Petrogenesis of the Wadi Dib alkaline ring complex, Eastern Desert of Egypt
The Wadi Dib magmatic complex is the oldest known alkaline ring complex in the Egyptian part of the Pan-African orogenic belt. Rb-Sr isotope data for seven samples suggest a Vendian age of 578=k16 Ma, and a 87Sr/S6Sr initial ratio of 0.7048±0.0010. The igneous complex has a diameter of 2 km and was emplaced within granodioritic Pan-African host rocks at the intersection of two faults. It shows ...
متن کاملAbu Hamamid Neoproterozoic Alaskan-type complex, south Eastern Desert, Egypt
Abu Hamamid (AH) Neoproterozoic (Sm/Nd model age of 770 ± 20 Ma) mafic–ultramafic intrusion lies along a NE–SW fracture zone in the Shadli Metavolcanic Belt, south Eastern Desert, Egypt. AH intrusion is concentrically zoned with cumulate clinopyroxenebearing dunite core mantled by olivine clinopyroxenite, hornblende clinopyroxenite and hornblende gabbroic rim. The observed crystallization seque...
متن کاملStructural and tectonic evolution of the Umm Gheig/ El-Shush region, central Eastern Desert of Egypt
The rocks of the Wadi Umm Gheig/El-Shush area in the central Eastern Desert of Egypt form part of the Nubian Shield, a component of the Neoproterozoic Pan-African Orogeny. The rocks have been divided into three units: (i) low-grade metamorphosed rocks, which consist of metavolcanic rocks interleaved with slices of ophiolitic melange; (ii) high-grade metamorphic rocks, which consist of syn-tecto...
متن کاملPetrogenesis of the Bir Madi gabbro-diorite and tonalite-granodiorite intrusions, South Eastern Desert, Egypt: Implications fo
The Neoproterozoic rocks of the Bir Madi area, south Eastern Desert, comprise a metagabbrodiorite complex (GDC) and a tonalite-granodiorite suite (TGrS). The GDC has a weak tholeiitic to strong calc-alkaline character and is made up of olivine gabbro, hornblende gabbro, diorite and monzodiorite. The olivine gabbro is characterized by abundance of augite and labradorite with pseudomorphic serpen...
متن کاملThe Meatiq dome (Eastern Desert, Egypt) a Precambrian metamorphic core complex: petrological and geological evidence
The Meatiq basement, which is exposed beneath late Proterozoic nappes of supracrustal rocks in the Central Eastern Desert of Egypt, was affected by three metamorphic events. The ophiolite cover nappes show only the last metamorphic overprint. The M1 metamorphic event (T≥750 °C) is restricted to migmatized amphibolite xenoliths within the Um Ba∞anib orthogneiss in the structurally lowest parts o...
