthonous Central Slave Cover Group is becoming better known, questions remain regarding the age and tectonomagmatic affinity of adjacent mafic volcanic rocks traditionally assigned to the Kam Group and correlative assemblages. Are some of these rocks actually part of the Central Slave Cover Group?
