Abstract The Tauride block in Turkey is a peri-Gondwana, Cadomian-type terrane that rifted
from the Afro-Arabian margin of Gondwana in the Permo-Triassic and re-accreted to Arabia …

Abstract New geochemical, Sr/Nd isotope and zircon U–Pb LA-ICP-MS data from the Derik
Volcanics in the Southeast Anatolian Autochthone Belt of Turkey are consistent with an …

Abstract The Eastern Mediterranean is a land-locked basin, a remnant of the Neotethys
Ocean. It was formed in the Permian–Triassic as a result of the drift of the Tauride block from …

A new petrogenetic model is presented for genesis of the Late Neoproterozoic meta-granitic
rocks in the central and southern Menderes Massif (MM). This study evaluates the Sr and Nd …

Detrital U-Pb age peaks and εHf (t) and T DM (Hf) of peri-Gondwanan units of S Turkey
indicate that they may have been derived from Neoproterozoic igneous suites in the Sinai …

The age, emplacement, and metamorphic history of the garnet amphibolitic and
retrogressed eclogitic slices in the Menderes Massif (Eastern Aegean) have been a matter of …

The putative Jambil meta-carbonatites of Swat, northern Pakistan, occur as discrete
intrusions into the Proterozoic Manglaur Formation, which are difficult to be distinguished …

ABSTRACT The Early Palaeozoic was an important period in the geologic evolution of the
South China block (SCB), marking the intracontinental orogen in the Wuyi-Yunkai region …

A large volume of Early Cretaceous volcanic rocks are exposed in the central Lhasa
