Podiform Chromitites in the Sorkhband Ultramafic Complex, Southern Iran: Evidence for
The podiform chromitite deposits of the Ordovician Sorkhband ultramafic complex, southwestern Makran, are the largest chromitite deposits in Iran. The Sorkhband ultramafic complex comprises of a northern part of dunite, podiform chromitite, olivine clinopyroxenite, wehrlite and olivine websterite and a southern part of foliated diopsidic harzburgite with subordinate dunite, olivine clinopyroxen...
متن کاملPetrography and Geochemistry of the Crawfish Inlet and Krestof Island Plutons, Baranof Island, Alaska
The Sanak-Baranof plutonic belt (SBPB) includes a series of biotite tonalite, granodiorite, and granite neartrench plutons that intrude the Campanian to Eocene flysch of the Chugach-Prince William terrane (CPW) for 2100 km along the southern Alaskan margin (Hudson et al., 1979; Hill et al., 1981; Bradley et al., 2003; Haeussler et al., 2003). SBPB intrusions have been interpreted to be the resu...
متن کاملGeochemistry of the Knight Island Ophiolite and Chenega Island Volcanics, Prince William Sound, Alaska
The tectonic evolution of southern Alaska is defined by a long history of subduction, accretion, and coastwise transport of terranes along the North American margin (e.g. Plafker et al., 1994). Cowen (1982, 2003) and Haeussler et al. (2003) propose two competing hypotheses for the formation and transport history of the Mesozoic-Tertiary Chugach-Prince William terrane that extends for at least 2...
متن کاملSuccession of Ultramafic Vegetation
The mam plant communities of ultramafic (serpentine) outcrops of a Mediterranean area in central Italy are described and their successional pathway discussed. Four vegetation stages are distinguished: a) an endemic garigue stage, with high percentage of exposed rocky soil belonging to Armerio-Alyssetum bertolonii; b) a garigue stage similar to the previous one but with several Mediterranean eve...
متن کاملAn odyssey of the green sea turtle: Ascension Island revisited.
Green turtles (Chelonia mydas) that nest on Ascension Island, in the south-central Atlantic, utilize feeding grounds along the coast of Brazil, more than 2000 km away. To account for the origins of this remarkable migratory behavior, Carr and Coleman [Carr, A. & Coleman, P. J. (1974) Nature (London) 249, 128-130] proposed a vicariant biogeographic scenario involving plate tectonics and natal ho...
