Determining the “best age” of individual grains from Usingle bondPb detrital zircon analyses
remains problematic, with the current system generally relying on an arbitrary cut-off age for …

Magmatic arcs may play a major role in the initiation, behavior, and abandonment of intra‐
arc strike‐slip systems. Here we present zircon U‐Pb and (U‐Th)/He geochronology …

Recordings of earthquakes by a temporary deployment of 84 short period seismometers in
northern Chile were used to derive regional 3D seismic velocity models for the Taltal …

The first U-Pb hematite dates are reported for the Mantoverde and Carmen de Cobre iron
oxide copper-gold (IOCG) deposits in the northern segment of the Coastal Cordillera, Chile …

Displacement estimates along the Atacama fault system (AFS), a crustal-scale sinistral
structure that accommodated oblique convergence in the Mesozoic Coastal Cordillera arc …

Abstract The evolution of Grand Canyon started~ 85 Ma when the southwestern Hualapai
Plateau section of the Colorado Plateau began uplifting. This uplift initiated a northeast …

Abstract The Indiana Deposit corresponds to a Cu–Au (Mo–Co) fault-vein deposit located in
the Central Andes Coastal Cordillera Belt (∼ 27° S). It is hosted by strongly altered volcanic …

Abstract The Central Andean Forearc (26° S) structure has been debated for decades.
Extension, contraction, and strike-slip deformation are commonly proposed mechanisms to …

U-Pb geochronological studies based on LA-ICP-MS isotopic measurements often require a
profound understanding of the accuracy, precision, and preferred ages derived from this …

The compilation of a database of 225 strain/stress tensors (accounting for~ 4000 fault-striae
data pairs) combined with evidence of syntectonic strata, and a seismotectonic appraisal …
