The relationship of the Late Cretaceous amphibolite-facies Akrotiri and Vari subunits on the Greek islands of Tinos and Syros to similar occurrences in the Aegean is not fully understood, but a correlation with the Asterousia Crystalline Complex on Crete and corresponding rocks in the Upper Cycladic Unit on other islands of the archipelago is a pla...

This study illustrates the field relationships of jadeitite-bearing block-in-matrix sequences on Syros and Tinos, Cycladic Blueschist Unit, and adds additional U–Pb zircon ages for jadeitites to the geochronological database. The results confirm the importance of Cretaceous ( c. 80 Ma) and Eocene ( c. 50 Ma) processes in their geological evolution....

U-Pb and Rb-Sr geochronology has been used to constrain robust ages for leucosomes and high-grade gneisses from the Anjul area in the eastern part of the Lut block, Iran. The new results do not support the previously suggested Proterozoic age for this occurrence, but instead reveal the importance of Jurassic and Cretaceous magmatic and/or metamorph...

The Sistan suture zone, eastern Iran, exposes a well-preserved accretionary complex that formed by the closure of a Neotethyan ocean basin between the Central Iranian Lut block and the Afghan microcontinent. Mélange sequences include tectonic slices of adakitic plagiogranitic rocks and rare jadeitite. Adakitic whole rock characteristics , compositi...

This study corroborates interpretations suggesting that the Makrotantalon Unit on Andros represents a tectonic slice with Pelagonian affinity in the nappe stack of the Cycladic Blueschist Unit. Previously reported Cretaceous ⁴⁰ Ar– ³⁹ Ar dates of a garnet-glaucophane schist from the Makrotantalon Unit could not be reproduced by Rb–Sr geochronology,...

This study aims at clarifying the relationship between the Cape Steno mélange, southern Andros, and the main tectonic units of the Attic-Cycladic Crystalline Belt. Jurassic protolith ages and geochemical characteristics indicate a Pelagonian affinity and point to a correlative relationship with the Tsiknias Ophiolite on Tinos Island. However, jadei...

In this study we establish a time frame for metamorphic processes affecting Neotethyan suture zones at the northern (Sabzevar) and southern (Makran) margin of the Central Iranian Microcontinent. For this purpose, we have applied Rb–Sr and U–Pb geochronology to blueschist‐ and amphibolite facies rocks from these occurrences. So far, no isotopic ages...

We report new petrological and geochronological data for eclogitic rocks of the Pouébo Eclogite Mélange (PEM) in the New Caledonian high-pressure/low-temperature (HP/LT) belt. Pseudosections were calculated to link newly determined LuHf dates with P-T conditions corresponding to garnet growth, which started on the prograde path and continued into t...

Metamorphic rocks of the Central Indonesian Accretionary Collision Complex are exposed in widely scattered occurrences on the islands of Java, Sulawesi, and Kalimantan. Their relationship to one or more subduction zones is controversial which can partly be explained by insufficient geochronological investigation. Using RbSr geochronology we have da...

Ophicalcites exposed on the island of Tinos, Greece, occur as ellipsoidal bodies within greenschist-facies phyllites of the Upper Cycladic Unit. Close to their outcrops, blocks of serpentinites, metabasic rocks and metasediments were identified, implying a tectonically dismembered ophiolitic sequence in the study area. The ophicalcites comprise bre...

The timeframe of eclogite- and blueschist-facies metamophism in the central Indonesian region is poorly defined. Relative to its geographic extent, the regional coverage of isotopic age data is insufficient for an unambiguous interpretation of the geologic evolution of the Central Indonesian Accretionary Collision Complex. This study reports new ge...

Pre-Cenozoic blueschist- and eclogite-facies rocks occur widely scattered in the central Indonesian region, possibly representing lateral equivalents of the same subduction zone. High-pressure/low-temperature (HP/LT) metamorphism is thought to have occurred during the Early Cretaceous, which however is only constrained by K–Ar ages. This study is p...

