Tertiary structural evolution of the Gangdese thrust system southeastern Tibet

Journal Article Yin, An ; Harrison, M. ; Ryerson, F.J. ; ... - Journal of Geophysical Research

Structural and thermochronological investigations of southern Tibet (Xizang) suggest that intracontinental thrusting has been the dominant cause for formation of thickened crust in the southernmost Tibetan plateau since late Oligocene. Two thrust systems are documented in this study: the north dipping Gangdese system (GTS) and the younger south dipping Renbu-Zedong system (RZT). West of Lhasa, the Gangdese thrust juxtaposes the Late Cretaceous forearc basin deposits of the Lhasa Block (the Xigaze Group) over the Tethyan sedimentary rocks of the Indian plate, whereas east of Lhasa, the fault juxtaposes the Late Cretaceous-Eocene, Andean-type arc (the Gangdese batholith) over Tethyan sedimentary rocks.more »« less

Evidence for Cyclical Fractional Crystallization, Recharge, and Assimilation in Basalts of the Kimama Drill Core, Central Snake River Plain, Idaho: 5.5-Million-Years of Petrogenesis in a Mid-crustal Sill Complex

Journal Article Potter, Katherine E. ; Shervais, John W. ; Christiansen, Eric H. ; ... - Frontiers in Earth Science

Basalts erupted in the Snake River Plain of central Idaho and sampled in the Kimama drill core link eruptive processes to the construction of mafic intrusions over 5.5 Ma. Cyclic variations in basalt composition reveal temporal chemical heterogeneity related to fractional crystallization and the assimilation of previously-intruded mafic sills. A range of compositional types are identified within 1,912 m of continuous drill core: Snake River olivine tholeiite (SROT), low K SROT, high Fe-Ti, and evolved and high K-Fe lavas similar to those erupted at Craters of the Moon National Monument.

Formation and emplacement ages of the Masirah ophiolite, Sultanate of Oman

Journal Article Smewing, J.D. ; Abbotts, I.L. ; Dunne, L.A. ; ... - Geology; (USA)

Hornblende separates from gabbros and biotite separates from crosscutting potassic granites of the Masirah ophiolite have been analyzed by conventional K-Ar techniques. The gabbros have Late Jurassic-Early Cretaceous ages (126-158 Ma), and the granites have broadly similar ages (124-146 Ma). Because the gabbros are likely to give ophiolite formation ages and the granites ophiolite emplacement ages, it can be concluded that the Masirah ophiolite was emplaced very soon after formation. The Late Jurassic-Early Cretaceous ages contrast with the middle Cretaceous ages (90-95 Ma) of the Semail ophiolite, confirming earlier suggestions that the Masirah ophiolite cannot simply be a right-laterally displacedmore »« less

Lithospheric structure of the Qiangtang Terrane, northern Tibetan Plateau, from complete regional waveform modeling: Evidence for partial melt

Journal Article Rodgers, A.J. ; Schwartz, S.Y. - Journal of Geophysical Research

We report models of {ital P} and {ital S} wave velocity and attenuation for the the crust and uppermost mantle of the Qiangtang Terrane, northern Tibetan Plateau, inferred by fitting reflectivity synthetic seismograms to observed complete regional waveforms. The data are three-component broadband seismograms recorded by the 1991{endash}1992 IRIS-PASSCAL (Incorporated Research Institutions for Seismology - Program for Array Seismic Studies of the Continental Lithosphere) Tibetan Plateau Experiment and Global Seismic Network stations in the region. The Qiangtang Terrane has thick crust (65{plus_minus}5thinspkm) with {ital P} and {ital S} wave velocities of 6.1{endash}6.3 and 3.34{endash}3.43 km/s, respectively, yielding an anomalously highmore »« less
