Abstract:
AbstractLarge conglomerate lenses occur in a fine-grained siliciclastic succession of the Singhbhum craton, eastern India. They overlie an Archaean orthogneiss, from which they are separated by a palaeosol. Neither the conglomerates nor the directly overlying rocks have been dated, but the conglomerate unit is assumed to have also an Archaean age. The conglomerate lenses occur within a succession of pelitic and mafic schists, and the depositional environment of this conglomerate/schist unit had not been clarified thus far. On the basis of a combination of the vertical and horizontal distributi

Abstract:
Abstract A new lithostratigraphic framework based upon a review of historic data, field mapping and remote sensing, including aerial photography, high-resolution airborne aeromagnetic and radiometric data, is proposed for the Archaean geology along the southeastern margin of the Kaapvaal Craton, South Africa. A synthesis of new and existing data reveals that previously accepted lithostratigraphic schemes require complete revision, with reinterpretations identifying multiple major shear zones and previously unidentified granitoid successions along the margin of the craton.

Abstract:
Abstract The Kaapvaal and Zimbabwe cratons host some of the earliest evidence for life. When compared to the contemporaneous East Pilbara craton, cherts and other metasedimentary horizons in southern Africa preserve traces of life with far greater morphological and geochemical fidelity. In spite of this, most fossiliferous horizons of southern Africa have received relatively limited attention. This review summarises current knowledge regarding the nature of early life and its distribution with respect to environments and ecosystems in the Archaean (>2.5 Ga) of the region, correlating st

AbstractThe Stac Fada Member of the Stoer Group, within the Torridonian succession of NW Scotland, is a melt-rich, impact-related deposit that has not been conclusively correlated with any known impact structure. However, a gravity low approximately 50 km east of the preserved Stac Fada Member outcrops has recently been proposed as the associated impact site. We investigate the location of the impact structure through a provenance study of detrital zircon and apatite in five samples from the Stoer Group. Our zircon U–Pb data are dominated by Archaean grains (> 2.5 Ga), consistent with earli

The Jiao-Liao-Ji belt (JLJB), in the Eastern Block of the North China Craton, is a major Paleoproterozoic orogen and underwent a complicated tectonic evolution during 2.2–1.8 Ga. The Liaohe Group, an important stratigraphic unit in the JLJB, is key to understanding the complex evolution of this belt. In this paper, we present new detrital zircon U–Pb ages and Hf isotope data for meta-sedimentary rocks from the Gaixian Formation in different areas of the JLJB, in addition to compiled data for other formations of the Liaohe Group, to establish the depositional age and source of detrital material

New outcrops of Archaean and early Proterozoic crystalline rocks are recorded only as xenoliths in dykes and volcanic centres. A revised stratigraphy is applied to the middle Proterozoic Independence Fjord Group sandstones, while petrographic and isotopic studies have been made of the cross-cutting Midsommersø dolerites and the overlying Zig-Zag Dal Basalt Formation.

The Archaean Steep Rock Group of northwest Ontario, situated in the Wabigoon Subprovince of the Superior Province, Canada, comprises five formations: Wagita Formation (clastics), Mosher Carbonate, Jolliffe Ore Zone, Dismal Ashrock, and Witch Bay Formation (metavolcanics). Reinvestigation of the geology of the group has shown that the basal clastics of the Wagita Formation (0–150 m) unconformably overlie the Marmion Complex (a massive tonalite – tonalite gneiss terrane, 3 Ga old). Overlying the basal elastics is the Mosher Carbonate (0–500 m), containing diverse stromatolite morphologies. Exten

The distribution of Archean Nickel sulphide deposits reflects tectonic controls operating during the evolution of the granitoid greenstone terrains. Important deposits of komatiitic-affinity are concentrated within, and adjacent to, younger (∼2.7 Ga), rift-related greenstone belts (e.g. Canada, Western Australia and Zimababwe). Two important classes of Archean Nickel sulphide deposits exist, formerly known as "Dunitic" and "Peridotitic", these are now referred to as Group I and Group II deposits, based on their characteristic structure and composition.

Combined Lu-Hf, Sm-Nd and Rb-Sr isotopic studies of continental crustal rocks were undertaken to assess the relative effects of secondary crustal processes on isotopic systematics of whole-rock systems. The processes studied include ductile deformation, and three cases of hydrothermal alteration, involving fluids of varying composition. The Rb-Sr system proved to be easily disturbed during all secondary processes, while Sm-Nd and Lu-Hf systems were, for the most part, resilient. These results show that Nd or Hf isotopic information obtained from old rocks that have undergone typical crustal de

The external silicon cycle during the Precambrian (4.5-0.5 Ga) is not well understood despite its key significance to apprehend ancient dynamics at the surface of the Earth. In the absence of silicifying organisms, external silicon cycle dramatically differs from nowadays. Our current understanding of Precambrian oceans is limited to the assumption that silicon concentrations were close to saturation of amorphous silica. This thesis aims to bring new insights to different processes that controlled the geochemical silicon cycle during the Archaean (3.8-2.5 Ga). Bulk rock Ge/Si ratio and Si isot