Combining high‐spatial resolution geochronology and geochemistry of zircon provides constraints on the geodynamic evolution of the Zagros orogen.

We describe a largely unknown listvenite deposit from Tinos, Cyclades, Greece and combine field observations with petrographic, bulk-rock geochemical, isotope (Sr, O, C), and Rb–Sr geochronological data. The volumetrically small listvenite occurrences are associated with metabasic phyllites, talc schists, meta-gabbros, ophicalcites and serpentinite...

The south Ardestan plutonic rocks constitute major outcrops in the central part of Iran’s Cenozoic magmatic belt and encompass a wide compositional spectrum from gabbro to granodiorite. U–Pb laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) dating of zircon three granodiorites yielded ages of 24.6 ± 0.1, 24.6 ± 0.1, and 24.5 ±...

The Esfandagheh region of the Zagros Orogenic Belt is an ideal area to address many aspects of continental convergence between Arabia and Eurasia, including incorporation of Late Neoproterozoic (Ediacaran) basement, subduction–related magmatism and the formation of HP/LT rocks. The rock units exposed here represent a presumably Jurassic magmatic ar...

A complex high-pressure/low-temperature vein system that cross-cuts eclogitic host rocks of the Pouébo Eclogite Melange (northern New Caledonia) records the prograde blueschist-to-eclogite transition and associated formation of garnet–quartz–phengite veins.

Geochemical analyses in combination with Rb–Sr (whole-rock, phengite, biotite) and U–Pb zircon ages provide important constraints on the magmatic, metamorphic and structural evolution of the Śniez2nik and Gierałtów gneisses from the Orlica–Śniez2nik complex (West Sudetes). These two gneisses have been considered to represent distinct petrogenetic u...

U–Pb zircon ages of five metasedimentary rocks from the Lower Unit on Tinos Island (Cycladic blueschist belt, Greece) document supply of detritus from various Proterozoic, Paleozoic and Mesozoic source rocks as well as post-depositional metamorphic zircon formation. Essential features of the studied zircon populations are Late Cretaceous (70–80 Ma)...

The Attic–Cycladic Crystalline Belt in the central Aegean region represents a major tectono-stratigraphic unit of the Hellenides. The essential geological, magmatic and tectono-metamorphic features are well documented. Unresolved questions concern the time of sediment accumulation and litho- and/or tectono-stratigraphic relationships across the stu...

Compared to the well-documented Cenozoic magmatic and metamorphic rocks of the Cyclades, Aegean Sea, Greece, the geodynamic context of older meta-igneous rocks occurring in the marble-schist sequences and melanges of the Cycladic Blueschist Unit is as yet not fully understood. Here, we report O-Hf isotopic compositions of zircons ranging in age fro...

Siliciclastic metasediments from the islands of Samos and Syros, Cycladic blueschist unit, Greece, were studied to determine maximum sedimentation ages. Four samples from the Ampelos unit on Samos yielded age distribution spectra that range from ~320 Ma to ~3.2 Ga with a dominance of Cambrian–Neoproterozoic zircons (500–1,100 Ma). The youngest well...

The focus of this study is on meta-ophiolitic rocks from Samos and the Attic–Cycladic Crystalline Belt, Greece.

The Attic-Cycladic crystalline belt in the central Aegean region records a complex structural and metamorphic evolution that documents Cenozoic subduction zone processes and exhumation. A prerequisite to develop an improved tectono-metamorphic understanding of this area is dating of distinct P–T–D stages. To evaluate the geological significance of...

This study focuses on the status of the Makrotantalon Unit (Andros, Greece) within the framework of the Cycladic nappe stack. We document unambiguous evidence that this unit has experienced blueschist-facies metamorphism and identify previously unknown lawsonite +/- pumpellyite assemblages in glaucophane-free metasediments. The position of the pres...

