Progress towards an improved Precambrian seawater 87Sr/86Sr curve

Xi Chen et al.

Summary: The secular trend of seawater strontium isotope ratio provides important information about changes in ocean composition and global tectonic events. This study compiled and evaluated strontium isotope ratio data of Precambrian marine sedimentary rocks and generated an improved seawater Sr-87/Sr-86 curve. The results indicate an earlier deviation of seawater Sr-87/Sr-86 from the mantle, as well as stronger oscillations and better correspondence with supercontinent cycles than previously shown.

A wet heterogeneous mantle creates a habitable world in the Hadean

Yoshinori Miyazaki et al.

Summary: This study finds that chemical heterogeneity in hydrated mantle plays a crucial role in ocean formation, the onset of plate tectonics, and rapid removal of greenhouse gases, which are all essential for creating a habitable environment on terrestrial planets.

Earth's one-of-a-kind fault: The Tanlu fault

Peng Peng et al.

Summary: Large-scale strike-slip faulting is common in active tectonic margins, but rarely occurs in ancient continental nuclei known as cratons. However, recent research has shown that the thick North China craton experienced a large-scale rupture from 240 to 165 million years ago, with a displacement of approximately 450 km caused by an intracratonic rotation along the Tanlu fault. This rupture led to the collapse of the cratonic lithosphere in eastern North China.

Magmatic Response to Subduction Initiation, Part II: Boninites and Related Rocks of the Izu-Bonin Arc From IOPD Expedition 352

John W. Shervais et al.

Summary: The International Ocean Discovery Program Expedition 352 collected comprehensive data on over 800 meters of in situ oceanic crust comprising boninite and boninite-series lavas in the Izu-Bonin forearc. The lavas were categorized into high-silica boninite, low-silica boninite, and basaltic boninite based on their chemical compositions, with distinct axial and off-axis lava types identified through chemostratigraphic analysis. This study provides insights into the origins and petrogenesis of these unusual boninite lavas in the forearc setting.

Onset of plate tectonics by the Eoarchean

Brian F. Windley et al.

Summary: The paper presents evidence suggesting that plate tectonics was already in operation during the Eoarchean period around 4.0 billion years ago. It highlights the presence of two types of plate tectonics - Accretionary Cycle Plate Tectonics and Wilson Cycle Plate Tectonics in the early Earth, leading to the formation and growth of continental landmasses and subsequent continent collisions. The holistic view of crustal growth and continental evolution suggested in the paper provides a robust and testable model of Earth evolution from its early stages to the present day.

Do all Archaean TTG rock compositions represent former melts?

Hugh Rollinson

Summary: This paper argues that the diversity in chemical composition in Archaean granitoids of the tonalite-trondhjemite-granodiorite suite (TTG) is primarily the product of crystal fractionation, specifically plagioclase and hornblende fractionation. The implications of this proposal are twofold: the subdivision of TTGs into different types based on trace element concentrations may be misleading, and if hornblende fractionation is important in TTG genesis, it suggests an amphibolitic rather than eclogitic source simplifying geodynamic options. Case studies support the idea that Archaean TTGs can experience significant hornblende and plagioclase fractionation, emphasizing the need to consider fractional crystallization effects and least fractionated samples in geochemical models for their origin.

Archean geodynamics: Ephemeral supercontinents or long-lived supercratons

Yebo Liu et al.

Summary: Research suggests that Archean cratons may have been pieces of some ancestral landmasses rather than constituting a supercontinent. Starkly contrasting geological records between different clans of cratons have inspired a new hypothesis, proposing that cratons were clustered in multiple, separate supercratons.

Detrital rutile tracks the first appearance of subduction zone low T/P paired metamorphism in the Palaeoproterozoic

Ines Pereira et al.

Summary: Earth is unique within the Solar System with its active plate tectonic regime. The timing of the development of plate tectonics on Earth is still debated, with some evidence suggesting it could have been operational as early as the Archaean. By examining detrital rock records and using rutile as a proxy for tracking low T/P metamorphism, researchers have been able to trace the occurrence of different metamorphic conditions through geological time. The study confirms that low T/P metamorphism has been operating on Earth since at least the late Palaeoproterozoic.

Depositional age and geochemistry of the 2.44-2.32 Ga Granular Iron Formation in the Songshan Group, North China Craton: Tracing the effects of atmospheric oxygenation on continental weathering and seawater environment

Caiyun Lan et al.

Summary: The study reports a Granular Iron Formation (GIF) in the North China Craton, with a depositional age constrained at 2.44-2.32 Ga. The presence of hematite in the GIF indicates oxygenation of shallow seawater during this period.

Mariana-type ophiolites constrain the establishment of modern plate tectonic regime during Gondwana assembly

Jinlong Yao et al.

Summary: This study presents a 518 million year old Mariana-type subduction initiation ophiolite from northern Tibet, suggesting the establishment of modern plate tectonic regime in the early Cambrian. The global tectonic re-organization during this time period, likely influenced by secular cooling of the Earth and sediment lubrication of subduction zones from widespread surface erosion, marked the formation of the contemporary Earth. The identification of similar ophiolites, along with geological and chemical proxies, provides new constraints on the timing of modern plate tectonics establishment and its connections to surficial changes on Earth.

Tanz zircon megacrysts: a new zircon reference material for the microbeam determination of U-Pb ages and Zr-O isotopes

Zhaochu Hu et al.

Summary: The Tanz zircon megacrysts from Tanzania exhibit uniform U-Pb ages, O isotopes, and Zr isotopes, making them suitable as reference materials for microbeam analysis. However, they show a wide distribution of Hf isotope compositions, which hinders their potential as a reference material for microbeam analysis. These features suggest that the Tanz zircon megacrysts could be used as a primary reference material for U-Pb ages and Zr-O isotopes.
