The amalgamation of southwestern Gondwana during the late Neoproterozoic
Brasiliano/Pan-African orogenic cycle involved the tectonic interaction of the Congo …

Petrologists are still trying to solve the 'anorthosite problem', which was first identified by NL
Bowen in 1917 and revolves around the uncertainty surrounding the petrogenesis, tectonic …

Massif-type anorthosites, enormous and enigmatic plagioclase-rich cumulate intrusions
emplaced into Earth's crust, formed in large numbers only between 1 and 2 billion years …

Amazonia played an important role in the assembly of Rodinia, and that its incorporation into
this supercontinent led to continent–continent collision (s) with the Grenville Orogen of …

The location of the Congo-São Francisco (CSF) craton, one of the largest cratons in
Proterozoic paleogeography, has been poorly constrained for the supercontinent Nuna …

The crustal evolution of the Angolan Shield (AS) remains poorly constrained. To address
this, we analysed U-Pb and Lu-Hf isotopes in detrital and igneous zircons to investigate the …

The occurrence of massif-type anorthosite intrusions is a widespread Proterozoic
phenomenon. They are usually associated with gabbroic, charnockitic, and granitic rocks …

Abstract Anorthosite-mangerite-charnockite-granite (AMCG) suites form large batholiths
emplaced during the Proterozoic Eon. Magma source (s), emplacement mechanisms, and …

Neoproterozoic metasedimentary rocks in the foreland domains of the Kaoko–Dom
Feliciano–Gariep orogenic system record sedimentation from the breakup of Rodinia to the …

Abstract The Kunene Complex (KC) represents a large Mesoproterozoic igneous body,
mainly composed of anorthosites and gabbroic rocks that extends from SW Angola to NW …
