The rocks of this study were collected from Baie Cipailles, Pte. Vareur, and Pte. Ramasse Tout and include syenite (SiO\u0000 2\u0000 = 60−63 wt%), microgranite (SiO\u0000 2\u0000 = 70−74 wt%), tuffaceous trachyte (SiO\u0000 2\u0000 = 64−65 wt%), and a basaltic xenolith (SiO\u0000 2\u0000 = 44 wt%; MgO = 6.4 wt%; Mg# = 47.6). The silicic rocks of this study are ferroan, metaluminous to weakly peralkaline, and classify as A1-type granitoids.

Jurassic red beds in this basin record the closure of the Paleo-Tethys Ocean and key information of the tectonic transition driven by the spreading of the Paleo-Pacific plate. We present sedimentary provenance analysis on these Jurassic red beds based on heavy mineral assemblages and detrital zircon geochronology. The results indicate that the strata in this basin were deposited after 214 Ma, and the Early Jurassic Lufeng Formation (Lufeng Fm.) mainly sourced from the west of the LFB with minor contributions from the western Yunnan. In contrast, the sedimentary provenance of the Middle Jurassic Chuanjie Formation (Chuanjie Fm.) and Laoluocun Formation (Laoluocun Fm.) shifted to the proximal ancient basement surrounding the basin and the east of the LFB. The regional unconformity between the Early and the Middle Jurassic may have resulted from the subduction of the Paleo-Pacific plate, jointly influenced by two tectonic domains. The sedimentary provenance shift in the Middle Jurassic may be related to the local uplift of the southwestern Yangtze Block caused by the subduction of the Paleo-Pacific plate. The tectonic regime transition associated with this highest peak of local uplift occurred at ∼170 Ma.","PeriodicalId":507891,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Geological Society","volume":" 47","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141678815","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we apply a multi-proxy approach to deep water Iapetus Ocean samples from Dob's Linn, Scotland, to determine oceanic redox conditions and changes in chemical weathering intensity. We document major redox fluctuations between anoxic ferruginous and oxic conditions during the first, end-Katian extinction pulse, while the end-Hirnantian extinction phase witnessed more persistent anoxia. These two episodes were separated by oxic conditions and a major, short-lived decline in chemical weathering during the Hirnantian glaciation, suggesting that while global cooling may have placed stress on certain biota, it was unlikely the cause of the extinction crisis. Late Hirnantian anoxia persisted into the Silurian, with widespread euxinia resulting in global drawdown of redox-sensitive trace metals. Recent studies have identified a mid-Katian biotic crisis and recovery prior to the LOME, although the precise stratigraphic position is not yet defined. The mid-Katian record at Dob's Linn shows a major redox change, with dysoxic to anoxic-ferruginous deep ocean waters giving way to well-oxygenated conditions at this time. However, links between the mid-Katian biotic crisis and these redox changes remain unclear.","PeriodicalId":507891,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Geological Society","volume":" 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141677908","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nonetheless, astrophysical observations of other galaxies in unison with spectroscopic measurements have produced a model for the Milky Way as a grand design, barred, spiral arm galaxy, with either two or four arms. Viewing through the plane of the Milky Way is not possible with any current astrophysical technique. However, perhaps terrestrial geology can help where current observations of our stellar environment cannot. During the orbit of our solar system around the galactic centre, Earth will have seen different cosmic surroundings, as a function of the solar system's orbit (240 km/s) that is faster than the spiral arm's density waves (210 km/s). Specifically, if the terrestrial impact record, or proxies for it, in some cryptic way reflect perturbations on the gravity field of the local solar system, then Earth may act as a geological orrery, with some interesting implications. Here we explore various models for the design of the Milky Way and compare these to geological proxies proposed by some as indicators for impact flux, through the deep time record within our planet. Isotope signatures in zircon are statistically coherent with a four-armed spiral model. However, even better correspondence is shown between the terrestrial isotopic record and more complex atomic hydrogen models of the galaxy.","PeriodicalId":507891,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Geological Society","volume":" 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141678843","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper presents new structural data and fluvial geomorphologic analysis from the Sparta Fault, and in particular considers the northern fault segment that is less well known. A new topographic profile on the well-developed post-glacial fault scarp from the northern strand indicates a 7.53 m offset over the last ∼15 ka, suggesting a throw rate of ∼0.5 mm/yr. The longitudinal profiles of rivers flowing across the fault allow elucidation of longer-term fault activity. Along the strike of the fault rivers exhibit up to two slope-break knickpoints, which decrease in height from south to north. These knickpoints are interpreted to have formed owing to the initiation of faulting and a subsequent slip-rate acceleration.

These altered impact melt clasts are now predominantly composed of clinochlore. Geothermometry of this clinochlore indicates formation temperatures within the ejecta blanket at 188-231°C, in agreement with previous estimates. A positive correlation between platinum group elements Ir, Pt, and Rh — apparently independent of Ni — indicates two geochemical sources for platinum group elements enrichment.
