New insights into Cryogenian arc granitoids hosting Th-U mineralized Ediacaran syenogranite dikes, Ra's Abdah area in the northern Egyptian Nubian Shield: Constraints from U-Pb ages and zircon geochemistry

Osama K. Dessouky et al.

Summary: The transition from compressional to extensional magmatism in the Ra's Abdah area of northern Eastern Desert of Egypt revealed new tectonic environments for Ediacaran uraniferous syenogranite dikes. U-Pb dating showed ages of 597 +/- 15 Ma for dikes and 663.2 +/- 8.4 Ma for arc granitoids, extending the age of late Precambrian post-orogenic dikes to 597 +/- 15 Ma in the Egyptian Nubian Shield. The similar geochemical behavior of zircons from dikes and host rocks suggests a common magma source, with high fractional crystallization playing a key role in the transition from arc granitoids to syenogranite dikes.