Most previously dated zircons in high-pressure mélange blocks and associated matrix rocks from Tinos and Syros (Cyclades), Greece, yielded ion microprobe (SHRIMP II) U-Pb ages of ca. 80 Ma. In many cases it remains unclear whether the zircons are igneous or metamorphic/hydrothermal in origin. Oxygen and hafnium isotope ratios in the dated zircons h...

The Cycladic blueschist belt, Greece, is mostly submerged below sea level and regional correlations are difficult to establish. Marbles are widespread within the belt and locally used as marker horizons to subdivide monotonous schist sequences. However, owing to the lack of distinctive petrographic characteristics, the marbles have not been used fo...

The provenance and exhumation history of paragneisses that enclose the 471–458 Ma eclogites in the Caledonian Jæren nappe, SW Norway, were constrained by performing U–Pb analysis on detrital zircon and Rb–Sr dating of mica.

Unieżnik complex, Bohemian Massif. Under favourable circumstances such data may help to unravel protolith ages and yet-undetermined aspects of the metamorphic evolution, for example, the time span over which eclogite-facies conditions were attained. By means of ion-probe and laser ablation techniques, a comprehensive database was compiled for sampl...

Most large-scale deformational and metamorphic features in the Scandinavian Caledonides occurred during Scandian times (430-395 Ma), which involved the collision between the proto-continents Laurentia and Baltica and the deep (ca. 200 km) subduction of the Baltoscandian margin. In spite of this pervasive regional metamorphism, some crustal fragment...

The Scandinavian Caledonides contain several non-cogenetic eclogite-bearing terranes that were meta-morphosed before the main orogenic stage in Scandian time (430–395 Ma). Although petrological and geochro-nological data from these terranes have provided essential information on the geodynamic history of the Caledonian orogenic cycle, the general p...

The Orlica–Śnieżnik complex (OSC) is a key geological element of the eastern Variscides and mainly consists of amphibolite facies orthogneisses and metasedimentary rocks. Sporadic occurrences of eclogites and granulites record high-pressure (HP) to ultrahigh-pressure (UHP) metamorphic conditions. A multimethod geochronological approach (40Ar–39Ar,...

In order to decipher crustal genesis and evolution as well as to refine the metamorphic history of the Kerala Khondalite Belt (KKB), southernmost India, we have applied U–Pb monazite, Rb–Sr biotite-feldspar dating and Nd isotope geochemistry. The KKB belonged to an eastern Gondwana mobile belt that underwent ultra-high temperature metamorphism at P...

In the lower main unit of the Attic-Cycladic crystalline belt (Greece), white mica geochronology (Rb–Sr, K–Ar, 40Ar–39Ar) has established the timing of at least two metamorphic events: well-preserved high-pressure/low-temperature (HP/LT) rocks yielded Eocene ages (c. 53–40 Ma) and their greenschist facies counterparts provided Oligocene–Miocene dat...

Two stages of granitic magmatism occurred during the Pan-African evolution of the Kerala Khondalite Belt (KKB) in southern India. Granitic gneisses were derived from porphyritic granites, which intruded prior to the main stage of deformation and peak-metamorphism. Subsequently, leucogranites and leucotonalites formed during fluid-absent melting and...

The Maronia pluton is the youngest of the Tertiary plutons that occurred in Thrace. Three rock groups have been distinguished: a basic, an intermediate and an acid one. Based on geochemical and isotopie characteristics, the basic group probably represents a magma that isotopically equilibrated with the intermediate group at a certain point of its e...

In the Attic-Cycladic crystalline belt (Greece), white mica geochronology (Rb-Sr, K-Ar, Ar-Ar) has established time constraints for at least two metamorphic events: well-preserved high-pressure/low-temperature rocks yielded Eocene ages (c. 50-40 Ma); their greenschist-facies counterparts provided Oligocene-Miocene dates (c. 25-20 Ma). Previous stud...

At the NE margin of the Bohemian Massif, granulites occur in the Zlote Unit which is exposed in the border region between Poland and the Czech Republic [e.g. 1, 3].
