Spatial and temporal control of Archean tectonomagmatic regimes

Eric D. Vandenburg et al.

Summary: This study investigates the relationship between early Earth tectonics and geochemistry by analyzing a large dataset of granitoids from the Pilbara Craton in Western Australia. The geochemical characteristics of the granitoids are found to be distributed within specific lithotectonic blocks, revealing the tectonomagmatic evolution of the craton. Time-sliced geochemical contour mapping indicates a rift event around 3.2 billion years ago, leading to a transition in magmatic composition. The results suggest that rift-assisted breakup is a viable mechanism for craton growth.

Tectonic fluid expulsion: U-Pb evidence for punctuated hydrothermal fluid flow and hydraulic fracturing during orogenesis

Birger Rasmussen et al.

Summary: Tectonic fluid expulsion in permeable foreland basin sequences has been examined, and it has been discovered that fluids migrate through low-permeability successions. U-Pb data from the Hamersley region in Australia indicate that fluids expelled during tectonic compression migrated through older shales by fracture permeability and enhanced diffusion. The timing of veining was not random, but coincided with major orogenic events, linking fluid overpressure and hydraulic fracturing to the expulsion of heated orogenic fluids. These findings provide insight into fluid flow in geological processes.

U-Pb dating reveals multiple Paleoproterozoic orogenic events (Hamersley orogenic cycle) along the southern Pilbara margin (Australia) spanning the onset of atmospheric oxygenation

Birger Rasmussen et al.

Summary: The early Paleoproterozoic was a time of significant changes in Earth's climate and surface environment. By studying the supracrustal sequences in the southern Pilbara craton in northwestern Australia, researchers have discovered a previously overlooked pre-Ophthalmia deformational event. This finding provides new insights into the timing and origin of major geological events during this period of global environmental change.

Secular Evolution of Continents and the Earth System

Peter A. Cawood et al.

Summary: Understanding the secular evolution of the Earth system is essential for studying the history of our planet. By analyzing the rock and mineral archive in the continental lithosphere, researchers have identified seven phases of secular evolution. Integrating this record with knowledge of mantle cooling and lithospheric rheology provides insights into the changes in tectonic modes throughout Earth's history.

Lithological fabric as a proxy for Rb-Sr isotopic complexity

Janne Liebmann et al.

Summary: In situ Rb-Sr dating is a powerful chronometer that can determine the timing of crystal growth or cooling in minerals. The study analyzed the model ages of biotite samples and found differences in the distribution of isotopic ratios in different geological samples. Single-analysis model ages can provide thermochronological information from complex data sets. Texture analysis can also predict the correlation between orientation diversity and biotite age complexity. Therefore, in situ Rb-Sr dating is sensitive to constrain the timing of geological events and has important applications in geological interpretation.

Advances in in-situ Rb-Sr dating using LA-ICP-MS/MS: applications to igneous rocks of all ages and to the identification of unrecognized metamorphic events

Chengyuan Wang et al.

Summary: In-situ Rb-Sr dating of rocks provides spatially resolved analysis and avoids time-consuming preparation. The method is optimized by using LA-ICP-MS/MS with N2O as a reaction gas for chemical separation of Rb-87 from 87Sr. The method is demonstrated to be applicable for geological samples of different ages and can provide valuable information on metamorphic histories.

Nature Versus Nurture: Preservation and Destruction of Archean Cratons

H. Bedle et al.

Summary: The factors promoting stability of Archean cratons were investigated, emphasizing the importance of buoyancy, viscosity, and integrated yield strength for the intrinsic strength of a craton, as well as the early cratonization in forming stable Archean cratonic lithosphere. Subsequent processes such as subduction, rifting, and mantle plumes can modify and weaken cratonic lithosphere by introducing heat, fluids, and partial melts. The survivability of Archean cratons depends on avoiding certain tectonic processes and the extent of modification, as their stability decreases as the Earth cools.

Reconstructing craton-scale tectonic events via in situ Rb-Sr geochronology of poly-phased vein mineralization

Mikael Tillberg et al.

Summary: By using LA-ICP-MS/MS in situ Rb-Sr dating, this study reveals multiple age clusters between ca. 1757 +/- 15 and 355 +/- 12 Ma in mineralization assemblages at three Palaeoproterozoic crystalline bedrock sites, linking fluid flow and fracture reactivation events with far-field orogens and foreland basin evolution. This new approach connects micro-scale age determinations with regional-scale crustal dynamic responses, providing insights into the tectonic evolution of Precambrian cratons.
