Mafic intrusions in southwestern Australia related to supercontinent assembly or breakup?

Title Neoproterozoic arc-related mafic intrusions along the northern margin of South China: Implications for the accretion of Rodinia

South China has been considered as part of the Rodinian supercontinent during Neoproterozoic time, although its paleogeographic position within this supercontinent is still a matter of debate. The Wangjiangshan and Bijigou complexes along the northern margin of South China are among the largest mafic intrusions in China. New SHRIMP zircon U-Pb results indicate that these two intrusions have cry...

A Mesoarchean Rifted Continental Margin in the Wyoming Province: Evidence for Supercontinent Breakup

Age and Provenance of the Beardmore Group, Antarctica: Constraints on Rodinia Supercontinent Breakup

New U-Pb ages for detrital and igneous zircons constrain the depositional age and sedimentary provenance of the Beardmore Group, a siliciclastic succession that records transformation of the East Antarctic margin during Rodinia breakup and subsequent Gondwana amalgamation. We divide rocks previously mapped as the Beardmore Group into (1) an inboard late Neoproterozoic assemblage (probably ≤670 ...

PRECAMBRIAN RESEARCH CENTER PROFESSIONAL WORKSHOP SERIES Field, Petrographic, and Mineralization Characteristics of Mafic Layered Intrusions

The Sonju Lake intrusion (SLI) is a 1200-m-thick, shallow-dipping, sheet-like intrusion that forms part of the Beaver Bay Complex (RI-58, Chapter 7). Although its exposed strike-length is only about 3 km (Fig. 3-1), the SLI has a distinctive aeromagnetic signature that can be traced for at least 20 km beneath a cover of glacial drift. The nearly constant width of its aeromagnetic anomaly sugges...

Intrusions in episodic memory: reconsolidation or interference?

It would be profoundly important if reconsolidation research in animals and other memory domains generalized to human episodic memory. A 3-d-list-discrimination procedure, based on free recall of objects, with a contextual reminder cue (the testing room), has been thought to demonstrate reconsolidation of human episodic memory (as noted in a previous study). Our goal was to replicate the centra...
